GILBKHT i Man f'nrrfmiendent Kirntnr rlllp l.nUrr Cvvvrleht. 10:j, In Viibllc Ledger Company Washington, April It. A new river and harbor bloc in t'engress 1ms been) formed en n large" scale. Seme say il i is permanent, lis Hrst uchieemeiit was tlm ocrllirew of tlie Inidget and In- ereac tlie waterwnj appropriations from S27,00n.()(H te S I'J.tKKUKM). i The Heuse leaders and budget-makers , bbed their ees when it lia1pened and l cy found the New Yerk mid New .lei- i m ru th M'v (leiegnliens in the Heuse eting sol idly for appropriations te Southern rivers. Such lack et sectionalism, such indifference te economy! It was really quite astonishing. Finally it nil enmc out. All of New Yerk and New Jersey voted le develop the Mississippi nnd the Ohie In consid eration of the Mississippi nnd Seul hern States voting ugaiusl the St. Lawrence waterway project. Seaports Against liike Ports It i!. (lie seaports, Knstern anil South ern, against the lake ports, which wish te become seaports by having n ship cuiini ceiinectiiiK inem uy way 01 mc St. Lawrence with tlie ocean. Develop the St. Lawrence waterway and much freight that new gees by tlie waj of New Yerk will start for Hurepe b the way of Chicago and Cleveland or De troit. New Yerk sees Itself left a pert for freight from L'astern sections of the country. Tlie idea of a combination against the St. Lawrence and the great central waterwnjs seems ti, luin been sug gested by Governer Milter, of New ierk. In a debate between him and Governer Allen at the rivers und harbors congress, Governer Miller said New Yerk was willing te pay its sliare of developing the Mississippi basin and the Southern lierts even though they would attract trade from New Yerk, because they were American projects. Ills plea was develop the Mississippi, Ohie and Missouri lirst ami thus fur nish u waterway for grain, an a'l Amcrlcau waterway. The 8t. Lawrfcnee was u half-Cnnadiaii project. It went against the patriotism of Mew Yerk te see il preferred te the strictl American internal waterwaH. New Yerk has heretofore nlwavs voted against tlie Mississippi und related proj ects, in tln past New Yerk alwn.vs regarded iliciii as thieateiilug her trade supremacy. New slm fears less South ern nnd Internal river competition than she does competition with the lake pertr.

"First, the oppor tunity It gives le young men and )emig women te meet one ulietlier; second, loneliness of a dreary bearding house room, and instly, underneath all, the urge of sex." He said he snw nothing in his visit le the large dance lmll Hint led him te believe that tlie conduct of dancers was reprehensible. On the contrary, every thing was going en in u decent, und orderly manner. "Yet. in tlie' midst of Ihnse gliding forms," he added, "there lurk the grim speclers of falling health and unein unein ple.vmeut; tlie specters f jealousy and rage, I be specters of broken vows, of disappointed hopes, lest innocence and n corroded conscience."

The Piemler -sulil his resolution gave the Heuse nti opportunity of approving or disapproving the objects of tlie Genea Conference and tlie make-up of tlie Genea delegation, and that if tlie reso lution were defeated it would be equiv alent te a vote of no confidence in tlie Government. The Prime Minister said the official opposition amendment challenged net the object, but tlie scope of the con ference. He did net believe such a body ns tlie Genea Conference lid properly consider tlie revision of existing treaties. even In tlie event It was desirable.
