THE PROPOSED OAS LOAN.
The ordinance for the creation of a loan of
half a million dollars to be expended at the
discretion of the Gas Trustees was passed to
& third reading yesterday in Common Conn.
Oil, all the objeetiona to it being disregarded
in a manner giving color to the strong sus
picion that has been aroused that its final pas
Bag is a set-up job, and that the gas ring
Vill get the money, to do what they please
with it. The arguments yesterday in favor of
the ordinance were the same as those ad
vanoed in the Seleot branch to push it
though, and unwilling members were urged
to vote for this enormous addition to the
city's indebtedness under the threat that a
portion of the city would be left in darkness
if the demands of the gas ring were not com
plied with. It is not creditable that Councils
should submit to being told to stand and
deliver in this style, and we hope that when
the ordinance again comes up for considera
tion the independent members will fight it to
the last, and resist the imposition of auoh a
burden upon the tax-payers, unless there is
some assurance that the money will be ex
pended in a proper manner, so that the pub
lic will get the benefit of every dollar
of it. It is high time that
a determined effort was made
to break up the gas ring aud for the oity to
obtain the actual control of its property; for
the circumstances under which this loan is
demanded prove very conclusively that the
Gas Trustees have come to consider the
members of Councils not as the representa
tives of the people, but as the servants of
the ring, who are bound to do the
bidding of their real masters. There are
men in Councils wno do not consent to
this theory, but they have never yet
made the sturdy opposition to the Board of
Trustees that they should. These men can
give the gas ring a great deal of trouble, if
they choose to do so; and if they will reso
lutely resist every demand for money that is
not aocompanied by estimates and specifica
tions, they will at least oblige those who now
arrogate to themselves the right to ex
pend the publio funds in secret to be
more careful how they destroy the
property of the city and then ask for
half a million dollars at a time to repair the
damages they have done. The strength of
the gas ring lies in the subserviency of
Councils, and we believe, in spite of the bad
bargain by which the oontrol of the gas
works was taken out of the hands of the city
government, Councils can be the masters
instead of the servants of the trus
tees, if they choose. It is all non
sense to pretend that the oity is
obliged to pay the gas ring whatever sums
may be demanded, and if it is neeessary to
create a loan of half a million dollars this
year, there is no reason why one for ten mil
lions may not be necessary next year. The
trustees destroyed the gas works at Twenty
third and Market streets without consulting
with any one and without authority from
those, who ought to have a voice in suoh a
matter. As the deed was their own
they should be made to bear
all the responsibilities, and Councils
are under no obligation whatever to appro
priate money for new works. If the publio
is inconvenienced the trustees will be alone
to blame, and there will be suoh a clamor
raised against the management of the gts
works that a radical reform can scarcely ba
avoided. If new works were necessary ths
consent of Councils should have been ob
tained before the old ones were destroyed,
and the members of Common Council will
not sustain their own dignity nor serve the
I jj now pendiDg. From the appearance of things
WfJhave but little expectation of the defeat of
LfifeJ&an. but we sincere! v hoDe that it will ba
A?F3?&,' ... .. . r

Columbus Convention passed, withoat oppo
sition, a resolution favoring a strictly revenue
tariff and opposing the protective theory; and
it thus avowed a resolute determination to
continue unceasing warfare upon the varied
industrial interests involving the welfare of
this Commonwealth. The Buckeyes also
adopted a reselntien favoriig a modified form
of repmdiation by insisting that the bonds of
the Government shall be redeemed in green
backs instead of gold; and the Ohio plat
form, as a whole, is a better expression of the
real sentiments of a majority of the Demo

latter put forth for deoeptive purposes.
OPPOSITION TO THE NEW TREATY.
The parties to the treaty framed by the Joint
High Commission are the United States and
the United Kingdom, and their ratification,
only, is essential to the enforcement of all
its leading provisions. So far as this country
is concerned the treaty has been ratified
already, by the favorable action of the
Senate. So far as Great Britain is interested,
the ratification depends upon the
Queen, or her Privy Counoil,
which is practically the English Cabinet. The
only essential requisite of its final ratification
is the formal agreement of Mr. Gladstone
and his associates to provisions which they
have assented to in advance. And the only
way in which the treaty can now be success
fully assailed is by such a ferocious attack in
the British Tarliament as would lead to a
change in the Ministry or a radical
change in the attitude of the present
Ministry. While this is true of the treaty as
a whole, that document stipulates that a por
tion of its provisions, relating exclusively to
questions affecting Canada, the fisheries, tto.,
shall not go into effect before appropriate
legislation is made by the American Con
gress and by the Parliament of the Canadian
New Dominion, etc. Boom is thus unavoid
ably left for a little subordinate discussion,
and tho Kanucks ara trying to make
the most of it. Ben. Butler has
demonstrated that if the troaty is fully carried
out it will well-nigh ruin the Yankee fisher
men, while the Kanucks are working them
selves into the belief that their interests have
been sacrificed. Of the exact merits of this
war of rival fishermen we are not apprised,
and it is not likely that the world will ascer
tain exactly, or ever care to ascertain, whether
the Blue-n,oses or Ben. Butler's proteges have
got the best of a bargain which is probably
fair enough for all practical purposes to both
parties. The treaty will be a treaty in spite
of anything the Kanucks or Ben. Butler can
do or say.
THE EOUSE Off1 CORRECTION.
The Committee on the House of Correction
yesterday made a report giving the result of
their investigation into the quality of the
stone being used in the foundations. The
investigation was ordered at the instance of
the Citizens' Association, who intimated that
rotten and worthless stone was being
used, in violation of the builder's contract
and to the detriment of the structure
now being put up near Bridesburg to be used
as a nouse of Correction. After a careful
inquiry into the matter, and a personal in
spection, the committee came to the conclu
sion that the accusation was based upon a
mistake, the persons making it having been
misled by finding pieces of soft stone which
had been rejected by the builders ly
ing about the plaoe, and their report,
in making a statement of the facts
of the case, completely exonerates
the contractor, Mr. R. J. Dobbins, from
blame, and asserts that he is laying the foun
dation with good material and in a substantial
and proper manner. Mr. Dobbins is a
builder of the highest reputation, under
whose superintendence some of the finest
edifices that have adorned Philadelphia of
late years have been put up, and he is par
ticularly noted for the excellent quality
of his work. Suoh a man could not
afford to slight suoh a job as
the House of Correction, and it is for his in
terest as well as for that of the publio that
the building should be erected in the most
substantial manner. The investigation on
the part of the committee was a very proper
one, as it is the duty of Councils to see that
the contractor does not slight his work, and
if the same vigilance was always shown, the
publio interests would not suffer as they
sometimes do. The report of the committee
gives an assurance that the work on the
House of Correction is being properly per
formed, and that not only will we ere long
have an institution much needed, but that it
will be constructed in an entirely satisfactory
manner.

THIS
NEW ORLEANS, MOBILE,
AND TEXAS
ItAILHOAD COMPANY
Are building a trunk: lln, connecting Kew Orleans
with Mobile on the east, and giving the
ONLY RAILROAD CONNECTION
Between the former city and the great and most
productive State of Texas on the west, the total dis
tance from Mobile to Houston being 478 miles.
The Company la composed of strong Northern
capitalists, who have already expended nearly TEN
MILLION DOLLARS or their own fands In the
construction of the line. They have built about S25
miles from Mobile westward, and secured by pur
chase of securities and made provision for the
thorough repair and equipment of the 108 miles con
stituting the Texas division ; leaving but 140 miles
to be built
To Compiete tho Entire Road.
It Is believed that no other railroad corporation In
the country has ever made so large an expenditure
from Its own means before oiTerlng any of Us secu
rities to the public
The Company now offer for sale the
Eight Per Cent. Mortgage Honda
upon the Louisiana division of 820 nudes from New
Orleans to the Sablue River. This wfH pYtfcably be
the most valuable portion of the whole line, as it will
be the only rail communication, by whloh the enor
mous productions of Texas can reach the Southern
metropolis.
So important is this road considered to Louisiana,
that the State has made very liberal grants Id aid of
the enterprise, by direct donations, by endorsement
of Its bonds, and by subscription to the stouk of the
Company, amounting In all to over eight million
dollars.
The Bonds now offered are of two classes :
first mortgage: bonds,
to the amount of $19,500 per mile, and
SECOND MORTGAGE BONDS,
to an equal amount, both principal and Interest
guaranteed by the State of Louisiana. The price of
the two classes is the same, and subscribers can
take their choice.
The Bonds are only In the denomination of f 1000,
or 200 each, Interest payable January and July, at
the rate of eight per cent currency In New York, or
.seven per cent, gold la London, at the option of the
holder, at the time each coupon la due. Bonds can
ba registered, If desired.
NO BETTER SECURITY HAS BEEN
OFFERED
to Investors. The line Is a good and Important one.
and the stockholders have proved their determina
tion and ability to carry the work to an early and
successful completion, by the very large amount
t ney nave themselves put Into It.
The Bonds are largely profitable, as well as en
tlrely safe. One thousand dollars Invested In these
eight per cent, bonds will give the purchaser mors
than seventy-seven per cent, greater annual Interest
than the same Amount invested In the new Govern
ment Five Per Cents, Into which the Government
Sixes are being funded by the Secretary of the
Treasury.
At the same price, an 8 per cent, currency long
Dona is far cheaper than a T per cent gold one.
Calculating a return to specie payments In three
years, and taking the time that the bonds of the New
Orleans, Mobile, and Texas Railroad havo to run 45
years we find that by compounding the Interest of
each, every six months, at 7 per cent., au 8 per
cent currency bond at OO will give a return
of MORE than a 7 per cent. (rld
bond at the same price, or nearly three
times the amount of the original Invest
ment,
While the purchaser of the 8 per cent, bonds of
this company can realize this special profit, he also
holds the option of taking advantage of any tempo
rary advance In gold, as he has choloe, at every
separate coupon day, of gold Interest at T per cent.
or currency interest at 8 per cent.
The Bonds are dated May 1, 1S7L The first cou
pon will, therefore, be a fractional one, running
from May 1 to July 1. The price Is 90, and accrued
Interest at 8 per cent currency from May 1 to date
of remittance.
