PROPOSED COMPUTATION
RATE ORDERED REDUCED

Proposed increases in Communication pas
senger fares by the leading railways OPP
Grating in and out of New York city to-
day were held by the interstate commerce
commission to be reasonable, generally,
except in the case of the Pennsylvania
railroad, whose communication rates are
declared excessive and are ordered re-
duced.
Against the Pennsylvania railroad a
specific order is made by the commission
requiring it to desist from exact,ng it's
present communication fares to and from
New York city by September /, and for
not less than two years thereafter. For
a monthly sixty-ride ticket between New
York city and New Brunswick. N. j..
the Communication fare is fixed at not to
exceed $40 Ut is now $12) and the road
is ordered to readjust its Communication
rates to and from other points in con-
formity with that fare.
In particular instances on the Erie the
Lackawanna and West Shore lines. the
commission finds that the Communication
materially the charge Of other roads for
substantially the same service No order
is made in respect to these isolated cases,
however. but the commission suggests to
the roads the advisability of 30 read
iusting the rates between New York and
the few points referred to as to place
them on a parity with their general COM
mutation fare schedule.
The opinion of the commission was pre-
pared by Commissioner Harlan and Is
the unanimous expression of that body.

THE KINGDOM OF SPAIN,
X-SOGAL LIFE.
BY Frederic J.Haskin.

social classes together for diversion is
the bullhght. There are horse races In
the chief cities and racing is fashionable
In Madrid, but the Plaza de Toros' ia
the one place at which the visitor may
count upon seeing all of Spanish society
/ from the king and his English queen
down to the newsboy who has saved his
coppers for months to buy q seat in the
| sunny section of the amphitheater. The
first great bullfght OF the season. usually
held in late March or early April, brings
1900 or $1,000 persons to the Plaza de
Toros, and Is as we'll attended by the
royalty rank and fashion as an English
Derby.
Queen Ena has not realized the hopes
OF the more advanced Spaniards. who
predicted that she would not attend or
countenance bullfghts. She has not
only attended them and witnessed with
complacency the disgusting spectacle of
cruelty. but has awarded prizes to the
most accomplished butchers at the close
Of the days festival of blood. The hos
pitality and informality of Spanish homes
atone for many faults of the nation,
but after witnessing the splendor Of the
court of this impoverished country, and
the brutality of the bull ring, one real
ICES that Spain is hardly to be spoken OF
as highly civilized and really en-
lightened country.

THIS LID ON TO STAY.
Patent Cement on Battleship Turbine
nefies Efforts of Repairers.

The top Of one Of the big turbines OF
the battleship North Dakota is stuck so
tightly to it's casing that the New York
navy yard workmen have been working
five weeks in vain in the effort to pry 1t
off The engine has been working badly
and it is necessary to get at the interior
mechanism. To make 1t steam tight the
cover was cemented on with a patented
compound which has apparently become
as hard as the iron casing, and already
some splinters have been knocked off by
the steel wedges which have been driven
into the joint.
1t was thought that the repairs could
be effected within two weeks, but no one
can tell when the ship will be ready for
service again.

The large reduction in the number of
troops In Texas has caused the abandon
ment OF the original plan to rotate the
various major generals in tours of duty
there. At present only q brigade remains
while it Is not contemplated to reduce the
present force. the brigade is scarcely of
sufficient Importance to justify the assign
ment OF major general to that com

advantage that Spanish society presents
to those who are not rich is that it en-
tails far less expense than an equal
amount of social activity in equally
select circles in most other countries.
There is no bridge playing, and women
do not find gambling funds a necessity.
Refreshments are usually simple and

The refreshments served by a Spanish
matron to her friends duplicate those
served at the cafes in Madrid that are

Chocolate, almost as thick as marmalade
is served in tiny cups and eaten with q
spoon or by dipping bits Of cake in the
cup. A sort of meringue that dissolves
in a glass Of water and flavors 1t with
vanilla is q favorite, and there are other
inexpensive CONNECTIONS or soft drinks. y
Punch, with a stick in it,; cocktails and
other intoxicating beverages are prac-
tically unknown as refreshments in
Spain, even among men.
At a cafe after the theater q cup q
chocolate and q piece of cake constitute
the routine order, and no one thinks OF
proposing an alcoholic beverage. Light

pass the time while others are upon the
ballroom floor. But the American Is sur

OF gentlemen addressing "senoritas" by
their first names upon the evening of their
flrst meeting. What strikes him as Inn
pertinence or an evidence of slipshod
manners, is merely national custom.
