FOREIGN MARKETS.

LONDON. April 1.-THE Easter hon-
days were responsible for the light volum =
of business on the stock exchange early in
the week. and unfavorable reports from
Morocco and Mexico occasioned nervous
ness and declining tendency later. HON
rails started higher on good traffic pros
poets, but the reduction of the bull -
count prior to the settlement wiped oui
the Improvement. New loans. both actu !
and prospective offset the effect of easie
monetary conditions, and made gilt
edged securities lower on balance. Con
soils declined half point as public sup
port continued light, partly owing To the
fact that money is being used i'm other
directions. The Moroccan trouble brought
Paris offerings in foreign shares, AMI

IS TESTING
STORAGE BATTERY CAR
In Operation on Washington,
Spa Spring and Gretta
Road "Tripper."

An Edison storage battery car that will
seat twenty passenger and maintain a
speed of twenty-five miles an hour when
the batteries are fully charged IS being
operated on the Washington. Spa Spring
and Gretta railway as 'tripper." morn
ing and evening, according to E recent re-
port of Secretary Eddy to the District
electric railway commission. He also re-
ported to the commission that another
storage battery car of the same general
design. with seating capacity of thirty
two passengers. has been contracted for
and will be delivered about June I.
THE distinctive and most Interesting
feature of this car says Mr. Eddy. lis
the fact that it is operated by means Of
power obtained from storage batteries To-
Gated under the seats within the car. The
battery was invented by Thomas A. Edi-
SON
''The car is mounted on single truck.
is about twenty-five feet long over all
and has a seating capacity of about
twenty adults. 1t is fitted with longi-
tudlnal seats and somewhat resembles
the pay-Within type of car in that there
are no end bulkheads. The platforms
are provided with folding doors on either
side. These doors. however. are not nee
essarily kept normally closed and are
not controlled by d mechanical device.
as are the doors on the pay-within cars.
Another Car Ordered.
Another interesting feature Of this car
is that in place of straps there is pro-
vidcd on each side of the car. suspended
from the ceiling. horizontal steel bar
intended to he located at a convenient
height for the average person 10 hold
fast to. but as a matter of fact in this
particular car these rails are somewhat
high. being located six feet above the
floor. AT two intermediate points be-
tween the ends of the car there also
located vertical rods extending from the
horizontal rod to the floor. These are
standing passengers. All the rods are
covered with sort of enamel preparation
that they may be readily cleaned and the
effect is that of increased sanitation Of
the car
AT the present time this car is being
operated as tripper i'm service from Is
to 10 am and from 3 to 9 pm A small
charging station has been located at each
end OF the line, where the batteries are
charged for from three to five minutes
during the 1ay-oVer al the end of each
trip. This charge is sufficient to keep
the car in continual operation. The car
complete weighs about 5000 pounds
Mr.. Eddy says he is Informed by the
superintendent OIL the WASHINGTON. spa
Spring and Gretta Railway Company
that the company has recently contract
ed for another car to be operated by
storage batteries. 1t will be delivered
June |, and will be of the same general
design as the one now in operation. but
considerably larger, having a seating ca
pacity Of thirtytwo passengers. This car
will be fitted with eight cross seats and
for short longitudinal seats. two at each
end. 1t will be equipped with four twelve
horsepower motors and a correspondence
larger battery Of the same general de-
sign as that on the car now in operation,
but Of somewhat improved type.

Discusses Tariff of 1894.

Senator Williams spoke of the tariff OF
1894 in terms of sharp criticism, saying ii
had been a great load on the democratic
party. He said the problems in which
the great industrial corporations are con-
cerned could be solved only b. democratic
legislation and said that democratic leg
islation means a restriction of legislation
rather than an addition to existing laws
LAS near as possible, l believe The dem
ocratic party will now travel back to
the pure JefferSonian principle of not
taxing the people except for the henetlt
of all the people The only justitiable
taxation Is a levy for the public need.
and there should he no money taken
from the people except for the benefit OF
the people.
Some day the democratic party will
be called on to settle the coming clash
between capital and labor. The party will
not overlook the rights of property. but
when the clash comes the democratic
party will give preference to human
rights and human liberty. The sheet
anchor of the republic is Jeffersonian de-
mocracy. 1 do not like the labels pro-
gressve' and conservative democrats. !
do not know what those things mean. \
professional conservative person or a
professional progressive person reminds
me of a donkey. The real democracy
should be progressive where it is neces-
sary to go ahead, and conservative where
1t is necessary to put on brakes Or stand
STILL and that is the kind of politics to
find a home in the hearts OF the people"
Committee in Charge.

charge of the program was composed
