4 y THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON. D. C.. THURSDAY,’ Zi APRIL. 27. 1893—TEN PAGES. THE EVENING WASHIN STAR. iGTON Apeit 27, 1893. Editor. THE EVENING * STAR has a regular and permanent circulation in Washington three timeslarger than that efany other paperi= the city. As a lecal NEWS paper and Ad- vertisiag Medium It has ne competitor. Much interest is felt not only in American financial cireles but in European marts as to the conference in which Secretary Carlisle and a few representative New York bankers are today to participate. There is great popular curi- osity tosee whether the government or the Danks will come out abead. Secretary Carlisle does not want to issue bonds, but he does want gold, and as the New Yorkers do want bonds and seem to control the gold supply the strug- gle promises to be one of considerable mo- ment. The air is filled with rumors of friction between the two forces, and as the only denials have Wall street as the place of their origin there is probably much trath in the stories, From that region of financial manipulation come tales that have the outward appearance of correctness, but they must be received with @ triffe of suspicion as long as there exists a general belief that the dollar-hunters are trying to squeeze the United States. Perhaps tho most interesting of these narratives that which alleges care- lessness on the part of the President. Two or three New York bankers are said to have called upon the President last Sunday to warn the chief executive that he was not cogni- gant of the anxiety which was disturbing the financial world. Mr. Cleveland is declared to have dixpinyed indifference, which brought forth further and stronger assertions of proba- ble panic from the money kings, and these in turn are credited to have made the President say that if there was any uneasiness the news- papers were responsible for it. That somewhat astonishing accusation was ® surprise, but it was met, so says one who ought to know, by a prompt and just negative. The banker is quoted as saying that the country owes very much to the newspapers at this time: that they had reported the situation with great accuracy, and instead of exaggerating it had done a great deal to prevent the spread of panicky feeling. Going further. the banker said that the admin- istration was indebted to the newspaper press that the situation was not worse; no men were more desirous of fairly representing govern- mental affairs than editors and correspondents. Whether the conversation was in the terms stated or not it is certain that the banker's sen- timents were in the main accurately based. There are a few—very few—partisan sheets that would embarrass the nation if by so doing they could gain temporary political advantage, but the great mass of those who record the daily doings of the government are eminently fair. Defense of the press by those who de- mand the issue of bonds will not, however, hide the fact that Boston's bankers have been much more patriotic than the cash-bandlers of Gotham. The Associated Banks of Boston have tendered gold to the Treasury and for so doing received the thanks of Secretary Carlisle, who in his letter said that if all the banks in the country would imitate the Bostonian ample the present financial situation would soon be changed. and there could be no doubt hereafter as to the ability of the government, with the patriotic assistance of the people, to maintain its credit even under the most unfavorable cir- cumstances. The country will watch closely the contest that is on between Wall street and the administration. ——_~+.—___ The conservative Public Ledger of Phila delphia is the latest recruit of thearmy of illustrated newspapers. On the general sub fect of this form of illustration Harper's Weekly discourses sensibly, cheerfully and hopefully as follows: “The question of ‘cuts’ in the columns of the daily newspapers, if not exactly a burn- ing one, excites more animated comment than many of more importance. There is no more reason why the reader should not receive accurate information or pleasing or satis- fying impressions through the fruits of the engraver's art than there is why be should not be given in legible type the printed matter that is suited to his needs and tastes. ‘That the business of printing pictures, whether once, or seven times, or thirty times, month, may be conducted’ in « manner to make the judicious grieve, or even swear, is something of which the general reader does not need to be informed. But no general | business practice is to be judged by its abuses alone or condemned on account of them. The one thing that the last ualf century of publish- ing. in this and «*!cr countries, has established very clearly 1s that good pictorial work justifies itself wherever it can be achieved. and with this solid fact to go upon the timid or over- sensitive or desperate critic of bad pictorial work may wait With patience for its disappear- ance. The public ery for pictares. The newspa- pers will supply this public demand or perish in the attempt, and soms of them do thus © perish. The character of daily newspaper il- lustration improves each month. So let the casual public personage who has been sacrified in the rudimentary stages of daily newspaper art be of good cheer. The future is full of promise of reward for patient waiting and en- durance. —— 20) A regular and prover inspection of milk abipped into this city will do much to diminish disease, but the inspecting influences must ex- tend to the buildings in which cows are shel- tered. Prof. Leeds, the eminent bacteriologist, has contributed some amazing figures on this subject. They are as convincing as they are alarming. Hesays that “while fresh milk taken from s healthy cow in » clean stable contains almost no bacteria the number present in milk taken from cows in filthy stables sur- passes belief. One sample contained over five million colonies of bacteria in a cubic cen meter (about one-third of a teaspoonful). Another contained fourteen million colonies. A teaspoonful of this milk would contain fifty million colonies of bacteria.” An interstate imspection law is one of the necessities which must be attended to in the near future. ——_ +02 ‘Tue Stan inadvertently reprinted yesterday © newspaper clipping relating the exploded story of a verbal encounter between Attorney General Olney and Hepresentative Wilson. ‘The latter has denied positively that any éuch cccurrence took place, and everybody believes him. —_—__+--+___ New York affords the interesting spectacle of © naval event postponed because of an excess of water. ———— The life-time of the average joke is very great, but the gibe at the American navy may be set down as obsolete. —— The office that goes out to hunt the man gets Waylaid before it ean travel a biock. — The New York electric execution sppears to have slipped ite trolley. ——--+—___ Toa considerable proportion of those who dwell in this highly favored land this is the Sreatest day in the year, for uniess there shall be pluvial trouble the base ball season of 1393 Will be opened. A great multitude will watch the opening process in this city, and upon the verdict to be developed here within a few days much of local interest throughout the summer will depend. It has been stated that the team is stronger than ever, but as that announce- ment makes its appearance as regularly as the boy who sells score cards or the other boy who Peddles peanuts and light lemonade it can- not be depended om. For » long time Washington bas been a tail-ender of the Most persistent sort, yet th» public has not lost entire faith im the successive but never successful varieties of mavagen-ent which have appealed for frequently urdescrved sup- port. There bas always been « tendency to- ‘Ward selling the services of any player who commeneed to develop especial ability and a twelfth rate man to fill the vacancy. One more season of that will put an end to the game in this vicinity. Those who control base ball sey that many popular changes have been made in the rules and that more lively exhibitions of skill and agility will follow naturally. Perhaps so. Lovers of athletic sports hopeso. The amendments have doubtless been wisely framed, for the League must have seen that it was losing its hold upon the people’s confidence, but none of these efforts to regain its old-time grip will amount to much unless there is indisputable evidence of honest ball. If the Washington management will only keep its good players, get rid of its poor onesand endeavor con- scientiously to strive for an honorable place in the manly competition it will have no cause to complain of lack of patronage or feeble sup- port. —— The conviction of Dr. Robert W. Buchanan for murder can be regarded as another victory for theexpert witnesa. Dr. Buchanan'sguilt may be ever so black, but his case, as well as that of Carlyle Harris, suggests the query whether there should not be a change in the system now in vogue, where expert evidence is required to de- termine a case. Could there not be a commis- sion of experts appointed by the court to de- termine the facts upon which expert testimony is required? The report agreed upon by the commission could then be given to the jury to consider along with other facts in the case. As it is @ jury comprising, often, men not especially well qualified to weigh the nice scientific points involved, has to de- pend largely upon the impression created by the most prominent or most plausible of the scientists who are called upon to testify, and when there is direct conflict as there has been in this Buchanan matter perhaps the least sound but most easily understood theory will be accepted. Circumstantial evi- dence has always been properly regarded as dangerous because it is so easily possible for an ingenious man to conneet the accused with the crime, but it is no more uncertain than the testimony of the so-called “experts” of whom two are rarely of one mind. ——_ +«2+—___ Colleges that desire to succeed in the great work of educating and civilizing may as well begin now as any other time to stamp out the evils which are attendant upon college life. Principal among these are the brutalities which mark the hazing customs and the initiatory ceremonies into some of the fraternities. Many times the refined sensibilities of the better peo- ple of the country have been shocked by out- rages committed by those whose hands will do much toward controlling the nation’s future. There is a close relationship between the refine- ments of high-grade culture and the cruelty of the savage, but it should not be permitted to show itself twice in the same place. Ironclad regulations strictly enforcea will do much in the line of prevention, and for those who defy the law and regard not the welfare of their fellow beings there are legal punishments which should promptly be administered. ee Once in a while the city of New York does something for which it should be commended. This it didwhen it caused to be made and erected the statue of Ericsson, which was yesterday unveiled with appropriate ceremo- nies. The memorial is among the best of the statues in the big city and is the first one ever provided by the municipality. Other great men have been immortalized in marble and bronze within the bounds of Gotham, but the monuments have been paid for by private subscription; this testimonial to the great in- ventor is a public work. In years to come there will be overwhelming belief that Ericsson should be honored by the nation rather than by locality, and when that time arrives there will be a national monument to the ingenioas Swede, and it will be located at the national capital. —__+ ++ —__ Prose and poetry have given the Chinaman credit for being a remarkably astute individual.

A foolish youth on springtime flow'rs His errant fancy set. They say, although "twas days ago, The mud hangs round him yet. “It is wrong,” said the poet to the pianist, “for you to flaunt long hair, as I do.” “And why, pray tell me, is it so?” “Because, with the hundred thousand dollars that you earn so easily in America you could, with slight economy, become possessed of the price of « hair cut.” ‘Now comes the base ball season which, With all its mighty clash and clang, May be expected to enrich Our language with new bits of slang. “T understand how it is that fish an’ brain is supposed to go together,” said Uncle Silas, after some thought. “What is the reason?” “It takes heap of mental exercise ter get up the stories they tell about ketchin’ ’em.” LONG DISTANCE COURTSHIP.
