3 Cheap Gas. , ,
In the city of Brooklyn, according to
the Tribune, the price of gas is reduced
to 90 cents a thousand feet. The city
of Philadelphia owns its own gas- works
and being unable to make all it re-
. quires, for the present sub-lets con-
tracts -to several smaller gas works who
put the subtle and odorous illuminating
fluid into the city's gas tanks for twenty-
flve cents a thousand feet. Made of
_ water, as all illuminatingfigas now is, it
is about the cheapest commodity in the
market. _
Don’t Do it.
if tempted to cast or sweep your re~
lose and your loose papers into the
1- ‘v streets, don’t do it. We have had
s. veral narrow escapes from accidents
11.. account of paper swept from shops
and stores flying about our streets in
the wind and frightening horses.
If tempted to ride abroad on your
wheel any dark evening, don’t do it,
unless you have a lighted lantern and
your alarm bell in good order. Quite
a number of accidents have occurred
to persons and bicycles on account of
a neglect of these precautions. A lady
and gentleman came within a hair’s
breadth of being run down by a wheel-
man, while crossing one of our ave-
nues a few nights since, who had neith-
er lantern or bell to give notice of his
rapid approach.
Our city laws provide for these need-
ed safe-guards and all good citizens
should give them a ready acquiescence
in the interest of the public health and
safety.

Wires Underground. -
New York, Washington and other
cities have resolutely entered upon the
long and earnestly demanded reform
of placing all _ telegraph, telephone,
trolley and fire alarm wires in a con-
duit under ground. This is deemed a
necessity as a safe-guard against in-
juries to life and property by the over;
head systems. The Massachusetts Leg-
islature passed at its last session a bill
providing for burying electric wires in
cities. A commissioner of Wll‘eS has
now been! nominated and the “Boston
Advertiser" expects to see a large part
of the wires in Boston buried before
' the year is out. This reform will soon
or late be inaugurated here in the
thickly settled portions of the cities of
.Norwalk and South Norwalk. The un-
sightliness of these myriad electric
» wires is transcended by the multiplied
injuries they cause, and with which the
newspapers are daily freighted, and
underground they must ultimately go.

Debs Arrested.
The man who more than any other is
responsible for the murder, arson and
general lawlessness that have run riot
in Chicago has at last been placed un-.
der arrest. Any other executive save
' theAnarchist Altgeld would have placed.
him. behind prison bars at the outset of
his law-breaking and defying career.
It would be a mockery of law and jus-
tice if heswere not called to account.
The actioh of the Federal Grand Jury
in Chicago was prompt and satisfactory.
The masterly charge of Judge Gross-
cup conceded the right of laboring men
to organize, but declared most emphati-
cally that if the law had been violated
it must be vindicated. The indictment
against Debs and his associates charges
conspiracy to interfere with the United
States ufiiils only. The proof is,_ of
. eoni-se,ample on this point.
The next incendiary to be gathered
in ought to be his fellow conspirator,
General Master Workman Sovereign,
of the Knights of Labor. His plan and
purpose is to aid Debs in his insurrec-
tion, and is therefore criminal. His
boast that he can call out a million
Knights of Labor will not be realized,
but his disposition to do it is clear.
Debs and his allies will find that they
have entered upon a seriousundertak-
ing in pitting themselves against a
Government of 70,000,000 peoplefiThey
have done the cause of honest Organ-
ized Labor, more harm within the past
ten days than they can everuado. The
‘ Labor organizations will be found
ranged on the side of law and order.

Railr’oad Building at a Low, Ebb.
-The Railroad Gazette reports that
"only "495 miles of new railroad track
have been laid in this country during
2 -. the six months ending on the lat day of
-. .J .— .~...~<
July, which is the lowest half-year’s
record in many years. The annual in-
, 'crease of mileage Was 1,177 in 1865,
1,716 in 1866, and 1,711 in 1875. For
very other year since the war it has
7 . been ofte’ner above 4,000 than below,
i
reaching the extraordinary figures of
11,569 in 1882 and 12,878 in 1888.
In‘the present year railroad building
has come to an absolute standstill in
’ twenty-two of the forty-four states.
Herein will be found not merely an
evidence of the paralysis which has
overtaken all the industrial activities,
_ but evidence of ‘a much more conserva-
tive policy than has heretofore pre-
vailed with regard to railway construc-
1ments, with a‘combined capital of

construction has been overdone. Rail~
roads have been crippled by the build-
ing of branches and extensions for
which there was no urgent commercial
demand, and they have been handi-
capped at many points by unfriendly
legislation inflthe operation of their
roads. The country stands in no need,
of many new roads at this time. There
is no paying business for many of the
older roads, and conditions will have

The Tariff.
The democrats of the 5 conference
committee have secluded themselves in
the inner recesses of a committee room
and are reported as laboring diligent-
ly to harmonize the serious differences
existing in their own ranks before ad-
mitting. to the committee’s sessions any
republican member of it. Were Messrs.
Aldrich, Allison, Reed or Burrows pres-
ent, it is easy to see they would be
troublesome and likely to expose some
necessary, perhaps, partisan chicanery.
So what is being done on :the Tariff,
cannot be known to the people now
waiting in intensest anxiety, until some
harmonious results are reached. This
secret sort of legislating was once
deemed very undemocratic, as it is very
un-American. ' ' ' N
The Senate Democratic conferrees
are Mr. Voorhees, of Indiana; Mr.
Harris, of Tennessee; Mr. Vest, of
Missouri, and Mr. Jones, of Arkansas;
and their Democratic associates from
the House are Mr. Wilson, of West
Virginia; Mr. McMillin, of Tennessee;
Mr. Turner, of Georgia, and Mr. Mont-
gomery, of Kentucky. According to
the census of 1890, Indiana contains
12,354 manufacturing establishments,
with an aggregate capital of $132,405,-
366; an annual output amounting in
value to $226,825,082 ; employing 124, 349
persons and paying them annually in
wages $51,749,976. Tennessee, the state
represented by Senator Harris and Mr.
McMillin, contains 4,559 manufacturing
establishments, with an aggregate capi-
tal of $51,475,092, employing 42,759
persons, paying them $16,899,351 annu.
ally inwages, and producing goods to
the value of $72,355,286. Missouri, the
state represented .by Senator Vest, con-
tains 14,045 manufacturing establish-
3189,236,422, employing 142,924 persons,
paying them in wages annually 876,-
327,907, and creating an annual output
amounting in value to $323,987,688.
Arkansas, the state represented by Sen.
ing establishments, whose~ combined
capital amounts to $14,971,614; employ-
ing 15,972 [1. rsons, whose annual wages
amount to $5,749,888, and the annual
product of whose labor is 822.659.179.
West Virginia, the state represented
by Mr. Wilson, contains 2,376 manufac-
turing establishments, with a‘ combined
capital of $28,118,030; employes num-
bering' 21,969, who receive wages to the
annual amount of $8,330,997, and who
produce goods to theann'ual value of
$38,702,125. Georgia, the staterepre-
sented by Mr. Turner, contains 4,285
establishments, in which $56,921,530 is
invested, where 56,383 people are em-
ployed at $17,312,196 annual wages, and
creating an annual product of $68,917,-
by Mr. Montgomery, contains manu-
facturing establishments to the' number
of 7,745; their capital amounts to $79,-
811,980; the? employ 65,579 people who
receive $27,761,746 annually in wages,
and who turn out goods to the value of
$126,719,857. . p ‘ _ ~
Taking these seven States together
they are represented by 47,437, estab-
lishments with $552,940,084 of capital,
with 469,935 employes who receive
$202,132,061 annually in wages and turn
out a product of $880,165,237. .
The manufacturing establishments in
the State of New York, whichis not
represented on this committee, number
65,840. The value of their capital is
the tremendous sum of 31,130,161,_195,
and of their output the evenrgrcater-
writ of $311,577,671. The number of
their employee is 850,084 and the sum
paid annually in wages is $466,846,642.
In a word, the concern of the single
State of New York in the issue is twice
as great as that of all the states repre-
sented by the Democratic members of
this, Conference Committee from both
Senate and House. As for manufac-
turing New! England, the showrng 'is
still more startling in its disparity-and
yet Senator Aldrich of Rhode Island
is not permittedto attend the meetings
of this Conference Committee, of which
he is appointed a member.

The Trim American Foot.
Several London newspapers have, been
entertaining their readers during the
Whitsun holidays by a lively controver-
sy over the respective size and beauty
of the feet of English and American
women. Some editors, in the face of
overwhelming cviden e, confess that
English feet are out of ru “.ing in such
a controvcrs ' and consl‘.-c themselves
by asserting that the feet of Englishmen
are'far more shapely than those of their
American brothers. There have been
many indignant protests against even
this admission. The shoe dealers, when
assured that they may speak incog, re-
gretfully admit that they are unable
to fit the trim American foot withany
shoe ready made for the fat and flat
feet of English women.

. . CONGRESSIONAL INVESTIGATION.
[he Sntional Legislature In Ngw Certain to
Inquire Into the Strike. ' ~
Wasnixc'rorv, July 13.—A congression-
al investigation of the strike'ls practically
assured as a result of the favorable report
of a resolution for that purpose by the
house committee on interstate commerce.
It had been hoped. to press the resolution
to a passage today, but as aspeclal rule
had given the day to the foreign affairs
committee, and Friday is also occupied
with a specialorderit was determined to
press it Saturday morning prior tothe de-
livery of eulogies at 2 o’clock to the mem-
0013’ of the late Representative Honk of
10. .
There appears to be little opporition to'
the resolution, and those in charge of it
expect its passage with little debate.- It
will give the house its first opportunity,
however, to discuss the strike, and some
vigorous remarks in line with those ex-
pressed in the senate on Tuesday are ex-
pected. It is probable also that efforts will
be made to so amend the resolution as to
have it express the views of some of the
more radical labor leaders.
On the passage of the resolution Chair-
