Wonders never cease Although Mr.
Reed probably has as yet given little
attention to. and has certainly not
made up his mind on any particular
policy to be followed when he becomes
speaker of the house, a democratic
newspaper published in \\ ashington
has found out all about it and has
taken the public into its confidence.
If there ever was more gall displayed,
even in these days of ,4entrrpr sing"
newspapers it has escaped attention.
It is unnecessary to mention the pro-
gram outlined by this knowing news-
paper further than to say that it be-
gins with the absured statement that
the republicans w'.ll be afraid to touch
the tariff That is false enough, as
time will show, to stamp the whole
story as a democratic office-made fake.
It is the democrats who are afraid.
One of the certainties of the next ses-
sion of congress is that the house will
revise the tariff in a number of im-
portant particulars, and it is probable
that the revision will be accepted by
the senate, although that body wiW

would like to remove Ambassador
Eustis for his recent indiscretions in
the way of jingo speeches and news-

he does so he will make Eustis the

He recognizes that however indiscreet
the utterances of Mr Eustis may have
been in a diplomat his opinions have
voiced the sentiments of many \ineri-
cans and that his removal from office
for such an offense would make him
very popular. That being the case it
is probable that Mr. Eustis will re-

being reprimanded and resigns, as he
may do. It has been whispered ever
since that London speech that Mr.
Eustis has presidential aspirations.
Investor, the lloston journal devoted
financial affairs, says that the compa-1

take deeds for the property and re

of getting out of the matter. Thi> is
a better way for the mortgagee than
to forclose and leave a judgment hang-
ing over him: as the property would,
of course, in no case bring the amount
of the mortgage. According to the
Investor, the companies have been in

the matter. To bring a foreclosure

through the courts and wait until the

too expensive a process, and there
