For all interior work enamel has long been conceded to be more artistic than |
paint, more lasting, more sanitary, and with an advantage which no other paint material
possesses — that of being washed with a sponge or damp cloth. The dirticulty with
enamel has been in its much greater cost than ordinary paint. Bradley & Vrooman
Company, Chicago, have in
FLORENTINE ENAMEL
placed on the market an enamel superior to any other at half the cost of other
enamels or the cost of paint. There is nothing equal to it for the interior of bath-
rooms, kitchens, bedrooms, dining-rooms, business oitices — in fact, for any interior.
The finish is glossy and beautiful.

We make a specialty of gilt-edge minins: stocks in such properties only as we
have thoroughly investigated with our own experts, and can recommend to our cus-
tomers as being legitimate mining enterprises conducted on business princip'es, viz.;
working mines, developed properties, and dividend payers. We have yet to make our
first mistake, or to record the first loss made by a customer on a mining investment
which we have recommended.
We have among our list ot customers a large number who have made
From 50 to 200% Profit, and 1 to 3?^ In Monthly Dividends.
We confine ourselves exclusively to Arizona mining properties, and of the four
that we have handled during the year 1900, two are paying regular monthly dividends,
one having withdrawn its stock entirely from the market, not now being obtainable at
anyprice unless from some fortunate stockholder, and the stocks of the remaining
two have advanced over lOO per cent m the last four months, and they will enter the
dividend-paying list early the coming year.
ARIZONA DIVIDENDS AVERAGED 20^
for the first eight months of 1900, as against an average in the entire United States
of 8 1-5 per cent.
We are the largest exclusive mining, banking, and brokerage house in the
United States, and by a system of thorough investigation by our own experts are en-
abled to secure for our customers the large prolits that come with successful mining
without risk of loss. Our pamphlets of dividenv payers, and of new and promising

On receipt of $3.00 we will deliver direct to you, free of any other cost, a little
oak barrel, containing one gallon of FRIEDENWALD'S PURE RYE WHISKEY, or Ken-
tucky Bourbon, ii preferred. FRIEDENWALD'S PURE MARYLAND RYE WHISKEY is
guaranteed seven years old and equals any $6.00 whiskey on the market.
Its perfect purity makes it especially valuable for' medicinal use. We ship this
whiskey just as we receive it from our distillery, in small barrels, holding one gallon
each. These barrels are made from original oak staves of old whiskey barrels. Each
has a small brass spigot; thus, the consumer continues to age the whiskey in wood
after purchasing, a decided advantage over bottled whiskey. As every one knows,
whiskey cannot be aged in glass, and this offer means PURE WHISKEY IN GALLON
LOTS IN WOOD AT BARREL PRICES. We ship this barrel in perfectly plain
package, no marks to indicate the nature of the contents, all securely packed and
impossible for breakage. At this special low price, the consumer buys direct from a
distiller at wholesale prices.
Any one purchasing a Baby Barrel and after receiving same, it is not satisfactory,
can return it to us at our expense and we will refund your money. We also ship in our
celebrated Baby Barrels thirty-five other kinds of wines and liquors.
Write for full list of goods put up in our Baby Barrels.

FOR
RHEUiHATISM
USE MY
MIUL
mwnt
Every one knows to-day, or should know, that the properly applied current or
galvanic electricity will cure rheumatism.
Of course the time is past when people can be deluded "by charlatans into believ-
ing the " Walk up, take treatment, and throw away your cane " idea.
There is no miracle in the proper use of electricity. It simply cures you by the
working out of a natural law. It adds strength to every organ and fibre of the body.
It ^ets the bladder, kidneys, liver, etc., into proper working order. It increases the
circulation and purifies the blood. It kills all germ life. That is why electricity cures.
The immediate acceleration of the blood circulation often eases the pains in one
application, but, of course, such is only temporary. You must continue in the use of
electricity for some time to effect a permanent result.
The Dr. Sanden Herculex is the proper application of the right curre t. It is
worn comfortably around the waist all night, soothing and strengthening while you
sleep. It gives forth a great volume of electricity.
It is an improvement over the famous Dr.'^Sanden Electric Belt, which has been
the standard for 25 years. 1 have used my Herculex with phenomenal success in my
private practice, and now offer it publicly.
FREE BOOK, "HEALTH IN NATURE."
Write for my little book, " Health in Nature." It explains all. 1 diagnose and
advise by mail. Free consultation is also offered at my office, where the Herculex
may be seen and current tested. Write or call.

JOSEPH PULITZER.
Nineteen hundred and one! The Wokld greets the new year of the new century stronger in
equipment, stronger in purpose, and stronger in news resources than ever before. The greatest of cen- I
turies has closed to make way for a greater ! New tasks, new trials, new triumphs are to come. In
meeting them all. The World intends to be first !
PUBLICITY S GLARE MELTED THE lOE TRUST OONS PIRACY.
On May I the American Ice Company notified its customers that the price of ice for the season would
be sixty cents a hundred pounds— double the rate charged for many years— and that no five-cent pieces
would be sold to the sweltering poor of the tenements. The "World, first of all newspapers, exposed
and denounced this " conspiracy of greed against need," for it was found that no rival dealer dare sell
tor less. This was an "Ice Trust."
In its pursuit of this iniquitous conspiracy, The World discovered and published the story that six
days after the Mazet Committee had exposed the fact that the American Ice Company, which had ab-
sorbed nearly all its competitors, had secured exclusive dock privileges from the Dock Department,
giving the Trust a complete monopoly of the ice market of New York City, Mayor Van Wyck had
acquired much stock of the ice company.
On May 14 the Directors of the Ice Trust voted as a concession to public opinion, aroused and voiced
by The World, to restore cheap ice to the poor at the rate of fifteen pounds for five cents at the
wagons ; and on June 7 it notified its customers that the price from June 1 would be forty cents a hun-
dred pounds. Later on dock privileges were granted to independent dealers. The concentrated rays of
The World's Publicity had proved too hot for the Ice Trust, the great Moral Force had done its work.
Later on the price was reduced to thirty cents to householders. The city consumes 3,000,000 tons a
year. The World had saved to the people not less than $6,000,000.
Meantime The World had begun action looking to the proper disposition of the case of the Trust
Mayor, and the Trust itself. In the armory of the law it found another weapon for the protection of
the people. Under a law enacted in 1874, to remedy the diflSculty of that time in compelling the testimony
of officials and others concerned in tne crimes of the Tweed ring, The World on May 22 haled Mayor
Van Wyck and others before Justice William J. Gaynor, of the Supreme Court, for examination as to
their relations with the Ice Trust.
A dozen officials and officers of the Ice Trust thus summoned appeared with an impressive array of
learned counsel to fight The World, declaring the Anti-Tweed Law unconstitutional. But in deciding
that they must submit to examination. Justice Gaynor said:
"This statute was passed to help the rentpayers and taxpayers oi the city to keep watch of the con-
duct of their officials and in the hope of enabling them by Publicity to prevent official betrayals of
trust, which had come to be so persistent and common and were so low, base, vulgar, and heartless as to
make many believe that we have reached an era when the permanent decay of our civilization
had set in."
On June 8 Mayor Van Wyck, being examined under oath, confessed that he had purchased $500,000
worth of the stock of the American Ice Company at " bottom prices ; " that he had paid $50,000 in cash,
and given his notes to the President of the company for the balance, $200,000, and was paying the notes
out of the profits earned by the stock.
That night The World, using a special train to Oyster Bay, filed a complaint with Gov. Roosevelt
and a petition asking for the removal of Van Wyck under those provisions of law which forbid any
municipal officer to hold any pecuniary interest in any transaction with the city. The Ice Trust had
such transactions in its leases of dock privileges, of which it at this time held a monopoly, and in its
contract for supplying ice to three of the largest city departments.
Urged by The World, Attorney-General Davies announced a decision to proceed against the Ice
Trust as an unlawful combination, and The World telegraphed to ex-Attorney-Greneral Frank S.
Monnett, of Ohio, who successfully prosecuted the Standard Oil Trust in its home State, and ex-
Attoiney-General M. T. Moloney, of Illinois, who successfully fought the Chicago Gas Trust. Each
accepted The World's retainer, and it offered the services of these two experienced Trust fighters to
the Attorney-General, but the declination of their help was the first of a series of events which too
plainly outlined an "agreement among gentlemen " by which one Boss' Mayor was to be protected in
exchange for the defeat of a formidable candidate of his party for the Gubernatorial nomination, so
that the candidate of the other party Boss could have a " walk-over " in the approaching race for the
Governorship.
The rise in the price of the Ice Trust stock showed the total profits of cornering New York's ice
supply to be $9,176,103, and the Mayor's share about $25,000 a year.
Gov. Roosevelt said: " The public after reading the testimony of the Mayor has, I believe, no doubt
that moral guilt has been proven."
But the Governor took the papers and then for five months held the matter in abeyance, while he
travelled over twenty States campaigning for the Vice-Presidency, using the lea Trust as a shibboleth
in nearly every speech. On September 29 the Mayor's answer was filed in Albany, but on the advice of
Attorney-General Davies that " the Mayor's answer should not be made public at this time," and on an
order telegraphed to Gov. Roosevelt at Cripple Creek, Col., by Benjamin B. Odell, Jr., then candidate
and with the beginning of the year 1901 Governor of the State of New York, that " it must be held until
after election is over." the Governor suppressed the Mayor's answer for a whole month.
But the purifying influences of Publicity were working. With the finger of accusation pointed at
him, the Mayor made haste to unload his Trust stock and, thanks to the three extensions of time granted
to him by the Governor, was able to say in his answer to The World's charges that he had sold it all
18
The World.
(IS soon ns he learned through The World that the Titist dealt with the city of which he was Mayor
He said he sold his stock at a great pecuniary loss.
All this twisting and turning by the Governor and his political friends was never intended for
public knowledge, and it would have remained a political secret had not The World made a complete
exposure of the whole miserable affair in an exclusive article on Js'ovember 9, giving in full the Mayor's
answer, Attorney-General Da vies' long letter of opinion and advice, and the telegram sent by Odell to
Roosevelt ordering the suppression of the facts for campaign purposes.
As was to be expected, Gov. Roosevelt — " after the election " — on November 23 dismissed the
charges.
The reason was indicated in the caustic comment of the New York Press, a Republican paper :
*' The truth is that the suggestion of a bi-machine 'deal ' for the Mayor's protection will rise to the
mind of most readers of the document."
The Evening Post said, on the afternoon of the day on which The WORLD made the exclusive expo-
sure of the deal :
"The World of this morning contained a great deal of what Horace Greeley used to call ' mighty
interesting reading ' regarding the Ice Trust. It has secured the answer which Mayor Van Wyck made
on September 27 to the charges upon which his removal from office was asked: the opinion of the
Attorney-General upon this answer, which that official sent a week later to Gov. Roosevelt, then
on his electioneering tour in the West, and a telegram which Mr. Odell addressed to the Governor at
Cripple Creek, Col., when he learned that the Mayor had made his answer, insisting that for political
reasons it must not be made public. The disclosures present three public men of high position
in a most disagreeable light — the Mayor of New York Oity, the Governor of New Yor.k State, and the
Governor-elect. "
The Hartford Times said: "The demonstration by the New York World that the charges of
malfeasance brought against the Mayor of New York were manipulated by the State authorities for
partisan advantage is an important service. The publication of the documents in the case is one more
notable instance of the enterprise and public spirit for which The World is distinguished."
The Brooklyn Eagle said : " The Mayor may serve out the balance of his term, but he has smirched
the place and the daub is indelible. It suggests the language of Judge Gaynor, ' low, base, vulgar, and
heartless.' "
Publicity, however, had done its work, had won its victory. It had destroyed the conspiracy of the
ice magnates and the city officials, restored cheap ice to the tenement-house poor, forced the Trust to
reason in its prices to customers and consumers, and driven the Mayor into a corner from which he was
glad to make his escape by sacrificing his guilty holdings of Trust stock, and had unmasked the " stren-
uous " Governor.
THE STANDARD OIL BANK DEAL.
Early in the year The World once again demonstrated the moral force, the power for good, of a
great, free, and fearless newspaper in the smashing of the secret compact between the Administration
at Washington and the "Standard Oil crowd," by which all the Government receipts from internal
revenue taxes were to be "pooled" in the vaults of the National City Bank of New York, known
as the " Standard Oil " Bank, for distribution to the Government depositaries.
Under the contract more than $1,000,000 a day would flow into the favored bank, to be distributed as
only it and a very few United States Treasury officials would know, the bank enjoying the use of the
money meantime.
Secretary Gage announced this contract for pooling the enormous receipts and their distribution by
secret arrangement just before Congress adjourned for the holidays. The next day The World
attacked the scheme, turning the broad beams of the searchlight of Publicity on the transaction, and
showing that upward of $10,000,000 of the Government's money had been on deposit and bearing no
interest in the Standard Oil Bank steadily for six months. When the year 1900 opened, the press of
the entire country was spreading The World's information and arousing the people. Mr. Gage
fled from the storm that was raging about him. He rescinded the order to banks in Western
cities to ship the money deposited by the Government collectors to the favored "pool;" the
policy of secrecy was abandoned, and Treasurer Roberts was ordered to announce that he would give
out the facts of the distribution.
The World showed that the "Standard Oil crowd" had been favored so palpably as to arouse
suspicion of the motives impelling the Administration. This "pull " had brought to the Standard Oil
Bank $24,000,000 of the money received by the Government in settlement of the Union Pacific debt,
including the ?14,751,223 saved to the people on that settlement by The W'orld's energetic fight in 1898
against tiie consummation of the " private arrangement " between the Government and the Wall Street
blind pool known as the Union Pacific Reorganization Committee, and forced the Government to put
i the indebted roads up at public sale, in which the syndicate bid nearly $15,000,000 more than the
I Administration had agreed by "private arrangement " to accept for the property.
I Both Houses of Congress acted promptly, and with practical unanimity, beginning an investigation
of the relations of the Treasury Department and the National City Bank. This brought a 9,000-word
defence from Secretary Gage, and revealed three highly explanatory letters, the first from Vice-Presi-
dent Hepburn, of the bank, to Secretary Gage in 1897, requesting that the bank remain a United States
depository, and saying:
"If you will take pains to look at our list of directors you will see that we also have very great
political claims, in view of what was done during the canvass last year."
The second was from Senator Thomas C. Piatt to Mr. Gage, indorsing a letter from James Stillman,
President of the bank, asking for a deiwsit of Post-Office funds, and saying :
"It is unnecessary for me to say that it would be very gratifying to me if his wishes could be
respected. You know, without my mentioning it, how reliable and important a banking institution the
National City Bank is. I will be pleased to hear from you at your convenience regarding the matter."
The other letter was from President Stillman to Secretary Gage. He wrote :
"As you have doubtless noticed in the press, the money market here has been quite unsettled during
the latter part of the week. We have loaned very liberally to allay apprehension, but at such rates as
would tend to force a liquidation in highly speculative securities. I think this has been accomplished,
and the declines which have taken place will have a wholesome check."
This was a cold-blooded statement of how the Standard Oil crowd used the people's money on de-
posit in the National City Bank, and for which the Government got no interest, to "squeeze" the
market and bring on the memorable " blue Friday " of April 7, 1899, in Wall Street, during which the
The World. 19
"forced liquidation in speculatives " caused a shrinkage of $138,394,935 in stock values, for the benefit of
a ring of speculative bankers and stock gamblers.
THE CUSTOM-HOUSE DEAL.
The World in January revealed that the Administration, he.ving sold the old Custom-House to the
National City Bank, better known as the Standard Oil Bank, instead of collecting the purchase price,
$3,265,000, and depositing it in the United States Treasury, according to law, had "directed " the Stand-
ard Oil Bank to "credit" the United States with .#3,215,000. This actually left the purchase price in
the hands of the purchasers to loan out at the prevailing rate of 4 per cent, while the Government paid
rent to the bank as owners of the old building as the new one is building. In other words, the Govern-
ment, under the terms of the bargain, had the unprecedented privilege of paying rent for its own property
and, in effect, paying interest to the purchasers of the property, the Standard Oil Bank, on $3,215,000 of
its own money.
The balance of the purchase price, $50,000, was left unpaid, even by crediting it as a deposit, simply
to enable the Standard Oil Bank to say to the local tax-gatherers that it did not own the property, and
thus escape just taxation.
The exposure of this remarkable piece of financial jugglery by The World resulted in a visit from
President Feitner, of the City Department of Taxes, and, on the confirmation of The World's discov-
ery that the Government was only a tenant of the bank, a levy of $60,000 taxes was made on the
property.
But the rent from the date of the transfer, July 3, 1899, could not be paid without authority from
Oonsrress, and when Secretary Gage asked for authority to pay $109,000 for the use of the old Custom-
House since that date, a Republican Senate Committee, with the transaction before it under the
floodlight of Publicity thrown upon it by The World, curtly declined to report in favor of a free gift
of $109,000 to the bank.
THE GALVESTON DISASTER.
On the night of September 8 a calamity fell upon the city of Galveston that put the nation in
mourning. The first vague news reached The World in the night of September 9-10. Galveston had
been overwhelmed by a tropical storm from the Gulf of Mexico. In the same issue with this bulletin,
appalling in its meagreness, The World said editorially : "We do not as yet know the details of the
ruin wrought by this fury of death and destruction that swept from the sea and the sky to overwhelm
the beautiful, prosperous island city of the Southwest. But we do know that several thousands have
perished, and that a multitude of our fellow-countrymen are stricken down in ruin and in grief.
" The sympathy of the nation is instant. So also is its determination to do all in human power to
mitigate the woe and suffering. The World telegraphed immediately to the Governor of Texas tor
the earliest possible information as to what is needed. As soon as the information comes its machinery
of Publicity will be set to work."
Even while these words were being written The World's Galveston correspondent was hurrying to
Houston, the nearest point from which the telegraph was w^orking, as the messenger of the stricken
people of the desolated city to tell the nation through The World the story of the situation. Starting
at noon, he reached Houston thirteen hours later, and immediately forwarded to The World the first
detailed story of the city flooded by an 84-knot tornado ; how at 3 in the afternoon of SeptemNir 8
the waters of Galveston Bay and the Gulf met. the island city being quite submerged ; how thirty-six
out of forty churches had been destroyed, and S35,000.000 worth of property laid in ruins.
Perhaps nothing better illustrates the fidelity and speed of this servant of the public's servant. The
World, than the fact that these details proved by the investigation of weeks later to be correct, and the
other fact that his report published in The World of September 11, telling that 3 000 human lives were
lost in the calamity, was side by side on the same page with a despatch from Gov. Sayers, of Texas, from
Austin, the State capital, thanking The World for promised relief, but deploring his lack of news
beyond a conjecture that 1,000 lives and $10,000,000 in property had been lost.
Meantime The World had "set its machinery of Publicity" to work. To relieve the first need,
always the most distressing, it asked for gifts of food and clothing, promising to despatch a special
relief train, and urging that "he gives twice who gives quickly."
Thirty-six hours after the receipt of the first news of the disaster, the first of The World relief
trains started for the scene of horror laden with food, clothing, and medicine. The second train left the
next night and a third on Saturday, September 15, juat one week after the most appalling calamity that
ever betell an American community.
More than 120 tons of food and clothing went to suffering Galveston on these trains. Railroad com-
panies gave them free transportation, and they went on special-tram schedule that took them through
at topmost speed. The immediate necessities being thus supplied, The World sent a fourth consi^-
ment of supplies on a fast steamer on September 19.
The Red Cross and The World joined hands in this relief work, and Miss Clara Barton supervised
it all, with a staff of trained nurses. Miss Barton was stricken ill almost immediately on her arrival at
Galveston, but in twenty-four hours, with indomitable pluck, she arose from her sick bed and went on
with the work, while the whole nation applau'led.
Local delivery companies volunteered their services in delivering contributions to The World
relief trains; express companies carried consignments to The WoRLD-Red Cross Re lief Bureau at Galves-
ton free. So did the Mallory Steamship Line; theatres gave benefits, and hundred of readers con-
tributed liberally to The World's Galveston Relief Fund. The progress of the trains was chronicled
by the newspapers all along the route followed.
The World established an information bureau, through which inquirers for more than a thousand
persons \\\ Galveston at or before the calamity were answered through The World's Galveston ofiices.
Sir Thomas Lipton sent his check for $1,000 to The World's Relief Fund.
Pi lis bury sent three carloads of flour.
The Jersey City school children contributed $1,160.73 in money and sent carloads of supplies.
The Trenton Potteries contri'outed a carload of tableware.
Two days after the disaster Gov. Sayers wired The World from Austin :
"The World's telegram announcing that supplies of food, clothing, and money ar« being collected
by The World and will be forwarded by special train received.
" The supplies will be gladly welcomed upon their arrival.
" The people of Texas thank the people of New York." ' ,
20 The World.
Words of encouragement were spoken by the newspapers of the South, a few of which are here
quoted :
Raleigh JV^e!f» and Observer: "The New York World had a train en route to Galveston, Tex,, on
Monday, loaded with necessaries for the sufferers. The World never fails to measure up to a great
emergency."
Houston Post : " When asked by the Post representative what her plan of action would be, Mis£
Barton said :
" 'I have come to the stricken district to do what I can to aid all in need. The services of myself
and party are at the disposal of your general committee. The New York World, with its usual mag-
nanimous spirit, has kindly volunteered to send us here, and we are to do all in our power to mitigate
the sufferings of all who are in need.' "
New Orleans Picayune : "Miss Barton said : 'I must say something about the New York WoRLD
and the able work it has pursued in collecting funds. It has already sent a train to Galveston with
relief, and we go through to-day, and to-night another train even more heavily laden than the first
will leave New York under the auspices of The World distributing corps. Our party represents a
large proportion of the National Committee of the Red Cross, with headquarters at Washington.' "
This letter from Miss Clara Barton speaks for itself :
"What shall I say to that great, powerful paper for its continued kindness to me and its considera-
tion for my work? A check for a thousand dollars sent September 27. Another to-day for $500. I
cannot think how I have merited or won such kindliness or confidence. If I have, let me be thankful
and continue to merit what I possess."
"TO HARLEM IN FIFTEEN MINUTES.""
When the Mayor cut the earth in front of the City Hall with a silver shovel on the afternoon of
March 24, 1900, and in the presence of 20,000 cheering men, women, and children lifted out a shovelful
of dirt, he symbolized not only the beginning of work on the Rapid Transit Railway and the beginning
of a new era in the progress of the imperial City of New York, but he celebrated one of The World's
proudest achievements in its capacity as a public servant. For fifteen years The World had advo-
cated and had labored *or a system of real rapid transit. In an editorial on April 8, 1893, it gave utter-
ance to five words into which were compressed the desires, the hopus, and the demands of the people of
Manhattan and the Bronx — " To Harlem in Fifteen Minutes."
" To Harlem in Fifteen Minutes " became the slogan of the strap-hanger. It swept aside all make-
shifts, killed all compromise. It called for real rapid transit, and would have nothing less. And now,
after seven years of opposition, discouragement, and delay, it was being uttered in triumph on every
hand by countless thousands of enthusiastic citizens, jostling each other in Park Row and the Park,
between the home of The World and the City Hall.
As The World had been the first advocate of the rapid transit idea as finally adopted, so it had
stood watch and guard over the project lest it be killed or given up to loot by the politicians, and when,
in 1898, a bill to legislate out of office the represe ntative public-spirited, high-minded citizens composing
the Rapid Transit Commission, from whom the professional politicians of neither party could hope for
consideration, was surreptitiously introduced in the Legislature and was being " jammed " through in
breakneck f.ishion. The World rushed to the rescue. Here was a work involving the expenditure of
many millions of dollars, in which the bosses and their henchmen could get no share. The bill provided
a reorganization of the Commission on a scheme by which the City Boss and the State Boss could divide
the spoils.
The World applied the electric current of Publicity to the bill. It aroused the leaders of life in
the city, and sent to Albany in a special car the most representative body of men ever gathered to fight
in the people's cause. They argued against the bill in the Senate Committee, speaking in behalf of the
Chamber of Commerce, of organized labor, of merchants' associations, brokers, real estate men, and the
bar. In the belief that with the bosses of both parties back of the " bi-boss " bill it must surely become
law, Manhattan Elevated Railway stock went up in leaps and bounds for several days. But The World
won the fight. The bill was defeated.
The subsequent course of The World was admirably described on "Rapid Transit Day" by Com-
modore John H. Starin, who had been a member of all the successive Rapid Transit Commissions for
ten years, as follows :
" This should be a day of special satisfaction to The World. It was The World that started
agitation for rapid transit fully fiJfteen years ago. It has never flagged in its zeal for the project. Early
and late it has kept up its cr.y for rapid transit. It secured and published a vast amount of information
concerning underground roads throughout the world, and made the idea familiar to its readers.
"The World has advocated and helped to secure the passage of every law which has been secured
to advance that project. Its enterprise in sending a trainload of people to Albany on one occasion pre-
vented the passing of a bill that would have been harmful to the project. The World advocated
the lending of the city's credit to the enterprise when the idea of municipal own3rship was a novelty,
and it was The World, after consolidation, that helped to secure constitutional amendments that made
possible the selling of the necessary bonds to proceed with the constniction of the road. For these rea-
sons, I s.iy. The World has special cause for congratulating itself and for being congratulated."
Comptroller Bird S, Coler said on the same day :
"The aid given by The World in its able and persistent advocacy of the debt-limit amendment
to the Constitution, by which the borrowing capacity of the city was increased thirty millions of dollars,
entitles it to great credit, and The World has reason to felicitate itself on the result attained by that
amendment, for without it there would have been no chance whatever for rapid transit of any kind."
The work of construction is progressing, and in 1904 "To Harlem in Fifteen Minutes" will be
realized.
THE WAR IN SOUTH AFRICA.
Before actual hostilities had begun between the British and the Boers in South Africa, and, indeed,
for some time after fighting began, The World made every effort in behalf of a peaceful settlement
of the differences between the great empire and the tiny republic. When fighting began, and from
that time on. The World made it its business to print the earliest, fullest, and most graphic news
from the scenes of war.
On February 2 The World secured the first authentic estimate of the relative strength of the
contestants in South Africa. It came from the British War Department, and showed 213,000 men and
452 guns on the British side, against 59,000 Boers. "A whole nation is fighting," The World's
The World. 21
famous correspondent, Howard 0. Hi llegas, author of "Oom Paul and His People," wrote; "a whole
nation, irrespective of age or sex." But a mere handful against the British legions.
In March, in response to The World's famous petition representing the conscience and intelligence
of America, and the most remarkable ever known in the character of its signers, President McKinley
offered his good offices to end the war. It was too late. He transmitted Kruger's and Steyn's terras for
peace. Great Britain rejected them, declaring the republics must surrender and become subject to
the crown.
Having done all in its power to prevent the war by appealing to the consciences of the people of
Great Britain and America, as it did successfully when the Venezuelan boundary dispute seemed certain
to bring about a war between Great Britain and the United States, The World now turned to its new
and plain duty. It urged upon the patriot leaders of the Boers that the judgment of force had been
entered against them, the arbitrament of war had clearly given the av/ard to their enemies, and it
advised the South African patriots to accept the inevitable and close the war on the best terms that
Great Britain would concede to them.
" If the English take these republics and raise the Union Jack over them I will take my family to
America," was the grim reply of State Secretary Reitz, of the Transvaal Republic.
This was a suggestion. The World immediately telegraphed to the Governors of many Western and
Southern States, where there are vast tracts of Government and State lands open for homestead settle-
ment, asking if the Boers self-exiled would be welcome. At the same time, on January 2, The World
asked the people of America to," cordially encourage the beaten Boers to come to this country and find a
new home." The World submitted this suggestion to the sound sense and sentiment of eighty millions
of free Americans, The response was prompt and hearty. The suggestion was commended on every hand,
from all over the country. Within forty-eight hours the Governors of a score of States had responded to
The World's query with hearty words of welcome for the Boers and offers of lands for them should
they make this last " trek " in their hunt for liberty, and in Congress The World's proposal to offer
Oom Paul's people a home in the United States gained an enthusiastic reception, and resolutions were
passed by both houses extending an invitation to the Afrikanders to "come and be a part of us."
The World cabled this invitation to the Grand Old Man of South Africa, then at Pretoria, telling
him that each family might have a homestead farm of 160 acres, free, and asking how many families
were ready to come. President Kruger replied; "Thanks for offer of homestead farms. Burghers,
however, determined to fight for liberty and country to the bitter end." This was in June.
United States Consul Hollis cabled to The World November 27 that with Kruger at Lorenzo
Marques were 600 Boer families desirous of emigrating to the United States and accepting The
World's offer of homesteads, and Paul Kruger sent this message :
" I thank The World with all my heart for its noble, practical initiative. Since some of the sons
and daughters of the 'Transvaal mjst emigrate, I am pleased that they have selected for their destina-
tion the United States, where they will be guaranteed peaceful freedom. I am quite sure these exiles
will prove themselves valuable citizens of the American Republic."
The World communicated with and secured offers from railways of free transportation for the
Boers. Congress has been asked to send a ship for them, and they will find a heartyweloome here,
Paul Kruger said to the people of America through The World in November : "The war will
never end if I must ask for peace without independence. Even though Britain conquers she cannot win.
I sent a message to The World saying that the losses in the war 'would stagger humanity.' The
British laughed at me. Are they laughing now ? Are the tears of widows to pay for the gold fields ?
My burghers fight with their hearts, and an army of hearts is invincible."
So the chronicle stood at the close of the nineteenth century. There were 16,000 Boer prisoners in
military prisons at Cape Town and in Ceylon and St. Helena, yet the conflict was still waging, with
varying fortunes, Roberts asked his Government for 20,000 more troops, to tight the people he had
already annexed to the British Empire, illustrating The World's declaration at the time it was work-
ing as no other agency in civilization worked to secure peace, not because it was pro-Boer, but because
it was pro-peace and pro-civilization, pro-liberty and pro-self-government, It is a war in which
there cannot possibly be any glory for England."
EXTRAORDINARY ELECTION REPORTING.
The World's perfect news service never gave a better example of its perfection than in reporting
the Presidential election. At about 8 o'clock election night The World telephoned to President
McKinley at Canton, O., that its returns at that hour indicated his election by an electoral vote of 281
against 166 for Mr. Bryan. The President replied through the operator : " Say to The World that I
have received its message sent by long-distance telephone, and that I will send a formal answer to it
later in the evening. I am not yet prepared to reply to any of the telegrams or telephone messages
which I have received during the evening, but as soon as I am ready to make a statement for publica-
tion, which will be sometime later to-night, I will give my first attention to The World's message.
Please send that word now to The World."
Greater New York received the first news of the election result from The World's signals and bul-
letin boards, and special editions were on the street a few minutes later with all the details.
The news that McKinley had carried the State of New York was flashed from the dome of the
Pulitzer Building at 6.4C P. M., and from captive balloons 500 feet over the uptown office, at Thirty-sixth
Street and Broadway, just one minute later.
The signals announcing that Bryan had carried New York City were flashed from the dome and
captive balloons at 7.35 p. M.
That McKinley was elected— had swept the country— was announced by The World's electric dis-
plays at 7. 45 P. M.
Throughout the early evening The World's bulletins, leading up to the final results, were dis-
played at intervals of a few seconds, and from four to six minutes ahead of all other bulletins in Park
Row. A World extra, with headlines in large, black letters, "McKinley Wins," was on the street
at 8.07 P. M
The World's election extras gave the facts, in which respect they presented; as great a contrast
as possible to other extras, which gave dreams.
CHARTER AMENDMENTS.
The pleasure of The World in scoring a 'beat " on all contemporaries in giving the news of the
amendments to the City Charter proposed by the Charter Commission was heightened by the fact that
many of the radical changes in the municipal system proposed had found their first suggestion and a
constant advocate in The World The proposed amendments were printed in full a week in advance

of their submission to the Governor. The Wobld had long advocated a concentration ot responsibility
upon the Mayor, with a corresponding increase of power, urging that the Mayor cannot justly be held
responsible lor the conduct of the various departments if ho is deprived of the power to remove their
executive heads at the end of the tirst SIX months of his term, and the Coraraissiou proposes that he
shall have absolute power of removal throughout his term The World has been a long-lime advo-
cate for a single-headed Police Department, with a separation of the Bur,-au of Elections from ttte
Police Department, as the amendment provides, and the Commission only toriuulates The World s
demands in the provision that adds Itie presidents of the boroughs to the Board of Estimate and Ap-
portionment in absolute control of all questions ot public expenditure, with a veto power on all recom-
mendations for the increase ot salaries 4n tlieir departments, making this Board entirely elective by
the elimination of the Corporation Counsel and President of the Tax Board.
THE DIPLOMACY OF PUBLICITY.
The new diplomacy of Publicity v/hicb Tee World introduced to civilization when it appealed to the
common sense and humanity of the English-speaking races on both sides ot the Atlantic in the Veruezu-
elan crisis, and secured peace between Great Britain and this Republic by asking for and publishing the
kindly expressions of the leading men and women on both sides, grows in favor daily.
Li Hung Chang, the greatest living Oriental statesman, a close student of the trend of atfairs.
recognizes the potency of the new diplomacy, and recognizing The World as its greatest exponent, as
well as the most potent power for communicating it to the American people, and thence ro the civilized
world, gave The World's representative at Shanghai an interview in July, in which he clearly stated
the position of his Government. If the allies found tlie imprisoned Caucasians at Peking alive, it was
because the Chinese Government was better able to protect them than the Premier believed.
Wu Tmg-tang, the Chinese statesman representing^ his Government in this country, gave his views
to the American people in a dictated statement to The World, saying . '' It is a not, not a war, in
China." And Lord Charles Beresford spoke ol China,
Ei-Minister Denby helped in this diplomacy of Publicity in an article on Chinas sudden growth as
a great war power through the teachings of Europe.
President Porhrio Diaz, of Mexico, jumped at the opportunity to join in the discussion of the new
diplomacy, and gave The World a comprehensive survey of Mexico's condition and prospects.
Munji Bey, the Turkish Consul-General in Mew York, indulged in the new diplomacy, telling the
American people through The World why there would be no war between their country and his over
the unpaid $90,000 indemnity claim oi the United States for the killing of the missionaries.
THE CHU^ESE TROUBLE.
During the Boxer trouble in China, before and after the operation of the allied powers. The World
kept its readers constantly informed, from the most reliable sources, of all that transpired there. Its
war correspondent, Air. Frederick Palmer, was the first to reach the ground. Appreciating the sensi-
tiveness of the situation from a standpoint of world politics, it was alert in its watchfulness of the
steps of the American Government, constantly arousing the American conscience with ifs trusty
searchlight ot Publicity to the dangers of any false step. It constantly insisted that the true American
policy was not one of vengeance, but of conciliation, with proper compensation for any damage
done. When the President announced on July 3, in a note to the powers, his programme of coopera-
tion with the European arxnies "in aiding to prevent a spread of the disorders to the other provinces
and a recurrence, " The World immediately began to point out the inevitable consequences of this
programme ot joint pacification and joint bayonet rule. Mr. McKinley. firm in the belief that the
country was infected with his craze for imperialism, and "glory," and foreign domination, steadily
made his preparations, increased his army for Chinese conquest, and sent munitions of war and sup-
plies for a six months' campaign. And on July 19 Mr. Root, the Secretary of War. said ■ No matter
what action is taken by the powers, the troops of the United States will remain in China. '
The World vigorously denounced it, and was joined by all the other newspapers of the land irre-
spective of politics.
The World insisted that as our Minister and our other citizens shut up in Peking were rescued,
our army had accomplished its mission, the object for which alone it was sent, the only excuse for its
presence m China was gone, and there was left no reason why a single American soldier should stay on
Chinese soil. It should withdraw, leaving China to restore her disordered affairs. When prace was
restored our Government could arrange for indemniiy and reparation. On September 22 President
McKinley bowed to public opinion, voiced by The World, and in his reply to Germany, Rus.sia. and
China, he announced a policy of peace, justice, and civilization- peace through independent nego-
tiation.
PUBLICITY THE PEOPLE'S SEARCHLIGHT
>• Publicity, the searchlight which reveals the hidden transactions of public servants, and compels an
honest stewardship, has been used effectively by The World during the year 1900.
In its glare President McKinley could no longer withhold his approval of conviction of Captain
Carter and his sentence to the penitentiary for stealing $1,700,000 of the people's money, and after 527
days of "reviews, re-examinations, revisions," and other subterfuges, the President signed the sentence
and Carter went to prison.
The white light of Publicity thrown by The World on the Treat bill to tax bank deposits withered
it instantly, for it revealed that the measure would tax only the small and hard-earned savings of the
workingman, the widows, and the poor, while the hoarders of wealth would escape through tricks in
banking, as their personal taxes escape.
Publicity of Mr. Croker's purpose to thrust Justice Patterson from the Supreme Court bench and to
nominate his own puppet and tool in his place, forced him to back dov.n. The news of the plot was
printed on a Tuesday. The World denounced it as a new assault upon the independence of the benoh.
It gave enough of the "Ramapo" record of Croker's mnn to let the public know the degradation with
which the bench was threatened. Three days of "Publicity. Publicity, Publicity, the greatest moral
force in the universe," was enough. Oroker receded and Justice Patterson was nominated and
unanimously re-elected to the bench.
The World first brought the alleged fatal hazing of Cadet Booz to the attention of Congress,
which resulted in the ordering of a Congressional inquiry thereon.
BEST THOUGHTS OF THE BEST MINDS.

time, and was made brilliant by the contributions of the best minds of America and Europe. Among the

THE RECOGNIZED MEDIUM OF COMMUNICATION.
The Wobld, recognized everywhere as the foremost Amarican newspaper, determined to print all
the news, and treating both sides of every controversy with fair and even justice, is constantly being
used by premiers, politicians, scientists, and publicists as a medium of communication with the Ameri-
can people.
Gov. Joseph D. Sayers. of Texas, communicated his thanks to the American people for their
aid to stricken Galveston through The World.
United States Minister Conger, imprisoned in Peking and in hourly peril of becoming a victim to
the Boxer assassins, cabled to The World the first message that had escaped the Chinese censor in
ten days. It was addressed to his fellow-countrymen, an appeal to " Save us or avenge us."
When Admiral Dewey, told by thousands of his admirers that the people wanted him for their
President, and urged to say he would accept a nomination if tendered, decided to state his position to
his countrymen, he selected The World as the medium through which he would most surely teach
them all, saying, "If the American people want me for the high office of President, I shall be only too
happy to serve them. It is the highest honor in the gift of the nation; what citizen would refuse ?"
M. Emile Loubet. President of the French Republic, addressed a "greeting to the American
people." through The World of April 15, on the opening of the Universal Exposition at Paris. It was
full of high, good sense, simple cordiality, and generous enthusiasm for "the great Republic across the
ocean, whose glorious past and wonderful present contain so much that challenges France's special
regard."
Next day M. Cambon, French Ambassador to Washington, epitomized the reason for the natural
affection of the peoples of the two republics in the epigram, "French blood drenched the Revolutionary
battlefields."
William O'Brien's manifesto, published in The World of November 23, was accepted on both
sides of the Atlantic as the first authoritative declaration of the policy of the Irish party in the new
Parliament.
Richard Olney, President Cleveland's great Secretary of State, addressed the people of the country
on the issues of the last campaign by the medium of a letter published exclusively in The World.
Dato Mandi, a famous Sulu chief, sent a message to the American people through The WORLD that
"You have replaced Spain in my affections, and I am a loyal American citizen."
THE PAN-AMERICAN BEAUTY CONTEST.
The Sunday World's great Pan-American beauty contest was one of the most interesting competi-
tions of the age. It came to a close on June I, and after six months of deliberation, which involved the
inspection and discussion of thousands of portraits, the best products of the photographic art in all parts
of North and South America, the committee of ten juderes announced their decision in the Sund.^y
World of December 2. The beauties selected to typify North America and South America were Miss
Maud Coleman "Woods, the famous Virginia blonde beauty, and Miss Maxine Elliott, the incomparable
brunette, who is known to almost all Americans, respectively.
When in October, 1898, the managers of the coming Buffalo Pan-American Exposition were con-
fronted by Sculptor August Langenbahn's demand for the two most beautiful women in the Western
World for models for the Pan-American Exposition, they were in a quandary. The World offered to
help them out. The Exposition Committee intrusted the important task of deciding the contest to a
committee of ten, composed of these distinguished men and women: Conrad Diehl, Mayor of Buffalo ,

licity of the Pan-American Exposition; J. G. Brown. Vice-President of the National Academy of
Design; Irving R. Wiles, artist ; Mrs. Harriet Hubbard Ayer. Mrs, Henry Siegel, and Mrs, Minnie
Maddem Fiske.
END OF BROOKWAVISM.
The World's work for the extirpation of Brockwayism in the conduct of that institution for the
detention of young offenders against the law, and their reclamation by instruction in the arts of honest
industry, the Ehnira Reformatory, ended in the year just closed in complete victory The teign of
Z. R. Brockway, the Superintendent of the Reformatory, whose exercise of absolute and arbitrary power
graduated into a cruel tyranny with every refinement of "physical culture ' and every brutality of cor-
poral punishment, was brought to an end The World first threw the limelight of Publicity on
Brockway in 1893, and adduced evidence enough to have convicted him before any jury in the land. But
political and financial intluence from both parties protected him. The World never gave up the
fight, and when Gov Roosevelt ousted the old Board ot Managers, the new board began by heeding
The World's first demand and abolishing the system ot "physical culture " and paddling, which it
declared to be utterly without warrant of law. as The World had contenaed, though Judge Larned
ruled the other way. The World preferred new charges of cruelty against Brockway July 16, and
finally, last August, forced Brockway to resign. No inmate will ever again be paddled or chained to the
floor, and fewer of them will become insane.
EXPOSURE, CAPTURE, AND CONVICTION OF MILLER.
As The World's exposure ot the stupendous swindling scheme of the Franklin Syndicate, doing
an alleged banking business with the ignorant poor in a dilapidated tenement-house in a back street ot
Brooklyn, broke up that business and sent the swindlers flying, so its action begun through the At
torney-General tied up what funds the police found when they took possession of the "Bank. "
Clues supplied to the Brooklyn Detective Bureau by The World resulted on February 8 in t he cap-
ture of William F. Miller, the head of the swindling syndicate, after he had eluded his pursoers for
three months. The World cro^vned and completed its work by securing a full confession from Cecil
Leslie, the s.vndicate's press agent, giving in minute detail the plan by which Miller had duped first
his Sunday-school mates, then his neighbors, and finally thousands of ignorant people, by a scheme in
which he promised 520 per cent profits on their savings intrusted to him. Until this contessioD was
published the prosecutors had beenimable to secure necessary evidence to convict Miller The con-
fession made it easy, and Miller was brought to trial, convicted, and is now serving in Sing Sing a.
year sentence for the swindling by which he netted about fl50,000.
James G. Reynolds, Captain of the Brooklyn detective force, said in open court : 1 want
World to have the credit for Miller's capture, ' and the Brooklyn -Ba.^/e of February 14 said, =
Floyd street financiers' methods have been completely exposed by Cecil Leslie, who is in hiding,
who is accessible to The World. In that paper Leslie makes a clean oreast of it The World insti-
gated a bill v/hich, if it passes the Legislature, will prevent further swindling of this kind."
"THE WORLD'S' AUTOMOBILE SQUADRON.
Always just a little in advance of its contemporaries. The World, quick to apply the latest de-
velopments of mechanical science to its uses,, was the first to supplant its horse-delivery system with
automobiles, and as the twentieth century began it had a squadron of thirty -one, capable of a speed of
fifteen miles an hour

The Twentieth Century.
The twentieth century began at midnight of December 31, 1900; the year 1901 is therefore the
first year of the century. It will contain 25 leap years, and will have 36,525 daj's, which are equal to
5, 218 weeks, lacking one day. It began on Tuesday and will end on Sunday. February will have live
Sundays in the years 1920, 1948, and 1976. The diflference between the old and new styles, or be-
tween the Gregorian and Julian calendars, is now 13 days, 1900 not having been a leap year.

E\f BKR and Rogatioa Days are certain periods of the year devoted to prayer and fasting. Ember
Days (twelve annually) are the Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday after the first Sunday in Lent,
after the feast of Pentecost (Whit Sunday), after the festival of the Holy Cross (September 14), and
i after the festival of St. Lucia (December 13). Ember Weeks are the weeks in which the Ember Days
appear.
Rogation Days are the three days immediately preceding Holy Thursday or Ascension Day.
The Roman Catholic Days of fasting are the forty day.s of Lent, the Ember Days, the Wednesdays
and Thursdays of the four weeks in Advent, and certain vigils or evenings prior to the greater feasts.
In the American Episcopal Church the days of fasting or abstinence to be observed, according to
the Book of Common Prayer, are the forty days of Lent, the Ember Days, the three Rogation Days,
and all the Fridaj's of the year except Christmas Day. In the Greek Church the four principal fasts
are those in Lent, the week succeeding Whitsuntide, the fortnight before the Assumption, and forty
days before Christmas.
Stbisionsi of Kivxt,
The interval between two consecutive ttansitsof a fixed star over any meridian or the interval
duringwhich theearth makes one absolute revolution on its axis is called a Sidereal Day, and is invari-
able, while the interval between two consecutive transits of the Sun over any meridian is called an
Apparent Solar Day, and its length varies from day to day by reason of the variable motion of the
earth in its orbit, and the inclination of this orbit to the equator on which time is measured.
A Mean Solar Day is the average or mean of all the apparent solar days in a year. 3fean Solar
Time is that shown by a well-regulated clock or watch, while Apparent Solar Time is that shown by a
well-constructed sun-dial; the difference between the two at anytime is the Equation of I'ime, and
may amount to 16 minutes and 21 seconds. The Astronomical Day begins at noon and the Civil Day
at the preceding midnight. The Sidereal and Mean Solar Days are both invariable, but one day of the
latter is equal to 1 day, 3 minutes, and 56. 555 .seconds of the former.
The interval during which the earth makes one absolute revolution round the Sun is called a Side-
real Year, and consists of 365 days, 6 hours. 9 minutes, and 9. 6 seconds, which is invariable.
The Tropical Year is the interval between two consecutive returns of the Sun to the Vernal
Equino.x. If this were a fixed point, the Sidereal and Tropical Years would be identical , but in conse-
quence of the disturbing influence of the moon and planets on the spheroidal figure of theearth, the
Equinox has a slow, retrograde mean motion of 50". '26 annually, so that the Sun returns to the Equi-
nox sooner every year than he otherwise would by 20 minutes 23. 6 seconds; the Tropical Year, there-
fore, consists of 365 days, 5 houre, 48 minutes, and 46 seconds. The Tropical Year is not of uniform
length ; it is now slowly decreasing at the rate of . 595 second per century, but this variation will not
alwaj's continue.
Julius Caeisar, in B.C. 46, was the first to reform the calendar by ordering that every year whose
date number is exactly divisible by 4 contain 366 days, and all other yeai-s 365 days. The mtercalary
day was introduced by counting the sixth day before the Kalends of March twice; hexice the name
bissextile, from bis, twice, and sex, six. He also changed the beginning of the year from 1st of March
to the 1st of .lauuarj', and also changed the name of the fifth month (Quintilis) to July, after him.self.
The average length of the Julian year is therefore 365^ days, which, however, is too long by 11
minutes and 14 seconds, and this would accumulate in 400 years to about three days. The Julian
Calendar continued in use until a. d. 1582, when the date of the beginning of the seasons occurred 10
days later than in b. c. 45, when this mode of reckoning time was introduced.
The Gregorian Calendar was introduced by Pope Gregory XJII. with the view of keeping the Equi-
nox to the same day of the mouth. It consists of 365 days, but every year exactly divisible by 4 and
the centurial years which are exactly divisible by 400 contain 366 days; and if in addition to this
arbitrary arrangement the centurial years exactly divisible by 4,000 contain 366 days, the error in the
Gregorian system will amount to only one day in about 20 centuries. If, however, 31 leap years
were intercalated in 128 years, instead of 32 as at present, the calendar w^ould be practically exact
and the error w^ould not amount to more than a day in 100.000 years. The length of the mean
Gregorian Year may therefore be set down at 365 days, 5 hours. 49 minutes. 12 seconds. The Gregor-
ian Calendar was introduced into England and her colonies in 1752, at which time the Equinox had
retrograded 11 days since the Council of Nice in a. d. 325, when the festival of Easter was established
and the Equinox occurred on March 21; hence September 3, 1752, was called September 14, and
at the same time the commencement of the legal year was changed from March 25 to January 1. so
that the year 1751 lost the months of January and February and the first 24 days of March. The dif-
ference between the Julian and Gregorian Calendars is now 13 days. Russia and the Greek Church
still employ the Julian Calendar for civil and ecclesiastical purposes.
Primarily, for the convenience of the railroads, a standard of time was established by mutual
agreement in 1883, by vvhich trains are run and local time regulated. According to this system, the
United States, extending from 65° to 125° west longitude, is divided into four time sections, each of
160 of longitude, exactly equivalent to one hour, commencing with the 75th meridian. The first
(eastern) section includes all territory between the Atlantic coast and an irregular line drawn from
Detroit to Charleston, S. C. , the latter being its most southern point. The second (central) section
I includes all the territory between the last-named line and an irregular line from Bismarck, N D, , to
■ the mouth of the Rio Grande. The third (mountain) section includes all territorj' between the last-
I named line and nearly the western borders of Idaho, Utah, and Arizona. The fourth (Pacific) sec-
tion covers the rest of the countrj' to the Pacific coast. Standard time is uniform inside each of these
sections, and the time of each section diffex-s from that next to it by exactly one hour. Thus at 12
noon in New Y'ork City (ea.stern time), the time at Chicago (central time) is 11 o'clock a.m. ; at
Denver (mountain time), 10 o'clock a.m., and at San Francisco (Pacific time), 9 o'clock a.m.
Standard time is 16 minutes slower at Boston than true local time, 4 minutes slower at New York, 8
minutes faster at Washington, 19 minutes faster at Charleston, 28 minutes slower at Detroit, 18
minutes faster at Kansas City. 10 minutes slower at Chicago. 1 minute faster at SL Louis. 28 minutes

The above table applies to ordinary years only. For leap year, one day must be added to each
number of days after February 28.
Example. —To find the number of days between June 3, 1900, and February It, 1901 : The fig-
ures opposite the third day in the first June column are 154; those opposite the sixteenth day in the
second February column are 412. Subtract the first from the second product— i. c. , 154 from 412, and
the re.sult Is 258', the number of daj-s between the two dates.

Midnight
On shipboard, for purpose of discipline and to divide the watch fairly, the crew is mustered in two |
divisions, the Starboard (right side, looking toward the head) and the Port (left). The dav com- I
mences at noon, and is thus divided: Afternoon Watch, noon to 4 p.m. ; First Dog Watch, 4 p.m. to !
6 P.M. ; second Dog Watch, 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. ; First Watch, 8 p.m. to Midnight; Middle Watch, 12 I
A.M. to 4 a.m. : Morning Watch, 4 a.m. to 8 a.m. ; Forenoon Watch, 8 a.m. to noon. This makes !
.seven Watches, which enables the crew to keep them alternately, as the Watch which comes on duty
at noon one day has the afternoon next day, and the men who have only four hours' rest one night have
eight hours the next. This is the reason for having Dog Watches, which are made by dividing the
hours between 4 p.m. and 8 p. m. into two Watches. Time is kept by means of "Bells," although
sometimes there is but one Bell on the ^hlTp. — Whitaker.

<!ri)t jFrntcl) McboUitionari) lEra.
Ix September, 1793, the convention decreed that the common era should be abolished in all civil aSairs, and that the new
French era should begin on September 22, 1792, the day of the true autumnal equinox, and that each succeeding year should
begin at the midnight of the day on which the true autumnal equinox falls. The j'ear was divided into twelve months of
thirty days each. In ordinary years there were five extra days, from the 17th to the 21st of our September, and at the end of
every fourth year was a sixth complimentary day. This reckoning was first used on November 22, 1793, and was continued
until December 31, ld05, when it was discontinued, and the Gregorian calendar, used throughout the rest of Europe, was re-
sumed. The following were the dates for the year 1804, the last complete year of this style of reckoning •

The number of asteroids discovered up to present date is about 440. A number of these small
planets have not been observed since their discovery, and are practically lost. Consequently it
is now sometimes a matter of doubt, fin til the elements have been computed, whether the supposed
new planet is really new, or only an old one rediscovered.
' 'It is supposed that a Centauri, one of the brightest stars of the Southern Hemisphere, is the
nearest of the fixed stars to the earth. The researches on its parallax by Henderson and Maclear
gave, for its distance from the earth, in round numbers, 20, 720, 000, 000,000 miles. At the in-
conceivably rapid rate at which light is propagated through space, it would require about
33^ years to reaxjh the earth from this star, ' ' — W hitaker.
Thk m^rm distance of the Moon from theEarth is 238,850 miles; itsmean sidereal revolutionround
the Earth is 27 days, 7 hours, 43 minutes, 11. 46 seconds; its mean s.ynodical revolution, or the period
from new moon to new moon, is 29 days, 12 hours, 44 minutes, 2.87 seconds; the eceentricitj' of its
orbit is 0.0549, audits diameter 2,162 miles. The Earth being taken as unity, the density is .61 ;
mass, 1-81; volume, 1-50, and gravity, 1-6; that is to say, theEarth would weigh as much as 81 Moons,
is 50 times larger, and a pound of matter at the Moon's surface would, if transferred to the Earth,
weigh 6 pounds.

iWtteotitrs,
Thkse bodies are now considered to be the debris of disintegrated comets, since the greater num-
ber of them, and especially the showers, revolve around the sun in orbits which are identical with
those of comets no longer visible. Omitting sporadic meteors, which can be seen on almost any clear
night, and which appear to be describing independent orbits of their own, the principal meteoric
f roups are those of August and November. The orbit of the former extends to an unknown distance
evond the orbit of Neptune, while the latter reaches only a slight distance beyond the orbit of
Uranus. Meteors are not uniformly distributed around their entire orbit, but occur in groups of such
immense size that it sometimes takes a year or two for the swarm to pass a given point, although
moving with planetary velocity. The principal groups, or showers, are known as the Leonids, Andro-
medes, and Perseids; the first have a period of about thirty-three years; the second of thirteen years,
and the third are not limited to any date, but appear more or less abundant for a week or two about the
1st of August every year. Many great showers are on record, but the most notable one in recent
times occured in November, 1833; others took place November 13-14, 1866 and 1867.
When a meteor enters the earth's atmosphere it becomes intensely lieated, owing to the resistance
and friction, and, if small, is completely consumed: but if large enough its passage is a ■companied by
a continuous roar, with tremendous explosions, which can be heard for distances of forty or fifty
miles. Meteors vary in size from mere grains of sand to several tons, and consist for the most part of
iron and nickel, but no fewer than twenty-four terrestrial elements have been found in them.

5 Conjunction,
n Quadrature.
S Opposition.
Q Ascending Node.
U Descending Node.
Two heavenly bodies are in ' ' conjunction " ( (3 ) when they have the same Right Ascension,
or are on the same meridian, i. e. . when one is due north or south of the other ; if the bodies are
near each other as seen from the earth, they will rise and set at the same time; they are in
"opposition" (§) when in opposite quarte'rs of the heavens, or when one rises just as the
other is setting. ' ' Quadrature ' ' is half way between conjunction and opposition. By
"greatest elongation" is meant the greatest 'apparent angular distance from the sun; the
planet is then generally most favorably situated for observation. Mercury can only be seen
with the naked eye at this time. When a planet is in its "ascending" (Q) or "descending"
(?j) node it is crossing the plane of the earth' s orbit. The term "Perihelion" means nearest,
and ' 'Aphelion' ' farthest, from the sun. An "occultation^' of a planet or star is an eclipse of
it by some other body, usually the moon.
L -ECLIPSES.
There will be three Eclipses in the year 1901 ; two of the Sun and one of the Moou and a Lunar
Appulse,
1. A Lunar Appulse May 3. Nearest approach of the Moon to Earth's shadow 1 h. 35 m.
P. M. Distance ot Moon's limb from the shadow 52". Angle of position of point of nearest ap-
proach 12° from north point of Moon's limb toward the east.
2. A total Eclip.se of the Sun May 17-18, invisible in America; visible in Eastern Africa, South-
ern India, Siam, Southern China, the East Indian Archipelago, the Philippines, and Au.stralia. The
path of the total Eclipse passes over the Indian Ocean, across Sumatra, southern part of Borneo,
Celebes, and the southern portion of New Guinea.
3. A partial Eclipse of the Moon October 27, invisible in America, except in a small portion of
Alaska.
4. An annular Eclipse of the Sun November 10-11. invisible in America; visible in Northern
and Central Africa, Europe except Norway, the British Isles, Portugal, Northern Spain, and the
northwestern part of France, over the whole of Asia except Northeastern Siberia, over the East
Indian Archipelago, and the extreme north of Australia.
The path of the Annulus begins at sunrise in Sicily, passes over Cairo hi Egypt, through Arabia,
over the southern extremity of Hindoostan, Ceylon, the Malay Peninsula. Southern Siam, and ends
at sunset on the eastern coast of Luzon in the Philippines.

Astronomical (Constants*
The mean obliquity of the ecliptic for the year 1901 is 23° 27' 7". 6. Mean annual dim-
inution, 0".46.
The present accepted value of the solar parallax is 8". 81 at the earth' s mean distance, which
is 92, 790, 000 miles, with a probable error of about 75, 000 miles more or less.
The eccentricity of the earth' s orbit is 0. 016771 ; we are therefore 3, 112, 560 miles nearer to
the sun at perihelion (January 1) than at aphelion (about July 1).
Length of the sidereal year, 365 days, 6 hours, 9 minutes, 9. 6 seconds of mean time.
Length of the tropical year (from equinox to equinox), 365 days, 5 hours, 48 minutes, 46.07
seconds of mean time.
Mean distance from earth to moon, 238, 850 miles.
The length of a second' s pendulum, that is, one which vibrates once in a second, in vacuo,

ASTRONOMICAL C .NSTANTS— Con^mued.
at anv place whose latitude is I, is 39.01254 + 0.20827 sin" inches. At New York it is
39.1013 inches.
The acceleration of gravity in one second of mean solar time is 32. 086528 + 0. 171293 sin*;
faet. The half of this is the distance through which a body falls (in a vacuum) in one second.
The velocity of light is 186, 330 miles per second.
Light requires 8 minutes and 18 seconds to pass from the sun to the earth when at its
mean distance, as given above : therefore, when we look at the sun we see him not where he
actualh' is, but where he was about 8 minutes and 18 seconds ago ; his trxie place is then always
in atlviince of his apparent place.

From June 16 to August 1 both the upper and lower transits take place during daylight.
The azimuth at the time of greatest eastern or western elongation can be easily computed from
the formula: g^j^ ^ _ sin p
cos I
where .4 denotes the azimuth, p the ix)lar distance, and I the latitude of the place.
DATE OF GREATEST ELONGATION.
To find the time of greatest eastern or western elongation, let iiTdenote the hour angle, and I
and p as before, then we shall have
cos H= tan p tan I.
And the hour angle in mean time is
Hm = H'>x 00664846.
This quantity, H,i\. added to or .subtracted from the time of transit given above, according
to tlie elongation required, will give the mean time of the greatest elongation at any place whoso
north latitude is I.

HBuration of «Stinis!)int on Wiviitt^ S^X^ttn KtxtiUx^.
The acquisition of Porto Rico, the Sandwich and Philippine Islands, and a portion of the Navi-
gator or Samoan Group has very considerably affected the duration or continuous sunshine on our
territory. The mathematical discussion of this subject would be out of place here, but any one
who desires to inform himself on this matter can easily and Batisfactorily do so by using a
terrestrial globe having an artificial horizon attached to it, and carefully complying with the
following instructions : Place the globe so that the North Pole shall be directed toward the north,
and elevate it23>^o above the horizon as indicated by the brass meridian. Assuming, of course, that
the sun is in the zenith, this will be the position of the earth in reference to the sun at the Summer
solstice, June 21. As we turn the globe on its axis from west to east, the sun will be rising at all
places on the western and setting at all places on the eastern horizon, and we shall find on turning
the globe through an entire revolution that some portion or other of our territory— including ihe
islands named above— will always be above the horizon or will have continous sunshine during the
twenty- four hours. If we now depress the North Pole 23^° below the horizon we shall have the
relative position of things at the Winter solstice, December 21, and we shall find theoppositecouditions
to prevail: that is to say, the sun will not now shine continuously on our territorj', but some
portion of it will always be involved in darkness or beloiv the horizon.
Again, if we place the poles of the globe in the horizon, which is the relative position at the equi-
noxes, March 21 and September 21, and turn the globe through a complete revolution, we shall
find that for a very short time during the twenty- four hours the whole of our territory will be below
the horizon or in darkness. Finally, let us elevate the North Pole aooutso above the horizon, then we
shall find, as we revolve the globe on its axis, that some portion ot our territory is always above the
horizon or has sunshine. Therefore, we conclude that when the sun's northern declination exceeds
50, or from the 3d of April to the 10th of September, the sun will snine continuously over some part or
other of United States territory.
If we consider the effect of refraction, which accelerates the time of rising and retards the time of
setting, the above dates may be practically extended to within two or three days of the equinoxes.
Great Britain, France, and Holland are the only nations on whose tiominions the sun never
sets. Those of Great Britain are very extensive and scattered far and wide over both hemispheres, so
that while the sun may be setting at one, it is rising on another. The French possessions consist for
the most part of numerous small islands in the Atlantic, Indian, and Pacific Oceans, with continental
territories in South America, Africa, and Asia, and accordingly are so distributed that the sun is
always above the horizon of some of them. The foreign possessions of Holland are far more extensive
than most people imagine. With the exception of Dutcn Guiana in South America, they consist of
two groups of islands— one on the coast of Venezuela and the other embracing Sumatra, Java, Celebes,
portions of Borneo and New Guinea and a host of smaller islands scattered throughout the East Indian
Archipelago, extending over 46° of longitude. These, with Holland itself, are so situated as to their
diflference of longitude that the sun is always shining on some of them.

The weight of a cubic foot of distilled water at a temperature of 60° F. is 1,000 ounces Avoir-
dupois, verv nearly, therefore the weight (in ounces. Avoirdupois) of a cubic foot of anj- of the sub-
stances in tlie above table is found by multiplying^ the specific gravities by 10, thus:— one cubic foot
of oak weighs 1,170 ounces; one cubic foot of marble 2.700 ounces, and so on.

The above estimate was made by Ernest George Ravenstein, F. R. G. S. , the geographer and
statistician, and is for 1890.
An estimate of population of the earth, made by Drs. Wagner and Supan, editors of
"Bevolkerung der Erde" (Perthes, Gotha, 1891), is as follows: Europe, 357,379,000; Asia,
825,954,000; Africa, 163,953,000; America, 121, 713, (XX); Australia, 3,230,000; Oceanic
Islands, 7,420,000; polar regions, 80,400. Total, 1,479,729,400. The estimate of area of
the continents and islands by the same authorities is 52, 821, 684.
Ravenstein' s estimate of the earth' s fertile region, in square miles, is 28, 269, 200 ; steppe,
13,901,000; desert, 4,180,000; polar region, 4,888,800.
The population of the earth at the death of the Emperor Augustus, estimated bv Bodio, was
54,000,000. The population of Europe hardly exceeded 50,000,000 before the fifteenth
century. — MvXhaU.
The area and cubic contents of the earth, according to the data of Clark, given above, are:
Surface, 196, 971, 984 square miles ; cubic contents, 259, 944, 035, 515 cubic miles.
Murray (Challenger expedition) states the greatest depth of the Atlantic Ocean at 27,366
feet: Pacific Ocean, 30,000 feet; Indian Ocean, 18,582 feet; Southern Ocean, 25,200 feet;
Arctic Ocean, 9, OOO feet. The Atlantic Ocean has an area, in square miles, of 24, 536, (XM.) ;
Pacific Ocean. 50,309.000; Indian Ocean, 17,084,000; Arctic Ocean, 4, 781, (XX); Southern
Ocean, 30, 592, (XX). The highest mountain is believed to be Deodhunga, one of the Himalayas,
29,(K)2 feet.

The human family is subject to forty- two principal governments. As to their form they may
be classified as follows: Absolute monarciiies, China, Korea, Morocco, Persia, Russia, Siam,
Turkey; Li ilcd mo archies, Austria- Hungary, Belgium, British Empire, Denmark, Germany,
Greece, Italv, Japan, Netherlands, Portugal, Roumania, Servia, Sweden and Norway, Spaiii ;

Guatemala. Havti, Honaura.s, Mexico, Nicaragua, Paraguay, Peru, Salvador, San Domingo,
Switzerland, Ignited States of America, Uruguay, Venezuela. Besides these are the undefined
despotisms ot Central Africa, and a few insignificant independent States.
The average duration of human life is about SS years. One- quarter of the people on the earth
die before age (i, one- half before age 10, and only about 1 person of each 1(K) born lives to age
65. The deaths are calculated at 67 per minute, 97. 790 per day, and 35, 639, 835 per year ; the
births at 70 per miuute, 1(X), 800 per day, and 36, 792, 000 per year.

These estimates by Mulhall (1891) exhibit the superior growth of the English language iu the last
ninety years. Another authority (see ^I^Kuglish-Speakin^ Religioiis Coinmnnities " ) estimates the

2^he Geological Strata.
57
STije <2S^rolti3ical .Strata*
The strata composinpr the earth' s cnist is divideti by most geologists into two great classes :
1. Those generally attributed to the agency of water. 2. To the action of fire ; which may be
subdivided as follows: (a) Aqueous formations, stratified, rarely crj'stalline (sedimentary or
fossiliferous rocks; metamorphic or un fossil if erous). (6) Igneous formations, unstratified,
crj-stalline (volcanic, as basalt; platonic, as granite).
The geological record is classified into five main divisions or periods: 1. The Archsean, life-
less and dawn of life. 2. The Palaeozoic (ancient life). 3. The Mesozoic (middle life). 4. The
Cenozoic (recent life). 5. Quaternary, the age in which man' s first appearance is indicated.

Adapted for Use with Aneroid Barometers,
a rising barometer.
A RAPID rise indicates unsettled weather.
A gradual rise indicates settled weather.
A rise with dry air and cold increasing in Summer indicates
wind from the northward; and if rain has fallen, better weather
may be expected.
A rise with moist air and a low temperature indicates wind and
rain from the northward.
A rise with southerly winds indicates fine weather.
A STEADY BAROMETER.
With dry air and seasonable temperature indicates a continuance
of very fine weather.
A FALLING BAROMETER.
A rapid fall indicates stormy weather.
A rapid fall with westerly wind indicates stormy weather from
the northward.
A fall with a northerly wind indicates storm, with rain and hail
in Summer, and snow in Winter.
A fall with increased moisture in the air, and heat increasing,
indicates wind and rain from the southward.
A fall with dry air and cold increasing in Winter indicatessnow.
A fall after very calm and warm weather indicates rain with
squally weather.
The barometer rises for northerly winds, including from north-
west by north to the eastward for dry, or less wet weather, for less
wind, or for more than one of these changes, except on a few
occasions, when rain, hail, or snow comes from the northward with
strong wind.
The barometer falls for southerly wind, including from south-
east by south to the westward, for wet weather, for stronger wind
or for more than one of these changes, except on a few occasions,
when moderate wind, with rain or snow, comes from the north-
ward.

OF THE WEATHER BUREAU, U. S. DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE.
The Weather Bureau furnishes, when practicable, for the benefit of all interests dependent upon
weather conditions, the "Forecasts" which are prepared daily at the Central Ottice in Washington,
I). C. , and certain designate<i stations. These forecasts are telegraphed to stations of the Weather
Bureau, railway otHcials, postmasters, and many others, to be communicated to the public by
means of flags or steam whistles. The flags adopted for this purpose are live in number, and of the
forms and colors indicated below :
EXPLANATION OF FLAG SIGNALS.
No. 1.
White Flag.
No. 2. No. 3.
Blue Flag. White and Blue Flag.
No. 4.
Black Triangular ITlag.
No. 6.
White Flag with
black square in
centre.
Clear or fair weather. Rain or snow. Local rain or snow. Temperature signal. Cold wave.
When number 4 is placed above number 1, 2, or 3, it indicates warmer; when below,
colder; when not displayed, the temperature is expected to remain about stationary. During
the late Spring and early Fall the cold- wave flag is also used to indicate anticipated frosts.
WHISTLE SIGNALS.
A warning blast of from fifteen to twenty seconds duration is sounded to attract atten-
tion. After this warning the longer bla-sts (of from four to six seconds duration) refer to
weather, and shorter blasts (of from one to three seconds duration) refer to temperature; those
for weather are sounded first.
Blasts. Indicate.
One long Fair weather.
Two long Rain or snow.
Three long Local rain or snow.
Blasts. Indicate.
One short Lower temperature.
Two short Higher temperature.
Three short Cold wave.
Bj' repeating each combination a few times, with intervals of ten seconds, liability to error
in reading the signals may be avoided .
As far as practicable" the forecast messages will be telegraphed at the expense of tlie
Weather Bureau; but if this is impracticable, they will be famished at the regular commercial
rates and sent ' 'collect. " In no case will the forecasts be sent to a second address in any
place, except at the expense of the applicant.
Persons desiring to display the flags or sound the whistle signals for the benefit of the pub-
lic should communicate with" the Weather Bureau oflBcials in charge of the climate and crop
service of their respective States, the central stations of which are as follows:
Alabama, Montgomery.

The Athenians began the year in June, the Macedonians in September, the Romans first in March
and afterward in January, the Persians on August 11, the ancient Mexicans on February 23, the Mo-
hammedans in Julj'. The Chinese year, which begins early in February, is similar to the Moham-
medan in having 12 months of 29 and 30 days alternately; but in every nineteen years there are .seven
years which have 13 months. This is not quite correct, and the Chinese have therefore formed a
cycle of 60 years, in which period 22 intercalary months occur.

* Most of this loss was caused by the tornado which swept over St. Louis and adjacent territory
May 27, 1896.
K^t (ffialbrston J^urricane of 1900»
A TROPiCAi. hurricane visited the southern coast of the United States September 6-9, 1900, the
fury of which reached its climax at and near Galveston, Texas, at 1.45 o'clock a.m., Sunday, Septem-
ber 9. As Galveston is situated on a low island thirty miles long and but a mile or two wide where
the city is built and exposed to the open gulf, without obstruction, the effects of the powerful and con-
tinued pressure of the wind on the waves were to lift them many feet above the ordinary high-tide,
and the entire city was submerged. There was a loss of life and property unparalleled in the history of
similar disasters in the United States, and this loss was extended to the mainland and the neighbor-
ing islands. [See ' ' Record of Events " for the statistics of loss. ] The United States Weather Bureau
reports that the highest velocity of the wind at Galveston during the hurricane was 84 miles an hour.

Note.— The above table was prepared for Tke World Almanac by the Geographic Branch of the
United States Geological Survey. It should be stated in connection with this table that it presents
only points whose heights are matters of record, and that in several cases in the high mountain region
of the far West and the Pacific Slope it is well known that there are higher points within the State or
Territory whose heights are not yet known with accuracy, and consequentl.v cannot be given.
This table was revised by the United States Geological Survey to November 1, 1900.

{Revised December, 1900, at the New York Post- Office, for The World Almanac. )
DOMESTIC RATES OF POSTAGE.
All mailable matter for transmission by the United States mails within the United States is
divided into four classes, under the following regulations. ( Domestic rates apply to Porto Rico,
Guam, Hawaii, and the Philippines. )
First-Class Matter.— This class includes letters, postal cards, and anything sealed or
otherwise closed against inspection, or anything containing writing not allowed as an accom-
paniment to printed matter under class three.
Rates of letter postage to any part of the United States, two cents per ouvce or fraction thereof .
Rates on local or drop letters at free delivery offices, two cents per ounce or fraction thereof.
At offices where there is no free delivery by carriers, one cent per ounce or fraction thereof.
Rates on postal cards, one cent (double or "reply' 'cards, two cents). Nothing must be added
or attached to a postal card, except that a printed address slip may be pasted on the address or
message side. The addition of anything else subjects the card to letter postage. A card contain-
ing any threat, offensive dun, or any scurrilous or indecent communication will not be forwarded.
The rule that has heretofore existed excluding from the face of a postal card words indicating the
occupation or business of the addressee has been revoked. In future these additions, or others
of a like general character, will be held to be constructively a part of the address, and therefore
permissible. Cards that have been spoiled in printing or otherwise will not be redeemed.
' ' Private Mailing Cards ' ' bearing written messages may be transmitted in the mails,
domestic and foreign, at the rate of a cent apiece, stamps to be affixed by the sender; such
cards to be sent openly in the mails, to be no larger, and to be approximately of the same form,
quality, and weight as the stamped postal card now in general use in the United States.
To be entitled to the privileges given by this act of Congress, mailing cards must conform
to the following conditions :
1. Each card must be an unfolded piece of cardboard, not exceeding 3>/4 by SJ^^ inches, and not less thanS 15-16 by 4 IS-16
inches in size.
2. Tbe quality and weight must be substantially that of the Government posial card of like size.
3. Theymay be of any color which does not interfere with the legibility of the address.
4. Each card must bear these words at the top of the address side : " Private Mailing Card — Authorized by act of Congress
of May 19, 1898," placed thereon by me.ms of printing or hand-stamp.
5. Cards conforming to the conditions of paragraphs 1 to 4, inclusive, are admissible for transmission in ttie domestic
mails, including I'orio Kico, Guam. H.-iwaii, and the Philippine Islands, and to places in Canada and Mexico, at the postage
rate of one cent each, prepaid by stamps affixed.
6. Cards conforming to the conditions of paragraphs 1 to 4, inclusive, will be rendered admissible to the Postal Union
mails by the addition of the words " Postal Card — Car.e Postale " on the face near the top, either by writing, printing, or
hand-stamp, at the postage rate of two cents eac i, prepaid by stamps affixed.
7. Th'3 message on the cards may hi in writing or in print, and the message side may bear advertisements and illustrations
in any color.
8. The face of the cards shall be reserved for postage stamps, postmarks, and addresses, which latter may be in writing,
printing, or by moans of a stamp or adhesive label of not more than three-fourths of an inch by two inches in size ; provided
that the sender may in the same manner place his name and aJdress on the back or the face of the card, and that advertisements
and illustrations may be prin'.ed on tie face of the cards if they do not interfere wiih a jerfectly distinct address and postmark.
9. AVTien Private Mailing Cards are prepared by printers and stationers for sale, they should, in addition to conforming to
all the conditions of paragraphs 1 to 4, inclusive, bear on the face near the top the words " Postal Card — Carte Postale," w"hich
addition will render them admissible to the Postal Union, as well as the domestic mails. Such cards should also bear in the
upper right-hand corner of the face an oblong diagram containing the words " Place postage stamp here," and across the
bottom the words " This side for the address."
10. The words " Private Mailing Card " are permissible only on cards that conform to the conditions prescribed by this
order; other cards bearing these words, or otherwise purporting to be issued under authority of the act of May I'.i, 189.S, ara
inadmissible to the mails.
11. The privilege given by the act is not intended to work a discontinuance of the Government postal cards. These will
be Issued and sold the same as heretofore.
Rates on specially delivered letters, ten cents on each letter in addition to the regular postage.
This entitles the letter to immediate delivery by special messenger. Special delivery stamps are
sold at post-offices, and must be affixed to such letters. An ordinary ten- cent stamp affixed to a
letter will not entitle it to special delivery. The delivery, at carrier offices, extends to the limits
of the carrier routes. At non- carrier offices it extends to one mile from the post-office. Post-
masters are not obliged to deliver beyond these limits, and letters addressed to places beyond
must await delivery in the u.sual way, notwithstanding the special delivery stamp.
Prepayment by stamps invariably required. Postage on all letters should be fuUv prepaid,
but if prepaid one full rate and no more, they will be forwarded, and the amount of deficient
postage collected on delivery ; if wholly unpaid, or prepaid with less than one full rate and
deposited at a post-office, the addressee will be notified to remit postage ; and if he fails to do so,
they will be sent to the Dead Letter Office ; but they will be returned to the sender if he is located
at the place of mailing, and if his address be printed or written upon them.
Letter rates are charged on all productions by the typewriter or manifold process, and on all
printed imitations of typewriting or manuscript, unless such reproductions are presented at
post-office windows in the minimum number of twenty identical copies.
Letters (but no other class of mail matter) will be returned to the sender free, if a request to
that effect is printed or written on the envelope. There is no limit of weight for first- class matter.
Prepaid letters will be reforvvarded from one post-office to another upon the written requestof
the person addressed, without additional charge for postage. The direction on forwarded letters
may be changed as many times as may be necessary to reach the person addressed.
Second-Class Matter. —This class includes all newspapers, periodicals, or matter ex-
clusively in print and regularly issued at stated intervals as frequently as four times a year, from
a known office of publication or news agency, to actual subscribers or news agents, and transient
newspapers and publications of this character mailed by persons other than publishers. Also
periodical publications of benevolent and fraternal societies, etc. This applies to all reports and
the like made by officers of societies organized under the lodge system and having a member-
ship of a thousand persons, and of the bulletins and proceedings of strictly professional,
literary, historical, and scientific associations tind institutions, trade- unions, etc., provided
68 Postal Information.
only that these be published not less often than four times a year, and that they be printed on
and be bound in paper. Publishers who wish to avail themselves of the privileges of the act
are required to mate formal application to the department through the postmaster at the
place oi publication, producing satisfactory evidence that the organizations represented come
within the pu^^iew of the law, and that the object of the publications Is to further the objects and
purposes of^the organizations.
Rates of postage to publishers, <yixe cent a pound or fractional part thereof, prepaid in cur-
rency. Publications designed primarily for advertising or free circulation, or not having a
legitimate list of subscribers, are excluded from the pound rate, and pay third- class rates.
Whenever the general character and manner of issue of a periodical publication is changed
in the interest of the publisher, or of an advertiser or other person, by the addition of unusual
quantities of advertisements, or of matter different from that usually appearing in the publica-
tion, or calculated to give special prominence to some particular business or businesses, or
otherwise— especially where larg^e numbers of copies are circulated by or in the interest of par-
ticular persons, or where there is to be an excessive number of alleged sample copies mailed, or
where the issue is to be sold at a special and different price than that charged for the customary
issues, the second-class rates of postage will be denied that issue; and if there be repeated
instances of such irregularities, it will be excluded from the mails as second-class matter.
Such ' ' Christmas, " " New Year's, ' ' and other special issues, including ' 'Almanacs, ' ' as
are excluded from second-class privileges by the terms above specified may be transmitted by
mail only when prepaid by postage stamps at the rate applicable to third-class matter — one cent
for each two ounces or fraction thereof.
Publications sent to actual subscribers in the county where published are free, unless mailed
for local delivery at a letter- carrier office.
Rates of postage on transient newspapers, magazines, or periodicals, one cent for each four
ounces or fraction thereof. It should be observed that the rate is one cent for each four ounces, not
one cent for each paper contained in the same wrapper. Second- class matter will be entitled to
special delivery when special delivery ten- centstamps are affixed in addition to the regular postage.
Transient second-class matter must be so wrapped as to enable the postmaster to inspect it.
The sender' s name and address may be written in them, but any other writing subjects the mat-
ter to letter postage. The name and address of the sender may also be written on the wrapper.
Third-class Matter.— Mail matter of the third class includes printed books, pampnlets,
engra\'ings, circulars (in print or by the hectograph, electric -pen, or similar process), and
other matter wholly in print, proof-sheets, corrected proof-sheets, and manuscript copy accom-
panying the same.
The rate on matter of this class is one cent for each two ounces or fraction f hereof.
Manuscript unaccompanied by proof-sheets must pay letter rates.
Third- class matter must admit of easy inspection, otherwise it will be charged letter rates on
delivery. It must be fully prepaid, or it will not be forwarded.
The limit of weight is four jxDunds, except single books in separate packages, on which the
weight is not limited. It is entitled, like matter of the other classes, to special delivery when
special delivery stamps are affixed in addition to the regular postage.
Upon matter of the third-class, or upon the wrapper or envelope inclosing the same, or the
tag or label attached thereto, the sender may write his own name, occupation, and residence or
business address, preceded by the word ' 'from, ' ' and may make marks other than by written
or printed Avords to call attention to any word or passage in the text, and may correct any typo-
graphical errors. There may be placed ujxDn the blank leaves or cover of any book, or printed
matter of the third -class, a simple manuscript dedication or inscription not of the nature of a
personal correspondence. Upon the wrapper or envelope of third- class matter, or the tag or
label attached thereto, may be printed any matter mailable as third-class, but there must be
left on the address side a space sufficient for the legible address and necessary stamps.
Fourth-Class Matter. — Fourth- class matter is all mailable matter not included in the
three preceding classes which is so prepared for mailing as to be easily withdrawn from the wrapper
and examined. It embraces mercnandise and samples of every description, and coin or specie.
Rate of jxistage, one cent for each ounce or fraction thereof {except seeds, roots, bulbs, cuttings,
cions, and plants, the rate on which is one cent for each two ounces or fraction, thereof). This matter
must be fully prepaid, or it will not be forwarded. The affixing of special delivery teiil-cent
stamps in addition to the regular postage entitles fourth- class matter to special delivery. (See
remarks under ' ' first- class matter. ' ' )
Articles of this class that are liable to injure or deface the mails, such as glass, sugar, needles,
nails, pens, etc. , must be fi^rst wrapped in a bag, box, or open envelope and then secured in an-
other outside tube or box, made of metal or hard wood, without sharp comers or edges, and
having a sliding clasp or screw lid, thus securing the articles in a double package. The public
should bear in mind that the first object of the department is to transport the mails safely, and
every other interest is made subordinate.
Such articles as poisons, explosives, or inflammable articles, live animals, insects, or sub-
stances exhaling a bad odor will not be forwarded in any case.
Firearms may only be sent in detached parts.
The regulations respectini^ the mailing of liquids are as follows : Liquids, not ardent, vinous,
spirituous, or malt, ana not liable to explosion, spontaneous combustion, or ignition by shock or
jar, and not inflammable (such as kerosene, naphtha, or turpentine), may be admitted to the
mails for transportation within the United States. When in glass bottles or vials, such bottles
or vials must be strong enough to stand the shock of handling in the mails, and must be in-
closed in a metal, wooden, or papier mache block or tube, not less than three- sixteenths of an
inch thick in the thinnest part, strong enough to support the weight of mails piled in bags and
resist rough handling: and there must be provided, between the bottle and said block or tube,
a cushion of cotton, felt, or some other absorbent sufficient to protect the glass from shock in
1

handling ; the block or tube to be closed by a tightly fitting lid or cover, so adjusted as to make
the block or tube water tight and to prevent the leakage of the contents in case of breaking
the glass. When inclosed in a tin cylinder, metal case, or tube, such cylinder, case, or tube
should have a lid or cover so secured as to make the case or tube water tight, and should be
securelv fastened in a wooden or napier mache block (open only at one end), and not less in
thickness and strength than above described. Manufacturers or dealers intending to transmit
articles or samples in considerable quantities should submit a sample package, showing their
mode of packing, to the postmaster at the mailing office, who will see that the conditions of this
section are carefully observed. The limit of admissible liquids and oils is not exceeding four
ounces, liquid measure.
Limit of weight of fourth- class matter (excepting liquids), four ixjunds.
The name and address of the sender, preceded by the word ' 'from, ' ' also any marks, numbers,
names, or letters for the purpose of description, such as prices, quantity, etc. , may be written
on the wrapper of fourth- class matter without additional postage charge. A request to the
delivering postmaster may also be written asking him to notify the sender in case the package is
not delivered. . , , ^ . ,. . ^
Registration.— All kinds of postal matter may be registered at the rate of eight cents for each
pacAa^e in addition to the regular rates of postage, to be fully prepaid by stamps. Each pack-
age must bear the name and address of the sender, and a receipt will be returned from the
person to whom addressed. Mail matter can be registered at all post-offices in the United States.
An indemnity— not to exceed $10 for any one registered piece, or the actual value of the
piece, if it is less than $10— shall be paid for the loss of first-class registered matter.
Domestic Money Orders.— Domestic money orders are issued by money- order post-offices
for any amount up to $100, at the following rates :
For sums not exceeding $2. 50, 3 cents ; over $2. 50 to $5, 5 cents ; over $5 to $10, 8 cents ;
over $10 to $20, 10 cents ; over $20 to $30, 12 cents ; over $30 to $40, 15 cents ; over $40 to
$50, 18 cents ; over $50 to $60, 20 cents ; over $60 to $75, 25 cents ; over $75 to $100, 30 cents ;
two cents is added to each fee for war tax.
Htamped Envelopes.— Embossed stamped envelopes and newspaper wrappers of several
denominations, sizes, and colors are kept on sale at post-offices, singly or in quantities, at a
small advance on the postage rate. Stamps cut from stamped envelopes are valueless ; but post-
masters are authorized to give good stamps for stamped envelopes or newspaper wrappers that
may be spoiled in directing, if presented in whole condition and with satisfactory evidence.
All matter concerning lotteries, gift concerts, or schemes devised to defraud the public, or
for the purpose of obtaining money under false pretences, is denied transmission in the mails.
Applications for the establishment of post-offices should be addressed to the First Assistant
Postmaster- General, accompanied by a statement of the necessity therefor. Instructions will
then be given and blanks furnished to enable the petitioners to provide the department with the
necessary information.
The franking privilege was abolished .Tuly 1, 1873, but the following mail matter may be
sent free by legislative saving clauses, viz. :
1. All public documents printed by order of Congress, the Congressional Record and
speeches contained therein, franked by Members of Congress, or the Secretary of the Senate, or
Clerk of the House.
2. Seeds transmitted by the Secretary of Agriculture, or by any Member of Congress, pro-
cured from that Department.
3. All periodicals sent to subscribers within the county where printed.
4. Letters and packages relating exclusively to the business of the Government of the
United States, mailed only by officers of the same, publications required to be mailed to the
Librarian of Congress by the Copyright law, and letters and parcels mailed by the Smithsonian
Institution. All these must be covered by specially printed ' ' penalty ' ' envelopes or labels.
5. The Vice- President, Members and Members- elect and Delegates and Delegates- elect to
Congress may frank any mail matter, not over two ounces in weight, upon official or depart-
mental business.
All communications to Government officers and to Members of Congress are required to be
prepaid by stamps.
Suggestions to the Public {from the United Slates Official Postal- Guide). —Ma.il all letters, etc.,
as early as practicable, especially when sent in large .numbers, as is frequently the case with news-
papers and circulars. "" ■ .
All mail matter at large post-offices is necessarilj'- handled in great haste and should therefore in
all cases be so plainly addressed as to leave i<o koom for doubt and no excuse for error on
the part of postal employes. Names of States should be written in full (or their abbreviations very
distmctly written) in order to prevent errors which arise from the similarity of such abbreviations as
Cal., Col. ; Pa., Va. , Vt. ; Me., Mo., Md. ; loa., Ind. ; N. H. , N. M., N. Y., N. J., N. C. , D. C. ;
Miss., Minn., Mass.; Nev., Neb. ; Penn., Tenn., etc., when hastily or carelessly written. This is
especially necessary in addressing mail matter to places of which the names are borne by several
post-offices in different States.
Avoid as much as possible using envelopes made of flimsy paper, especially where more than one
sheet of paper, or any other article than paper, is inclosed. Being often handled, and even in the mail-
bags subject to pressure, such envelopes not infrequently split open, giving eause of complaint.
Never send money or any other article of value through the mail except either by means ol a money
order or in a registered letter. Any person who sends money or jewelry iu an unregistered letter not
only runs a risk of losing his property, but exposes to temptation every one through whose hands his
letter passes, and may be the means of ultimately bringing some clerk or letter-carrier to ruin.
See that every letter or package bears the full name and post-office address of the writer, in order
to secure the return of the letter, if the person to whom it is directed cannot be found. A much larger
portion of the undelivered letters could be returned if the names and addresses of the senders were
always fully and plainly written or printed inside or on the envelopes. Persons who have large

•xaniined by postmasters. Poisonous, explosive, and inflammable substances are excluded. Parcels
nay be registered for 8 cents each to any of the above places, except Barbadoes.
Rates and conditions to countries not in the Universal Postal Union are noiv the same as those to Uni-
>ersal Postal Union countries.
GENERAL REGULATIONS RESPECTING FOREIGN MAILS.
Postage can be prepaid upon articles only by means of the postage stamps of the country in which
he articles are mailed. Hence articles mailed in one country addressed to another countrj' which
)ear postage stamps of the country to which they are addressed are treated as if they had no postage
tamps attached to them.
Unpaid letters received from the Postal Union are chargeable with 10 cents per 15 grams Q^
)unce). Insufficiently prepaid correspondence of ail kinds is chargeable with double the amount of
he deficient postage.
Matter to be sent in the mails at less than letter rates must be so wrapped that it can be readily
'xamined at the office of delivery, as well as the mailing office, without destroying the wrapper.
Newspapers and periodicals sent in the mails to foreign countries other than those of the Postal
Jnion should be wrapped singly. Those sent by publishers to regular subscribers in Canada and
viexico are transmissible as in domestic mails, except that packages addressed to Mexico must not
sxceed 4 pounds 6 ounces in weight.
The United States two-cent postal card should be vised for card correspondence with foreign coun-
ries (except Canada and Mexico, to which countries the one-cent card is transmissible), but where
hese cards cannot be obtained, it is allowable to use for this purpose the United States one-cent postal
;ard with a one-cent United States adhesive postage stamp attached thereto. Private cards can now
)e used if conforming in size, etc., to government cards, and bearing words "Postal Card— Carte
i^ostale. ' '
Mail matter of all kinds received from any country of the Postal Union is required to be refor-
varded at the request of the addressee, from one post-office to another, or to any foreign country em-
)raced in the Postal Union, without additional charge for postage.
All articles prohibited from domestic mails are also excluded from circulation in the mails to and
rom foreiga countries. Postal cards or letters addressed to go around the world will not be for-
varded, being prohibited.
The act of March 3, 1883, imposes a duty of 25 per cent ad valorem on all printed matter not
therein otherwise provided for, without regard to mode of importation. Under said act all printed
natter, except newspapers and periodicals, and except printed matter other than books imported in
he mails for personal use, is subject to the regular duty of 25 per cent ad valorem.

Metric 8ystem.
73
L^
^^
TiTE Metric System has been adopted by Mexico, Brazil, Chile, Peru, etc. , and except Russia
and Great Britain, where it is permissive, by all European nations. Various names of the preceding
systems are, however, frequently used : In Germany, % kilogram = 1 pound ; in Switzerland, 3-10
of a metre == 1 foot, etc. If the first letters of the prefixes deka, hecto, kilo, myria, from the Greek,
and d€ci,centt,mili, from the Latin, are used in preference to our plain English, 10, 100. etc. , it is best
to employ capital letters for the multiples and small letters for the subdivisions, to avoid ambiguities
In abbreviations : 1 dekametre or 10 metres = 1 Dm. ; 1 decimetre or 1-10 of a metre = 1 dm.
The Metre, unit of length, is nearly the ten- millionth part of a quadrant of a meridian, of the
distance between Equator and Pole. The International Standard Metre is, practically, nothing else
but a length defined by the distance between two lines on a platinum-iridium bar at Qo Centigrade,
deposited at the International Bureau of Weights and Measures, Paris, France.
The Litre, unit of capacity, is derived from the weight of one kilogram pure water at greatest
density, a cube whose edge is one-tenth of a metre and, therefore, the one- thousandth part of a
metric ton.
The Gram, unit of weight, is a cube of pure water at greatest density , whose edge is one-hundredth
of a metre, and, therefore, the one-thousandth part of a kilogram, and the one-millionth part of a
metric ton.
One silver dollar weighs 26 grams, 1 dime =• 2}4 grams, 1 five- cent nickel — 5 grams.
The Metric System was legalized in the United States on July 28, 1866, when Congress enacted as
follows :
' ' The tables in the schedule hereto annexed shall be recognized in the construction of contracts,
and in all legal proceedings, as establishing, in terms of the weights and measures now in use in the
United States, the equivalents of the weights and measures expressed therein in terms of the metric
system, and the tables may lawfully be used for computing, determining, and expressing in custom-
ary weights and measures the weights and measures of the metric system. ' '
The following are the tables annexed to the above:

THE METRIC SYSTEM S!!V5PL!F!ED.
The following tables of the metric system of weights and measures have been simplified as much
IS possible for The Wokld Almanac by omitting such denominations as are not in practical,
•veryday use in the countries where the system is used exclusively.
TABLES OF THE SYSTEM,
liCUgth.— The denominations in practical use are millimetres (mm.), centimetres (cm.), metres
m. ). and kilometres (km. ).
10 mm. = 1cm. ; 100 cm. = lm. ; 1,000 m. = 1km. Xote. —A decimetre is 10 cm.
Weight.— The denominations in use are grams (g. ), kilos* (kg. ), and tons (metric tons).
l,00<yg. = lkg.; 1,000 kg. = 1 metric ton. ... x .,,..„ s
Capacity.— The denominations m use are cubic centimetres (c. c. ) and litres (1.).
1, 000 c. c. = 1 1. Note. —A hectolitre is 100 1. (seldom used).
Eelation of capacity and weight to length : A cubic decimetre is a litre, and a litre of water weighs
a kilo.
APPROXIMATE EQUIVALENTS.
A metre is about a yard ; a kilo is about 2 pounds; a litre is about a quart; a centimetre is about
\i inch ; a metric ton is about same as a ton ; a kilometre is about 3^ mile ; a cubic centimetre is about a
thimbleful ; a nickel weighs about 5 grams.

The measures of length and the weights are nearly, practically, the same as those in use in the
United States. The English ton is 2,240 lbs. avoirdupois, the same as the long ton, or shipping ton
of the United States. The English hundredweight is 112 lbs. avoirdupois, the same as the long
hundredweight of the United States. The metre has been legalized at 39. 37079 inches, but the length
of 39. 370432 inches, as adopted by France, Germany, Belgium, and Russia, is frequently used.
The Imperial gallon, the basis of the system of capacity, involves an error of about 1 part in 1,836:

Union, and their coins are alike in weight and fineness, occasionally differing, however, in name.
The same system has been in part adopted by Spain, Servia, Bulgaria, Russia, and Roumania, but they
have not joined the Union, P'rancs and centimes of France, Belgium, and Switzerland are respectively
designated lire and centissimi in Italj'; drachma! and lepta in Greece; dinars and paras in Servia;
pesetas and centimes in Spain : lej'S and banis in Roumania; leya and stotinkis in Bulgaria. Similarly
the Scandinavian countries, ^.orway and Sweden and Denmark, employ coins of the same weight and
fineness, their names being also alike. Most of the South American States possess a standard coin,
equal in weight and fineness to the silver 5- franc piece generally termed a ' ' peso. " — Whitalcer.

The Imaginary Mr. Fogg, of Jules Verne's story, made the circuit of the world in 80 days. But
George Francis Train made a record in 1890 of 67 days, 13 hours, 3 minutes, and 3 seconds, stopping
over one day in New York (time not included). "Nellie Bly's" time for The World was 72 days,
6 hours, 11 minutes, and 14 seconds. The great Siberian Rtvilroad, however, when completed, will
vastly reduce the time uece.ssary to circumnavigate the globe. The Russian Minister of Railroads has
made the following public prediction of the time that will be required for world transit by the way of
Siberia, provided maximum speed is attained throughout and connections are immediate:

DESCRIPTION OF HAWAII.
Hawaii was annexed to the United States by joint resolution of Congress July 6, 1898. A bill to
create Hawaii a Territory of the United States was passed by Congress and approved April 30, 1900.
The area of the several islands of the Hawaiian group is as follows: Hawaii, 4,210 square miles;
Maui, 760; Oahu, 600; Kauai, 590; Molokai, 270; Lanai, 150; Niihau, 97; Kahoolawe, 63, Total,
6,740 square miles. , . , „ ^ ^. , .
At the time of the discovery of the islands by Captain Cook in 17 <8 the native population was
about 200,000 This has steadily decreased, so that vX the last census the natives numbered but 31,019,

The remainder were Germans, French, Norwegians, South Sea Islanders, and representatives ot
other nationalities. The American population was 2. 73 per cent of the whole. The American popu-
lation has increased since annexation.
The first United States census of the islands was taken in 1900 with the following result: Hawaii
Island, 46,843; Kauai Island, 20, 662 ; Niihau Island, 172; Maui Island, 26,416: MoTokai Island and
Lanai Island, 2,604; Oahu Island, 68,504. Total of the territory, 154,001. The population of the
city of Honolulu is 39,306.
Nearly all the natives are Christians. In 1896 there were 23,773 Protestants, 26,302 Roman
Catholics, 4,886 Mormons, 44,306 Buddhists, etc., and 10, 192 not described.
There are 71 miles of railroad and about 250 miles of telegraph in the islands. Honolulu, the
capital, with a population of 28,061, is lighted by electricity, and has most of the local features of an
enterprising American city. The bulk of the business is done by Americans and Europeans.
Ot sugar, of which it is said the Hawaiian Islands are much more productive in a given area than
those of the West Indies, the exportation was 520, 168,232 pounds in 1897. Of coffee, the exportation
was 337,168 pounds in 1897; of rice, the exportation was 6, 499,499 pounds in 1897. In the matter of
imports, nearly all of the necessities of life, aside from sugar, fruits, and vegetables, are imported, the
products of the United States being given the preference in nearly all cases.
The new Territorial Government was inaugurated at Honolulu June 14, 1900. The inauguration
of Governor Dole took place on the steps of the Capitol at 10 o' clock a. m. Prayer was offered by the
Rev. E. S. Timoteo, pastor of Kaumakapili Church. Governor Dole's commission was then read by
Mr, Smith, the retiring Minister of Foreign Affairs, and the oath of oflBce was administered by Justice
Frear, of the Supreme Court under the Republic and Chief Justice of the Territory under the new
regime. After the reading of the Governor's inaugural address there was a review of the National
Guard of Hawaii, and then a reception to the public in the hall of the House of Representatives, the
old throne room of the palace. The reception was attended by several thousand persons, representing
every race and station. The ceremonies ended in the evening with a ball, which was largely attended.

THE CONSTITUTIONAL CONVENTION.
Thk President of the United States in hia message to Congress, December 3, 1900, In touching upon the relations of Cuba
with the Uniteil States, stated that on July 35, 19U0, be directed that a cail be issued for the election in Cuba for members of a
Constitutional Convention to frame a coastitution as a basis for a stable and independent government in the island. In pur-
suance thereof the Military Governor after citing the joint resolution of Congress A|)ril 28, 1898, said :
" Therefore^ it Is ordered that a general election be held in the Island of Cuba on the third Saturday
of September, in the vear 1900, to elect delegates to a convention to meet in the city of Havana at 12
o'clock noon on the first Monday of November, in the year 1900, to frame and adopt a constitution
for the people of Cuba, and as a part thereof to provide for and agree with the Government of the
United States upon the relations to exist between that Government and the Government of Cuba,
and to provide for the election by the people of officers under such constitution and the transfer of
government to the officers so elected.
" The election will be held in the several voting precincts of the island under and pursuant to the
provisions of the Electoral law of April 18, 1900, and the amendments thereof. "
The election was held on the 15th of September, and the convention assembled on the 5 th of November, 1900, and is now
in session.
In calling the convention to order, the Military Governor of Cuba made the following statement :
'• As Military Governor ot the island, representing the President of the United States, I call this
convention to order.
" It will be your duty, first, to frame and adopt a constitution for Cuba, and when that has been
done to formulate what in your opinion ought to be the relations between Cuba and the United States.
The constitution must be adequate to secure a stable, orderly, and free government.
" When you have formulated the relations which in your opinion ought to exist between Cuba and
the United States, the Government of the United States will doubtless take such action on its part as
shall lead to a final and authoritative agreement between the people of the two countries to the pro-
motion of their common interests. ♦ • •
" When the convention concludes its labors I will transmit to the Congress the constitution as
framed by the convention for its consideration and for such action as it may deem advisable.' '

PORTO RICO.
The island of Porto Rico, over which the flag of the United States was raised in token of formal
possession on October 18, 1898, is the most eastern of the Greater Antilles In the West Indies and is
separated on the east from the Danish island of St. Thomas by a distance of about fifty miles, and from
Hayti on the west by the Mona passage, seventy miles wide. Distances from San .Tuan.the capital, to
important points are as follows: New York, 1,420 miles; Charleston, S. C. , 1,200 miles; Key West,
Fla., l,050miles; Havana, 1,000 miles.
The island is a parallelogram in general outline, 108 miles from the east to the west, and from 87
to43 milesacioss, the area being about 3.600 square miles, or somewhat less than half that of the
State of New Jersey (Delaware has 2,050 square miles and Connecticut 4,990 square miles). The
population according to an enumeration made in 1887 was 798,565, of whom 474,933 were whites.
246,647 mulattoes, and 76,905 negroes. An enumeration taken by the United States Government
in 1900 showed a population of 653,243.
Porto Rico is unusually fertile, and its dominant industries are agriculture and lumbering. In
elevated regions the vegetation of the temperate zone is not unknown. There are more than 500
varieties of trees found m the forests, and the plains are full of palm, orange, and other trees. The
principal crops are sugar, coffee, tobacco, cotton, and maize, but oananas, rice, pineapples, and many
other fruits are important products. The largest article of export from Porto Rico is coffee, which is
over 63 per cent of the whale. The next largest is sugar, 28 per cent. The other exports in order of
amount are tobacco, honey, molasses, cattle, timber, and hides.
The principal minerals found in Porto Rico are gold, carbonates, and sulphides of copper and
magnetic oxide of iron in large quantities. Lignite is found at Utuado and Moca, and also yellow am-
ber. A large variety of marbles, limestones, and other building stones are deposited on the island,
but these resources are very luideveloped. There are salt works at Guanica and Salinac on the south
coast, and at Cape Rojo on the west, and these constitute the principal mineral industry in Porto Rico,
There are l:i7 miles of railway, with 170 miles under construction, and 470 miles of telegraph
lines. These connect the capital with the principal ports south and west. Submarine cables run from
San Juan to St. Thomas and Jamaica. The principal cities are Ponce, 27, 9o2 inhabitants ; Arecibo
with 30,000, and San Juan, the capital, with 32,048.
An act providing for a civil government for Porto Rico was passed by the Fifty-sixth Congress
and received the assent of the President April 12, 1900. A statement of its provisions will be found
on pages 92 and 93.
Under this act a civil government wa=! established, which went into effect May 1, 1900. , The fol-
lowing is a list of the Government ofhcials:
Governor, Charles H. Allen, salary $8,000; Secretary, W. H.Hunt, $4,000; Attornev-General,
J. A. Russell, $4,000; Treasurer, J. H. Hollander, $5,000; Auditor, J. R. t^arrison, $4,000; Com-
missioner of Interior, W. E. Elliot, $4,000; Commissioner of Education, M. G. Brumbaugh, $3,000.
The above, with the exception of the Governor, together with the five following, constitute the
Executive Council, or "Upper House:" J. C. Barbosa, R. M. Cintron, J. G. Benitez, J. G. Brioso,
and A. Crosas.
The House of Delegates, or Lower House, consists of 35 members, who were elected by the
people at the election in 1900.
The Judiciary for the island is as follows: Supreme Court of Porto Rico— Chief Justice, J. S.
Quinones, salary $5,000: Associate Justices, L. Sulzbecher, J, C. Hernandez, J. M. Figuerar, R. M.

GUAM.
The island of Guam, the largest of the Marianne or Ladrone Archipelago, was ceded by Spain to the
United States by Article 2 of the Treaty of Peace, concluded at Paris December 10, 1898. It lies in a
direct line from San Francisco to the southern part of the Philippines, and is 5,200 miles from San Fran-
cisco, and 900 miles from Manila. It is about 32 miles long and 100 miles in circumference, and has a
population of about 8,661, of whom 5,249 are in Agana, the capital. The inhabitants are mostly
immigrants or descendants of immigrants from the Philippines, the original race of the Ladrone Islands
being extinct. The prevailing language is Spanish. Nine-tenths of the islanders can read and write.
The island is thickly wooded, well watered and fertile, and possesses an excellent harbor.
Commander Taussip.of the United States gunboat Bennington, took possession of the island and raised
the United States flag over Fort Santa Cruz on February 1, 1899. The present Governor, who was
appointed by the President in 1900, is Lieutenant-Commander Seatoii Schroeder, U. S. N.
The United States flag was hoisted over Wake Island in January, 1899, by Commander Taussig, of
the Bennington, while proceeding to Guam. It is a small island in the direct route from Hawaii to Hong
Kong, about 2,000 miles from the first, and 3,000 miles from the second.
TUTUILA.
Tutulla, theSamoan island which, with its attendant islets, became a possession of the United
States by virtue of the tri- partite treaty with Great Britain and Germany in 1899, covers, according
to the Bureau of Statistics of the Treasury Department, fifty- four square miles, and has 4, 000 inbabi-
tants. It pos.sesses the most valuable Lsland harbor, Pago- Pago, in the South Pacific, and perhaps in
the entire Pacific Ocean. Commercially the island is unimportant at present, but is extremely valu-
able in its relations to the commerce of any nation desiring to cultivate transpacific commerce.
Ex-Chief Justice Chambers, of Samoa, saj's of Pago- Pago that ' ' The harbor could hold the entire
naval force of the United State.s, and is so perfectly arranged that only two vessels can enter at the
same time. The coaling station, being surrounded by high bluffs, cannot be reached by shells from
out.side.' ' ■
The Samoan Islands in the South Pacific are fourteen in number, and lie in a direct line drawn
from San Francisco to Auckland, New Zealand. They are 4, 000 miles from San Francisco. 2.200
miles from Hawaii, 1,900 miles from Auckland, 2.000 miles from Sydney, and 4,200 miles from
Manila. The inbahitnnts ore native Polynesians and Chrlstfanh of difTerent denominations.

President McKiNLEY, in his message to Congress in 1899, suggested that it seemed expedient
that the various American Republics, constituting the International Union, should be invited, at an
early date, to hold another conference. He suggested that it should be in the capital of one of the
countries that had not already enjoyed that honor.
__. ' -" " - [ Clerk
poses of the Conference, says:
Mr. Williams C. Fox, Chief Clerk of the Bureau of American Kepublics, in a statement of the pur-
' ' The Mexican Government took up this suggestion at once, and it has officially invited the states
comprising the Union to attend a conference to convene in the capital city of Mexico, commencing
October 22, 1901. The acceptance of the invitation by all the nations has been assured, and the
meeting of the plenipotentiaries promises to be one of great moment.
' ' Alter all that has gone before, the congress in the City of Mexico will convene under the most
pleasant auspices. Its programme has been so mapped out as to include many of the subjects treated
at the previous conference, as well as such new ones as may be submitted to it. But, above all, it will
be an international occasion of the first importance dedicated to intercontinental friendship, peace,
and prosperitv. As Mr, Mariscal, the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Mexico, has aptly said, in refer-
ence to It: 'Notforgettingthat civilization came to us from Europe, and that the great interests of
humanity are one, we must confess that in America there are special interests and closer bonds be-
tween her inhabitants, with fewer international complications to secure the welfare of her peoples.'
It seems peculiarlv appropriate that the threshold of the twentieth century should witness renewed
activity in conserving these special interests so forcibly pointed out by the distinguished Mexican
statesman." > •- • ^ _t:_;jj

* The French Academy is one of five academies, and the most eminent, constituting the Institute
of France. It was founded in 1636 by the Cardinal Richelieu, and reorganized in 1816. It is composed
of 40 members, elected for life, after personal application and the suDmission of their nomination to
the head of the State. It meats twice weekly, at the Palace Mazarin, 23 Quai Conti, Paris, and is
' ' the highest authority on everything appertaining to the niceties of the French language, to grammar,
rhetoric, and poetry, and the publication of the French classics. ' ' The chief officer is the secretary,
who has a life tenure of his position. The present permanent secretary is Marie L. A. G. Boissier, who
was elected an Academician in 1876. A chair in the Academy is the highest ambition of most literary
Frenchmen.
The other academies of the Institute of France are: The Academy of In.scriptions and Belle.s-
Lettres, with 40 members ; Academy of Sciences, with 68 members; Academy of Fine Arts, with 40
members (as follows: Painting, 14, sculpture, 8; architecture, 8; engraving, 4; musical composition,
6), and Academy of Moral and Political Science, with 40 members. All members are elected for life.

The ocean and lake coasts of the United States are picketed with the stations of the Life-Saving
Service attached to the United States Treasury Departnjent. Sumner I. Kimball is general superin-
tendent, with headquartera at Wa.shington, and there is a corps of inspectors, superintendents,
station keepers, and crews, extending over the entire coast line, together with a Board on Life-Saving
Appliances, composed of experts selected from the Revenue Marine Service, the Army, the Life-Sav-
ing Service, and civilians.
At the close of the last fiscal year the life-saving establishment embraced 268 stations, 194 being
on the Atlantic coast, 58 on the lakes, 15 on the Pacific coast, and 1 at the falls of the Ohio, Louis-

The JPhilippine Islands.
^"^t ]^f)tltpptne ilslantrfii.
The Philippine group, lying off the southern coast of Asia, between longitude 120 and 130 and
latitude 5 and 20 approximately, number about 2,000 islands, great and small, in a land and sea area
of 1,200 miles of latitude and 2,400 miles of longitude. The actual land area is about 140,000 miles.
The six New England States, New York, and New Jersey have about an equivalent area. The island
of Luzon, on which the capital city (Manila) is situated , is the largest member of the group, being
about the sire of the State of New York. Mindanao is nearlj' as large, but its population is very much
smaller. The latest estimates of areas of the largest islands are as follows: Luzon, 44,400; Min-
danao, 34,000; Samar, 4,800; Panay, 4,700; Miudoro, 4,000; Leyie, 3,800; Negros, 3,300; Cebu,
2,400.
The estimates of population vary from 7,500,000 to 10,000,000. A conservative estimate is
8,000,000. The late Spanish masters had never caused a census to be taken, and, indeed, some
parts of the islands are yet unexplored and inhabited by tribes nearly savage. Racially the inliabi-
tants are principally Malays. The country has been in the possession of Spain since 1565, and the
religion introduced by the proprietors has long been that of the natives. The church has been a strong
ruling power and the priesthood numerous. There are thirty different races, all speaking a different
dialect.
The following memoranda was prepared by Major-General F. V. Greene for the Government:
CLIMATE.
The climate is one of the best known in the tropics. The islands extend from 5° to 21o north lati-
tude, and Manila is in 14o 35;. The thermometer during Julv and August rarely goes below 79° or
above 850. The extreme ranges in a year are said to be 610 and 97°, and the annual mean 81°.
There are three well-«aarked seasons, temperate and dry Irom November to February, hot and dry
from March to May, and temperate and wet from June to October. The rainy season reaches its
maximum in July and August, when the rains are constant and very heavy. The total rainfall has
been as high as 114 inches in one year.
Yellow fever appears to be unknown. The diseases most fatal among the natives are cholera and
small- pox. both of which are brought from China. Low malarial fever is brought on by sleeping on the
ground or being chilled by remainmg without exercise in wet clothes; and diarrhoea Is produced by
drinking bad water or eating excessive quantities of fruit. Almost all of these diseases are prevent-
able by proper precautions even by troops in campaign. The sickness in our troops was very small,
much less than in the cold fogs at camp in San Francisco.
MINERAL WEALTH.
Very little is known concerning the mineral wealth of the islands. It is stated that there are de-
posits of coal, petroleum, iron, lead, sulphur, copper, and gold in the various islands, but little or
nothing has been done to develop them. A few concessions nave been granted for working mines,
but the output is not large. The gold is reported on Luzon, coal and petroleum on Cebu and Iloilo,
and sulphur on Leyte.
AGRICULTURE.
Although agriculture is the chief occupation of the Filipinos, yet only one-ninth of the sur-
face is under cultivation. The soil is very fertile, and even after deducting the mountainous areas it
is probable that the area of cultivation can be very largely extended and that the islands can support
population equal to that of Japan (42, 000, 000).
The chief products are rice, corn, hemp, sugar, tobacco, cocoanuts, and cacao. Coffee and cotton
were formerly produced in large quantities— the former for export and the latter for home consump-
tion ; but the coffee plant has been almost exterminated by insects and the home-made cotton cloths
have been driven out by the competition of those imported from England. The rice and corn are
principally produced in Luzon and Mindoro and are consumed in the islands. The rice crop is about
765,000 tons. It is insufficient for the demand, and 45,000 tons of rice were imported in 1894, the
greater portion from Saigon and the rest from Hong Kong and Singapore; also 8.669 tons (say 60.000
barrels) of flour, of which more than two-thirds came from China and less than one-third from the
United States. The cacao is raised in the southern islands, the best quality of it at Mindanao. The
sugar cane is raised in the Visayas. The crop yielded in 1894 about 235^000 tons of raw sugar, of
which one- tenth was consumed in the islands, and the balance, or 210,000 tons, valued at $11,000,-
000, was exported, the greater part to China, Great Britain, and A ustralia. The hemp is produced in
Southern Luzon, Mindoro, the Visayas, and Mindanao. It is nearly all exported in Dales. In 1894
the amount was 96,000 tons, valued at $12,000,000. Tobacco is raised in all the islands, but the best
quality and greatest amount in Luzon. A large amount is consumed in the islands, smoking being
universal among women as well as the men, but the best quality Is exported. The amount in 1894
was 7,000 tons of leaf tobacco, valued at $1,760,000. Cocoa;nuts are grrown in Southern Luzon and
are used in various ways.

EVENTS IN THE PHILIPPINES, 1900.
The Wobld Ai,manac for 1900 contained a chronological history of the War in the Philippines in
1899 from the attack of Aguinaldo on the American defences at Manila, February 4, which was de-
feated with a loss to the Tagals of 500 killed, 1,000 wounded, and 600 captured, to November 24, when
General Otis announced to the War Department that the whole of Central Luzon was in the hands of the
The J^hilippme Islands. 113
THE PHILIPPINE ISLANDS— Continutd.
United States authoritiei ; cnat the Filipino Congress and Secretary of State and Treasurer were cap-
tured, and that only bands of the enemy were in arms, while Agrainaldo was a fugitive in the mountains.
During 1900 the insurgent Filipinos maintained a desultory guerilla warfare outside of Manila, while
that port and others upon the coast settled down to the pursuits of peace.
In March, 1900, the President appointed a Civil Commission composed of William H. Taft, of Ohio,
President; Prof. Dean C. "Worcester, of Michigan; Luke E. Wright, of Tennessee; Henry O. Ide, of
Vermont, and Prof. Bernard Moses, of California, to "continue and perfect the work of organizing and
establishing civil government already commenced by the military authorities, subject in all respects to
any laws which Congress may hereafter enact."
In his letter of instructions to the Secretary of War April 1, 1900, President McKinley aaid of this
commission and its purposes :
"The Commissioners namad will meet and act as a board, and the Hon. William H. Taft is desig-
nated as President of the board. It is probable that the transfer of authority from military command-
ers to civil officers will be gradual and will occupy a considerable period. Its successful accomplishment
and the maintenance of peace and order in the mean time will require the most perfect co-operation
between the civil and military authorities in the island, and both should be directed during the transi-
tion period by the same executive department. The commission will therefore report to the Secretary
of War, and all their actions will be subject to your approval and control.
"You will instruct the commission to proceed to the city of Manila, where they will make their
principal ofi5ce, and to communicate with the Military Governor of the Philippine Islands, whom you
will at the same time direct to render to them every assistance within his power in the performance of
their duties. Without hampering them by too specific instructions, they shonld in general be enjoined,
after making themselves familiar with the conditions and needs of the country, to devote th3ir atten-
tion in the first instance to the establishment of municipal governments, in which the natives of the
islands, both in the cities and in the rural communities, shall be afforded the opportunity to manage
their own local affairs to the fullest extent of which they are capable, and subject to the least degree of
supervision and control which a careful study of their capacities and observation of the workings of
native control show to be consistent with the maintenance of law, order, and loyalty.
"The next subject in order of importance should be the organization of government in the larger
administrative divisions corresponding to counties, departments, or pi evinces, in which the common
interests of many or several municipalities falling within the same tribal lines, or the same natural
geographical limits, may best be subserved by a common administration. Whenever the commission
is of the opinion that the condition of affairs in the islands is such that the central administration may
safely be transferred from military to civil control, they will report that conclusion to you, with their
recommendations as to the form of central government to be established for the purpose of taking over
the control."
The Commissioners proceeded to the Philippines and reached Manila in April. Of th« results of
their labors the President spoke as follows, in his message to Congress December 3, 1900 :
"This commission, composed of eminent citizens representing the diverse geographical and political
interests of the country, and bringing to their task the ripe fruits of long and intelligent service in
educational, administrative, and judicial careers, made great progress from the outset. As early as
August 21, 1900, it submitted a preliminary report, which will be laid before the Congress, and from
which it appears that already the good effects of returning order are felt; that business interrupted by
hostilities is improving as peace extends ; that a larger area is under sugar cultivation than ever
before : that the customs revenues are greater than at any time during the Spanish rule ; that economy
and efficiency in the military administration have created a surplus fund of |6,000,000, available for
needed public improvements ; that a stringent civil service law is in preparation ; that railroad com-
munications are exp.inding, opening up rich districts, and that a comprehensive scheme of education is
being organized."
PROCLAMATION OF AMNESTY.
April 1, 1900, Major-General Otis, Military Governor of the Philippines, was relieved at his own
request, and returned to the United States, Major-General MacArthur was his successor and continued
in command during the remainder of the year, June 21, 1900, he issued the following proclamation of
amnesty to the Filipinos :
Manila, June 21, 1900.
By direction of the President of the United States the undersiened nnnounceB amnesty, with complete immnnity for the
fiast and absolute liberty of action for the future, to all persons who are now or at any time since Feb. 4, 1899, hare been in
Msurrection aeainst the United States in either a military or a civil capacity, and who shall, within a period of ninety days
from the date nereof, formally renounce all connection with such insurrection and subscribe to a declaration acknowledging
an i accepting the sovereignty and authority of the United States in and over the Philippine Islands.
The privilege herewitn published is extended to all concerned, without any reservation whatever excepting that persons
who have vioLited the laws of war during the period of active hostililies are not embraced within the scope of this amnesty.
ATI who desire to take advantage of the terms herewith set forth are requested to present themselves to the commanding
officers of the American troops at the most convenient station: who will receive them with due consideration according to
rank, make provision for their immediate wants, prepare the necessary records, »nd thereafter permit each individual to pro-
ceed to any part of the ar.-hipelago according to his own wishes, for which purpose the United Ststes will furnish suclj traus-
poitfttion SB may be available, either by railway, steamboat, or wagon.
Prominent persons who may desire to confer with the Military Governor or with the Board of American Commissioners
will be permitted to visit Manila, and » ill, as far as possible, be provided with transportation for that purpose.
In order to mitigitte as much as possible cousequenoes resultlDg from the various dipturbanres which since 1896 have
succeeded each other no rapidly, and to provide In some measure for destitute soldiers dnrittg the transitory period which
must inevitably succeed a general peacs, the military authorities of the United States will pay thirty pesos to each man who
presents a rifle in good condition. AKTHUK MACARTHUR,

ISLANDS PURCHASED BY THE UNITED STATES IN 1906.
By an oversight the islands of Cibitu and Oagayan were overlooked in the Treaty of Peaee between
the United States and Spain in 1898. They are situated at the southern end of the Philippine Archie
pelago, and have a population of 7,000. The omission was discovered in 1900, and to avoid the embarrass-
ment of having the islands fall into the possession of some other x>owerthan Spain, to, be used as a naval
station, the United States agreed by treaty to pay Spain $100,000 for them.

oCCtfl^ATION OF CHINESE TERRITORY BY EUROPEAN. POWERS IN 1898.
After China's war with Japan, which ended with the occupntion of the southern shores of Manchuria
by that power, thus giving it the control of the gulf of Pechili, Russia stepped in, ostensibly as the
friend of China, to save it from the rapacity of the conqiieror. an.d thus earned, a claim on China for
compensation. Russian diplomacy secured the concurrence of Germany and France in aiding it to force
Japan out of China and to accept as a settlement of its war claims a pecuniary compensation and the
sovereiKnty of the island of Formosa. ,■,...
A^ a reward for its services Russia obtained from C^jtuj, the cession of. Port Aithuiv oil the giilf of
Pechili, at the extremity of the Liaotu-ng Peninsula, and the adjacent harbor pf Talien-Wan. which, it is
understood, is to be the southern terminus of the great Siberian railway. \,. ^
The murder of two German missionaries by Chinese in the neighborhood of Kaio-Chou served as a
pretext for Germany to secure its foothold upon Chinese territory. As indemnity for the outrage China
leased to Germany, tor the term of ninety-nine years, the port of Kaio-Chou and surrounding country,
about 200 miles south of Port Arthur, with full jurisdictional powers and various concessions for building
railroads and other public works in the province of Shang Tung. ,, ^ ^
France followed by presenting the Chinese Government with 8 memora,naum,"suggesting the con-
cession of certain privileges lu portions of Chinese territory adjacent to the Frencli possession of Tonquin.
Finally, Great Britain obtained from China a lease of Wei-Hai-'V^'ei, situjj-tedpn the §outh shore of the
gulf of Pechili, oppfosite Port Arthur, a position commanding the entrijife tq tlie gulf, and therefore
the water approach to Peki,ng.
Mr. Balfour, the ministerial leader of the British House of Commons, iu , April, 1898, made a speech j
m the House predicting the speedy collapse of China and its partition amojig. the great powers.
Since then the British Government, throu,'rh its ministers in varjous public spei^clies, has proclaimed
the purpose of Great Britain to insist that all China shall be free to. the unrestriot^d trade of the world,
and to maintain that position by force of arms if necessary; and these speakers have asked the moral
support of the United States in this policy of the "open door." ., .
Both the Russian and German governments have given assurances that commerce shall not be re-
stricted in the portions of Chinese territory which have Qom^imder^their control, and over which they
profess that Chinese authority is nominally paramount. ' ,
The direction of Chinese public affairs, when the year 1899 opened, was in the hands of a party
headed by the Dowager Empress, which was supposed to be opposed to radical changes in favor of
reform.
OUTBREAK OF THE ANTI-FOREIGN MOVEMENT.
Toward the end of 1898 various reports were current to the effect that the Emperor of China iiad
been poisoned or otherwise made away with by the Dowager Empress. These reports were proved to
have been unfounded, although it has been stated on good authoiity that he was crnelly used, and even
imprisoned and half-starved.
Kwang-Su, formerly known as Tsai-Tien, is the ninth Emperor of China of the Manchu dynasty of
Tsing, which overthrew the native dynasty ot Ming in 1644. He was born m 1871, nnd at t'lflt time
nobody supposed that there was the slightest chance of his siicceedinsr to the tiirone. His predecessor,
Tung-Che, died in 1875, and the Empress Dov/ajrer and the Manchuriiin Priiicess held a meeting »nd
selected Tsai-Tien. son of Prince Chung, ns successor to the throne. Prince Chting was the seventh
brother of the Emperor Hien Fung. There exists in China no law of hereditary succession to the
throne, each Emperor being supposed to nommate his o%vn siiccessor froiA' among the members of the
family of a younger generation. Of course this means that t^e real, heads "of affairs are able to nomi-
nate whom they choose. '" ' ' "'.';•• ' '. -'
There is no doubt that Tsai-Tien was made Emperor bec.-'tise of his extreme youth, and the conse-
quent fact that there would be a long minority during which the Dowa? er Empress would be nominal
as well as actual ruler. Howjcver, he was chosen, and the name Kwang-Su, or "Glorious Successor."
was given to him. His education was conducted by the supposedly wisest men of the Empire, and wlien
he was fifteen years old he was married to a bride chosen by the Dowager Empress. -
Immediately after his marriage Kwang-Su forinally ascended the throne with much ceremony, but
he has been a cipher in the nffairs of the nation ever since, and on only very rare occasions has even
been allowed to receive the foreign ministers. ,-, . . :, ,^r'^ ?« ••.. •:• i. • ■, r ,
The Boxer movement was the result of the growth of an intense anti-foreign national sentiment
excited mainly by the occupation of Chinese territory by foreign nations and fear of further exactions,
supplemented by the ignorance and superstition of the lowest classes and hatred of the missionaries
from Europe and America who penetrated under treaty rights all parts of the Empire. The leader of
the movement was Prince Tuan, the sixth son of the Emperor's grandfather. He is a man about forty
years old, has devoted his life to athletics, and has always been a great favorite with the young men of
the nation with whom lie came in contact. .,o .: i-
Tuan has a son nine years old, who had been proclaimed Crown Prince or heir presumptive to the
throne. The young men rallying around Tuan's banner fur the purpose of avenging themselves on the
foreigners were first known as athletes or boxers. Their ranks rapidly grew. The recruits accepted
the name, and all who were m sympathy with the cause designated themselves Boxers. '
The anti- foreign rising was characterized by the massacre of missionaries at many interior joints
and a concerted attack on the foreign legations in Peking, in, which the Imperial troops eventually par-
ticipated. ■ .„j
ARMED INTERVENTION OF THE FOREIGN POWERS/ . i.
The Tsung-li-Yaraen, which is the Chinese equivalent to a responsible government ministry in
Enrope, being itself permeated by sentiments hostile to the foreigners, could or would not take effective
measures to protect the le^'ations and allow them to depart from the country in safety. For several
weeks the fate of the foreign ministers and their families ajid attaches, the legation guards, andthecon-
verted Chinese under their protection was in profound doubt, while reports of the most distressing
character of wholesale massacre.s and outrages^ perpetrated upQii the besieged, principally originating
at Shanghai, filled the world with horror. ' ' ' ' •
The foreign powers, alarmed at the situation, hastily Assteirtbledtheit available fleets m Chinese
waters and hurried troops to the ports nearest to the points of daiyget. An -attempt to land marines at

sentatives of the powers were about to present these demands to the Chinese Government,
AMERICAN POLICY,
President McKinley, in his annual message to Congress, Decembers, 1900, made the following state-
ment of the principles which animate the Government of the United States in dealing with the situ-
tion in China:
'• The policy of the Government of the United States is to seek a solution which may bring about
permsjient safety and peace to China, preserve Chinese territorial and administrative entity, protect all
rights guaranteea to friendly powers by treaty and international law. and safeguard for the world the
principle of equal and impartial trade with all parts of the Chinese Empire.
"J'aithful to those professions which, as it proved, reflected the views and purposes of the other
co-operating Governments, all our efforts have been directed toward ending the anomalous situation in
China by negotiations for a settlement at the earliest possible moment. As soon as the sacred duty of
relieving our legation and its defendants was accomplished, we withdrew from active hostilities, leaving
our legsttion under an adequate guard in Peking as a. channel of negotiations and settlement-^a course
adopted by others of the interested powers.

PRESIDENTS OF THE UNITED STATES— Con^mtwd..
NOTES TO THE TABLES OF THE PRESIDENTS. ON THE TWO PRECEDING PAGES.
* Monroe abandoned the profession of law when a young man, and was afterward, and until his elec-
tion, always holding public office, t Jackson called himself a South Carolinian, and his biographer,
Kendall, recorded his birthplace in Lancaster Co., S. 0.; but Parton has published documentary evidence
to show that Jackson was born in Union Oa, N. 0., less than a quarter mile from the South Carolina
line, t Or of departure from college.
§ Widows. Their maiden names are in parentheses. OShe was the divorced wife of Captain
Robards. (a) The Democratic party of to-day claims lineal descent from the first Republican party,
and President Jefferson as its founder. (6) Political parties were disorganized at the time of the elec-
tion of John Quincy Adams, He claimed to be a Republican, but his doctrines were decidedly Federal-
istic. The opposition to his Administration took the name of Democrats, and elected Jackson President.
(c) Randall, the biographer of Jefferson, declares that he was a believer in Christianity, although
not a sectarian, (d) While President Johnson was not a church-member, he was a Christian believer.
His wife was a Methodist.
Washington's first inauguration was in New York, and his second in Philadelphia. Adams was
inaugurated in Philadelphia, and Jefferson and the Presidents following elected by the people, in the
city of Washington. Arthur took the Presidential oath of office first in New York City. John Adams
and Jefferson died on the same day, the Fourth of July, 1826, and Monroe died on the Fourth of July five
years later. John Quincy Adams was a Representative and Andrew Johnson a Senator in Congress after
the expiration of their Presidential terms, and both died while holding those offices. Tyler was a
Representative in the Confederate'Congress from Virginia, and died in office.
Washington, Monroe, and Jackson were soldiers in the Revolutionary War; Jackson, W. H. Har-
rison, Tyler, Taylor, and Buchanan in the War of 1812-15; Lincoln in the Black Hawk War; Taylor,
Pierce, and Grant in the Mexican War, and Grant, Hayes, Garfield, Arthur, B. Harrison, and McKinley
in the Civil War. Adams and Jefferson were signers of the Declaration of Independence, and Washing-
ton and Madison of the Constitution.
Grant was christened Hiram Ulysses and Cleveland Stephen Grover. W. H. Harrison was the
oldest man elected to the Presidency, and Grant the youngest, Cleveland was the only President mar-
ried in the White House, and his second daughter the only President's child born therein. Grant's
daughter was the only child of a President married therein. Wives of Tyler and Benjamin Harrison
died in the White House.
THE PRESIDENTIAL SUCCESSION.
The Presidential succession is fixed by chapter 4 of the acts of the Forty-ninth Congress, first session.
In case of the removal, death, resignation, or inability of both the President and Vice-President, then
the Secretary of State shall act as President until the disability of the President or Vice-President is
removed or a President is elected If there be no Secretary of State, then the Secretary of the Treasury
will act; and the remainder of the order of succession is: Secretary of War, Attorney-General, Post-
master-General, Secretary of the Navy, and Secretary of the Interior (the office of Secretary of Agri-
culture was created after the passage of the act). The acting President must, upon taking office, con-
vene Congress, if not at the time in session, in extraordinary session, giving twenty days' notice. This
act applies only to such cabinet officers as shall have been appointed by tie advice and consent of the
Senate and are eligible imder the Constitution to the Presidency.

The one huiidredth anniversary of the day that Chief Justice John Marsnall took hi.s .seat for the
first time in the tsupreme Conrt of the United States will be celebrated at Washington, D. C. , on Feb-
ruary 4, 1901, under the direction of the Supreme Court, with the aid and support of the President
and Congress. The American Bar Association, which inaugurated the movement to accomplish this
recognition of the great Chief Justice by the people of the United States, has suggested that on the
centennialday all judicial bu.siness throughout the country cease and that State, citj',and country bar
as.sociation3 participate in proper exercises, and that similar ceremonies be held in all American col-
leges, law and public schools, "to the end that the youth of our country may be made more fully
acquainted with Marshall's noble life and distinguished services."
Atthe National Capitol, where the ceremonies will take place. Chief Justice Fuller will preside, and
Wayne Mac Veagh, of Pennsylvania, will deliver the oration commemorative of the life and services
of Marshall. The President of the United States and his Cabinet will be present. The celebration will
conclude with a banquet in the evening. The programme of the proceedings during the day and
evening have been prepared by a committee of fi.tv-oneof the American Bar Association, of which
the Hon. William Wirt Howe, of New Orleans, is Chairman. •' Marshall's fame" .said Judge story,
"will follow on to the most distant ages. Even if theConstitution of this country should perish, his
glorious)udgments will still remain to instruct mankind until liberty shall cease to be a blessing and
thescienceof jurisprudence shall vanish from the catalogue of human pursuits. "

The platform of the Union, besides calling for the government control of railroada, tolpgraphs, and
telephones, and the election of United States Senators by the people, makes the following demands:
We demand a National currency, safe, sound, and flexible; issued by the General Government only;
a full leeal tender for all debts and receivable for all dues, and an equitable and efficient means of dis-
tribution of this currency, directly to the peo^ile, at the minimum of expense and without the interven-
tion of banking corporations, and in sufficient volume to transact the business of the country on a cash
basis. (-7) We demand the free and unlimited coinage of silver and gold at the legal ratio of 16tol.
(h) We demand a craduated income tax. (r) That our National legislation shall be so framed in the
future as not to build up one industry at the expense of another, (d) We believe that the money of the
country should be kept as much as possible in the hands of the people, and hence we demand that all
National and Staff revenues shall be limited to the necessary expenses of the Government economically
and honestly administered, (e) We demand that postal savings banks be established by the Govern-
ment for the safe deposits of the savings of the people, and to facilitate exchange. (./) We are unalter-
ably opposed to the issue by the United States of interest-bearing bonds, and demand the payment of
all coin obligations of the United States, as provided by existing laws, in either gold or silver coin, at
the option of the Government and not at the option of the creditor.
We demand that no land shall be held by corporations for speculative purposes or by railroads in
excess of their needs as carriers, and all Unds now owned by aliens should be reclaimed by the Govern-
ment and held for acual settlers only. We demand free mail delivery in the rural districts We de-
mand that the inhabitants of all the territory coming to the United States as the result of the war
with Spain be as speedily as possible permitted to organize a free government of their own, based on
the consent of the governed.

National Party Platforms of 1900. 137
National i^artg i^latform^ of 1900*
PLATFORM OF THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY, ADOPTED AT KANSAS CITY, MO.,
JULY 5, 1900.
We, the representatives of the Democratic party of the United States, assembled in conventiou
on the anniversary of the adoption of tlie Declaration of Independence, do reaffirm our faith in that
immortal proclamation of the inalienable rights of man, aud our allegiance to the Constitution framed
in harmony therewith by the fathers of the Republic. We hold with the United States Supreme
Court that tbe Declaration of Independence iS the spirit of our C4overnment, of which the Constitution
is the form and letter.
Imperialism the Paramount Issue.— We declare again that all governments instituted
among men derive their just powers from the consent of the governed; that any government not
based upon the consent of the governed is a tyranny; and that to impose upon any people a govern-
ment offeree is to substitute the methods of imperialism for those of a republic.
We hold that the Constitution follows the flag, and denounce the doctrine that an E2:ecutiveor
Congress, deriving their existence and their powers from the Constitution, can exercise lawful au-
thority beyond it, for in violation of it we assert that lio nation can long endure hal f republic and half
empire, and v/e warn the American people that imperialism abroad will lead quickly and inevitably
to despotism at home.
Porto Rico Liaw Denounced.— Believing in these fundamental principles, we denounce the
Porto lUco law, enacted by a Republican Congress against the protest aud opposition of the Demo-
cratic minority, as a bold and open violation of the nation's organic law and a flagrant breach of the
National good faith.
It imposes upon the people of Porto Rico a government without their consent and taxation without
representation.
It dishonors the American people by repudiating a soleinn pledge made in their behalf by the
commanding general of our army, which the Porto Ricans welcomed to a peaceful and unresisted
occupation of their land.
It doomed to poverty and distress a people whose helplessness appeals with peculiar force to our
justice and maarnauimity. In this, the first act of its imperialistic programme, the Republican party
seel:3 to commit the United States to a colonial policy, inconsistent with republican institutions and
condemned by the Supreme Court in numerous decisions.
Evacuation of Cuba Demanded.— We demand the prompt and honest fulfilment of our
pledge to the Cuban people and the world that the United States has no disposition nor intention to
exercise sovereignty, jurisdiction, or control over the island of Cuba except lor its pacification. The
war ended neai'ly two years ago, profound peace reigns overall the island, and still the Administra-
tion keeps the government of the island from its people, while Pvepublican carpet-bag officials plunder
its revenue and exploit the colonial theory to the disgrace of the American people.
Philippine Policy Condemned.— We condemn and denounce the Philippine policy of the
present Administration. It has involved the Republic in unnecessary war, sacrificed the lives of
many of our noblest sons, and placed the United States, previously known and applauded throughout
the world as the champion of freedom, in the false and un-American position of crushing with mili-
tary force the efforts of our former allies to achieve liberty and self-government.
The Filipinos cannot be citizens without endangering our civilization; they cannot be subjects
without imperilling our form of government, and as we are not willing to surrender our civilization or
to convert the Republic into an empire, we lavor an immediate declaration of the nation's purpose to
five to the Filipinos first a stable form of government; second, independence; and third, protection
rom outside interference, such as has been given for nearly a century to the republics of Central and
South America.
The greedy commercialism which dictated the Philippine policy of the Republican Administration
attempts to justify it with the plea that it will pay, but even this sordid and unworthy plea fails when
brought to the test of facts.
The war of criminal aggression against the Filipinos, entailing an annual expense of many mill-
ions, has already cost more than any possible profit that could accrue from tlie entire Philippine trade
for years to come. Furthermore, when trade is extended at the expense of liberty the price is always
too high.
Qualifled Expansion.— We are not opposed to territorial expansion when it takes in desirable
territory which can be erected into States in the Union, and whose people are willing and fit to become
American citizens. We favor expansion by every peaceful and legitimate means. But we are unal-
terably opposed to the seizing or purchasing of distant^islauds, to be governed outside the Consti-
tution, an 1 whose people can never become citizens.
We are in favor of extending the Republic' s influence among the nations, but believe that influence
should be extended not by force and violence, but through the persuasive power of a high and honor-
able example.
The importance of other questions now pending before the American people is in nowise dimin-
ished, and the Democratic party takes no backward step from its position on them, but the burning
issue of imperialism growing out of the Spanish war involves the very existence of the Republic and
the destruction of our free institutions. We regard it as the par-amount issue of the cavipaign.
The Monroe Doctrine.— The declaration in the Republican platform adopted at the Phila-
delphia Convention, held in June, 1900, that the Republican party "^steadfastly adheres to the policy
announced in the Monroe doctrine," is manifestly insincere and deceptive. This profession is con-
tradicted by the avowed policy of that party in opposition to the spirit or the Monroe doctrine to acquire
and hold sovereignty over large areas of territory and large numbers of people in the Eastern Hemi-
sphere.
We insist on the strict maintenance of the Monroe doctrine, and in all its integrity, both in letter
and inspirit, as necessary to prevent the extension of European authority on tliis continent and as
essential to our supremacy in American affairs. At the same time we declare that no American people
shall ever be held by lorce in unwilling subjection to European authority.
3Iilitarism Opposed.- We oppose militarism. It means conquest abroad and intimidation and
oppression at home. It means the strong arm which has ever been fatal to free institutions. It is
what millions of our citizens have fled from in Europe. It will impose upon our peace-loving people a
138 National Party Platforms of 1900.
large standing army and unnecessary burden of taxation and a constant menace to their liberties. A
small standiu^x army and a well-disciplined State militia are amply sufficient in time of peace.
This Republic has no place for a vast military sei vice and conscription. When the nation is in
danger, the volunteer soldier is his country's best defender.
The National Guard of the United States should ever be cherished in the patriotic hearts of a free
people. Such organ izalions are ever an element of strength and safetj'. For the first time in our
history and coeval with the Philippine conquest has there been a wholesale departure from our time-
honored and approved s.vsteni of volunteer organization. We denounce it as un-American, un-demo-
cratic, and un- republican, and as a subversion of ancient and fixed principles of a free people.
Private Monopolies Attacked.— Private monopolies are indefensible and intolerable. They
desti'oy competition, control the price of all material and of the finished product, thus robbing both
producer and consumer. They lessen theemploj'ment of labor and arbitrarily fix the terras and con-
ditions thereof and deprive individual energy and small capital of their opportunity for betterment.
Theyare the most elTicieut means yet devised for appropriating the fruits of industry to the benefit
of the few at the expense of the man.v, and imless their insatiate greed is cliecked all wealth will be
aggregated in a few hands and the Kepublic destroj-ed.
The dishonest paltering with the trust evil by the Republican party in State and National platforms
is conclusive proof of tbe truth of the charge that trusts are the legitimate pro iuct of Republican poli-
cies, that they are fostered by Republican laws, and that they are protected by the Republican
Administration in return for campaign subscriptions and political support.
Warfare Against Trusts.— We pledge the Democratic party to an unceasing warfare in nation,
State, and city against private monopoly in every form. K.xisting laws against trusts must be enfox'ced
and more stringent ones must be enacted, providing forpviblicity as to affairs of corporations engaged
in interstate commerce and requiring all 'corporations to show, before doing business outside of the
State of their origin, that they have ho water in their stock, and that they have not attempted and are
not attempting to monopolize anybranch of business or the production oif any articles of merchandise,
and the whole constitutional power of iCongress over interstate commerce, the mails, and all modes
of intei-state communication shall be 'exercised by th<' enactment of comprehensive laws upon the
subject of trusts. Tarifflaws should be amended by putting the products of trusts upon the free list to
prevent monopoly n uder the plea of protection.
TLe failure of thepresentRepublican Administration, with an absolute control over all the branches
of the National Government, to enactiany legislation designed to prevent or even curtail the absorbing
power of trusts"and illegal combinations or tx) enforce the anti- trust laws already on the statute books
proves the insincerit.y of the high-sounding phrases of the l?epublican platform.
Corporations should be protected in all theirrights.and their legitimate interestsshould be respected,
but any attempt by corporations to interfere with the public affairs of the people or to control the sov-
ereignty which creates them should be forbidden under such penalties as will make such attemi)tH
impossible.
Dinffley Tarifl" Lia>v Condemned.— We condemn the Dingley Tariff law as a trust-breeding
measure, skilfully devised to give the few favors which they do not deserve and to place upon themanj'
burdens which they should not bear.
We favor such an enlargement of the scope of the Interstate Commerce law as will enable the
commission to protect individuals and communities from discriminations and the public from unjust
and unfairtransportation rates.
Cbicag'O Platform of 1896 Reaffirmed.- We reaffirm and indorse the principles of the
National Democratic platform adopted at Chicago in 1896 and we reiterate the demand of that plat-
form for an American financial s.ystem made by the American people for themselves which shall
restore and maintain a bimetallic price level, and as part of such system the immediate restoration of
the free and unlimited coinage of silver and gold at the present legal ratio of 16 to 1, without waiting
for the con.sent of ony other nation.
Currency Bill Denounced.— We denounce the Currency bill enacted at the last session of
Congress as a step forward in the Republican policy which aims to discredit the sovereign right of the
National Government to is.sue all monej', whether coin or paper, and to bestow upon National banks
the power to issue and control the volume of paper money lor their own benefit.
A permanent National bank currency, secured by Government bonds, must have a permanent
debt to rest upon, and if the bank currency is to increase with population and business the debt must
also increase. 'Ihe Republican currency scheme is therefore a scheme for fastening upon the tax-
payers a perpetual and growing debt.
We are opposed to this private corporation paper circulated as money, but without legal tender
qualities, and demand the retirement ofthe National bank notes as fast as this Government paper or
silver certificates can be substituted for them.
Election of Senators by the People.— We favor an amendment to the Federal legislation
providingfor the election of United States Senators by direct vote of the people, and we favor direct
legislation wherever practicable.
Government by Injunction.- We are opposed to government by injunction; we denounce
the black list and favor arbitration .as a means of settling disputes between corporations and their
employes.
For a Department of Tiabor.— In the interest of American labor and the uplifting of the
workingman as the corner-stone of the prosperity of our country, we recommend that ("ongre.ss create
a department of labor in charge of a Secretary, with a seat in the Cabinet, believing that the elevatfon
of the American laborer will bring with it increased production and increased prosperity to our coun-
try at home and our coinmerce abroad.
Ijiberal Pensions Favoreil.— We are proud of the courage and fidelity of the American
soldiers and sailors in all our wars; we favor liberal pensions to them and their dependents, and we
reiterate the jiosition taken in the Chicago platform in ls96 that the fact of enlistment and service
shall be deemed conclusive evidence figaiust disea.se and disability before enlistment.
Tbe Nicaragua Canal.— We favor the immediate construction, ownership, and control of the
Nicaragua Canal h.v the United states, iind we denounce the insincerity of the plank in the Republican
platform for an Isthmian canal in face of the failure of the Republican majority to pass the bill pend-
mg in Congress.
Hay-Pauncefote Treaty.— We condemn the Hay-Pauncefote treaty as a surrender of Ameri-
can rights and interests, not to be tolei;ated by the American people.
pledges
the peoi
ritories, and we fas'or borne rule and a Territorial form of government for Alaska and Porto Rico
Irrigation of Arid Ijaiids.— We favor an intelligent system of improving the arid lands of the
West, storing the waters for purposes of irrigation, and the holding of such lands for actual settlers.
Chinese Exclusion Ija^v.— We favor the continuance and strict enforcement of the Chinese
Exclusion law and its application to the same classes of all Asiatic races.
No Alliance ^vith Other Powers.— Jefferson said: "Peace, commerce, and honest friendship
with all nations; entangling alliances with none. " We approve this wholesome doctrine, and ear-
nestly protest against the Republican depai'ture which has involved us in so-called world politics,
including the diplomacy of Europe and the intrigue and land-grabbing of Asia, and we especially
condemn the ill-concealed Republican alliance with England, which must mean discrimination
against other friendly nations, and which has already stifled the nation's voice while liberty is being
strangled in Africa.
Sympathy for the Boers.— Believing in the principles of self-government and rejecting, as
did our forefathers, the claim of monarchy, we view with indignation the purpose of England to
overwhelm with force the South African Republics. Speaking as we do fori the entire American
nation, except its Republican office-holders, and for all free nien everywhere, we extend our sym-
pathies to the heroic burghers in their unequal struggle to maintain their liberty and independence.
Repeal of War Taxes.— We denounce the lavish appropriations of recent Republican Con-
gresses which have kept taxes high, and which threaten trade perpetuation of the oppressive war
levies. We oppose the accumulation of a surplus to be squandered in such bare- faced frauds upon the
taxpayers as the Shipping Subsidy bill, which, under the false pretence of prospering Americaniship-
building, would put' unearned millions into the pockets of favorite contributors to the Republican
campaign fund. We favor the reduction and speedy repeal of the war taxes, and a return to the time-
honored Democratic policy of strict economy of Government expenditures.
Onr Institutions in Peril.— Believing that our most cherished institutions are in great peril,
that the very existence of our constitutional Republic is at stake, and that the decision now to be
rendered will determine whether or not our children are to enjoy those blessed privileges of free
government which have made the United States great, prosperous, and honored, we earnestlv ask
for the foregoing declaration of principles the hearty support of the liberty-loving American people,
regardless of previous party aflBliations.

The Republicans of the United States, through their chosen representatives, met in National
Convention, looking back upon an unsurpassed record of achievement and looking forward to a great-
field of duty and opportunity, and appealing to the judgment of their counti-ymen, make these
declarations:
The expectation in which the American people, turning from the Democratic party, intrusted
power four years ago to a Republican Chief Magistrate and a Republican Congress, has been met and
satisfied. When the people then assembled at the polls, after a term of Democratic legislation and
administration, business was dead, industry paralyzed, and the National credit disastrously impaired.
The country's capital was hidden away and its labor distressed and uuemplo.ved.
The Democi-ats had no other plan with which to improve the ruinous conditions which they had
themselves produced than to coin silver at the ratio of 16tol. The Republican party, denouncing
this plan as sure to produce conditions even worse than those from which relief was sought, promised
to restore prosperity by means of two legislative measures— a protective tariff and a law making
gold the standard of value.
Republican Promises Redeemed.— The people, by great majorities, issued to the Republican
party a commission to enact these laws. This commission has been executed, and the Republican
promise is redeemed. Prosperity more general and more abundant than we have ever known has
followed these enactments. There is no longer controversy as to the value of any government obliga-
tions. Every American dollar is a gold dollar, or its assured equivalent, and American creditstands
higher than that of any nation. Capital is fully employed, and labor everywhere is profitably occu-
pied. No single fact can more strikingly tell the story of what Republican government means to the
country than this— that while during the whole period of 107 years from 1790 to 1897 there was an
excess of exports over imports of only $383,028,497, there has been in the short three years of the
present Republican Administration an excess of exports over imports in the enormous sum of
$1,483,537,094.
The War >vith Spain.— And while the Americau people, .sustained by this Republican legisla-
tion, have been achieving these splendid triirnphs in their business and commerce, they have con-
ducted and in victory concluded a war for liberty and human rights. No thought of National
aggrandizement tarnished the high purpose with which American standards were unfurled.
It was a war unsought and patiently resisted, butwiien it came the American Government was
ready. Its fleets were cleared for action, its armies were in the field, and the quick and signal
triumph of its forces on land and sea bore equal tribute to the courage of American soldiers and
sailors and to the skill and foresight of Republican statesmanship. To ten millions of the human
race there was given "a new birth of freedom," and to the American people a new and noble
responsibility.
The Republican Administration Indorsed.— We indorse the Administration of William
McKinley. Its acts have been establishes in wisdom and in patriotism, and at home and abroad it
hasdistiiictly elevated and extended the influence of the American nation. Walking untried paths
and facing unforeseen responsibilities, President McKinlej^ has been in ever.v situation the true Ameri-
can patriot and the upright statesinan, clear in vision, strong in judginent, firm in action, always
inspiring and deserving the confidence of his couatrymen.
In asking the American people to indorse this Republican record and to renew their commission
to the Republican party, we remind them of the fact that the menace to their prosperity has always
resided in Democratic principles, and no less in the general incapacity of the Democratic party to
conduct public affairs.
140
National Party Platforms of 1900,
The prime essential of business prosperity is public coiitidence in the good sense of the Govern-
ment, and in its ability to deal intelligently with each new problem of administration and legislation.
That confidence the Democratic party has never earned. It is hopelessly inadequate, and the
country's prosperity when Democratic success at the polls Is announced halts and ceases in mere
anticipation of Democratic blunders and failures.
The Crold Standard.— "We renew our allegiance to the principle of the gold standard, and
declare our confidence in the wisdom of the legislation of the Fifty-sixth Congress by which the
parity of all our money and the stability of our currency upon a gold basis has been secured.
We recognize that interest rates are potent factors in production and business activity, and for the
purpose of further equalizing and of further lowering the rates of interest, we favor such monetary
legislation as will enable the varying needs of the seasons and of all sections to be promptly naet in
order that trade may be evenly sustained, labor steadily employed, and commerce enlarged. The
volume of money in circulation was never so great per capita as it is to-day.
Free Silver Coinage Opposed.— We declare our steadfast opposition to the free and unlimited
coinage of silver. No measure to that end could be considered which was without the support of the
leading commercial countries of the world. However firmly Republican legislation mav seem to
have secured the country against the. peril of base and discredited currency, the election of a Demo-
cratic President could not fail to impair the country's credit and to bring once more into question the
intention of the American people to maintain upon the gold standard the parity of their money circu-
lation. The Democratic party must be convinced that the American people will never tolerate the
Chicago platform.
Trusts.- We recognize the necessity and propriety of the honest cooperation of capital to meet
new business conditions, and especially to extend our rapidly increasing foreign trade, but we con-
demn all conspiracies and combinations intended to restrict business, to create monopolies, to limit
production, or to control prices, and favor such legislation as will elfectively restrain and prevent all
such abu.ses, protect and promote competition, and secure the rights of producers, laborers, and all
who are engaged in industry and commerce
The Policy of Protection.— We renew our faith in the policy of protection to American labor.
In that policy our industries have been established, diversilied, and maintained, liy protecting the
home market competition has been stimulated and production cheapened.
Opportunity to the inventive genius of our people has been secured and wages in every depart-
ment of labor maintained at high rates, higher now than ever before, and always distinguishing our
working people in their better conditions of life from those of any competing country.
Enjoying the blessings of the American common school, secure in the right of self-government,
and protected in the occupancy of their own markets, their constantly increasing knowledge and
.skill have enabled them finally to enter the markets of the world.
Reciprocity.- We favor the associated policy of reciprocity so directed as to open our markets
on favorable terms lor what we do not ourselves produce in return for free foreign markets.
Iinmiin*B.tion.— In the further interest of American workmen we favor a more effective restric-
tion of the immigration of cheap labor from foreign lands, the extension of opportunities of educa-
tion for working children, the raising of the age limit for child labor, the protection of free labor as
against contract convict labor, and an eff'ective system of labor insurance.
Aid to American Shipping.— Our present dependence upon foreign shipping for nine- tenths
of our foreign carrying is a great loss to the industry of this country. It is also a serious danger
to our trade, for its sudden withdrawal in the event of European war would seriously cripple our
expanding foreign commerce. The National defence and naval eflficieucy of this country, moreover,
supply a compelling reason for legislation which will enable us to recover our former place among
the trade-carrying fleets of the world.
Ijiberal Pensions.— The nation owes a debt of profound gratitude to the soldiers and sailors
who have fought its battles, and it is the Government's duty to provide for the survivors and for the
widows and orphansof those who have fallen in the country's wars. The pension laws, founded in
this just sentiment, should be liberal and should be liberally administered, and preference should be
given wherever practicable with respect to employment in the public service to soldiers and sailors
and to t heir widows and orphans.
The Civil Service.— We commend the policy of the Republican partj' in maintaining the effi-
ciency of the civil service. The Administration ha.s acted wiselj' in its eflfort to secure for public ser-
vice in Cuba, Porto Rico, Hawaii, and the Philippine Islands only those whose fitness has been deter-
mined by trainingand experience. We believe that employment In the public service in these terri-
tories should be confined as far as practicable to their inhabitants.
The Franchise in the South.— It was the plain purpose of the Fifteenth Amendment to the
Constitution to prevent discrimination on accountof race or color in regulating the elective franchise.
Devices of State Governments, whether by statutory or constitutional enactment, to avoid the pur-
pose of this amendment are revolutionary and should be condemned.
Improved Roads and Ilighways.-Public movements looking to a permanent improvement
of the roads and highways of the country meet with our cordial approval, and we recommend this
subject to the earnest consideration of the people and of the Legislatures of the several States.
Rural Free Delivery of Postal Matter.— We favor the extension of the rural free-delivery
service wherever its extension may be justified.
Arid Lands.- In further pursuance of the constant policy of the Republican party to provide
free homes on the public domain, we recommend adequate National legislation to reclaim the arid
lands of the United States, reserving control of the distribution of water for irrigation to the respec-
tive States and Territories.
Statehood for the Territories.-We favor home rule for and the early admission to State-
hood of the Territories of New Mexico. Arizona, and Oklahoma.
Reduction of War Taxes.-The Dingley act, amended to provide sufficient revenue for the
conduct of the war, has so well performed its work that it has been possible to reduce the war debt in
the sum of .$40,000,000. So ample are the Government's revenues and .so great is the public confi-
dence in the integritv of its obligations that its newly funded 2 per cent bonds sell at a premium.
The country is now justified in expecting, and it will be the policy of the Republican party to bring
about, a reduction of the war taxes.
National Party Platforms of 1900. 141
An Isthmian Canal AdTocated.— We favor the construction, ownership, control, and pro-
tection of an Isthmian canal by the fcrovernment of the United Slates.
New Markets to Be Sought.— New markets are necessary for the increasing surplus of our
farm products. Every etfort should be made to open and obtam new markets especially in the
Orient, and the Admmistration is warmly to be commended for its successful effort to commit all
trading and colonizing nations to the policy of the open door in China.
A Department of Commerce Proposed.— In the interest of our expanding commerce we
recommend that Congress create a Department of Commerce and Industries, in the charge of a Secre-
tary, with a seat in the Cabinet.
The Consular System.- The United States Consular system should be reorganized under the
supervision of this new department upon such a basis of appointment and tenure as will render it still
more serviceable to the nation' s increasing trade.
Protection for Americans Abroad.— The American Government must protect the person
and property of every citizen wherever they are wrongfully violated or placed in peril.
Women Army Nurses Ciommended.- We congratulate the women of America upon their
splendid record of public service In the Volunteer Aid Association aud as nurses in camp and hospital
during the recent campaigns of our armies in the Eastern and Western Indies, and we appreciate
their faithful cooperation in all works of education and industry.
The Samoan Acquisition.— President McKinley has conducted the foreign affairs of the
United States with distinguished credit to the American people. In releasing us from the vexatious
conditions of a European alliance for the government of Samoa, his course is especially to be com-
mended. By securing to our undivided control the most imporlaut island of the'Samoan group and
the best harbor in the Southern Pacific, every American interest has been safeguarded.
Hawaiian Annexation.— We approve the annexation of the Hawaiian Islands to the United
States.
The South African War.— We commend the part taken by our Government in the PeaceCon-
ference at The Hague We assert our steadfast adherence to the policy announced in the Monroe
doctrine. The provisions of The Hague convention were wisely regarded when President McKinley
tendered his friendly offices in the interest of peace between Great Britain and the South African Re-
publics.
While the American Government must continue the policy prescribed by Washington, affirmed
by every succeeding President, aud imposed upon us by The Hague treaty, of uou-interventinnin p:u-
ropean controversies, the American people earnestly hope that a way may soon be found, honorably
alike to both contending parties to terminate the strife between them.
Policy Toward the Philippines.-Inacceptingby the treaty of Paris tlie just resnonsibility
of our victories in the Spanish war, the President and the Senate won the nndoubtediapprbval of the
American people. No other course was possible than to destroy Spain's sovereignty throughout the
Western Indies and in the Philippine Islands.
That course created our responsibility before the world, aud with the unorganized population whom
our Intervention had freed from Spain to provide for the maintenance of law and order and for the
establishment of good government, and for the performance of international obligations.
Our authority could not be less than our responsibility, and wherever .sovereign rights were ex-
tended i t became the high duty of the Government to maintain its authority, to put down armed in-
surrection, and to confer the blessings of liberty and civilization upon all the rescued peoples.
The largest measure of self-government consistent with their welfare and our duties shall be se-
cured to them by law.
Cuban Independence.— To Cuba independence and self-government were assured in the same
voice by which war was declared, and to the letter this pledge shall be performed.
The Republican party, upon its history and upon this declaration of its principles and policies,
confidently invokes tne considerate and approving judgment of the American people.
PLATFORM OF THE PEOPLE'S PARTY ( FUSIONISTS), ADOPTED AT SIOUX
FALLS, S. D., MAY 10, 1900.
The People's party of the United States, in convention assembled, congratulating its supporters
on the wide extension of its principles in all directions, does hereby reatfirni its adherence to tlie
fundamental principles proclaimed in its two prior platforms and calls upon all who desire to avert
the subversion of free institutions by corporate and imperialistic power to unite with it in bringing the
Governmentback to the ideals of Wa.shington, Jefferson, Jackson, and Lincoln.
It extends to its allies in the struggle for financial and economic freedom, a.ssurances o"" its loyalty
to the principles which animate the allied forces and the promise of honest and hearty cooperation in
every effort for their success.
To the people of the United States we offer the following platform as the expression of our unal-
terable convictions: _
Currency Bill Condemned.— Resolved, That we denounce the act of March 14, 1900, as the
culmination of a long series of conspiracies to deprive the people of their constitutional rights over the
money of the nation land relegate to a gigantic money trust the control of the purse aud hence of
the people.
We denounce this act, first, for making all money obligations, domestic and foreign, payable in
gold coin or its equivalent, thus eno'^mously increasing the burdens of the debtors and enriching the
creditors. ^«
Second— For refunding "coin bonds" not to mature for years into long-time gold bonds so as to
make their payment improbable and our debt perpetual.
Third— For taking from the Treasury over $50,000,000 in a time of war and presenting it, as a
premium, to bondholders to accomplish the refunding of bonds not due.
Fourth— For doubling the capital of bankers by returning to them the face value of their bonds in
current money notes so that they may draw one interest from the Government and another from the
Fifth— For allowing banks to expand and contract their circulation at pleasure, thus controlling
pricesof all products. . ... ^ * ,. •• ^
Sixth— For authorizing the Secretary of the Treasury to issue new gold bonds to an unlimited
amount whenever he deems it necessary to replenish the gold hoard, thus enabling usurers to secure
142 National Party Platforms of 1900.
more bonds aud more bauk currency by drawing gold from the Treasury, thereby creating an "end-
less chain ' ' for perpetually adding to a perpetual debt.
Seventh— For striking down the greenback in order to force the people to borrow $346,000,000
more from the banks at an annual cost of over $20, 000, 000.
While barrintr out the money of the Constitution this law opens the jirinting mints of the Treasury
to the free coinage of bank paper money, to enrich the few and impoverish the many.
Free Coinajre of Silver at IG to 1 Demanded.— We pledge anew the People's party never
to cease the agitation until this great financial conspiracy Is blotted from the statute books, the Lin-
coln greenback restored, the bonds all paid, and all corporation money forever retired.
We affirm the demand for tlie reopening of the mints of the United States for the free and un-
limited coinage of silver aud gold at the present legal ratio of 16 to 1, the immediate increiise in the
volume of silver coins and certificates thus created to be substituted, dollar for dollar, for the bank-
notes issued by private corporations under special privilege granted by law of March 14, 1900, and
prior National banking laws, the remaiuiiig portion of the banknotes to be replaced with full legal-
tender Government paper money, and its volume so controlled as to maintain at all times a stable
money market and a stable price level.
Income Tax.— We demand a graduated income and inheritance tax, to the end that aggregated
wealth shall bear its just proportion of taxation.
Postal Savings Banks.— We demand that postal savings banks be established by the Govern-
ment for the safe deposit of the savings of the people and to facilitate exchange.
Homesteads for the People.— With Thomas Jefferson we declare the land, including all
natural sources of wealth, the inalienable heritage of the people. Government should so act as to se-
cure homes for the people and prevent land monopoly. The original homestead policy should be en-
forced, and future settlers upon the public domain should be entitled to a free homestead, while all
who have paid an acreage price to the Government under existing laws should have their homestead
rights restored.
Government O^vnersliip of Railroads.— Transportation being a means of exchange and a
public necessitj', the Government should own and operate the railroads in the interests of the people
and on a non-partisan basis, to the end that all may be accorded the same treatment in transporta-
tion, aud tluit the extortion, tyranny, and political power now exercised by the great railroad cor-
porations, which result in the impairment, if not the destruction, of the political rights and personal
liberties of tlie citizen, may be destroyed. Such ownership is to be accomplished in a manner con-
sistent with sound public policy.
Trusts.- Trusts, the overshadowing evil of the age. are the result and culmi-nation of the nri vate
ownership aud control of the three great instruments of commerce— money, transportation, and the
means or transmission of information— which instruments of commerce are public functions, and
which our forefathers declared in the Constitution should be controlled by the people through their
Congress for the public welfare. The one remedy for the trusts is that the ownership and control be
assumed and exercised by the people.
We further demand that all tariffs on goods controlled by a trust shall be abolished.
To cope with the trust evil, the people must act directly without the intervention of representa-
tives who may be controlled or influenced. We therefore demand direct legislation, giving the peo-
ple the lawmaking and veto power under the initiative and referendum. A majority of the people
can never be corruptly influenced.
Independence for the Filipinos.— Applauding the valor of our army and navy in the Spanish
war, wo. denounce the conduct; of the Administration in changing a war for humanity into a war of
conquest. The action of the Administration in the Philippines is in conflict with all the precedents of
our National life; at war with the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, and the plain pre-
cepts of humanity. Murder and arson have been our response to the appeals of the people who asked
only to establish a free government in their own land. We demand a stoppage of this war of exter-
mination by the assurance to the Philippines of independence and the protection under a stable gov-
ernment of their own creation.
Porto Rico.— The Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, and the American flag are one
and inseparable. The island of Porto Rico is a part of the tei-ritory of the United States, and by levy-
ing special and extraordinary customs duties on the commerce of that island the Administration has
violated the Constitution, abandoned the fundamental princinles of American liberty, and has striven
to give the lie to the contention of our forefathers that there should be no taxation without repre-
sentation.
3Iilitari8m.— Out of the imperialism which would force an undesired domination on the people
of the Philippines springs the un-American cry for a large standing army. Nothing in the character
or purposes of our people justifies us in ignoring the plain lesson ol history and putting our liberties in
jeopardy by assuming the burden of militarism, which is crushing the people ot the Old World. We
denounce the Administration for its sinister efforts to substitute a standing army for the citizen sol-
diery, which is the best safeguard of the Republic.
Sympathy tor the Boers.— We extend to the brave Boers of South Africa our sj'mpathy and
moral support in their patriotic struggle lor the right of self-government, and we are unalterably op-
posed to any alliance, open or covert, between the United States aud any other nation that will tend
to the destruction of liberty.
Idaho Labor Troubles.— And a further manifestation of imperialism is to be found in the
mining districts of Idaho. In the Cceur d' Alene soldiers have been used to overawe minors striving
for a greater measure of industrial independence. And we denounce the State Government of Idaho
and the Federal Government for employing the military arm of the Government to abridge the civil
rightsof the people, and to enforce an infamous permit system whichdeniesto laborers theirinherent
liberty and compels them to forswear their manhood and their right before being permitted to seek
employment.
Japanese Contract Labor. —The importation of Japanese and other laborers under contract
to serve monopolistic corporations is Ji notorious and flagrant violation of the immigration laws. We
demand that the Federal Government shall take cognizance of this menacing evil and repress it under
existing laws. We further pledge ourselves to strive for the enactment of more stringent laws for
the exclusion of Mongolian and :i\Ialayan immigration.
Municipal Ownership of Public Utilities.— We indorse municipal ownership of public
utilities, anddeclarethat the advantages which have accrued to the public under that system would
be multiplied a hundredfold by its extension to natural interstate monopolies.
National Party Platforms of 1900. 143
Injuiictioim in Labor Troubles.— We denounce the practice of issuing injunctions in the
cases of dispute between employers and employes, making criminal acts by organizations which are
not. criminal when performed by individuals, and demand legislation to restrain the evil.
Popular Vote for Senators.— We demand that United States Senators and all other officials
as far as practicable be elected by direct vote of the people, believing that the elective franchise and
untrammelled ballot are essential to a government for and by the people.
Dlsfrancbisement of the Southern Negro.— The People's party condemns the wholesale
system of disfranchisement by coercion and intimidation, adopted in some States, as un-republican
and un-deraocratic. And we declare it to be the duty of the several State Legislatures to take such
action as will secure a full, free, and fair ballot, and an honest count.
Home Rule in the Territories-— We favor home rule in the Territories and the District of
Columbia, and the early admission of the Territories as States.
Pension Office Arraigned.— We denounce the expensive red-tape system, political favoritism,
cruel and unnecessary delay and criminal evasion of the statutes in the management of the Pension
Office, and demand the simple and honest execution of the law, and the fulfilment by the nation of
its pledges of service pension to all its honorably discharged veterans.
PLATFORM OF THE PEOPLE'S PARTY (MIDDLE OF THE ROAD), ADOPTED AT
CINCINNATI, O., MAY 10, 1900.
The People's party of the United States, assembled in National Convention this 10th day of May,
1900, affirming our unshaken belief in the cardinal tenets of the People's party as set forth in the
Omaha jJlatform, and pledging ourselves anew to continued advocacy of those grand principles of
human liberty, imtil right shall triumph over might and love over greed, do adopt and proclaim this
declaration of faith.
The Initiative and Referendum.— We demand the initiative and referendum, and the im-
perative mandate for such changes of existing fundamental and statute law as will enable the people
m their sovereign capacity to propose and compel the enactment of such laws as they desire, to reject
such as they deem injurious to their interests, and to recall imfaithful public servants.
Public Ownership of Railroads and Telegraphs.— We demand the public ownership and
operation of those means of communication, transportation, and production which the people may
elect, such as railroads, telegraph and telephone lines, coal mines, etc.
Public Lands for Actual Settlers.— The land, including all natural sources of wealth, is a
heritageof the people and should not be monopolized for speculative purposes, and alien ownership
of laud should be prohibited. All lands now held by railroads and other corporations in excess of
their actual needs, and all lands now owned by aliens, should be reclaimed by the Government and
held for actual settlers onlj%
Paper I>Ioney Demanded.— A scientific and absolute paper money, based upon the entire
wealth and population of the nation, not redeemable in any specific commodity, but made a full legal
tender for all debts, and receivable for all taxes and public dues, and issued by the Government only
without the intervention of banks, and insufficient quantity to meet the demands of commerce, is
the best currency that can be devised, but until such a financial system is secured, which we shall
press for adoption, we favor the free and unlimited coinage of both silver and gold at the legal ratio of
16 to 1.
Taxation.— We demand the levy and collection of a graduated tax on incomes and inheritances,
and a constitutional amendment to secure the same if necessary.
Direct Vote of the People.— We demand the election of President, Vice-President, Federal
Judges, and United States Senators by direct vote of the people.
Trusts.— We are opposed to trusts, and declare the contention between the old parties on the
monopoly question is a sham battle, and that no solution of this mighty problem is possible without
the adoption of the principles of public ownership of public utilities.
PLATFORM OF THE PROHIBITION PARTY, ADOPTED AT CHICAGO, ILL.,
JUNE 27, 1900.
The National Prohibition party, in convention represented at Chicago, June 27 and 28, 1900,
acknowledged Almighty God as the supreme source of all just government. Realizing thet this Re-
public w^as founded upon Christian principles, and can endure only as it embodies ju.stice and right-
eousness, and asserting that all authority should seek the best good of all the governed, to this end
wisely prohibiting what is wrong and permittiug only what is right, hereby records and proclaims:
Prohibition the Greatest Issue.- First— Wq accept and assert the definition given by Edward
Burke, that a party is "'a body of men joined together for the purpose of protecting by their joint
endeavor the National interest upon some particular principle upon which they are all agreed. ' '
We declare that there is no principle now advocated, by any other party, which could be made a
fact in government with such beneficent moral and material results as the principle of prohibition
applied to the beverage liquor traffic; that the National interest could be promoted in no other way
sosurely and widely as by its adoption and assertion through a National policy and a cooperation
therein'by every State, forbidding the manufacture, sale, exportation, importation, and transporta-
tion of intoxicating liquors for beverage purposes; that w-e stand for this as the only principle pro-
posed by any partvanvwhere for the settlement of a question greater and graver than any other
beforethe American people, and involving more profoundly than any other their moral future and
financial welfare; and that all the patriotic citizenship of this country agreed upon this principle,
however much disagreement there maybeas to minorconsiderations and issues, should stand together
at the ballot-box from this time forward until prohibition is the established. policy of the United
States, with a party in power to enforce it and to insure its moral and material benefits.
We insist that such a party agreed upon this principleand policy, having sober leadership, with-
out any obligation for success to the saloon vote and to those demoralizing political combinations, can
successfully cope with all other and lesser problems of government, in legislative halls and in the
executive chair, and that it is useless for any party to make declarations in its platform as to any
questions concerning which there maybe serious differences of opinion in its own membership and as
to which, because of such differences, the party could legislate only on a basis of mutual concessions
when coming into power.
144
National Party Platforms of 1900.
We submit that the Democratic and Republican parties are alike insincere in their assumed hos-
tility to trusts and monopolies. They dare not and do not attack the most dangerous of them ail, the
liquor power. 80 Ion? as the saloon debauches the citizen and breeds the purchasable voter money
will continue to buy its way to power. Break down this traffic, elevate maul)ood, and a sober citizen-
ship will find a way to coutrol dangrerons combLuatious of capital
We purpose, as a first step in the financial problem of the nation, to save more than a billion of
dollars every year, now annually expended to support the liquor traffic and to demoralize our people.
When that is accomplished, conditions will have so improved that with a clearer atmosphere the
country can address itself to the questions as to the kind and quantity of currency needed.
The Liiqcor Traffic in Control. —Second— We reatfirm as true indisputably the declaration of
William Windom, when Secretary of the Treasury in the Cabinet of President Arthur, that "con-
sidered sociallj', financially, politically, or morally, the licensed liquor traffic is or ought to be the
overwhelming issue in American politics, and that the destruction of this iniquity stands next on the
calendar of the world's progress." We hold that the existence of our party presents this issue
squarely to the American people, and lays upon them the responsibility of choice between liquor
parties, dominated by distillers and brewers, with their policy of saloon perpetuation breeding waste,
wickedness, woe, pauperism, taxation, corruption, and crime, and our one party of patriotic and moral
principle, with a policy which defends it from domination by corrupt bosses, and which insures it for-
ever against the blighting coutrol of saloon politics.
We face with sorrow, shame, and fear the awful fact that this liquor traffic hasagripon our Gov-
ernment, municipal, State, and National, through the revenue system and a saloon sovereignty, which
no other party dare to dispute; a grip which dominates the party now in power, from caucus to Con-
gress, from policeman to President, from the runishop to the White House; a grip which compels the
Executive to consent that law shall be nullified in behalf of the brewer, that the canteen shall curse
our army and spread intemperance across the seas, and that our flag shall wave as the symbol of
partnership, at home and abroad, between this Government and the men who defy and defile it for
iheir unholy gain.
President McKlnley Denounced.— Third— We charge upon President McKinley, who was
elected to his high office by appeal to Christian sentiment and patriotism almost unprecedented and
by a combination of moral influences never before seen in this country-, that by his conspicuous
example as a wine drinker at public banquets and as a wine-serving host in the White House, he has
do '6 more to encourage the liquor business, to demoralize the temperance habits of j^oung men, and
to bring Christian practices ana requirements into disrepute than any other President this Republic
has had. We further charge upon President McKinley responsibility for the armj' canteen, with all
its dire breed ot dsease. Immorality, sin, and death in this couutrj', in. Cuba, in Porto Rico, and the
Philippines; and we insi.st that by his attitude concerning the canteen, and his apparent contempt for
the vast number of petitions and i^etitioners protesting against it, he has outraged and insulted the
moral sentiment or this country in such a manner and to such a degree as call for its righteous
upri ing and his indignant and effective rebuke.
We challenge denial of the fact that our Chief Executive, as commander-in-chief of the military
forces of the United States, at any time prior to or since March 2, 1899, coald have closed every
army saloon, called acauteen, by executive order, as President Hayes in effect did before him, and
should have closed them, for the same reasons which actuated President Hayes; we assert thai the
act of Congress, passed Jilarch 2,1899, forbidding the sale of liquor "in any post, exchange, or can-
teen, " by any ' oflficeror private soldier," or by "any other person, on any premises used for mili-
tary pnrposes by the United States," was and is as explicit an act of prohibition as the English lan-
guage can frame.
We declare our solemn belief that the Attorney-General of the United States, in his interpreta-
tion of that law, and the Secretary of War, in his acceptance of that interpretation and his refusal to
enforce tlie law, were and are guilty of treasonable nullification thereof, and that President McKinlej',
through his assent to and indorsement of such interpretation and refusal on the part of officials
appointed by and responsible to him, shares responsibility in their guilt; and we record our convic-
tion that a new and serious peril confronts our country, in t;ie fact that its President, at the behest of
the beer power, dare and does abrogate a law of Congress, through subordinates removable at will by
him and whose acts become his, and thus virtually confesses that laws are to be administered, or to
be nullified, in the interest of a law-defying business, by an Administration under mortgage to such
business for support.
Liquor in the Philippines.— Fourth— We deplore the fact that an Administration of this
Republic, claiming the right and power to carry our flag across the seas and to conquer and annex new
territory, should admit its lack of power to prohibit the American saloon on subjugated soil, or
should openly confess itself subject to liquor sovereignty under that flag. We are humiliated, exas-
perated, and grieved by the evidence, painfully abundant, that this Administration's policy of expan-
sion is bearing so rapidly its first Iruits of drunkenness, insanity, and crime under the hothouse sun
of the tropics; and that when the president of the first Philippine commission said, "It was unfor-
tunate that we introduced and established the saloon there, to corrupt the natives and to exhibit the
vices of our race," we charge the inhumanity and unchristlanity of thisact on the Administration of
Willb m McKinley and upon the party which elected and would perpetuate the .same.
Fifth— We declare that the only policy which the (Jovernmentof the United States can of right
uphold as to the liquor traffic under the National Constitution upon an v territory under the military
or civil control otthat Government is the policy of prohibition; that "to establish justice, insure
domestic tranquillity, provide for the common defence, promote the general welfare, and insure the
ble&oings of liberty to ourselves and our posteritj', " as the Constitution provides, the liquor traffic
must neither be sanctioned nor tolerated, and that the revenue policy, which makes our Government
a partner with distillers and brewers and barkeepers, is a disgrace to our civilization, an outrage upon
humanity, and a crime again.st God,
Tho Prohibitory Law in Alaska.— We condemn the present Administration at Washington
because it has repealed the prohibitory law in Alaska, and has given over the partly civilized tribes
there to bethe prey of the American grogshop, and because it has entered upon a license policy in
our uew possessions by incorporating the same in the revenue act of Congress in the code of laws for
the government of the Hawaiian Islands.
Exportation of ].<iquor to the Dependencies.— We call general attention to the fearful fact
that exportation of liquors from the United Stales to the Philippine Islands increased from $337 in
1898 to $ '67, 198 in the first ten months of the fiscnl year endea .Tune 30, 1900; and that Avhile our
exportations of liquor to Cuba never reached $30,000 a j'ear previous to American occupation of
th3t i«land, our exports of such liquors to Cuba during the fiscal vear of 1899 reached the siun of
$629,655.
J
National Party Platforms of 1900. 145
Appeal to Cliristian Voters.— Sixth— Oue great religrious body (the Baptist) having truly
declared of the liquor traffic "that it has uo defensible right to exist, that it cau never be reformed,
that it stands condemned by its unrighteous fruits as a thing unchristian, un-American, and perilous
utterly to every interest in life;" another great religious body (the Methodist) having as truly
asserted and reiterated that "no political party has the riglit to expect, nor should it receive, the
votes of Christian men so long as it stands committed to the license system or refuses to put itself on
record in an attitude of open hostility to the saloons;" other great religious bodies having made
similar deliverances, in language plain and unequivocal, as to the liquor traffic and the duty of Chris-
tian citizenship in opposition thereto, and the fact being plain and undeniable that the Democratic
party stands for license, the saloon, and the canteen, while the Kepublican party, in policy and
administration, stands for the canteen, the saloon, and revenue therefrom, we declare ourseives
justified in expecting that Christian voters everywhere shall cease their complicity with the liquor
curse by refusing to uphold a liquor party, and shall unite themselves with the only party which
upholds the prohibition policy, and which for nearly thirty years has been the faithful defender of the
church, the State, the home, and the school against the saloon, its expanders and perpetuators, their
actual and persistent foes.
The Paramount Question.— We insist that no differences of belief, as to any other question or
concern of government, should stand in the way of such a union of moral and Christian citizenship as
we hereby invite for the speedy settlement of this paramount moral, industrial, financial, and political
issue which our party presents; and we refrain from declaring ourselves upon all minor matters as to
which differences of opinion may exist that hereby we may offer to the American people a platform
so broad that all cau stand upon it who desire to see sober citizenship actually sovereign over the
allied hosts of evil, sin, and crime in agovernment of the people, by the people, an'l for the people.
We declare that there are but two real parties to-day concerning the liquor traffic— Perpetuation-
ists and Prohibitionists— and that patriotism, Christianity, and every interest of genuine republi-
canism and of pure democracy, besides the loyal demands of our common humanity, require the
speedy union, in one solid phalaVix at the ballot-box, of all who oppose the liquor traffic's perpetua-
tion, and who covet endurance for this Republic.
PLATFORM OF THE UNITED CHRISTIAN PARTY, ADOPTED AT ROCK ISLAND,
ILL., MAY 2, 1000.
We, the United Christian party, iu National Convention assembled in the city of Rock Island,
111., May laud 2, 1900, acknowledging Almighty God as the source of all power and authority, the
Lord Jesus Christ as the sovereign ruler of nations, and the Bible as the standard by which to decide
moral issues in our political life, dT make the following declaration:
Webelieve the time to have arrived when the eternal principles of Justice, mercv, and love as ex-
emplified in the life and teachings of Jesus Christ should be em.bodiecf iu the Constitution of our na-
tion, and applied in concrete form to every function of our Government.
We maintahi that this statement is in harmony with the fundamental principles of our National
common law; our Christian usages and customs;the declaration of the Supreme Court of the United
States that " This is a Christian nation, " and the accepted principle iu judicial decisions that no law
should contravene the Divine law.
Desecration of the Sabbath.— We deprecate certain immoral laws which have grown out of
thefailureof our nation to recognize these principles, notably such as require the desecration of the
Christian Sabbath, authorize unscriptural marriage and divorce, and- license the manufacture and
sale of intoxicating liquors as a beverage.
Immoral La^vs.— The execution of these immoral laws above mentioned we hold to be neither
loyalty to our country nor honoring to God; therefore it shall be our purpose to administer the Gov-
ernment, BO far as it shall be intrusted to us by the suffrages <if the people, in accordance with the
principles herein set forth, and, until amended, our oath of office shall be to the Constitution and
laws as herein explained, and to no other, and we will look to Ilim who hasall power in Heaveuand
in earth to vindicate our purpose in seeking His glory and the welfare of our beloved land.
Initiative and Referendum.— As an expression of consent or allegiance on the part of the
governed, iu harmony with the above statements, we declare for the adoption and use of the system
of legislation known as the " initiative and referendum, ' ' together with ' ' proportionate representa-
tion ' ' and the ' ' imperative mandate. ' '
Equality of Alen and Women.— We hold that all men and women are created free and with
equal rights, and declare for the establishment of such political, industrial, and social conditions as
shall guarantee to every person civic equality, the full fruits of his or her honest toil, and oppor-
tunity for the righteous enjoyment of the same; and we especially condemn mob violence and out-
rages against any individual or class of individuals in our country.
Opposition to War.— We declare agaiust war, and for the arbitration of all National and in-
ternational disputes.
The Liquor Traffic.— We hold that the legalized liquor traffic is the crowning infamy of civi-
lization, and we declare for the immediate abolition of the manufacture and sale of intoxicating
liquors as a beverage.
Cigarettes Denounced.— We are gratified to note the widespread agitation of the cigarette
question, and declare ourselves in favor of the enactment of laws prohibiting the sale of cigarettes or
tobacco in any form to minors.
The Bible in the Schools.— We declare for the daily reading of the Bible in the public schools
and institutions of learning under control of the State .
Government O^vnership.- We declare for the Government ownership of public utilities.
Direct Vote of the People.— We declare for the election of the President and Vice-President
and United States Senators by the direct vote of the people.
We declare forsuch amendment or the United States Constitution as shall be necessary to give the
principles herein set forth an undeniable legal basis in the fundamental law of our land.
We invite into the United Christian party every honest man and woman who believes in Christ
and His golden rule and standard of r ghteousuess. We say especially to the sons of toil : Jesus, the
carpenter's son, is your true friend. In His name and through the practice of His principles you
may obtain your rights long withheld and long outraged. You have the votes necessary to enthrone
Him. His love and principles, politically applied, will lift you up and give you true civic liberty
forever. .. ,,, i: V-,,
146 National Party Platforms of 1900.
PLATFORM OF THE SILVER REPUBLICAN PARTY, ADOPTED AT KANSAS CITY,
MO., JULY 6, 1900.
"We, the Silver Republican party, ia National Convention assembled, declare these as our prin-
ciples and invite the cooperation of all who agree therewith:
We recognize that the principles set forth in the Declaration of Independence are fundamental
and everlastingly true in their applications of governments among men. We believe the patriotic
words of Washington's farewell to be the words of soberness and wisdom, inspired by the spirit of
right and truth. We treasure the words of JefTersou as priceless gems of American statesmanship.
We hold in sacred remembrance the broad philanthropy and patriotism of J^incoln, who was the
great interpreter of American history and the great apostle of human rights and of industrial free-
dom, and we declare, as was declared by the convention that nominated the great emancipator, that
the maintenance of the principles promulgated in the Declaration of Independence and embodied in
the Federal Constitution, "that all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator
with certain inalienable rights; that among these are life, libertj', and the pursuit of happiness; that
to secure these rights governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the
consent of the governed, ' ' is essential to the preservation of our republican institutions.
Adherence to Bimetallism.— We declare our adherence to the principle of bimetallism as the
right basis of a monetary sj'Stem imder our National Constitution, a principle that found place repeat-
edly in Republican platforms from the demonetization of silver m 1873 to the 8t. Louis Republican
Convention of 1896.
Since that convention a Republican Congress and a Republican President, at the dictation of the
tursts and money power, have passed and approved a currency bill which in itself is a repudiation of
the doctrine of bimetallism advocated theretofore bj' the President and every great leader of his
party.
The Currency Lia^v,— This currency law destroys the full money power of the silver dollar,
provides for the payment of all government obligations and the redemption of all forms of paper
money in gold alone ; retires the time-honored and patriotic greenbacks, constituting one-sixth of the
money in circulation, and surrenders to banking corporations a sovereign function of issuing all,f)aper
monej'. thus enabling these corporations to control the prices of labor and property by increasmg or
diminishing the volume of money in circulation, thus giving the banks power to create panics and
bring disaster upon business enterprises.
The provisions of this currency law making the bonded debt of the Republic payable in gold alone
change the contract between the Government and the bondholders to the advantage of the latter, and
is in direct opposition to the declaration of the Matthews resolution passed by Congress in 1878, for
which resolution the present Republican President, then a member of Congress, voted, as did also all
leading Republicans, both in the House and Senate.
We declare it to be our intention to lend our efforts to the repeal of this currency law. which not
only repudiates the ancient and time-honored principles of the American people before the Constitu-
tion was adopted, but is violative of the principles of the Constitution itself, and we shall not cease
our efforts until there has been established in its place a monetary system based upon the free and
unlimited coinage of silver and gold into money at the present legal ratio of 16 to 1 by the independent
action of the United States, under which system all paper money; shall be issued by the Government
and all such money coined or issued shall be a full legal tender in payment of all debts, public and
private, without exception.
Income Tax Favored.— We are in favor of a graduated tax upon incomes, and if necessary to
accomplish this we favor an amendment to the Constitution.
Election of {Senators by the People.— We believe that United States Senators ought to be
elected by direct vote of the people, and we favor such amendment of the Constitution and such legis-
lation as may be necessary to that end.
Civil Service Reforms.— We favor the maintenance and the extension wherever practicable of
themeritsysteiuin the public service, appointments to be made according to fitness, competitively
ascertained', and public servants to be retained in office only so long as shall be compatible with the
efficiency of the service.
Trusts and 3IonopoIies.— Combinations, trusts, and monopolies contrived and arranged for
the purpose of controlling the prices and quantity of articles supplied to the public are unjust, unlaw-
ful, and oppressive.
Not only do these unlawful conspiracies fix the prices of commodities in many cases, but they
invadeevery branch of the State and National Government with their polluting influence and control
the i'.ctions of their employes and dependents in private life until their influence actually imperils
society and the liberty of the citizen.
We declare against them. We demand the most stringent laws for their destruction and the most
severe punishment of their promoters and maintainers and the energetic enforcement of such laws by
the courts.
The 3Ionroe Doctrine.— We believe the Monroe doctrine to be sound in principle and a wise
National policy, and we demand a firm adherence thereto. We condemn acts inconsistent with it
and that tend to make us parties to the interests and to involve us in the controversies of European
nations and to recognition by pending treat}' of the right of England to be considered in the construc-
tion of an interoceanic canal. We declare that such canal, when constructed, ought to be controlled
by the United States in the interests of American nations.
Alien O^vuership.- We observe wlthanxiety and regard with disapproval the increasing own-
ership of American lands by aliens and their growing control over our international transportation,
natural re-ources, and puMic utilities. We demand legislation to protect our public domain, our
natural resources, our franchises, and our internal commerce and to keep them free and maintain
their independence of all foreign monopolies, institutions, and influences, and we declare our f pposi-
tion to the leasing of the public lands of the United States whereby corporations and syndicates will
be able to secure control thereof and thus monopolize the public domain, the heritage of the people.
Pensions for Soldiers.— We are in favor of the principles of direct legislation. In view of the
great sacrifice made and patriotic services rendered we are in favor of liberal pensions to deserving
soldiers, their widows, orphans, and other dependents. We believe that enlistment and service
should be accepted as conclusive proof that the soldier was free from disease and disability at the
time of his enlistment. We condemn the present administration of the pension laws.
National l^'arty Platforms of 1900. 147
Sympathy -ivith the Boers«— We tender to the patriotic people of the Soutli African Republics
our sympathy and express our admiration for them in their heroic attempts to preserve their political
freedom and maintain their national independence. We declare the destruction of these republics and
the subjugation of their people to be a crime against civilization.
We believe this sympathy should have been voiced by the American Congress, as was done in the
case of the French, "the Greeks, the Hungai-ians, the Poles, the Armenians, and the Cubans, and as
the traditions of this country would have dictated. We declare the Porto Bican Tariff law to be not
only a serious but a dangerous departure from the principles of our form of government. We believe
in a republican form of government and are opposed to monarchy and to the whole theory of im-
perialistic control.
Abanduu the Philippines.— We believe in self-government— a government by the conse-nt of
the governed— and are unalterably opposed to a government based upon force. It is clear and certain
that the inhabitants of the Philippine Archipelago cannot be made citizens ol the United States with-
out endangering our civilization. We are, therefore, in favor of applying to the Philippine Archi-
pelago the principle we are solemnly and publicly pledged to observe in the case of Cuba.
Repeal of War Taxes.— There no longer being any necessity for collecting war taxes, we de-
maud the repeal of the war taxes levied to carry on the war with Spain.
Statehood for the. Territories. —We favor the imnaediate admission into the union of States
the Territories of Arizona, New Mexico, and Oklahoma.
Cuba.— We demand that our nation's promises to Cuba shall be fulfilled in every particular.
Arid Western Lands.— We believe the National Government should lend every aid, encour-
agement, and assistance toward the reclamation of the arid lands of the United States, and to that end
we are in favor of a comprehensive survey thereof and an immediate ascertainment of the water sup-
ply available for such reclamation, and we believe it to be ttie dutyof the (General Government to pro-
vide for the construction of storage resei"voirs and irrigation works so that the water supply of the arid
region may be utilized to the greatest possible extent in the interests of the people, while preserving
all rights of tlie State.
Unreasonable Railway Charges.— Transportation is a public necessity and the means and
methods of it are matters of public concern. Railway companies exercise a jjower over industries,
business, and commerce which they ought not to do, and should be made to serve the public interests
without making unreasonable charges or unjust discriminations.
Ownership of Public Utilities.— We observe with satisfaction the growing sentiment among
the people in favor of tlie public ownership and operation of ptiblic utilities.
Expansion of Commerce.— We are in favor of expanding our commerce in the interests of
American labor and for the benefit of all our people by every honest and peaceful means. Our creed
and our history justify the nations of the earth in expecting that wherever the American flag is un-
furled in authoritj' liuman liberty and political liberty will be found. We protest against the adop-
tion of any policy that will change in the thought of the world the meaning of our flag.
Asiatics Must Be Excluded.— We are opposed to the importation of Asiatic laborers in com-
petition with American labor, and favor a more rigid enforcement of the laws relating thereto.
The Silver Republican party of the United States, in the foregoing principles, seeks to pex-petuate
the spirit and to adhere to the teachings of Abraham Lincoln.
PLATFORM OF THE SOCIALIST LABOR PARTY, ADOPTED AT NEW YORK
CITY, JUNE 2-8, 1900.
The Socialist Labor party of the United States, in convention assembled, reasserts the inalien-
able risrht of all men to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
With tlie founders of the American Republic we liold that the purpose of government is to secure
every citizen in the enjoj''ment of this right; but in tlie light of our social conditions we hold, further-
more, that no such right can be exercised under a system of economic inequalitj-, essentially destruc-
tive of life, of liberty, and of happiness.
With the founders of this Republic we hold that the true theory of politics is that the machiiier.v of
government must be owned and controlled by the whole people ; but in the light of our industriarde-
velopment we hold, furthermore, that the true tlieory of economics is that the machinery of produc-
tion must likewise belong to the people in common.
To the obvious fact that our despotic system of economics is the direct opposite of our democratic
system of politics can plainly be traced the existence of a privileged class, the corruption of govern-
ment by that class, the alienation of public propert.v, public franchises, and public functions to that
class, and the abject dependence of the mightiest of nations upon tliat class.
Again, through the perversion of democracy to the^ends of plutocrac.v, labor is robbed of the
wealth which it alone produces, is denied the means of self-employment, and, by compulsory idle-
ness in wage slavery, is even deprived of the necessaries of life.
Human power and natural forces are thus wasted, that the plutocracy may rule.
fguorance and misery, with all their concomitant evils, are perpetuated, that the people maj' be
kept in bondage.
Science and invention are diverted from their humane purpose to the enslavementiof women and
children.
Against such a system the Socialist Labor party once more enters its protest. Once more it re-
iterates its ftindamental declaration that private property in the natural sources of production and in
the instruments of labor is the obvious cause of all economic servitude and polUica Jdepeudence.
The time is fast coming when, in the natural course of social evolution, this system, through the
destructive action of its failures and crisis on the one hand, and the constructive tendencies of its
trusts and other capitalistic combinations on the other hand, shall have worked out its own downjall.
We, therefore, call upon the wage workers of the United States, and upon all other honest citi-
zens, to organize under the banner of the Socialist Labor party into a class-conscious body, aware of
its rights and determined to conquer them by taking possession of the public powers; so t? at, held
together by an indomitable spirit of solidarity under the most trying conditions of the present class
struggle, we may put a summary end to that barbarous strugsrle by the abolition of classes, the restora-
tion of the land and of all the means of production, transportation, and distribution to the people as a
collective body, and the substitution of the Cooperative Commonwealth for the present state of
planless production, industrial vvy,r, and social disorder— a commonwealth iu which every worker shall
have the free exercise and full benefit of liis faculties, multiplied by all the modern factors of civ-
ilization.
148 National Party Platforms of 1900.
PLATFORM OF THE SOCIAL DEMOCRATIC PARTY, ADOPTED AT INDIAN-
APOLIS, IND., MARCH 7, 1900.
The Social Democratic party of America declares that life, liberty, and happiness depend upon
equal political and economic rights.
In our economic development an industrial revolution has talcen place, the individual tool of
former years having become the social tool of the present. The individual tool was owned by the
worker, who employed himself and was master of his product. The social tool, the machine, is owned
by the capitalist, and the worker is dependent upon him for employment. The capitalist thus
becomes the master of the worker, and is able to appropriate to himself a large share of the product of
his labor.
Capitalism, the private ownership of the means of production, is responsible for the insecurity of
subsistence, the poverty, misery, and degradation of tne ever-growing majority of our people; but
the same economic forces which have produced and now intensify the capitalist system will necessi-
tate the adoption of Socialism, the collective ownership of the means of production for the common
good and welfare.
The present system of social production and private ownership is rapidly converting society into
two antagonistic classes— i.e. , th6 capitalist class and the propertyless class,- The middle class, once
the most powerful of this great nation, is disappearing in the mill of competition. The issue is now
between the two classes first named. Our political liberty is now of little value to the masses unless
used to acquire economic liberty.
Independent political action and the trade-union movement are the chief emancipating factors of
the working class, the one representing its political, the other its economic wing, and both must
cooperate to abolish the capitalist system.
Therefore, the Social Democratic party of America declares its object to be:
First— The organization of the working class into a political party to conquer the public powers
now controlled by capitalists.
Second— The abolition of wage-slavery by the establishment of a National system of cooperative
industry, based npon the social or common ownership of the means of production and distribution,
to be administered by society in the common interest of all its members, and the complete emancipa-
tion of the socially useful classes from the domination of capitalism.
The working class and all those in sympathy with their historic mission to realize n higher civiliza-
tion sliould sever connection with all capitalist and reform parties and unite with the Social Demo-
cratic party of America.
The control of political power by the Social Democratic party will be tantamount to the abolition
of allcla-ssrule.
The solidaritj' of labor connecting the millions of class-conscious fellow- workers throughout the
civilized world will lead to international Socialism, the brotherhood of man.
As steps in that direction, we make the following demands:
First— Revision of our Federal Constitution, in order to remove the obstacles to complete control of
government by the people irrespective of sex.
Second— The public ownership of all industries controlled by monopolies, trusts, and combines.
Third— The public ownership of all railroads, telegraphs, and telephones ; all means of transporta-
tion and communication; all water- works, gas and electric plants, and other public utilities.
Fourth— The public ownership of all gold, silver, copper, lead, iron, coal, and other mines, and
all oil and gas wells.
Fifth— The reduction of the hours of labor in proportion to the increasing facilities of production.
Sixth— The inauguration of a system of public works and improvements for the employment of the
unemployed, the public credit to be utilized for that purpose.
Seventh— Useful inventions to be free, the inventor to be remunerated by the public.
Eighth— Labor legislation to be National instead of local, and international when possible.
Ninth— National insurance of working people against accidents, lack of employment, and want in
old age.
Tenth— Equal civil and political rights for men and women, and the abolition of all laws discrimi-
nating against women.
Eleventh— The adoption of the initiative and referendum, proportional representation, and the
right of recall of representatives by the voters.
Twelfth— Abolition of war and the introduction of international arbitration.
PLATFORM OF THE NATIONAL PARTY (THIRD TICKET), ADOPTED AT NEW
YORK CITY, SEPTEMBER 5, 1900.
[This party was organized at New York City Septembers, 1900, and nominated Donelson CalTery
for President, and Arcnibald M. Howe for Vice-President, both of whom withdrew.]
We, citizens of the United States of America, assembled for the purpose of defending the wise
and conservative principles which underlie our government, thus declare our aims and purposes :
We find our country threatened with alternative perils. On the one hand is a public opinion mis-
led by organized forces of commercialism which have perverted a war intended bv the people to be a
war of humanity into a war for conquest. On the other hand is a public opinion swayed by demagogic
appeals to factional and class passions, the most fatal of di.seases ton republic. We believe that either
of these influences, if unchecked, would ultimately compass the downfall gf our country, but we also
believe that neither represents the sober convictions of onr countrymen.
Convinced that the extension of the United States for the purpose of holding foreign people as
colonial dependencies is an innovation dangerous to our liberties and repugnant to the principles upon
which our Government is founded, we pledge onr earnest efforts through all constitutional means:
First— To procure the renunciation of all imperial or colonial pretensions with regard to foreign
countries claimed to have been acquired through or in consequence of naval or military operations of
the last two years.
Second— We further pledge our efforts to secure a single gold standard and a sound banking
system.
Third— To secure a public service based on merit only.
Fourth— To secure the abolition of all corrupting special privileges, whether under the guise of
subsidies, bounties, undeserved pensions, or trust-breeding tariffs.

PLATFORM OF THE ANTI-IMPERIALIST CONVENTION, ADOPTED AT INDIAN-
APOLIS, IND., AUGUST 16, 1900.
This Liberty Congress of anti-imperialists recognizes a great National crisis which menaces the
Republic, upon whose future depends in such large measure the hope of freedom throughout the world.
For the first time in our country's history the President has undertaken to subjugate a foreign people
and to rule them by despotic power. He has thrown the protection of the flag over slavery and
polygamy in the Sulu Islands. He has arrogated to himself tne power to impose upon the inhabitants
of the Philippines government without their consent and taxation without representation. He is
waging war upon them for asserting the very principles for the maintenance of which our forefathers
pledged their lives, their fortunes, and their sacred honor. He claims for himself and Congress
authority to govern the Territories of the United States without constitutional restraint.
We believe in the Declaration of Independence. Its truths, not less self-evident to-day than when
first announced by our fathers, are of universal application, and cannot be abandoned while govern-
ment by the people endures.
We believe in the Constitution of the United States. It gives the President and Congress certain
limited powers, and secures to every man within the jurisdiction of our Government certain essential
rights. We deny that either the President or Congress can govern any person anywhere outside the
Constitution.
We are absolutely opposed to the policy of President McKinley which proposes to govern millions
of men without their consent, which ni Porto Rico establishes taxation without representation and
government by the arbitary will of a Legislature unfettered by constitutional restraint, and in the
Philippines prosecutes a war of conquest, and demands unconditional surrender from a people who
are of right free and independent. The struggle of men for freedom has ever been a struggle for con-
stitutional liberty. There is no liberty if the citizen has no right which the Legislature may not in-
vade, if he may be taxed by the Legislature in which he is not represented, or if he is not protected by
fundamental law against the arbitrary action of executive power. The policy of the President offers
the inhabitants of Porto Rico, Hawaii, and the Philippines no hope of mdependence, no prospect of
American citizenship, no constitutional protection, no representation in the Congress which taxes
them. This is the government of men by arbitrary power without their consent ; this is imperialism.
There is no room under the free flag of America for subjects. The President and Congress, who
derive all their powers from the Constitution, can govern no man without regard to its limitations.
We believe the greatest safeguard of liberty is a free press, and we demand that the censorship in
the Philippines, which keepsfrom the American people the knowledge of what isdone in their name,
he abolished. We are entitled to know the truth, and we insist that the powers which the President
holds in trust for us shall be not used to suppress :t.
Because we thus believe we oppose the re-election of Mr. McKinley. The supreme purpose of the
people in this momentous campaign should be to stamp with their final disapproval his attempt to
grasp imperial power. A self-governing people can have no more imperative duty than to drive from
public life a Chief Magistrate who, whether in weakness or of wicked parpose, hasused his tempo-
rary authority to subvert the character of their Government and to destroy their National ideals.
We, therefore, in the belief that it is essential at this crisis for the American people again to de-
clare their faith in the universal application of the Declaration of Independence and to reassert their
will that their servants shall not have or exercise any powers whatever other than those conferred by
the C;onstitution. earnestly make the following recommendations to cUr countrymen;
First— That, without regard to their views on minor nuestions of domestic policy, they withhold
their votes froin Mr. McKinley, in order to stamp with their disapproval what he has done.
Second— That they vote for those candidates for Congress in their respective districts who will op-
pose the policy of imperialism.
Third— While we welcome any other method of opposing the re-election of Mr McKinley, we ad-
vise direct support of Mr. Bryan as the most effective means of crushing imperialism.
We are convinced of Mr. Bryan's sincerity and of his earnest purpose to secure to the Filipinos
their independence. His position and the declarations contained in the platform of his party on the
vital issue of the campaign meet our unqualified approval.
We recommend that the Executive Committees of the American Anti-Imperialist League and
its allied leagues continue.and extend their organizations, preserving the independence of the move-
ment, and that they lake "the most active possible part in the pending political campaign.
Until now the policy which has turned the Filipinos from warm friends to bitter enemies, which
has slaughtered thousands of them and laid waste their country, has been the policy of the President.
After the next election it becomes the policy of every man who votes to re-elect him, and who thus
becomes with him responsible for every drop of blood thereafter shed.
Resolved, That in declaring that the principles of the Declaration of Independence apply to all
men, this Congress means to include the negro race in America as well as the Filipinos. We depre-
cate all efforts, whether in the South or in the North, to deprive the negro of his rights as a citizen
under the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution of the United States.
RESOLUTIONS OF THE NATIONAL DEMOCRATIC PARTY (COLD DEMOCRACY),
ADOPTED BY THE NATIONAL COMMITTEE AT INDIANAPOLIS,
IND., JULY 25, 1900.
Resolved. That in the opinion of this committee the nomination of candidates by the National
Democratic party for the offices of President and Vice-President is unwise and iueipedient.
Second— That we reaflfirm the Indianapolis platform of 1896.
Third— Wf> recommend the State Committees in their respective States to preserve their organi-
zations and take such steps as in their opinion may best subservetheprinciplesof ourparty. especially
in the maintenance of a sound currency, the right of private contract, the independence of the ju-
diciary, and the authority of the President to enforce Federal laws, a covert attack on which is made
under the guise of the denunciation of government by injunction.
We urge the voters not to be deceived by the plea that the money question has been finally set-
tled. The specific reiteration of the demand for the f re<^' coinage of silver at the ratio of 16 to 1 by the
Kansas City Convention and the history known of all men in connection therewith em; hasize the
danger of this demand. We indorse the action of Congrf ss in passing a bill embodying the gold stand-
ard as a step in the rierht direction. We feel it would be dangerous to elevate to executive power any
one hostile to the maintenance and enforcement of this law.
150 The Single Tax.
K\}t J^rtsitrential ISlrction of 1904»
The next Presidential election will take place on Tuesday, November 8, 1904.
The President and Vice-President of the United States are chosen by officials termed "Electors' '
in each State, who are, under existing State laws, chosen by the qualified voters thereof by ballot, on
the first Tuesday after the first Monday of November in every fourth year preceding the year in which
the Pre-^idential term expires.
The Constitution of the United States prescribes that each State shall "appoint," in such manner
as the Legislature thereof may direct, a number of electors equal to the whole nuniberof Senatorsand
Representatives to which the State may be entitled in Congress; but no Senator or Representative or
person holding an olFiceof trust or profit under the United States shall be an elector. The Constitu-
tion requires that the day when electors are chosen shall be the same throughout the United States.
At the beginning of our Government most of the electors were chosen by the Legislatures of their
respective States, the people having no direct participation in their choice; and one State, South Caro-
lina, continued that practice down to the breaking out of the Civil War. But in all the States now
the electors are, under the direction of State laws, chosen by the people on a general State ticket.
The manner in which the chosen electors meet and ballot for a President and Vice-President of
the United States is provided for in Article XII. of the Constitution, and is as follows:
The electors shall meet in their respective States, and vote by ballot for President and Vice-President, one of whom, at
least, shall not be an inhabitant of the same State with themselves; they shall name in their ballots the person voted for as
President, an 1 in distinct ballots the person voted for as Vice-President ; and they shall make distinct lists of all persons
vote 1 for as President, and of all persons voted for as Vice-President, and of the number of votes for each, which lists they
shall sign and certify, and transmit, sealed, to the seat of government of the United States, directed to the President of the
Senate.
The same article then prescribes the moie in which the Congress shall count the ballots of Ihe
electors, and announce the result thereof, which is as follows:
The President of the Senate shall, in the presence of the Senate and House of Uepresentalives, open all the certificates, and
the votes shall theli be counted ; the person having the greatest number of votes for I'resident shall be President, if such
sentation from each State having one vot« ; a quorum for this purpose shall consist of a member or members from two-thirds
of the States, and a majority of all the States shall be necessary to a choice. And if the House of Hepresentatives shall not
chooe a President, whenever the right of choice shall devolve upon them, before the fourth day of March n:xt following, theu
the Vice-President shall act as President, as in the case of the death or other constitutional disability of the President. The
person having the great-.st number of votes as Vice-President shall be the Vice-President, if such number be a majority of the
whole number of electors appointed ; and if no person have a majority, then from the two highest numbers on the list the
Sei;ate shall choose the \'ice-President ; a quorum for the purpose shall consist of two-thirds of the whole number of Senators,
and a majority of the whole number shall be necessary to a cnoice.
The procedure of the two houses, in case the returns of the election of electors from any State are
disputed. Is provided in the "• Electoral Count" act, passed by the Forty-ninth Congress. The act
directs that the Presidential electors shall meet and give their votes on the second Monday in January
next following their election. It fixes the time when Congress shall be in session to count the ballots
as the second Wednesday in February succeeding the meeting of the electors.
The Constitution also defines who is eligible for President of the United States, as follows:
Xo person except a natural-born citizen or a citizen of the United States at the time of the adoption o£?ihis Constitution
shall be eligible to the office of I'resident ; neither shall any person be eligible to that office who shall not have attained to the
age of thirty-five years.
The qualifications for Vice-President are the same.
STijr <Sinfilf JTax*
The following has been adopted as the official statement of the single tax principle by the advocates
thereof, written bv Henry George:
We assert as our fundamental principle the self-evident truth enunciated in the Declaration of Amer-
ican Independence, that all men are created equal and are endowed by their Creator with certain in-
alienable rights. We hold that all men are equally entitled to the use and enjoyment of what God has
created and of what is gained by the general growth and improvement of the community of which they
are a part. Therefore, no one should be permitted to hold natural opportunities without a fair return
to all lor any special privilege thus accorded to him, and that that value which the growth and im-
provement of the community attaches to land should betaken for the use of the community ; that each
is entitled toall that his labor produces ; therefore, no tax should be levied on the products of labor.
To carry out these principles, we are in favor of raising all jDublic revenues for National, State,
county, and municipal purposes by a single tax upon land values, irrespective of improvements, and
all the obligations ot all forms of direct and indirect taxation.
Since in all our States we now levy some tax on the value of land, the single tax can be instituted
by the simple and easy way of abolishing, one after another, all other taxes now levied and commen-
surately increasing the tax on land values until we draw upon that one source for all expenses of gov-
ernment, the revenue being divided between local governments, State government, and the general
government, as the revenue from direct tax is now divided between the local and State governments,
or by a direct assessment being made by the giMieral government upon the States and paid by them
from revenues collected in this manner. The single tax we propose is not a tax on land, and therefore
would not fall on the use of land and become a ta.x on labor.
It is a tax not on land, but on the value of land. Then it would not fall on all land, but only on
valuable land, and on that not in proportion to the use made of \^^ but in proportion to it.s value— the
premium which the user of land must pay to the owner, either in purchase money or rent, for per-
mission to use valuable land. It would thus be a tax not on the use and improvement of land, but
on the ownership of land, taking what would otherwise go to the owner as owner, and not as user.
In assessments under the single tax all values created by individual use or improvement would be
excluded, and the onlv value taken into consideration would be the value attaching to the bare land
by reason of neighborhood, etc., to be determined by impartial periodical assessments. Thus the
farmer would have no more taxes to pay than the speculator who held a similar piece of land idle, and
the man who. on a city lot, erected a valuable building would be taxed no more than the man who
held a similar lot vacant. The single tax, in short, would call upon men to contribute to the public
revenues not in proportion to what they produce or accumulate, but in proportion to the value of the
natural opportunities they hold. It would compel them to pay just as much for holding land idle a&
for putting it to its fullest use.
Naturalization J^aws of the United States. 151
:^^aturalijation ILatos of i\^t 2InttctJ estates*
The conditions under and the manner in which an alien may be admitted to become a citi-
zen of the United States are prescribed by Sections 2, 16o-74 of the Revised Statutes of tlie
United States.
DECLARATION OF INTENTIONS.
The alien must declare upon oatli before a circuit or district court of the United States or a
district or supreme court of the Territories, or a court of record of any of the States having
common law jurisdiction and a seal and clerk, two years at least prior to his admission, that it
is, bona fide, his intention to become a citizen of the United States, and to renounce forever
all allegiance and fidelity to any foreign prince or State, and particularly to the one of which
he may be at the time a citizen or subject.
OATH ON APPLICATION FOR ADMISSION.
He must at the time of his application to be admitted declare on oath, before some one of the
courts above specified, ' 'that he will support the Constitution of the United States, and that he
absolutely and entirely renounces and abjures all allegiance and fidelity to every foreign prince,
potentate. State, or sovereignty, and particularly, by name, to the prince, jwtentate, State, or
sovereignty of which he was before a citizen or subject, ' ' which proceedings must be recorded
by the clerk of the court.
CONDITIONS FOR CITIZENSHIP.
If it shall appear to the satisfaction of the court to which the alien ha^; applied that he has
made a declaration to become a citizen two years before applying for final papers, and has re-
sided continuously within the United States for at least five years, and wi' hin the State or Ter-
ritory Avhere such court is at the time held one year at least; "and that during that time ' ' he has
behaved as a man of good moral character, attached to the principles of the Constitution of the
United States, and well disposed to the good order and happiness of the same,' ■ he will be ad-
mitted to citizenship.
TITLES OF NOBILITY.
If the applicant has borne any hereditary title or order of nobility he must make an express
renunciation of the same at the time of his application.
SOLDIERS.
Any alien of the age of twenty- one years and upward who has been in the armies of the
United States, and has been honorably discharged tnerefrom, may become a citizen on his peti-
tion, without any previous declaration of intention, provided that he has resided in the United
States at least one year previous to his application, and is of good moral character. (It is
judicially decided that residence of one year in a particular State is not requisite. )
MINORS.
Any alien under the age of twenty- one years who has resided in the United States three
years next preceding his arriving at that age, and who has continued to reside therein to the
time he may make application to be admitted a citizen thereof, may, after he arrives at the age
of twenty- one years, and after he has resided five years within the United States, including the
three years of his minoritj', be admitted a citizen . but he must make a declaration on oath and
prove to the satisfaction of the court that for two years next preceding it has been his bona fide
intention to become a citizen.
CHILDREN OF NATURALIZED CITIZENS.
The children of persons who have been duly naturalized, being under the age of twenty-one
years at the time of the naturalization of their parents, shall, if dwelling in the United States,
be considered as citizens thereof.
CITIZENS' CHILDREN WHO ARE BORN ABROAD.
The children of persons who now are or have been citizens of the United States are, though
born out of the limits and jurisdiction of the United States, considered as citizens thereof.
CHINESE.
The naturalization of Chinamen is expressly prohibited by Section 14, Chapter 126, Laws
of 1882.
PROTECTION ABROAD TO NATURALIZED CITIZENS.
Section 2, 000 of the Revised Statutes of the United States declares that ^ 'all naturalized
citizens of the United States while in foreign countries are entitled to and shall receive from
this Government the same protection of persons and property which is accorded to native-born
citizens. '
THE RIGHT OF SUFFRAGE.
The right to vote comes from the State, and is a State gift. Naturalization is a Federal right
and is a gift of the Union, not of anyone State. In nearly one- lialf of the Union aliens (who
have declared intentions) vote and have the right to vote equally with naturalized or native-
t)orn citizens. In the other halt only actual citizens may vote. (See Table of Qualifications for
Voting in each State, on another page. ) The Federal naturalization laws apply to the whole
Union alike, and provide that no alien may be naturalized until after five years' residence.
Even after five years residence and due naturalization he is not entitled to vote unless the laws
of the State confer the privilege upon him and he may vote in several States six months after
landing, ii he has declared his intention, under United States Jaw. to become a citizen.

Residents of the District of Columbia never had the right to vote therein for national officers, or on other matters of national

1802 to June 20, 1874, the citizens of Washington, and from January 1, 1790, to said date the citizens of Georgetown, were entitled
to vote on municipal subjects and for certain municipal officers. The citizens of the portion of the District outside of Washington
and Georgetown were entitled to the privilege of voting on municipal subjects from April 20, 1871, to June UO, 1874, but that suf-
frage was abolished in the District of Columbia June 20, 1874, by an act of Congress of that date.

The registration of voters is not required in Indiana, New Hampshire, or Oklahoma. It is pro-
hibited in Arkansas and West Virginia by constitutional provision.
Oregon has a registration law which requires all persons desiring to exercise the right of voting to
register with a notary public, justice of the peace, or the county clerk, between the first Monday in
January and the fifteenth day of May, 1900, and between those dates biennially thereafter. If
elector has not registered he may, bj' proof of his residence and qualifications upon his own oath and
thatof six electors who know him, be permitted to vote.
In "Wyoming no person can vote without registering. If sick or absent at time of registration,
can make proof of fact by two witnesses, and be registered on election day.
The people of the State of Oregon voted upon a woman suffrage amendment in June, 1900. The
vote stood 28,402 against, 26,265 for. the whole vote of the people numbering 82,000. The joint
resolution to submit to the people of Iowa a woman suffrage amendment was lost in the House in
1900 by a vote of 55 against, 43 for, thereby showing a larger opposing vote than thatca.st in 1898.
A woman suffrage resolution came before the Ohio Legislature m 1900, by which it was referred to
the Committee on Judiciary, and there lost sight of. The New York Senate declined to act upon a bill
giving tax-paying women in towns and villages the right to vote upon questions affecting property.
The Committee on Election Laws, in the Massachusetts Legislature, reported 10 to 1 against a
petition for presidential and municipal suffrage for women. And for tax-paying women, the vole
was unanimous against the suffrage. After debate in the House for the latter, on February 20 the
vote stood 142 nays, against 40 yeas.
In Australia, October 10, 1900, the Legislative Council of Victoria rejected the bill passed by the
Legislative Assembly, providing for a referendum on the question of full woman suffrage.
In 1899 woman sulfrage bills were defeated in the Legislatures of Massachu.setts, Maine, Connect-
icut, Vermont, Illinois, Oklahoma, Arizona, Indiana, Missouri, Michigan, and California.
Woman suffrage amendments to the Constitution wore defeated by the peoplein the State elec-
tiousof 1898 iu South Dakota and Washington,, and in Oregon in June, 1900.
In Colorado, Idaho, Utah, and Wyoming women have full suffrage and vote for all officers,
including Presidential electors. The Woman Su.Trage law was adopted in Wyoming in 1870, and in
Colorado in 1393, and woman suffrage is a constitutional provision in Utah and Wvoming.
In Indiana women may hold any office under the school laws, but cannot vote tor any such officer.
In Kansas women exercise the suffrage largely in municipal elections.
In some form, mainly as to taxation or the selection of school officers, woman suffrage exists
in a limited way in Arizona, Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Iowa, ICentucky, Massachusetts,
Michigan, Minnesota, Montana, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New Jer.sey, New York, North l3akota,
Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, South Dakota, Te.xas, Vermont, Washington, and Wisconsin.
In Great Britain women vote for some local oflicors, but not for members of Parliament.
In many European countries, iu Australia and New Zealand, in Cape Colony, in Canada, and in
to Women is an organ iza-
: Committee is as follows: Mrs.

K%t ¥tnolustone National J^arfe*
Thk reservation known as the Yellowstone National Park, set apart for public uses by an act of
Congress passed in 1872, covers a tract of about sixty- five miles in length, from north to south, and
about fifty-five miles in width, from east to west, lying chiefly in Northwestern Wyoming, and
overlapping, to a small extent, the boundaries of Montana, on the north, and Idaho, on the west^
This gives an area of 3,312 square miles, a tract that is nearly the area of the States of Rhode Island
and Delaware combined, and nearly half as large as the State of Massachusetts. The Rocky Moun-
tain chain crosses the southwestern portion in an irregular line, leaving by far the greater expanse
on the eastern side. The least elevation of any of the narrow valleys is 6,000 feet, and some of them
are from 1,000 to 2,000 feet higher. The mountain ranges which hem in these valleys are from
10,000 to upward of 11,000 feet in height, Electric Peak (in the northwest corner of the park, not
far back of Mammoth Hot Springs) having an elevation of 11,1.55 feet, and Mount Langford and
Turret Mountain (both in the Yellowstone Range) reaching the height of 11,155 and 11, 142 feet re-
spectively.
166 Patent Office Procedure .
The following statement has been revised by the Patent Office for Tiik World Almanac for 1901:
Patents are issued in the name of the United States, and under the seal of the Patent Office, to
anj^ iperson who has invented or discovered anj' new and useful art, machine, manufacture, or com-
position of matter or any new and useful improvement thereof, not known or used by others in this
country befoi'e his invention or discovery thereof and not patented or described in any printed pub-
lication in this or any foreign country, before his invention or discovery thereof or more than two
years prior to his application, and not in public use or on sale in the United States for more than
two years prior to his application, luiless the same is proved to have been abandoned ; and by any
person who, by his own industry, genius, efforts, and expense, has invented and produced any new
and original design for a manufacture, bust, statue, alto-relievo, or bas-relief ; any new and original
design for the printing of woollen, silk, cotton, or other fabrics; any new and original impression,
ornament, pattern, print, or picture to be printed, paintedj cast, or otherwise placed on or worked
into any article of manufactui'e; or any new, useful, and original shape or configuration of any article
of manufacture, the same not having been known nor used by others before his invention or'produc-
tion thereof, nor patented nor described in any printed iiublication, upon payment of the fees required
by law and other due proceedings had.
Every patent contains a grant to the patentee, his heirs or assigns, for the term of seventeen years,
of the exclusive right to make, use, and vend the invention or discovery throughout the United States
and the Territories, referring to the specification for the particulars thereof.
If it appear that the inventor, at the time of making his application, believed himself to be the
first inventor or discoverer, a patent will not be refused on account of the invention or discovery, or
any part thereof, having been known or used in any foreign country before his invention or discovery
thereof, if it had not been before patented or described in any printed publication.
Joint inventors are entitled to a joint patent; neither can claim one separately. Independent in-
ventors of distinct and independent improvements in the same machine cannot obtain a joint patent
for their separate inventions; nor does the fact that one furnishes the capital and another makes the
invention entitle them to make application as joint inventors; but in such case they maj' become joint
patentees.
No person otherwise entitled thereto will be debarred from receiving a patent for his invention or
discovery, by reason of its having been first patented or caused to be patented by the inventor or his
legal representatives or assigns in a foreign country, unless the application for said foreign patent was
filed more than seven months prior to the filing or the application in this country, in which case no
patent shall be granted in this country.
APPLICATIONS.
Applications for a patent must be made in writing to the Commissioner of Patents. The applicant
must also file in the Patent Office a written description of the invention or discovery, and of the
manner and process of making, constructing, compounding, and using it, in such full, clear, concise,
and exact terms as to enable anj^ person skilled in the art or science to which it appertains, or with
which it is most nearly connected, to make, construct, compound, and use the same; and in case of a
machine, he must explain the principle thereof, and the best mode in which he has contemplated
applying that principle, so as to distinguish it from other inventions, and particularlj' point out and
distinctly claim the part, improvement, or combination which he claims as his invention or discovery.
The specification and claim must be signed bv the inventor and attested by two witnesses.
When the nature of the case admits of drawings, the applicant must furnish a drawing of the re-
quired size, signed bj' the inventor or his attorney in fact, and attested by two witnesses. In all cases
which admit of repi'esentation by model, the applicant, if required by the Patent Office, shall furnish
a model of convenient size to exhibit advantageousl.v the several parts of 4iis invention or discovery.
The applicant shall make oath that he verily believes himself to be the original and first inventor
or discoverer of the art, machine, manufacture, composition, or improvement for which he solicits a
patent ; that he does not know and does not believe that the same was ever before known or used, and
shall state of what country he is a citizen and where he resides. In every original application the
applicant must di-^tinctly state under oath that the invention has not been patented to himself or to
others with his knowledge or consent in this or any foreign country for more than two years prior to
his application, or on an application for a patent filed in any foreign country by himself or his legal rep-
resentatives or assigns more than seven months prior to his application in "this country. If any appli-
cation for patent has been filed in any foreign country by the applicant in this country or by his legal
representative'^ or assigns, prior to his application in this countrj', he shall state the countrj' or coun-
tries in which such application has been nled, giving the date of such application, and shall al.so .state
that no apnlication has been filed in any other country or countries than those mentioned ; that to the
best of his knowledge and belief the invention has not been in public use or on sale in the United States
nor described in any printed publication or patent in this or any foreign country for more than two
years prior to his appl cation in this country. Such oath maybe made before any person within the
United States authorized by law to administer oaths, or, when the applicant resides in a foreign coun-
try, before any ministerj charge d'affaires, consul, or commercial agent holding commission under the
Government of the United States, or before any notary public of'tlie foreign country in which the
applicant may be, provided such notary is authorized b.v the laws of his country to administer oaths.
On the filing of .such application and the payment of the fees required by law. if. on exami-
nation, it appears that the applicant is justly entitled to a patent under the law, and that the same is
sufficientlj" useful and important, the Commissioner will issue a patent therefor.
Every patent or any interest therein shall be assignable in law by an instrument in writing; and the
patentee or his assigns or legal representatives may, in like manner, grant and convey an exclusive
right under his patent to the whole or any specified part of the United States.
REISSUES.
A reissue is granted to the original patentee, his legal representatives, or the assignees of the entire
intere.st when, \ij reason of a defective or insufficient specincation. or by reason of the patentee claim-
ing as his invention or discovery more than he had a right to claim as new. the oriirinal patent is inop-
erative or invalid, provided the error has arisen from inadvertence, accident, or mistake, and without
any fraudulent or deceptive intention. Reissue applications must be made and the specifications
sworn to by the inventors, if they be living.
CAVEATS.
A caveat, under the patent law, is a notice given to the office of the caveator's claim as inventor,
in order to prevent the grant of a patent to another for the same alleged invention upon an application
filed luring the life of a caveat without notice to the caveator.

168 United States Executive Civil Service.
saniUtr States iExecuttbe (S^tbil cSetbtct*
{Revised for this issue of THE WORLD Almanao by the Secretary of the Civil Service Commission.)
The purpose of the Civil Service act, as declared in its title, is • to regulate and improve the Civil
Service of the United States." It provi<ies for the appointment of three Commissioners, a chief Examiner,
a Secretary, and other emplo\ es, and makes it the duty of the Commissioners to aid the President as
he mayrequest in preparing suitable rules for carrying the act into effect; to make regulations to govern
all examinations held under the provisions of the act, and to make investigations and report upon all
matters touching the enforcement and effect of the rules and regulations. The address of the Commis-
sion is Washington, D. C.
EXTENT OF THE SERVICE.
It is estimated that the number of positions in the Executive Civil Service is now about 182.000, of
which approximately 80,000 are classified competitive positions, and 102,000 unclassified Less than
20 000 of the official force are employed in Washington. D C Most of the unclassified positions are held
by fourth-class postmasters, of whom there are more that 71,000.
DIVISIONS OF THE SERVICE.
The rules require that all that part of the Executive Civil Service of the United States which has
been or may hereafter be classified under the Civil Service act shall be arranged in branches as fol-
lows : The Departmental Service, the Customs Service, the Postal Service, the Government Printing
Service, and the Internal Revenue Service.
The Departmental Service includes all officers and employes who on the one hand are not appointed
subject to the consent of the Senate, and on the other hand are above the grade of laborer, and who i
are serving in or on detail from the Departments, Commissions, and Offices in the District of Columbia,
the Railway Mail Service, the Indian Service, the Pension Agencies, the Steamboat Inspection Service,
the Marine Hospital Service, the Light-House Service, the Life-Saving Service, the Revenue Cutter Ser-
vice, the Mints and Assay offices, the Sub-Treasuries, the Engineer Department at large, the Ordnance
Department at large, the Land Office Service, and the force employed under Custodians of Public
Buildings, and in the U. S. Penitentiary at Leavenworth, Kan. In addition to these are included
all other employes (except laborers and persons whose appointments are subject to the consent of the
Senate) whose duties are clerical or medical, or who serve as watchmen, messengers, draughtsmen,
engineers, firemen, computers, or as superintendents of construction, superintendents of repairs,
or foremen under the Supervising Architect of the Treasury, or who are in any branch of the
Treasury Department not enumerated above The Customs Service includes all officers and employes
between the extremes before mentioned who are serving in any customs district. The Postal Service
includes all similar offices and employes at free-delivery post-offices. The Government Printing Service
and the Internal Revenue Service cover all like positions in the branches indicated by their designations
APPLICATIONS.
Persons seeking to be examined must tile an appiication blank The blank for the Departmental
Service at Washington, Railway Mail Service, the Indian School Service, and the Government Printing
Service should be requested directly of the Civil Service Commission at Washington. The blank for
the Customs, Postal, or Internal Revenue Service must be requested in writing of the Civil Service
Board of Examiners at the office where service is sought. These papers should be returned to the
officers from whom they emanated.
Applicants for examination must be citizeiis of the United States, and of the proper age. No per-
son using intoxicating liquors to excess may be appointed No discrimination is made on account of
sex, color, or political or religious opinions. The limitations of age vary with the different services, but
do not apply to any person honorably discharged from the military or naval service of the Unitea States
by reason of disability resulting from wounds or sickness incurred in the line of duty
EXAMINATIONS.
The applicants to enter the services designated are examined as to their relative capacity and fit-
ness. For ordinary clerical places in the Departmental Customs, and Internal Revenue Services the
examination is confined to orthograpny penmanship, copying, letter-writing, and simple arithmetic.
Patent examiners are examined in physics and technics, mathematics, chemistry and mechanical draw-
ing. Meat inspectors are examined in letter-writing, veterinary anatomy and physiology, veterinary
pathology, and meat inspection. One of the tests for post-office and railway mail clerks is an exercise
in reading manuscript addresses Specimen sets of questions will be furnished by the Commission
upon request. Examinations are held twice a year in every State and Territory at fixed times and
places. All examinations relate as nearly as possible to the duties to be performed, and, wherever
practicable, include experience and practical tests. No applicant is admitted to an examination in any
one of the different recognized trades, such as those in the Government Printing Office, unless he has
had five years' experience in his trade, one year of which must have been as a journeyman. This in-
formation is obtained by personal questions relating to the applicant's experience at his trade and the
certificates of persons who have employed him. No one is certified for appointment whose standing
in any examination is less than 70 per centum of complete proficiency, except applicants whose claims
for military or naval preference under Section 1.754 R. S. have been admitted. These need obtain but
65. The law also prescribes competitive examinations for promotion in the service. A certificate is
given to each person examined, stating whether he passed or failed to pass For positions in the
classified service where technical qualifications are needed special examinations are held. In the
Departmental Service they are held tor the State Department, the Pension, Patent, and Weather
Bureaus, Geological and Coast Surveys. Engineer Department at large, Ordnance Department at large,
etc. For places winch do not require technical qualifications the number of applicants is usually
excessive, and only those who attain high grades have a good chance for appointment There is always
a good demand tor male stenographers.
EXCEPTED PLACES
Among the places excepted from examination or subject only to non-competitive examination are
the following. Two private secretaries or confidential clerks to the President and each of the heads of
departments; one for each head of bureau appointed by the President and confirmed by the Senate, if
authorized bylaw; all persons appointed solely by the President, attorneys, assistant attorneys, and
special assistant attorneys. The excepted positions throughout the departments were increased in
United States Executive Civil Service. 169
UNITED STATES EXECUTIVE CIVIL SERVICE— C'on^m««L
number by the President's order of May 29, 1899, but are too diverse to summarize and too numerous to
mention here specifically.
APPOINTMENTS.
Upon the occurrence of a vacancy, the appointment to fill it, if not made by promotion, reduction,
transfer, or reinstatement (for all of which provision is made by the Civil Service rules), must be made by
selection from the eligibles of highest grade on the appropriate register. In the Executive Departments
at Washington and in the Government Printing Office appointments are apportioned among the States and
Territories on the basis of population. Every appointment is made for a probationary period of six
months. Whenever there are no names of eligibles upon a register for any position in which a vacancy
exists, and the public interest requires that it be tilled before eligibles can be provided by the Commis-
sion, such vacancy may, subject to the approval of the Commission, be filled by appointment without
examination and certification until an eligible can be provided by the Commission. The number of
women applying for clerical places is greatly in excess of the calls of appointing officers. The positions
to which the largest numbers of them are appointed are those of assistant microscopist in the branch
offices of the Bureau of Animal Industry at the various stockyards throughout the country, and teachers,
matrons, seamstresses, etc., in the Indian Service. A few receive appointments as stenographers and
typewriters in the Departmental Service, and a few are appointed to technical and professional places.
PREFERENCE CLAiMANTS.
Persons who served in the military or naval service of the United States, and were discharged by
reason of disabilities resulting from wounds or sickness incurred in the line of duty, are, under the Civil
Service rules, given certain preferences. They are released from all maximum age limitations, are
eligible for appointment at a grade of 65, while all others are obliged to obtain a grade of 70, and are
certified to appointing officers before all others. Subject to the other conditions of the rules, a veteran
of the rebellion or of the war with Spain, or the widow of any such person, or any army nurse of either
war, may be reinstated without regard to the length of time he or she has been separated from the
service.
PROVISIONS CONCERNING POLITICAL DISCRIMINATION, ASSESSMENTS, ETC.
The Civil Service rules provide that no person in the Executive Civil Service shall dismiss, or cause
to be dismissed, or make any attempt to procure the dismissal of or in any manner change the ofiicial
rank or compensation of any other person therein, because of his political or religious opinions or
affiliations; that no removal shall be made from any position subject to competitive eicamination except
for just cause and upon written charges filed with the head of the department or other appointing
officer, and of which the accused shall have full notice and an opportunity to make defence; and that no
person in the Executive Civil Service shall use his official authority or official influence for the purpose
of interfering with an election or controlling the result thereof. Such rules also provide that any person
in the Executive Civil Service who shall wihully violate any provision of the Civil Service act or rules
shall be dismissed "rom office.
The Civil Service act contains provisions forbidding any person in the service of the United States
from levying upon or collecting from persons in the Executive Civil Service contributions to be devoted
to political objects, the collection of such contributions by any person in any public building of the
United States, or discrimination against persons who do not make such contributions or render political
service. A violation of any of the provisions concerning political assessments, or their collection in a
public building of the United States, is declared to be a misdemeanor, punishable by a fine not exceeding
five thousand dollars, or by imprisonment for a term not exceeding three years, or by such fine and im-
prisonment both in the discretion of the court. The act also declares that when rules to carry its pro-
visions into effect shall have been promulgated, "it shall be the duty of all officers of the United Stites
in the departments and offices to which any such rules may relate, to aid, in all proper ways, in carrying
said rules, and any modifications thereof, into effect."
POLITICAL ACTIVITY OF OFFICIALS.
An executive order of July 14, 1886, which is still in force, warns office-holders that, while individual
interest and activity in political affairs are by no means condemned, they must bear in mind that their
time and labor are due to the Government, and that they should scrupulously avoid, in their political
action as well as in the discharge of their official duty, offending, by obtrusive partisanship, their
neighbors who have relations with them as public officials.
THE UNCLASSIFIED EXECUTIVE CIVIL SERVICE.
The portion of the Executive Civil Service which is not classified embraces the following: All
officers nominated by the President and confirmed by the Senate, including members of the Cabinet,
assistant secretaries, certain chiefs of bureaus, etc., in the Executive Departments at Washington,
collectors, naval officers, surveyors, and appraisers in the Customs Service, collectors in the Internal
Revenue Service, and first, second, and third class postmasters. Other unclassified positions are
fourth-class postmasters, the employes of the District of Columbia, the employes of the Library of
Congress, clerks in post-offices not having free delivery, mere laborers and workmen, certain positions
having a compensation of less than $300 a year, and the Consular Service Examinations for positions
in the service last named are non-competitive, and conducted by a board of the Department of State.
A considerable number of positions were excluded from classification by the President's order of
May 29, 1899, principally in the Departments of the Interior, War, and Navy outside of Washington.
THE PHILIPPINE CIVIL SERVICE.
On September 19, 1900, the United States Philippine Commission passed an act: " An act for the es-
tablishment and maintenance of an efficient and honest civil service in the Philippine Islands." The
act provides for a Civil Service Board of three persons which is to prepare rules for appointments and
promotions according to merit, and by competitive examinations so far aa practicable; for the seloctio' of
laborers according to the priority of their applications, by such non-competitive examinations as may be
practicable. Competitive examinations for appointment and promotion are to be held at Manila, Uoilo,
and Cebu, and also in the United States, under the auspices of the United States Civil Service Commis-
sion, for original appointment. Provision is made for transfer from one branch to another, and from the
170
List of Appropriations by Congress^ 189Ji.-1901.
UNITED STATES EXECUTIVfc CIVIL SERVICE— Con^WMcd-
Federal classified civil service; for reinstatements, for examining American applicants in Spanish and
native applicants in English, in cases where the Board deems knowledge of both languages essential;
for a physical examination of applicants in the United States; for an age limitation, 18 to 40 years, for
entrance to the lowest class; for temporary appointments, and a few exceptions from examination.
The act applies to all appointments of civilians to executive positions under the Military Governor
and thirteen specified departments, bureaus, and offices. The rules lo be formulated will prescribe the
method of appointment to the Manila police force and fire department.
The Board has power to administer oaths, summon witnesses, and require the production of official
books and records, and to prevent payment of salaries to persons in the service contrary to the act and
rules.
THE CIVIL SERVICE iN HAWAil.
On July 5, 1900, the Secretary of the Treasury issued an order classifying the employes of the
Treasury Department in Hawaii. The order is similar in scope and language to that of the same date
relating to Porto Rico.
THE CIVIL SERVICE IN PORTO RICO.
Under the act of April 12, 1900, the United States Civil Service supplanted the military service in
Porto Rico. Inasmuch as the executive officers and employes under this act become a part ot the Execu-
tive Civil Service of the United States, they are properly subject to the provisions of the Civil Service act
and rules. On July 5, 1900, the Secretary of the Treasury, with the President's approval, issued an order
classifying and including within the provisions of the Civil Service law and rules the officers and em-
ployes in and under the Treasury Department in Porto Rico, excepting persons appointed with the ad
vice and consent of the Senate and persons employed as mere laborers or workmen. On August 29 1900,
the Postmaster-General informed the Commission that the United States Post-Office Department on
May 1, 19 0, assumed control of the free-delivery service at Mayaguez and San Juan, Porto Rico The
Commission approved the lists of carriers transmitted therewith and authorized the treatment of the
offices as free-delivery offices.

The figures for Canada, Mexico, and British India refer to the fiscal year 1899-1900; those for
Nicaragua to the fiscal year 1898-1899. The imports into Ecuador are estimated from the returns for
the first six months of the current year; they therefore refer to 1900; exports from Ecuador are for
1899. The figures for Denmark, Greece, Austria- Hungary, Turkey, and Brazil are for 1898, no
later data being available. The trade of Venezuela is given for the year 1897.
ISvpanston ni tfje ^ratre oC tje saniUtr .States*
(From the Report of the Bureau of Statistics, Treasury Department. )
The fact that the exportation^ of 1900 exceed by $317,749,250 those of any preceding year, and
that this increase, while apparent in every class, is especially marked in manufactures alone, the
increase in which amounts to $921,692, .20 over 1899, suggests that new markets are being found for
American products. A detailed study of our export trade for the year shows that this growth is in
every part of the world, and especially in those countries to which all the great manufacturing and
producing nations are now looking for an increased market.
M^'hile Europe is naturally our largest market for breacistuffs, the percentage of growth in our
sales to other parts of the world is much more rapid. To Europe our exports for the j^earl900
cros.sed for the first time the billion-dollar line, yet our exports to that continent show an increase of
but 10 per cent in 1900 over 1899, and but 50 per cent over 1890, while to North America our exports
in 1900 show an increase of 18 per cent over 1899, and 95 per cent over 1890. To South America the
increase is very slight, owing, in part at least, to the lack of direct steamship communication for our
export trade. To Oceanica the increase in 1900 over 1899 is 45 per cent, and over 1890 is 162 per cent.
To Asia the increase in 1900 over 1899 is 34 per cent, and over the year 1890 is 229 per cent. To
Africa the increase in 1900 over 1899 is comparatively small, owing to the interruption of commerce
with that continent by the existing war, but compared with 1890 our exports in 1900 show an increase
of 324 per cent. To Europe and British North America our exports in 1900 show an increase of 10i,i^
per cent over 1899 and 57 per cent over 1890, while to all other parts of the world our exports in 1900
show an increase of 27 per cent over 1899 and 93.8 per cent over 1»90.

SOURCES OF GOLD AND SILVER PRODUCT OF THE UNITED STATES.
In answer to the many interrogatories received by the Bureau of the Mint relative to the sources
of the production of the precious metals in the United States, the following table, compiled. from
reports made by the mint officers and agents, as to the sources of production for the calendar year
1898, shows the distribution among the various gold and silver producing States and Territories of the
amount of gold and silver extracted from quartz, the amount qf gold obtained from placer, and the
amount of silver obtained from lead ores and copper ores as by-products.

* Estimated, f Lead and copper ores. ""
It would appear from the above that less than one-third of the silver product of the United
States is derived from mines producing silver ores proper, and that considerably more than two-
thirds of the entire silver output of the United States is a product from the smelting of lead and copper
ores, although this product is frequently more valuable than the other metals contained.

Calendar Year 1899, Distributed by Producing States and Territories, as Esti-

The computation of the savings deposits of the world shows that they amount to the enormous
sum of over seven billions of dollars. The depositors in the savings banks of the world, therefore,
would now be capable of advancing the amount of the war indemnity which France paid to Germany
after 1870 seven times over. The depositors of the United States alone could cover the amount nearly
twice over, and those of France. Prussia, and Great Britain could almost cover it from tbe Jeposits of
either country alone. The Empire of Austria- Hungarj' ranks third in the amount of savings deposits
and fourth in the amount per capita. These figures cover the deposits oi all savings banks in the coun-
tries named— the private and stock savings banks as well as the government banks— but they do not
include the great deposits in the commercial banks. The figures are made up by the Bureau of Statis-
tics from material taken from the reports of the Comptroller of the Currency.— Joi/7-»a^ of Commerce.

* Annual statements of the fire insurance companies are rendered to the insurance departments
during the month of January; therefore the statistics of condition in 1900 were not ready when this
publication went to press. ■"
t The New York law requires a deposit of $200,000 from foreign companies with the insurance
department. This is treated by the department as "deposit capital," and the surplus stated in the
next column is "surplus beyond deposit capital ' ' and other liabilities.

* For $1,000 at maturity of policy, f Nan-participating rates.
The rates for iaterniediate ages can be approximated by comparison with the rates stated. The
variation in the rates is due to the fact that the policy conditions (surrender values, incontestable
clauses, etc.) are more liberal in some companies than in others, and because some have employed a 4
per cent basis for the calculation of their premiums, while others have used 3 percent.
The rates for assessment and fraternal organizations are lower than those given above, but being
dependent upon the mortality experienced each year, they are variable and subject to constant change.
The above table of Annual Premium Rates was prepared for The World Almanac by S. H.
Wolfe, Consulting Actuary, New York.

FoRKST Area.
Thk total woodlaiid area in the United States is estimated at 1,094,514 square miles, or about
699,500.000 acres, which is iQ% per ceut of the total land area, Alaska not included. —GannetL
The total annual consumption of manufactured forest products in the United States, according to
the figures of the Census of 1890, is more than 18.000,000,000 cubic feet, divided approximately
as follows: Lumber market aud manufactures, 2,250,000,000 cubic feet; fuel, 15,000,000,000 cubic
feet; raUroadties, 27,000,000 cubic feet; fencing, 30,000,000 cubic feet; other items, 1,000,000.000
cubic feet. The amount of cubic feet of staudmg timber necessary to produce the.se quantities of
usable material is immensely greater, probablv almost double. The value of the annual products of
our forests was estimated by the Census of 1890 at $1,038,616,947.
At the pre.sent rate of cutting the forest land of the United States cannot long meet the enormous
demand made upon it By far the greater part of the white pine has been cut, and vast inroads have
been made into the supply of other valuable timbers. In man.v sections of the country more timber
falls by fire than by the axe. The average annual loss from fire is not less than §820,000,000.
Forest Prkservatiok.
For the preservation of the forests, the State of Xew York first instituted a Forest Commission in
1885. Several radical changes have been made in the law. which now provides for a ' ' Forest, Fish,
aud Game Commission," to whick i.s delegated the enforcement of the fish and game laws, the care
of the Adirondack Park, aud the State Forest Preserve. The Legislature of 1897 authorized the
purcba.se of lands in the Adirondacks as an addition to the Park and Forest Reserve to the amount
of $1,000,000, to which $500,000 in 1898 and $300,000 in 1899 have since been added. A State Col-
lege of Forestry has been opened at Cornell University, and has charge of 30,000 acres of State land
as a demonstration forest m the Adirondacks. Better methods of handling spruce lands have been
introduced on 150,000 acres of private fore.sts, under the direction of the Division of Forestry, U. S.
Department of Agriculture. The States of Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, Maine, New Hampshire,
Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin also have special commissions under their forestry laws. The Pennsyl-
vania "Legislature of 1897 provided for the purchase of three forest reserves of not less than 40,000
acres each, and the Wisconsin Assembly appointed acommission to formulate and recommend forest
legislation. Michigan also, in 1899, appointed a commission to study the forest question and select
land for a State forest reserve. Minnesota has probably the best forest lire law of any State, with a
Chief Fire Warden as e.Tecutive officer. In New Jersey and North Carolina the Geological Surrey is
specially charged with forest interests.
A national organization known as the American Forestiy Aasociation, composed of delegates from
the States, meets annuall.v. F. H. Newell, Wa,shington, D. C. . is Corresponding Secretary. Local or
State Associations have been formed in California, Connecticut, Colorado. Ohio, New York, Pennsyl-
vania, Kentucky, Massachusetts, Indiana. North Carolina, South Carolina, Washington, Minnesota,
Texas, Utah, North Dakota, Wisconsin, and New Jersey,
By act of March 3, 1891. the President is authorized to make public forest reservations. Seven-
teen such, comprising 17,968,440 acres, were establi-shed in Colorado, New Mexico, California, Ari-
zona, Wyoming, Oregon, and Washington, previous to 1897. On February 22, 1897, President Cleve-
land proclaimed 13 additional reserves, with a total area of 25.683,840 acres.
These reservations were made upon the recommendation of a committee of the National Academy
of Sciences after thoroughly investigating the subject at the request of the President. The Sundry
Hvil bill which passed Congress June 4, 1897, temporarily suspended the reservations of February
22, until the act of March 1, 1898, ordered their survey by the Director of the Geological
Survey, and appropriated $150,000 therefor. The bill provides that lands more suitable for agri-
culture than for forestry shall be permanently restored to ihe public domain. It also authorizes the
Secretary of the Interior to formulate such rules and regulations for the care and management of the
fo.''est reservations as mav in his judgment be necessary. Since its passage extensive additional areas
have been reserved in Ariaona,New Mexico, South DaKota, Montana. Utah, Wyoming, aud California,
and the attitude of the West toward the re-serves has radically changed for the better. The total area
of the forest reservations was on October 15, 1900. 46.828,449 acres.

orotherwi.se. established an annual Arbor Day. (See '* Legal Holidays. ")

The foregoing statistics of " Mineral Prodarts of the United 6tat»-»," and the table which follows nf " Coal Production in the
United States," and production of principal countries in 1899, were compiled by li. P. Rothwell, C. E., M. E., F. 8. S., editor of
"The Mineral Industry."

France, 1,800; Belgium. Spain, and other countries, 1,400. Total, 471,800.
The coal-fields of China, .lapan, (ireat Britain, (Germany, Russia, and India contain apparently .■?03,OflO,000,000 tons,
which is enough for 450 years at present rate of consumption. If to the a ove be added the roal-fields In the I'nlted States,
Canada, and other countrie , the supply will be found ample for 1,000 years. Improved tDAchinery baa greatly increased the
yield per miner, and thus produced a fall in price to the advantage of all industries.
The production of the principal countries In 1899 in metre tons (2,204.6 lbs.) was: United States, 228.717,579 ; United
Kingdom, 223,606,668; Germany, 135,824,427; Aust-ia-' !uiig ry (<■), 36,000,000; France. 32, 779,9n5 ; Belgium, 21.917,740;

(c) Four stop watches caught the time, but there was no speed indicator on the engine. The fastest time on record was made on
the Burlington Route, January, 1899, in a run from Siding to Arion, 2.4 miles in 1 minute 20 seconds, or 130 miles an hour. The
fastest time on record for a distance of over 440 miles was made by the Lake Shore and Michigan Southern K.R. from Chicago to
Buffalo, in October, 1895. The fastest long-distance run less than 440 miles was on the New York Central R.R. Sept. 11, 189.'), from
New York to Buffalo, 436 1-2 miles, in 407 minutes actual time. Average speed 64 1-3 miles an hour, with two stops and 28 slow-ups.
The fastest regular trains in the Uuited States, for a shorter distance, are believed to be the New York Central " Empire State
Express," between New York and Albany, 143 miles in 160 minutes, and those between Washington and Baltimore, on the Baltimore
and Ohio Railroad, 40 miles in 45 minutes, a speed of 53.33 miles an hour. The run from Washington to New York, 225.3 miles, is
made in 5 hours. Deducting 12 minutes for the Jersey City Ferry and 10 minutes for the Canton Ferry, the rate of speed is 4S.6 miles
Eer hour. The " Congressional Limited," on the Pennsylvania Railroad, makes the run from Jersey City to Washington in 4
ours 46 minutes, and tlie distance is 227 miles. "^
Fast running train on Philadelphia and Reading route (in Summer) — Camden to Atlantic City, 55.5 miles, in 44^ to 48 J4 minutes;
average daily speed, 71.2 miles per hour. On August 15, 1898, on P. <t R. and C. R. R. of N. J., "Royal Blue Line,' between
Elizabeth, N. J., and Jeukintown, a distance of 69 miles, in 61 minutes, including 2 "slow-ups," some of the miles being traversed in
38 seconds.
The quickest run between Jersey City and Washington, 231 miles, was made on the Central Railroad of New Jersey, March 2,
1897 (by a special train, bearing Vice-President-elect Hobart and party), in 4 hours 8 minutes, making the running time, including
"slow-ups" for taking water, changing engines, etc., 60 miles an hour. This beat the time of the " Aunt Jack " train, made by the
Madison Square Theatre Company March 10, 1890, which wa.s 4 hours 18 minutes, each way, going and returning.

Thk Hablem River Ship Canal, connectipg the Hudson River and Long Island Soqod> by way of Spuyteii Duyvil Creek and
Harlem River, w."ts opened for tratSc on June 17. 1895, and cost about $2,700,000.
SvKZ Canal.— The Suez Canal is ninety-iwo miles long and cost about $102,750,000.
Manchester Ship Canal. — Cost of canal about $77,000,000. For the half year ending June 30, 1900, the Ship Canal yielded
X16,4!>8 toward paying the .£112,500 of interest which the city of Manchesterhas to pay on the capital it invested in the enter-
prise. The freight- p.nying tolls on the canal amounted to 1,487,841 tons in the half year, which was 12 per cent more tlian the
year before.
Baltic Canal. — Also known as the "North Sea and Baltic " and "Kiel " Canal. The canal is a waterway of great strategical
importance for the Imperial fleets. It permits the German paval forces to concentrate themselves either in one sea or the other
in a very few hours.
Panama Canal. — Length, 46 1-2 miles; estimated time of transit, 14 hours. The construction of a canal with locks has been
pronounced practicable by an international board of French, English, German, Russian, and American engineers. The new plans
provide for the usual system of locks and dams. Good harbors exist at the Atlantic and Pacific terminals. The canal is practically
finished from Colon to Bujeo, 14 miles; this, however, is the least expensive part. The great trouble is in passing through the
Culebra Ridge. The width of the canal will be 160 feet at the top an.d 72 feet at the bottom, except through the ridge, where it will
be 78 feet at the top and 29 feet at the bottom. The cost of completing the canal, it is said, will not exceed $100,000,000. About
$275,000,000 is estimated as having already been expended on the canal, resulting in the ."iccomplishment of about 40 per cent of the
entire amount of excavation that will be required. Time required for completion, about ten years.
Nicaragua Canal. — Projected to connect the Atlantic and Pacific oceans, using the waters of Lake Nicaragua. Total
distance from ocean to ocean, 189.9 miles; depth of canal, .30 feet; least width at bottom, 100 feet; time transit from ocean to ocean,
44 hours; length of Lake Nicaragua, 110 miles; average width, 40 miles; surface area, about 2,600 square miles; area of watershed
of lake, about 8,000 square miles.
From New York to San Francisco by water, around Cape Horn, the distance at present is 15,660 miles; by the Nicaragua Canal
the distance between the same points will be 4,907 miles, a saving of 10,753 miles. The distances in statute miles from New York to
the Pacific Ocean by the principal land and water routes are as follows: By water to Cape Horn, 7,897; bv Southern Pacific Rail-
road, 3,709; by Canadian Pacific Railroad, 3,619; by Central Pacific Railroad, 3,269; by Northern Pacific "Railroad, 3,237; by Nica-
ragua Canal, 2,519. Distance from Manila to New York in nautical miles, via Suez Canal, 11,565; via Nicaragua Canal, 11,746.
Distance from Manila to London in nautical miles, via Suez Canal, 9,600 ; via Nicaragua Canal, 14,88u. Estimated cost of construc-
tion of Nicaragua Canal by Nicaragua Canal Commission wag $126,000,000 ; time required for construction, about seven years.

F:x-Chief Hugh Bonner, of the New York Fire Department, gives the following" rules applying to
houses, flats, hoteLs, etc.:
Familiarize yourself with the location of hall windows and natural escapes. Learn the location of
exits to roofs of adjoining buildings. Learn the posrtion of all stairways, particularly the top landing
and scuttle to the roof. Should you hear cry of "fire," and columns of smoke fill the rooms, above
all KEKF' COOL. Keep the doors of rooms shut. Open windows from the top. Wet a towel, stuff it
in the mouth, breathe through it instead of nose, so a.s not to inhale smoke. Stand at window and get
benefit of outside air. If room fills with smoke keep close to floorand crawl along by the wall to the
window.
Do not jump unless the blaze behind Is scorching you. Do not even then if the firemen with scal-
ing bidders are coming up the building or are near. Never go to the roof, unless as a last resort and
you k ow there is escape from it to adjoining buildings. In big buildings fire always goes to the top.
bo not jump through flame within a building without first covering the head with n blanket or heavy
clothing and gaugin" the distance. Don' t get excited ; try to recall the means of exit, and if any fire-
men rt- in s!ght DON'T JUMP.
If the doors of each apartment,especially in the lower part of the house, were closed every night
before the occupants retired there would not be such a rapid spread of flames.

* statistics of pauperism apply only to inmates of almshouses. Outdoor paupers are not considered
and there is no way of ascertaining their number in the United States, but it is couiparativelj' small
compared with that of European countries.
Of the 114,620 parents of the white prisoners 45,732 were native, 60,153 were foreign born, and
the birthplaces of 8,735 were reported as unknown. Omitting the unknown, the percentage of pris-
oners of the native element was 43. 19 and of the foreign element 56. 81.
As to nationalities of the 60.153 foreign parents of American pri.soners 29.184 were Irish, 9,987
German, 5.997 English, 4,064 English Canadian, 1,996 Scotch, 1,483 Mexican, 1.209 Italian, and
1,036 French. Other nationalities were below l.OOO.
Of the 133.156 parents of the white paupers 45,215 were native, 63.587 were foreign born, and
24,354 unknown as to birthplace. Omitting the unknown, as in the ca.se of prisoners, 41.56 per cent
of the paupers were of native and 58. 44 per cent of foreign extraction.
As to nationalities of 63.587 foreign parents of American paupers 32,421 were Irish, 15,629 Ger-
man, 4.688 English, 2,012 English Canadians, 1,392 Scotch, and 1,368 Swedish. Other nationalities

cation when this edition went to press.
PAUPERISM IN FOREIGN COUNTRIES.
1890. Registered public paupers in France, 290,000; Germany, 320.000; Ru.ssia, 350,000;
Austria, 290,000; Italy. 270,000; in 1897 in England, 824,000; Scotland. 101,000; Ireland,
99,000. Mulhall quotes authority that 38 per cent of all persons over 65 years of age in England
are paupers.
HOMICIDE IN THE UNITED STATES.
The census bulletin presenting statistics of homicide in the United States in 1890 was prepared by
Frederick II. Wines, special agent on pauperism and crime. The following is the summing up of the
results of his investigations :
Of 82,329 prisoners in the United States Junel, 1890, the number charged with homicide was
7,386, or 8. 97 jjer cent.
Omitting 35 who were charged with double crimes, 6,958 of them (or 94. 65 per cent) were men,
and 393 (or 5. 35 per cent) were women.
As to color, 4,425 were white, 2,739 negroes, 94 Chinese, 1 Japanese, and 92 Indians.
As to the nativity of the 4,425 whites, 3,157 were born in the United States, 1,213 were foreign
born, and the birthplace of 55 i.s unknown.
A careful and accurate inquiry into the parentage of those born in the United States results in the
mathematical conclusion that 56.14 per cent of homicides committed by white men and women is
chargeable to the native white element of the population, and 43.86 per cent to the foreign element.
On the same scale of 4,614 to 3,605, the negro contribution to homicide is represented by 5,478.
The number employed at the time of their arrest was 5,659; unemployed, 1,225; unknown, 467.
The habits of 973, in respect of use of intoxicating liquors,are not stated. The remaining 6, 378 are
classed as follows: Total abstainers, 1,282; occasional or moderate drinkei-s,3,829; drunkards,l,267.
As to their physical condition, 6,149 were in good health, 600 ill, 283 in.sane, 24 blind, 14 deaf and
dumb, 18 idiots, and 263 crippled.
According to the Chicago Tribune there were 5.637 homicides in the United States in 1900 to
November 13; 6,225 in 1899; 7,840 in 1898; 9,520 in 1897, and 10,652 in 1896. Total five years:
39,872.
CAPITAL PUNISHMENT.
The States in which the death penalty is forbidden by law are Colorado, Rhode Island, Maine,
Michigan, and Wi.scousin. It was abolished in Iowa in 1872 and restored in 1878. In Rhode Island
the only alternative is imprisonment for life. In Kansas the signature of the Governor is necessary
to an execution. The death penalty is inflicted in all the States for murder, excent the five above
named; and in addition, in Louisiana, for rape, assault with intent to kill, administering poi.son,
arson, and burglary; in Delaware and North Carolina, for rape, arson, and burglary; in Alabama,

ital case; in Connecticut, for causing death by putting obstructions on railroad. In some of these
instances the court may, in its discretion, substitute imprisonment. States in which the judge mav
substitute life imprisonment for the death penalty on the recommendation of the jury are: Ala"-
bama, Arizona, California, South Dakota, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Missi.ssippi,
Nebraska, Ohio, Oklahoma, and South Carolina, and those in which a like discretion is given to
the trial court are: Minnesota, New Mexico, North Dakota, and Texas. In Utah the coiirt may

The above table is on the authority of Mulhall, as are also the following statements:
Cancer. —Mental worry, says Dr. Herbert Snow, of the Cancer Hospital, is the chief exciting
cau.se of cancer. In 1891-95 the average number or deaths from cancer in England was 21,194,
About 60 per cent were females. Goitre. —There are 420,000 goitrous people in France and 2 per
cent of conscripts are rejected for this cause. Leprosy. -There are 131.618 lepers in India, 98,982
males and 32,636 females. No other countrv in the world approaches I ndia in this respect.
Plagues. —There were 196 destructive plagues in P.urope from 1500 to 1840, but the most terrible
recorded was tliat commonly known as the Black Death, which came from Persia into Eurojie in 1346.
It was preceded by myriads of locusts, which filled the wells and poisoned the water of the countries
ea.<5t of the Caspian Sea. At Bagdad 500, 000 people died in 90 davs: at C!airo the mortality reached
10.000 in 24 hours. In Europe it lasted four years, and was supposed to have carried ofif 24,000.000
persons, more than 30,00O owns and villages being depopulated.

THE PROFESSIONAL ARENA.
THE NATIONAL LEAGUE'S CHAMPIONSHIP SEASON OF 1900,
A BEVTEw of the National League' s pennant- race campaign of 1900, and of the financial resnltsof
the past championship season, presents anything but a roseate view of the condition of things in the
professional baseball business which prevailed in 1900, with not a very promising aspect for the ensu-
ing season of 1001. The experience of the past three years in the professional arena, and especially of
that of the season of 1900, goes to show that this phase of baseball placing has encountered a degree
of rival opposition from other prominent field sports of the period, whfch has materially lessened the
old-time profitable returns in gate receipts wliich baseball enjoyed in the earlier years of the past
decade. The magnates of the National League government seem to have lost sight of the fact of this
important increase of rival attractions in the field of sports. For instance, they forgot that in the
place of the old-time quarterly race meetings on the turf, we have of late years had weekly, and
almost dail J', contests at the racing courses or the country the best part of the entire year, and espe-
cially during the six months comprising the professional baseball season. This in i'tself has drawn
largely upon funds previously utilized in patronizing the baseball contests. Then again, the special
attractions of bicycling have for the past three j^ears led to the devotion of hundreds to that sport who
used to crowd the National League club grand-stands. Then, too, society's latest fad in the sport line,
the field game of golf, has also withdrawn hundreds from the ball field to the links, and there are
other sports which have led to a falling otTiu the monopoly of patronage which professional baseball
once enjoj'ed.
In view of these plain facts it would naturally be supposed that the governing power of the profes=-
sional business would be devoted to strenuous efforts made to offset the costly effects of these rival
oppositions, by ijiakiug the work on the professional diamond fields more attractive than ever before.
Instead of this, however, abuses have been allowed to creep in and work costly damage lo the
business, one of which consists of rowdy ballr playing, a consequent result of the indulgence of the old
"kicking" habit, and continuous and offensive disputing by the players of the decisions of the regular
umpires. This evil was especially conspicuous daring the J^eague games of 1900, and the falling off
in the attendance at the League grand-stands, which had resulted from the increase of counter
attractions in the field of sports, was greatly added to by driving away patrons from the graiid-stauds
who had become disgusted with the '^kicking" abuse and its sequence of rowd.v ball-playing.
Theinherentattractionsof baseball are such that no matter what blundering management may
do to lessen the financial profits of the professional business itself. It can have but little ett'ect on the
popularity of the national game at large. Never before during the forty odd years of baseball history
has the game's popularity been as widely extended as it was in 1900. More clubs were in existence
than ever before ; tlie aggregate attendance of spectators at match games outside the professional
grounds never before equalled that of 1900 ; while the sale of baseball materials " beat the record "
in 1900. Only the professional baseball business suffered from a lessening of patronage tlie past
season, and it remains to be seen this coming 8pring whether wiser legislation and greater attention
to true business principles will prevail in 1901 to an extent sufficient to affect, the ruinous effects of
past business blunders in the professional arena.
THE LEAGUE PENNANT RACE OF 1900.
In one respect the League pennant race of 1900 was more interesting as a contest than that of
previous races for some years past, the struggle for the leed toward the closp of the championship
campaign being noteworthy for its rather exciting finish ; while more clubs changed from one
division to another during the race than has been customar.v of late years. Still, however, the old
drawback to an evenly contested race prevailed, to the extent of having one club taking the lead in
the race early in the season, and maintaining it to the end, while another equally monopolieed the
tail-end position, the two clubs in question being the Brooklyus and New Yorks, both of the metro-
politan district.
Below will be found the complete record of the League pennant race of 1900, in which but eight
clubs of tlae twelve franchises held by the great major League took part in the championship race;

The above tablesfiows the work done by the four clubs of the two divisions against each separate
club of each division. Thus It will be .seen tliat while the Brooklyn team aggregated a total of 34
victories and 23 defeats against the three flrst-dlvlsion teams opposed to them, the Pittsburgh team
aggregated 37 victories and but 22 defeats against their three first-division opponents, thereby giving

them H lead over Brooklyn in percentage of victories figures of. 627 to .596. But against the four
second-division clubs Brooklyn excelled Pittsburgh by. 608 to .625 in percentage figures, and this
gave them the final lead in the race by .603 to .568. Pittsburgh, however, won its series with
Brooklj'u by 11 pames to 8, out of the 19 they played together, their series lacking one game of com-
pletion. Singularly enough the tail-end New York team did better against the Brooklyns than with
any of the other League teams except Cincinnati, while the self-same Cincinnati team was more suc-
cessful against tlie Pittsburghs than any other team was.
The analytical record of the League pennant race of 1900, giving the general statistics of the sea-
son's pla3% is appended, from which it will be seen that the Pittsburgh team carried off the honors in
winning the most series of games of the championship season, Philadelphia being second and Boston
third. St. Louis led the eight clubs in "shuttmg out" or Chicagoing the most teams during the sea-
son, while Boston and Cincinnati led in winning the most games marked by extra innings. Cincinnati
headed the list in winninprthe most games by its play in the last innings, Brooklyn being second in
this respect and Boston third, while St. Louis lost more games in the last innings than any other club.

THE MINOR LEAGUE ARENA.
Nearly a dozen minor league organizations entered the professional arena in 1900, of which but a
minority were able to remain to the finish of the campaign. Of these the only successful leagues of
the interstate class were the American— formerly the Western— League, the Eastern League, and the
Interstate League, and only a minority of the clubs of each league were financially successful.
The trouble in the case of the minor league organizations, which was a barrier to their financial suc-
cess, was their violation of one of the essential laws of their league business, and that was their failure
to adhere to their club salary-limit rule. All the clubs start out in the Spring of each season with
the intention of carrying the limit law into practical effect, but half the season is not over before half
of them secretlj" viol'ate the rule. The club oflBcials, in this respect, fail to reason that it is an act of
dishonestv to break the rule as they do. As the most of the minor leagues failed to complete their
season's campaign, I shall confine my naiuor league club records to those of the three leading organi-
zations, the American, Eastern, and Interstate leagues, the records of which I give below:

It will be seen that the Chicago team took the lead over the other three first-division clubs in its
percentage of victories over the clubs of its class; but against the .second-division clubs Milwaukee
had the best record. Of the four second-division clubs, the Clevelands held the lead in defeating first-
division teams, and Kansas City against the second-division class.

THE AMATEUR ARENA.
The triangular contest on the baseball field in 1900 between the University nines of Harvard,
Yale, and Princeton did not reach a championship conclusion owing to the failure of Harvard to play
off its tie with Princeton. Harvard won its first game witli Princeton by 4 to 0, but lost the second
bv 9 to 2, the third not being played owing to the objection of the faculty at Cambridge. Harvard lost
its firsi game with Yale by 15 to 5, but won the next two by 3 to 0 and 5 to 2. Princeton won its first
game with Yale by 9 to 3 and the second by 5 to 4, the third not being played. The record at the

The Golf Season of 1900.
257
K\^t (Sfolf .Season of 1900*
The progress of golf continues in the conservative lines which have governed its progress in the
past, the tendency toward a process of elimination and selection of the best players for national
honors being materially helped by the continued aggregation of local clubs into subordinate and State
organizations. At the same time the formation of clubs continues with unabated vigor.
The following officers of the United States Golf Association were appointed at the annual meeting
for the current year: President, W. B. Thomas; Vice-Presidents, John Reid and H. C. Chatliekl-
Taylor; Treasurer, S. Y. Heebner; Secretary, K B. Kerr; Committeemen, A.M. Coats and Horace
Bussell.
The men's amateur national championship was contested on the Garden City links. Long Island,
from 3Iondav, July 2, to Saturday, July 7, over an eighteen-hole couise. The greens were in perfect
condition and the weather intensely hot, culminating on the final day of the play in tv/o storms of
tropical violence. During the first storm play was postponed, and in the second the last three holes of
the finals were played in such a torrent of rain that no one but the two principals and their caddies

262 Yachting iii 1900.
Facttittfl in 1900.
Thk season of 190() for yachtsmen was one of the best known in the history of the sport in this
country. There was first-class racing in nearly all the classes, and more new boats took part iu lUe
contests than ever raced before. Just as the season was brought to a close Sir Thomas Ijiptou, through
the lioval Ulster Yacht Club, issued a challenge to the New York Yacht Club for another race for the
America's Cup. This i-ace is to be sailed this year, and indications are that it will be the closest con-
test ior the cup that ever was sailed. The challenge was received by Secretary Oddie, of the New
York Yacht Club, on October 1 ;. A special meeting of ths club was called forOctober IT.andat that
meeting the following challenge committee was appointed: Commodore L. C'. Led.vard, Vice-Com-
modore August Belmont, Rear- Commodore C. F. L. Robinson, ex-Commodore J. Pierpont Morgan,
ex-Commodore H. M.Brown, ex-Commodore E. IJ. Morgan, Secretary J. V. S. Oddie. S. Nicholson
Kane, Chairman of the Regatta Committee, and C. Oliver Iselin. The challenge was a short one; it
challenged under the same conditions as governed the last series of races. The yacht named is the
Shamrock II., a cutter 89.50 feet on the water line. The timechosen for the races was August 20, 22,
and 24, and continuing every other day until the series is ended. The Committee promptly accepted
the challenge and arrangements were at once made to build a yacht to defend the cup.
Briefly the conditions to govern the races are these: The series is the best three in five races; the
first, third, and fifth races are to be fifteen miles to windward or leeward and return; the second and
fourth races are to be over a thirty-mile triangle, ten miles to each log, and the first, if possible, to
windward; the time limit is b% hours; the start to be made at 11 o'clock, if there is wind, but if not,
to be postponed; no start is to be made after 1 o'clock; two minutes allowed to cross the line; in case
one vaoht breaks down during the race the other yacht is to finish the rac ■ a.id be credited with a win
if she finishes within the time limit. The races will be sailed ofT Sandy Hook.
Sir Thomas Lipton has ordered a new yacht from designs bv George L.Watson, who designed the
challengers Thistle,Valkyrie II. a. id III. The yacht will be built at Henderson's yard at Glasgow.
W.G. .lamieson, who sailed with the Prince of Wales on the Britannia in all that yacht's races, will be
the amateur in charge on the Shamrock II., and Capt. Edward Sj'camore will be the sailing master.
This makes the eleventh challenge for the America's Cup since it was made a perpetual challenge
, cup. The America won tlie cup on August 22,1851. J. Ashburv challenged in 1870. and the Magic
successfully defended the cup. J. Ashbury challenged again in 1871 with the Livonia, but in a series
of races she was defeated bv the Columbia and Sappho. In 1876 the Madeline defeated the Countess
of DnfTerin. In 1881 the Mischief defeated the Atalanta. In 1885 the Puritan defeated the Genesta.
In 1886 the Mavflower defeated the Galatea. In 1887 the Volunteer defeated the Thistle. In 1893
the Vigilant defeated the Valkyrie II. In 1895 the Defender defeated the Valkyrie III. In 1899 the
Columbia defeated the Shamrock. The first race was sailed on October 16. The course was 15
miles to windward and return. The Columbia led by 9 minutes and 50 seconds at the outer mark,
and won the race by 10 minutes 14 seconds elapsed time, or 10 minutes 8 seconds corrected time. In
the second race the Shamrock lost her topmast, and the Columbia finished alone. The last race was
sailed in a strong wind. The course was to leeward and return, fifteen miles, and the Columbia won
by 6 minutes 18 seconds elapsed time, and 6 minutes 34 seconds corrected time.
Two international races were sailed on the lakes— yachts of this country and Canada. The White
Bear Yacht Club, of Minnesota, challenged the Roj'al Canadian Yacht Club for a series of races for the
Seawanhaka Challenge Cup. The challenging yacht was the IMinne;0ta,and the defending yacht the
Red Coat. The races were sailed on Lake St. Louis, near Montreal. The first contest was on August
3, and the course was triantrular, the total distance being twelve miles. The Red Coat won. The
times were: Red Coat, 1.45. 18; Minnesota,!. 51. 38.
The second race was started on August 4, but the wind was so light the yachts conld not finish in
time. When the race was calleo off the Minnesota was leading. This race wassailed on August 6.
The course was windward and return, and the Red Coat won. The times were: Red Coat, 3.48. 15;
Minnesota, 3. 51. 20.
The third race was sailed on August 7, and over a triangular course the Red Coat won and saved
the cup. The times were: Red Coat.l. 42. 30; Minnesota, 1. 44. 47.
After the races were over three challenges were received for the cup. They were from the White
Bear and Bridgeport Yacht Clubs, of this country, and the Island Sailing Club, of England. This last
challenge was accepted, and the new yacht will be brought over by Lome Currie.
The Roya. Canadian Yacht Club challenged the Rochester Yacht Club for a race for the Fisher
Cup. The Minota was named as the challenger and the Genesee the defender. The first race was
sailed off Rochester on September 8 over a triangular course twenty miles in length. The wind was
light. The Genesee won.
In the second attempt the Minota led more than half way over the course and then broke down.
The Genesee finished alone. The series was the best two out of three.
The chief interest iu yacht racing was centred in the class of 70- footers built by Herreshoff. Four
boats were built and the.v were owned by members of the New York Yacht Club. The Mineola was
Vice-Commodore August Belmont's yacht, the Rainbow was owned by Cornelius Vanderbilt, the
Yankee by Harry Payne Whitney and Herman B. Duryea, and the Virginia by W. K. Vanderbilt, Jr.
These boats were built from the same designs, and all measured about 76.50 feet racing length.
Several of the larger clubs arranged special races for them, and the Newport Association arranged
a series of ten races for a cup valued at $1,000. The Mineola was the first yacht ready, and she was
followed by the Rainbow, Virginia, and Yankee. The finst meetine of any of these boats was in the
annual regatta of the New York Yacht Club, when the Mineola defeated the Rainbow by 1 minute 13
seconds. The Virginia made her first appearance in the races of the Seawanhaka-Corinthian Yacht
Club on June 21, and she finished .second to the Mineola, with the Rainbow third. All four boats
met for the first time on July 13, off Newport, in races arranged by the New York Yacht Club. The
Yankee won this race, with Virginia second, Mineola third, and Rainbow last. Altogether twenty-
eight races were sailed by these boats. The Mineola started in every one of these, the Rainbow m
twenty-seven, the Yankee in twenty-one, and the Virginia in twenty. The following table shows

The Mineola finished first in the New York Yacht Club annual regatta, the Glen Cove Cup race,
the three races of the Seawanhaka-Corinthian Yacht Club in June, four races of the Newport series,
three squadron nms during the cruise of the New York Yacht Club, and the Astor Cup. She won the
special prize offered bj' Rear-Commodore Robinson for the sloop winning the most squadron runs and
the special cup offered b.v ex-Commodore Brown for the 70- footer winning the run from Vineyard
Yachting in 1900. 263
YACHTING IN 1900—Contimied.
Haven to Newport. The Mineola was second in the Newport series to the Yankee, second to the Rain-
bow in the race for the Commodore's Cup sailed on the first day of the cruise, second to the Yankee
for the Postley Cup, and second in the race for the Lipton Cup.
The Yankee won the Newport series cup, the Postley Cup sailed off Larchmont, and two cups sailed
for off Newport under the auspices of the New Yoi'k Yacht Club in July. The Rainbow was first in
the races for the Commodore's Cup, first in the squadron run to Newport, first in three of the New-
port races, first in the Lipton Cup, Adams Cup, and Seawanhaka Cup i-aces. The Virginia won one
squadron run and finished first in the run to Vineyard Haven, but was disqualified for going south of
the Middle Ground buoy.
Alter the season was over H. B. Duryea, who had charge of the Yankee in all her races, wrote to
Cornelius Vanderbilt calling his attention to a violation of one of the racing rules. It was claimed that
Captain Parker, of the Rainbow, had put on extra ballast, thereby increasing that yacht's length,
without having asked for a remeasurement. Mr. Vanderbilt at once wrote to the different regatta
committees, telling them of his error, and stating that his boat was disqualified, and that he could
not accept any of the cups won by the Rainbow. The regatta committees disqualified the Rainbow,
and the cups were awarded to the yacht next entitled to them, but the owners of the other yachts
declined to accept the cups, and they will in all probability be raced for again next season. Mr.
Vanderbilt exonerated Captain Parker from all blame in the matter.
The most important trophy of the year was the Lipton Cup. This piece of silver was offered by
Sir Thomas Lipton. It was worth $2,500, and was raced for on September 13, off Sandy Plook, over
the America's Cup course, fifteen miles to leeward and return. The wind was very light and baffling.
The times made were : Rainbow, 5. 26. 13 ; Mineola, 5. 29.35 ; Virginia. 5. 31. 05 ; Yankee, 5. 31. 14.
Commodore L. C. Ledyard's schooner Corona, formerly the Colonia, won the Astor Cup race for
schooners, sailed off Newport, defeating the Quissetta handily. It was an oil .vear for schooner
racing. In Class A the Constellation did the best work. The Corona was tlie best in Class B, but she
raced very little. F. T. Adams' schooner Sachem won the Colt Cup races off' Larchmont, on July 4,
in this class.
In Class D the Amorita won six races early in the season, and then retired from racing, owing to a
death in the owner's family. H. F. Lippitt's schooner Quissetta started in fourteen races and won
seven firsts. Two English boats, the Astrild and Iso'de, were brought across the ocean and furnished
some first-class sport. The Isolde, owned by F. M. Hoyt, won six out of eight races.
In Class K of sloops there were many hot races. Three new yachts started in this class, the Altair,
owned by Cord Meyer; the Shark, owned by F. L. Ames, and the Hnssar II., owned bj' James Baird.
The first two named were Herreshoff boats, and the Hussar was built by Tom Webber. The Syce, a
Gardner boat, also raced in this class. The Altair started in eighteen races and won twelve firsts and
four seconds. The Shark started in seven races and won four times, the Hussar started sixteen times
and won one race, and the Syce started seventeen times and won seven times and was six times
second.
The special class of 30-f()oters raced nearly all the Summer off Newport. Fifty-fonr races were
sailed, and the total points scored were : Wawa, 69 ; Dorothj% 50 ; Vaquero IIL, 36 ; Hera, 35 ;
Esperanza, 38; Pollywog, 30; Asahi, 12 ; Veda, 12.
Among the small boats the class of 21- foot raceabouts furni3hed the best sport. There were eight
of these boats, and in all the races sailed they were separated at the finish bj' only a few seconds.
Johnston de Forest's Scamp won the championship, and at the end of the season the' Jolly Roger, the
winner of the Eastern Championship, came around the Cape and sailed a series of races against the
Scamp. The Jolly Roger won. This was the first of the intercity races which are to be sailed each
year for a championship cup between the best boats of the Long Island Sound Association and the
Massacha^etts Association.
The new home of the New York Yacht Club, which has been built on lots presented to the Club by
ex-Commodore J. Pierpont Morgan, was completed and turned over to the Club by the builders in
December. It occupies three full city lots, and is the most complete yacht club-house in the world.
It will be formally opened early in the new year. The house has been largely paid for by the mem-
bers of the Club, who contributed liberally to the building fund.
A new yachting organization was formed in the city early in the year. It is called the Yachts-
men' s Club, and has a home at 47 West Forty-third Street. It is to be the headquarters of all yachts-
men during the Winter months, and a]read.y has a membership of more than 200.
The schooner yacht Endymion, owned by George Lord Day. made a record run across the ocean
from Sandy Hook to Southampton in July, 1900. Her time was 13 days 20 hours, and the total
distance sailed was 3, 200 knots.
FAMOUS TRANSATLANTIC RACES.
In 1851 the schooner America crossed the ocean in 21 days. In 1^66 the schooners Henrietta.
Fleetwing, and Vesta raced from Sandy Hook to the Needles, Isle of Wight, for stakes amounting to
$90,000. The Henrietta won in 13 days 21 hours 55 minutes, averaging 9J^ knots for 3,106 miles.
The Fleetwing sailed 3,005 miles and the Vesta 3,046 miles.
On July 4, 1890, the schooners Cambria and Dauntless raced from Old Kinsale Head, Ireland, to
Sandy Hook. The Cambria won. She sailed 2,881 miles in 23 days 5 hours 17 minutes. The
Dauntless sailed 2, 783 miles in 23 days 7 hours.
The schooners Coronet and Dauntless sailed a match race for $10, 000 a side in 1887. The start
was made off Bav Ridge on March 12, and the race ended at Queenstown. The Coronet won. She
sailed 2,949 miles in 14 days 23 hours 30 minutes. The Dauntless sailed 2,947 miles in 16 days
1 hour 43 minutes.

INTERNATIONAL CABLE MATCH.
An international revolver-shooting match was held June 16 between a representative team of ten
American amateurs picked by a committee of the U. S. Revolver Association and a similar number of
French experts. The contest was conducted on home ranges, the Americans shooting at Armbruster's
Park, Greenville, N. J., and the Frenchmen in Gastinne-Renett's pistol range in Paris, the scores being
cabled across to each other. The conditions allowed each of the twenty marksmen 30 shots on the
standard American target, distance 150 feet, and 30 shots on a target selected by the Frenchmen, dis-
tance 5214 feet (6 metres), the possible score being 300 on each target, or 600 per man, and 6,000 for the
team. The result furnished an American victory by a comfortable margin of 61 points, 23 on the French
target and 38 on the American The scores follow :

Yale University has a clear title to the football championship of 1900. This is admitted by all
the experts who have followed the game for years. It is the first time in several years that a cham-
pionship has been decided beyond a doubt. In previous years experts have usually differed ou the
question of which college team had a right to the honors. Second place is conceded to Harvard, and
experts figure that the University of Pennsylvania is entitled to third place bj' virtue of her victories
over the Indians and Columbia. The latter university ranks fourth, ahead of Princeton. The Blue
and White defeated Princeton and the Indians, and held the strongest team that has been developed
at New Haven in a dozen vears down to 12 points, as well as scoring a touchdown— more than Har-
vard could do. In fact," Columbia was the only team to cross Yale's line during the season.
The 5 points credited to Princeton in her game against Yale were made on a goal from the field,
which, while it counts just as much in points, does not stand out as prominently in the records of a
college team as carrying the ball across the line.

with notable events, of which only a condensed summary can be given, as far as possible, in
the order of their occurrence. In the annual intercollegiate contest, which took place, according to
custom, during the holiday weet of 1899, Harvard was again victorious with the fine score of 9 games
won to y lost. Columbia scored 8i^ to 3Ji^; Yale, 5 to 7. and Princeton, 1^^ to 10^. In a triangular
league contest, which has come to be one of the annual events, the University of Pennsylvania de-
feated Cornell and Brown. In the cable match between the British and American Universities, the
representatives of the former won by the score of 4^ to 1}^.
The National Masters' tournament was held in Vienna for munificent prizes offered by the widow
of Baron Koi.sch, the famous player who won the Emperor' s prize in Paris iu 1867. In the Vienna

going to Hanham and Zirn. Prof. Isaac L. Rice was elected President to succeed E. H. Underbill,
who died during the year.
The Americans scored another victory in the cable match with Great Britain, and in case they

In the Masters' Tournament of the City of London Chess Club Teichman, Gunsberg, Ward, and
Blackburne carried off the chief prizes in the order named.
The important international contest of the year was played at Munich in August. Pillsbury,
Schlechter, and Maroczy tied for the three highest prizes, followed by Burn, Marco, Cohn, Phowalter,
Janowski, Berger, and Wolf, who received the minor prizes. The next important contest of an.inter-
national character will be held at Monte Carlo in the Spring.
William Steinitz, the great chess master, who held the world's championship for more than a
quarter of a century, died on August 13 of an affection of the brain, from which he had suffered during
his whole life, but which was in no way caused by his chess practice.
In a telegraph match between the Chess Clubs of Nev/ York and Chicago, the former won bj' the
score of 7 to 5. 8. Lipschutz won the first prize in a specially arranged masters' contest at the Man-
hattan Club, between Lipschutz, Showalter, Marshall, Baird, and Hymes. During the past year
Harry Pill.sbury, the Ainerican ckampion, broke all previous records for blindfolded play, by win-
ning 14 games, drawing 5. and losiag but 1 in an exhibition of simultaneous blindfold play.

278 Electrical jProgi'Css in 1900.
ISlrctrical Jlrogrtss in 1900.
IN GENEKAL.
Commercial developmeut and extensiou were the chief characteristics of the electrical industry
during ihe year 1900. While several valuable electrical inventions were produced and placed upon
tlie market, no great discoveries were made nor new principles evolved. The principal fields of
electrical activity enjoyed a twelvemonth of prosperity such as was never before known. It is usual
among manufacturers to regard a Presidential campaign year as one in which to exercise conser-
vatism. The pasi year, however, ha.s proved an exception to the rule, and electrical manufacturing
shops all over the country have been pushed to their fullest capacity, and in many instances work has
been carried on night and day. One of the principal electrical manufacturing companies, estimating
from a basis of seven months' product, expects that the total value of its maimfactures for 1900 will
approximate $2(>,000,000. A prominent firm of steam-engine builders in the West, who make a
specialty of producing large engines for direct connection to electric generators, are so overwhelmed
with business ttiat their agents have been instructed not to take contracts involving delivery in less
than twent}' mouths from the time the order is booked. Conservative estimates place the amount of
capital invested in the American electrical industry at $3,500,000,000.
Probably the most remarkable progress made durini; the year was in the construction, design, and
manufacture of electric automobiles. During the year four purely automobile exhibitions were held,
respectively, at Washington Park, Chicago; Madison Square Garden and Grand Central Palace, New
York City, "and in Washington, D. C. The public evinced the greatest interest in these expositions,
and manufacturers who were present with their machines not only succeeded in making many sales,
but believe that the industry has received a great impetus through the increased familiarity of the
public with automobiles. Electric vehicles are now made which can travel over ordinary roads for
from sixty-five to seventy-five miles on one charge of the battery. The great advantages of the
electric automobile over any other type are that it is perfectly safe and its method of operation is so
simple that women and children as well as men can enjoy its pleasures. The worst that can happen
is that the power will give out and the vehicle become stalled, which is also true of any other type.
The operation of the machine itself involves no danger whatever.
During the year great progress was made in the preparations for the Pan-American Exposition,
which is to be held at Buffalo, N. Y., beginning in Maj', 1901. The electrical effects to be shown there
will be the most elaborate and best designed of any ever conceived. Among the features will be
numerous electric fountains, designed on novel lines, and a gigantic electric tower, which will be as
much of a landmark of the e.xposition as the Eiffel Tower has been in Paris,
THE TELEGRAPH.
The two principal telegraph companies made about the usual amount of progress during the year
in the extension oi their systems and in the development of their respective territories. The wireless
telegraph system of Signor Marconi has been brought to practical utilit.v. and a number of foreign
governments have experiinented with it on warships with a view to its final adoption. At this writing
it is reported that the British Post-OflSce Department will acquire Signor Marconi's patents and all
rights in his inventions. If this comes about it will prevent other governments from using this val-
uable device, unless some one else invents a better and simpler form of apparatus for accomplishing
the same results. Toward the close of the ^year an ingenious fire-alarm telegraph, doing away with
the use of batteries, was produced. This promises, if carried to success, to revolutionize the present
method of sending fire alarms. The worK of the Signal Corps of the United States Army in the
Philippines was of the highest order during the year. The islands are practically covered with mili-
tary telegraph lines, and many of them are connected by submarine cables. The Government also
succeeded in laying several cables between points in Alashia and in the Klondike and in building
numerous militarj' land lines in that country
THE TELEPHONE.
In March, 1900, the American Bell Telephone Company was absorbed by the American Telephone
and Telegraph Company. It will be remembered that the American Bell Telephone Company was
the parent Bell company and controlled all the licensee companies throughout the country. The
American Telephone and Telegraph Company, popularly known as the ' ' Long-Distance Company,' '
owned and controlled the long-distance circuits and system throughout the United States. The new
company is called the American Telephone and Telegraph Company. The Erie system, which is one
of the largest licensee companies of the old American Bell, developed its plant considerably during
the year. It acquired numerous smaller companies in the West, and it has developed what is prac-
tically a long-distance system of its own. Its territory covers a large area in the Western and Middle
States, and the coinpany is making numerous improvements, not only in its line construction but in
its local exchange .service. During the year all the Bell companies on the Pacific Coast were com-
bined in one company,known as the Pacific Coast Telephone Company. The independent companies
made rapid progress during the year, and cei'tain States in the West are now gridironed with long-
distance telephone lines. In June the fourth annual convention of the Independent Telephone Asso-
ciation of the United States of America was held at Cleveland, O., and lasted three days. The
convention was well attended and numerous matters of great importance to the independent tele-
phone interests were discus,sed freely.
At the end of the year the sj-steni of the New York Telephone Company comprised over 51,000
telephone stations in the boroughs of Manhattan and the Bronx, showing "a wonderful increa.se in
growth over previous years. Several new exchanges were installed by the company during the year,
and it performed its usual excellent service in the prompt promulgation of election returns on elec-
tion nitrht.
Toward the close of the year it was announced that the Ainerican District Telegraph Company of
New York City had adopted a special type of telephone, with which it would replace the ordinary
messenger-call boxes at the request of its patrons. For this a small moutlilj' charge will be exacted.
The advantages of the telephone over a call box are manifest, but the telephone provided is not of a
type that will permit the usual telephone service. In other words, the subscriber may call the district
messenger office, but the office cannot call him, nor can he connect with other subscribers. It is
believed, however, that the company will install switchboards, so as to permit ordinary telephone
conversation between its various subscribers. Several steam and electric railway companies now use
the telephone for train despatching.
ELECTRIC LIGHTING.
There were no special developments made In electric lighting during the .vear. progress being
chiefly confined to the refinement and simplifying of the inclosed arc lamp, which has come to super-

sede all other forms. The incandescent lamp has for several j'ears been a standard device, and little
further improvement is looked for in it. Central stations throughout the country are preparing their
plants so as to be able to charge the batteries of electric automobiles. In New York City several
"charging posts" have been established by merchants who use automobiles for delivery wagons.
In this way the batteries of the vehicles may be recharged while the load of merchandise is being
placed aboard the vehicle. Several combinations of electric-lighting interests in the larger cities
were announced during the j'ear, and it is now a fact that the central station business of New York
City and Brooklyn is controlled by one company.
ELECTRIC POWER.
An increasing use of electric elevators was manifest during the year. Numerous large manu-
facturing shops were equipped with electric motors, driving overhead line shafting or direct coupled
to machine tools. In fact, this method of too} driving has become almost standard in the inodern
machine shop. The day of belting seems to have passed in the modern manufacturing establishment.
The fan motor enjoyedthe most prosperous season in its history, and a large export trade m this val-
uable apparatus is confidently expected.
ELECTRIC TRANSMISSION.
An increasing use of aluminum wire transmission lines w-as made possible by the high prices for
copper which prevailed during the year. The Niagara Falls Power Company added a considerable
extension to its already large plant, and the great plant of the St. Lawrence Power Company, at
Massena Springs, N. Y'. , is rapidlj' approaching completion. This company will produce, when its
present plans are carried out, a total of 150,000 horse-power, which will be distributed to manu-
!acturing companies in the vicinity. Other transmission plants of smaller size throughout the coun-
try were completed during the year, a number of these being in California and other Western States.
ELECTRIC TRACTION.
Considerable extensions of the underground conduit electric railway system in New York City
have been made during the past twelve months, and many more are contemplated. The Metropolitan
Street Railway Company, of New York City, acquired by purchase the Third Avenue Railroad Com-
pany, of New Y'ork, and the entire street-railway facilities of New York Citj' are now in the hands of
one company. During the year the Broadway cable road was equipped with conduits for electric
distribution, and it is expected that the cable on that line will soon be abandoned for good. There
are now more than one thousand electric railways in the United States. Toward the end of November
an experimental train equipped with electric motors was run over the Second Avenue elevated
structure of the Manhattan Railway Company, in New York. The company intends to install the
third- rail system on all its lines, and is building an enormous power station to supply current for
operating these lines. The experiment was a complete success, audit is believed that the already
high speeds of express trains on these lines will be materially increased bj' the use of electric traction.

THE NOTABLE BOOKS OF THE YEAR.
The output of books during the last year of the century exceeded that of all previous years.
Through all the excitement attending a Presidential election the publishers had courage to
bring out books, and from all reports, the orders from all parts of the country warrant calling
the year a success, as well from the business side as from the literary standpoint. The great questions
before the world, always reflected in the books of the hour, were the special issues of the Presidential
campaign — money, trusts, expansion, government of conquered territory — for us in the West Indies and
the Philippines, for the English in South Africa— the great international questions summed up under
the name of China, the Paris Exposition, the bubonic plague, and the many retrospections and prophe-
cies of a closing and an opening century. Death claimed two men who in widely differing manner had
roused the thinkers of the nineteenth century— John Ruskin and Friedrich Wilhelm Nietsche. Also
among the dead are Max MiiUer, the great philologist and student of the religions of the world; James
Martineau. the English Unitarian theologian; Blackmore, best known as the author of "Lorna Doone;"
Charles Dudley Warner, editor of "The World's Best Literature ;" the three war correspondents, Alex-
ander Forbes, George W. Steevens, and Stephen Crane ; Mary H. Kingsley, the daughter of Henry Kings-
ley, a woman of great learning, noted as traveller and explorer, and Lucretia P. Hale, untiring in the
cause of education.
FICTION.
Successful American novels were again a feature of 1900. "Richard Carvel" and "Janice Mere-
dith" are still among the most popular fiction. Among the great "sellers" of this year were Mary
Johnston's "To Have and to Hold," a story of the early years of Colonial Virginia, published in Febru-
ary, which in six months passed the 250th thousand mark; "The Redemption of David Corson," by
Charles Frederick Goss, a story of the spiritualizing of the faith of a Methodist preacher, which led to
hot discussion regarding its rather bold language; Bacheller's "Eben Holden, " with scenes in St.
Lawrence County, N. Y., at the time of the Civil War, introducing Horace Greeley and giving a de-
scription of the battle of Bull Run that has been highly praised, and Ralph Connor's " Black Rock "
and "Sky Pilot," tales of the lumber camps of Canada especially directed toward abolishing drink.
Marie Corelli's "Master, Christian," an arraignment of hypocrisy in society and in tue Church, with
Italian scene, has also reached a sale of 75,000, and Booth Tarkington's "Monsieur Beaucaire," a his-
torical tale of the days of Louis XV., is rapidly overtaking it. How far these great sales depend on
merit, how far they are the result of clever advertising, no man can determine for the next few years.
Among the novels of true merit, Mrs. Humphry Ward's "Eleanor," a study of a jealous woman's
final conquest of self, with beautiful Italian surroundings, takes a leading place. Then follow James
Lane Allen's "Reign of Law " (a story of the difference between religion and d-ogma), Barrie's "Tommy
and Grizel," a sequel to "Sentimental Tommy " (a line study of the artistic temperament); Robert
Grant's "Unleavened Bread" (the unrest and ambitions of modern American women). Gertrude Ather-
ton's " Senator North " (a composite portrait of the best types of American public men). Dr. Mitchell's
"Dr. North" (notable for conversations on literature, art, medicine, religion, and conduct) and "The
Autobiography of a Quack" (a study of a man devoid of moral sense), Phillpott's "Sons of the
Morning" (& psychological study of the love of a woman for two men),, and " Robert Orange " (sequel
to Mrs. Craigie's " School for Saints "). Novels laid in Italy are numerous and of a high literary standard.
"Eleanor" and "The Master Christian" are of these; also Ouida's "Waters of Edera," William
Barry's " Arden Massiter," Bowers' "John Thisselton " (called " Puppet Show " in England), Mem-
man's "The Isle of Unrest" (Corsica), H. B. Fuller's "Last Refuge" (a Sicilian romance specially
dealing with art and literature), and Mrs. Turnbull's "Golden Book of Venice," a historical novel of
the sixteenth century. "Hilda Wade" was a posthumous work of Grant Allen, finished by Conan
Doyle : Miss Braddon wrote " The Infidel " (Wesley and the dawn of Methodism in the time of George
II.): Mark Twain, "The Man Who Corrupted Hadleyhurg;" Marie Corelli, "Boy:" Stephen Crane,
"Wounds in the Rain;" Marion Crawford, "In the Palace of the King" (Spain in time of Philip II.);
Hewlett, "Richard Yea and Nay " (Richard Coeur de Lion); Hamlin Garland, "The Eagle's Heart"
(cowboy life in Colorado); Miss Glasgow. "The Voice of the People" (recent political and social life
in the South treated somewhat audaciously); Anthony Hope made a fine study of English political life
in "Quisante;" Tolstoi's "Resurrection" was widely read, and Mrs. Steel, in "Voices of the Night"
and " Hosts of the Lord," two studies of East Indian conditions, made a distinct contribution to the
literature of the year. A feature of the year was the re-issue of successful novels in fine illustrated
editions. Among them were "David Harum," Page's "The Old Gentleman of the Black Stock," Mrs.
Jackson's "Ramona," Mrs. Goodwin's "Head of a Hundred," Connor's "Black Rock" and "Sky Pilot,"
Greene's " Vesty of the Basins." etc. Several novels were written with Jewish heroes and heroines mak-
ing for toleration and a true appreciation of the inspiring traditions and domestic virtues of the Jew.
BIOGRAPHY AND HISTORY.
The finest literary work of the year is biographical. Biographies of men who strongly influenced the
century include "The Life and Letters of Thomas Huxley," edited by his son, and a smaller biography
by Chalmers P. Mitchell; Jackson's "James Martiaeau," Tarbell's "Abraham Lincoln," George Adam
Smith's " Life of Henry Drummond," "Life of Henry George," by his son; "The Story of Dr Pusey's
Life," published anonymously; "Henry Hart Milman," by Arthur Milman; "The Rossettis," by Miss
Carey; Chadwick's "Theodore Parker," Allen's "Life and Letters of Phillips Brooks," Hubbell's
"Horace Mann," Lidgey's "Wagner, " Bancroft's "William H.Seward," Connelly's " Grim Chieftain
of Kansas " (John Brown), Maxwell s "Life of Wellington," three biographies of Dwight L. Moody (died
Dec. 22, 1899), Forman's "Jefferson," two "Jefferson Encyclopaedias " and "Jefferson's Inaugurals," Lord
Rosebery's "Napoleon: a Piiase;" bioarraphies and estimates of "Ruskin," by Mather, Wedgwood,
Spielmann, Miss Meynel 1, and Frederic Harrison; Miss Ward's " Prophets of the Nineteenth Century" (Car-
lyle, Ruskin, and Tolstoi), and W. C. Ford's "George Washington." Morley, Roosevelt, and Hood wrote
"Lives of Oliver Cromwell," and Brady, Buell, and Otis wrote of "Paul Jones;" Park Benjamin de-
scribed "The United States Naval Academy," and our navy was also treated in Wilmot's 'Our Fleet
To-Day " and Bennett's "The Monitor and the Navy Under Steam:" and the army in Crane's "Great
Battles," in Henderson's "Stonewall Jackson," and another life by Hovey. Corbett's "Successors
of Drake " described the English Navy, and Jones' "The Russian Navy" was specially timely. American
history received contributions in De Roo's "America Before Columbus," a monumental work; Gnn-
noU's "Indians of To-Day," Edward Eggleston's "Transit of Civilization from England to America in
the Seventeenth Century," Bryce's "Hudson Bay Company," Fisk's "Old Virginia and Her Neighbors,"
Literature in 1900. 281
LITERATURE IN IQOO— Continued.
Wilson's "Colonial Byways," Liverraore's "Losses in the Civil War," Spear's "American Slave Trade,"
and Keifer's "Slavery." Works of historical reference include Lamb's "Biographical History of the
United States," Little's "Cyclopaedia of Classified Dates," Larned's "History of England," with ex-
haustive bibliography, and "Autobiographies of the Presidents." The year was unusually rich in
biographies of painters, musicians, and actors.
POLITICAL AND SOCIAL.
It IS impossible to give even an approximate idea of the vast number of books of which the keynote
was social problems, owing to the breaking of conventional shackles, the marvellous inventions, and the
great spread of educational privileges that have marked the century. Especially m America has the cry
been loud to pause and think before the ideals for which America has stood are sacrificed for the sake of
greed, luxury, and lack of patriotism. Of such are Boutwell's " Crisis of the Republic," Magan's " Peril
of the Republic," Spahr's "Danger for New Century Manhood," Taylor's " Ancient Ideals," Conwell's
"Our Nation's Need," Bouroff's "Impending Crisis " (concentration of wealth), Bascom's " Growth of
Nationality in the United States," Kautsky's "The Class Struggle," McKim's "Present-Day Problems,"
Grinnell's "Regeneration of the United States," Jones' "Economic Crises," Foster's "Century of
American Diplomacy," Bloom's "Hundred Years of Democracy," Baker's "Our New Prosperity,"
Brook Adams' "America's Economic Supremacy," etc.
The details of the dangers foreseen are handled in Carnegie's " Gospel of Wealth," Ely's " Monop-
olies and Trusts," Harper's " Restraint of Trade," Hobson's "Capitalism" and " Economics of Dis-
tribution," Hopkins' "Coming Trust," Jenks' "Trust Problem," Apthorp's "Trusts and Their Rela-
tions to Industrial Problems," Collier's "The Trusts," Nettleton's "Trusts or Competition," Tompkins'
"Plan to Raise Capital," Smart's "Taxation of Land Values," David A. Wells' "Theory and Practice
of Taxation." Hendricks' "Railway Control of Commissions," Daniels' " Department-Store System,"
"Dishonesty of the 1898 Bond Issue," Del Mar's " Histoi-y of Money," etc. As these dangers especially
affect the people can be learned in Herboldheimer's " Enslavement of the People," Tolstoi's " Slavery
of Our Times," Jennings' "People and Property," Kirkup's " History of Socialism," Bowley's "Wages
in the United States," Clark's " Distribution of Wealth," Willoughby's "Social Justice," Riis' "Ten
Years' War," Roberts' " Wages, Fixed Incomes, Silver," and many books on strikes. The dangers result-
ing from the universal migration to cities are depicted in Fairchild's " Rural Wealth," Adams' "Modern
Farmer and His Business Relations," Fairfield's "Rural Wealth and Welfare," Roberts' "TheFai-m-
stead," Myrick's "Crisis in Agriculture," etc. A work of great learning is Reinsch's " World Politics
at the End of the Nineteenth Century. " Expansion was the theme of Strong's " Expansion," Talcott
Williams' "Expansion," Reid's "Problems of Expansion," Conant's "United States m the Orient,"
Mahan's " The Problem of Asia," Holcombe's " Real Chinese Question, ' and ten important books on the
West Indies and the Philippines, besides many less valuable ones. About fifty really good books treated
of South Africa in a descriptive and political way.
DESCRIPTION AND TRAVEL.
Equally description and history is Marion Crawford's "Rulers of the South — Sicily, Calabria,
Malta," and description and politics are equal in Parsons' "China for an American Business Man,"
Martin's " Siege in Peking," Hannan's "Adventures in Peking,'" Ball's "Things Chinese," Walton's
"China and the Present Crisis," Cobbold's " Innermost Asia," and Colquhoun's "Overland to China,"
and about twenty-five more. Notable are Cook's "Picturesque America," Carpenter's "South
America," Scruggs' " Columbian and Venezuelan Republics," Fischer's "Anthracite Regions," Cook's
"Through the First Antarctic Night," Fricker's "The Antarctic Regions," Sommerville's "Sands of
Sahara," Workman's "Ice World of the Himalayas," Wilkins' " Among the Berbers," Gardner's "Life
in Japan," Slocum's "Sailing Alone Around the World." There were endless guide books to Paris and
thefollowing: Singleton's "Paris," De Forest's " Paris as It Is," Macdonald's " Paris of the Parisians,"
Whiting's " Paris of To-Day," and books by Walton, Morrow, and Maury, besides books of all kinds
devoted specially to the Exposition. The Philippines and South Africa also had many descriptive books.

<S?f05ra|)f)ical jprojartss in 1900.
The following is a general survey of the travels of notable explorers during the past year in remote
and uncivilized quarters of the globe (with brief extracts from recent reports of earlier exploration).
AFRICA.
In African exploration, the year 1900 chronicled the results of one of the most daring and remark-
able achievements of modern times— a continuous journey from the Cape through the heart of the
Dark Continent to Cairo and the Mediterranean Sea. The feat, never before accomplished, was
achieved by a comparatively young explorer, Ewart S. Grogan (.twenty-five years of age). Although
his course lay through tribes possessing the worst reputation for savagery, on only two occasions was
he forced to take life in self-defence. Of special interest was his description of the regions south of
Lake Albert Edward, and north of the Chambesi River (on which he discovered a vast unknown
swamp, about 1,500 square miles in extent); of interest also were portions of the journey northward
from the lakes, and his remarkable account of the Dinka country to the east of the upper Nile.
Another trans- African expedition from the Cape to Cairo was undertaken bj' Lionel Decle, under
the auspices of the London Daily ITelegraph. After leaving Lake Tanganyika, he and his party tra-
versed a tract of country hitherto unexplored. After defining the southern limit of the Nile basin in
this region, they pushed northward through German East Africa en route for Uganda.
At the close ot the year 1899, Capt. G. H. George began a journey through the unexplored regions
lying between Lakes Naivacha and Victoria. With eighty-eisjht followers he climbed the mountains
of Maou, and after traversing a forest containing trees of gigantic size he emerged into an open
country intersected by lunnerous vales and ravines. Traversing regions inhabited by savages tribes,
he finall J' reacbed the shores of Victoria Nyanza. Returning by the same route, he established friendly
relations with the natives of Lumbwa and Solik, and gathered valuable information respecting their
manners and customs.
Major Gibbous, continuing his important explorations on the upper Zambesi, after ascending that
river as far as Nana Kandoundou, directed his course toward Mpoueton, and finally toward Tangan-
yika and the Nile. On May 3 he reached Doufile, thus completing one of the most notable expedi-
tions of recent years. The exact position of Lake Tanganyika was determined in an expedition under-
taken by Messrs. Moore and Fergusson, who afterward visited Lake Kiou, and ascended and explored
the Rarbunga, an active volcano on its northern shore. Proceeding thence to Lake Albert Edward,
and crossing the River Gemliki, thej' explored the Roonenzori Mountains.
Two British expeditions worthy of mention penetrated a country little known, lying between the
Nile and Lake Rudolf, and southeast of the latter. One of these, under the conduct of W. F. White-
house and J. J. Harrison, accompanied by Messrs. Cotton and Butler, found the country around Lakes
RudolfaudStephaniafullofvillages filled with skeletons. Thesecond expedition, under Dr Donaldson,
crossed the River Jouba, north of Buntal, and the River Danoua, and visited El-Dere and Egder.
After reaching the lakes and arriving at Omo, Dr. Donaldson turned eastward, and discovered an
extensive plain, with an elevation of 500 metres. On March 17 he reached Fort Beikley. A vast
marsh was discovered in the bend of the Congo around the sources of the Ruki and Lukeny by M. Rue,
in a recent expedition to that hitherto unknown region.
On March 17 Maior Colin Harding reached the source of the Zambesi, and proceeded westward to
the coast, following up the work of Major Gibbons. Further exploration in Central Africa was prose-
cuted bv Poulett Weatherley at Chita, on Lake Mweru.
In East Africa the discovery oi the ruins of stone houses, a shirazi palace, and a mosque over-
grown with tropical vegetation, and apparently antedating the advent of the Portuguese, resulted in the
despatchingof a scientific mission thither by the Germans. An expedition consisting of Donald A.
MacAlister, Dr. (4roat, and others, to the so-called " Cleopatra's Emeraid Mines," in northern Etbai,
after setting out from Daraw with 130 camels, arrived at Jebel Sikait, near the Red Sea, December
14, 1899. and proceeded to explore the mines and other ruins with which the locality abounds. A
recent communicatiou received from the Italian Consul at Zanzibar contained a valuable contribution
to the geography of Somali.
From the north, a French expedition, under Messrs. Foureau and Lamy, which had pushed south-
ward across the Sahara Desert, arrived at Damerghu in November, 1899, and began the second por-
tion of a journey, having for its objective point the Congo, through Kanem and round the northern
shores of Lake Chad. From a scientific as well as from a political standpoint, the expedition was a
notable success. Unfortunately the explorer, Lamy, paid for his achievement with his life. Another
French Government expedition, under M. Flamand, to the Oases of Tuat, resulted in a valuable
addition to the geography of that region. The French were very active in the North and West, and
another expedition was despatched from Colonou to effect a junction with a party of British from
Lagos for the purpose of determining the boundary between Dahomey and the Niger Territories. In
Morocco valuable information was obtained by Dr. Weisgerber in a journey through the Province of
Chaouia.
ASIA AND OCEANICA.
During the year the celebrated Eastern traveller, Captain Deasj', returned to England with a wealth
of information gained from his two years' wanderings through an extensive region to the east of the
Pamirs Further exploration in tliis quarter of the world (by the Danish explorer, Lieutenant Olufsen)
formed the basis of an interesting report to the Berlin Geographical Society. Of special interest was the
explorer's discover.v of numerous traces of the Sia-posh people in the Panj Valley and Wakhain. Ac-
counts from Mongolia of researches prosecuted in the Gobi-Altai region were also received during the
yearbv the Russian Geographical Society. The Swedish explorer, Dr. Sven Hedin, undertook under
the patronage of the King of Norway and Sweden an exceedingly difhcnlt and dangerous journey
through East Turkistaii, and secured much important information supplementing his earlier explora-
tion oT those regions. Crossing the dry basin of the Lob-nor, he discovered many curious ruins on its
banks. Exploratory work In East Turkistan was also prosecuted by M. Boiiin, who encountered Dr.
Hedin at the River Yaiige-Kul. Further west Major Svkes carried on investigations in Persia.
In Palestine observations made by Mr. Gray Hill, who has for several years resided on the shores
of the Dead Sea, would seem to disprove the theory that the sea is drying up. On the contrary, its
level is said to be steadily rising, due, perhaps, to volcanic action below its oed. as shocks of earth-
quake, etc. , are reported, ,. ,^ - .r. . .•
News was received from the Austrian geologist. Dr. Franz .Schaffer, who, after crossing the Anti-
Tarus as far as Hajiu and Feke. proceeded to a thorough investigation of the Bulghar Dagh, the main
chain of the Taurus. . ^^. . ,
Of peculiar interest, in view of the Boxer uprising and complications in China, were reports of geo-
graphical \\-ork accomplished by the French missionaries in the provinces of Pechili and Ngau-Llvei.
The Zionist Movement. 285
GEOGRAPHICAL PROGRESS IN X^if^d— Continued.
Valuable additions to the knowledge of the Malay Peninsula were made by W. W. Skeat, who, in
compauy with several scientists from the University of Cambridge, explored the southwestern portion
of Siam and also the west coast opposite Pulo Penang. The River Lebir was ascended by these ex-
plorers, as was also Mount Gunong Tahan. In Laos and Anam, Indo-China, the labors ot M. Auguste.
Pavie and his associates will form an important addition to the geography of the Far East.
Oceanica claimed a considerable share of the geographical progress made during the j'ear 1900.
A synopsis of tlie main results of the Dutch expedition on the Siboga to the Malay Archipelago was
contributed by the leader of the expedition. Prof. Weber, and contained valuable information re-
specting the deep basins of the archipelago and their mutual relations. The basins were found to be
of astonishing depth, separated as they were from the ocean by comparatively shallow submarine
barriers; the waters of the Banda. Celebes, Seram, and Savu attaining in the deepest depths 3,000
fathoms, while the barriers rose to within 900 fathoms of the surface of the sea.
The report of a journey to the centre of Borneo, through a mountainous country, never before
explored, was submitted to the Royal Geographical Society by Charles Hose, an officer in the Sarawak
Civil Service, District of Batram. Peculiar interest attached to the report from the fact that the ex-
plorer and his assistant are the only white men residing in (and actually controlling) a district of
10, 000 square miles and inhabited by tribes but one degree removed from barbarism. From Dutch
East Borneo was received information of a harbor affording excellent anchorage for ships— Bay of
Balik Papan, 1° 15' 55" S. (a district considered almost inaccessible).
The exploratory work in the Philippines was mainly incidental to military operations and pre-
paratory to the systematic exploration (for scientific purposes) which will doubtless follow.
During the year reports were received of an expedition through the mountainous regions of New
Guinea, and of "a voyage of exploration along the south coast of New Britain. A voj^age to the north
coast was undertaken during the Summer by Herr Bennigsen, Governor of German New Guinea,
together with Drs. Koch and Pfluger, and the French Islands were visited. Hixen Bay was entered
and a large river explored, also several volcaiioes. Merite (Unea) was found to be thickly populated.
EXPLORATION IN THE WESTERN HEMISPHERE.
Early in the year the Government of Chile despatched a party of explorers to Southern Patagonia,
among others Dr. Reiche, who extended his researches as far as the Bay of Ultima Esperanza. Con-
siderable data of importance concerning this portion of South America (particularly with reference to
the Patagonia Andes) was collated by the labors of Steffen, Moreno, Bertrand, and other explorers.
Further north, new light was thrown on the geography of Eastern Bolivia by the French engineer
and explorer, M. Cerceau, who for the last nine years has been engaged in surveying for the Bolivian
Government, and prospecting for mineral deposits. The eastern districts were found to be extremely
rich in mineral wealth, especially the country of the Chiquitos. Much of the country traversed had
never been explored. A report was received froin the French Government Commissioners, Captains
Lacombe and Maurain, despatched to Ecuador to make the necessary preparations for the projected
remeasurement of an arc of the meridian. In the north one astronomical and ten new geodetic
stations were located, and ground selected for a base-line. In the soutli two new base-lines were
chosen and fifteen geodetic stations. Thirty peaks of the Andes were ascended in the prosecution of
the work. From Central America information of the volcanic regions was furnished by Dr. Sapper.
An excursion into the interior of Hayti and San Domingo, through regions rarely if ever visited
bv white men, was undertaken by Hesketh Pritchard, a journalist, whose observations are peculiarly
interesting from an ethnological standpoint. They reveal the fact that the islanders in the interior,
although much more hospitable to strangers than was commonlj- supposed, are steadilj' drifting back
to barbarism. On all sides were seen evidences of indolence, neglect, and decay. The old mansions
of the French colonists and other milestones on the road from savagery to civilization, left by the
white races when they evacuated the island, had all but disappeared. In natural resources he found
the inland districts extremely rich and the climate healthful.
Of geographical interest were the results of the census in Porto Rico (which revealed among other
facts the numerical preponderance of the white population of the island). Some exploratory work
was also done in Alaska. Several expeditions for that purpose were organized by the United States
Geological Survey. Geological and other scientific data gathered in a journey from Chesterfield Inlet
through the barren northlands of Canada was furnished by the explorer, D. T. Hanbury.

The one-thousandth anniversary of the death of King Alfred will be celebrated in England in
1901. The Queen has given the movement her patronage, and the memorial will take the form of a
bronze statue of King Alfred to be erected in his royal city of Winchester. A committee has been
formed in America to cooperate with the movement, and its members include Col. John May, the
Secretary of State; Bishop Potter, and the Presidents of Harvard, Yale, and Johns Hopkins Universi-
ties. King Alfred being the founder of Great Britain's maritime supremacy, a naval display will
bp held, and the largest armored cruiser in the world, to be launched in 1901, will be christened* King
Alfred. Wolvesej' Castle, the ancient residence of the English Kings, near Winchester, will be
secured as a memorial museum. The sum of £30, 000 has been raised to carry out the plan.
K\)t Zionist J^obcmtht.
The Zionist Movement aims " to obtain for the Jewish nation a publicly legally assured home in
Palestine," and has for its leaders abroad Max Nordau, of Paris; Dr. Herzl, of Vienna, and Chief
Rabbi Gaster, of London, and in this country Dr. Richard Gottheil and Rabbi Wise, of New York.
Some twenty- five colonies have already been settled in Palestine from Southern and Eastern Europe,
where anti-Semitic antagonism takes the form of persecution. A Jewish colonial bank has been
founded in London with $10,000,000 capital lo promote the movement. The fourth International
Zionist Convention was held in London in August, 1900. The organization in the United States is
entitled the Federation of American Zionists aud has a membership of 10,000 persons. At the third
annual convention of the Federation, held in New York City. June 10 and 11, 1900, the following
officers were elected: President., Prof. Richard Gottheil, Columbia University, New York; Vice-JPresi-
dents, Lewis A. Dembitz, Louisville; Dr A. Friedenwald, Baltimore; Rev. Dr. Gustav Gk)ttheil, New

(Prepared for The Wobld Almanac by Walter Wellman.)
The most interesting event in polar exploration during the j'ear 1900 wastlie establishment of a
new record in the efforts of man to attain the Norih Pole, Dr. Nanseu's achievement being eclipsed
by a sledge party sent out by the expedition of Prince Luigi, the Dukeof the Abruzzi. of Italy. This
party reached latitude 8 >o 33' North upon the ice-covered sea to the north of Franz .Josef Land,
thus passing bv 19' of latitude, or aoout twenty-iwo statute miles, tlie point attained by ISansen. The
Duke of the Abruzzi was not himself a member of this sledging party, and the honor of leading the
advance fell to Capt. Umberto Cagni, of the Italian iS'avy, who was the Duke's second in command.
The nearest approaches to the North Pole have been:

In addition to these records it should be noted that after Dr. Nansen and Lieut. .Tohansen left the
Fram (at latitude 84o 04'), that ship drifted to latitude 85o 56', or within 280}^ statute miles of the
Pole. As far as is known Lieut. Peary has not succeeded in advancing beyond the 82d degree of lati-
tude in (ireenlaud, the same latitude at which the Wellman Expedition was compelled by accident to
turn back in Franz Josef Land in March, 1899. The Jackson- llarmsworth (English] Expedition,
which spent three years in Franz Josef Land, reached latitude 81° 19'' in May, 1895.
The Duke of the Abruzzi, who is a son of the late Prince Amadeus, once King of Spain, and
brother to the late King Humbert, of Italy, purchased the old Norwegian sealing steamer Jason and
refitted her tor polar work, under the name "Stella Poiare"— Polar Star. He had the assistance of
Dr. Nausen in arranging his plans and providing his equipment, and sailed from Norway in June,
1899, with a crew of tA'enty men— ten Italians and ten Xorwegians. Arriving at Cape Flora (lati-
tude 80O), early in August, he put ashore provisions for a depot, and pushed northward through the
British Channel. At latitude 8Uo 30' the Stella Poiare met the Capella coming southward with the
Wellman Expedition al)oard, and the two parties exchanged visits. Finding the British Channel and
the waters to the north unusually free of ice. the Stella Poiare was able to steam to the 82d degree of
latitude, near the shores of Crown Prince Rudolph Land, the western coast ot which had been visited by
Payer in 1883, and the eastern coast bv Wellman in 1899. A harbor for the ship was found in Teplitz
Bav latitude 810 53', and here the expedition established its headquarters. A tent was erected on
shore for the stores and for the men to live in. During the Winter the ice pushed the .ship upon
thelandandseriously damaged the hull. In December, while testing dog- teams, the Dukesutlered
serious frost-bite in one of his hands, and amputation of two fingers followed. This accident pre-
vented him going unon the dash for the Pole with the sledge party the following Spring.
In Februarv, 1900, an advance partv was sent out to establish depots of supplies, and returned in
afewdavs. having accomplished its miission. February 28 the main party started northward, but
were driven back bv severe storms, and set out again March 11. Tlie party consisted of ten men,
and about sixty d \gs pulling the sledges. After ten days' march Lieut. Quarini, of the Italian
Navy; the Alpine guide Ulie, and the Norwegian Stokken, second' engineer of the Stella Poiare (sou of
Capt. Stokken, of the Capella), were sent back to the ship with a sledge and ten dogs. They were
never heard from again. It is believed they fell through tbe ice into the seaand were drowned. Not-
withstanding the low temperatures prevailing at that season the ice-sheet covering the Polar Seals
never at rest, and many cracks or we&k spots are found, these being often drifted over with snow.
Or the men may have been caught in an "ice-screwing "—ramming together of giant floes— while
asleep. Later a third party, under Dr. Cavalli, made their way back to the ship, but found no traces
of the three men who had preceded them. Capt. Cagni and three men continued sledpring northward
over the I rozen surface of the sea; they found the ice very rough, but managed to surpass Nansen 's
record some twenty-two miles. Satisfied with this, and running short of provisions. Capt. Cagniturned
back and reached the ship after an absence of 104 days, having travelled (outward and homeward to-
gether) a distance of 722 statute miles. Before reaching the ship Capt. Cagni and his companions
were forced to subsist in part upon dog fiesh.
Having succeeded in patching up his ship, and the ice having moved away from tlie shore and re-
lea.sed her, Abruzzi steamed southward in August. 1900, after an unavailing search for the missing
men, and reached Norway a few weeks later. He wa.s g-iven a most enthusiastic vvel come upon his
return to Italy. The scientific results of the expedition have not been published. It is not probable
that it has added much to the store of knowledge concerning the Polar basin, nor very much to the
geography of Franz Josef Land beyond the certainty that Petermann Land, which Payer thought he
saw in latitude 83°, and so named, does not exist. It is thus established that (rreenland extends at
least one degree of latitude nearer the North Pole than anv other known land.
The cost of the Abruzzi Expedition has been given at $200,000, to which the late King Humbert
contributed a part. The Duke of the Abruzzi now has to his credit as an explorer the first ascent of
Mount SL Elias and the nearest approach to the North Pole. The press has announced that Dr.
Nansen and the Duke of the* Abruzzi have formed a copartnership, and will seek the Pole
together in 1901, but private advices contradict this report. Abrnzzi. however, has ensraged the
steamer Capella to go to Franz Josef Land to search for the three missing men. While there is little
doubt that they have perished, Abruzzi still hopes for them, as thev may have .succeeded in reaching
the depot at Cape Flora or the Wellman station at Cape TegetthofT.
PEARY'S AND SVERDRUP'S EXPEDITIONS.
But scanty news has been received from Lient. Peary and Capt. Sverdrup, whose expeditions are
in Greenland or adjacent regions. Peary's steamer, the Windward, with ^^rs. Peary and .vonng
daughter aboard, went North in mid-summer. 1900, and was expected back in the Autumn with
Peary and his party. As the ship did not return it is supposed to have reached Peary's headquarters
at Etah, and to be winterinc: there.
Earlv in September. 1900. the Scotch whaler Eclipse arrived at Dundee from the Greenland
waters. having on board a member of the Stein parts'. Dr. Leopold Kann. Robert StPin. formerly of
the United States Geological Survey. and an Arctic enthusiast, accompanied by Dr. Kann. of "Vienna,
and Dr. Warmbath.of Boston. had been landed from the Windward, in Aueust.1899 at latitude 78°
45', InFllesmere Land. Dr. Kann reports that Peary passed the Winter of 1899-1900 ar Ftah. and
visited the Stein headquarters on the western side of the strait last February. In August, 1900, Kann

POLAR EXPLORATION IN 1900— Continue' I.
says he and his ccmpanions saw the Peary party, in three divisions, working northward, presumably
over the ice of the strait. Peary was badly crippled, Kann says, and walked with difficulty.
Late in November, 1900, authentic news was received from Peary himself; writing at Fort Conger,
March 31, 1900, his letter had been sent by natives to Etah and Cape York, and thence by Dr. Kann
to Scotland and America. Peary reports that he did pass the Winter of 1899-lbOO at Etah, but moved
northward to Conger in March (not August), and intended to leave Conf;er early in April to explore
the northeast coast of Greenland. He said he was in good health and had enough dogs, though he had
lost many. On account of his late start Peary's friends fear he will not be able to attain the Pole or
eclipse Abruzzi's record, but they hope he will succeed in delimiting the northern termination of
Greenland.
According to the report of Dr. Kann, Peary and Sverdrup had met in 1899 in Kane Basin, where
Sverdrup'sship was supposedly beset and Peary was travelling to or from Fort Conger; they had a
controversy, in which some feeling was developed, over their respective rights in the field of Green-
land exploration. Lieut. Peary has always claimed that owing to his preemption of that field by
prior occupation the Norwegian should not have entered it. iSverdrup's party had explored a large
part of Ellesmere Land, and is supposed by Dr. Kann to be passing the Winter of 1900-1 in Jones'
Sound, or Kane Basin, between the 79th and 80th parallels of latitude.
Unsatisfactory in some respects as this information is, it indicates that both Peary and Sverdrup
have met with unusual difiiculties during their two yearsin theGreenland region. Having established
his headquarters at Etah (latitude 78o 20') in 1898, Peary hud planned to go on to Fort Conger, the
old station of the Greely party in Lady Franklin Bay (latitude 81° 440. during the Winter, and to
make a dash for the Pole from that base in the Spring of 1899. In December, 1898. he did succted in
reaching Fort Conger, but at the cost of several toes, amputated as a result of frost-bites, his heels also
suflferiug; a further advance was impossible under such conditions, and Peary returned to Etah. It
was next understood to be his intention to proceed to Conger in the Fall of 1899, and make his pole-
ward dash in the Spring of 1900; but he decided to winter at Etah, and was therefore unable to leave
Conger before April, a month behind his schedule. Peary's movements after March 31, 1900, are of
course as vet unknown, but it is probable he was able to return to Etah and winter there with Mrs. Peary.
Capt. Otto Sverdrup. who was Nansen's master of the Fram during the famous drift-voj'age
through the Arctic Sea, left Norway in the same vessel in June,1898, intending to make an elTort to
circumnavigate Greenland, going up the west side and coming out via Spitzbergen. Sverdrup's
friends in Norway understood that he would also try to reach the Pole should a favorable opportunity
present itself. The Kann report indicates that Capt. Sverdrup has found it impossible to push the
Fram as far North as Fort Conger, and that he may be forced to return next Summer if he can get his
ship clear of the ice. Dr. Kann reports that Dr. Svendsen,of the Sverdrup party, died June 9,1899.
NEW EXPEDITIONS PROJECTED.
Baron von Toll, of Russia,sailed in the Summer of 1900 on a scientific expedition along the north-
ern coast of Siberia and among the Siberian islands. , ^^ , . . ,
A number of new North Polar expeditions are announced. The only one which as yet appears to
have made actual preparations is that proposed by W. H. Ziegler,a wealthy citizen of New York, who
has chosen for his field leader Evelyn B. Baldwin, who was with Peary in Greenland in 1895 and a
member of the Wellman Expedition to Franz Josef Land in 1898-99. ^ ^ . ^
Late in 1900 newspaper reports, not officially confirmed, were that the Russian Government
would send the ice-breaker Ermack to the Arctic regions in the Summer of 1901, under orders to force
a way to the Pole if possible. This powerful ice- ram. which was designed by Admiral Makaroff after
nlans wliich were first used in steamers employed to break the ice in the Straits of Mackinaw. Mich.,
has already been tried in polar ice near Spitzbergen with good results, . ^ ., ^ .
Despite the usual crop of rumors, no news of the Andr6e balloon expedition came to hand during
1900 Two more buovs from the balloon were found, but as both had been thrown out within a few
hours after tne ascension, which took place at Dane's Island.Spitzbergen, July 11. 1897, and prior to
the despatch of the carrier-pigeon which was recovered with a written message from Andree, no new
information concerning the progress or fate of the aeronauts is afforded. There is no doubt in the
minds of Arctic authorities that Andree and his companions perished, probably by forced descent in
the open sea or upon rough ice in high winds.
SOUTH POLAR EXPLORATION.
During 1900 a new record was established in the approach of man toward the South Pole also.
This was the achievement of the English expedition sent to the Antarctic regions by Sir George
Newnes of London, and under the command of Gapt. Egeberg Borchgrevink, a Norwegian Leav-
in"^ England in Ausrust. 1898, the expedition reached Cape Adare, Victoria Land, February 17,
1899 the middle of the Antarctic Summer. The steamer was sent back to New Zealand, and in May
the explorers entered upon the long Antarctic night. Sledging trips and scientific work in the neigh-
borhood occupied them till February 28, 1900, when the ship returned to the station. Using the
steamer for a further southward advance, Cant. Borchgrevink was able to rrach Ross' Bay (latitude
780 35' South), and here he took again to sledges in an eflfort to explore the interior of the country.
Enormous difficulties were encountered. The glaciated volcanic mountains of that region rise to
hei"-hts varying from 5,000 to 14.000 feet above the sea-level, and their slopes are so steep that a.scent
with sledges is well-nigh impossible. On this journey Capt. Borcherevink was able to advance
only 15' of latitude, or about .seventeen statute miles, beyond the ship; but at that point (latitude
78O50' South) he hid the satisfaction of knowinsr that he had attained the " farthest South."
Borch'^revink's record carried him within 770J^ statute miles of the South Pole. It thus happens
thatin the closing- days of the la.st year of the nineteenth century man has drawn a line of explora-
tion from Pole to Pole which lacks only about 1,000 statute miles of being complete.
Unon his return to New Zealand in April, 1900, Capt, Borchgrevink cabled: ^' South magnetic pole
located ' ' This grave rise to the belief that he had actually reached the south magnetic pole whereas
he had'merelv located itbv calculation from his magnetic observations. He was at no time nearer
than 2-'0 miles to the magnetic pole, which he computes lies in latitude 73° 20' South, and longitude
1460 F7ast Capt. Borchgrevink thinks it will be impossible for man ever to reach the magnetic pole,
which he says lies in the midst of a vast continent of volcanoes and ice.
There has been a marked revival of intere.st in Antarctic exploration, and three expeditions are
now nrenarinff to enter that field. One of these is German, others English and Scotti.^. Germany
will concentrate her attention to the south of the Indian Ocean. The main work of the English e.xpe-
ditionwill lie in Victoria Land, to the south of New Zealand; while the Scottish will go_ south of
South America,establishinK their base on Graham's Land. All three expeditions will cooperate in
"so far as possible by makiirg simultaneous scientific observations.

NATIONAL SCULPTXIRS SOCIETY.
The National Sculpture Society, with headquarters at New York, was incorporated in 1896. It is
composed of lay and sculptor members, and has for its object the spreading of the knowledge of good
sculpture, the fostering of the taste for ideal sculpture and its production, both for the household and
museums; the promotion of the decoration of public and other buildings, squares, and parks with
sculpture of a high class; the improvement of the quality of the sculptor's art as applied to industries,
and the providing from time to time for exhibitions of sculpture and objects of industrial art in which
sculpture enters. The officers are as follows:
President— Zdhn Q. A. Ward. F/ce-i^-esiden^s— Charles de Kay and Charles Rollinson Lamb.
Treasurer—l. Wj'man Drummoud. Secretary— V^'ilWsim. Herbert, 436 West 22d Street. New York.

NATIONAL ARTS CLUB.
The National Arts Club was organized in the City of New York April 24, 1899. The President
is George B. Post, President of the Fine Arts Federation, and recently President of tiie New York
Chapter of the American Institute of Architects. Spencer Trask is Treasurer, and Charles de Kay
Secretary and Managing Director. The club-house is at Nos. 37 and 39 West Thirty-fourth Street,
New York, where there are two fireproof galleries for the exhibition of industrial and fine art. An art
library was started last vear; there are rooms to let to non-resident members; a Flemish cafe occupies
the basement. Exhibitions and cafe are open to members only and their friends. The main purpose
of the National Arts Club is to show to manufacturers new ways of improving the objects they pro-
duce, and making the same more salable in the markets of the world through addition of art, and fur-
ther to open up to American artists new lines of endeavor by showing that art is not confined to the
statue and the framed picture. Membership limit, 1,500 men and women.

AN exposition of the achievements of civilization during one hundred years of development in the
Western Hemisphere will be held at Buflfalo, N. Y. , on the Niagara frontier, from May 1 to Novem-
ber 1, 1901.
The Pan-American Exposition will concern itself strictly with the progress during the nineteenth
century of the States and countries of the Western Hemisphere and the new possessions of the United
States. Its scope is, nevertheless, so broad as to include all departments of human effort. The pur-
poses of the Kxpositiou are manifold. One great object is to bring into closer relationship, commer-
cially and socially, tlie governments and dependencies of the Western Hemisphere and the peoples
owing allegiance to them, that the well being of these peoples may be promoted.
In many respects the Pan-American Exposition will far surpass former enterprises of tliiskind.
Its electrical display will be more complete, comprehending every detail of the science. Other super-
ior features will be' the hydraulic and fountain elTects; the horticultural, floral, and garden effects;
the original sculptural ornamentation ; the color decorations, and the court settings.
The general style of the architecture is a free treatment of the Spanish Renaissance, chosen by
way of compliment to the Latin-American countries whose Interest has been enlisted intheeuter-
pri.se, and generous use is made of brilliant colors and tints in beautifying them. The expenditures for
the Exposition will aggregate $10. 000, (^00. TheGalleryof Art, the gift of J. J. Albright, of Buffalo, will
cost upward of $400,000. The cost of the Midway attractions is estimated at more than $3,000,000.
The work is at an advanced stage (January 1, 1901;, and will be completed before the time for
opening the gates to the public.
As first planned in 1897, the Exposition was to be held at Casnaga Island, near Niagara Falls, in
the year 1899, and the fifty acres embraced by the island was thought to be ample ground. The pre-
liminary work was done along those lines, and the Federal Government and the Government of^the
Empire State were approached and interested. Then the Spanish- American war intervened, and it
was deemed best to allow the project to slumber. When it was revived it was on broader lines. It
had been a semi-private enterprise, but when new life was injected into it the men and women of the
entire Niagara frontier were invited to come in and help the matter along. There was a veritable
rush, and at one dinner tendered to Mayor Diehl, of Buffalo, §500.000 was raised in three hours, and
the million dollar mark of capital stock was passed in five days. Then the capital stock was increased
to $2,500,000 and the company was empowered to float bonds in a similar amount, thu.s placing
$5,000,000 at the disposal of the management, and the Federal Government soon followed with an
appropriation of $500,000, while the Empire State set aside $300,000.
With that great sum on hand, and with possibilities of large appropriations from the Dominion of
Canada, Mexico, the Central and South American Republics, and the various States of the Union for
special buildings, all thoughts of Cayuga Lsland were set aside, and a site embracing 350 acres, and
including the most beautiful portion of Delaware Park, Buffalo, as well as land adjacent to that
famous pleasure ground, was selected.
On behalf of the National Government, the Department of State in June, 1899, invited the gov-
ernments of the Western HeraLsphere to participate in the Exposition. Official acceptances have
been received from Canada, Mexico, Honduras, Nicaragua, Salvador, Guatemala, Guadeloupe, Dutch
Guiana, Bolivia, Argentine Republic, Chile. Costa Rica, Brazil, Peru, Venezuela, and Hayti. Un-
official assurances have been received from nearly all other dependencies and governments of this
hemisphere that suitable exhibits will be prepared by them.
The Electric Tower, 375 feet high, is the centre piece of the Exposition. Its main body is SO feet
square and 200 feet high. The crown is in three parts, of diminishing proportions. The first of these
is an arcaded loggia, with pavilionettes adorning each of the four corners. Above the loggia is a high,
circular colonnade entirely open. A spiral stairway in the centre leads up to adorned cupola, on which
is poised a figure of the Goddess of Light, overlooking and dominating the entire Exposition. Upon
this tower and the buildings and courts are to be electrical illuminations on a scale never before at-
tempted. Elevators will run to a restaurant, roof garden, reception-room, etc., on the many fl(>ors.
As Buffalo intends in 1901 to prove her claim to the title of "The Electric City, " which some
have given her, it is but fitting that electricity should be the dominant feature of the coming PJxposi-
tion, for the Cataract of Niagara is within a few miles and the countless millions of horse-power of
that great waterfall will be harnessed to produce the energy which will move the wheels and turn
the levers and illuminate the buildings with the Exposition gates. The electric fountain will be
colored red, green, and gold by thousands of electric bulbs, which will be skilfully made to furnish
effects never before seen. All about the Exposition grounds a grand canal will twist and twine, and
at points along that waterway there will be caverns and grottoes more beautiful than the famed ones
of Capri, and in them will lie the most prominent electrical effects. Water cascades will flash lights
in never-endiner beauty, and towers, domes, and pinnacles will be masses of radiance.
The facilities afforded by the location of the Exposition are unusual. Buffalo is an ideal Summer
city, and is the very hub of the most thickly settled section of the North American* Continent. As
gateway between the Prairie States of the West and the Atlantic seaboard a vast flood of travel comes
to her gates, and within the confines of a 500-mile circle no less than 40.000,000 people live.
The exhibits of the Exposition are divided into fifteen classes, as follows: Electricity and elec-
trical appliances; fine arts— painting, sculpture, and allied arts; graphic arts— tj'pography. lith-
ography, steel and copper- plate printing, photo-mechanical processes, drawing, ensrraving. and book-
binding; liberal arts-education, music, engineering, public works, constructive architecture,

Exposition of 1901 ==2.
An exposition of the interests and resources of the South, demonstrating both the wonderful
development during the last quarter of the nineteenth century and the magnificent possibilities of
the Southern States of the American Union, and to exhibit the industries and resources of Cuba,
Porto Rico, and Central and South America, will be held in the city of Charleston, S. C. , from. De-
cember 1. 1901, to May 1, 1902.
No section of the United States presents to capitalists or home-seekers more natural advantages
than are offered in the Southern States, and no more appropriate place for such an exposition than
Charleston.
As at first propo.sed, the Exposition was to be confined to the State of South Carolina, but so
widely spread was the interest manifested, and so prompt and ample the response to the call for
funds, that it was decided to make the Exposition "interstate;" and the proximity of Charleston to
the West Indian Islands, with all their immense natural wealth, suggested the propriety of so en-
larging the scope as to embrace these islands as well as Central and South America.
The one hundred and fifty acres comprising the site are divided into two distinct sections, one of
nature and the other of art, each helping the other by direct contrast, while perfectly harmonious in
treatment and individuality. Nature througliout the past centurj', with a very lavisli hand, has
made possible landscape effects, by means of natural conditions and trees and foliage, which it would
take centuries to I'eproduce, even at an enormous outlay.
Undoubtedly, Charleston stands alone as the mo8.t interesting type of the old Southern cities, con-
taining as it does vSO many interesting points and quaint, picturesque bits of architecture of distinctly
Southern type. These it is proposed to emphasize, and thus carry out the predominating feature of
the Exposition in harmony unobtainable elsewhere.
The capital stock of the Exposition is placed at $250,000, and the resources for exposition
purposes are over $1,000,000. This Exposition, although mallerthan some of its great predecessors,
will be one of the most complete, harmonious, and artistic ever presented.
The aid and assistance of Congre.is is expected, and a bill appropriating §250,000 has been re-
ported upon favorably In the Senate. The Legislature of South Carolina has strongly indorsed the
Exposition, and the Mayor and City Council of Charleston have given their aid and assistance.

The centennial of the purchase of the Louisiana Territory by Thomas Jefferson will be celebrated
in the city of St. Louis in the year 1903. According to the present plans, the Exposition will be
opened in the Spring and remain open about six months. The movement originated about three
years ago, when the Missouri Historical Society passed a resolution, declaring the necessity of an
adequate celebration within the boundaries of the purchase territory, of an event which was charac-
terized as second only in importance in national history to the signing of the Declaration of Inde-
pendence. The original idea was to raise a fund to erect a museum which would be a permanent
home for the Historical Society, and in which its valuable records, historical and otherwise, could
be safely stored and displayed. A committee of fifty gentlemen nominated by the various com-
mercial, professional, and social organizations of the city was formed, and this committee spent

ST. LOUIS WORLD'S FAIR OP IQO^—Continiied.
uearly tbe whole of the year 1898 in consideriug suggestions for the best method of celebration. One
by one the members of the committee were convinced that an international exposition was the only
adequate method of celebrating the centennial, and in theWinter of the year named the Governor of
Missouri wjis requested to call a convention in the city of 8t. Louis, to be composed of delegates nom-
inated by the Cxovernors of the seventeen States and Territories carved out of the Louisiana purchase.
In response to the call, a convention was held in St. Louis on January 10 and 11, 1899. Sixteen of
the States and Territories were represented, and by unanimous vote it was decided to celebrate the
centennial by a World's Fair, to be held in St. Louis. A resolution also prevailed placing the mini-
mum expenditure in the installing of the Fair at S15, 0()0, 000. Of this sum St. Louis undertook to
raise $10, 000, 000. conditional upon the Federal Government appropriating theremaining$5,000,000.
The Committee of Fifty was enlarged to a Committee of Two Hundred. Of this committee,
Pierre Chouteau, a din^ct descendant of the founder of St. Louis, was made Chairman. An Execu-
tive Committee was formed, of whichex-Secretarj'of the Interior D. R. Francis was made Chair-
man, and a Finance Committee, of which William H. Thompson, President of the Bank of Com-
merce, was placed at the head. Jaines Cox, Secretary of the Business Men's League of St. Louis,
was appointed Secretary of the Committee of Two Hundred and of the Executive Committee. Other
necessary sub-committees were also appointed. Congress, at the long session of 1900, agreed to
appropriate jJ5. 000. 000 toward the expense of installing the Fair, conditional upon the city of St.
Louis raising $10,000, OuO. At the general election on November 6 the voters of Missouri, by an
overwhelming majority, adopted two constitutional amendments. The first of these authorizes the
city of St. Louis to issue $5,000,000 of bonds to be invested in the World's Fair enterprise. In the
city of St. Louis itself the vote in favor of the bond issue was 85.000 for and about 11,000 against,
and the amendment being carried by a majority in both city and State, the issuance of bonds is
assured. The second constitutional amendment adopted calls for a State appropriation of $1,000,-
000 for an exhibit of the resources of Missouri at the World's Fair. Congress having voted $5,000,-
OOO. and the municipality of St. Louis a second $5,000,000, a popular subscription to cover the third
$5,000,000 is now being completed, and at the time of the election more than $4,000,000 had been
subscribed by about 19,000 persons, mainly residents in the city of St. Louis or corporations doing
business therein. As soon as the entire $15,000,000 has been .secured a company will be incorpor-
ated, and the promoters have assurances from Washington that foreign nations will be officially
notified and requested to arrange for adequate representation at the Exposition for their country and
its products. A large number of applications for space have been received from both home and
foreign exhibitors, and several bids have been put in for concessions. None of these will be loraially
acted upon until the incorporation of the company in the manner above outlined.

296 Hevlew of Scientific Progress for 1900.
HebirtD of c^citntift'c Jlrdgrtss for 1900*
The closing year of the nineteenth century was as distinguished for scientific research as many of
its predecessors.
ASTRONOMY.
In astronomy, however, there were no new discoveries, with the exception of one or two telescopic
comets, which are now of no scientific importance.
The great Paris telescope mounted on a new principle, as described in a former issue of this work,
was on exhibition, and so far has been a success. Its chief employment will be the photographing of
minute celestial objects which ordinarily defy human vision, even when aided by the best telescopes in
existence
The total solar eclipse of May 28, 1900, was successfully observed throughout the entire path of
totality in this country, and many valuable spectroscopic observations and numerous photographs were
secured, which, when discussed, will no doubt tend to clear up some of the mysteries attending this
interesting phenomenon. For some time past, and for several months to come, the small asteroid Eros
will be the principal object of observation in all the large observatories, both in Europe and this
country. The orbit of this diminutive planet (about 20 miles in diameter) lies partially between that
of Mars and the earth ; indeed, with the exception of the moon, it is our nearest celestial neighbor.
The object in view is to determine the solar parallax, or the sun's distance from the earth— the great
astronomical unit by which we measure the dimensions of our solar system.
A new astronomical observatory has been established in connection with Wellesley College for
Women, in Massachusetts.
A series of experiments on the passage of electricity through rarified gases tends to confirm the
opinion entertained by some astronomers, that the sun's corona — seen only during a total eclipse— is of
el^^ctric origin. A still further confirmation of this is found in the fact that the bright spectroscopic
line of the corona is not represented by any dark line in the solar spectrum, but further research, con-
tinued for a long period, will be required to fully establish the origin and nature of this solar appendage.
CHEMISTRY.
In chemistry several new determinations of the atomic weights of some of the elementary bodies
were made, among which those of iron, barium, uranium, and a few others may be mentioned. A
French chemist claims to have made a discovery of much interest to those engaged in the rearing of
cattle and other domestic animals — viz.: The preservation of animals from the Texas fever, the worst
and most fatal form of parasitic maladies, by means of a vaccine virus to be injected subcutaneously.
Another discovery of great value to divers and those engaged in submarine operations, also by
French chemists, has for its object the regeneration of vitiated air. It is based on the action of
binoxide of sodium Na202, which, being a very unstable compound, parts with or gives up half of its
oxygen, thus reducing it to the ordinary oxide of sodium or NasO, which at once absorbs the cflrbonic
oxide or carbonic acid gas exhaled from the lungs to form common carbonate of sodium. Divers,
miners, and others who have occasion to work in contracted quarters which are soon filled with a
vitiated atmosphere will find this discovery to be of inestimable importance.
PHYSICS.
Researches carried on with the view of determining the very slight changes in the latitude of
places have conducted to the following results:
1.— The motion of the magnetic poles around the geometric poles of the eaith is intimately con-
nected with the variation of the magnetic forces of the earth, and these are in close connection with the
state of solar activity.
2.— This motion of the magnetic poles is then indirectly dependent on the dynamical and chemical
changes taking place on the sun's surface, and the phenomena of the aurorae, the great variation of
terrestrial magnetism, as well as the variation of latitude, are all closely associated with the eleven-
year period of sun-spots.
During the year wireless telegraphy was successfully employed in the South African war and also
at sea, messages having been transmitted 20 miles.
A new miner's lamp has been invented by Prof. Edison. It is claimed for it that by its use colliery
explosions will be impossible. It consists of a primary battery in which the pots, carbons, and all con-
nections are fixed— all contained in a box weighing four and a half pounds, and maintaining a three-
candle power lamp for ten hours at a cost of two cents. No heat is evolved, and it is impossible to
ignite either vapor or gas. If it proves to be what is claimed, it will be one of the most useful inven-
tions of the age and the means of saving many valuable lives.
Aerial and submarine navigation received considerable attention during 1900, but from the very
nature of the elements to be traversed it is not to be expected that anything of much value will ever be
developed from experiments in these lines.
EXPLORATION.
The position of the south magnetic pole of the earth was determined by an exploring part.v which
reached latitude 78° 4.5' South, the highest southern latitude ever attained by man The pole is now located
in latitude 73° 20' South and 1460 East Longitude. At Cape Adare the dip of the magnetic needle was found
to be SB-* 34', or only 3° 26' from the perpendicular, and the variation 56° 2' East. Observations for the
dip and vnriation were carefully made at seven other localities and the maximum dip was found at the
foot of Mount Melbourne to be 88° \%', or lo 58J^' only from the perpendicular. A comparison of
recent observations with those made by Sir John Ross in 1841, shows that in the 59 years the dip has de-
creased by lo 32' at the same place, and it is therefore concluded that the south magnetic polo is now
much farther north and west than it was in 1841.
GEOLOGY.
In no department of scientific research has there been during recent years a greater advance than
in geology. The physical features of Maine, Illinois, Wisconsin, and South Dakota, wrought during the
glacial period, have been carefully examined and mapped out by our Geological Survey. The geological
survey of the Isthmus of Panama, conducted with the view of cutting a canal across it, has recently been
made. This interesting region is founo to be quite free from volcanic and other seismic disturbance : it
is, in fact, situated in a tranquil zone at an equal distance north and south from the lines of disturbance
and is at present the most stable and least menaced region of South America. The depression made use
of by the canal company is not a transverse fracture, as was at one time supposed.
Review of Scientijic Progress for 1900. 297
REVIEW OF SCIENTIFIC PROGRESS FOR 1.900— Continued.
The Canadian Geological Survey has, with its characteristic energy, during the year made known the
physical features of a large portion of the Dominion, especially in the Yukon and Saskatchewan Dis-
tricts. The discovery of gold in the former and of petroleum in the latter has given to these regions a
special importance. The survey employed sixteen field parties in British Columbia, Yukon, Great Slave
Lake, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Quebec, and around Hudson and Ungava Bays. In the Yukon District
the amount of gold obtained from some fifty or sixty five-hundred feet claims in the Klondike region
exceeds J95,000,000. The total amount obtained is not known, but it far exceeds this sum. The
borings for oil in Alberta have reached a depth of 1,840 feet, which is considered to be within 200 feet of
the tar sands which are known to exist at the base of the cretaceous rocks.
A large area of Central Africa, known as Marotseland, about 200,000 square miles in extent, has re-
cently been explored and mapped out by English engineers. The first steam navigation on the Middle
Zambesi, the tracing of the whole course of that mighty river, the discovery of its source, and the
determination of its watershed have just been accomplished.
Under the auspices of the Royal Society of England, an accurate survey has been made of the
mountain range in Equatorial Africa known as the Mountains of the Moon, which are 16,500 feet high in
many parts; as well as a more exact location of Lake Tanganyika, which is shown to lie 50 miles west
of its ascribed position, and Lake Kiva is proved to be a much larger lake than has hitherto been
supposed.
The geology, fauna, and flora of Christmas Island have been examined for the first time. This
tropica) island is unique in many respects. It is situated in the eastern part of the Indian Ocean, 190
miles south of Java, 900 miles northwest of the coast of Australia, and 550 miles east of the atolls of
Cocos and North Keeling. It contains an area of 43 square miles, rises in some places to the height of
1,000 feet above the ocean, and is covered with a dense tropical vegetation. The submarine slopes about
it are so steep that a depth of 1,000 fathoms is found within 2 or 3 miles from its shore, while to the north
a depth of 3,200 fathoms and to the south and southwest one of 3,000 fathoms is found. The island
is evidently the summit of a submarine peak, the base of which rises from a low saddle or bridge which
separates the two abysses named. Its peculiarly isolated position is most striking; its history is also
unique, for, although known to navigators since the middle of the seventeenth century, no one appears
to have explored it until quite recently. It is the only tropical island of any extent that has never been
inhabited by man, either savage or civilized. The fauna and flora are therefore unchanged by the con-
ditions introduced by human life. Geologically considered, the island consists largely of elevated
tertiary limestone ; the central nucleus is made up of compact yellow limestone, very hard, with occa-
sional basalts and trachytes. Dolomitic limestone containing carbonate of magnesia and beds of
phosphate of lime also occur in the most elevated portions. Of the 319 species of animals found there,
about 40 per cent are described as peculiar to it.
AROHiEOLOGY
has received a great impetus from the researches of Prof. Hilprecht in his exploration of the site of
ancient Nippur, in Babylonia, which was lost to human knowledge about the time that Abraham went to
Ur of the Chaldees. This ancient city, whose ruins now lie more than 20 feet beneath the accumulated
sands of ages, was destroyed shortly after the time just referred to, but under what circumstances
ancient writers have never informed us. From the numerous and wonderful things exhumed it is quite
apparent that a tolerably high degree of civilization once existed where now only a desert is found.
In the excavations a building 600 feet long was found 90 feet below the surface sand. It was at least two
stories high and contained numerous cooking and cleaning utensils, ornaments, toys, etc.; two govern-
mental palaces and a portion of the library of the Temple of Nippur, containing thousands of inscribed
tablets which throw a flood of new light on Babylonian and Hebraic history, were also brought to light.
There is not the slightest doubt that this temple library is the one referred to in the tablets found
in the royal library of Nineveh, which dated about 600 B. C, but this earlier library, now for the first
time exhunied, was a ruin in the time of Abraham, and therefore there can be no tablet or cabinet in it
later than 2200 B. C. This is the most remarkable and valuable archaeological discovery of the age, and
was undertaken under the auspices of the University of Pennsylvania, being a continuation of the ex-
plorations under the direction of Prof. Hilprecht in 1888. The expedition was aided by the Turkish
Government, cost about $100,000, and more than 400 men have been employed on it. It is estimated that
it will take at least a hundred years to complete the exploration of this extensive buried city of remote
ages.
Archaeological investigations have also been successfully carried on in Egypt under the directorship
of Prof. Maspero, of the National Museum at Gizeh. In the ruins of Karnak nine of the gigantic columns
of the temple fell and four others threaten to do so. The re-erect;on of these fallen columns and, in
fact, a thorough repair of the whole temple, is now being undertaken under the auspices of the Egyptian
Government. In an adjoining temple several statues, sarcophagi, and o.ther things of a very remote
antiquity have been found at a depth of about 40 feet. Many inscriptions, too, have been unearthed
which, when translated, will considerably extend our knowledge of this ancient land.
MEDICAL SCIENCE.
The Medical Congress at Paris in 1900. at which were nearly seven thousand physicians and surgeons, of
whom nearly five hundred were from this country, disclosed a vast advance in the medical art. The
germ theory of disease received from this body a decided set-back. That microbes are undoubtedly
active agents in the production of many diseases there is no doubt, but it is equally true that they are in
many casss the results and not the causes. Where they have not been demonstrated their presence has
been assumed, and treatment predicated thereon accordingly. Thus theory often takes the place of
observation, and scientific medicine and genuine medical advance suffer as a result. From the discus-
sions in the various sections it was quite apparent that a great advance has been lately made in thoracic
and abdominal surg^^ry. Operations of a formidable character have been performed successfully on the
heart, lungs, stomach, and the appendix vermiformis. The mortality has been nearly 50 per cent on
the whole, which, though large, must nevertheless be regarded as a great achievement in surgical
practice Among the other matters brought out by the Congress were a certain method of diagnosing
typhoid fever in the prodromic stage, the treatment of tuberculosis, of cancer, and other malignant
growths. J. M.
298 Medical and Surgical Progress in the Nineteenth Century.
J^ttrtcal antr .Surgical progress tn tlje NineteenUj (ttntMx^.
(Prepared for The World Almanac by Samuel W. Abbott, M. D., Boston, Mass.*)
To fully present the progress which has been made in medical science during the nineteenth cen-
tury would require a volume. In the following sketch, therefore, the subject will necessarily be con-
densed, and each topic will be treated only in brief.
In general, it may be said that progress in this direction during the nineteenth century has ex-
ceeded iu importance that of all preceding time. At the begmning of the century, the value of medi-
cal education was beginning to be recognized, and a few medical schools had been established in the
largest cities on the Atlantic coast. Medical societies had been organized in two or three States, and
also in some of the large cities, but during the first forty years of the century but little progress or
imiprovement can be said to have been made, either in our own country or in Europe.
VACCINATION.
The beginning of the century opened with the discovery of vaccination. The introduction of this
measure wrought a wonderful change in the prevalence and the mortality of small-pox. The proofs
of this cha)ige consist in the following facts:
1. The difference in the prevalence of small- pox before and after the introduction of vaccination
is verj' great. In several instances in the eghteenth century, small-pox attacked more than half the
entire population in certain cities, but in the greatest epidemic in the nineteenth century (1872-73)
the ratio of those attacked to the whole population was not over 5 per cent.
'2. Comparison of protected and unprotected or partially protected communities. The best illus-
tration of this point is that of the German Government, the most thoroughly vaccinated community
in the world, the law requiring the vaccination of every infant before the age of two j'ears, and the
re vaccination or all pupils in the public schools before the age of twelve j'ears. As a consequence the
deaths from small-pox in Germany are less than one-tenth as numerous as those in the neighboring
countries having less stringent iaws. The deaths which do occur in Germany from this cause are
usually those of unprotected immigrants who have crossed the border from Russia or other countries.
3. The change in mortality at different ages. Before the introduction of vaccination fully 95
per cent of the deaths from small-pox were those of children under ten years of age. But since its
mtroduction this mortality has been very largely transferred to persons in adult life.
To Dr. Benjamin Waterhouse must be credited the introduction of vaccination into New England,
at the beginning of the century, he having obtained a supply of lymph direct from Dr. Jenner. Soon
afterward President Thomas JeflRfrson, through correspondence with Dr. Waterliouse, obtained a
supply of lymph, and to him also belongs the honor of introducing this life-saving measure into the
Southern States.
CHARACTERISTICS OF OLD AND NEW METHODS.
During the years immediately preceding the close of the eighteenth century, very many theories
and so-called systems of medicine had been set up, and as often abandoned, of which the following is
a just comment:
" In looking back over the repeated attempts in the eighteenth centurj' to construct a universal
system of medicine, it is impossible not to regret the waste of brilliant gifts and profound acquire-
ments which they have involved. It was fortunate, however, that the accumulation of positive
knowledge in medicine did not cease.
" While Germany and Scotland, as the chief homes of abstract speculation, gave birth to most of
the theories, progress in objective science was most marked in other countries; in Italy first, and
afterward in England and France.
' ' The characteristic of the modern school is the adoption in medicine of the methods of research
and physical science, and the gradually declining importance attached to theor.v and abstract reason-
ing; hypothe.ses, though not neglected, being used as a means of research rather than as ultimate
conclusions. Its method may, therefore, be called the positive method, "t
VALUABLE DISCOVERIES OF THE CENTURY.
Among the valuable discoveries in medicine and surgery, of the early years of the nineteenth
century, and the phj'sicians to whose researches thej' were mainly due, are the following:
Laennec, the inventor of auscultation, or listening to the sounds pro<iuced in the chest by the
movements of the heart and lungs. The combination of this practice with the earlier disiovery of
Piorry, known as percussion, constitutes what is now termed physical diagnosis, and marked a dis-
tinct advance in the methods of determining the condition of internal organs of the body. Laennec's
principal work upon this subject was published in 1819, and revolutionized the knowledge of diseases
of the chest. His careful examination of these organs after death confirmed the great value of his
discovery.
Other important discoveries and researches of that period were those of Louis upon consumption
and typhoid fever, of Willan upon diseases of the skin, and of Richard liriglit upon diseases of the
kidneys. Surgery in the same period was mainly a.ssociated with the names of .lohn and Charles Bell,
Pott, Amussat, Dieffenbach, Sir Astley Cooper, Civiale, Lisfranc, Velpeau, Malgaigne, and Baron
Larrey, to whom Napoleon left a legacy of 100,000 francs, and said of him: ' ' C'est Phomme le plus
vertueu.x que j'ai counu. ' '
To these may be added in the United States the names of Mott, Warren, Gross, and Shippen.
ANESTHETICS.
Unquestionably the greatest discovery of the nineteenth century in its application to surgery
was that which occurred uear the middle of the period, viz. : The discovery of the power of producing
iasensibility to pain by the use of anaesthetics. The introduction of chloroform, and of ether, for this
purpose by Dr. J. Y. Simpson and others (1846-47), rendered possible the performance of diflicuU
and painful operations, which had hitherto been impracticable, and this led the way to manj'of the
brilliant achievements in surgery which have marked the later years of the period.
Of the great value of this discovery a recent writer says: '"The changes that the discovery has
wrought in the personality of the surgeon, in his hearing, in his methods, andin hiscapahilities,areas
wondrous as the discovery it-self. The operator is undisturbed by the harass of alarms and the
misery of giving pain. He can afford to be leisurely, without fear of' being regarded as timorous. To
the older surgeons everj' tick of the clock on the wall was a mandate for haste, every groan of the
patient a call for hurried action, and he alone did l>est who had the quickest fingers and the hardest

heart. Time now counts for little, and success is no longer to be measured by the beatings of a watch.
The mask of the anaesthetist has blotted out the anguished face of the patient, and the horror of vivi-
section on a fellow man has passed away. ' ' *
Up to the middle of the century, however, if we except the case of the single disease, small-pox, it
cannot be said that much had been accomplished toward diminishing mortality, and consequently
prolonging human life. The science of public hygiene or preventive medicine can scarcely be said
to have existed. It was not until the latter half of the centurj' that the Local Government Board of
England, the Im.perial Board of Health of Germany, the Consulting Committee of Hygiene of France,
and the Boards of Health of the different States of the Union were organized, although a few local
boards existed at an earlier period.
PASTEUR AND KOCH.
The name of Louis Pasteur will always be associated with this period as a benefactor of the human
race. His name stands forth prominently as a bold and successful experimenter in fields hitherto
unexplored. The great advance which his discoveries gave to the science of practical medicine must
be universally recognized, since many of the discoveries relative to the intimate causes of infectious
diseases were made in his laboratory, or under his direction.
Similar honors must be accorded to Dr. Robert Koch, of Berlin, whose investigations relative to
the pathology of tuberculosis and other diseases, and more recently of malarial fever, have added
much to our knowledge of these diseases, and the methods of their propagation and prevention.
ANTISEPTICS IN SURGERY AND OBSTETRICS.
In England no one has accomplished more toward the making of surgical operations safe and
harmless than Joseph Lister. In earlier years the infected hand of the operator often did more harm
than good. But Lister introduced the principles of antiseptics in surgery; or, in other words, he em-
phasized the importance of absolute cleanliness as an element of success in the performance of surgical
operations— cleanliness of apartments, wards, and operating rooms, cleanliness of instruments and
appliances, and personal cleanliness of the>operator, of his attendants and of the nurses. The applica-
tion of this principle has made possible many operations which were once deemed especially hazardous
and unsafe. This is especially true of abdominal, surgery, in which a wonderful advance has been
made within the past twenty years.
The same principle has been applied to the practice of obstetrics, with the effect of diminishing the
rate of mortality in child-birth to a very marked degree wherever the principle has been recognized
in practice.
THE APPLICATION OF NEW INSTRUMENTS.
About the middle of the century the microscope as an aid to practical medicine came into general
use, and every year its value is moie and more fully recognized. The ophthalmoscope, the laryngo-
scope, the clinical thermometer, and the hypodermic syringe are all valuable inventions of this period,
together with multitudes of other appliances of almost equal value.
The laboratory, as a valuable adjunct to the equipment of schools of medicine and the boards of
health of States and cities, is yearly being more fully recognized-
Another substantial addition to the resources of the surgeon is the invention of the skiagraph, by
which he is enabled to determine the existence and location of fractures, of warlike missiles, and other
foreign bodies lodged in the tissues, and of the diseased condition of internal organs.
PREVENTABLE DISEASES.
One of the most important of all the medical facts relating to this period is the development of the
principle that a certain class of diseases is more or less preventable. So far as small- pox and some of
the more decidedly contagious diseases are concerned, this principle had been recognized at an earlier
period, but the intimate cause of contagion was unknown, until the microscope, and the methods of
research employed in modern laboratories, revealed the truth. Bacteriology or the study of minute
organisms has come to the front as an important branch of physical science, and has contributed
greatly to the advancement of knowledge in regard to the spread of infectious diseases. By its aid the
character of certain diseases can now be determined with precision at an earlier stage of the disease
than was formerly possible ; methods can be adopted for their treatment and prevention, and the rel-
ative strength of antiseptics and disinfectants employed for the limitation and destruction of infectious
material can be measured and compared.
ADVANCE IN PUBLIC HYGIENE.
In no department of medicine has there been so decided an advance as in that branch known as
public hygiene or preventive medicine, a department scarcelj' recognized before the middle of the
century, embracing as itdoes the special topics of quarantine, the management and control of infec-
tious diseases, food and drug inspection, examination of water supplies and systems of sewage disposal,
municipal hygiene, school hygiene, industrial hygiene, and the vital statistics of the population.
Since the first organization of a State Board of Health in 1869, nearly every State in the Union has
been provided with a general board of health. Within the last ten years of the century the efficiency
of these boards has been greatly increased and their cooperation with local boards for the promotion
of active sanitary work has been accomplished in a more practical manner than ever before. Health
oraranizRtions have been multiplied, sanitary literature has been distributed among the people, and
active measures have everywhere been taken, especially in the densely crowded districts of large
cities, to prevent the spread of infectious diseases by applying the principles of notification, isolation,
disinfection, vaccination, and general cleanliness. The effect of all these measures has become mani-
fest in a lessened mortality and an increase in the length of human life.
One of the earliest published reports upon this subject was the ninth report of the Privy Council of
Great Britain, in which it was shown that the general mortality, as well as that of certain specified
diseases, had diminished decidedly after the introduction of public works, such as systems of water
supply from pure sources, improved sewerage systems, etc.
In tlie seventeenth and eighteenth centuries the birth rate of populations was high, but the death
rate was also high, and in not a few of the years was it even higher than the birth rate, a circum-
stance which has almost never happened to any civilized community in the last fifty years ormore.
DECREASE IN THE DEATH RATE.
If separate causes of death are considered, we find that surprising changes have taken place, when
former and later periods are compared. In the ' ' Observations on the Bills of Mortality of London, ' '
published by Capt. JohnGraunt in 1665, it appears that the deaths from consumption, for a>period of
twenty years in the middle of the seventeenth century, constituted 19 per cent of the deaths from all

causes in the same period. • Two hundred years later we find from the English tables that the deaths
from consumption constituted only 12. 4 per cent of the total mortality for the five years 1847 to 1851,
and at the close of the century this percentage had fallen still further to 7 7 per cent. Allowing the
figures of Capt Graunt to have been correct, then, the decrease of consumption has continued with
much greater rapidity in the past half century than it had in the previous two centuries. Whatever
errors there may have been in the figures of the seventeenth century, would probably only increase
the contrast.
The influence of this subject on the health of the community is emphasized by the fact that con-
sumption bears niost heavily on the wage-earning class, or age of life, since it attacks chiefly those
who are from fifteen to fortj' years of age, the bread-winners of families.
The modern theory of the infectious character of consumption has become firml}' established
and has resulted in the building of special hospitals or sanatoriums. where this cla,ss can be isolated
from the densely settled districts in which they have lived, and given a chance to recover their health
under improved conditions.
In Massachusetts t it appears that the mortality from consumption has been diminished fully one-
half during the fifty years w^ich have elapsed since 1850.
Typhoid fev'er has also diminished in a very naarked degree in almost direct proportion to the ex-
tent to which pure water supplies have been furnished to the people for domestic use. The death rate
from this cause is scarcely one-third as large as that which prevailed fifty years ago.
The same fact is true of dj'sentery. scarlet fever, and several other infectious diseases, and the
result has been a lessening of the general death rate, and a consequent lengthening of the period of
human life. The improvement has taken place mainly in the younger ages of life, and the diseases in
which there has been an increased mortality are chiefly those of advanced year.s.
The causes of this improvement are undoubtedly to be found in the improved conditions of living,
better measures for the treatment of the sick, and a more intelligent application of the principles oi
public health.
in the case of diphtheria, a notable improvement has taken place in consequence of the treatment
of the disease with antitoxin, which came into general use in 1895. In proof of this, the following
figures are quoted: ' 'In two States, and seven cities combined, having a total population of 4,500,-
000, the fatality from diphtheria in 1894 was 29. 7 per cent of the reported cases, v.hilc in the same
places in 1898 it was only 14. 6 per cent, thus confirming the statement that the diphtheria fatality
has been cut in twain since the general mtroduction of antitoxin treatment. ' 't
Again, the dangers incident to child-birth haverfbeen diminished one-half since the introduction of
improved methods for lying-in women. The death rate of women in child-birth was diminished in
Prussia from a maximum of 9. 8 per 1,000 births in 1872 to 4 per 1,000 in 1891, and similar results
have been observed in this country.§
These facts give promise of a still brighter future in the new centurj' now dawning, when new
achievements in medicine and surgery shall alleviate the sufiPerings of mankind and improve the con-
ditions of his daily life.
* Capt. Graunt expresses his belief that the figures for consumption are too high, certain other
deaths being registered under that head as a matter of convenience, or for the purpose of concealing
their true character. Pp. 45, 46, loc. cit.
t The figures of Massachusetts are employed as an illustration, because it Is the only State having
accurate registration figures for a period of nearly sixty yeai-s.

building to be called "The Hall of Fame for Great Americans." A structure was accordingly
built in the form of a semi-circle. 506 feet long, 15 feet wide, and 170 feet high, connecting the Uni-
vei-sity Hall of Philosophy with the Hall of Languages. Within the colonnade 150 panels, each 2 by
8 feet, are to be placed, to bear the names of Americans deemed the greatest in theii re.spective fields.
Under the rules adopted only persons born on what is now United States territory and who shall
have been dead ten or more years are eligible to be chosen, and they must be selected from fifteen
classes of citizens, to wit: Authors and editors, business men, educators, inventors, mist-ionaries
and e.xplorers, philanthropists and reformers, preachers and theologians, scientists, engineers and
architects, lawyers and judges, musicians, painters and sculptors, physicians and surgeons, rulers
and statesmen, soldiers and sailors, distinguished men and women outside the above classes. Fifty
names are to be inscribed on the tablets at the beginning, and five additional names every fifth vear
tliereafter, until the year 2000, when the 150 inscriptions will be completed. Should there "be a failure
to selfct the entire fifty names at the beginning the vacancies shall be filled in a following j'ear.
The rules prescribed that the Council should invite nominations from the public. Everv nomina-
tion seconded by a member of the University Senate should be submitted to an electorate of one
hundred eminent citizens selected by the Council, each of whom must vote for fiftv of the candidates.
In October, 1900, the University Senate received the ballots of the iudge.s. Of the one hundred
judges selected ninety-seven voted. The number of names which had" been submitted to them was
252. Of these each judge returned a vote for fiftv. The rule required that no candidate receiving
less than 51 votes could be accepted. The returns showed that but 29 candidates received the re-
quired number and were chosen. These were, with the number of votes each received, as follows:
George Wtishington. . . 97 Henry W. Longfellow. 85!Nathaniel Hawthorne. 73 Henrv Ward Beecher. 66

It was decided to select the remaining 21 names of the first fifty in 1902, under the same rules.
All names which received as many as 10 votes on the first trial can be voted for. The same judges
will act. Provision will be made for an additional hall having 30 panels, to contain the names of
foreign-born Americans.

In 1867 and 1869 George Peabody established a fund of $3,500,000, to be devoted to education in
the Southern States of the Union. Unfortunately, $1,380,000 of this amount was In Mississippi and
Florida bonds, which those States repudiated. The fund was placed in the charge and control
of fifteen trustees, of whom Mr. Robert C. Winthrop, of Massachusetts, was the chairman. Mr.
Peabody died in London in 1869. The trustees hold meetings annually, usually in New York. They
fill vacancies caused by death or resignation. But one of the original trustees survives— Ex-Senator
Kvarts. The present trustees are: William M. Evarts, who is President of the board; Chief Justice
Fuller, Firat Vice-President; Rt. Rev. Bishop Whipple. Second Vice-President; Dr. Jabez L. M.
Curry, LL. D., General Agent; Joseph H. Choate, J. Pierpont Morgan, of New York; President
William McKinley, of Ohio; Samuel A. Green, Richard Olney, and George F. Hoar, of Massachusetts;
William Wirt Henry, of Virginia; ex-Mayor William A. Courtenay, of South Carolina; James D.
Porter, of Tennessee; Henderson M. Somerville, of New York; President D. C. Gilman, of Johns
Hopkins Universit3'; George Peabody Wetmore, of Rhode Island; Charles E. Fenner, of Louisiana.
Dr. Curry is general agent of the fund, with headquarters at Washington, D. C. , and has charj^e
«)f the distribution of the fund in the several Southern States. In its earlier history, the chief aim
of the fund was to encourage and secure the establishment of public school sj'stems for the free educa-
tion of all children. That having been accomplished, the income of the fund is now used for the
t raining of teachers through Normal Schools and Teachers' Institutes. At its session in October, 1896,
the board declared it to be inexpedient to close the Trust in February, 1897, the power to do which
was left to its discretion. In the thirty- two years since the organization of the Trust, over $2,669,755
for education has been spent, as the income of the sum left by Mr. Peabody. Mr. J. Pierpont Morgan
is the Treasurer.
^8^ 5ol)n JF» ^Slater iFuntr*
1^1882 Mr. JohnF. Slater, of Connecticut, placed in the hands of trustees the sum of $1,000,000,
for the purpose of " uplifting the latelj' emancipated population of the Southern States and their
posterity. ' ' For this patriotic and munificent gift the thanks of Congress were voted, and a medal was
presented. Neither principal nor income is expended for land or buildings. Education in industries
and the preparation of teachers are promoted in institutions believed to be on a permanent basis. The
board consists of D. C. Gilman, of Johns Hopkins University, as President; Chief Justice Fuller,' as
Vice-President; Morris K. Jesup, as Treasurer; J. L. M. Curry, as Secretary and General Manager,
and Bishops Potter and Galloway, and Messrs. William E. Dodge, William A. Slater, John A. Stew-
art, Alexander E. Orr, and William H. Baldwin, Jr. The fund is a potential agency In working out
the problem of the education of the negro, and over half a million of dollars has already been ex-
pended. By the extraordinary fidelity and financial ability of the treasurer, the fund, while keeping
up annual appropriations, has increased to $1,500,000. Schools established by States, denominations,
and individuals are helped by annual donations. Among the most prominent are the Hampton
Normal and Industrial, the Spelman, the Tuskegee, and schools at Orangeburg, S. C. ; Tongaloo,
Miss.; Marshall, Tex. ; Raleigh, N. C. ; New Orleans, the Meharry Medical College at Nashville, etc.

The American Library As.sociation is a national body, organized in 1876, and incorporated in
1879. Its motto is : " The best reading, for the largest number, at the least cost. ' ' The Association
seeks in every practicable way to develop and .strengthen the public library as an essential part of the
American educational system. It therefore strives by both individual effort and local organization to
stimulate public interest in establishing and improving libraries, and thereby bring the best reading
within the reach of all. The present membership of the Association is over 600 in number, and its
successive annual meetings have been held in various places so as to accommodate all sections of the
United States and Canada.
The npxt conference of the American Library Association, its twenty-third general meeting, is to
be held at Wauke-sha, Wis .earlyin July 1901.

The American Society for the Extension of University Teaching was founderl at Philadelphia in
June, 1890, and incorporated in March, 1892. The present officers of the Society are: President,
Charles A. Brinley; Treasurer, Frederick B. Miles; Secretary, John Nolen. The office is in Phila-
delphia, Pa. The aim of University Extension is:
First— To extend hig^her education to all classes of people.
Second— To extend education through the whole of adult life.
Third— To extend thorough methods of study to subjects of everyday interest.
During the year 1899-1900 the Society arranged for the delivery of 95 courses of lectures at
65 Centres. The course attendance at lectures was 22,065— the largest in the history of the Society.
The attendance at classes was 7,981. The number of courses for 1899-1900, arranged bv States,
showing the extent of the Society's work geographically, was as follows: Pennsylvania, 38; New
York, 33; New Jersey, 20: Maryland, 3: Connecticut, 1. The division by subjects was as follows:
History, 32; Literature, 29; Music and Art, 16; Ethics and Philosophy, 11; Ecoiomics, Political
Economy, and Sociology, 6; Science, 1. Some notion of the constantly widening use that is being
made of the Society's lecturers and of the University Extension system can be bad from the follow-
ing list, which shows the various auspices under which the courses of last year were delivered:
Centres primarily or mainly for teachers, 6; Centres under the control of Women's Clubs, 8; People' s
Institute, New York City (for workingmen), 9 courses; Educational Institutions (Schools, Brooklyn
Institute, etc.), 12 courses; New York City Board of Education ("Free Lectures to the People''^),
17 courses; regular University Extension Centres, 43.
The Society has just completed its tenth year of work. Since its organization there have been
delivered under its auspices 954 courses, comprising 5.643 lectures. The average attendance at each
lecture ha? been 193, and the aggregate attendance 1,080,156. The average annual attendance at
courses is now over 20,000; about 10 per cent of this number pursue the systematic reading and study
recommended by the lecturers.
From Philadelphia the movement has extended into manj' sections of the country, being estab-
lished mainly, howSver, In connection with colleges and universities. The most important work,
outside of that of the general Society in Philadelphia, is carried on under the auspices of the Univer-
sity of Chicaso, the Regents of the University of the State of New York, Rutgers College, New
Brunswick; the University of Wisconsin and in California.
The various University Extension Societies all publish syllabi in connection with their courses.
These contain suggestive outlines of lectures, lists of books, and other matter of interest, and are of
value for guiding home reading and study. Sample syllabi and circulars descriptive of University
Extension can be obtained by addressing John Nolen, Secretary, 111 South Fifteenth Street,
Philadelphia, Pa.

The Chautauqua Assembly was organized in 1874 as the result, of a joint plan of Lewis Miller and
John H. Vincent. It holds annual sessions during July and August at Chautauqua, N. Y. The plan
includes courses' of instruction in language, literature, science, and art, lecture courses, musicales,
recitals, and concerts, and various forms of entertainment and recreation.
The Chautauqua Literary and Scientific Circle, Kate F. Kimball, Cleveland, O. , Executive Secretary,
was organized at Chautauqua in 1878, with the aim of continuing the influence of the Assembly
throughout the year in all parts of the country. Since that time more than two hundred and fifty
thousand members have been enrolled. The Circle aims to promote habits of reading and study iii
history, literature, science, and art, in connection with the routine of daily life. The course seeks to
give ' Hhe college outlook " on the world and life. The essentials of the plan are: A definite course
covering four years, each year's course complete in itself; specified volumes approved by the counsel-
lors, allotment of time by the week and month, a monthly magazine with additional readings and
notes, a membership book with review outlines, and other aid. Individual readers may have all the
privileges, and local circles maybe formed by three or four members. The time required is about
one hour daily for nine months. Certificates are granted to all who complete the course. Seals are
atiixed to the certificates which are granted for collateral and advanced reading. Any one may become
a member of the C. L. S. C. by sending an application, together with 50 cents (the annual fee), to

A Roman Catholic Chautauqua or Summer School was opened at New London, Ct. , in the Sum-
mer of 1892 under the auspices of distinguished clergymen and laymen, and the first meetings were
held from July 30 to August 14. Tne association has since acquired a site at CliflfHaven, near Platts-

This organization is a central council of women, to which all National societies organized for any
purpose whatsoever come to hear what other National societies are doing on other lines. They
counsel together as to any refonn, or movement, in which all might cooperate. It is the purpose to
send a commission to Cuba and Hawaii, to inquire into the conditions of women. The Council has a
Cabinet, and is fashioned on a plan similar to the Senate of the United States. It is self-supporting,
with the aid of patrons. Twenty National societies are represented in the Council; they aggregate a
membershipof 1.200,000 women, the largest representative organization in the world. It is affil-
iated with the International Council of Women.

This organization, incorporated in 1892, is composed of over 2, 700 women' s clubs, having a mem-
bership of 200,000 women in the United States and foreign countries. The purpose of the Federation
is declared in its articles of incorporation to be "to bring into communication with one another the
various women's clubs throughout the world, that they may compare methods of work and become
mutually helpful. Constitutions of clubs applying for membership should show that no sectarianism
or political test is required, and, while the distinctively humanitarian movements may be recognized,
their chief purpose is not philanthropic or technical, but social, literary, artistic, or scientific culture. ' '
Meetings of the Federation are held biennially. There are 30 State federations auxiliary to the General
Federation, and 595 single clubs in forty-one States. Several foreign clubs are members of the Federa-
tion—the Pioneer Club of London, Woman's Club of Bombay, and Educational Club of Ceylon, clubs
in Australia, South America, etc.

332 Theosophy.
(a:i)risttan «Sctcncr»
Mrs. Lauka Lathbof, C. S. D., New York, has prepared the following statement for The
W'OBJLD Almanac of the claims made on behalf of Christian Science:
The revelation of Christian Science came to Rev. Mary Baker Q. Eddy in the j'ear 1866, and its
truth and power were immediately demonstrated by signs following. For thirtj--four years sinners
have been reclaimed, depraved appetites for opium and intoxicating drinks have been destroyed, the
sick have been healed of every disease, includmg insanity; the blind have received their sight, the
deaf their hearing, shortened limbs have been elongated, crooked spines have been straightened, and
law after law of the human mind has been broken. The one great text book of this science is ' ' Science
and Health,' ' with key to the Scriptures, by Mary Baker G. Eddy, supplemented by another book by
the same author called "Miscellaneous Writings." " Science and Health ' ' is now in its two hundred
and first edition and the demand for it is increasing daily. The Christian Science Publishing House
is at 95 Falmouth Street, Boston, Mass., and here are published, besides the two books above men-
tioned, other works by the same author, also "The Christian Science Monthlj' Journal," "The
Christian Science Sentinel," and the " Christian Science Bible Lessons." In the November Journal
for 1900 there were mentioned 3,002 practitioners. 445 regularly organized churches, 134 services
where no church has as yet been organized, and 75 institutes. One hundred and twenty- four of these
practitioners are in Greater New York, and eighty in Manhattan Borough. There are eight regularly
organized churches of this denomination in New York City, three of which own church buildings.
Flourishing churches have been organized in London, England; Paris, France; Dresden. Berlin, and
Hanover, German j% and in Canada, Brazil, and Scotland. Many handsome church edifices have been
built in different cities, and many others are in process of erection. The mother church is located in
Boston, Mass., and those all over the country are its branches. Their services are uniform, consisting of
two meetings on Sunday and one on Wednesday evening. Nosermons are preached by a personal pastor,
but a sermon made up of selections from the Bible and "Science and Health, ' ' with ke.y to the Scrip-
tures, is read by two readers, called the first and second readers. This church is emphatically a heal-
ing church, and many cases of restoration to health have been testified to during tlie past few 3ears,
brought about by attendance on one of these meetings.
Christian Science is demonstrable Christianity. Through the spiritual understanding of the teach-
ings of Christ Jesus, its followers are enabled to obey His command to "heal the sick " and do the
works He and His disciples did. The omnipotence, omnipresence, and omniscience of God are proved
to be true. Christian Science is not mind-cure, as that is popularly understood, because it recognizes
but one mind, God. It is not faith-cure, because it does not perform its wonderful works through
blind faith in a personal god, but through the understanding of man's relation to God. It is not mes-
merism or hypnotism, because it denies absolutely the power of the human mind and human will,
and claims no will but God's. Through recognizing the one mind and man as the reflection of that
mind, it forever establishes the brotherhood of man. It is the perfect salvation from sin disease, and
death Christ Jesus came to bring: In " Rudimental Divine Science," Mrs. Eddy defines Christian
Science " as the law of God, the law of good, interpreting and demonstrating the principle and rule of
eternal harmony."

THE UNIVERSAL BROTHERHOOD.
Thk Universal Brotherhood for the benefit of the people of the earth and all creatures was founded
by Katherine A. Tingley, January 13, 1898, at New York Cit3'. This organization is the outgrowth
and expansion of the Theosophical Society founded by H. P, Blavatskj', W. Q. Judge, and otliers at
New York in 1875 and reorganized under William Q. Judge at its annual convention at Boston, Mass.,
in 1895 The constitution of the Universal Brotherhood was adopted by the Theosophical Society in
Americaat its annual convention held in Chicago February 18,1898, by which act the Theosophical
Society in America became the Literary Department of the Universal Brotherhood.
The Universal Brotherhood, or the Brotherhood of Humanity, declares that brotherhood is a fact
in nature. The principal purpose of the organization is to teach brotherhood, demonstrate that it is a
fact in nature and make it a living power in the life of humanity. Its subsidiary purpose is to study
ancient and modern religion, science, philosophy, and art, to investigate the laws of^nature and the
divine powers in man. It declares in its constitution that every member has a right to believe or dis-
believe in any religious sj'stem or philosophy, each being required to show that tolerance for the
opinions of others which he expects for his own.
There are over 150 lodges of the Universal Brotherhood in the United States and Canada, also
lodges in England, Ireland. Sweden, Holland, France, Germanj', Greece, India, Australia, and
New Zealand. The central office of the organization is at Point Loma. San Diego, Cal.

The following statement of the purposes of the society was prepared for The Wobld Almanac by
an officer of the Union:
The National W. C. T. U. was organized in Cleveland, Ohio, in 1874, and is the sober second thought
of the great woman' s crusade. It is now regularly organized in the forty- five States of the Union, and
in every Territory.
There are about 10. 000 local unions, with a membership and following, including the children s
societies, of about half a million. The W. C. T. U. has forty- four distinct departments of work, presided
over by as many women experts, in the National Society, and in nearly every State, All the States in
the Republic except two have laws requiring the study of scientific temperance in the public schools,
and all these laws were secured by the W. C. T. U. ; also the laws forbidding the sale of tobacco to
minors. The first police matrons and most industrial homes for girls were secured through the efforts
of this society, as were the refuges for erring women. Laws raismg the age of consent and providing
for better protection for women and girls have been enacted by many Legislatures through the
influence of the department for the promotion of social purity.
The World's W. C. T. U. was founded through the influence of Frances E. Willard in 1883. and
already has auxiliaries in more than forty countries and provinces. The white ribbon is the badge
of all the W. C. T. U. members, and is now a familiar emblem in every civilized country.

Boston, Mass. Fresident, Rev. Francis E. Clark, D. D. ; Treasurer, Wm. Shaw; General Secretary,
John Willis Baer.
The first Society of Christian Endeavor was formed February 2, 1881, m the WUliston Church,
Portland, Me., by Rev. F. E. Clark, pastor, for the purpose of training a large number of converts for
the duties of church membership.
Each society is in some local church, and in no sense outside. It exists simply to make the young
people loyal and eflficient members of the Church of Christ. It is the Church training the young. Its
motto is, ' ' For Christ and the Church. ' ' In November, 1900, there were 60, 300 societies, with a
membership of 3,500,000, chiefly in the United States and Canada, and in Australia, Great Britain,
China, India, Japan, and in all missionary lands. It is found in about the same proportions in all
the great evangelical denominations and in all their subdivisions. Wherever it has been established
longest it is most fully indorsed by pastors and churches.
Its essential features are the prayer- meeting pledge, honestly interpreted, the lookout, prayer-
meeting, and social committees, and the consecration meeting. Other committees are optional, and
the constitution is entirely flexible in other points according to the needs of the local church.
The United Society is simply the bureau of information for all the societies. It prints the litera-
ture, supports one general secretary, and is the general headquarters of the work. It levies no taxes,
however, and assumes no authority, but every society manages its own affairs in its own way. It is
supported by the sales of its literature, badges, etc. It is managed by a board of trustees, representing
the great evangelical denominations, the President being Francis E. Clark, D. D. , the founder of the
society; General Secretary, John Willis Baer; Treasurer, William Shaw. The executive committee
of the board of trustees meets quarterly to consult concerning the best interests of the society. The
next international convention will be held in Cincinnati, Ohio, July 4-8, 1901.

The Order of The King' s Daughters and Sons is a religious order of service, composed of thousands
of small circles of men, women, and children united in onefereat organization, that is estimated now
to number over half a million members. It is an inter-denominational order, and its members may
be found in all churches and in almost all nations. It was founded by ten women in New York City,
and has spread over every State in the Union, and has its representatives in Canada, England.
Ireland, Scotland, France, Italy, Germany, India, China, Japan, Turkey in Europe- and in Asia.
Australia, New Zealand, and other countries. Its members are bound individually and collectively to
serve the needv and the suffering, to consider the poor, and to be helpful in good work. Each in-
dividual circle may choose its own field of labor, but cannot escape the obligations of service.
The badge is a small cross of silver, bearing the letters I. H. N. on one side and the date 1886 on
the other, often worn with a knot of purple ribbon. The Order is an incorporated society, of which
this little cross is the seal. Its headquarters are at No. 156 Fifth Avenue, New York City.
Its original circle of ten women, to which have been made some additions, forms now the Central
Council or Executive Board of the Order. The oflflcers of the International Order are members of
this Council. The first meeting of the original circle was held in New York City on January 13. 1886,
It is now fifteen years old, and it ranks among the strongest and most useful societies of the world.
It issues a weekly magazine called The Silver Cross, which is most helpful to the members of the
Order, and takes a high rank among the religious and philanthropic periodicals of the country.

The Order of the Daughters of the King wa.s organized on Easter Evening, 1885. It is desired by its
promoters that a careful distinction shall be made Detween the Daughters of the King and The King's
Daughters. This is the older society, and differs from The King's Daughters in many important
particulars. la the first place, it is more of an order than a society, and is distinctively Episcopal. Its
work is definite, and is ^' for the spread of Christ' s kingdom among young women, ' ' and the ^ ' active
support of the rector's plans in the parish in which the particular chapter may be located. ' ' Its badge
is a cross of silver, a Greek cross fleury, and its mottoes are ' ' Magnanimeter Crucem Sustine ' ' and
' For His Sake. " Its colors are white and blue— white, the old royal color of Israel, and blue, the
color of the Virgin Mary, the ' * blessed daughter of Israel's King, the Mother of the King of Kings. ' '
Its constitution is framed, as far as is possible, in the terms of that of the Brotherhood of St. Andrew,
the work of the two organizations being similar. The officers of the Council are : Presicteni, Mrs; E.
A. Bradley; Vice- Pi-esident, Mrs. E. J.Warner; Secretary, Miss Elizabeth D. Hj^TSon; Treasurer,

The following was prepared for The World Almanac by Mr. John W.Wood, General Secretary;
The Brotherhood of St. Andrew is an organization of men in the Protestant Episcopal Church. Its
sole object is the spread of Christ's kingdom among men. It works under two rules, known as (1) The
Rule oi Prayer: To pray daily for the spread of Christ's kingdom among men, and that Christ's blessing
may be upon the labors of the Brotherhood, and (2) The Rule of Service: To make an earnest effort
each week to bring at least one man within the hearing of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
The Brotherhood started in St. James' Church, Chicago, on St. Andrew's Day, 1883. It takes its
name from the Apostle who, when he had found the Messiah, first found his own brother Simon and
brought him to Jesus. This Brotherhood in St. James' parish was started simply as a parochial organ-
ization, with no thought of its extending beyond the limits of the parish. Its work, however, was so
successful in bringing men to church that attention was called to it. and other Brotherhoods, having
the same objects and the same rules, were formed in other parishes in Chicago and in different parts
of the country. In 1886 there were about thirty- five of these separate Brotherhoods. It then was
proposed to form them into one general Church organization. This was done in 1886. Since that time
the Brotherhood has gone on growing, and at present has spread to all parts of the United States. There
are now eleven hundred and seventy- three active chapters, with a membership of about twelve thousand
men. The Brotherhood idea has also taken root in Canada, and the Brotherhood of St. Andrew in the
Church of England in the Dominion of Canada has been formed, with one hundred and eighty
chapters and two thousand men. A similar organization has been formed in the Scottish Episcopal
Church. Forty chapters have also been formed in Australia, and have been organized into a Brother-
hood of St. Andrew in the Church of England in Australia. June 12, 1896, the Brotherhood of St.
Andrew in the Church of England was formed.
The officers for 1900-1901 are: President. H. D. W. English, 341 Fourth Avenue, Pittsburgh, Pa. ;
Assistant Secretary, Carleton Montgomery, 281 Fourth Avenue, New York ; Ti'easurer, John P. Faure,
281 Fourth Avenue, New York; Editor of St. Andrew's Cross, John W. Wood, 281 Fourth Avenue.
The Secretary will furnish information and literature to any one who may be interested in the work.

The Mormons, or Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, were organized April 6, 1830, with
six members, by Joseph Smith, at Fayette, Seneca County, N. Y. After being driven by mobs from
various places in Missouri, Ohio, and Illinois, they settled at Great Salt Lake, Utah, under the
leadership of Brigham Young, in 1847. He was the first President, and was succeeded on liis death
in 1877 by John Taylor, who was succeeded in 1887 bv Wilford Woodruff, who died in 1898. The
present President is Lorenzo Snow, and he and Brigham Young, Francis M. I,yman, John
Henry Smith, George Teasdale, Heber J. (Jrant, John W Taylor, Marriner W. Merrill, Anthon H.
Lund, Matthias F. Cowley, .\braham O. Woodruff, and Rudger Claw.son constitute the Apostolic
Quorum. The total Church membership is 300,000, and the number of Elders 1,700.
The Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints is a separate body, having its head-
quarters at Lamoni, Iowa. It was organized in 1851, and is presided over bv Joseph Smith, son of
the Prophet. Its enrolled membership is 40,639, and it has 2,200 active ministers.
riip tenets of these two bodies of Mormons were printed in The World Alicanac for 1897,

The Volunteers of America. 345
This is a body of men and women organized in the form of a military force, its object being the
evangelization of the unchurched masses. It has its International Headquarters at 101 Queen Victoria
Street, London, E. C. , England, and the headquarters for the United States at 1'20 West Fourteenth

The Salvation Army, known originally as the Christian Mission, was created at Mile End, London,
July 5, 1865, by the Rev. William Booth, a minister of the "Methodist ISew Connection." The
present name was adopted in 1878. At first treated with a good deal of derision and occa.sionally with
violence from the classes among which it worked, its earnestness and remarkable achievements have
gradually won the respect and encouragement of many of the most prominent divines and laymen of
the evangelical denominations.
At the present time there are 15,300 oflSlcers, composed of men and women whose lives are entirely
given to the work ; 7, 296 corps or societies operating in forty- seven countries and colonies in thirty- four
languages. There are some 2,500,000 meetings held annually out doors and in. There are 15,850
brass bandsmen and 38,871 unpaid local officers, who support themselves and devote their spare time
to the work. The Social Relief Institutions for the poor number 544 and are to be found in nearly all
the great cities of the world, caring daily for about 3 8,000 persons. The Rescue Homes for Fallen
Women number about 100, about 5, 000 girls passing through them annually, and 80 per cent of these
being permanently restored to lives of virtue and usefulness. The number of periodicals printed or
published is fifty-five, with a combined weekly circulation of over a million. The annual rental roll is
over $1,000,000. The amount of property owned by this organization now exceeds $4, 000, 000, and
the annual income is more than $5,000,000. The United States Division of tlie Salvation Army has
to-day 2,577 officers, 730 corps or societies, 27 slum posts, 16 rescue homes, with accommodations for
400 fallen women : 102 food and shelter depots, furnishing 27,000 meals monthly, and providing
nightly beds for 6, 000 of the homeless poor; 5 working- women's hotels, with accommodations for 250
women; 5 salvage brigades for collecting household waste, together with 7 wood and coal yards, fur-
nishing temporary work for 337 unemployed men; 3 farm colonies, and 2 children's homes. Christ-
mas dinners were supplied to 150,000 persons in the great cities of the United States last Christmas,
25,000 persons being fed in Greater New York, where the Madison Square Garden was engaged for
the occasion, and a unique spectacle presented. The organization also has in the United States cavalry
brigades, out- riders' circuits, maternity homes, labor bureaus, women's shelters, and an inquiry
department, which looks up missing friends and relatives. The Farm Colonies represent a new
departure in philanthropy, linking "the landless man to the manless land. " Already some 2,000
acres of land nave been purchased, and 200 men. women, and children settled. The experiment has
been carefully examined by prominent business men and pronounced an unqualified success. Alto-
gether there are 200 social institutions for the poor, under the charge of 400 officers and emploj'es,
accommodating 7,000 persons.
William Booth is the general and commander-in-chief of the forces throughout the world. His head-
quarters are at London. He was born in Nottingham, England, April 10. 1829, and became an
evatigelist at fifteen years of age. He entered the ministry in 1852. He is tbo author of a number of
books, the most celebrated being "In Darkest England and the Way Out." Ballington Booth, the
commander of the Volunteers of America, is his son. The United states commanders are Commander
and Consul Booth- Tucker.
The army numbers, according to the last reports, 1,338 corps and 4,306 officers in Great Britain:
831 corps and 1,527 officers in Australia, and 735 corps and 2,709 officers in the United States. The
organization extends to nearly all the countries of the world.
Kf^t VoluntttvH of America*
Thk Volunteers of America is under the command of Ballington Booth, who is elected by its
Directors as President, and by its members as commauder-m-chief. The national headquarters are at
No. 1 Fourth Avenue, nearly opposite Cooper Institute, New York City. The following statement
has been prepared for The Wobld Almanac in the office of the commander-in-chief;
The Volunteers of America is a philanthropic and religious organization, inaugurated in March,
1896, by Commander and Mrs. Ballington Booth in response to numerous requests on the part of
American citizens. It is organized in military style, having as its model the United States Army, but
in conjunction with military discipline and methods of work it possesses a thoroughly democratic
form of government, having as its ideal the Constitution of the United States of America.
Its adherence to American principles has been further signalized by the movement having been
incorporated in November: 1896. The object of the"" Voluuteei-s is to reach with the Gospel of the
Bible the millions of this and other countries which have hitherto been unreached by any existing
religious organization. The fact is recognized that these untouched masses pervade every .section of
.society, and while those of the lowliest walks of life— the poor, the vicious, the criminal, the drunkard,
and others— will always be the object of the tenderest solicitude of the Volunteers, the teeming thou-
sands of the middle class, and the sinful and godless in even aristocratic circles, will also be confi'onted
with the eternal truths of Divine revelation and the Gospel of full salvation.
When it is remembered that this organization has not had the advantage of time in which to
augment its forces and attain its present dimensions— being only inaugurated on March 9, 1896— not
yet (November 1, 1900) five years old: that its growth has been during a distracting war and
in the midst of political and financial agitation, its friends think they may lay claim to a rise and
progress phenomenal in Christian history in this country The Volunteers are represented in nearly
150 cities and towns in this country. During the nine months between January 1 and September
30, 1,113,683 persons were present at the 3<»,000 Sunday and week-night services held in Volunteer
halls. Reports further show that 1,733.637 individuals were attracted to the 11,532 open-air ser-
vices conducted. This is an annual aggregate attendance of nearly four million persons. In addition
to the many thousands who are fed during Thank.sgivlng, Christmas, and other holiday occasions
homes have been established in a number of the larger cities for housing the poor
The Prison Branch of the work has now organized leagues in thirteen of the leading State prisons,
including nearly 7,000 members, and is in touch with over 17,000 men within the prison walls, and
75 per cent of the 4.500 men who have come out under its influence are living reformed lives.
The Volunteei"s will seek to cooperate with all the existing Evangelical Churches and religious
organizations. To this end the commander-in-chief was ordained a "Presbyter of the Church of
God in general.' The Sacrament of the Holy Communion is administered in the Volunteer meeting
by properly qualified and ordained staff officers at least once a month. The Sacrament of Baptism is
also recognized, but its observance la left perfectly optional with every individual Volunteer.

The Society was organized at Boston, Mass., January 20, 1897, for the special study of the Irish
element in the composition of the American people; to investigate and record the influence of this
element in the upbuilding of the nation, and to collect and publish facts relating to and illustrating
that influence. The Society draws no creed lines, and is non-political. Being an American organiza-
tion in spirit and principle, it greets and welcomes to its ranks Americans of whatever race descent
and of whatever creed who take an interest in the special line of work for which the Society is organ-
ized. The membership roll contains the names of gentlemen of the seventh, eighth, and ninth
American generations. The membership is about 1, OOO. The society issues an annual bound volume
called the *' Jourual, ' ' The annual meeiiug is held in New York City.

This Society was organized in May, 1889, when the first Scotch-Irish Congress was helQ at Colum-
bia, Tenn. It is composed of the people of Ulster descent, residents of the United States and
Canada. Its purpose is declared to be "the preservation of Scotch-Irish history and associations, the
increase and diffusion of knowledge regarding the Scotch-Irish people, the keeping alive of the charac-
teristic qualities and sentiments of the race, the promotion of intelligent patriotism, and the
development of social intercourse and fraternal feeling. ' ' State societies are bemg formed, and the
growth of the organization is expected to be large, as the race is widely extended over the Union, and
particularly in the middle South, where such men as Andrew Jackson, John C. Calhoun, and Sam.
Houston were its types. Membership includes females as well as males. Communications may be

This organization was formed in 1789, being the effect of a popular movement in New York, having
primarily in view a counterweight to the so-called "aristocratic" Society of the Cincinnati. It was
essentially anti- Federalist or democratic in its character, and its chief founder was William Mooney,
an upholsterer and a native-born American of Irish extraction. It took its first title from a noted
ancient wise and friendlychief of the Delaware tribeof Indians, named Tammany, who had, for the want
of abetter subject, been canonized by the soldiers of the Revolution as the American patron saint.
The first meeting was held May 12, 1789. The act of incorporation was passed in 1805. The Grand
Stichem and thirteen Sachems were designed to typify the President and the Governors of the thirteen
original States. William Mooney was the first Grand Sachem. TheSociety is nominally a charitable
and social organization, and is distinct from the General Committee of the Tammany Democracy,
which la a political nrcranizatiOD and cannot use Tammany Hall without the consent of thp Society.

The Society of Colonial Wars was instituted in 1892 to '^perpetuate the memory of these events
and of the men who, in military, naval, and civil positions of high trust and responsibility, by their acts
or counsel assisted in the establishment^ defence, and preservation of the American Colonies, and were
in truth the founders of this nation. With this end in view it seeks to collect and preserve manuscripts,
rolls, and records; to provide suitable commemorations or memorials relating to the American Colonial
period, and to inspire in its members the paternal and patriotic spirit of their forefathers, and in the
community respect and reverence for those whose public services made our freedom and unity possi-
ble. ' ' Eligibility is confined to an adult male descendant of an ancestor who fought in battle under
Colonial authority, from the settlement of Jamestown, Va. , in 1607, to the battle of Lexington, in
1775, or who served as Governor, Deputy-Governor, Lieutenant-Governor, Member of the Council, or
as a military, naval, or marine officer in the service of the Colonies, or under the banner of Great Britain,
or was conspicuous in military, official, or legislative life during that period.

of the nation, and to exemplify and teach in all later generations their spirit of wise patriotism, to
the end that we may loyally advance the purpose for which they struggled. ' '

The historic and patriotic Order of the Cincinnati was founded by the
American and French officers at the cantonments of the Continental army on
the Hudson at the close of hostilities in the War of the Revolution for American
Independence in Maj% 1783.
In forming the society it was declared that, * ' To perpetuate, therefore, as
well the remembrance of this vast event as the mutual friendships which have
been formed under the pressure of common danger, and, in many instances,
cemented by the blood of the parties, the officei-s of the American army do
hereby, in the most solemn manner, associate, constitute, and combine them-
selves into one Society of Friends, to endure as long as they shall endure, or any
of their eldest male posterity, and in failure thereof the collateral branches
who mav be judged worthy of becoming its supporters and members. ' '
For convenience, thirteen' State societies were formed, and one in France, under the direct
patronage of Louis XVI. Upon the roll of original members appeared the names of all the great
historic military and naval characters of the Revolution, and upon the roll of honorary members,
elected for their own lives only, appeared many of the signers of the Declaration of Independence.
THE RIGHT TO MEMBERSHIP.
All Continental officers who had served with honor and resigned after three years' service as
officers, or who had been rendered supernumerary and honorably discharged, in one of the several
reductions of the American army, or who had continued to the end of the war, and all French ofhcers
who had served in the cooperating army under Count d'Estaing, or auxiliary army under Count de
Rochambeau, and held or attained the rank of colonel for such services, or who had commanded a
French fleet or ship of war on the American coast, were entitled to become original members, and
upon doing so were required tc contribute a month's pay.
STATE SOCIETIES,
There are nine active State societies— viz. , those of Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut
(revived 1893). New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Marj'land, Virginia, and South Carolina,
and the one in France, which was dispersed at the Reign of Terror in 1793, is being re-established.
There were originally thirteen State societies, corresponding to the number of States at the close
of the Revolutionary War. Several of these became dormant in the early part of the nineteenth cen-
tury, but all these are now revived and reorganized, and those of New Hampshire, Delaware, North
Carolina, and Georgia have been provisionally recognized, and may be restored to the general society
at its next triennial meeting.
Membership descends to the eldest lineal male descendant, if judged worthy, and, in failure of
direct male descent, to male descendants through intervening female descendants.
The general society is composed of the general officers and five delegates from each State society,
and meets triennially. In 1854 it ruled that proper descendants of Revolutionary officers who were
entitled to original membership, but who never could avail themselves of it, are qualified for hereditary
membership, if found worthy, on due application.

The Military Order of Foreign Wars of the United States was instituted in the City of New York,
December 27, 1894, by veterans and descendants of veterans of one or more of the five foreign wars
which the United States had been engaged in, to wit: The War of the Revolution, the War with
Tripoli, the War of 1812, the Mexican war, and the War with Spain, "to perpetuate the names and
meir .y of brave and loyal men who took part in establishing and maintaming the principles of the
Govi^rument" in said wars, and "to preserve records and documents relating to said wars, and to
celebrate the anniversaries of historic events connected therewith." Since the establishment of the
order the United States has fought its fifth foreign war. By an amendment to the constitution all
American officers who participated in the war with Spain are rendered eligible to membership as
veteran companions.
Members are entitled "companions, " and are either "veteran companions" or "hereditary com-
paniona ' ' The former are commissioned officers of the army, navy, or marine corps of the United
States who participated in any of the foreign wars of the United States. The latter are direct lineal
descendants, in the male line only, of commissioned officers who served honorably in any of the said
wars. Commanderies may be established in each of the StateS; and State commanderies now exist in

nificent Memorial Hall at West Point, and charged it with the perpetuation of his Biographical
History of the Graduates of the Academy.

derson, of Sumter fame, in the office of Dr. Horace Webster, West Point, 1818, President of the
College of the City of New York. General Sylvanus Thayer, ' ' the Father of the Military Academy,' '

honor, integrity, valor, and other noble attributes of true Southern character. (3) To instruct and
instill into the descendants of the people of the South a proper respect for and pride in the glorious war
history, with a veneration and love for the deeds of their forefathers which have created such a

achievements of their ancestors. All with the view of furnishing authentic information from which a

UNITED STATES HOME FOR REGULAR ARMY SOLDIERS.
The United States Soldiers' Home in the District of Columbia receives and maintains discharged
soldiers of the regular army. All soldiers who have served twenty yeare as enlisted men in the army
(including volunteer service, if any), and all soldiers of less than twenty years service who have in-
curred such disability, by wounds, disea.se, or injuries in the tine of duty while in the regular army ^ as
unfits them for further service, are entitled to the benefits of the Home.
A pensioner who enters the Home may assign his pension, or any part of it, to hischild, wife, or parent,
by filing written notice with the agent who pays him. If not so assigned, it is drawn by the treasurer
of the Home and held in trust for the pensioner, to whom it is paid in such sums as the commissioners
deem proper while he is an inmate of the Home, the balance being paid in full when he takes his dis-
charge and leaves the Home.
Inmates are subject to the Rules and Articles of War, the same as soldiers in the army They

CONDITIONS OF SERVICE AND AVAILABLE STRENGTH OF POWERS.
Military sei-vice throughout Europe and in Japan is founded on general principles after the Ger-
man system. They vary only in length of the different terms of service for the several different
classes of soldiery. As a rule all youug men between the ages of 21 and 45 who are physically fit
are enrolled for military service and are compelled to spend a certain amount of time in the regular
or active forces, and another amount of time in varying classes of reserves, while in time of war all
are liable to be called on. The first period of .service is with the active forces, the second with a first
reserve called in Germany the Active Army reserve, the bird with what is there called the Land-
wehr, and the fourth with the Landsturm. The first three classes may be called on for service out-
side the native country; the last class is only called out for service in the native country, when it is
threatened by invasion close at home.
360 The Arnced Strength of Europe.
THE ARMED STRENGTH OF EUROPE— Cb/i^iHUCd.
ACSTRiA-HuNGARY— The registered number of young men attaining the age of militarj' service
the past year was 346,931. Out of this number, the number drawn lor service was 192,645, the rest
being excused for physical or mental or moral deformity, or other good reason. Of the number
drawn for service, only 141,000 were actually required, while the remainder were placed in the re-
serves, or credited with having served their first service. The obligatory service commences on the
firstday of January of the year that a young man attains his twenty-first birthday. The first three
yearaaie with the colors, the next seven in active army reserve, the following two in the Landwehr,
and the remaining time until he is forty-five years old in the Landsturm.
Germany— The total number of young men registered in 1900 was 467,854, out of which
287,368 were required to fill the annual contingent or active army ranks. There were also 11.650
volunteers, who under German law are required to serve but one year in active army, except in war.
The remainder of the- time is served in one of the reserves. Liability begins with the age of seventeen
with volunteers, but with age of twenty-one in others, and the time of service is until the end of the
forty-fifth year. This liability is termed "wehrpflicht" and is divided into two classes termed re-
spectively "dienstpflicht " or service liability, and "landsturmpflicht" or landsturm liability. The
time is two years with the colors, then there is leave of absence for five years during which the soldier
is called out'for two ti-ainings of eight weeks each; then come five j'ears in the second oan of the
Landwehr, and the remainder of the time is spent in the Landsturm. The two years' system, how-
ever, has been decided to be not long enough to thoroughly drill the soldier so as to make of him the
perfect machine required by the (ierman system. It is expected that a longer time with the colors
will soon be made obligatory on all except the one- year volunteers. In the German army the staff
is a close but very flexible arrangement, by which, through constant details from staff to line, and line
to staff, all parts of th&army are in constant communication and touch with each other, and through
actual knowledge of the wants of the other, work in harmony and sympathy and for the good of the
whole. Those officers who show the greatest aptitude for particular duties only are, after a lapse of
years, given work or employment permanently in their .special fields.
Great Britaix— Besides the regular army there are four classes of reserve or auxiliary forces—
namely, the Militia, the Yeomanry Cavalry, the Volunteer C'orps,and the Army Reserve Force. The
regular army is .supplied by recruiting.
France— The total number of men in 1900 liable to serve was 324, 538, or somewhat less than in
the preceding year. Of this number 2 ',313 were found physically unfit, others were adjourned for
following years, and some joined the colonial army. The actual number drafted into the home army
was 206,648. Of this number, 64. 281 joined for one year, and the rest for two and three years. There
were also in 1900, 33,322 re-enlistments for three, four, and five years from among those who had
completed active army service, and 417 sergeants were permitted to re-engage. Liability begins
with the twentieth year and lasts until the end of the forty-fifth year. It is divided into three years
with the colors or active army, ten years with the active army reserve, six in the territorial army re-
serve, and six in the territorial army, which in itself is a reserve answering to the Landwehr.
Italy— Service in Italj' is for eighteen years, the first two being with the active army, the follow-
ing ten years on leave, but requiring thirty days service each year with the active army, and the re-
maining six are in the reserve answering to the Landsturm. The past year 264,568 men were regis-
tered, and of this number only 90, 568 were drawn, the rest being excused or postponed. Exemptions
of former years swelled the number for the active army to 142,817 more.
Russia— In Russia the first five years are spent with the colors or active army, and the next
thirteen in the reserve. There are two bans to this reserve, and all those registered but not drawn or
exempted are placed in second banfrom the beginning of time of service. They spend all their eighteen
years in this except in war, when they are drawn to fill the ranks of the active army. All other men
in the empire between the ages of twenty-one and forty-five constitute a militia which is called out
for the first three years in home training. The entire numberregistered the past year was 1,086, 412,
the greatest number ever recorded. Of this number, 335,400 were required for the active army, the
rest oeing divided as explained.
Switzerland— In this mountain country the military system is radically different from that of
the other powers of Europe. Switzerland' sstanding army is made up practically of about 140,000
men. but the number actually seen on duty does not exceed one-tenth of this. The armj' i)roper
may be likened more to the United States National Guard than anything else, except that the force is
a national one and not one under the jurisdiction of the several cantons. A certain amount of train-
ing each year under regular officers is required, so that it may be said the entire country is made up
of soldiers, since all men physically able are drilled, and well drilled. Greece is about to give up the
German system and substitute the Swiss.
ASIATIC NATIONS.
Japan"— The part taken by Japan in the Chinese troubles and contact of Japanese troops with Eu-
ropeans and Americans has awakened widespread interest in the military strength of the Asiatic
island empire. The reorganization of the Japanese army was decreed only in March, 1896, and pro-
vided that by 1903 it should be completed. It is practically completed to-day and consists of three
commands and thirteen divisions of fifty-two three-battalion regiments of infantry, thirteen regi-
ments of five squadrons each of cavalry, thirteen regiments of field artillery with one hundred and
seventeen batteries, .seven battalions and six half battalions of engineers, twenty-six service com-
panies, and one railway battalion. Japan can put into the field to-daj' 140,000 men, with three huu-
dre(¥aud seventy-three guns, and carry them all to China and yet have as many more in reserve in
Japan. This is a very important factor, with which all European nations must reckon in pro.secuting
war in China.
China— Not even the best-informed Chinaman can state the actual strength of the Chinese force
to-day. It maj" be approximated only by referring to the strength and organization of the Chinese
armya year ago, or just before the war between the Boxers and the foreign nations broke out. This
army is divided into three lines of defence— the regulars, reserves under arms, and reserves between
sixteen and sixty j-ears of age. The fighting troops and the reserves under arms constitute what is
termed the Imperial standing army, whose strength is estimated as 60,000 cavalry and 850.000 in-
fantry and artillery. Major K. J. Marshall, a well-informed British officer, makes the following
estimate of the number and disposition of the forces: Manchurian field force, 50.000; Manchurian
irresrulars,20,000; fighting braves, 125,000; Chien-Chun ordisciplined troops, 10 ,0(X); total. 205,000.
These constitute the active army. The reserves under arms he sums upas: Pekiugfield force, 13, 000;
Banner troops in Peking. 75,000; Banner troops in provinces, 95,000; Luh-Yingor Green Standard
troops, 506,000; total, 689.000. The Chine.se armament is also an unknown quantity, although
China is known to possess many modern firearms, including rapid-fire guns.

SMOKELESS POWDERS.
But little progress nas oeen made since 1899 in adopting smokeless powders for army use In the
navy gun-cotton is extensively used, and in the army thorite has given satisfaction to many. Until a
thoroughly safe high explosive that is smokeless can be found that can be fired with entire .safety
from service guns and under service conditions, it is safe to say that the use of such powders as are at
hand will be confined entirely to the smaller rapid-fire guns, to submarine mines, etc. The inventor
of the Gathman gun claims that he has a smokeless powder thai meets all the conditions, and the ex-
periments to be conducted with it soon will be watched with great interest.

Rifles and Small Arms.
i^iflts antr .Small ^rrns*
Lyddite, which figured so extensively in the British- Boer War. is a high explosive named from a
small town iu Kent, England, and is composed of picric acid brought into a dense state by fusion.
Picric acid is obtained bj' tlie action of nitric acid on plienol or carbolic acid. Its destructive effect in
a shell is eleven times that of powder, and it kills more by air concussion than flying fragments.
There was little change in small arms in 1900. fn the United States the Navy has finally given
up the small-calibre arm adopted three years ago, and taken in its place the Krag of the Army. In
fact, the more this gun is used the better it is liked and the better it seems. It had a splendid oppor-
tunity of comparison with all the best foreign arms in the Chinese expedition. It more than held its
own. while, strange to say, the American field gun was pronounced by foreigners to be the best field
gun there. The contingents sent by the various powers to China were all armed with different rifles.
Xotwo had the same pattern of small arms or even of equipments. Among other points noticed, it
was found that the Austrians carried the lieaviest weapons (very nearly 9 lbs. 4}^ oz. ). Next came
the Swiss and Portuguese rifles, while the weapons of the British. French, Russian, and Danish
troops were about the same in weight. The Spanish rifle was much lighter, but the lightest of all
were the German and Italian guns, nearly 1 lb. 11 oz. less than the Austrian.
The Surgeon- General's office has compiled some very interesting figures the past two years re-
garding the wounds made by modern rifles. From these it appears that the wounds made by the
Mauser rifle are far less deadly than those made by the larger sized bullet used in the Civil War.
This less deadly character of the injuries inflicted is manifested by excluding the killed and regarding
only the wounded. During the past two years there were 4,333 men wounded in battle who came
under the surgeons' care, and only 259 of them died. This was 6 per cent. During the Civil War
14. 3 per cent of the wounded died. Even taking into account the progress made in modern surgical
science, there is still a large balance in favor of the smaller bullet. And this holds good whatever the
nature of the wound. The shock of the smaller-calibre bullet is so much less than that of the larger
lead bullet that it has generally been supposed not to have a good stopping power. The shock is much
less, but it still has sufficient power to arrest a man when he is hit. During the Santiago campaign,
all reports go to show, whenever the men were hit they fell back at once. This is so of all civilized
troops, and therefore it maybe said that the modern bullet has all the power necessary for war
purposes.

Estimates of area and present population are by Whitaker, and in some cases by the ' ■■ Statesman- s
Year- Book," except for British Africa and the late accessions there, which are corrected by Raven-
stein's figures. The entire population of the empire, according to the estimates of the "Statesman's
Year-Book." is 385,280,140. and the total area, 11,712,170. To this should be added the recent
conquests in South Africa. (See Transvaal and Orange River Colonies above. ) The East Indian
possessions extend over a territory larger than the continent of Europe without Russia; but the North
American possessions are greater still, and, inclusive of Hudson's Bay and the great lakes, have a
larger area than the whole of Europe. British Africa and Australasia are the next possessions in size.

Sakiry, §10,CKX).
The Dominion of Canada has an area of 3, 653, 946 (including the Hudson Bay ) square miles,
and comprises one- sixteenth of tlie land surface of the globe. It is the largest of all the Britisli
possessions, Australia, the next in size, containing 2,944, 6'28 square miles. The Government
of Canada is Federal, centred at Ottawa, which city is the capital of the Dominion, while the
provinces and the Northwest Territories have their' respective local Legislatures. The head of
the Federal Government is the Governor- General, appt^nted by the Queen of Great Britain,
and holding office for five years, his salary being paid by the Dorninion Government.
The Lieutenant- Governors of the several provinces are appointed by the Federal Government
for a term of five years. The Legislatures are elected by the people of each province. Tlie
highest Court in the Dominion is the Supreme Court, composed of a Chief Justice and live Judges,
each of whom receives a salary of §7. (XX) per annum, except the Chief Justice, who is paid an
additional §1,0(K). From the' decisions of this Court the only tribunal to Avhicli appeal can be
made is to the Judicial Committee of the Imperial Privy Council of Great Britain. The only
other Federal Court is the Exchequer Court, presided over by a single Judge, for trying cases
connected with the revenue. All others are of a provincial character, limited to jurisdiction in
their respective provinces only.

382 The Australian Federation.
5ri)c Australian JFctrttation,
The first day of the year 1901 inaugurated '* The CommoQwealth of Australia,' ' •which is the
title chosen ny thp people themselves for the Federated States ot Australia. The uiovemeut for uuioii
among the colonies occupying the coutiuent involved, as might have been expected, a good niani'
difficullies. owing to differences in their present position, populatiou, and apparent interests, and it
was hardly hoped, even by the warmest advocates of the change, that all the self -governnag colonies
would agree lo join in the first instance. The strength of the national seutiment, however, proved
strong enough to overcome all objections, and after many tlelays the plan of federation finally
adopted by the Convention, which satat intervals during three years, wa.-; accented bv all the colonies.
The scheme was embodied by the Convention in a Constitution act, whicti was submitted to the
British Parliament, and was passed, with one or two verbal alterations, in the month of April. 1900
The (-ommonwealth of Australia will thus be the first federation ot British colonies to be governed
under a Constitution entirely framed by its own people.
The States forming the new Commonwealth are six in number. Five of these occupy the
continental island itself, and the sixth is the island of Tasmania, which lies off the southern end
of The great island, separated from it only by a narrow strait. The States have the peculiarit.y that
notonly are they in very different stages of development at present, but they are al.so very diti'erent
m area and situation, and as the Constitution makes no provision for any subdivision hereafter, thej'
are likely always to present the uovel feature of a federation of States few in number, but very difier
eiitin population and resources. At present the smaller States on the continent are the wealthiest
and by far the most populous, vvhile the two largest are the least developed and most scantily peopled.
Ot these the state of Westralia— hitherto known as West Australia— is the largest, with an area
now ascertained to extend to 975. 920 square miles, vvhile South Australia, which comes next to it,
contains 903,690 square miles. These two great States— each of which is nearly four times as largo
a.sTexas— at present contain a population of uo more tliau 600, OOO persons of European race, though
they embrace not very far short of two- thirds the area of the whole continent. Queensland, the thirtl
of the great States, embraces two- thirds of the remaining laud of the country, containing an estimated
population of not more than 550,000 white inhabitants. The remainder of the four millions of settlers
on the mauilaud of Australia occupy the two smallest of the coptinental States— New South Wales
and Victor . -and even a larger proportion of the developed and realized wealth of the new federa-
tion isut present confined to those divisions.
PLAN OF FEDERATION.
The great disparity in area on the one hand and in population on the other presented the chief
difficulty in the way of any scheme of federation likely to be accepted by all parts of the country, and
were the chief cause of the protracted negotiations, which have practically extended over eight years
from the time when the first Federal Convention sat in Sydney. The difficulty was overcome at last
by large concessions made by the more populous and developed colonies in favor of the great un-
developed areas, possessing as yet comparatively little populatiou. The chief of these consisted in
agreeing to an equal State representation in the Senate and to the securing to the State Legislatures
the entire control of the vast landed estate within their boundaries. On this basis, together .with
siiecial financial concessions to the poorer States for a limited term of years, and with the concession
totlie senior colony of New South Wales that the capital of the Commonwealth should be located
.somewhere within her boundaries, an agreement was finally reached which ail the colonies have
accepted after it had been submitted to the vote of the people bj' way of the referendum.
The Constitution of the new federation thus agreed upon more nearly resembles Ihat of this coun-
try than any other, but it has also some not unimportant differences. The Commonwealth govern-
ment will he in the hands of a Governor-General, who will be appointed from time to time by the
Briii.sh Cabinet to represent the Sovereign, but who will— like the Sovereign herself in England— take
no active part in the work of administration, but will be guided solely by the advice of a Cabinet, or
Ministry, consisting of members of the Federal Parliameut who are "able to command a majority of
votes in the Chambers, particularly the Chamber of Representatives, which will possess the control of
the finances of the Commonwealth.
The legislative power will rest with the Parliament, consisting of two Chambers— a Senate of
thirty-six members, six from each State without reference lo populatiou; and a Represeutative
Chamber, consisting of seventy-two members, to be elected every three years bjMhe people of the
States, in proportion to their jjopulation as ascertained at each census. The Senators are to be electeu
by the people of their respective States, not as here by the State Legislatures and will hold office for
six years, two of thorn, retiring every second year.' The control ot taxation and finance is to reside in
the Representative Chamber, the Senate being empowered to pass or reject, but not to amend anj'
act dealing with edher the raising or appropriating of public money, as is the case with the two
Houses of the British Parliament. The most novel provision of the legislative arrangement is a pro-
vision that ill case a deadlock on any measure shall arise between the two Chambers, which shall
continue uflei a new election of the Represeutative Chamber, it shall be brought to au end by a joint
sitting of tlie members of the two Chambers, a simple majority of the votes ot the whole number
present deciding.
POWERS OF PARLIAMENT AND THE EXECUTIVE.
The powers of the Federal Executive and Parliament are strictly confined, as in this country, to
the subjects specified iu the Constitution act^ all others remaining under the control of the States.
The subjects sui)mittod to Federal control are in some respects more extensive than in this country,
embracing as they do the sole right to control all armed forces whatever, the marriage laws and those
of inheritance, labor and arbitration laws, and others likely to aflfect widel.v all parts of the Common-
A'ealth. Oil the other hand some ma ttei"? controlled by Federal authority in America are to be left
to the States in Australia. Among these perhaps the most important are the absolute control of the
public lands, which form a eiganiic asset in the larger States and a very large one as yet in all- also
tue management and control of all navigable rivers and waterwaj'S that lie entirely within the
boundaries of a single State, which is the case with most of the Australian rivei-s.
The Federal Government alone will have the right to impose customs or excise taxation, and the
postal and telegraph systems will al.so fall into its liands As the public debts of the various States,
however, will remain as at present State liabilities, provision is made for the return to the various
Slates of all the revenue thus raised which is not required for Federal purposes, in proportion as it is
contributed by each. The rail roadSniV. the country, whict are all State property, remain a.s at present
understate control, sii.. iect to the provision that ihey may be used by the Federal authorities at any
time wheL needed for the couveyance of troop-j or for other defence purposes.

The Bureau of the American Republics at Washington was established under the recommendation
of the late International American Conference, for the prompt collection and distribution of commer-
cial information concerning the American Republics. It publishes translations of the tariils of the
countries of Latin America reduced to the United States equivalent's; also haudbooks of the.se coun-
tries, and a monthly bulletin containingthe latest information respecting their resources, commerce,
and general features. Replies are also furnished to inquiries in relation to the commercial and other
affairs of the countries, and items of news giving recent laws of general interest, development ot rail-
ways, agriculture, mines, manufactures, shipping, etc., are given to the press. The Bureau is su.s-
tained bv contributions from the several American Republics in proportiou to their populatiou. The
Chief Clerk is Williams C. Fox. '_

•• Eg.yptaud the Egyptian .Soudan, althougn nominally under the suzerainty of Turkey, are really
controlled by Great BriiHin, and It is only a matter of time as to when they will be incorporated iulo
the British Empire. .Adding Egypt and the Soudan to the Empire would increase the figures above
given to 2.985,220 square miles and 47.952 877 population.
The remaining territory of Africa unoccupied is a part of the great Desert of Sahara and the Inde-
pendent States of Abyssinia and Liberia. Even this terri^- —y. except the last, is destined to pass
under the power of the Enropean.s. The tabular figures are .lom "The Statesman's Year-Iiook. ' '
Egyptian (British) and French territory in the Soudan, according to British claims, touch along
the line of the 27th degree of latitude. Prior to the revolt of the Mabdi in 1882 Egvpi claimed Darfar,
Kordofan, .Senaar, Taka, the Equatorial Province, and the Bahr-el-Ghazal Province. Though au
thorityoverthe.se was lost by the success of the Mahdi, Egypt did not relinquish her claim, and her
full authority was resumed by the victories of General Kitchener in 1898. The French were disposed
to dispute these claims and assert a right to territory as far east as the banks of the Nile, thus covering
the Bahr (^l-Qhazal Province. Hence the appearance of Major Marchand at Fashoda on the Nile,
many miles south of Khartoum. But this position the French have now abandoned.

The present Constitution of Mexico bears date February 5, 1857, with subsequent amend-
ments. By its terms Mexico is considered a Federative Republic, divided into Stiites, nineteen at
the outset.'but at present twenty- seven in number, Mith two Territories and one Federal District,
each having a right to manage* its own local attairs, while the Mhole are bound together in one \
body politic by fundamental and constitutional laws. The ix)wers of the Federal Government i
are divided into three branches— the legislative, executive, and judicial. The legislative power \
is vested in a Congress, consisting of a House of Representatives and a Senate ; the executive '
in a President, and the judicial in Federal Courts. Representatives elected by tlie suffrage of all j
male adults, at the rate of one member for 40,000 inliabitants, hold their places for two years. |
The qualifications requisite are to be twenty- five years of age and a resident in the State." The
Senate consists of two members from each State, of at least thirty years of age, who hold their
places for four years. Senators are elected indirectly, half of them being renewed every two
years. The menibers of both Houses receive salaries of S3, 000 each a year.
The President is elected by electors popularly cho.sen in a general election, holds office for
four years, and, according to the last Amendment of the Constitution, there will be no prohibition
to his re-election. In case of his sudden disability, the Secretary of Foreign Affairs officiates
in his place ; in case of leave, death, or permanent disability, Congress elects a pro tempore Pres-
ident, who acts until, in either of the two last cases, a President is elected by the people. Con-
gress has to meet annually from September 16 to December 15, and from April 1 to May 31, and
a permanent committee of both Houses sits during the recesses.

The Federal revenue collected during the fiscal year ended June 30, 1900. exceeded
$63,000, (KK3; disbursements were about S56, 000, 000 ; value of imports year ended June 30,
1899, §50, 869, 194 ; value of exports, §148, 453, 834.

*The next decennial census of the British Empire takes place this year (1901)
The statistics of population of largest cities of the earth other than those of the United States have been taken mainly from the
"Statesman's Year-Book " for 1900.
NoTK. — The population of Chinese cities other than Canton, Peking, and Shanghai is omitted, because reports respectinff it are
utterly untrustworthy. There are forty or more Chinese cities whose inhabitants are numbered by rumor at from 200,000 to
1,000,000 each, but no ' "ncial censuses have ever been taken; and Setting aside consideration of the Oriental tendency to exaggera-
tion, there is reason to believe that the estimate:, of population in many instances covered districts of country bearing the same
names as the cities, instead of detinite mnnicipalitijs.

Jlopulation of t\\t sauitetr .States
BY THE CENSUS OF 1 9O0, COMPARED WITH THE POPULATION OF 1890.
(From the Bulletin of the Director of the Census, November, 1900. )
Thk following statement gives the population of the United States in detail for each State and
organized Territory and for Alaska and Hawaii, as finallj' revised. The figures purporting to give thp
number of "persons in the service of the United States stationed abroad " include an estimat'
population of 14, -lOO for certain military organizations and naval vessels stationed abroad, principLti..
in the Philippines, for which the returns have not yet been received.
The total population of the United States in 1900, as shown by the accompanying statement, is
76,304, 99, of which 74.610,523 persons are contained in the 45 States, representing the pnpulation
to be used for apportionment purposes. The total population of the country includes 134,158 Indians
not taxed, of whom 44,617 are found in certain of the States, and which are to be deducted from the
population of such States for the purpose of determining the apportionment of Representatives.
The total population in 1890, with which the aggregate population at the present census should be
compared, is 03.06 ,756, comprising 62,622,250 persons enumerated in the States and organized
Territories at that census, 32,052 persons in Alaska, 180,182 Indians and other perrons in the Indian
Territory, 145,282 Indians and other persons on Indian reservations, etc., and 89,990 persons in
Hawaii, this last named figure being derived from the census of the Hawaiian Islands taken as of
December 28, 1890. Taking this population for 1890 as a basis, there has been a gain in population of
13,2 >5, 043 during the ten years from 1890 to 1900, representing an increase of very nearly 21 percent.
No provision was made by the census act tor the enumeration of the inhabitants of Porto Rico,
but a census for that island, taken as of October 16, 1899. under the direction of the War Depart-
ment, showed a population of 953,243.

laud (Republican), President, whose term will expire May2, 1903; John W. Ross (Democrat), whose
term will al.so expire May 2, 1903; Captain Lansing H. Beach (non-partisan). Corps of Engineers,

Washington had a municipal government from 1802 to 1871 By an act approved February 21,

Commissioners substituted. The temporary form of government was succeeded by the present form
of government July 1,1878. Congress makes all laws for the District, but hasintrusted to the Commis-
sioners authority to make police regulations, building regulations, plumbing regulations, and other reg-
ulations of a municipal nature.

398 United States Naval Academy at Annapolis.
^anitctr states military ^catrcmj) at Witnt i^oiut.
Each Senator, Congressional District, and Territory— also the District of Columbia— is entitled to
have one cadet at the Acadenij'. There are also thirty appointments at large, speciallj' conferred by
thePresident of the United States. Tlie number of students is thus limited to four hundred and eighty-
one. At present there are three extra cadets at the Academy, who were authorized by Congress to
enter it at their own expense from Venezuehi, Costa Rica, and Ecuador.
Appointraents are usually made one year in advance of date of admission, by the Secretary of
War, upon the nomination of thf Senator or Representative. These nominations may either be made
after competitive examination or {riven direct, at the option of the Representative. The Representa-
tive may nominate a legally' qualified second candidate, to be designated the alternate. The alternate
will receive from the War Depai'tmeut a letter of appointment, and will be examined with the regular
appointee, and if duly qualified will be admitted tothe Academy in the event of the failure of the nrinci-
pal to pass the prescribed ureliminary examinations. Appointees to the Military Academy must be
between seventeen and twenty-two years of age, free from any infirmity wliich may render them
unfit for military service, and able to pass a careful examination in reading, writing, orthography,
arithmetic, grammar, geography, and history of the United States.
The coui-se of instruction, which is quite thorough, requires four years, and is largely mathemati-
cal and professional. The principal subjects taughtare mathematics, French, drawing, drill regulations
of all arms of the service, natural and experimental philosophy, chemistry, chemical physics, miner-
alogy, geology, and electricity, history, international, constitutional, and military law, Spanish, and
civil and military engineering, and art and science of war, and ordinance and gunnery. About one-
fourth of those appointed usually fail to pass the preliminary examinations, and but little over one-hall
the remainder are finally graduated. The discipline is very strict— even more so than in the army— and
the enforcement of penalties for offences is inflexible rather than severe. Academic duties begin
September 1 and continue until June 1. Examinations are held in each January and June, and cadets
found proficient in studies and correct in conduct are given the particular standing in their class to
which their merits entitle them, while those cadets deficient in either conduct or stud les are discharged.
From about the middle of June to the end of August cadets live in camp, engaged only in military
duties and receiving practical military instruction. Cadets are allowed but one leave of absence
during the four years' course, and this is granted at the expiration of the first two yeai-s. The pay of a
cadet is $540 per year, and, with proper economy, is sufficient for his support. The number of
students at the Academy is usually about four hundred and twenty-five.
Upon graduating cadets are commissioned as second lieutenants in the United States Army. The
whole number of graduates from 1802 to 1900, inclusive, has been three thousand nine hundred and
ninety-three (3,993). It is virtually absolutely necessary for a person seeking an appointment to
apply to his Senator or Memberof Congress. The appointments by the President are usually restricted
to sons of officers of the army and navy, who. by rea.son of their shifting residence, due to the neces-
sities of the service, find it next to impossible to obtain an appointment otherwise.
The Academy was established by act of Congress in 1802. An annual Board of Visitors is appointed, i
seven being appointed by the President of the United states, two by the President of the Senate, and \
three by the Speaker of the House of Representatives. They visit the Academy in June, and are pres- ,
ent at the concluding exercises of the graduating class of tliat year. The Superintendent is Colonel j
Albert L. Mills, United States Army, and the military and academic staff consists of seventy-two
persons. First Lieutenant William C. Rivers, First Cavalry, is adjutant. !
The two oldest living graduates of the Military Academy are Joseph Smith Bryce, of New York,
1829, and Thomas A. Morris, of Indianapolis, 1834.
^nitrti states Kabal ilcatrrms at Annapolis, !
There are allowed at the Academv one naval cadet for each Member or Delegate of the j
United States House of Representatives, one for the District of Columbia, and ten at large. The \
appointment of cadets at large and for the District of Columbia is made by the President. The
Secretary of the Navy, a.s soon after March 5 iu each year as possible, must notify in writing t
each Member and Delegate of the House of Representatives of any vacancy that may exist in his !
district. The nomination of a candidate to fill the vacancy is made, on the recommendation of |
the Member or Delegate, by the Secretary. Candidates must be actual residents of the districts
from which they are nominated.
The course of naval cadets is six years, the la.st two of which are spent at sea. Candidates
at the time of their examination for admission must be not under fifteen nor over twenty years
of age and physically sound, well formed, and of robust constitution. They are examined
mentally by the academic board iu reading, writing, spelling, arithmetic, geography, English
grammar, United States history, world's history, algebra through quadratic equations, and
plane geometry (five Ixioks of Chauvenet' s Greometry, or an equivalent). Deficiency in any one
of these subjects may be sufficient to insure the rejection of the candidate. They enter the
I Academv immediately after passing the prescribed examinations, and are reqtiired to sign articles
binding'themselves to serve in tlie United States Navy eight years (including the time of proba-
! tion at the Naval Academy), unless sooner discharged. The pay of a naval cadet is §500 a year,
beginning at the date of admission.
Appointments to fill all vacancies that may occur during a year in the lower grades of the
Line oi the Navy and of the Marine Corps will be made from the naval cadets, graduates of the
year, at the conclusion of their six years' course, in the order of merit a.s determined by the
Academic Board of the Naval Academy.
At least fifteen appointments from such graduates are made each year. Surplus graduates who
do not receive appointments are given a certificate of graduation, an honorable discharge, and
one year' s sea pav.
the Academv was founded in 1815 bv the Hon. George Bancroft, Secretary of the Navy iu
the Administration of President Polk. It was formally opened October 10 of that year, with
Commander Franklin Buchanan as Superintendent. Dtiring the Civil War it was removed from
Annapolis, Md. , to Nevvix)rt, R. I. , but was returned to the former place in 1865. It is under i
the direct supervision of the Bureau of Navigation, Navy Department. Commander Richard
Wainwright, United States Navy, is the present Superintendent.

LIEUTENANT-GENERAL IN THE ARMY OF THE UNITED STATES, LAWS UNDER
WHICH CONFERRED. AND PERIODS OF SERVICE UNDER SUCH COMMISSIONS.
(Prepared in the Office of tbe Adjutant-General of the Army.)
1. George Washington: Elected General (and Commander-in-Chief) of the Continental Army by
the (IJontiuental Congress, June 16, and commissioned by that Congress accordingly, June 16. 1775,
and accepted the commission, orally, before the Congress on the same date. Kesigned December
23. 1783,
Nominated to the Senate, July 2, confirmed July 3, and commissioned by President John Adams,
July 4, 1798. to be Lieutenant-General (and Commander-in-Chief) ' ' of all the armies raised or to be
raised \n the service of the United States," under authority conferred by an act of Congress, May 28,
1798. Washington held this office till his death, December 14, 1799.
An act of March 3. 1799, authorized the appointment of a Commander of the Army as "General
ot the Armies of the United States, ' ' and provided that when such appointment should be once made
the office and title of Lieutenant-(5eneral should be abolished. Washington was offered this
appointment, but declined— on the ground, 5tis3aid, that the title of ''General of the Armies of the
United States ' ' would conflict with the constitutional prerogatives of the President as ' ' Commander-
in-Chief of the Army."
2. Major-General Winfield Scott: Commissioned Lieutenant-General, by brevet, March 7, 1855,
to rank from March 29, 1847, under act of Congress of February 15, 1855. on account of his services
in the War with Mexico. The act provided that the grade Lieutenant-General, created by it, shonld
' ' cease and be of no effect ' • when once filled and vacated. General Scott held this brevet rank on the
active list to November 1, 3861, and on the retired list from that date until his death. May 27, 1866.
3. Major-General Ulys.ses S. Grant: Commissioned Lieutenant-General, March 2, 1864, under
act of Congress of February 29, 1864, reviving that grade and authorizing appointment thereto from
among major-generals in service "distinguished for courage, skill, and ability," and commisioned
General, July 25. 1866, under act of Congress approved that date, reviving the grade of General and
authorizing appointments thereto from among distinguished officers in service oi one to command the
armies of the United States. Neither the act of 1864 nor that of 1866 fixed any limit for the
expiration of the grades of Lieutenant-General or General. General Gi'ant vacated as General when
he assumed the office of President, March 4,1869. He was appointed General, on the retired list,
March 3, 1885. by special act of Congress of that date, and died July 23, 1885.
4. Major-General William T.Sherman: Appointed Lieutenant-General, July 25, 1866, vice Grant,
appointed General ; and appointed General, March 4, 1869, in place of Grant, when the latter assumed
the office of President. General Sherman held the rank of Gfeneral on the active list until retired,
February 8. 1884, and on the retired list from that date until his death, February 14, 1891. He
received the full pay and allowances of his rank after his retirement, under act of Congress of
June 30. 1882.
5. Major-General Philip H. Sheridan: Appointed Lieutenant-General, March 4, 1869, vice
Sherman, appointed General.
An act of July 15, 1870, abolished the offices of general and lieutenant-general when they should
become vacant; hence when General Sherman was rfetired, in 1885, no appointment was made in his
place; but the grade of general, on the active list, was revived by the act of June 1, 1888, for
General Sheridan, who was then at the point of death, and to continue during his life time only, and
the grade of lieutenant-general was abolished General Sheridan was appointed General, ;June 1,
1888, and died August 5, 1888.
6. Major-General John M. Sohofield: Appointed Lieutejant-General, February 5, 1895. under an
act of Congress of that date, which abolished the grade when it "shall have been once filled and
became vacant." General Schofield was retired September 29, 1896. and now holds the rank of
Lieutenant-General on the retired list.
7. Major-General Nelson A. Miles, the senior Major-General, was assigned to the command of
the army upon the retirement of Lieutenant-General Schofield. The ranK of Lieutenant-General
was conferred upon (]teneral Miles by an act of Congress of June 6, 1900, which provides: "That
the senior major-general of the line commanding the army shall have the rank, pay, and allowances
of a lieutenant-general."

PORTO RICO.
At the election for a Commissioner to the United
States in 1900 the candidates wore Manuel R.
Gatell, representing the Federal (Democratic)
party, and Frederico Degetau, representing the
Republican partj'. The vote by districts was as
follows:
District. Gatell. Degetan.
San Juan 34 12,299
Arecibo 1 1,050
Aguadilla 31 9,397

Ponce 25 21,145
C4uayama 8 4.546
Humacao 6 1,614
Total 148 58,367
The Legislature is unanimously Republican in
both branches. The Federals (who indorsed Mr.
Brvan for Pre.sident) just prior to the election de-
cided to make no contest, hence their apparent
small vote.

KcU) ¥oi*1fe (KJamijer of (Commerce.
Organized April 5, 1768. Incorporated by George III. March 13, 1770. ReiiKorporated by
the State of New York April 13, 1784. Its object is indicated in the following words of the original
charter: "Sensible that numberless inestimable benefits have accrued to mankind from commerce;
that they are, in proportion to their greater or lesser application to it, more or less opulent and potent
in all countries; and that the enlargement of trade will vastly increase the value of rea.1 estates as well
as the general opulence of our said colony, '• and *' to carry into execution, encourage, and promote,
by just and lawful ways and means, such measures as will tend to promote and extend just and" law-
ful commerce.' •
During the decade 1760 1770, according to Lord Sheflield's Observations, the avei'age yearly value
of American Colonial imports from Great Britain was £1,763,409, and of exports to the same country
£1 044,591. Up to the evacuation of the city by the British and its occupation bj' the Americans, on
construction of the Erie Canal, and in 1784 petitioned the Kew York Legislature (which so ordered)
that duties should be levied under a specific instead of an ad valorem tariff— a sj'stem of which the
Chamber of Commerce has ever since been the constant advocate.
As a society the Chamber of Commerce consists of fifteen hundred regular members. Initiatory
fees have varied between the sum of ten Spanish dollars, required in 1770, and $25, which is now
demanded from every accepted candidate.
The offices and meeting rooms are at 32 Nassau Street, New York. Officers; President, Morris K.

What Other People Say About " The Worlcir 537
WHAT OTHER PEOPLE SAY ABOUT "THE WORLD."
Baltimore Newt : The New York Wobld awards Mr. Croker the campaign booby prize, and the
country approves the award.
Mexico (Mo.) Xecf^er . Tne New York Wokld's peace petition) is a wonderful document. The pe-
tition is signed by prominent officeholders and distinguished citizens from all over the country, and
was presented to the President of the United States, asking him to interfere between the English and
Boers. The movement that culminated in the petition is an interesting part of the record of 1899, and
a striking evidence of the devotion of the American people to the principles incorporated in the action
of the Peace Congress at The Hague.
New York Press. Most heartily do we approve the demand of the New York World that the
thieves who have looted the Third Avenue Railroad Company be indicted, tried, and sent to State
prison There has, as The World says, "been a colossal steal— the greatest New York has known."
Boston Ghbe : "When are the thieving accomplices of Defaulter Carter to be brought to trial ? '
asks the New York World. When will the New York World stop asking inconvenient questions?
Cooperstown Freeman's Journal . The New York WORLD has the well-deserved credit of being
mainly instrumental in driving Brockway out of the Elmira Reformatory, where political and per-
sonal influence kept him for years after his brutal government should have insured his removal.
Wilmington (Bel.) Every Evening : Mr. Bryan was alluded to in the New York World a week ago
as the one man known in our history who has determined to be a candidate only on a condition that
shall make his election absolutely impossible.
New York Cominercial Among the many recent fine local features in the colored supplement of
the Sunday World was its first page yesterday, picturing and describing the proposed new Custom-
House, which will be the most imposing building on perhaps the most appropriate site in the city.
Macon (Ga.) Telegraph: It is with good reason that the New York World points to the achieve-
ments of Miss Anderson, Miss Terry, Miss Rehan, Mme. Modjeska, and of the younger class Miss Mar-
lowe, Miss Russell, and Miss Adams, and many others who might be named, in proof of the contention
that immoral plays are not necessary for the display of the powers of a great actress.
Binghamton Republican : The people have already brought in a verdict based on Mayor Van
Wyck's own confession or statement in The World's Supreme Court summary examination — the most
amazing confession of moral unfitness to hold an office of public trust ever made by the Mayor of a
great city.
Cleveland Plain Dealer ■ The admissions of Mayor Van Wyckin The World's suit regardmg his
ownership of stock in the American Ice Company, and his bundling explanation of how he became
possessed of it, required no footnotes or explanation. Every man of average intelligence understands
the entire transaction. The Mayor's removal from office would not add to his ignominy.
Cleveland World . Mayor Van Wyck is convicted by his own sworn testimony. The World has
smoked him out !
Hartford Times ■ Van Wyck got his ice stock because he was Mayor of New York, and his testi-
mony in The World's suit shows that the arrangement practically was to make him a gift of $250,000.
Plainfield Press : The World has put its convictions and information to a most practical use in
haling the Mayor and other officials of the city to the Supreme Court, where they have been subjected
to an examination that has put them in a most unenviable light.
Boston Transcript : Such a contest as The World has waged has this effect at least : It makes
future tyranny by any possible combination of ice monopolists improbable.
Indianapolis Netcs . The New York Ice Trust has reduced the price of its ice from 60 cents to 40
cents. The World's use of Publicity had much to do with it.
Newark News : Mayor Van Wyck's testimony in The World's court proceedings indicates that he
mistook the ice wagon for the band wagon.
Philadelphia North American : The Ice Trust was very discriminating in its benevolence and gave
no hints to people not in a position to be useful to itself. Mayor Van Wyck's own testimony fully
answers the question : " Where did he get his stock? " and leaves the way open for Gov. Roosevelt to
take action on The World's petition for his removal.
Philadelphia Press . The testimony of Robert A. Van Wyck, Mayor, given on Saturday in the
Supreme Court proceedings instituted by The World, robs every intelligent man of any lingering hope
he may have had that Mayor Van Wyck would be able to offer an explanation of the charges against
him which would agree with the facts and at the same time prove the Mayor guiltless of legal and
moral wrong-doing.
Philadelphia North American : In invoking the aid of the Supreme Court, under the anti-Tweed
law, in exposing the operations of the Ice Trust and the complicity of city officials in the conspiracy of
extortion, the New York World has struck an effective blow at the monopoly. The New York World
deserves the gratitude of the plundered people of New--York for coming to their aid with so effective
a weapon for the smashing of the allied iniquities.
Knoxville (Tenn.) Sentinel . The World has not spared the tremendous influence of Publicity, and
has never done better work than in this Ice Trust fight.
St. Louis Post-Dispatch : But Publicity was the weapon in the people's hands, with which the Trust
had failed to reckon. Through Publicity the entire workings of the Trust were exposed and the Trust
prices smashed by The World.
Pittsburgh Chronicle : Whether the disclosures through The World's action lead to the removal of
the Mayor of New York from his office or not, the fight against the Ice Trust will at least be productive
of a permanent low price for the commodity. Thousands of poor people in the metropolis may not be
deprived of an essential to existence.
Haverhill Gazette : The American Ice Company may reorganize to its heart's content, but no legal
disinfectants can make it smell sweeter. It is a victim of Publicity, as The World said.
Baltimore American : The World's Supreme Court proceedings showed that both the Ice Trust
and the official Tammany stockholders were so greedy thht they ruined themselves.
Chattanooga Times : It is in a very ungentlemanly manner that the New York World deals with
the Ice "Trust officials and their Tammany partners.
Cooperstown Freeman's Journal : The bold and aggressive and successful fight made by The World
on the Ice Trust is one of the most noted on record. The WORLD is strong with the people because it
acts in all such matters in their interest.

MAKE YOUR OLD WAGON NEW.
Our Prices are Right. Ottr Wheels are Guaranteed.
Our principal business is making steei wheels, with straight or staggered spokes,
for vehicles of all kinds, especially farm wagons. We make the wide-tired lo^v-
down wlieels, which have done so much to make farm hauling easy. The
cheapest way to get a low wagon is to buy a set of low wheels to fit your old run-
ning gear. We make wheels in all sizes and guarantee material and workmanship.
They run easily on soft ground without tracking; enabling you to haul heavier
loads and to load more easily. Tire and spokes are made of the best wrought
steel and are guaranteed not to break in the coldest weather, or on the rockiest
road. Send for special prices. We warrant both wagon and wheels for one year.
Any defect in material or workmanship will be replaced free of charge.
ELECTRIC HANDY WAGON.
This cut shows the Electric Handy Wagon,
guaranteed in material and workmanship to be
the equal of any high-priced wagon in the world.
Axles of the best seasoned hickory ; bolsters,
coupling pole, and tongue of oak ; stakes of oak
bound with inch flat iron. Wheels fire our
famous Electric steel wheels (from 22 in. to 54
in, high). The skeins are 3^x10 and will easily
carry 2 tons. The hounds are made of 1% angle
steel, are stronger than ordinary wooden ones
and more firmly attached to axles. Shafts or tongue as desired. You won't find .% better wagon any-
where. Send for prices and testimonials.
Feed is fuel to the animal economy. It is burned
up to supply internal heat If it is heated (cooked)
before it goes into the animal's stomach it saves that much fuel (feed). ELECTRIC
FEED COOKERS save feed, save money, and produce better results-
Made of the best cast iron, with steel linings; boiler made of extra heavy galvanized
steel. Capacity 25 to 100 gallons. Address

The Catholic Summer School
of America.
CHAMPLAIN ASSEMBLY, CLIFF HAVEN, N. Y„
Three Miles Below PIattsburg» on Lake Champlain.
Chartered by the Board of Regents of the State of New York.
President— Rev. M. J. LAVELLE, New York.
Vice-President— Right Rev. Mgr. JAS. F. LOUGHLIN, Philadelphia.
First Vice-President— Hon. JOHN B. RILEY, Plattsburg, N. Y.
Secretary— Mr. WARREN E. MOSHER, New York.
Treasurer— Rev. JOHN F. MULLANY, Syracuse, N. Y.
Not a school in the ordinary sense of the word, requiring steady attendance in class, under
rigid rules, during many hours each day, but a place where, amid the delights of natural beauty,
the pleasures of social intercourse, and the accompaniment of light, healthful recreation, the
Catholic people of the United States may learn to know one another better, to realize their
strength, to enlarge the scope of their education, and to get correct views upon important ques-
tions incident to their religion, their country, and their times. The programme in Philosophy,
History, Science, and Literature is first class in every respect, and capable of satisfying the most
ambitious students. On the other hand, as attendance at all or any part of it is not obligatory,
it aids those who wish simply summer rest by relieving and excluding the monotony that ordi-
narily accompanies life at summer resorts.
The Social Life Is Charming in the Extreme,
OPEN FROM JUNE I5TH TO SEPT. I5TH.
Location on the west bank of Lake Champlain, mth the Green Mountains on the one side
and the Adirondack Mountains on the other; within easj^ reach of Au Sable Chasm, Montreal,
Quebec, the St. Lawrence River, and the Thousand Islands. Temperature rarely reaches 80
degrees ; does not exceed 85 degrees when 100 degrees are registered in New York, Philadel-
phia, and Boston. Large sandy and perfectly safe bathing beach. Fine boating and fishing.
Excellent cycling. Perfectly laid out golf links, tennis and croquet courts Baseball diamond
and bowling alley.
The recreation programme embraces all the athletic games and sports and covers everj'
weekday afternoon of the session, and is under the direct supervision of Mr. .Tames E. Sullivan,
President of the A. A. U. and the Knickerbocker Athletic Club. Medals and banners are offered
for each event.
The College Camp, under the personal supervision of Dr. John Talbot Smith, himself an
enthusiastic camper since his boyhood, offers special attractions to boys both old and young.
The total cost of living at the Summer School is as follows •
Camp, $9.00 Per Week. Cottages and Central Dining Hall,
$i0.50 Per Week. The Champlain Club, $17.00 Per Week.
The only extra expense is the Assembly fee of §1. 50 per week, or $10. 00 for the entire ses-
sion, which is paid by all adults, and which admits to all lectures and scheduled entertainments
and recreations.
The accommodations and table are much superior to anything to be found elsewhere, except
at much higher prices.

The South American Perfectos,
the famous tropical stock cigar which at one-half
to ono-third competins prices is driving the ex-
pensive Havana goods out of the market in one of
the largest American cities— Chicago.
Within a year we hope to supply several of the
large cities. One market absorbs them now as
fast as we can possibly produce them.
For SI we will send to your address a special box
of Lucke's blended "imports," in order to make
them more widely known.
These goods are a new departure in this country.
They are made of three different growths of leaf
raised near the Equator, combined into one cigar,
the blended flavor producing a purely natural ef-
fect in the richest and most delicious taste and
aroma.
They are mild and fine tasting, yet fulsome in
satisfying power. A small partof the tobacco is
strong. This is introduced for the same purpose
as Perique is introduced into the finest pipe to-
baccos—to give an "edge" to the flavor. Another
part is cooling, and the third gives a "body" and
a free, even burning quality which, with the other
two tobaccos, produces a cigar that to any smoker
is at once plainly a forward step in cigar quality,
distinctly an improvement upon even the costliest
Vuelta goods of the past, for "Imports" lack the
sting and the dspressing after-effect of any pre-
viously known i ich class of cigars.
They are positively a surpassing value and a
generous 10 cents' worth, at lowest comparison.
And in this way they cost you but four cents each.
Smoke three or four, and if you don't indorse all
we say we'll refund your money in full.

is a Home Remedy — a noble UNGUENT for external applica-
tion. It is founded upon the principle that Suffering, Prema-
ture Decline, and Premature Death are the direct, and indirect,
results of
DORMANT CIRCULATION;
that rescue can only be assured by its re-establishment by
directly charging the controlling battery cells with an ele=
ment imitating the nerve=force prepared for that
purpose by Nature. This imitative element is our faithful
NERVE=FORCE, and it will positively re-establish the
most sluggish CIRCULATION to normal. It has won for us
r many Gold Medals for life-saving in the past eighteen years,
J We do not, however, advertise it- but our NERVE-FORCE
Journal, which explains its every detail. We send this publication free, in plain
envelope, to as many addresses as you may send us.
We appeal especially to the "chronically ill" who are wearied and discouraged
with "stomach dosing" as a means of warfare against Disease; to sufferers threatened
with cruel operations; to men and women who, in spite of heroic efforts for cure,
feel themselves steadily declining; to men and women who are victims of either
sedntary employment or excessive ''brain exhaustion," and to those who have been
cast aside as *' incurable."

^^Hot Water Heatingf^ Steam and Gas Fitting-^
ACETYLENE GAS,
MOW GENKRATED, HOW USED."
"ACETYLENE GAS— How Generated and How Used," is
written for the express purpose of putting the user in close touch with the pres-
ent state of the art. The value of A.cetyleno Gas as an illuminant is discussed
both from a commercial and spectroscopic point of view.
Its methods of manipulation are taken up in detail, and from every class of
generator on the market a typical one is selected and thoroughly described.
The merits of the various methods of generating Acetylene are touched upon
and sot before the reader in a thoroughly disinterested way The good points
of each method are mentioned, but the defects are also noted. It includes a set
of insurance rules compiled from the best codes, and tables of cost of materials
and apparatus relative to Acetylene generation and consumption are given in
sufficient detail to enable a prospective user to rapidly reduce his plans to a
dollars and cents basis.
Up to the present time most of the literature on this subject has been compiled either by those who
are directly interested in the genei-ation of Acetylene or by those who are advocates of gas or electricity.
Disinterested information on this subject has been hard to obtain, and it is therefore believed that this
work will be of great value to prospective users. No words are wasted on extravagant claims for or
against Acetylene, or in favor of or against any method of generation or consumption. Everything ex-
plained in the most simple lam;uage, so that it will be impossible to misunderstand anything.
This book is especially useful to Plnmbers, Steam Fitters, Architects, Bnilders, Appren-
tices, and Honselsolder."", as it contains all modern methods and practical information of all the
principles involved in the construction of STEAM. HOT "WATER, ACETYLENE GAS plants, and how
to properly do GAS FITTING. The illustrations show the latest and best appliances used for all sys-
tems. Complete plans for different kinds of buildings, with regular working drawings. How to set up
a steam and hot water plant, from the foundation of the boiler to the bronzing of the radiators and the
stsrting of the fire. How to properly estimate on Steam and Hot Water Work. GAS FITTING
explained in all its branches, from the tapping of the main to the burners in the house. 320 pages, 12
mo., cloth. Price, $2.00.

The life boat gives protection and safety from the dangers of the
sea. A policy in the Equitable Life Assurance Society gives protection
and safety from the perils of life. Protects your family if you die.
Helps provide for yourself if you live. Here is an actual result to a
living policy holder.
THE LARGEST ENDOWHENT EVER PAID.
Fifteen years ago Mr. George Gooderham, of Toronto, took out 15-
year Endowment policy No. 289,421 for ;^ 100 ,000 in the Equitable Life
Assurance Society, paying an annual premium of $8,382. Now his policy
has matured and shows the following results :
1. Cash, - = ---- $150,847
2. Paid=up Assurance, - = 210,000
3. Annuity for Life, - - - 20,320
At the same time Mr. Gooderham took out a policy of the same
kind for the same amount and with the same premium in another com-
pany, the cash return on which was $15,000 less than on the Equitable
policy.
Here is what Mr. Gooderham says of his results :
*' I have always been a strong advocate of Endowment Insurance, and about the time I "
" took your policy for ^100,000 1 placed 3b400,OOo of Endowment policies on my life"
"in eight different cornpanies. Ot this amount $310,000 has already matured. I"
" have lived to see the result and to know wh^t it means. These results realized by "
"the Equitable are larger and more satisfactory than any result ever realized by me"
" on any of my policies which have matured to date. 1 may say that they are quite"
" satisfactory, and that no company has ever done so well for me."
If you would like to know what the result of an Endowment would
have been in your own case fill out and mail the following coupon :

comfort ami pl'-asure derived froir a light that, nccordinfj to co<i'tltss users, has abs-tlutely no de-

It is the only oil that
cleans out the residue
and prevents rust on guD
barrels. It never gums, It
never thickens. It is ideal
tor all oiling purposes,
and as a furniture polish
beats all preparations
you can buy. No acid, no
gi-ease. Produces a beau-
tiful, lasting lustre and
leaves no stains to soil
the clothes. You can keep
house without it, but you
won't if you know It.

liNTSCH SYSTEM CAR AND BUOY LIGHTING. This Com-
pany controls in the United States and Canada the celebrated
Pintsch System of Car and Buoy Lighting. It is economical, safe,
etficient, and approved by railway managers and the Lighthouse
Board of the United States, and has received the highest awards
for excellence at the World's Expositions at Moscow, Vienna, St.
Petersburg, London, Berlin, Paris, Chicago, and Atlanta. 105,000
cars, 4,500 locomotives, and 1,150 buoys are equipped with
this light.
jTREET RAILWAY LINES. This system of lighting has also
been adopted by the Manhattan Elevated R. R., the Broadway and
Third Avenue cable lines of New York; the North and West
Chicago, and the Chicago City Railway lines of Chicago; the
Olive Street Railway of St. Louis ; the Columbus Central Railway
of Kansas City, and the Denver cable lines of Denver, Col.

Simplicity student lamp.
Patented in United States and foreign countries
A One-Hundred Candle-Power Light for
SIX HOURS' service, ONE CENT.
These Lamps have been approved by the
National Board of Underwriters.
THE illuminant is gasoline stored m compartments in the
lighting fixtures, and on passing through a heating
chamber reaches the orifice in the form of gas which burns
with a smokeless flame under a mantel heated to incan-
descence. The principle has been applied to a student lamp
for stand use, an illustration of which appears herewith.
The construction is such as to give a brilliant light with a
very small consumption of gasoline, and at a low cost for
lighting as compared with other methods. The light is not
affected by temperature, and will burn equally well in Sum-
mer or Winter. The lamp uses 740 stove gasoline. There is
no odor like the old gasoline stove. Send for descriptive
circular and mention Wokld Almanac.

WHY YOU SHOULD HAVE OUR MACHINE
it is safe ; it is simple; it is cheap and durable ; it is perfectly
automatic ; it makes gas only as used ; it gives a steady,
white light, and no heat; it gives no smoke or odor when burning; it will not
asphyxiate — certainly a cardinal point ; in use over 4 years without repairs;
it is a mechanical construction ; it produces the brightest commercial light
known ; it is the only light by which the delicate shades of color can be dis.
tinguished ; it has no pet-cocks — a source of much danger — to be opened and
neglected; it has relief pipes from generator and gasometer; you can take
photographs at night by our light.

PERFECT MILK CANS are essential to profitable
dairying. A Milk Can is not perfect unless it can be
kept absolutely clean and free from germs and unless
it will last five or ten years without repairs.
The highest award at the Paris Exposition of I9f 0
was granted to the Buhl Cans on these two points.
Buhl Cans have the patented " Victor " Can Breast,
smooth as glass and free from spinning marks.
Buhl ; ans have no crevices within v/here milk can
lodge, and sour, and smell.
Buhl Cans are perfectly tinned and free from blem-
ish of any kind.
Buhl Cans are heavily and smoothly soldered within
and without and every can is tested.
Buhl Cans will not break, leak, or rust like common
cans.
Buhl Cans are indorsed by the highest dairy au-
thorities for their cleanliness and great durability.
They are used by the United States Government and
the largest creameries in the country.
They cost a little more than other cans, but will
last twice as long without repairs, and are easier to
clean.
If these points appeal to you, send for our book of
testimonials "From Mexico to the Top of the Earth,"
and price list.
We caution can buyers against imitation Buhl Cans
offered by some siipply houses. Every Genuine Buhl
Can bears our hibels, and is stamped with the Miik
Can Trademark.
It is a pleasure to answer inquiries in regard to
these goods. Send your order direct to the makers.

WHY DRUGS
For Nervous Debility?
-..J
TRADE MARK.
" If electricity might be given
in pill form its use would increase
a thousand -fold," When many
years ago the good famous Dr.
Rockwell delivered himself of the
foregoing, he little thought that
the year 1901 would find such a
stampede in favor of Galvanic
Electricity as a curative. All doc-
tors now use it. 1 have employed
it for thirty years and give it in
the only practical form. I am
the inventor of the famous
DR. SANDEN
HERCULEX,
the great home self-treatment by
Electricity. You place my Her-
culex appliance around your waist,
as you would an ordinary belt,
and wear it all night. It generates a great volume with small intensity. It
pours life, strength, and vigor into your system while you sleep. It cures
General Debility, Nervousness, Lame Back, etc. It is an improvement
over my famous Dr. Sanden Electric Belt, which for twenty-five years
was the standard.
FREE CONSULTATION.
If you live nearby, 1 should be pleased to have you drop in at my
office, when you can see the appliance and test current.
1 can then go over your symptoms and advise with you as to the
possibilities in your case.

RHEUMATISM,
LAME BACK
CURED
WITHOUT DRUGS.
*-^-{^'
The Dr. Sanden Herculex Appliance cures without the use of dru^s.
It is a home seif-application of the proper galvanic current. Every one :
knows to-day that galvanic electricity is the only reliable treatment for
Rheumatism, Lame Back, Sciatica, etc.
We all know or should know why. It is simply because galvanic i
electricity is the natural electricity. We find it in everything animate or
inanimate. Wt find it everywhere. When the air has for some reason
been depleted of it, notably before the approach of a storm, people do
not feel so well, and those with rheumatic tendencies '' have aches and
pains."
THE DR. SANDEN HERCULEX
gives you this galvanic current in a convenient form. You place it com-
fortably around the waist, like an ordinary belt, just before retiring to
bed. Use it all night. You wiP feel relieved of pain in the morning,
but it must be worn at least 60 to 90 days for permanent results. The
electrodes may be applied anywhere, carrying current to all parts of
the body.
The Dr. Sanden Herculex is an improvement over the Dr. Sanden
Electric Belt, which was for 25 years a standard treatment.

The Fir<9t Book on Ifealth and Disentte, with
Keeipe!*, contains all that anyone needs to know about rig:ht
and wrong ways of living, the causes of disease, their prevention
and cure, the symptoms and nature of common, chronic dis-
eases, and the simplest, practicable, '* common-sense"
metliods of cure, including even "Christian Science,"
and all hygienic resources, mental or physical. Over 380
" tried and true " recipes for all sorts of common com-
plaints are alone worth the i)rice of the book. The text is well
illustrated with 260 clear-cut pictures, in addition to over
50 Color Illustrations on 14 Plates,
showing the blood and nerves; the eye ; the vital organs and
their relations to special (pilvic) parts, skin, p:irasitic, vene-
real and throat diseases ; varicocele, etc. These must be
seeii to be appreciated , they are the finest ever placed in a
popular work — accurate, clear, and beautiful. Remember, too,
this is a complete, unemusculated book. It ignores
non3 of the parts, propensities, \ices, or errors of mankind,
sheds light of truth on dark places, and enables the reader to
know himself all through, and escape the pitfalls of ignorance.
The chapters on prostitution, sexual isolation, unhappy mar-
riage, contagious diseases, impotency, barrenness, "perverts,"
etc., are as Dr. Eadon well says, " original, startling:,
and very instructive, priceless in value, and calculated
to regenerate society." Every sufferer from diseas' will find
help somewhere in the 850 pages of this unequalled home coun-
sellor, and to many persons it will easily save from $10
to $100 yearly.
These two books are companion volumes of about the
same size, but each Is complete In Itself, useful and
interesting, with or without the other. Families really ought
to have both hooks. Individuals may care for only one of
them. Try one and you'll surely want the other also.
The Second l?ook Is Plain Home Talk, by Dr.
Foote, together with Tocology for Mothers, by Dr.
Westland. This is the book for every one who is married,
or ever expects to be. It is, in short, plain talk about the
sexual relations of mankind, marriage, its history in all
countries, curious varieties and experiments, m stakes, reforms,
and possible improvements in marriage. The opening chap-
ters on the sexual system, and reproduction, present a fine
series of
25 Color Illustrations on 4 Plates,
to illustrate "The Orlj^lii of Life," man from the egg,
foetal development, or life t efore birth, and the ''breast signs
of pregnancy" (very useful). The uses and abuses of the
great generative-function are treated frankly and fnlly
with the hope of teaching " how to be happy though married;"'
and the later "essays for iiiurrtcd people" present
original ideas on sleeping apart, excess, moderation, jealousy,
sexual indifference, continence, contraception, signs of preg^
nancy, food during pregnancy, child-making, barrenness, ex-
cessive child-bearing, early marriage, control of sex, etc.,
etc. All who hesitate to consult home phy^-icians
about delicate questions will find them answered
plainly in this work. Dr. Foote's cplebrated book, re-
vised and enlarged, is alone worth the price, but to cover the
needs of mothers and instruct them how to bear children
safely, with least possible discomfort and pain, and how
to care for and raise fine children, Dr. Westland's thorough
and practical Tocoloiry for Mothers (300 pages) is
bound in with Dr. Foote's book, making two in one. and
the latter C besides numerous illustrations for the text) has a
series of appropriate and pleasing pictures of the important
events in maternity, by well-known artists, in the form of
12 Artistic Half-Tone Plate Engrai/ings.
