The Cntnstropho of Ivlm.Tho loss of tho stenogrnphlo notes which

wero expected to prcservo tho pioccodlngBof the TABSinT Committee, falls llko a meat-nx- o

blow upon that diligent but exr.spciatcdrofonncr .Mr. W. Makeaway Ivix.s. Formonths past ho has lived In au atmosphcioof stenographic notes, dilating his lungswith political shorthand ami cherishing

lslons of power nnd preferment as ho dweltupon tho questions and nnswers asked orgiven before tho great Fassett; nnd now hisMachiavellian structuiu passes nwoy Intotho hands of I ho junkman or pa pel -- chaser

This Is a sad blow to tho Illustrious Ivinh,and a sorry rovorso to tho Infant Industryof getting votes in Now York city throughnueBtloDB asked by statesmen fiom tho In-

terior. Ivbjs has been at tho helm duringtho wholo business, and ho lias been pilingup stenogrnphlo records at n grent rnto.Ho lias run tho gnmut of inquiry andsounded tho depths of knowledgo only tohavo his slenographlo storehouso rilled otits trcasuro by sorao baso enemy ot goodgovernment nnd reform, somo friend ofmiscellaneous cleanliness, somo too ot thoRotter Element.

Smnll wonder that tho spirit of tho manwho thought ho had tho Tammany tiger bytho scruff of tho neck, but who found thatho hadn't, should now bo saddouod by anoverpoweilng anil pervasive grief. Smallwonder that ho should dovoto his off hoursto tho toll of searching. Thoso notes woro

Makeawax's dynamlto. Thoy wero chargedwith cxploslvo force Just as ho was g

to touch off tho fuse, thoy disappear.Tho logman negotiates for their purchase,nnd pays, probably, a small price. Is itstrange that tho reformer should bo dis-

consolate ?

Rut passing from tho contemplation ofHrother Ivinb bereft of his shoot anchor,rudder, and topsail, and becalmed in Annstreet on a sea or Junk, wo may go a stepfurther and ask who had any Intorcstln tak-ing those Fassett Committee notes, and towhat uso can they havo been put? Tothis question several answers irresistiblysuggest themselves, l'crhaps the noteswero taken by an emissary of tho RallotReform Club, and wero cut Intoslips and pads for tho signaturesof tho countless thousunds who arestill clamoring for nn Australian ballot.Perhaps thoy wero usod by our CountyDemocracy friends for resolution purpose?,tho supply of paper having run Bhort. Per-haps Commissioner Pouter used them forthe enrollment of tho names omitted duringtho lato imperfect census of tho city. Per-haps tho Republican Ruslncss Men employedthem for somo purpose as yet sternly con-

cealed. All theso surmises and conjectureshavo evldonco of more or less forco to sus-

tain them; but wo think that, after all, noono of thorn furnishos tho truo solution oftlio problem. Still wo havo to ask what hasbecomo of tho stenographic notes of thopolitical Manfred, tho lonesomo but un-

abashed William Makeaway, the man wholike his prototype who fell from tho balloonIs not In it.Tho theory to which wo think tho facta

point most clearly is that Dick Chokertook Makeaway's notes with him on theColumbia. When hero ho did not learn muchof tho Fassett Committee; when departing,what more natural than ho should take thenotes to beguile the tedium of his voyago toHamburg ? Richard has them, and beforemany days thoy may be llko Brother Ivinshimself when vlowed in his political aspect

half seas over. This accounts, too, for tholeaving behind of Mr. Choker's trunks. Holoft tho latter in order totako Ivi.nb'8 notes;and thore is no risk in declaring that ho dida mognamlmous act, for tho trunks ofRichard may perhaps furnish to Ivins'sinvention tho damning evidence ot sotnooutrageous mischief, whereas the Fassettnotes aro wholly without tho suggestion ofposslblo damage to any existing creaturo.

Undoubtedly tho proper thing for Ivinsto do is to go abroad in search ot his notes.He can carry, so to speak, tho war of Inves-tigation into tho heart of Germany; and ifhe fights bard and fights fair and staysaway long enough, who knows whattriumphs may in his absence await thoDemocratic opponents ot Tammany Hall ?

The Reception of "Lux Mundl."As was to be expected, tho attempt to

reconcile religion and sclenco made In tliocollection ot essays lately published in Lon-don, under the title of "Lux Mundl," hasproved unsuccessful. All the essays werewritten by graduates of Oxford, who arealso clergymen of the Church of England,and there Is no doubt that tho authors wereactuated by creditable and conscientiousmotives. Nevertheless, tholr undertaking,though it has not provoked the storm ofobjurgation with which tho "Essays andReviews" were assailed thirty years ago,has been received with equal disfavor byauthoritative expounders of orthodoxy llkoCanon Liddon and by such representativesof agnosticism as Prof. Huxley.

Of tho essays colloctcd in "Lux Mundl" itis tho treatise on " Tho Holy Spirit and Inspi-ration" which is especially obnoxious to thoorthodox upon tho ono hand and the skepti-cal upon the other, Tho tenor of that treat-it- o

was peculiarly cautious and tentative,most ot its positions being taken interroga-tively rather than affirmatively. It Is clear,however, that tho author conceded too llttloto propitiate Prof. Huxley, and a great dealraoro than Canon Liddon will lolerate. Thoessayist had ventured to suggest that, whilethere isa flow ot Inspiration through thowhole ot tho Old Testament, this need notbo supposod to guarantee tho exact histori-cal truth of tho wholo record. Ho pro-pounded tho query whethor with duo regardto legltlmato historical criticism, part of itcould bo pronounced true ? Uy adding thattho Scriptural record from Auuaham down-wind was in substanco strictly historical, hoseemed to acknowledge that tho record fromAriiaiiam upward must bo regarded as

and that tho nar-ratives bliould bo looked upon as mere" types "and parables.

This attempt to qualify tho trustworthynebs of any part of tho Old Testament hasmet with buu'ro repiobntlon from CanonLiddon. 'I his eloquent divine, in thu coursoof a bermon pivached In St. 1'uul's Cathe-dral, declared that "for Christians it Isenough to know that our Lord JuiUHC'intisrsci mo seal or ills lumiltblu sanction on thowhole of tho Old Testament. Ho found thoHebrew Canon as wo havo It and Hofloated Hub uii authority which was ubovodiH'Utfhion.

knowledgo to popular Ignorance, and hoalso demonstrates tho Inadmissibility of thoalternative hypothesis thnt Jnius sharedtho popular Ignoranco. Ot those who holdtho latter vlow Canon Liddon says: "Thoywill find It difficult to porsundo mankindthat. If .Trsus could bo mistaken on o mat-ter of such strictly religious Importance astho value of tho sacred literature of Hiscountrymen, Ho can safely bo trusted aboutanything else. The trustworthiness ot thoOld Testament h, In fact, inseparable fromtho ttustworthluess of our Lord JesusChrist."

Curiously enough, Prof. Huxley arrivesot tho sumo conclusion as Canon Liddon,though from a different starting point, andperhaps with different motives. Ho alsomaintains that tlio trustworthiness of thoOld Testament is Inseparable from tho

of Christ; nnd ho InslstB uponapplying to tho wholo Scriptural record thomaxim falaus in uno, falmm in omnibus. Hochallenges tho " Lux Mundl " essayist toshow any reason for faith In tho dlvlno na-tur- o

(which Implios tho omniscience) ofJesus Curibt, if tho essayist denies tho his-

torical truth evon ot such sections of thonarrative as thoso which re-

count tho creation of man nnd woman, nndtheir fall from prlmitlvo Innocence. Prof.Huxley quotes from Matthew (xlx., 8):

"nave yonotroad that ho which made themfrom tho beginning made thorn male andfemalo nnd said: 'For this causo Bhall aman leave his father and mothor and elenvoto his wlfo, and tho twain shall becomo onoflosh.' " If dlvluo authority, adds tho Pro-fessor, Is not hero claimod for tho twouty-fourt- h

verso of tho Bocond chapter of Gene-sis, what is tho valuo of language ? Prof.Huxlf.y proceeds to ask what if ono maypiny fast and looso with tho story of thoFall, as a typo or allogory becomes of thofoundation of tho Paulino theology, to wit:"For slnco by innu camo death, by mancamo also tho resurrection of tho dead. Foras in Adah all die, bo also in Christ shallall bo made allvo "'I

It is, Indeed, a thankless task to try torcconcllo tho conclusions of modern sclencowith the plain meaning ot tho Scripturalrecord. Hero there is no middle path. Thoythat aim to traco ono risk being regarded byscientists as fools, and by orthodox theolo-gians as knaves. Retweon the fate, howover,of tho authors of "Essays and Reviews"and that of tho clorgymen rcsponslblo for"Lux Mundl," thero is this difference, thattho latter havo not as yot been subjected toconcerted and rigorous persecution.

Ecclesiastical.As It seems to us, our esteemed contem-

porary, the Philadelphia Xurth American,comments upon tho coed of the Rov. Dr.Buiitsell with much inoro earnestness thanIntelligence:

"This Is trat one ot n liost or symptoms that the posl-tlo-

of tho lower clergy In the Koiuaa CathoUo Churchof thU country Is becoming Intolerable. lu countrywhere no ono it respectej or can respect hlmielfunless ho possesses as much liberty as Is conslstent with his professional ob'ltfat!ons, tho priest,hood aro denied the liberty accorded lu Itavarlaud Tyrol, an! are placed under & personal supervisionwhich wa designed out) formleilonarles on toe foreignfield. As a consequence there Is no country where theRoman Catholic priesthood count for so little In generalsociety, in proporUon to their abilities aud character.They aro regarded, oue aud alt as instruments in thehands of their superiors, and liotos rejpouslble and freeagtnts. For its own eike, no lest than theirs, theChurch mutt flad a way out of this "

The orror in theso Interesting observa-tions oonslsts in tho idea that tho positionof tho Catholic clergy has changed in auyrespect whatever. Every Catholic priest isbound to rendor obedience to ilia Bishop,and this obligation ho assumes at tho out-set. This has always been tho tact, and Itis no moro the fact y than at ovory for-

mer period. Along with every possiblovariation In minor regulations, the clergyof Bavaria or tho Tyrol are just as muchbound to obedience as tho Catholic clergyof the United Statos; and priests horohavo just as much Independence as prloststhere, no less and no more. This is tlio na-

ture and essence of tho Catholic Church,nnd, If it wero otherwise, tho Church wouldnot bo what it over has been, a compact,orderly, disciplined, andj cohoront organiza-tion, always following certain establishedprinciples, and observing dellnito and un-

changeable laws of authority aud action.Our contemporary thinks that the Church

must find a way out ot this. Ot courso sucha way is possible, but it would bo the way ofrevolution, disorganization, disappearance.Thero would not bo any Catholic Churchafterward, but only a sorles of fragments,with no moro cohesion and no moro har-mony than aro Been in the hundred warringueeta of Protestantism.

Tho Multiplication of Offices.

It appears from a statement of tho FirstAssistant Postmaster-Gonora- l that tho num-ber of Post Offlcesin oporatlonon Julyl, 1890,

was 62,100, an lncreaso ot 0,339 slnco 1880. Inten years nearly ten thousand new officehold-ers havo been added to tho civil servlco bythe Post Offico Department alone. Ot coursotho incroose is much greater in this thau inany other department of tho Government,but in all the departments tho making ofnow offloea goes steadily If more slowly on.The creation ot nowofflcosls tho first prin-ciple of Republican legislation.

Tho salary ot many ot tho fourth-clas- s

Postmasters Is only a trifle, but that factdoesn't prevent their adding to the strengthof tho Federal machine Tho more Postmas-ters thero aro tho hurdcr it Is for tho purtyin power to bo turned out.

Senator Sawyer has just brought In a billfor tho establishing of a postal telegraph.Wo wonder If ho has over thought of thenumber of new Federal officeholders that aGovernment telegraph would mako neces-sary.

The Grangers in tho West aro asking forGovernment control ot tho railroads. Ac-

cording to Poor's Manual for 188V therowero in that yoar 930,000 persons in tho em-ploy of railroads. Government control ofrailroads would mean, at the start, an nrmyof moro than a million ollleeholdors, and thonumber would increase rapidly ovory year.

Tho process ot manufacture, brloflyconsists In forcinc a solid Incot of

and closoly comprossod by cornlne Incontact with a movable restralninc bar, whichmoron ninny decroos slower than the carrlacowhich forcos tho stcol throucli tho rolleis.Durlnc this slow process the stoel is kopt ntIts oriclnal tomporaturo, whioh rendor It

ished product any sbo. Tho chlof tidvnntacoclaimed for this now procoss of Mnnnomannistocivoto tho hollow motal all tho stroncththat a solid bar possesses, tocethor with In-

creased llchtness. besides retalnlnc tho olas-tlclt- y

that makes stcol so aluablo a motal.Tho apphcabllltv of tho procoss Is not re-

stricted to tho worklncof stool, but it may bousod with llko results In transforming bronze,brass, and coppor. althouch with tho lattermetals such an Intcnso docrco of heat is notnecessary. A black boat will Bufllco to workthoso motals successfully.

Tho croat cxponso noccssnry toerect a portoct plant will probably procludo,for tho time belnc, any American company fromattempting to adoj.t tho now procoss.

In Berlin recently 11 err Mnnnosmann ap-

Thowoldlnc by oloctricity It Is tixpoetod will onterinto the manufacture of articles under thisnew proevss uuitu extouslvely.

Another point broucht forth lu favor of thisnow Invention Is tho uso to which this hollowstool may be applied. It Is a factthat a hollow bur is much su oncer than abolldbar of tbo sumo slo. J ts resli-tanc- o is ci eater,besides hawuc tho decided advantuco of supe-rior lichtnes-- .

Probably It lio hiic-cce-

In tills direction tho recoil from tho fliatdiscbarce would iond the bic cun caioonlucover the Held like a tunawny baby carriage.

In tho uso of this procoss for tho manufac-ture of shells for projootlles deslcnoa for lurcocuns, a croat obstacle constantly oncountorodby ordiiuuco ofllcors will, be ovorcoino.

Tho General Term of tho Supremo Court hashandod down a decision In the eult ot HenryWinthrop day. recolvor ot tho North BlverBucar lioflnlnc Company, acalnst D. Da ,

Castro und tho lionnor Bucar ltofln- - '

inc Company for n dissolution ot thatnnd all other companies comprtsinc tbobucar Trust, Grny obtained nn Injunction re- -

btralnlnc all tho defendants from in any manr.or disposing of property comlou into tholrhands under tho trust acroomont. The Gen-or- al

Term modlllos this injunction by simplyrestralninc tho North River Bucar RefiningCompany from romovlnc any property fromthis Stato, hoi ill nc that tho rocelvcr has noauthority foractinc in the case ot the othercompanies.

Tho injunction as orlclnally granted re-

strained all tho defendants from parting withany of tho proporty or moneys comlnc intotheir hands under tho trust acroomont. Mr.Gray claimed that thero was a probability, Utho trust woro Dually dissolved, that the)property would bo removed Irom tho State,nnd tho business carried on under a charternlready obtained In Connecticut. That proba-bility, says tho General Term, is sufficientlyestablished to sustain nn injunction so far asJt alio, ts nnd pioserves tho property whiohcamo Into tho hands of tho plaintiff as rocelverol tin) .Noi tb HI voc Sugar ltollnlnc Company,but thai doos not mean all ot the money audoffocts of tho combination. It Is no moro thantho property of tho Nortn lllvor rjugar.ltoflnlneCompauv.

Tho Court says furthor that thore 1b no ne-cessity shown for Sir. Gray's Intervention labehalf of members of tho defendants, and thuthn was without authority to act for them.Tnoruls but one description of proporty. tneCourt holds, which can at this tlmo be brouchtwithin tho protection ot nn injunction at thesuit ot this recolvor. and that is the proporty ottho North lllvor Sucar Iteltulne Company. AuInjunction us to that may ory well be sus- - .4tamod. Whothor tho dcod or ucreement under B

which tho trust has been formed can be annulled nnd nn accounting of its operations

may bettor bo rolecated to tho tiial ottho action than considoiod with any decreo otparticularity at this tlmo. in thn moan timstho corporuto proporty of thn North lllverriucur liellnlnc lompunyshould be retained inthis Muto nnd subjoct to tho control ot thisCourt. Willi this inodltlcution tho Injunctionis afllrmed.

Mr. Johu E. Parsons, (counsel for tlio trust,snid johteiduy that tho modification ol the in-

junction permits tho tru-,- t to pay dividendswithout further need of applying to tlm courtns each dividend bocomes duo. lie said also:

" I understand thnt thoro is no loncoi an in-

junction which ntTocts the payment of dlvl- -

dend or nny other transler of property exceptIn tho caso ot tho property belonclnc to thoIvnrth Idvor ltoliuinc Company.''

Tbo proporty or the North lilvor Company, ofcourse. Inoludcs its interest lu tho piollts oftho trust.
