LET THE QUARRELING BE
STOPPED.
While the troops of the United States
can overcome armed resistance should
any be offered it will be a long time before I
Confidence in the ability of the railroads :
to do their work can ba restored unless j
there is an agreement between tbe South- J
crn Pacific and their employes. Force j
may open a road, but it is only by restor- ;
ing goodwill that travel may be made j
safe. There seems to be but one point for
the Southern Pacific to yield to bring
about ordinary tranquillity. Mr. Knox, in j
behalf of the Riilway Union, declares in '
a letter to Attorney-General Hart the
readiness of tiie union to man all trains to
which a Pullman car is not attached.
Mr. Towns is ready to man all trains to
which a Pullman car is not ordinarily at
tached, but is not willing to man passen
ger trains to which Pullmans have or
dinarily been attached without moving
Pullmans also. The difference -tween
the two does not seem impossible. A
great deal depends upon its being bridged
over. Tne public is being ground between
the two parties. Tha principle in sight is
not sufficiently well defined to warrant a
fight over. The general demand is that
quarreling be stoppe i.
WHAT EUROPE SAYS. j
There have been two strikes the present
year which have cost the country in one |
way and another £20.000,000 each. There j
have been minor strikes which may add i
£10,000,000 to the amount. European na- j
."ions.are much concerned lest we cannot I
afford so much luxury. It has been esti
mated that American tourists spend 8100,- j
000,000 a year in Europe. There is no hint j
that we cannot afford this form of luxury. |
In fact, people living on the grand tour
ists' route would find themselves in a bad j
fix if the usual number of American tour
ists should not come along. An English i
journal has said that in the opinion of
English people the Government of the
United States is a failure. German jour
nalists are taking about the same view of
the American future. None of these critics
can imagine a people rising out of condi
tions now existing. Their only method
is to put down popular movements by
force. They have had experience in no
other way. In this country, however, some
other way must be devised. The people
must in a lawful way remedy evils that
all admit exist. The Government must be
popularized by the action of the people
themselves. The danger at present arises
from the belief that the administration is
lighting the battle of the great corporations.
The remedy is to elect ao administration
that will not fight the battles of the corpora
tions. If Mr. Cleveland, through the De
partment ot Justice, had notified the South
ern Pacific on tho outbreak of the trouble
that it must perform such of the duties of a
common carrier as itcould perform or sur
render its charter, there never would have
been a day without mail, freight and ordi
nary passenger service. Law could have
been found for such an order as easily as
for an order excusing the Southern Pacific
from running mail trains until such times
as it could run them with Pullman cars
attachments. Now the American people
will not always be controlled by corpora
tion lawyers. The corporations will get
all they can out of the Government as at
present administered, and when they find
that the control has slipped out of their
hands they will simply wonder why they
were not chased oil sooner. All these
changes will be effected without serious
trouble. In theory we have tue best form
of government in the world, and there is
wisdom and virtue enough in the people to
make practice conform to theory.
WILL GO OVER.
—- ■ .
It Is now pretty certain that the Central
Pacific funding bill will go over to the De
cember session of Congress. The events
of the past week have apparently con
vinced Attorney-General Oiuey that some
political risks would attend tbe enactment
of a law which in effect will enable the
Southern Pacific to transfer their debt to
the Government from their shoulders to
those of the Pacific Coast patrons of the j
roads. After the election it is assumed i
that members of Congress would feel more
independent. Some of them will without
doubt have been retired to private life, and
those who may bo re-elected will have two
years in which to avail themselves of the
agency of time to effac** their record.
A SCREW LOOSE SOMEWHERE.
Governor Maik ham has propounded a
problem. The thing be cannot compre
hend is the intense antagonism of railroad
men against their employers. This an
tagonism does not extend to wealthy citi
zens in general. There is no prejudice
against a man simply because he is rich.
These observations of Governor Mark
ham are correct, and the wonder is he does
not trace the antagonism he perceives to
its cause. It is not because the Southern |
Pacific Company is rich, but tho methods
by which it became rich that excite antag
onism. The people know that the owners
of the Southern Pacific Company owe the
Government 860,000,000, whicli they pro
less to be unable to pay. They know also
that this vast debt is the result of di- j
verting the earnings of the Central Pa
cific into the private coffers of the owners.
Tbey know that some of the money so
diverted from its proper use has been
used to corrupt all branches of the Gov
ernment. They know that with private
fortunes amounting to tens of millions
each, these men are asking Congress to
release them from the ordinary citizens'ob
ligation to pay their debts. Tney know also
that this company which refuses to pay its
debts, which crushes industries with its j
excessive charees, which vociferously de- I
mands protection from the public it has i
exasperated, has been an habitual delin- \
quent in its taxes. The antagonism of j
which Governor Markham bewilderingly
speaks is intensified at present by the j
persistent stand the company has taken in
the matter ol running Pullman cars. By
making a very small sacrifice either in the !
ay of money or pride the company could
have continued to perform all its essential
duties as a common carrier. But lather
than make that small sacrifice the indus
tries by which people live have been pros
trated. The peace of the State has been
jeopardized. It is not difficult to locate the
loose screw the Governor has discovered i
to exist. It rnav be found in his own head.

THE EARTHQUAKE AT CONSTAN- j
TINOPLE.
It is too soon to figure on the loss of life
caused by the earthquake at Constanti
nople, but it seems to have been small.
The portion of the city which suffered
most was the quarter known as Galata,
which contains lie banks, the chief mer
chants' offices and stores and the resi
dences of the Christians: but Pora, where
tne Embassadors live, joins Galata, and
Stamboul, with tha seraglio, is only sep
arated from it by a bridge across the
Golden Horn. The catastrophe has prob
ably been felt in both places, and Ameri
cans who have friends in Turkey will be
anxious for further news.
Constantinople has been spared the rav
ages of earthquake for nearly a century.
It was untouched by the terrible earth
quake of Zante in 1840, by that of 1855
which destroyed Broussa, and by mat of
1859 which killed thousands at Erzerotini.
The last destructive earthquake which
was felt at the Sultan's capital was that
of September, 1800, when the seraglio was
destroyed with most of its inmates. This
appeared to be the culminating effort of
the subterranean forces in the way of de
struction, and it followed a period of
nearly 300 years of comparative immunity. !
Previous to that period destructive earth- |
quakes of the most violent character had
been periodical. Fifty years after Mo
hammed's conquest nearly the whole city
was laid low and thousands of people
were overwhelmed, and for a thousand
years prior to that period earthquakes of
the utmost severity were periodical. From
the time when Constantino built his city
on the ruins of Byzantium to the Turkish
conquest each generation expected an
earthquake, and n*t a mere trembling of
the soil but a general overturning of land
and houses with a forced sepulture of
their tenants. There is hardly an old wall
or old monument in Constantinople which
does not bear marks of some ancient earth
quake.
We are compelled to infer from the mild
ness of the shocks which have occurred
since the beginning of the sixteenth cen- j
tury that the subterranean forces have '
been gradually declining in violence in j
that part of the world. While the theory j
of earthquakes is still debatable, and the j
world knows little more than it did when i
Mallett began his investigations, scientists i
are agreed that in some way or other they
are incidents of the settling of the globe
into its present conditions— a sort of sup
plementary sequel to the work of creation.
This notion would suggest the hypothesis
that as the world grows older the work
approaches completion, and that convul
sions due to subterranean energy grow
rarer. We certainly do not hear, a", the
present day. of earthquakes which destroy
life by wholesale. The two most conspic
uous examples of violent seismic action in
our day were the earthquake of Krakatoa
in 1881, and the one which occurred on the
Tokaido road, in Japan, it: October, 1892.
Both were said at the time to have been
terribly destructive. But the Dutch
authorities at Batavia now assert that the
loss of life by tho catastrophe at Kra
katoa was very much exaggerated, and at
the Seismic Bureau at Tokio it is thought
that 1000 would ba a closer estimate of the
destruction of lives in 1802 loan 10,000,
which was the original estimate.
it is impossible wholly to disbelieve the
historical records of the earthquake at
Antioch in the beginning of the second
century, when 150,000 people were unac
counted for, or of the earthquake in Syria
wnich was contemporaneous with the
spread of Moslemsm, and in which 500
towns are said to have been destroyed with
all their inhabitants. These stories may
he exaggerations, out even allowing for
some exaggeration, enough would remain
to demonstrate that even in the historical
period earthquakes were far more destruc
tive than they are now. The gradual sim
mering down of the seismic force is shown
even in our brief chronicle. On his march
north, only a little over a hundred years
ago, Portala reported to his superior offi
cers that while ho was on the- march his
men were thrown off their feet by tin
earthquake. In our time people are not
quite sure they hava felt an earthquake
till some neighbor confirms their impres
sion.
SWEPT ASIDE.
A Chicago correspondent is much pleased
with the brusqueness with wliich Judge
Grosscup swept aside ihe Plea of privacy
and privilege which the Western Union
Telegraph Company urged as a reason
why the messages sent by President Debs
should not be surrendered to the court.
While the decision of the Judge in this
case may not be subject to criticism, one
cannot help a feeling uf regret that a little
of the same brusqueness has not been
shown when managers of transportation
companies charged with violations of the
interstate commerce law have excused
themselves from an obligation to give te._

timony on the ground that their private
business should not be exposed to the
public The somewhat general complaint
that the public do not respect law so much
as it should may be attributed to the fact
that law doos not respect itself so much
as it should. There should not be one
ruling for the rich and another for the j
poor. There should be no law for a presi
dent of a labor union that does not apply
to the president of a great transportation
company.
THE TROUBLES OF AUSTRALIA.
The creat collapse of the banks and
bnilding societies of Australia took place
in 1592, but now in 1894 the Governments
of the .ever..l colonies report that the
prevailing poverty is appalling. A meeting
was lately held at Sydney, at which a Gov-
I ernment official stated that the cases of
destitution which required public relief
had doubled in a year, and that poverty
was steadily on tho increase, with its usual
concomitants, crime and suicide. A year
"go, or thereabouts, a number of unem
ployed men in .New South Wales cmi
! grated to Paraguay in the hope of better
| ing their condition. They find it impossible
to obtain fond and shelter, and are In the
most deplorable straits. Men and women
are selling themselves to planters, volun
tarily placing themselves on the footing of
slaves. They have appealed to Australia
for means to return home.
The best remedy for tbo Australian
trouble should be found in utilizing the
conditions of the country. Vast tracts of
land are adapted for the production of
j wheat aud vegetables, and still larger
I areas are suited for pasturage. In a re
i gion which will produce unlimited quanti
| ties of bread, beef and mutton, there is no
' excuse for starvation. It ought to be made
! possible for the unemployed thousands Id
| Xew* South Wales and Victoria to form
| co-operative colonies, abd to support them
! selves by the product of co-operative farms
on the unoccupied lands of those colonies
Of course, this plan would involve a re
distribution of labor and industry. Aus
tralia has been a country of large land
holders and well-paid workmen. 'Iho
country has been cut up into vast tracts of
pasture-land, broad wheat farms and ex
tensive sheepwalks. The owners of these
wide properties obtained from hanks and
i building societies the means to develop their i
! estates and to meet their heavy payrolls.
j When the banks suspended and their cus- j
j tomers were called upon not only to pay
; their acceptances but to meet assessments, j
the landlords were brought to a standstill. I
They could neither go on with the im
provements which were necessary to make |
their properties lucrative, nor could they I
maintain the force which such large prop
erties required. They were compelled to |
stop both sources of outlay. Thus thou- i
sands of men who had been earning lib
eral wages and living in comfort were sud
denly plunged into poverty. As usual in
sucli cases, they appealed to their several
governments to undertake public work so
as to furnish employment to the idle. Bnt
the governments themselves were crippled
by the interest charge on a debt incurred
for public works already constructed. To
anticipate the future again was to court
bankruptcy.
Some months ago Sir George Dibbs,
Prime Minister of New South Wales, of
fered encouragements to miners who were
willing to glean in abandoned diggings, i
and to forage in the hills for new gold de- j
posits. It is understood that the plan has
been successful, and that the metallic out
put of Australia will show au iucrease i
this year. It would seem that the same
scheme should be tried in the agricultural
field. The colonial Governments own
vast tracts of fertile unoccupied land and
i several tracts in private ownership are
ready to be abandoned by the owners who
cannot pay taxes thereon. It should be
possible to organize at Sydney and Mel
bourne parties of colonists to work these
lands. That would be better than sub
sisting on public relief, Mero hunger can
always be quickly relieved in a ecu:.
wbere the production of food, with a fairly
favorable season, is a question of weeks.
MUSIC AND MUSICIANS.
The "Serva Padrona" is an opera lhat from
time to time is "revived" in some one or other
of the big European theaters and never fails if
at all adequately performed to create a pro
found impression. It has just been played
again at the Manzoni Theater in Milan and has
awakened renewed interest In the brief but
prolific life of the composer. Pergolesl. Giovan
Lattista Pergolesl may justly be considered
i the father of modern music In Italy, perhaps in
Europe. He was born at Jest In 17 J 0 aud
| died at Pozzuoli ln 1736. Educated In the
j conservatory of "Christ's Poor" at Naples, he
j attracted the attention of the curious by the
j unheard-of passages that he Improvised in
i executing chromatic progressions, based ou
harmonic successions, at thai time unknown.
His originality procured him the best masters,
although harmony at that epoch had scarcely
been raised to the dignity of a separate study.
At the age of 21 Pergolesl composed "Tin;
Conversion of St. William," which was per
formed in a convent. This was followed by
another opera and churcli music. Gradually
his works, which . rapidly succeeded one an
! other, began to be r> cognized, but lie died at
the age of 20, and then the world suddenly
awoke to ills true merit and gave him a
posthumous fame. Ills "Serva Fadrona!' be
came the, model of all Italian opera bou lie.
Pergolesl' tiue masterpiece, however, was his
"S.abai Mater," which lie wrote for the con
fraternity of Sau I.uigl di Palazzo for $10.
The •'Hymn to Apollo" Is becoming almost as
hackneyed In Europe as "Two Little Girls iv
Line," and the critics are beginning to protest
against Its abuse. J. Weber of Le Temps says:
"There was in former times a Greek town sit
uated on the j-Egean Sea which was celebrated
for ibe simplicity of its Inhabitants. They
possessed a pretty little statuette of Minerva
and they placed it at the summit of a very high
; column In order th it ad the world might see it.
That is about what people are doing at this
moment with the famous 'Hymn to Apollo.'
The work actually figured on the programme
I of a recent concert as being peiformed with
j chorus and 'orchestra.' It only remains now to
rewrite it io quicker time for a military band,
j as people do light opera airs. Even its ad
! mirers concede that in the notation of the
j •Hymn to Apollo' there are obscurities. For
tin; rest, it should be sung In Greek in the
fashion iii whicli the ancient Greeks sang, or
I rather declaimed, an art of which we are
I Ignorant. The hymn ought to be accompanied
by the lyre in unison with the voice, while to
day ihey make use of the harp or even the
orchestra."
An anecdote lias just been published in Paris
! whicli appears to be new, as far as publicity is
I concerned, though it regards Monslgny, a com
! poser who was very popular in France about
1 the middle of the last century. Mousignv's
'•Deserter" was revived at the Opera Comique
about a year ago and his "Rose et Collas" iv
1862, but both .bowed the Inferiority of the
singers of to-day to those of a century ago, and
the works were unsuccessful, not for lack of
beauty in the music, bus because there were no
artists sufficiently schooled to interpret (hem
weil. The anecdote relates that after the
French Kevolu lou, Monslgny, who had iv his
old age abandoned the career of music, went
occasionally to ihe Comedie Italieune tonieet
old friends, though lie usually remained in the
greenroom. One ■ veiling the door of a stage
box remained halt open and some strains of
music leached the old composer's ears. "What
a pretty thine they are playing!" he cried. It
was an aria from "Kose et Collas," and he bad
forgotten His own music.
'•Le Figaro" lias recently been publishing a
scries of "Souvenirs d'Actrices," in which the
most popular stars of the Paris stage eive some
interesting personal experiences. The singer,
Yvette Gullbert, Is tee latest on the list, and
liev story is a comical laic of woe, describlne
tlie inconvenience and ridicule i-o wbicli she is
exposed, owing to the lac tliat she has a
double who constantly copies and impei senates
her. Yvette says: "The worst Is that my
health suffers from it. For the last three years
people have been saying, 'The false Yvetie is i
growing fleshy.. Then I hastily make mysell
tliiu— vapor baths, diy to?.st, massage. Two
months alteiward this satanic Yvette grows
thin. Then 1 fly to arsenic pills, farinaceous
food and every other fattening substance. My
crowning woe is that she always bluffs me by j
Retting thin in the summer, aud naturally it is
I, who, Irvine to get fleshy, suffer and per
spire and stifle and end by getting out of breath
when I sing. And that is what celebrity leans |
in."
"Music" is responsible for the following j
statement respecting; Clarence Eddy, the well- j
known organist: "When a gentleman arrives i
at competence, and the hist push for proles- j
sional posittou has placed him upon the very
pinnacle, many charming possibilities open to |
him. Among them is that of gentleman
farming. Such a position ol affluent ease has I
been reached by Mr. nd Mrs. Clarence Eddy,
and for some years they have been developing
a mile coontry place iii California, with liberal i
fruit possibilities. The orange grove is now
coming into bearing, and the first fruits have
been gathered tins year. Afier Mr. and Mrs.
Eddy returned from llieir annual February out
ing some of their friends received baskets of
oranges of a particularly large size and choice
flavor. Each orange was wrapped In Japanese
paper, bearing the legend O. O. O. (trademark).
•Opus One from the Orpheus Orange Orchard,
.Riverside, Cal., 1804.' "
The Princess Beatrice's new songs, written
to poetry by Lord I.eaconsfleld, were recently
sung at Miss Janotba's benefit concert, given
iv Daily's Theatar, London. "The Blue-eyed
Maiden's Song" and "The Green Cavalier"
proved to be decidedly above the average of
amateur efiorts. The Princess Beatrice is au
excellent musician, being a good performer ou
the pianoforte, the harp aud the orgau. She
has written several church pieces, which often
form a. part of tho services at St. George's
Chapel, Windsor.
Paris papers say that Emperor William has
several times expressed the wish that au opera
might be composed, which, takeu from Prussian
history, might be treated with complete Ger
man Chauvinism. Otto Bendes, the journall-t,
last year expelled from France, has undertaken
this task. In his retreat In London he has
wiittenthe text for an opera entitled "The
King's Guard," and Leonbardt Emlle Bach has
written the music. The first representation
will take place next autumn at the Berlin
opera.
The Idea of effecting an arrangement for
Thomas' Chicago Orchestra io play In New
Yoik part of the time is understood to have
been dropped for lhe present. New York
would have been glad to get Thomas, but de
shed not io have a Chicago orchestra. More
over, New YorK desired to control the time of
the concerts, without regard to the Chicago end
of tlie partnership. It is nol unlikely, however,
that Thomas and the Chicago orchestra will be
heard in New York next season.
The wealth of Italy in theaters Is shown by
the following statistics: In Catania there is one
theater to 1800 of the population, in Bologna
one to 20,000, iv Vienna one to __,000, in
Milan and Tin in one to 30,000, in Rome one to
31,000. Against this compare Berlin, with one
to 81,00u, Hamburg one io 110.000, Vienna
one to 138,000, Loudon one to 145,000.
A musical competition has just been an
nounced by the city of Paris for all citizens of
Fiench birth. The works submitted must be
original, oi high style and grand proportions.
Tliey may be either symphonic or dramatic.
i he manuscript must be scut to the Bureau of
Fine Arts at the Hotel de Vide in March, 1896.
'Saint-Saens' "Phryne" has had a great suc
cess at the Royal Opera-bouse In Stockholm.
Tire title-role was sung by a prima donna of
light opera, Mme. Petterscon • Norrles, the
Swedish Judlc, who in this work appeared in
I giand opera for the first time. She was greatly
j admired both as actress and singer:
A report comes from an authentic source that
among Meyerbeer's legacies have been found a
melodrama, "La .leunesse de Goethe," many
youthful works, psalms and conglomerations
of compositions, which originated when
"L'Alricaine" was under construction, but were
not used in that opera.
Spiro Samara, the successful composer of
"La Martlre," studied for some time iv Paris
with Leo Deiibes. It Is owing to the en*
couragement of the Milan publisher Sonzoj.no,
however, that his works have been produced
and that he has finally written his way through
failures to succss.
The tablet at Mayence, commemorating the
birthplace of Peter Cornelius, will be dedicated
on October _C, the anniversary of the death of
the composer. The Ltederkranz Society ot
Mayence, to which is due the success of the
affair, has the management of the ceremony.
Miss Lalla Miranda, the favorite soprano In
Victoria, has lett Australia for England. Pre-
I vious lo In r departure the Mayor of Melbourne
held a reception In her honor, and she bears
with her a citizens' address signed, among,
others, by the Premier and Chief Justice.
eingartner, who is engaged for 189G by the
Royal Theater at Munich, has asked for his im
mediate release at Berlin, but the Intendent
has refused on the ground that the interests of
the royal opera demand his presence there until

Mme. Richard of the Paris Grand Opera abso
lutely prohibits her pupils from using any scent.
When any of them come to her perfumed she
