THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON. THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON: TUESDAY ......... July 29, 1890, CROSSY 8. NOYES. THE EVENING STAR has the fullest Local Cireulation of any Newspaper in the Werld, and as an Advertising Medium is worth more than all the other papers published in Washington. (iYesterday was lost as District day, and the three preceding District days have been sacri- ficed to the Pennsfivania railroad. The Atkin- son bill stands like a great rock in tho way of local legislation. It is time that this obstruc- tion was removed. The measure should go back to the District committee and be put into such shape as to avoid the antagonisms which have to this time checked it, Washington is tired’of having the railroad play the part of » legislative dog-in-the-manger, unable from its obstinate persistence in unreasonable de- mands to secure legislation for itself, and shut- ting out all useful and noeded i The friends of the Atkinson bill on the District committee are partly responsible for this con- @ition of things. They took snap-judgment on the measure in committee with only a bare quorum present, and have wasted the District's time for two months by discussions with their fellow committeemen concerning amendments which ought to have taken place in the com- mittee room. The considerable amendments to which they now indicate their willingness to assent ought all to have been put in the bill before it was presented to the House, in order that time should be given there only to the consideration of those points in respect to which a committee agreement was hopele: But the main responsibility is upon the rail- road company, which has absolutely refused to make the slightest concessions by way of amendment which would have decreased pub- lie opposition. It has indicated to the Senate District Committee a willingness to make cer- tain changes at some time in the future, which | if embodied in the Atkinson bill would have been considered as showing at least the dispo- sition to deal fairly with the public and would have deprived the opposition to the bill of much of ite strength. But the railroad has been peremptory and obstinate towards the public, asking everything and conceding nothing, and the result has been disastrous to its meas- ure, and incidentally injurious to the District. ——— While it is not quite clear who is responsible for the deplorable accident on the Patapsco below Baltimore last night, it would appear from the accounts, taken togother, that it might have been avoided if the third vessel, the schooner, had not been in the way, bringing confusion into the situation. Of course the schooner, with her tug. had as much right to be im the sufficiently wide channel as any other vessel, and there is no implication in what is known that her people did anything to bring on the catastrophe. The Bay steamer saw the excursion boat a mile off, for it was a clear night The excursion steamer also saw the Bay line boat and signaled for the latter to change its course, but the captain of the Bay steamer says ho could not do so because the schooner was under his port bow. He immediately stopped and backed, however, making several alarm whistles. The people on the Louise, the ex- cursion steamer, invited further disaster by rushing to the side of the boat which was struck. There are two remarks to be made re- specting the duty of the legislature in these cases. 1. The signals should be clearly inteili- Bible, providing for the interposition of a third or other vessel, and tne officers of the law should be held to strict accountability in their enforce- ment, and in subsequent action. 2 The chan- nels near large cities should be so lighted that the course of vessels could be well discerned ata great distance. In this case, it being a clear night, the oficers of the two vessels saw distinctly from afar off the approach of the other steamer. The difficulty seems to have been the eonfasion im getting out of the way of a third vessel and of each other at abont the same time. This fact takes the Virginia- Louise collision out of the common category of water collisions. —$>$_—e——___ Attention is called to the coupon petition printed elsewhere in Tue Stan, It will take only few minutes of time to perform the part of a public-spirited citizen in the mat- ter, and Tus Sram is confident that this time and labor will be cheerfully bestowed. —— The Marquis de Leuville, it is stated, is coming to America with his attorney to sue the American press for libel.
