The report of ihe foundering of the revenue
cut Ui Manhattan with all on board tests upon
the testiiin.ny of two men, who appear to be
crvdible witnesses. J Hi ey sity they saw her
oink in the gale which clew hard ott Xew
Ilaven yesterdny morning, and their story is
accepted as crirrect ulong the Sound. But it
seems incredible almost that Lieutenant Tozier
would hnve left New-Haven as he did nnless
bis veriS-l was peifecllv seaworthy. It is posni
ble to hope that the Manhattan may yet come
safely into port.
e
Tbe poor creature, bonnvan or Doiran, who
jumped from Ihe Brooklyn Bridge some woeks
ago, bas tried it again at the new suspension
bridge at Niagara Kill:*, and has not come ott
so easily. Om* ri1- was broken and his genera)
condition is pretty bal. Donovan's last remark
be fine he .limped?a lt I tlie, I die game "?will
doub.le.is tire the hearts of the Fourth Ward ;
but his peiformanoe will incline intelligent
people more than ever to the theory that no
obstacle should be placed in the way of fools
?who want to imitate him.
According to The Du Hy Telegraph, London ia
in no danger tram the Sui ilisis, wno h.ive ad?
vert ist d a big meeting in Trafalgar S.-uare on
the Lord Mayor's Day, to-morrow, for the very
BJBB4 IBBBBB that the working classes do not
core anything about it, and laugh at the rabid
talk of the Budalirt.. leaders. This is an en?
couraging prophecy which will reassure timid
Londoners. A dangerous element will doubt?
less t-iowd the Square, but the police ought 10
be able to keep mere ruttiuns in order. There
is nu ju.li:.ca involved iu kuoeking down and
ariesting disordeily idlers who have no griev?
ances when they do not have io work.

The establish mont of docking facilities on
Staten Island for Atlantic steamships is likely
soon to cease to be a (rood thing in theory, and
become a good thing in fact. Some nu I road
men from the Northwest have jnst purelm-u-d a
comparatively large traci of land near Quar?
antine where they will build docks, and 200
acres in land which they will convert into
Block yards, with the view of shipping cattle to
England more easily and cheaply. This is a
step in the development of Staten Island which
New-York business men will watch with inter?
est. Oue of ita first eftects ought to bu seen on
tho scale of fees for lighterage und w harlage
in this city.

Evidently Thomas Walker, brother of the
mau who was mysteriously and fatally wound?
ed in a Hi-sUr-sL resort on Saturday flight,
does not like a fuss. What is the uso, he a-ks,
of stirring up the matter ; his brother is dead
and can't be brought to life; he had no family ;
.arther inquiry would du no good; and, really,
be uitit-t decline to say anything moro about
it Fortunately the police do not share this
Opinion, and doubtless Mr. Walker will be
trilling to tell all he knows presently, lt does
not follow, however, tbat because the niau
talks in tbis way he is guilty of complicity in
bis brother's death. (Ie only expresses in a
peculiar way the views common among men iu
the lower walga of life, who misconceive the
motive of justice to be revenge.
Some of tbe New-York Democrats are actu?
ally bright auoagh to see now how important
Uie win kingmill.'* vote is, and shrewd enough
to try to catch it. Tbis is ths reason why the
County Democracy of the XVlllth Aaaemblj
District have so hastily adopted a resolution
ar__iujt ConKiess to "promote by legislation
the interests of labor by protacting'ils produc?
tions against foreign rivulry." Tfc__ is Ilubeit
0. Thompson's old district, by the way, when
political common sens** ha.- nev -r been luckin
Wo eongratui_tte ibe leaders of this branch of
tba Couoly Democracy on their perspicacity ;
but workingmen ara too old birds to be caught
ky such cbafl, even if. it, wero ottered by tbe
tire organisation. Workers for wages in
?w-York understand perfectly that the partv
which tiny must look for Protection is tho
?publican party, which has always acted it)
eir defence.
H HONG SWE UP.
In every resiwct save one tho tendency of the
cent elections is prejudicial to the industrial
id cnininercial interests of the country. It ts
leas aita gain al great, importance that the
?feat of many fiee-trade meniheis, ami
peoiiilly of (toni*) influential leaders, laaaBBfl
e probability of RuceeslTful assault upon the
rill this winter, while tho reduction of tli?'
cinorratic niijoritv' rai data the success of
rh eft irta at the Mm session of the next
ingress tighly improbable. .Sd far, industry

? i>oi t lint tunta substantial improvement ia
mie imlusti'iitl directions is likely to follow,
id it might be more general but for tnis
lievous influences of a different nature, which
ie recent flections will probably bring into
peration.
It is g bad thine for the conntrv to have the
est anil nioHt experienced men of tho partv
i power stricken down or rel ired. The
iitortty cann nt hope to dictate an .-ilirmtiti ve
olicy. If its tremendous superiority in lead'
rahip and ability sliouhl enable it to thwart
ie majority at every point, gilli, it could only
revent the adoption of measures, and if the
(glorify hud not the window or practical
toxicity to ofter really wise bills, the result
mild bo another u Do-nothing Conitress."
lenee it is nut a fortunate thing for thc coun
y that so capable and expetienced a man a*
lr. Hewitt has been withdrawn from his place
) CoDgresa. Several S nithern leaders el
special intelligence and practical ability have
olnntarily declined re-election, or have been
?tired, and the defeat of Mr. Morrison himself
'it rend'-rs vinous legislation on the turill
in Minn less likely, has also this unfavorable
spect, that it leaves the chairmanship of the
'ommittee of Ways and Mentis to some man
ertainly of the aime opinions, and probably
ot as experienced or as sincere.
The f'ight which the labor voters have given
lie Deniociatic party is sure to inti leuce all
lie denngogiies of that party tn the must dee*
crate ell iris. Thev >ill set themselves at once
gpropefM all the crazy thing- that they can

i'he panic of Democratic deni igugucs is likely

The I mi'iioi Spnt'itor has some curiong com
nents upou Mr. Binnie's speeches in Pmnsyl
'ania. lt charge., him erith " coi] letting with
he Prohibitionist party " in M.iinennd with
itriving to identify Republican lara "not
1 meit ly wits* tba maintenance of the existing
* tarifl, but with an anti-free-trade policy of
?tba moateztreaie*aiad?a policy based on tbe
??notion thiit palrintism and the welfare of the
'Nation alike demand that Pioteotion shall be
* upheld, and, if necessary, increased." Th>
assumption that Mr. Blaine was ? coquetting"
with the third peity in his own State, when in
reality he was sternly arraigning it for its tnon
Itreajhl ingratitude to the Bepablieu party,
which had enacted and steadily enforced pro?
hibitory Ian's, ts fantastic, to say the least.
Equally inaccurate is the generalization on his
tai ifl spi-edies in Pennsylvania. Mr. Blaine's
chief thesis has been the necessi'v of tarill
legislation in the near future, since the grow?
ing surplus enano! l>e med in the reduction of
the National debt, ile has contended that it
is of paramount importance tor tho Republi?
can party to regain control of the Government
since the tariff schedules must be revised, and
this work must be done by the frierds rather
than the foes of Atneiican industries. That
he is the champion of 1'iotection cannot ls
contioverted ; Mit it, is palpably absurd as well
us unjust to represent lum as tillering stubborn
ieisistance to thiifl revision or as advocating
" Pr<?tectiou of un extreme kimi."
While this London journnl is seriously at
fault in its summaries of Mr. Blaine's speeches
in Maine and Pennsylvania, it accurately
represents English opinion when it gaye:
"Should the struggle of two years hence act
44 nally take place over Protection, and should
" Mr. Blaine be able to get the full support of
44 the anti-Free-Traders, the Btruggle viii) Pe
"extremely djse. If, however. Protection is
" not really made the dividing line, Mr. Cleve?
land is pretty sure of victory. For ourselves
44 we wish Mi. Cleveland success in any event."
The President had powerful English support
in 1884 and still letains it, because he is the
leader (de jure if not de facto) of a party that
is constantly plotting against the taiift and
American industries. " lu any event" he will
have the sympathies of English manufacturers
and of all the recognized agencies ol English
opinion. But in view of Mr. Blaine's stirring
appeals to American interests, these English
sympathizers are now tvaming Free Traders
and revenue reformers in the United States
that with Protection as the main issue the
struggle in 1888 will be close and doubtful.
The warning has already been heeded. The
free-tr.ido journals nave seek a great light
since the elections. They aro urging the aban?
donment of tarilt legislation [lending the neil
I'ii isiilential election. They are convinced thal
the people "are not leady far free trade
just yet." ^__________
THE ALDEliMLN AS LEGISLATORS.
The next Board of Aldermen in this city will
bo noiinproveinctilon tue present body. 1 hree
fourths of the members-elect aro Democrats
snd a majority of them are liquor deniers, j Ins
is poor encouragement lo tho advocates of
home rule. What intelligent citizen would
care to intrust to such a body tho power of leg?
islating for the metropolis t Tho truth is that
improvement in the city government hu* only
been made possible by abridging the powers ot
the Aldermen.
A good deal is said about tbe evils of inter?
ference by the Legislature with the city gov?
ernment, lt is unquestionable that it lsanevil,
paiticularly where it extends to minor details,
such as Axing salaries, creating unnecessary |
oflicos and adding to the taxpayers' bardi us.
But os a choice between thia evil and thai of
dependence on the Board of Aldermen, few
persons would hesitate to choose the form r.
There cannot bo home rule until there is a
proper body to take charge of these minor de?
tails. Either tho Board of Estimate must be
enlarged by the addition of citizens who do not
control patronage, or there must be a radical
change in tho Hoard of Aldermen. The present
vlf has no power to speak of. and is ima Mag
I none. The if'2.000 salaries winch the nieni
[?rs get is money practically worse til,in thrown

imouy in favor of two propositions, namely,
hat the public of this city are willing to give
"onerous support to an organization which
leets their artistic demands m the field of the
yric drama, and thal these demands are recog
tised in the repertory and the representations
t tho Metropolitan OpBfB House.
The occurrences in the opera houses of New
fork for sever.il yoars past have pointed un?
ii i.t.ikably to what will bethe eventual ?ola
ion of tho operatic problem in this cn.uitry.
['ho cntasttotiiies which have overtaken ol.l

Hut it should not be imagined that tho opera

Italian. It is only because the modern t.crman

SERF AA LS' HAL Et.
Some ene writing in the "Contributors'
Club" of Tht Atlantic Monthly tot the ciitn-nt
month discusses the curious fact that the watrcr
of female servants havo not been reduced since
the war, but continue at the height a depreci?
ated c.irrency then raised them to. The coti
tribntor wno raine* tue (.Bastion thinks the- f.u i
is afl evidence ol the unbusinesslike Ways of
wouien ; they having as a rule the domestic ad?
ministration in their hands. Tue subject is
certainly jiu intci't-sting one, aud it ia also of
practical importance to numbera of people. The
C-BB. too, seems to show that wages may bo
kept at a high rate B Ithoot organization on the
side of the workers, which is in itself peculiar.
Bal perhaps it is nut accurate to say that oorT"
Batt bft*B BO organisation. Tue system of in?
telligence offioea operates to some extant mich
as a trades union would. It enables the womel)
to combine agiimt reduction ot wages and to
put in force a kind of boycott Bgaiaot such as

MOSEY AM) HUS]NESS.
A little realizing by foreigners in the I tock
inrket followed the election last week, but
uying soon began again, though on a moder
te scale. The average of prices slowly wen*
p irani nearly half a dollar a share, so thal
io election did not prove the bugbear that
imo expected. Nor can it be said, on the
thcr hand, that the results appear to have
ivon any especial stimulus to business. Mr.
leorge's defeat was expected ; his large vote
rightencd some, but others consider it a good
ign that in such a city as New-York he could
tllv no inurs than a third of th? whole vote.
'he defeat of many free-trado leaders tends
> encourage American producers, but the
lection of a Democratic majority to control
iw-maklng for tho next two years is far from
ncouraging. Thus the influence of tho elec
ion on business was divided and uncertain.
louey was quite tight during part of tho week,
nd tho close, though easier, was not exactly
timulitting to speculation. Tho bank state
ient, showing an increase of rale* 9438,800
poole* against a decrease of $800,000 legal
enders, aftOf tho largo receipts of imported
old of late, was a disappointment, but the
teailiness of prices in the srock market still
?ave hope that foreigners would take moro
ecuritics and send over more gold.
No important cheese appears in tho markets
ipon which exports mainly depend. Prices of
?rain remain substantially unchanged; tho
Teat visible supply and the moderate foreign
lentand Cheeked a ri.-o, while tho abatement
il ollifs from the farms discouraged operations
or a decline. Cotton has fallen an eighth,
1000009 ot slackening foreign dem md, but pork
iroduct*. generally advanced small fractions,
md oil is dull and little changed in price,
rims exports of all kinds from New-York wire
11,100(000 less in value for the latest creek
oported than for the correspoi tiing week last
ear, while imports were $1,1 50,1)00 larger in
?niuo last week thin for the corresponding
rook a y* ar ago. A decline of 14 percent in
?sports with an increase of IO tier cent in im
inrts dose Dot promise a continuance of gold
iiijioitiitions j in tact, lt is plain enough that
be 115,000,000 gold received since August 1
gould not have, come had the only balance to
nj settled been that arising from merchandise
iccounts. In brinfa we have poid and are still
niling Meerai millions every month on ac
?ount of adverse tnerchandiso balances, and
-?et, in addition to the securities sent on that
ncoiint, foreigners ate taking moro for which
;hey ship gold. That is convenient while it
asts, and it is encouraging that tho elections
Ld not stop it.
The exchanges show that domestic trade is
somewhat bin nut greatly larger than it was a
rear ago. Tho aggregate at clearing house
'ities outside New-York showed an increase
if 9.8 per eau! foi October In eomparieon with
ast year; of 0.0 per cent for the last week of
the month, and 4.0 per cent for tho first week
if November. Bail road building makes moro
progress than railroad earnings, for while the
report of rn leage built to date, over 5,000, has
inly been exceeded iu the three yeais 18Ml-'K'.l
ind in 1872, tho reported earnings of thirty
roads for the last week of October show a de
Tease of 2 percent in comparison with last
fear. This is partly because of tho dillereiico
in number of working days included, but forty
roads report for the full month only 2.8 per
cent increase over October, 1885. Tho iron
market is considered stronger but nails are
?reeker at $2, and anthracite coal is quoted 10
cents lower. The minor metals wore strong
last week, copper advancing 29 cents per 100
pounds, tin 10 cents, and load 38 cents, while
silver also rose a quarter of a penny per ounce.
Codee was stronger, while sugar slightly de?
clined.
The bond call which matured last week, like
nthers which have preceded it, was altogether
i failure as respects the return of money to
ictual circulation. Practically tho Treasury
took $1,5 '0,000 from its vaults, paid oil 3 per
cent bolds of that amount held on deposit foi
Lim banks, and received tho garoo money on
di posit geportofthg trust fund for redemption
Df bank notes held by tho people. About as
much more had been tnken for the same pur?
pose during the pievious creek, and in the same
?ray the banks have been compelled to pay nil'
|23,000(000 of the Nation's debt 81008 Septem?
ber 1, leaving tho Government bound to
redeem their not"?. The calls for bunds have
beeu much larger, $0 ',000,000 within that
period ; of wnich abott! |51,000,000 have beeu
redeemed. It is interesting to notice that
about ."jil0,100,000 have been paid oil by i-su
ing silver notes and dollars, about $5,000,000
by issuing moro legal-tender notes, and only
about ?12,500,010 willi surplus revenue, while
$2;},OOd.ooO have been paid by the process of
compelling the banks to surrender circulation,
and thus using in debt " reduction * thc trust
funds deposited by them for redemption of
bauk notes. Tho rapidity of the surrender of
circulation leads to some remark, but it is
likely to be accelerated by the decision of the
Altorney General that the banks must substi?
tute other bonds for tue called 3 per cents or
give up thouuto-issuiug harness.
