The house of representa- tives may have practically abdicated as a legislative force, and in the sen- ate may have played fast and loose with its dignity, and flattered iteelf that it was playing a water-log game without the people knowing it; but still there isenough self-assertion in the legislative department of the government not to beled about with a string in the hands ofthe bear hun- ter in the white house. The people generally, with very little distinction on account of party prejudice, will be rejoiced at the ad- journment of congress, three weeks hence, and be equally happy overthe knowledge that thenew congress will be dormant till next winter. They know that they have nothing to ex- pect from either, and they are tired of encountering in their newspapers every morning the inflamatory prom- ises of what they know by this time is not going to take place. Sensation may be self-sustaining for a few months, but there comes a time when it is wearisome, and a lit- tle later it is disgusting; and stilla of the administration and by many senators that both treaties will be ratified before March 4, but the neces- sity for their early ratification is re- garded by the President as so urgent in the event of failure of either one or both at the present session he will is- sue his call for an extra session. It is said that there are grave rea- sons ofstate why both treaties should be ratified as soon as possible. These have induced the President to make the announcement of his deter- mination.

J, Feb. 20.—A heavy train upon the Delaware, Lackaran- na & Western railroad, running at sixty miles an hour, crashed intoa trolley car loaded with pupils on their way to the Highschool. Twelve. children were killed and thirty-one injured. Several of the injured who have been sent to hospitale are in such a condition that it is believed they cannot live. The accident was at the Clifton avenue crossing, ldng noted asadan- gerousspot. The'trolley car was one ofthe special vehicles which the North Jersey Street Railway company runs between 8 and 9 o’clock five morn- ings in the week for the special ac- commodation of High school pupils. It was crowded with pupils from all parte of the city. The motorman saw the train and put upon the brakes with all force. The car, however, slid upon the icy rails until the front platform project- ad over the tracks. A moment later the crasn came. The pilot of the en- gine struck the front platform and tipped the car over. The pupils were thrown under the wheels of the en- gine. To some death came imme- fessedly equal to that of any other country in the world and vastly su- perior to that of most countries. And all due to luck? One hundred years of luck? Not so. The honor attached to a position, exalted and dignified as it is, on the federal bench, will always be coveted, and properly, too, by men of capacity competent to discharge the duties involved, and it is accidental when men of this kind do not prevail over aspirants of in- ferior qualifications. We are inclin- ed to think that the honor and the salary that are the present reward of the federal judge are very well pro- portioned, and we fear that it would not improve the already satisfactory situation to take out a part of the honor and fill in with money, We have no doubt that our judges would not deteriorate in quality even if the salary schedule were cut 25 per cent. And we hold that the salaries now paid are not mean nor stingy. They do not signify great riches, but they do mean a regular and a permanent income ample for personal comfort and even for the maintenance of a style of living which to 99 per centof men seems luxurious, Ten Millions For a Museum, ANTI-TRUST LAWS UPHELD IN MISSOURI.
