EVENING STAR iG... rr _ EVENING _ DOUBLE ‘SHEET. ‘The frequency of coal-oil accidents has in- duced the underwriters, representing the presi- Gents and agents of various fire insurance com- panies located in Baltimore, to hold « meeting in that city to consider the expediency of ob- | taining municipal legislation against the stor. age and sale of expiosive illuminating fluids within the corporate limits of the city. At this meeting a letter was read from Fire Inspector Holloway, in which he stated that in a report which be made in 1369, it was set forth that out of 69 samples of oil collected from various parts Of the city, § only stood the test for purity and Bon-lability to explosion, and that since that time the sale of adulterated oils has increased tenfold, and accidents from their use have in- creased 500 per cent. The meeting appointed a committee to obtain legisiation on the subject. ‘The president of the meeting said he would | rather insure « house fall of gunpowder than a | house containing illuminating oils, for in the frst no person would enter, but in the latter people were presumptuous and handled tire ecklessiy. ‘The message of the new Governor of Vir- givia is rather weil received even by his political opronénts, who characterize it as a tair and unprejudiced statement of the condition of af- fairs in the state. He speaks encouragingly ot the relations between the two races in Virginia; refers to ummigration and capital as the two great wants of Virginia, and says that the war left a burden on the state, in the education of freedmen and the support of negro paupers, and greatly decreased the taxable property. He would deplore the interference of the fed- eral government with the schools as certain to Fegult in their destruction; but thinks that the government should supply the means for the | education of the negroes. With less than one- third of her proportion of the national cur- reney, he believes it the duty of the general | government to either afford her her due propor- thon or repeal the existing tax on state bank notes, thus allowing Virginia to provide a cir- culating medium of her own. ——_-+eee-— San Franciscois having a disgraceful wrangle in its fire department, there being tw» boards of fire commissioners, with two chief engineers, struggling for the supremacy, and in the mean- time one hundred million dollars worth of prop- erty is virtually deprived of its proper protec- tion inst fire. One night last week the new commissioners broke into the office of the old commissioners and took possession of the place and vault. Subsequently the old commission. ers, by way of retaliation, were to meet and di place all the foremen and firemen who refuse to obey their chief engineer, This last step would force the demorslization now existing at head- quarters into the ranks of the department. No remedy can be applied until the next meeting of the legislature, but the Mulle/in warns the contestants that “if any great disaster should take place, the public knows where to look for the guilty parties.” Tar New Coat Comutxation._The New York /’st, speaking of the reported consolida- tion under one corporation of the Pennsylvania coal companies and transportation lines from the coal fields, noticed elsewhere, in to-day’s it is not pleasant news to read in midwinter, nor is its depressing effect lessened by the fact that it was made to evade a law of | the Pennsylvania legislature, which went into ‘Operation January Ist, making such combina- nations of railroad and other corporations il- legal. The Post which omits to state that the | pat ‘i Delaware, Lackawanna and Western Road is not a party to this combination, and that it has always refused to joinin any such movement, | hopes the new corporation will deal kindly with the public, as it has its hand onevery man’s | hearthstone. — <a: — Recorder Hackett, of New York, refases to allow any political interference with the ap- pointments of his court, and in answer to a let- ter from the Secretary of "ward club says as tmauch. He also says the court appoints the ofi- cers who conduct prisoners to and from the jails, and have charge of them during their trials, and that it is necessary that such men shall be above bribes, and that they shall have experience. He clinches the matter by saying | that should he make appointments, dictated by @ political organization he would be continually changing his oficers for the reason that politi- cal committees are frequently changed. — Ss — Under the head of “ Unfair Criticism,” the New York Commercial says “The 8 im Cuba derive some com- fort from opinion of the Attorney General, but when mhen they spply y their strong expletives to the irginius, they forget that the ship poeta and under no circumstances could be reclaimed by Spain. There was no reason RE, this —— should sink her by a could do s0 as openly od as right Piney its employes could dump ashes into the sea. The Attorney (:eneral pro- wounced the V 7 as mach exempt from interference on the high seas by another power as Af her papershad been all right.” steamer’s It is understood that the claim of Spain (should she ever make any) against the United States for expenses incurred in the capture of the Virginius would be effectually barred by the precedent established by the Geneva tribu- nal, denying the liabilityof Great Britain for indirect damages. So the decision of that in- ternational tribunal on that point at which we were disposed to growl, may. after all, have been a blessing in disguise. —— From Warren Choate & Co. wa have a valua- ble publication, “Schem’s Statistics or the World.” Schem seems to be pretty well posted, but we should like to hear from his cotempora- ries, Ham and Japhet, who settled in other —_ = seoe- The sensible | influences of wise counsel anda spirit of accommodation have brought about a reasonable settlement of the difficulties lately existing between the engineers on a numer of the Western railroads and their employers. } | tions will be held as | follows: Republicans, of Connecticut, in Ne’ Haven, February 11, prohibitionists, of Connec- ticut, m Havefi, Janaary 15; republicans, | of New Hampshire, in Concord, Seen aS Daxa:— Counts that day lost whose low descending Sun Shows from bis hand no dirty action done. pag pe = omonon Vermont ones: ‘COPAL CRUBCH OF T cet tee UBBARD, rector; BPiS 5 N rite mo. af A D “a SUNDATS, is. wand 7) p.m. Seats free. fu iceeta,, borvise eae CHoRTH iT Liv Hoaow. ors ING STAR. | o> SUNDAY MORNING GAZETTE, Will be s rich number TO MORROW, wang thausacd patrons wi A Bopey New ¥ & .
