4 THE EVENING STAR: THE EVENID WASHINGTON: THE EVENING STAR ns t the fullest Local Circulation of any Newspaper in the World, and as au Advertising Medium is worth more than all the ether papers published in Washington. —_— ees Bew York Office: Room 93, Tribune Building. ——— ees The American society of civil engineers in session in New York made a report vesterday on the causes of the Johnstown flood disaster, but declined to make it public on the ground that it might affect the suits for damages now pending. Whether the pending suits would be affected in favor of defendant or plaintiff the society does not say, and it thereby does an injustice to itself and to the other parties at interest, because as it now stands the nataral inference is that the report mast be against the owners of the South Fork dam and that the society is holding it back to benefit the de- fondants, If it is otherwise the society injures the owners, for if they are not at fault in the Premises evidence exonlpating them should be submitted in common justice. Until the report is made pablic the society will rest under the imputation that it ia shielding the rich owners of the dem against the just demands of those who have suffered by the breaking of of it. a The death of Walker Blaine causes general sorrow. There is regret at his loss as an effi- cient officer in hiv department of government, but « deeper fecling is that which is based upon his loss as a friend To all who knew him, closely or remotely, he was sympathetic and kind, and harshness was an element which found no place in him. To bis father he was ass right band, tobia mother and sisters he was ever tho devoted son and brother, the courteous genticman. His character and his genial personal qualities. made him one of the most popular men who has ever been in Wash- jugton. The sympathy extended to bis family is @ reflex of the sorrow experienced by all who bave known him or known of him. ——$$<—— What maybe done with the south side of Peunsyivania avenue as a site for public build- ings is yet a question for settlement, but there should be ne uncertainty upon the question of using reservations in the city for such purposes. It was not the original intent that they be so used and the sentiment of the District is against it, as isthe sentiment of all who wish to seo the capital a beautifal city Our parks are the pride of the whole country and that they should be destroyed by putting buildings on them merely to save expense of buying other land ts not to be tolerated. —_ ————— While the grip’s victims have been numerous end in many cases prominent the midications of tue past day or two are that the disease has passed its climax in this country, The weather is probably going to be colder and clearer, and ail forms of colds will be less prevalent, ——__ —+ Buffalo i is treating distinguished prize fighters as vagrants lacking visible means of support, and New York is handing over to Mississippi participants in the Sullivan-Kilrain affair to be fined and locked up a couviets, The pugilist is at @ discount.
