eS ee THE EVENING 8TAR: WASHINGTON, D.C., SATURDAY, fuprvary 18, 1888—DOUBLE SHEET. . the District of Columbia has been decided, so far a8 the Senate District comuaittee cap settie it, Dy & ‘vote of five to four im favor of tue rullroads; and it 3s also determined by the same vote that the Fean- aylvacia roud 18 “boss” among the District's rail- road dictator, The new District Senators ‘and Senator Riddleberger combined to deteat the views of Senator Spooner, and of Senavors Tngaila, Vance and Harris who, by long experience 4m District matters aad special study of the local railroad problem, have mastered tne whole subject, ‘The community may congratulate !tselt, bow- ever, that the evils of the occupation of the ‘Mall and tue streets and aveaues of South ‘Washington by surface tracks are aot to be inten- sified by tue addition of tue Balumore and Onio Tails to those which disfigure and obstruct that ‘section at present, If nothing 1s to De done tc JoWer or elevate sul face tracks, to protect tue pub- lie from the dangers of crossings at grade, or to check Ube legal occupation of streets and reser- ‘vations and the use of streets for unauthorized purposes, it ts best that statioas, cars and (racks ‘should remain where they are uatll the spectacle of scoupie of raliroads defantly occupying and retaining, with no claim Dut that of squatter sov- ‘ereignty, public property in the capital of the ns on, shal arouse the indignation of more public spirited Congressmen, and until the ugly and arty raliroad surroundings, poked under the very nove and eyes of the national legislature, sail Offend tue seases of legislators who are more thoughtful und appreciative. The drift of things tm the whole Senate committee hearing has given this controversy the appearance of & mere wrangle between rival railroads in @ividing betweea themselves as plunder tne TeserVations avenues, and streets of Washiugton, in which the Senators are Invited to take sides be- ‘Tween tue Mvais but in which the people of the city, with complulnts agalust and demands for re- Uet frou (be practices of both roads, have little or no concern If we action of the comunittee means ‘that so far as it Is concerned the present servitude of the city to the railroads 1s to continue abso lutely unreiteved, then tue atvention of (he courts must be persistently called to tue illegal acts of the roads, and the House must be given that op- portunity to propose Just legisluuion which the Senate committee will have negi cted to selze. a Everybody except the speculators in the neces- sities of their neighbors w.li rejoice at the pros- pective settlement of the great Reading coal strike, a8 outilned In the correspondence which passed between Messrs. Lewis and Corbin yester- day. The terms of agreement are alike honorable to bot parties. Of course the advantage is with ‘Mr. Corbin, Who has brought his opponents over to the stand which he bas maintain d steadily from the first—to wit, that the Reading Company | ‘Would n0% discuss the case of the railroad surikers at all, and would conduct no negotiations with the miners ull they bad returned to their allegiance and made their advances as empioyés of the cor- pe ft ts much to the credit of the miners that they recognized the logic of the situation and quitted the false position 3a which they baa unwittingly placed themselves, ‘They b.¥e now secured a solid footing. When they have resumed work they will have a right to de- ‘mand of their employers a fair arbitrayon of taetr grievances, and Mr. Corbin has put it out of his power to deny them this right, even if he desired to do so. Inasmuch, however, as his success Initherto has been largely due to his literal ruifll- ment of obligations, it is fair to presume that he means to act in good faith in the present matter, and that the miners will not have any cause to complain of ill-treatmeot, ‘The public have reason to rejoice over the turn things have now taken, because it leaves abso Tutely no excuse to the graspiug wholesale dealers ‘who have raised (he prices of coal on the plea of a ‘searcity produced by the Reading strike, notwith- standing It wus shown, by unanswerable figures ‘that the strike had produced no scarcity, but had merely made @ market for the surplus that had been lying idle on the operators’ hands, and that ‘the equilibrium between supply and demand had ‘been preserved by the extra large output from the ‘Wyoming and Lackawanna ‘nines, —<—$—$ —$_—___ ‘The newest idea in Wali street is a petition to | the governors of the New York stock exchange, | signed by the richest and most influential brokers ‘who do business there, for the appointment of an | auditor, whose duty it shall be to investurate and | Keep track of the Boancial condition of the various | corporations whose securities are Listed oa the ex- | ehange, and furnish honest information to tp- quirers who coniemplate investing.
