A CHICAGO SITUATION.

There is a good deal of wind in the windy city, but that doesn't seem to help the Chicago Postal Pneumatic Tube company, which has a twenty year franchise with about fifteen more years to run. By it's terms the entire plant of the company, which is requir- ed to pay five per cent. of its gross receipts to the city, becomes the city's property, free from all inoumbrances, at the end of the twenty-year fran chise period But investigations of &C., countants employed by the city comp troller show that thus far the corpor- ation, which is a branch of the Amer ican Pneumatic Service company ot Boston, has barely paid operating ex- penses. There have been no returns I from which interest on the original in vestment could be paid or & sinking fund set aside against the day wher the outstanding bonds Tall que 1T these circumstances the demand of th' federal authorities that the compan! fulfill it's contract to extend its service and the urgent request of business men, among them representatives 0 the Chicago Association of Commerce | that large increases of facilities for tn

The second mistake was made when it was abandoned for substitute which means nothing. It will be a third mistake if an agitation is begun for its restoration at all pub lie banquets.
 It was a mistake to have invited Governor Woodruff of Connecticut and Governor Proctor of Vermont to at tend the annual dinner of the New York society of New England and ther precede their toasts by so many toast' that when their turn came there wal no audience to listen to them. | their presence was desired it should have been the duty of some one to set that they were treated with courtesy A little intellectual liquidation appears to be needed as well as financial liquid ation.

sAnDou cR1rrc1zEs THE CRITICS

A news dispatch which tells of suit brought by Dramatist Victorien Sardou against the Matin of Paris, in which damages mounting well up into the thousands are demanded, is not with out it's humorous side. The custom prevails abroad, it seems, of giving the critics fres access to the dress rehear- sals of new productions The critic of Paris famous morning daily must have forgotten, in the usual rush attendant upon newspaper life, to hold up his copy until the morning following the first public performance. We would judge that the premature criticism of M. Sardous play must have been un- favorable; otherwise he would not have cared how early 1t appeared, ir all probability.
 But the incident has its suggestion If newspaper criticisms of first nigh performances are of such weight witt
 the public that an adverse one may lead, as in the present instance, to { suit for $10,00O damages, they are arti
 cles that should be written with all tht
 care and thought that man can givt
 them. Our American theatrical man
 agers should see the point of the mat

 less that of the reading public, t
