t 2,000 persons on Park Row, but

assemblage was very orderly and
med to be more of a respectable class
an that which usually visits Park Row
election night. Tammany men who
re down town had no excuse to offer
r their overwhelming defeat, and one
f their leaders said: "This will lead to a
orough reorganization of the demo
cratic party in this city and will bring
good results two years from now." Ex.
Mayor Grant tonight admitted his de
feat. HIe said: "On the retirement of
Mr. Strauses I thought it my duty to the
democratic party to accept the nomina
tion. I made a canvass on democratic
issues and have gone down with the

AMEBICAN CATTLE.

latten but a sanitary eUsars.
WsamTorox, Nov. 7.-The German
embassy here repeat the statement
given out in Berlin that the prohibition
of Ameroian cattle by the German gov
ernment is not an act of retaliation, but
a more sanitary nmasure. Information
has been telegraphed to this country, it
is said, from 1tigh ofliciale of the German
foreign ofilce. that some of the cattle re
cently arriving from America were die
eased, and under these circumstances it
had been deemed advisable to shut out
all importations until the German oill.
clial are satisfied of their healthfulnese.
This action, it is asserted, would have
been taken even if this country had not
imposed a discriminating duty on Ger
man beet sugar. The German foreign
office is constrained to believe that the
administration will make every effort to
have the discriminating duty abolished;
but meanwhile, it Is said, the embargo
on American cattle will be raised at the
first practicable moment, without refer
enne to what congress may do with the
sugar question.
The German embassy has received no
information as yet regarding the estab
lishruont of an agricultural bureau at
Washington and several other large
capitals. The proposition will be con
sidered by the reichstag, and it is
thought that its action will be favorable.

hleretofore a few firms have controlled
the cedar and mahogany trade, which
resulted in the organization of a trust
two years ago, and both buyers and sell
ers were placed at a great disadvantage.
It is claimed that a corporation like
Mason & Co.. limited, selling goods
placed in their hands in open market, as
is done in England, France and Ger
many, will make it impossible in the fu
ture for combinalious and trusts to exist
in the trade.

BY A NEV ROU'TE
t Railroad to I,:.trlpe via IIluseon' liay
Straits Is Set iouily ('on
templated.
THE PLAN IS PRACTICABLE
By the Land Portion, But the Water
Route Is Open to Gre.ve
Obtjections.
WAsaINrTON, Nov. 7.-To Europe via
Hudson straits has a queer sound, but
English and Canadian capital seems to
be at last interested to make such a
route familiar. A company just now has
t its representatives at Ottawa for the
purpose of getting a charter to construct
Sa railroad from Winnipeg to the Sas
katchewan, and thence to Fort Churchill,
on Hudson's bay, a distance of 700 miles
in all.
The project is fully a dozen years old,
and as early 'se 1884 the Dominion par
liament, in r-'-ponse to solicitations for a
subsidy for et,, proposed new railroad,
sent out observation parties to report
upon the navigability of Hudson bay
and straits. A section of railroad has
even been built north from Winnipeg for
many miles; but the idle rails have gath
ered rust and the ties are overgrown
with the grass of the prairie. It was the
tirst practical step taken in the early
days of the Hudson bay project, but its
advocates have never quite lost heart in
spite of the difficulties of interesting
capital in it and now are pushing it in
earnest once more.
The central fact on which the project
depends is that the Hudson bay route to
Europe is the shortest for the grain and
food products, not only of Manitoba, but
Uncle Sam's northwestern border. The
distance from Winnipeg to Montreal is
about 1,400, while from Winnipeg to
Fort Churchill It is only about one-half
as great; and as the remaining distance
from L'verpool to each is about the
same, there is evidently a saving of 700
miles by the new road. From Pembina,
in North Dakota. the distance is about
1,000 shorter to Liverpool by way of
Hudson bay than by way of New York.
Winnipeg, too, is only the beginning of a
largo wheat area in Canada's northwest
y.rotinrra
COUNTRY TO OI'PEN ('I'.
Sttlebments are found scattered near
ly a thousand miles west to Calgary, or
the Canadian Pacific road, and through
the North Saskatchewan region to or be
yoend Edmonton. The saving in dis
I tance to Edmonton by the Fort Church.
1 ill route over the Montreal, with propel
t rail and river facilities, would be. it is
said, about 1.300) miles. F'or grain could
come down by river to Lake Winnipeg
and only 400 miles of rail would then be
required to reach Fort Churchill, the
point of shipment to Europe. All alone
the valley of the haskatchewan river
this ameni double advantage would pre
I vail. In some parts of North Dakots
and Montana, by connecting the Cans
dian Pacific railway to Winnipeg and
thence to Hudson's Bay the gain in
distance over the New York route is
reckoned at nearly 1,000 miles.
There are really two elements, how,
ever, in the new undertaking. One is
the railroad, for the construction ol
which the money is chiefly required
while the other is the water route, o,
which, after all, the question of success
may chiefly turn. There are two rail
routes to the Hudson's Bay terminus,
one of them ending at Port Nelson, at
the mouth of the Nelson river, in lati
tude 57 degrees, 050 miles from Winni.
peg, and the other at Fort Churchill. A
1 road built over the former route would
travel over a barren wilderness but
would be easier of construction, while
the Fort Churchill route is through a
country which offers opportunities of
development and consequent local
traffic.
NAVIGATION THROUGH THE STRAITT.
But the real question of practicability
for the new grain.carrying route is the
transportation by water rather than by
land. Hudson's bay, which is practically
a great inland sea, having an area of
about half a million square miles, or
half as great as that of the Mediterra
nean, is too extensive to be entirely
frosen over throughout the year. But
the great trouble Is with the compara
tively narrow Hudson straits. Repeated
observations show that at utmost the
straits, which at some points are leis
than 70 miles wide, and are more than
500 miles long from Cape Chudleigh to
the bay, are navigable for only three or
four months each year. Reference has
been made to the observation parties
seant out by the Dominion government in
the Neptune in 1884.
They were stationed along the bay and
straits; by the following summer the
Alert, being seat to relieve them, was
caught iano lose pack near the entrance
to the -t',ity , L t.. o,-ti~l, of ,in;,, and
was hrIl f,,r there our t, being then
forced to put aIc.i; to Newfou1dallwl tfr
repairs. In August dhe tried aogin, and,
in spite of icetitlld and a etror,c tidal
drift, found an open passage, ran fromn
the straits to York Factory in five days,
reached all the stations and brought off
most of the men. Captain Gordon con
sidered the straits navigable by suitably
butt steamers for four months in the
yeat by following winding courses or by
drifting with the ice, as the whalers do.
TItE INCOME TAX.
Treasur3 Department Making Arrange
Iments for Its Enforcement.
WASIJNcTroN, Nov. 8.--The work pre.
liminary to carrying into effect the new
income tax is going forward as rapidly
as its nature will permit, under the
direction of Mr. Wm. H. Pugh, who, on
October 5 last, was appointed superin
tendent of the income tax.
A number of complicated and interest
ing questions have arisen under former
lawn, and anticipating that questions
will arise in the future of equal import
apoa, it is essential for their solution to
understand what has been the former
legilation of congress, the decisions of
the:bourts, and the rulings of the de
partment upon the subject of the in
come tax. With this view Mr. Pugh has
bees occupied since his appointment in
exa.ining and preparing a digest of the
cout decisionsand the department rul
ings compiled under their respective
headings. He has also prepared a com
parison of all the former laws upon the
income tax. arranged so that all the pro.
vislons heretofore made upon the same
subject shall appear properly grouped
and any one at a glance can see the vari
oune hanges and modifications that have
takes place.
There have been several acts upon the
subject of the incometax. The first was
passed August 5, 1861. Under this act,
however, nothing was done. The act
failed to provide many provisions con
tained in the subsequent legislation both
as.to the subjects of taxation and the
methods of collection. These were pro.
vided for in subsequent acts. The sec
ond act was passed July 1,1862; the third
act June 30, 1804; the fourth act March
3, 1865; the fifth act March 2, 1807. Un
der the first act 8800 was the amount re
mers vt from taxation and the rate of tax
was 5 per cent on all sums over that
amount. Under the act of July 1, 1862,
the amounts reserved from tax were as
follows: If the income exceeded $t11(
and did not exceed 810,(n10 a duty of 5
per 'entum upon the amount exceeding
10X;. Under the third act (;010 was ex
emp:td and the duty was 5 per cent on
the et.ess; under the fourth and fifth
eats 31,0(00 was free from tixation and
the amount of tax was 5 per cent on. the
at aut to excens of that s.Uom.

Ir'I.ovrr.sI.E NOV. S--Mrs. Cuthbert
tlullitt, who has sued her husband for
divorce, has exrlained in an interview
Imre fully the reasons why she insti
tut,.d proceedings against the famous
geintleman of the old school. She said:
•'L positively decline to discuss n.y
marital affairs at length. I stated in my
allegations what I had to say, but would
add that halt has not been told of my
persecutions by that man. I refrained
from being very severe on him because
of his great age.
"I have waited a whole year since our
separation before brirging suit for di
vorce, thinking providence would spare
nme that duty that I owe to my peace of
mind. I was as mild as I could be, be
cause if I had brought out the whole
truth about him it would ruin him in
this community.
"I felt compelled out of self respect to
bring the suit, as he has been circulating
falsehoods about me and following me
up from place to place until my life was
rendered sa hell on earth. He is old, and
jealous suspicions are more than I could
stand, so I determined to bring my suit
for divorce and rid myself of him."
"What did be say about you?" was
asked.
"A number of mean things that friends
told me, all of which were untrue and
not worth repeating. It he could sub
stantiate any of them he would never
have let me rast."

THE ATTENDANT CEREMONIES
Were Conducted With Great Pomp
and Witnessed By a Not
able Gathering.
Loesoo, Nov. 8.-The Princess Alix
has been received into the orthod x
church. The ceremony took place in the
chapel of the imperial palace. She re
ceived the title of Grand Duchess of
Blagovernaja Velikaja Knagina. After
the ceremony of confession she received
the orthodox sacrament. The ritual ob
served required no denunciation cf her
former faith. The priest merely asked
the princess to express her belief in
the trinity, and then to repeat the dog
mas of the orthodox faith. She did so
and was then led by' a priest into the
church and up to a table, on which were
vessels contaicing consecrated oil. In the
meantime a choir was singing psalms.
The princess knelt before the table.
After the offering of prayers and the
singing of hymns, the priest said: "Arise
my beloved; arise in the fear of God."
The princess stood up and said: "I
vow to remain steadfast in the orthodox
Catholic church to my last breath. I
vow that that I acknowledge this faith
and rejoice in obeying its laws. As a
sign of this sincere vow, which comes
from my heart, I kiss the cross of the
Savior, amen." T;.en she knelt and the
priest gave absolution.
After numerous hymns and prayers, in
which all the members of the czar's fam
ily were named, the priest anointed the
princess with consecration oil on the top
of the head, nose, lips, ears, hands and
feet. Afterward he touched these parts
with a sponge dipped in holy water.
iHe then proclaimed the princess' law
ful convt,;eon to the Riussian orthodox
church, and exhorted those present to
pray for her.
It is now stated that Grand Duke
Alexis Michaelovitchb, a cousin of the
czar, who some years ago was disgraced
and banished to Caucasus, was miot re
