Shortly after her marriage "Nellie, who was used to an active life, established a granite factory, which she is still conducting and which has made te. The wnrfnre against the gas trust which was begun by the newspapers of this city about a month or two ago, has ended and everything Is as serene as ever. Similar warfares have been Inaugurated In former years, usually about a month or two before the time for opening the bids for furnishing light to the city. Just about the same time every year the discovery is made that the gas furnished by the gas trust Is of a poor quality and complaints pour In from every part or the city. The object of that procedure Is qulte obvious. Those who Instigate the campaign hoe to compel the gas trust to make concessions to pacify public opinion as represented by the papers. Strange to sny. that policy invariably falls and never was the result more negative and the fnllure more pronounced than this year. Excepting a trivial concession of a few cents a year for each gas lamp the prices charged by the companies that submitted bids for lighting the city were the same as last year. It is evident from the attitude that the trust does not fear any local developments or any legislation in Albany that would endanger Its monopoly. The papers that have been the most bitter In waging war against the gas trust have nothing to sny now and. In fact, have not had much to sny for some little time. By a peculutr coincidence those papers spiked their guns exactly at the time when an attractive and conspicuous advertisement Inserted by the gas companies made Its appearance in their columns. Honl soit qul mal y pense. It was a mean trick played against District Attorney Jerome, when the legislature In Albany so changed his bill against gambling, that the clause which authorises securing of compulsory testimony does not become operative before September 1st. Mr. Jerome had sufficient Information upon which to proceed agnlnst Richard Canfield, the gambler king, but he needed the testimony of Reginald Vanderbilt, to secure Canfield's conviction. According to Mr. Jerome's Information Reginald Vanderbilt lost about 8400,000 In one night at Onn field's establishment. Reggie, how ever, did net wish to testify and Mr. her Independently rich. An Important decision has been rendered by the New York supreme court the other day, which will be of Interest to many persons, who are in the habit to patronise many restaurants, rang- ing between ten cent lunch houses and places like Sherrys, Martins and The meaning of the decision Is, briefly, that the owner of a restaurant Is financially responsible for any injury to the clothes of his patrons, caused by the negligence or awkwardness of his waiters. In the case in question a waiter had spilled a glass of water over a delicately tinted silk gown and the supreme court decided on an appeal, that Mr. Sherry, the owner of the restaurant, had to pay the full value of the ruined gown. The lawyers are quite enthusiastic over the decision, as they expect to reap a rich harvest In consequence desire Ease, Comfort the Naniwa and the Takachiho, built by the Armstrongs In England, were launched.

The decision of the Long Island railroad to substitute electricity for steam power on Its locomotives on all Its lines In Brooklyn, Is believed to the adoption of the electric locomotive as a substitute for the steam locomotive on all the other railroads in this city. The New York Central railroad has been experimenting with electrical locomotives for some time and has been considering their Introduction on their New York system of lines, but, for some reason or other Yokoska was commenced In 1865, unthe plan has never been carried out der the supervision of a French engineer. This was not completed till 1879. The recent death of Robert Seaman, It cost ftearly $2,500,000.

The comptroller made himself decidedly persona non grata by supporting senator McCarren In his light against That Murphy, the Tammany leader. was treason In the eyes of the faithful Tammanyltes, but Mr. Grout's next offense was even of a graver nature. He actually dared to recommend to the municipal civil service commission to abolish the office of supervising accountant In the finance department, which recently became vacant by the resignation of John R. Sparrow, Its last Incumbent. The office Is well salaried and the Idea of having a good office abolished, which would furnish a soft berth for some deserving Is gall and wormwood to the clan. By advocating the abolishment of Unit office Mr. Grout has trod upon a sore spot and Tammany hall Is not likely to forgive him that. lv, Probably no officer of the America): Navy has followed the development of that of Japan with greater Interest than Lieut. Henry E. Rhoades, now on duty at the Brooklyn Nevy Yard, for he was officially Identified with the beginning of the navy of Japan as far back as 1868. When asked recently If he was not one of the American Navy officers who received appointments In 1868 to aid in the organization of the Japanese navy, he replied: I believe that the credit for the Japanese navy may be placed to the American navy officers. It really began with the purchase of the armorclad Stonewall Jackson (later named the Adzuma) from the United States government, in 1866, although the construction of the naval dockyard at Jerome was powerless to compel him. That was the reason why Mr. Jerome was so anxious to have his bill passed and he is greatly mortified over his defeat by the powers behind the throne.

His removal has had a decidedly salutary effect upon the Brooklyn police department and resulted In a number of raids upon gambling houses and poolrooms. NEW' YiiKK, Mm.

"She put to sea soon afterwards, but owing to some derangement of the steering machinery she ran into Fer-ro- l, Spain, for repairs, in February, 1865, where were lying the American war vessels Niagara and Sacramento. The comander of the American vessels allowed the Stonewall to escape, and she went to Lisbon, and thence across the Atlantic to Havana. Here she lay until after the close of the civil war, and was then given up by Spain to the United States. Later the Stonewall was sold to Japan, and she was sent over there by the United States, under command of Capt. (now Rear Admiral) George Brown, and delivered at Yokohama in the latter part of the spring of 1868.

In 1902 Japan's diet passed a bill providing for the establishment of a steel foundry at the Kura arsenal for the manufacture of armor plate. We are inclined often to speak of the rapid advance of Japan, but the development of the military and naval forces of the empire has already been appreciated by foreigners. Aspiring to play an important point In the politics of eastern Asia, she has spared no effort and shrunk from no sacrifice to place herself in the matter of armed equipment on a level with her possible competitors. The Japanese are born sailors and a country with so extensive and vulnerable a seaboard could In no case afford to neglect its maritime commerce. The administration of her naval department has been thes ubject of arclmonious party conflict at times, but there has been no disagreement on the broad imperial policy of a largely Increased naval outlay. A shipbuilding program was agreed on a few months ago to begin this year the construction of four bat' tleshlps of 15,000 tons each, two ar mored cruisers of 9,900 tons each, four second class 5,000 ton cruisers, fifteen torpedo boat destroyers and fifty torpedo boats.
