TWELVE PAGES
THE BOND smiMhiox.
The reported opposition in Select Coun
cils to the ordinance for submitting the
question of a bond issue to a vote of the
people materialized only in the adverse
speech of one member and the adverse
votes of three. The necessity and fair
ness of this course, pointed out by Tire
Dispatch when that certificate of
indebtedness proposition was pending,
were so plain as to command the votes of
set en to one of that body.
The opposition was based on the claim
that the issue of the bonds is unnecessary,
coupled with an assertion that contracts
have not been properly performed
which will be very interesting if substan
tiated, but has no beariim on the bond
question and the expression of a very
natural objection to having the city as
sume the debt. These objections were
fully answered by Mr. Lambie's speech.
The arcuments on both sides bore on the
propriety of the bond issue, but, except as
to the fact of certain payments coming
due within a year, they hardly affected
the real question. That was as follows:
It being certain that the city must provide
for a share of these payments in the next
twelve months, shall the people have the
opportunity of saying whether they pre
fer to be taxed for these payments in a
single let y or to have bonds issued? On
the propriety of letting the people decide
whether they will pav this debt all at I
once or extend it till the street question
can be clearly settled, there is but one
possible opinion and that is expressed by
the action of Councils.
The people will now have two months
to fully discuss and decide the method of
payment. There is a decided liklihood
that the bond issue will be approved; but
whichever way the vote goes it will pre
sent the satisfactory aspect of being the
mode of payment indorsed by the major
ity of the voters.
THE PAX ItErCIitIC CONGRES.
The Pan Republic Congress opened in
Philadelphia yesterday by the Governor's
address of welcome has a lofty ideal be
fore it. The rroject of promoting union
between the republics of the world is suf
ficient to fire the imagination of every be
liever lii republican government. Meet
ing on the anniversary of the discovery of
Columbus, it has encouragement in the
fact that nearly the entire hemisphere dis
covered 393 years ago is now under repub
lican rule, and that the great republic
which h . stood all assaults in Euiope for
21 years will welcome the Congress to
Paris next year. While there are many
obstacles to the perfect realization of the
ideal at Vhich the Congress aims, it is
sure to prove the truth of Sir Phillip Sid
ney's apothegm that he who aims his ar
row at the mid-day sun, though he shall
never hit the mark yet knows that bis
shaft will flj higher than if he had aimed
it at the wayside bush.
I! UVXIMUKK'S NEW EXPERIENCE.
The Blue laws which remain upon the
statute books of Maryland like as in Penn
sylvania are now being pairially enforced
at Baltimore, much to the surprise, it is
announced, of those who have been ac
customed to getting their ice cream, meat,
milk and ice on Sunday, same as any other
day. The programme of enforcement at
Baltimore is more rigid than comprehen
sive. Dealers there are held to be ex
cluded from serving on Sunday even where
orders are given and paid for on Saturday.
On the other hand, neither the street cars,
the railroad trains, the telegraph messen
gers nor the newspapers are interfered
with. The extent of the restriction at
Baltimore is therefore practically about
the same as that which has been applied
in Pittsburg.
Upon the heels of the activity at Balti
more comes an intimation that the sup
porters of the ancient statutes in this State
intend soon to go farther and make the ap
plication of the statutes complete, includ
ing trains, street cars, mills and every
other form of effort which they conceive
to be in conflict with the letter of the law.
It is their privilege to test the application
of the enactment to the fullest, but it does
not take much discernment to perceive
that if in bringing such suits no regard be
had to the reasonable changes of conditions
in the last hundred years, either the
courts will be looked to for a wider in
terpretation of works of necessity, or else
questions will inevitably arise for further
legislative settlement. At present the
concession is freely made that Pittsburg is
Ihe most orderly city on the continent in
i aspect to Sunday observance.
A OlTEsTJON roil FARMERS.
Xow that the season is approaching
when the agricultural districts will find
their communication with the markets
sporadically cut off by the impassabilityof
the country roads, it will be profitable for
them to ask themselves how much gam
there is for them in the opposition to im
proved country roads on the ground that
it imolves a largely increased expenditure.
One of the greatest obstacles to road im
provement consists of the stubborn idea
of the agricultural classes that it costs
more to have good roads than poor ones.
This is a most curious error. It is the case
on the other hand that the money spent
in patching the roads each summer in a
way which causes them to return to their
regular bottomless condition each winter
would, if applied scientifically for a series
of j ears, supply the country districts with
durable highways on which their products
could be hauled to market at all seasons.
True, this consummation could be
hastened by increased expenditures. If
neB
any sections should adopt that policy the
outlay would be amply repaid byihe in
creased facilities of communication, the
saving in horse power and wear of vehi
cles and the increased value of their farms.
But the point upon which it is well to have
a clear understanding is that, with intelli
gent direction, an expenditure no greater
than that made necessary now by the sys
tem of patchwork would" gradually estab
lish substantial and lasting highways con
necting all the country districts with then
most important markets.
These facts are good ones for farmers
to ponder during hours of ' enforced leis
ure caused by their inability to haul pro
ducts to market After they have consid
ered the subject all winter they may in the
spring be qualified to give an intelligent
answer to the question: Does the present
system, or lack of system, in road mending
pay?
NATIONAL WATERWAYS.
The appointment by the Governor of
a delegation of Western Pcnnsylvanians
to attend the waterway convention at
Evansville is attended by a more tolerant
tone of comment concerning that gather
ing than usual of late years. It is a signifi
cant result of the discussion on-internal
waterways in which TnE Dispatch has
taken the lead that the Eastern press is
beginning to recognize and even approve
of the project when presented in the form
of a comprehensive and connected system
of internal navigation.
This makes clear enough the direction
in which the efforts of the convention
should tend. Heretofore the agitation of
the waterways question has suffered be
cause of its identification in the public
mind with that class of "old-flag-and-an
appropriation" patriotism which takes
concrete form in river and harbor items
for the improvement of horse ponds and
goose creeks. The public is beginning to
perceive the radical distinction between
such raids on the Treasury and the crea
tion of waterways of really national im
portance. It should be the especial busi
ness of the convention to emphasize that
distinction in the strongest possible man
ner. This can be done in the most effective
way by first disclaiming all sympathy with
the political method of using the river and
harbor appropriations as a plum to be
divided up. In its place should be pre
sented the fact that a union of the Inter
ests which favor the improvement of. the
main rivers and their connection with the
lakes by the Hennepin and Ohio river and
Lake Erie canals, with the addition of a
ship canal connection with the seaboard,
constitutes an homogenous system of in
ternal waterways which would be of in
calculable benefit to commerce. This
country has "within eighteen years spent
3,300,000 of actual capital and twice as
much on paper in extending its railway
system. Twenty per cent of that sum
would bring into existencb a system of
waterways of greater value in moving the
great staples of agriculture and manufact
ures than the entire railway system.
The waterways convention should aim
at the union of the river interests with the
lake interests and those backing the ship
canal projects, and present their projects
as a single enterprise for a complete sys-
tera of internal waterways. This will be
a national project, and will unite the sup
port of the people from the Alleghenies to
the Rocky Mountains and from New
Orleans to Duluth.
THE GERMAN AGREEMENT.
Another striking result of the policy of
reciprocity which Secretary Blaine inau
gurated less than a year ago is presented
in the pending removal of the German du
ties on grain from the United States in ex
change for the free admission to the
United States of beet sugar.
No doubt the contemplated departure of
the German Government from its policy of
high duties on grain for the benefit of the
landed proprietors was aided by the im
pending scarcity of grain in Europe. But
it would nevertheless be a great gain for
the agricultural classes of the United
States. It would remove a barrier of
33 1-5 cents per bushel between our pro
ducers and the German consumers, who
alone would take a liberal share of surplus
products. This decrease in the cost of ex
change would be divided between the
American producer and the German con
sumer; but whatever gain the latter se
cured would come as a reflex gain to the
United States in the shape of increased
consumption.
The addition to our supplies of sugar by
the continuance of German sugar on the
free list would be equally satisfactory.
The policy of free sugar and reciprocity,
of which The Dispatch was an early ad-vocate,-will
prove an unqualified success
if the pending negotiations with Germany
end on the basis outlined in late dis
patches. EEAl KAPIP TRANSIT.
The discussion of the rapid transit
problem in New Tork has crystallized in a
report by the Rapid Transit Commission
which indicates what shape the coming
means of municipal transit may take.
It is instructive to cities whose transit
routes and needs have not yet progressed
beyond the stage of electric and cable sur
face roads to learn that there is a practical
agreement that the underground electric
road is the thorough solution of the
problem. The elevated railway is now
recognized in New York to bo an incom
plete and unsatisfactory method, destined
to wear out in time and involving possi
bilities of the gravest character. An un
derground road is agreed upon as the most
permanent, adequate and satisfactory way
of enabling transit to be furnished at high
speed away from the surface of the streets.
Theie is still a warm debate as to the kind
of undergiound road to be adopted,
whether of the Greathead class or the
older variety; but the underground in one
shape or other is a settled matter.
There is more than an abstract interest in
this decsion to Pittsburg. When our needs
go beyond the facilities of the cable and
electric roads the experience of New Tork
will show us what to aim at It is perti
nent, too, that when as may be the case
before many years we shall need greater
speed and capacity than the present lines
can afford, a tunnel from Grant street to
the vicinity of Ben Venue, and a sunken
road the rest of the way to Wilkinsburg,
Braddock or Wilmerding, will afford ad
vantages of directness and speed that can
be obtained by no other style of transit
If it is true that New York has only
33,503 dogs the residents of Hardscrabblo
and the hill districts bhould ship to the
metropolis a few train loads of their 6urplns
canine population to make up tho Man
hattan deficiency.

Christendom Is not prepared.
The learned Prof. Goldwin Smith thinks
he has discovered a similarity in the deaths
of Tta lmneptfa. Boul.inser and I'arnell Th.
resemblance between tho taking off of IJal-
niaccda nnd Boulanger was widely com
Tnentcd on atthe death of the latter: but the
idea that there, Is anything In common with
them in Pamcll's death is only an example
of Pror. Smith's insensato Toryism.
"A notice in the court at New Haven
assigning October 20 for argument on the
quo warranto case of Morris" against Bnlkcley
is a reminder that the duly-elected Governor
of Connecticut has been deprived or his
sent for nearly a year without shadow of
reaon or excuse." This assertion by tho
Philadelphia Jtecord Indicates that our
esteemed cotemporary Is likely to forget
truth in its partisanship. Does it mean to
assert that Bulkoley is not holding over un
der a provision of tho Constitution of Con
necticut, providing for the continuance of
the Governor in offlco when there is an un
decided contest over the election of his suc
cessor? If this is "usurpation," as the Record
declares what term does it uso to describe
the case in West Virglna a few years ago,
where a Democratic Governor did exactly
tho samo thing?
Tun proposal that Anson, of Chicago,
will take tho stage this.wlnter in a baseball
comedy is calculated to make theater-goers

ficient comedy during the summer season.
The denial of Queen Liliuokalani, of
Hawaii, that sho is dying is generally taken
as settling tho question; but that is not al
ways a safe guide. Somo politicians have
been prominent in refusing to iccognizo tho
fact when they were entirely defunct issues.
A young diamond merchant who has
been selling diamonds under 'the represen
tation tUat they were smuggled, when
hauled up by the law declares they were not
smuggled, and that his saying so was only a
trick to catch customers. Between the pen
alties for smuggling and the penalties of
being a self-confessed liar, ho evidently pre
fers tho latter.
General Boynton'S retirement from
the position of Washington correspondent
of the Cincinnati Commercial-Gazette ends
his occupancy of a position which ho has
filled with honor and usefulness for a longer
space of time than almost any other Journal
ist in Washington. But the disposition of
somo of our Eastern cotemporarles to make
an issue of Boynton as a martyr to Halstead
ism is rathermisplaced. If General Boynton
wishes to continue in newspaper work ho
can find employment without difficulty; and
the Commercial-Gazette, although an Awful
Example of the obstreperous organ, has
surely tho right to select it own Washington
correspondent.
A peemanent Census Bureau would be a
very valuable feature of the Goycrnment
with a proviso. Tho name of tho official to
take charge of it should not be Robert P.
Porter.
Congressman Otis, of Kansas, intends
to pioposo the Issuing or $2,000,000,000 of
"money" by the next Congress. What is tho
use of doing thing by halves. Make it $5,000
OOO.OC0 and let U9 all have the luxury of us
ing the alleged money for wasto paper.
The criticisms of the Philadelphia Evttctin
on the length of Governor Pattison's mes
sage, before it is published, may be taken as
nn evidenco of that organ's well-founded con
viction that the' loneerand more detailed
tho Governor's charges of official miscon
duct are, the woi-so it will be, to tho Bullc
tiii's taste.
It is Interesting to learn from a press
anecdote that an American who called upon
Tennyson was corrected by the poet for his
use of "awfully," declared to be an "Amer
icanism" which wasias objectionable to tho
Laureate as the slang use ot tne ndjectivo
"bloody." It happens that the slang uso
of both these worjis is of cockney deriva
tion. Nevertheless itis satisfactory to learn
that the American citizen who had adopted
either spocimen of English slovenliness, was
properly crushed by the Laureate. We can
forgive tho lattcrbls Inaccuracy with regard
to the origin of tho terms, in view of tho
pertinence ot Ms reproof.

Canapa is following the example of the

Now that a young woman has been shut
up in one of the English railway car com
partments with a maniac, and thrown from
it with no one to aid her, perhaps tho
leisurely English mind may eventually per
ceive that tho American style of cais would
effectually pie vent anything of the sort.

ENGLAND ASTONISHED
By the Rate of Speed Now Attained I'pon
American Railways Forced to Confess
That Another Proud European Boast Is
a Thing of the Past.
On the second dayaflerthe special train
of the New York Central Railroad made its
famous trip of a mile a minute from New
York to Buffalo, several English newspapers
published editorials admitting that tliis
country "took the cake" for fast trains.
Here aro some of tho remarks of tho Sartre
tngham Daily Mail on the subject:
"It seems to be bevond dispute that the
great Ameriean nation has done another best
on record. It has shown that there is noth
ing to prevent u railway train from running
a long distance at tho rate ofa mile a minute
Such a possibility has always been admitted
by peoplo who know anything at all about
engineering. There i no reason beyond
considerations of personal safety why a
train should not travel at the rato of a
hundred miles anhour. There are expresses
at the present moment running in England
nt tho rate of considerably over sixty miles
an hour, but only, of course, for limneu. uis
tances. "There Is a general impression on this side
of the Atlantic that we havo developed a far
more rapid rato or railway traveling than
has been attained In America. We naturally
pride ourselves upon our splendid tracks,
which aro Incomparably better than the
average American track, and it is one of our
insular boasts that no nation in tho world
can show such a service or trains as aro to
be found, say between London and Man
chester, London and Edinburgh, or even be
tween Liverpool and Manchester.
Progress of Other Nations.
"But the Englishman who has not left the
confines of his own country must mako
some allowance for tho progress which
other nations are making in the direction of
rapid locomotion. Nothing strikes tho visi
tor to tho United States more powerfully
than tho extraoulinary improvement which
the American railway system has under
gone during the last few years. One hasonly
to travel from New York to Niagara, a dis
tance of about 500 miles, at the rate of more
than forty miles an hour, or to take one of
their sumptuously furnished expresses to
Chicago and cover more than double 503
miles at a still fastor rato of speed, to be put
somewhat ont of conceit with the ligtning
like qualities of our English trains. .Never
theless, the Americans havo not disputed
till this moment that the finest bit of rail
way traveling in tho wide, wide world has
been done on an English line.
"This distiction was achieved by tho Lon
don and Northwestern in their race with
the Great Northern from London to Edin
burgh. In running from London to Crewe,
11U miles, without a stop, in three hours and
live minutes, the Nortlrwestern lalrly opened
the eyes of the Americans as to what could
bo done in the shape of speed bv tho best
possioie engine on the Dest possioie tracic.
But If wo are to believe the New York cor
respondent of the Standard he Is supported
in his statement by Dalziel's nows agency
this smart performance irora London to
Crewe has been relegated to that "back
seat" which, soonor or later, is tho late of all
best on records in this age.
"Ihe story is that on Monday in nn experi
mental trip, a train, composed of nn engine
of 100 tons nnd three privato carriages
weighing 130 tons, made tho run from New
York to East Buffalo, 433 miles, in 439 min
utes. By the side of this our little spurts in
England appear very small beer.
Tho Record Is Not Doubted.
"We are inclined to believe that the
details of this extraordinary trip are capable
of complete verification. It is a preliminary
boom for the Chicago Exhibition. All the
railway companies will be trying to increase
their rates of spoed in view of tho competl
tlon for traffic. Tho great drawback to tho
World's Fair Is generally recognized to be
the distance which separates Chicago from
the seaboard. Travelers from Europo will
not relish a thousand miles' railway journey
on ton of their ocean trip. The cxpi esses at
presen running between Now York and
Chicago do the distance in a trifle under 24
hours; hut now that the New York Central
Railway has shown what a simple thing it is
to run a train hundreds of miles at the rate
of a mile a minute, there is a prospect of
the visitors to the coming Exhibition being
whirled to their destination in about 10
hours. Americans will scarcely bo stag
gered by such a wonderful upheaval of the
record. They have witnessed, as we havo
said, somo mighty transformations in their
railway systenvdnring tho last few years.
"It is to be hoped that this will not develop
a craze for dangerous speed. Mr. James
Gordon Bennett secured a wonderful adver
tisement by running a newspaper train
from New 1 ork to Chicago in 24 hours, or an
improvement upon the previous time to tho
extent of nearly a dozen hours. Now it is
tho turn or the New York Central to earn
undying renown as the first railway com
pany in the world to run a long distance at
tho rate of a mile a minute. Now that this
has been done, tho go ahead American,
when In a "hurrying np" humor, will not
consider that he is moving at all unless his
train is whizzing him along at CO miles an
hour. There are many people who consider
themselves far safer in an express flying I
alontrnttho rato of CO or 70 miles an hour
than in a local train moving nt about a
quarter of the speed. A fast train com
mands respect. There is no perfunctory
supervision of points and signals whe,n the
express is due.
English Trains Mnst Go Faster.
"One probable, we might almost say
certain effect or thi3 experimental railway
trip in America will bo the revival of tho
familiar controversy about the duration ot
the journey between Birmingham and Lon
don. We are by no means inclined to dis
parage the splendid service between New
stieetand Euston. There nro no trains in
tho world that keep more reliable time or
are under better management than the
Euston expresses. But would it not be pos
sible to clip offa few minutes from the reg
ulation run? The distance between New
street and Euston is 113 miles, and the time
has been brought down by careful grada
tions to two hours and a half.
"Now, it is quite obvious that if a
mile a minute can be safely done on an
American track, it should be possible to
travel from Birmingham to London in a
couple of hours or so, which would bo a con
siderable saving of valuable tlmo for busi
ness men. But it will bo said there is tho
question or stops to be taken Into account.
That is quite true. But then tho complaint
of businessmen is that there are too many
stops on the London line. The experiment
might at any rate be tried of running two or
three trains during the day with one. or, at
the outside, two stops. Onby one train the
8-30 In the morning from New streot does
the journey in two and a half hours.
"Tho first stop in the remarkable run
from New York to Buffalo was at the end of
the 143d mile to change engines, the tinio
then being 140 minutes. Then there was
another run or 14S miles in 14G minutes. It
is to be hoped that the successor the venture
will not drive the world to risky experi
ments in tho way of rapid locomotion. The
whole thing suggests creepy reflections ot
what might happen if scnething occurred
to oheckan express moving at the rate ofa
mile a minute. Of course, with the line in
good order and the wheels nnd axles all
lUht, and the signalling and points above
suspicion, tho possibilities of n catastrophe
are very remote Peoplo have so much to
do nowadays that fast traveling is an enor
mous convenience, and when consistent
wltn safety it is to bo heartily encouraged.
We seo what the development of speed in tho
ocean steamer has done to increase the
traffic between this country and America.
It now- seems that rapid railway traveling
is to play its part in tho same direction."

Better Homes for tho Poor.
To the Editor of the Dispatch:
Some time ngo I noticed in The DisrATCH a
communication fiom a lady calling the atten
tion of Miss O'Reilly to the condition of the
houses or the workingmen. Tho views of
this lady wero correct in the main. There
is nothing needed so much in Pittsburg, and
for that matter. In nil the large cities of the
United Stato, as better tenements for ihe
pooier classes. As a general rule tho tene
ments which can bo lented by tho working
man aro rickctty, broken down buildings,
which aro harly lit for nny purpose. They
should bo torn down and replaced by struct
ures in which better sanitary arrangements
exist. Of what use is it to build sewers, and
to keep the streets clean, if people are forced
to live in hovels, in whoso very walls tho
germs of disease have existed for veais? I
have seen in Pittsburg and In Net York a
state ofatlairs which would not be permit

who are interested in this matter can prove
to their own satisfaction that peoplo are al
lowed to live here in a manner that should
be stopped at onco. These districts are not
very tar from the heart of the citv either,
and it is plainly evident that these hovels
should be replaced by new buildings at

Tho Need of Wider Streets.
To the Editor of The Dispatch: '
One of the greatest mistakes of the ago is
made in tho laying out or streets in cities
and tow ns. Thoy arc generally too narrow
to accommodate travel when the districts
adjacent have boon thickly settled. Exam
ples of this nro seen in every large city, and
in Pittsburg as well as Chicago or Bo-ton.
Tho mistake was made in the past, long be
fore It was supposed that part of tho strcots
would bo occupied by street cars, but to-day
sections nio being opened in the suburbs,
and the mistakes are in process of repeti
tion. It is only reasonable to expect that
Pittsburg will keep on growing, and that
somo day streets-that are now being put in
use lor the first time will be crowded with
trafic. The street cars will extend their
tracks and then there will be as much com
plaint over theso now streets as there is to
day over tho present narrow thoroughfares.
Would it not be well, whllo land is compara
tively cheap, for those who are subdividing
lands to look into the future? Streets in
tended for business should certainly be
wider than they aro, and ho is a wise man
who provides plenty of room for traffic of
all kinds in the subdivisioa he is preparing
lor tho market. Tandem.

The most important phase of the meeting
of tho Daughters of the American Revolu
tion, which convened yesterday, as usual, at
Mrs. Nathaniel Hogg's, was that lady's re
signation from the regency of the Pittsburg
chapter and the election of officers, or, more
correctly, the ratification of those appointed
in the spring. The probability of Mrs.
Hogg's resignation has not been unknown,
hut this did not make its reality the less un
pleasant. Tho nominations (only a matter
of form) were made on thd floorand then
balloted on. Mrs Albert Childs was
elected recent to fill tho remain,
dor of Mrs. Hogg's term, and the
other officcis elected an Advisory Board:
Mrs. Nathaniel Hog?. Mrs. James 15. Oliver,
and Miss Denn; Treasurer, Miss Kato C.
McKnight; Secretaire, Miss Burgwin; His
torian, Miss Sempfe": Registrar, Mrs. -Park
Painter; As-istants, Miss Harding and Miss

lowed the election, whi-n Mrs. Hogg gave an

work.
