Mi. Morrison's tarin bill, so its author s<iys,
would reduce the revenue of the Ration twenty
millions. Of this ieo millions would be on
account of lower linties OD sugar j live millions
by increasing the free list ; anti the rest by
promiscuous taritl-tinkeritig. This estimate is
in the nature of a guess, and the Republican
members of the. Comm ttee on Ways anti lit ans
will certainly not allow the me?ore to be
Tushed through their room without a si-arching
examination. Tho business interests of the
I country will waut to be heard in this matter,
too.

The Governor of New-Mexico has doubtless
struck a popular key in a t-ninmunicatioii ad?
dressed by him to the English managers of a
New-Mexico cattle company, the stock of
which i.s also held by Englishmen ; but consid
?cring that thc matter in dispute is a fight be
tween cowboys anti Mexican sheep herders, it
?OOBM a trille forced. An Kn^lishman nuning
property in this country has as much right to
defend it by force, if necessary, as a native
boin American. I'cihaps this ought not to be ;
? yet it is so, and when this sail altair of the cow?
boy's gets into the coutts, the Govotnoi will
find out the truth evin if he does not know it
now.
-w
There does not seem to be any good reason
why the owners of property wool of Central
I'ark should not begin to number their houses
where the streets actually begin, lt is, of
course, possible to smile anti remark that a
per.-on who objects to living at ? No 312 Wati
?-th-st.'1 solely because it is Mt*No. 12," is
silly. Yet if it is a fact that many such people
exist and that property over there will not sell
so well under bii_b numbers as low, wby not
gmt Uie property-owners' request . Nobody
will be harmed and many people may be
pleased. Moreover, the greater the value of
houses and lots, the greater the amount of taxes
paid on them into the city treasury.
The counsel of the Mapata Railroad Com
miltee professes much more confidence than
anybody else feels, that the missing Aldermen
will turn up as soon as they know they are
Wanted foi the purposes of this investigation.
If they do not appear that, of course, will be a
confession of guilt, for they cannot all produce
a doctor's certificate, as John Keenan has been
able to do, to the etlect that they will probably
be sick at Lakewood until the crniimiuer
adjourns. Uuf Jitunately their absence will not
enable the Grand Jury Io indict these Alder?
men, and condemnation without punishment
they will not mind ; so they have really pot an
advantage of the public. Hut if any one
doubted before that this investigation was
needed the disappearance of these men must
?ettie all doubts in his mind.
The American steamship companies do not
worry much over the Postmaster-General's
latest attempt to annoy them. In the lirst plm-e
they do not believe Congress will pan his bill
to make them cany the mails and take just
What Mr. Vilas happens to feel like giving
them; and in the second place, if the bill
should become a law, they think it wuuld not
be tustnined as constitutional. There is no
doubt that the tom pa ni es can be compelled to
cai ry the mails, on tho game principle that
allows the State to take a man's land if neces?
sary ; but adequate compensation must be
given for the land or the strvice, or the act
would be unconstitutional. Adequate compeii
aatioD is all that the companies ask, yet that is
precisely what Mi. Yilan is de ie nu in ed not to
give. ^
Apparently the Piesideut is casting aliotit for
a loophole of escape in mm controversy with
the Senate about papers. In his reply through
Mr. Garland, Mr. Cleveland simply said he
did not think public interests would be pro?
moted by the production of ? papers and doc?
uments r relating to removals from otlice.
Through Mr. Lamar however, he replies thut
the papers asked for are tt ui.olliciat papers,"
Intimating thereby that they are of a confiden?
tial nature. But be does noi say so frankly,
and be fails eutircly to get around tbe point so
well made by Senator .Sherman that in this
matter the Senate is asking for information,
not reasons, and that there can be no distinc?
tion between information for the ixecutive
branch ot the Government and information bu
the legislative branch, especially when acting
iu an executive capacity.

Professor Richmond M. Smith, of Columbia
College, said some interesting ami instructive
things last night it the discussion of tho Con?
gregational Club on ** Christianity anti Labor."
lb* snowed, for instance, that Christianity Itail
raised the laboring maa from slavery to serf?
dom, and from serfdom to the estate of a free?
man, if Christianity has done so moah for
labor in the past, might it not ilo even mole in
the future? Not solely of course the Chris?
tianity Which talks e,instantly about, doing
one's duty in the state of life to which it has
pleaaed God to call one; but that kimi also
which teaches that the employer has duties
toward his employes which he cammi nfiord to
neglect. _________________________________
PILING TV THE MULWEE
It is reported that some members of the
Aqueduct Commission look with favor on thc
plan to line the new water tunnel throughout
its whole length. Bnt Chief Engineer Cunnii
has expressed the opinion that this i.s only
necess.iry lora sundi patt of the course. .Most
of the tunnel is through dense rock where th, re
will be no danger td' serious leakage or of
obstructions from masses splitting oft from the
roof or sides. To line the whole tunnel will
involve an expense of a million and a half ot
dollars. To loud ihe city with this additional
burden without tin* clearest warrant of necessity
would be criminally prodigal.
The contracts alieady ont for the aqueduct
make a total of mop* than twelve millions ot j
dollars, lt lins been decided to build the Sodom I
deni and reservoir also. The estimates fm- tin* |
Quaker l.rieige dani and reservior anti for the |
changes made necessary bj that cloud-topping
scheme foot up over five millions atnl a half.
Even if the commissioners should decide to
have mercy on the taxpayers of this generation
ami to postpone the piling np of the mans of
tb bt which the Quaker Bridge enterprise would
involve, the increase ot the water supply, with?
out the lining ol the aqueduct, will cost the city
at bast fifteen millions, as the work already
contraeted for must necessarily be followed by
much other work of a costly sent before the
greatei pressure and the hillel flow will be blt
in all pints of the city where lin y are neeib-il.
If the Quaker Mriili_c profeel with it** enormous
possibilities is entered upon, the total eoti will
not fall far short of twenty-fife millions, for
every one knoxs how Ihe outlay on hugo public
iiml. rtnkings keeps constantly swelling.
It is then the duty of all ihe members of the
commission to give du- closest scrutiny io every
expansion of the original plan, which propose*
to enlarge Un- expenditure. Tln-y should guard
the interests of the taxnavers as geslonsly as if
this were u matter of their own private bnsinena.
Any outlay whieh ihe chief engineer condemns
Should t-i-it.nnlv be rejected. Mr. ('bunn is
not parsimonious nor will he oppose anything
really impor'anl for the oMPpleteness, strength
anti symmetry of the undertaking for which in- '
issn largely responsible, lin* oom missioners
are expose d to the strongest of temptations. Ii
is only nan.ral that everf one of them should
desire to make the colona il enterprise with
which his nunn* la associated aa imposing and
as memorable as possible. The mightier tbs
operation ike wider nnd lsrger thefameofall
connected with it. Therein lies the dangerous
fascination of the Quaker Bridge scheme. No
such dam as thal proposed eiistl in ihe world.
Will it not be a line thing to be spoken of in
after generations as engineer or commissioner
for the (aile*! ami thickest nnd most atupendnus
dam that man ever pul together 1 And the
thought of a beautifully rounded, perfectly
Symmetrical, completely lined aqueduct is also
attractive to the lay mind, lint whose money
are. commissioners ami engineers spending 1
Not their own. They an- heaping np millions
of debt with appalling celerity, anti ii is ju-t
because the cost of tin- aqueduct, the dams ami
the reservoirs does not figure in th.- aunual
tax levy and is not felt instantly by the lax
payer that they may err in the direction of ex?
travagance. Rut every cent they anond 11111*1 I..
accounted for anti must come finally oul ;?f th's
tax-corroded city. No lowering ambition lor
fame in connection with great and glorious
winks, na desire to magnify or tn prolong the
privileges and powers of high office, should
mislead the men to whose can- this momentous
trust ia committed into any extravagant or even
doubtful expenditure.
THE SYSDHAIE AM) HIE MJNERR
It is asserted that one of the members ol the
banking syndicate winch propones (<> control
the railroads lending lute New-York ami the
anthracite coal mines, being asked what the
miners would have to say about it, replied,
"The miners be -" not blessed. It is ex?
ceedingly probable lhat Ihi* story does Injuntice
to somebody, if there is any member ol the
syndicate bo foolish as not to realise that the
sm tass of such an undertaking will depend
almost entirely upon the ilisno.siiion of the
miners regarding it, hf is nol winn enough as n
banker to di SOI VC a part in any Important
financial operation, That is, if the operation is
not exclusively designed to put up prices
temporarily in onler to unload stocks upon In?
nocent oittsitb-is?aa uadertaking to which it is
presumed some of the well-known banking
eatabliabmenta Inteicated in this movement
would not lend their nantes.
No sane business man, in these days, over*
looks the luci that if capital combines lt) raise
the prices of products or services, labours also
are sure to combine to demand a huger return
for their labor. Tin- coke Combination was mil
controlled by sensible hiisinc?s men, il those
wini engaged in it did not anticipate the demand
for higher wages. They probably did, bul
imagined that they could force the obi set of
Impound winkers to submit by bringing in ?
new lot of Imported workers. It la gratifying
to know that in thia cold-blooded calculation
they uro disappointed. Tbe new men from
Hungary, having mon- real manhood in Ihem
than the periOM U ho expected to use them w ith
such brutal cruelty, refused to take the bread
from lin* mouths of ot her workers by accepting
the wages o.h'icd, and the prolonged closing of
most of the coke furnaces is the natural con?
st a-iience.
li. gould be wise for au anthracite syndicate
tee take into account the fact that lin- minali ot
-Eastern Peaasylvanla an* al leas! as intelligent
and as capable of combined nd iou as Ihe
Hungarians of Connellsville. The miner!
know that prices of anthracite coal are now
very low, and though they have Battered
severely during the past year, they have been
wiser than the Monongahela miners, and have
not tried tu get aa ail vance in wages out eif ii
depreeaed ind unprofitable business when .ab?
jected to unusual competition. Because of tin
very intelligence tims shown, however, thees
name miners are the more likely io insist upon
good wages when 11 combination secures good
pi ices for coal. If the companies, by winking
only half lime, can force tbs public to pay
high prices fora smaller quantity of coal mineda
the men will naturally insist that tiny shall bu
paid for half ayeut's work enough to live on the
whole year. That demand the cumnuuies can
not reasonably refuse, nor will they find it
possible to make the minni and the railroads
profitable if thejr oombiue against the public
ami against the miners at the sallie time.
Every shrewd hanker secs, therefore, that the
companies, in order tn git profits t.ir them?
selves by ratting down the output of coal, will
have to shale those profits with the miners of
coal.
NfiT A GOOD TE-ATV.
The bimetallic treaty proponed by the leader
of tin- German Agrarian party ia intended to
include Austria, Trance, the nations of Ihe
Latin Union, and the Doited Bi itee. The
scheme is t.i make coinage tree in all these
countries on the French ratio of 15**? to 1, to
exclude foreign coins fr m circulation within
these countries, ami to make, silver the -ole
medium of international exchanges between
the nations nt ihe proponed Union until ihe
price shall reach Ho"-} I. per ounce, at Whieh it
is supposed that silver would pass at par with
gobi. Ii ia not likely that tbe Ullin in Govern?
ment will consent to any such propooil iou : first,
because it would be of un practical benefit to
the nations of the Union ai a whole if it were
ado] ted ; aod second, becuusc it wonld be too
humiliating to Berinany to propone to Prance
exactly thc monetary lyetemubieh German]
aeorninlly rejected, utter the Pr.*h indemnity
W.is pud. W he'll Germany had received
?tl,000,000,000 in gobi from France, it was the
German buist thal this great sum enabled thal
nation to establish a monetary system far
superior lo that of Fiance. It is nol to be
expected thal Prince Biamarcl will now say to
France, " We have fooled nwny the vast sum
.von from you, and find your monetary syetem
the best ai'ter all." The Agrarian leader does
not know mneh of the German people, if he
expects thal course to be taken.
Nor could the United States nflord to join
any Union on such tenn-. The settlement in
silver of Inteinstionsl balances bet ween the
nations of such a Union would mean an un?
loading tm the United Stales of the vast.
German surplus of silver and tbe still greater
French sui plus, at a pi ice even higher illili that
which oar present coinsge act attempts to
establish. The United States has no debts to
pay those nations. Ii has ye rly balances due
from them. Mut this country would at the
same time be compelled tn p iy to (Ste it Britain
in gobi tne enormous balances due from this
country on tr nie erith nearly all the outside
world, and lin* interest on debts held abroad,
ami freight money on our products exported.
This sort ol arrangement would nuke the
United S'att-s the world's dumping ground tm
silver, and Would empty on iis all lin-silver
th it the Latin Union and ('.etininv have to
spare, while taking all our gold to pay balnnces
io England. The proper course for itu*' country |
is by suspension of coinage to compel both
England ami Germany t<> adopt a winer and
safer policy.
A Cl//lt sc, CASE.

Such eases, however, an- lily lue, and the
circumstances musl be peculiar which render
the m.tinten n ce tit so complicated a deception
practicable. 80 tat the conditions do not seem
lo have been pus.-nt in the case ol the mau
killed tin the Georgia Pacific Railroad, the only
circumstance tending in any wai tn create
doubt being Un- possession bj Mis. Weaver of a
letter written by a .pen tbe like of which was
bunill on lin- body ni tin- supposed Texan
millionaire, Btylogrnphic pens, however, are
veiy common, amt il maj In- argurd also that
the finding ol tin- pen only strengthens the
probability that .Mis. Weaver'* identification is
right
It tines not appear that every poasible effort
ha* yet been math* to determine the tact nt
Pierce's death. It bia homo was in Texas it
enema poseibla thal he may after all be travel?
ling somewhere in thal State, ami as in thal
event lu* might easily have missed ihe Georgia
newspapers, his silence would not necessarily
have any significance. Vet Pierce's son, iii
Texas, appears to have concluded that his
father was dead, and tins again complicates 111?
llialtei. Holli the men seem to ha fe been well
ami widely known, Mani people are equally
confident of tbe identity on boib sides. Wilh
sufficient psinstaking, bower er, tbeie ought lo
be definite proof one way or tint other. If mi
double life has lu en lived it is plain enough
tbat either Weaver or Pierro is still living. In
that event the survivor, whie ever it is, ought
to be round. The theory already hinted at,
lliat om* man was killed mid lin- other has dis?
appeared purposely, while nol unthinkable,
siill savors of extravagance such aa ene floes
not look for in real life, We do nol see that the
blackmail theory has nindi supt.ort. ito!li

sons-in-law, nor business partners can settle a

A elli sc E roll KCONOMT.
The outlook for anything like economy in ox
pendituiea in the present House ot Representa?
tives is not good. A bnly thal hus illino
nothing so far except to WrtSte its timi'cati
hardly be expected tn act w l-ely on econ oin ic.il
recommendations. Bul Becretary Manning has
given to it au opportunity for reducing thu
expenses for Collecting the revenue which will
oller a fair teat of Demoeratio pretension-. In
twenty-three of the euetoma diatricta last year
there were no collections of duties on imports
or tonnage. At such places, Secretary Manning
says, the often ot Collector or Surveyor is
practically h sinecure, tho ollie!.il wnrk coti
sistiug chiefly in the pteparutioii of the numer?
ous rt tums relinked by law. Many of thcuo
returns simply contain the words a BB transac?
tions."
The Secretary leeommenda the abolition of
such unproductive offlcea, by oonaolidating dia
liicts. Whatever wt!, mav t>e necessary In
the issuing of documents to vessels tn-for the
prevention of smuggling caa h- done by
de| Uties OT inspectors al such places. Tin*
Secretary alto recommends died salaries anil
the abolition of all diatom house fees. They
now amount to about ftfOO.OOO, which is
a small part of the p6.000.000 expended for
the collection of the revenue fiann custom*).
I l.e-e tees welt' il!l|.o*el oil the tll'oiv that
tiny would cover the cost of collection. The
Secretary is doubtless righi in recommending
their abolition. .Several of his predecessors
have made the rome recommendations in re?
gard to the consolidation of districts. Kow if
the House does ne,t i ii ink non of these- twenty
three oilicis t linn it doss of economy it will act
tm the Secretary's recommendation, lt appears
from this report that there aro fifty-five ports
of delivery where the compensation of officers
exceeds the entire collect ions. For instance,
at Cedar Keys, Florida, it cost the Government
$23 for eery .fl in revenue collected ; at Nan?
tucket, M.iss.. |10 10; York. M.line, |fi 24;
