The remarkable statement is made
that the average Englishman uses 40
pounds of wilt a year.
In England one man in B.OOOnttends

It is estimated by the New York Ad
Tcrtiser that 117,000 people are out
of employment in Chicago, and the
city ia overrun with penniless and
homeless people. This ia part of
the penalty of the Great Fair.

Exclaims the Kt. Louis Republic :
"Our entire new navy, including three
tugboats, has cost only $20,000,000.
Some Englishmen are vowing that
ten times that amount ought to be
apent at once to secure their nation
against France aud Russia."
Rays the New Yolk Herald : "The
Anarchists are a common danger. It
is therefore the duty of every one to
make common cause against them.
Since it is a part of their creed that
there is no frontier for their crimes,
they must be made to understand that
there is no frontier for their lepres
tion." The posted list of most New York
clubs is a business barometer. Such
lists are unusually long and their items
unusually persistent in times of de
pression. But with the return of
business sunshine they melt like snow
at the approach of spring. It is a
point of pride with some men never
to be thus posted for debt, but there
are snobs who contemplnte with satis
faction the appearance of their names
once a month on the bulletin board
along with the names of distinguished
men in whose company they would be
glad to be seen upon any terms.
The civil list or salary of King
Humbert, of Italy, is the largest of all
those paid by European nations to
their respective sovereigns. This is so
much more remarkable, because Ital
ian) finances are at the lowest ebb.
Humbert's civil list is fixed annually
at 14,500,000 francs, nearly 83,000,000.
The Europenn sovereigns who receive
the highest pay below that of Hum
bert are Emperor William, of Ger
many, with a civil list of 12,000,000
francs anil Queen Victoria, with about
9, 000, 000.
Chicago is not contented with hav
ing made the World's Fair a success,
but is reaching out for everything in
sight, notes the New Orleans Ticay
nne. Her latest scheme is to make
herself the center of the waterways of
the United States. This she thinks
may be accomplished by the Henne
pin canal, now under construction
from that city to the Mississippi river,
and by a ship canal from the south
end of Lake Michigan to the western
end of Luke Erie at Toledo. The dis
tance is 140 miles, and this canal
wonld cut off 550 miles of dangerous
lake navigation, saving time, interest
and insurance. The canal, it is esti
mated, could be built for 50,000,000
the interest on which would be more
than saved on freight charges. It ia
thought that the cannl would be a
profitable investment, and add greatly
to Chicago's business and importance.
Remarks the Kew York Tost : "The
settlement of the Lehigh Valley Rail
road strike by arbitration, so soon
after the settlement of a much larger
one (the coal miners' strike) in Fug
land by the same means is cause for
both thankfulness and hope. The
principles of arbitration are applicable
to every conceivable dispute between
employer and employe. This is not
saying thut the decision of arbitrators
mnat perforce be acoepted by both
parties in every case. That might not
be possible in every ease, but in nine
eases out of ten it would be acoepted,
and the result wonld be the saving of
millions of dollars to this country
every year, besides improving the tem
per and self-respect of all the parties
concerned. It would undoubtedly
improve the quality and amount of the
work (lone also, by satisfying the em
ployes that their rights were secured
to them as well as possible under the
circumstances. A very timely publica
tion on this subject is a volume of 110
pages entitled 'Industrial Arbitration
and Conciliation,' compiled by Jose
phine Shuw Lowell. It gives a de
tailed aooount of the working of arbi
tration in concrete, cases in Engluud,
Belgium and the United States. Such
illustrations are far more eulighteuiug
than any abstract argumeut could be.
It is to be hoped that Mrs. Lowell
will, in a future edition, add the de
tails of the English ooal-miue arbitra
tion and that of the Lehigh Valley
Railroad. All such literature should
itS k"pt ia handy place."

THE HAWAIIAN PUZZLE.
BZFBBBED TO CONOHEBS
Br The President in a Messere Which
was Accompanied by Hitherto Un
published Correspondence.
The President, In his message to congress
rcompanylnf the Hawaiian correspon
dence, states that he "transmits copies of
all dispstchee from our Hswsilan minister
except those heretofore sent, and alio
copy of the last Instructions sent to minls
er Willis, dated Ssturday and which are
the only instructions to blm not already
lent to congress. One of the two dispstcbei
heretofore withheld is also sent In, inas
much as It Is referred to in the dispatches of
Minister Willis, but the other No. 70. is
still withheld for the reason that inch a
course seems proper.". This is the extent
of the President's message.
The correspondence opens with a dlipatch
from Mr. Willis in which he gives details
of the call made upon him at the legation
by the ex-queen November 13, when she
declined to grant amnesty to those now in
the provisional government.
Mr. Willie quotes the Hswsllsn penal
code.under which the queen said she would
set and wnlch says that all those who shall
commit the crime of treason, shall be put to
death, Mr. Willis speaks of the excitement
on the Island, snd asks for prompt action
and urges that in view of the excitement,
Mr. Klount's report be withheld.
The next dispatch is dated December A it
notes the arrival of British and Japanese
warships and refera to the excitement caused
by Mr. Ureeham's letter to the president
urg n- restoration. Following ihia is noted
the various cniamurtieations belweea Mr.
Wlllii and President Dole, which have
already been made public.
Mr. Willis encloses a protest he received
from cltiiens against Interference bv the
United Statea government to restore the
queen and also BJeiter from President Dole
prohibiting the further landing of troops
for drilling purposes.
LATEST IJSTSUCTIOXS TO SR. WILLIS ,
The steamer Mariposa which sailed on
Saturday for Honolulu, carried Instructions
to Minister Willis. He Is Informed that he
has rightfully Interpreted his instructions
snd performed his duty in the premises.
Nothing more is to be dons as the subject
is now in tbe hands of co press.
The correspondence of Minister Willis is
given quite lolly, iu which he described his
second interview with the queen, when sbe
signed the agreement to grant amnesty to
all those engaged in the revolt
The answer of President Dole to the noti
fication of the president's demend tbst the
queen be restored Is also given In this
President Dole expresses the disappoint
ment felt at the action of the president of
the United States In withdrawing the
treaty of annexation, and while accepting
tbe president's decision, in declining fur
tef to consider the annexation proposition,
the provisional government was not inclin
ed to regard it as the last word of the
American government on the subject.
Inasmuch as the close relations of the two
countries all point with convincing force
to polltloal unison between the two coun
tries. This conviction was emphasised by the
favorable expression of Mercy, Seward,
Fish and Blaine, all former secretsries of
state and especially so by the Harrison ad
ministration. The provisional government
Would therefore continue the project of
political union with the I'nited States as a
conspicious feature of its foreign policy.
President Dole then enters into a long
argument to demonstrate that the United
States government has no right to Interfere
with the present government of Hawaii.

A GAIN I ft TRADB.
A Distinct Improvement In Business
Noted. More Industries Start
Up Than Shut Down
Last Week.
R.O.Dun & Co.'t Weekly Review of Trade
ssys:
Business has distinctly Improved since
the newyesr came, and the gain Is no long
er visible only In speculative markets. It
Is the only kind of Improvement that hat
In It possibilities of lasting, because It li
bssed upon ectusl Increase In the produc
tion by Industries. As all rejoice lo see it,
there Is perhaps a little disposition to
reckon the gain greater that It Is as yet,
but several large establishments have stsrt
td with part force, hoping to Incresse, and
more smaller works have started than have
flopped.
Orders from dealers whose stock approach
exhaustion form a prominent cause; an
other Is tbe widely prevalent impression
tbst action at Washington will be more
sstlsfsctory than many have expected; and
a belief that in any case the sltustion will
not be changed until goods now In the
works can be marketed has weight In some
trades. Whatever tbe causes, even a mod
erate gain is most cheering.
Bank clearances, Indicate that no large
gain had occurred as yet In tbe volume of
business, being 2f per cent smaller than a
year ago. Money continues to pour Into
this city as It would not if trade approached
normal activity, and the demand Is so nar
row that loans are 1100,000,000 below de
posits. Foreign exchange has risen 2 cents
in a fortnight, snd some look for gold ex
ports sgsin. Sales of stock turn the balance
although foreign houses are offering loam
here on long time.
The aggregate of sales by 1,148 concerns
was 1219,759,080 In the last half of 1893,
against 315,290,340 in the last halt ot 1892;
a decrease of 30,3 per cent.

Much sTratltude la owlnir to the six
dectors of the Institute of Experi
mental Pathology in Vienna who have
been trying risky experiments upon
themselves with the comma bacillus
In the Interest of science. It la tatis
fact Ty. however, to know that.
although each person swallowed a
large numier of the bacilli contained
in fluid, in no case did Astatic cht lera
ensue. Dr. Ha terlik and hi assistant
remained in their normal cmditlon;
Dr. Htockmayer Buffered from head
ache, slight fever and insomnia' Flerren
Bchuctz and Graf, two medical stu
dents, had alight purging, and Herr
lUse, a gentleman of a somewhat weak
constitution, who al.o volunt eered, suf
fered from nausea and vomiting, but
wasperiectiy wen again within a week.
The conclusion drawn bv I'rof. Striek
er, who directed the exparlmenta. Is
that In persons not physieially strong
the comma bacillus causes various
symptoms of Illness, but nit necessarily
cholera.
Which Won the Prise?
Three students of the Ecole dos
Itoaux Arts, Marseilles, were talking
in a cafe. "My dear fellow," said
tine; "I painted the other day a little
piece of pine wood In Imitation of
marble so perfectly that It sank to
the bottom of the water.". Toon!"
said another. "Yesterday I sus
pended my thermometer on the easel
that holds my 'View of the l'olar
Itegions.' It fell at once to twenty
below zero." "That's nothing, " said
the lat; "my portrait of the marquis
Is so lifelike that it has to be shaved
twice a week."
