Tlio Suez canal earned $17,000,000 gross nnd over $9,000,000 net last year, or mora than 20 per rent, on the par value of the capital. And yet peoplo question the earning powers o a trans-lsthmlnn canal In Nicaragua. favorable to Archbald. With the Democratic convention out of the way, the men who write about Htnto politics for the Philadelphia newspapers have turned again for sub ject matter to the Archbald Supremo court boom, and are giving, from day to day, a bewildering variety of fore rastu and opinions, no two of which agree. These piognostlcntlons arcs politically aluuk'H, but they at least pufflce to keep the name and career of the Lackawanna Jurist before the people, which Is helpful. With the Republican state conven tion unlikely to be called until the cool dns of September, there is no occnslon for pietnatuic excitement concerning Its work: but as th situation stands today. Judgo Aichbald's friends have eveiy ren'nn to feel encouraged and iery Incentive t push futwuid the campaign of education decided upon at the iccent mass meeting held In this clt In his Interest. Willi the Demon atlc nominee repre senting the southwestern bcitlon of the commonwealth the western represent ed by Justice Uean, of Hlall, the south eastern repiesented !

I.c t the nvilis of the Archbald can dldafj" ccintlnuo to be made known tlnoui'hout the commonwealth. Its houi seems at hand. Now that our government has com menced to Ismip ratlf ns of canned roast beef to the rillplnos the difficulty In th.it section may be sohed sooner than most of us anticipate. Stiike While the Iron is Hot. While Simmon's dliect Interest In the e.poit trade is not so large as that of cfit.iiii other communities, It Is sutllclently Impcatant to justify the Doaid of Tiaile In co-opeiatlng to the extent of Its ability with the promoteis of the National Uxport exposition, the scope and extent of which were well het forth last evening by Mr. H. P. Cow ell in the addiess which we repio duce In substance on this page. As he points out, the time Is cer tainly piopltlous for such a leaching out for new maikets. The United States has lccently been ads ei Used as neer before not alone In war and wur-l!Le accomplishments, pioflclency In which, among ceitaln classes of foiolgners, Is the necessaiy prellmln aiy to lmpioveci commercial lelations; but also In almost all the branches of manufactured pioductlon. Our goods hac gone fuither, made a more favor able Impietslon nnd attracted gi eater attention eluiing the past ear or two than In decades previous; and it Is a sound maxim to strike while the iron is hot. The Nntlonal Hxpoit exposition is an admit able device for btilklng the hot iron. Its success will reflect Itself In American business prosperity In all lines of tiade. Robert P. Porter is the latest Amerl rnn to lament that our beef-packlng-Ing intei csts were shown up in their cffoits to skin the aimy. Ho says their foielgn tiade has been ruined. Knavery geneinlly winds up In dis aster. Let the beef packers practice honest dealing and their trado will survive all attacks. Cuba and Congress. In wha might be called administra tion organs there Is appearing through out tho country a demand that the next LongresH give the president power to lay down a definite policy for Cuba and end the suspense which Is now ithe ono great obstacle to Cuban development. The fact Is noted that while to all ap pearances Cuba Is already pacified to the extent that war has ceased and brigandage been reduced to a mini mum, and that while the sanitary con dition of the Island Is now better by far than It has ever been before and tho nirnngements for the prompt and hon est administration of the Island's af faliH are superior to any hitherto In vogue; In other words, that while Ametlcan occupation has established tho political Institutions of Cuba on a modernized basis, yet in an economic tense the island is still at a standstill New capital does not Invest; old capital is apprehensive; public and Industrial works, so urgently needed for the em ployment of the men who are now quit ting the ranks of the revolutionary army, are not being opened up and yroductlvely opeaklng there Is n state of suspended animation. The richest spot In the world is yielding crops barely sufficient to sustain tho Island's decimated population and there are visible few signs of Immediate improve ment. What Is the trouble? Uncertainty as to tho Island's future. Tho men who own property will take no measure to improve it until they are satisfied that there Is to bo a stablo government capable of protecting them in their investments and putting upon them burdens of taxation no larger than honest administration requires. The men who have inaotlvo capital to In vest In opening up new enterprises will not take tho risk of the chaos which they foresee as a speedy result of American withdrawal. The result is that throughout tho island such property as has escaped ithe lavages of the in- surrectlonary warn or the torrh of the marauding bandits stands today tenant less and non-productlvc. an ominous testimonial to the paralyzing effects of uncertainty and dread. That congress, In pledging the United States to withdraw Its troops and In fluence from Cuba the moment that pacification Is accomplished, acted un w Isoly Is now generally conceded. The connress which look this action acted before It had full knonledgo of the sit uation. The same body, If called to do thls'thlng over again, would today act very differently because It knows now that Cuba Is a long way removed from the capacity for stable self-government nnd because It realizes In the light of experience that tho fewer the Initial pledges In an unfamiliar en terprise tho fewer the subsequent em barrassments nnd the greater the free dom of effort. That which Is done can not be recalled, but there U no renson why the next congress should not, as the Philadelphia Press suggests, supplement and correct the work of tho last by announcing with emphasis that tho United States will not withdraw from Cuba until Cuba Is unmistakably lltted for self-control nnd that, In any event, It will guarantee the futute pro jection of capital Invested during our military control. An announcement like this is needed to dispel the mists which are fast gathering around Cuba's economic outlook. Why should private and ofllclal ad vices fiom the Philippines so radically disagree? While General Otis Is al ways just on tho point of closing the w hole thing up, tho private ndvlces are unanimous thnt a long campaign with double our present force will bo need ed to pacify tho Island of Luzon. Isn't It about time for the war department to awaken? The Trust Issue. Speaking of trusts, President Adams of Wisconsin unlvcisity, asks: "It would be Impossible to claim that there Is liberty If the man with a shovel and tho man with a cart cannot agree to combine their Interests and wolk to gether. But such n combination In Its essential features would be a trust as much as any other. Is congress to say that J100.000 may combine with half a dozen men, but $1,000,000 may not combine with a thousand?" Certainly not- Hut congress, for In terstate business, nnd the various state leglslatuies for tho business which Is transacted within state lim its, aie to say that neither the little combine nor tho big Is to violate with Impunity the common prlnclifles of business equity nnd honor) without standing In peril of correctional disci pline, thiough fine, icstilctlon of privi lege or complete forfeiture of thaiter. This Is the future of the trust ques tion. A revolt against 1Z Benjamin An drews as superintendent of tho Chica go public schools, which Is Just now making Itself felt In the Windy City, Illustrates tho dldlculties of the con scientious superintendent who stilvcs to make the schools of a city what they should I Dr. Andiews Is de nounced ns au'ociatlc and fought on account of his alleged assumption of nuthorlty, all because be contends that the piaotlcal head of the schools should have n hand In employing the teacheis, In deciding tho conditions of pi amo tion and supot vising educational af falis genet all. Tho politicians icsent tl.lj. ns do their Incompetent proteges whos tenuio of position It threatens; but educated opinion sustnlns the sup eilntendent and It Is believed that he will win In theoiy, at least, a super intendent should superintend. If he is not competent to do that he Is unlit to dtaw pay while nominally filling his office. Relative to tho Hogdson-Schloy con troveisy, the New Yoik Sun affirms that Hodgson said to Paul Dana, In Rear Admiral Philip's presence, that Schley at Santiago said. "Damn the Texas; let the Texas tako care of her self." This, with the other evidence now In the public's possession, raises nn unavoidable question of veiaclty which the navy department Is In honor bound to Investigate. Let there bo a court of Inquiry. A boy of 13 up In Connecticut con cluded to die for love of a girl who re pelled his advances. It Is probably Just as well that the matter was thus settled. If he had grown to manhood the chances are that he would have be come a wife-beater. James Jeffries may now think that ho is a "good man," but wait until a de cision against the home team causes a demonstration from the western bleachers" nt Athletic park! The Elmlra Advertiser advocates a curfew ordinance. One would have supposed Elmlra was usually quiet enough to make the passage of such laws needless. The number of unterrlfled loaders who seem anxious to secure seats In tho Gorman presidential boom band vvngon, must be rather discouraging to Colonel Bryan. Tho Carllsts are again rising. They have Just surrendeied 4,000 jlfles at Arcachon. TOLD BY THE STAHb, Daily Horoscope Drawn by AJacchua, The Tribune Astrologer. Astrolabo Cast: 4.18 a. m., for Tuesday, Juno 20, JbjJ.

TI113 most temntlc m the expor States wi Interesting and sys- move for the Increase of export trado of the United 111 bo mado under the actions of the National Kxport Expo sition, to be held In Philadelphia, from September 14 to November 30, this fall. Tho buildings and grounds are located nt Thirty-fourth and South Btreets In West Philadelphia, adjoining the grounds of tho University of Pennsyl vania, and along the line of the Penn sylvania railroad. Tho specific object of this exposition Is tp bring together the most prominent and distinguished buyers of tho world, nnd present to them a representative display of Ameri can manufactures. Formal application for space In which to exhibit their pro ducts has been made from a largo num ber of manufacturers, which would re quire a classified Index to mention all, though the following are fairly repre sentative, namely: Machinery and ma chine tools, C6; hardware, 46; furniture, 10; musical Instruments, 7; vehicles, bicycles, agricultural Implements, 33 largo firms now in nnd 30 more prom ised; locomotives, enrs, etc., C; Iron products and steel work, C; leather goods, hats, shoes, stoves, slate, cement, nnithraclto nnd bituminous coal, and numerous others, to the num ber of about 400; nnd promises hnve been received fiom a large number of other manufacturers that they will dis play their products. o Tho exports of tho manufactured pro ducts of the United Stntes during tho fiscal vear ending June 30, 1S88, amount ed to $130,300,0S7; and for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1S03, were $290,097,031; an lucrense In ten jears of nearly 150 per cent. While for tho single month of March, this year, our exports of manufactured goods amounted to $30, 000,000, equal to an average of $132. 000,000 per annum, or an average In crease In eleven years nt the rate of 223 per cent ,Thesc cxpoits are made up principally of steel rails, bridges, locomotives, machine tools, agrlcul tui.il Implements, labor-saving machin ery, etc. Doubtless the Incieasc In these Items would be larger were It not for the enormous domestic demand for manufactures which hos revived within the last ear, after a depression of sev eial years. All students of political economy ngree that the time Is oppor tune for the American manufacturer to take advantage of clieumstances nnd conditions which favor us all over the .. -.,J . .-. 1... 1.1 .- I huiiu, unci wine uy iieisiiuiK eiur buuui Into dcllnlte foielgn markets the home competition Is modified; better prices obtain; workmen are more highly com pensated, and a vast amount of re cently tled-up capital is put into circu lation. It Is recognized as a fact that manufacturing and business generally In this country moves In waves, and that wo are now on the top of tho wave of prosperity, to be followed un doubtedly within a few years by over production and a comparative degreo of depression, which Is always antici pated after a few yeais of good times; but a partial remedy may be found for contemplated dull peilods by establish ing, say, a dozen outlets for our pio ductlons In other markets, which nto not susceptible to all of the same In fluences that aftect the domestic mar ket. In older to obtain definite and specific Infoimation as to how this may be accomplished, correspondence with tho Philadelphia Commercial Museums will prove that Infoimation may be obtained which will insuie the develop ment of trade In any ot the world's mat ts, even if now controlled by tho manufacturers of Europe. o The second convention of the Inter national Commercial Congiess will be held In the auditorium of the Exposi tion In October, 131 governments have been Inv Ited to send delegates, 800 chambeis of commerce nnd other com mercial bodies and 20,000 representa tive business firms Acceptances of Invitations have been received from 12 governments, CO trade organiza tions, 13S chambers of commerce and hundreds of firms and prominent indi viduals.

Con giess appropriated $30,000 for the spec ific purpose of collecting samples In foielgn markets of merchandise used therein, to bo displayed at the exposi tion, to enable American manufactur ers to see that class of goods with which thev must compete; and the products of a chatacter as near cor responding nnd competitive as can bo found In the exhibition will be In closo proximity, piesentlng both phases of the object lesson. In order to maintain this principle and Idea, nil of tho pro ducts placed In the exhibition will bo . un i . , ,.. ,i,.,,0iD ,i the board of trade can better accom plish the object which they wish to at tain by having the products of this city In their proper places In classes, than all collected within ono compaia tlvely small urea. The name of the city will thus bo displayed at several places In the innin exhibition building, and affording that many more oppor tunities of piesentlng the nar.e of the city than If all of tho exhibits were collected and showing the name only once. If it Is decided that a member of the board of trado would devote tlmo to overseeing these exhibits and meet ing people at one or the other of tho .sections, the possibilities would be very much greater for his accomplishing something definite in the way of at tracting tho attention of new Industries seeking locations than In any other way. This subject might be handled to good advantage by the board of trade, with better prospects of fucccss In tho objects they wish to accomplish than In nny other form. o The success of the exposition Is al ready assured from tho several stand points of nttendance of buyers; of dis plays of representative American pto ducts, and instiuctlon nnd amusement features, and In management under the auspices ot the Commercial museums and the Franklin institute. Applica tions for space aie coming In so rapidly that It Is necessary this week to make allotments of space, therefore, those w ho nre interested In this subject should file their applications promptly to Insure favorable consideration. THE TRAMP NUISANCE. Rochester Democrat and Chronicle. Joslah Pllnt has been Investigating the relation between tho trumps of the United States and the railways of the United Stales and has published the re sult of his Investigation In a recent num ber of tho Century. Mr. Pllnt Is espe cially equipped for th)3 task. He Is u qualitled and recognized tramp who has long been free of the Guild of Hoboes He mado his observations under excep tionally favorable conditions. Ho knows Its ways, Its language, Its modes of thought. Ho has traveled the length nnd breadth of tho country as a tramp He was recently employed by a railroad president, who for three years had been hard at work endeavoring to phut out tramps from the lines under his control and wanted an expert opinion as to tho tuccess of his efforts. His conclusions are Important and worthy of serious at tention. Ho says that thcro are 60,000 trnmp9 in this country; that overy day In tho year at least one-third ot tills number are on their travels; that the tramps of tho United States now travel exclusively by rail; and that they succeed In beating tho railroad companies of the United Btutos out of millions of dollars' wcrth of transportation every year. As 't costs a railroad exactly as much to transport a tramp as to transport a pajlng pas senger, this conclusion Is certainly of practical Interest to tho railways nnd their stockholders. Even moro Impor tant Is Mr. rilnt's conclusion that tho whole country suffers serious loss and damage becauso of tho free railway transportation of tramps. He shows that the railways make trumps by pro. vldlr.g for them a temptingly easy meth od of tramping; that they spread the tramp nuisance over a much greater stretch of teirltory than could bo cov ered bv It If tho trampj were foiced to take to tho turnpikes; that they make It next to impossible for the police to lo cate a criminal who Is uUo a qualified tramp; that they help to make the great cities centers of criminality, Just us they help to make them centers of trado and population; that weio It not for the gen erosity of tho railways toward tho tramps, tho tramps would bo far fewer and far easier to deal with than they nro now. :o: It appears, then, that It is exceedingly deslruble for tho well-being of tho com munity that the trump should be driven off the lallicads. It has been practl. cally demot strated that this Is perfectly feasible by concerted action of tho rail way companies. This being so, tho time has como when the public is Justllled In demanding Mich action by the railways. For tho American tramp haH come to be a portentous and an intolerable nuisance. A Questionable Compliment. Ho "Dearest, you aro my very life." She "Coming from you at this time thnt's hardly complimentary." Ho "And why not, pray?" She "Becai'so you were but a moment ago quoting that 'life Is us tedious ns an oft-told tale.' "-Detroit Free Prcs.s, fMlllB, 1.
