THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON, - Md D.C + FRIDAY, APRIT 12, 1889. THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON: FRIDAY. -Aprit 12, 1889, ‘IHE EVENING STAR has the fullest Local Cirenlation of any Newspaper in the World. and as an Advertising Medium is worth more than all the other papers published in Washington. — Whether Mr. Juenemann was waylaid and murdered or killed by a railroad train his death points to conditions in parts of northeast Washington which should be remedied. Embankments, high above grade, upon which railroad tracks are placed, illegally obstruct certain streets. Even the tracks upon grade practically divide by a danger-Delt streeta which are crossed, the crossings being inade- quately watched and provected and the trains entering the city at an illegal rate of speed. In both cases the continuous improvement of the obstructed and divided streets is discour- aged. Asa result, in part, of these conditions, sections of northeast Washington are isolated, unpaved, and not properly lighted, and become the scenes of unpunished assaults and murders, More policemen, judiciously distributed, are needed for the protection of people until paved and hghted streets can be secured. The improvement of this section will not be satis- factorily accomplished until the surface rail- road tracks have been removed or the evils to be suffered from the few which may be per- Mitted to remain are reduced to a minimum, Bat in the meantime the law concerning the rate of sp .ed within city limits and concerning the protection of the public at grade-crossings should be enforced, and the evil of illegal em- bankments obstructing the public streets cor- rected. The ra cannot be forever per- mitted to occupy a part of the city in such manner that improvement is practically checked, and many of the streets remain in such condition that the people are driven to the railroad track itself. with ail its dangers, as the | public highway, Whether Mr. Juenemann was | kilied by the railroad directly with one of its | locomotives, or whether he was murdered by men who took advantage of the unimproved, unlighted and inadequately policed condition | of @ railroad-ridden section, the lesson to be learned is the same. Better police protection, and more faithful observance of the law by the | railroads, are the requirements of the present; the full remedy of a prohibition of surface tracks will come with the future. The war against grade crossings proceeds vigorously in other afflicted cities. A prohibition of such crossings was a condition of the entrance of the Baltimore | and Qhio railroad into Philadelphia. to prohibit grade-erc A bill | ngs is pending in the | Pennsylvania legislature, and the Philadelphia | Press erning it: “The broad principle of freeing the city from the nuis and the danger of this recognized. undisputed, and enormous evil ought to command universal endorsement and approval.” Some day, per- haps, Congress, the legislature of the District andeft Washin acti ot « in this direction ni will inspired by the legislatures to make an effort $< The quotation elsewhere from Mr. Whitelaw Reid serves to correct a number of misconcep- tions and misstatements afloat.

NOT A SIDE ISSUE IN A LARGE STORE, BUT A LARGE STORE WITH YOUTHS’, BOYS’, AND CHILDREN’S OUTFITTINGS AS ITS BEGINNING, AIM, AND END. In drawing the attention of those who have Boys to clothe and care for to the many advantages we possess over those who make Boys’ requirements a secondary matter—allof which our patrons get the full benefit of—we wish to be put op recor? at once and forall time as keeping in stock or offering for sale nothing that wecannot ABSOLUTELY GUARANTEE, in the broad- est interpretation of that term. Nothing thatdoes not come up to our high standard of style and excellence. We hold out no BAITS—which, by the way, is the Proper name for so-called “leaders.” We have moral courage enough to say that we make a profiton every- thing we sell, tut our profits are so small NOW that they will not admit of reductions lateron. Asa result, better values can be found here AT THIS TIME than anywhere. We believe we were the first house in America to deal exclusively in Boy's and Children's clothing and furnishings. We boldly stepped where others feared totread, and we were thereby cnabled to secure the exclusive right to handle and sell in this District the choicest productions of the best manufac- turers of Boy's and Children’s Clothing. SHIRT WAISTS. ‘The kinds we carry—and we are showing this season thousands of dozens of them—partake of the best features of the best makes, including improvements se- vured by patent rights, We've had our pick and choice ofall makes long ago, We handle thebest. Those that we've discarded have in some instances been taken up by others as the best they could do.

Youths aud young men will find represented here the hihest types of high art clothing, in the construc- tion of which we use the best products of the world’s looms. The ent and style represent the advanced ideas of Europe and America’s best designers. We place them within their reach at prices that will put to blush the nearest approach to actual competition here tate on the si ,ject of the diplomatic appoint ments, and there is no reasou for anticipating that there will be any. This statement, which is no doubt entirely authentic, throws a wet blanket upon the vati- cinations of the proy of evil who have been basy report ¥ discords between the Pres- ident and Mr. Blaine and foretelling a speedy cabinet rupture in conseque: of these strained relations. - —— + There seems to be no good reason why in as- certaining how inmates at the asylum have been treated the statements of the persons who have received and personally witnessed the treatment, to wit. the inmates themselves, should not at least be heard by Commissioner Wheatley in his investigation. Objections to their testimony affect its weight and not its competency. If it is to be considered that the usual tender ong the inmates of suc znify ill-treatment, it is <i that with the persons against © i control of them ch stronger tendeney re through rose-col- ve their testimony ac- Btitutions is tu to be remembe whom charges and their comfort exists to view their m: les, and to ored spe cordingly. Neither tendency, however, justifies a sweeping statement that the testimony of in- mates, often the only direct evidence which can be had, is incredible and incompetent. — Editor Watterson’s latest visit to Washington has not brought forth stories about the dis- courteous conduct of the new Secretary of War. Mr. Wattersou has probably revised his eard- plate. —— ‘The White Caps in Michigan have taken on & female annex, which makes it a business to hunt up wit aters and chastise them with switches, It is hardly likely, even in this gallant age, that all of that sort of thing will be left to one sex.

He proposes to show a conspiracy behind the Times’ action. This is about the most diffi- cult business a suitor in court can undertake, It is plain enough work, often, to prove malice Upon oue's single assailant. but to show that there is a direct connection between two or three assailants, some of them fighting in the open and some keeping in the darkest back- ground, is quite another matter. ——— The Washington celebration at New York seems to be drifting into a McAllister celebra- tion.
