4 THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON: the fallest Lecal Clreulation of any Newspaper in the Werld, and as an Advertising Medium is worth more than all the ether papers published in Washington, — An important step in the settlement of affairs of the Chesapeake and Ohio canal was taken yesterday. Judge Cox announced that he had decided to appoint receivers for the eanal on the application of the bond holders of 1878, and it is expected that Judge Alvey of the sireuit court of Washington county will make ® similar decision applicable to the part of the canal in Maryland. ‘The state of Mary- land, not to be behind the other litigants, may institute proceedings to foreclose under its mortgage of 1835. It is not clear what the result of the Various court proceedings will be. The success f the application of the bond holders of 1878 would be expected to result in favor of the projects of the Baltimore and Obio railroad, since that road holds majority of the 1878 bonds, But the appointment of receivers to get the canal into condition for sale would not seem to be injurious to any interest, whoever the party might be upon whore application the sppeintment was made. Restoration of the water way, if that were feasible and advisable, would be « method of preparing the canal for sale. If the use of the cana! for railroad purposes were contemplated rival interests to the party foreclosing wuuld buve the opportunity to bid at the foreclosure sale. The bond holders of 1844, whose lien is only upon the revenues of the canal, aro, however, interested in securing its operation under « receiver or throu; lease, and in preventing its sale outright. The proposition to lease, introduced in the Mury- land legislature, will, it is thought, come to nothing in view of the court proceedings pending «and contemplated. Washington wishes, first, the restoration of the waterway, ; if that can be accomplished in such a way as to give promiso of successful operation; or, sec- oud, the speedy establishment of a competing line of railroad along the canal bed, if it is to be devoted to railroad ases. ———— If the car stove were not a fetich of the railway companies we should expect that the numerous holocausts that have occurred re- cently would have some effect on these corpo- rations. The public conscience is somewhat Cisturbed ove the burning of the women and ebildren yesterday near Indianapolis, but the corporation conscience is serene as a mid-May morning. The people are troubled because they have not driven their legislators to fix punishments for such crimes of atrocious negligence. There ought to be some legisla- tion im every state on this subject, and it ought to be rigidly enforced. The car stove has been abolished in New York and other states. Why not in all the states and territories of this Union? Are corporation greed and corpo- ration convenience the standard of legislation? Have the lives of the people no value in the eyes of legislatures when railroad interests are in the w: ————— ‘The decision of the Supreme Court yesterday im the North Carolina bond cases, while im- portant in itself is still more so on account of the fact that it covers a large number of similar suits from Louisiana and other states. In brief the opinion of the court is that a bill will not lie to effect a foreclosure and sale of state stock ia railroads or to obtain possession of property belonging toa state, for the plain reason that the state is a necessary party and under the eleventh amendment of the Constitution can- pot be sued. Many millions of dollars are in- volved in this bond litigation. oo ‘Yhe merchant tailors in national convention deplored the laxity of the customs laws which permit a man coming from Europe to oring in as much clothing for his personul use ashe wishes, aud with reason, for the price a swell American tailor charges for clothes and the price in London or Berlin or Paris allow such a margin that the customer wanting a half dozen suits and acouple of overcoatscan go over and get them and come back at a saving. ‘The question of protection to home industry does not enter because ready-made clothing 1s very nearly as cheap in America as it is in Lon- on. It is merely an enormous price charged those who pay for their clothes in order to equalize the loss on those who will not pay. ———— ee The bill to break up the pernicious practice of carrying concealed arms in the District ought to pass. The suggested provision which confiscates the pistol or other wexpon should be added. Recently Tur Star called atten- tion editorially to the bad effects of the prac- tice of selling at public auction the unclaimed weapons of criminals, The weapon which figures in a violation of the law should neither be returned to the criminal or his representa- tive nor be sold at public auction, but be con- fiscated and destroyed. At these auction sales the weapons bring insignificant prices and an opportunity ix given to the disorderly class of arming itself at small expense. eo The Chicago Herald states that, as a result of protection, the New Jersey potteries are turning outa coffee bean made of clay which caumot be distinguished from the genuine article until it is put into the boiling water. After one has attempted to get a cup of coffee im Chicago he is inclined not only to believe the Heruid, but to believe that the entire public coffee supply of Chicago is imported from New Jersey. Yet Chicago wants the World’s Fair, ———<$—— Chins is slow to anger, but the papers in the Chinese treaty negotiations now made public compel the conclusion that there is a limit to good nature, and in the words of Chang Yen Hoon. if we continue our disregard of diplo- matic obligations, “its effect would create, I fear, & most un rable impression.” —— "The Capital in its new hands has resumed the popular title of the ('ritw instead of taking that Of the Evening News as was tirst proposed.
