_THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. permanent circulation in Washington three mes larger than that efany ether paper i= city. As a lecal NEWS paper and Ad- Yertising Medium it has ne competiter. —————————— For some reason which at this distance from the scene of action is not easily visible there is ‘mental disturbance in Pittsburg and at Home- stead because the attorneys for the Amalga- ‘tmated Association of Iron and Steel Workers notified the district attorney for Allegheny county that they had no desire for further liti- gation im the cases against Chairman H. C. Frick, Vice Chairman Leisham, Secretary Love- Joy, Otis Childs and Superintendent Potter of ‘the Carnegie Company, and Robert and William Pinkerton and all the Pinkerton watchmen who are alive to tell the story of their experiences at Homestead. Very frankly the workmen's at- torneys say that “‘after repeated and full ex- amination of all the evidence bearing upon the ceases” they are “fully satisfied that no Just cause existed for the finding of an indictment of murder or any other-criminal offense against the laws of the commonwealth of Pennsylvania Out of a sense of justice,” say they, “we join in a re- quest that no further proceedings be had.” ‘Why any one should become excited over this » action—for it resulted in the indictments being quashed—is far from easy of understanding. Even when Homestead was at white heat there was nota man of any prominence among the strikers who believed fora moment that any kind of @ case could be made out against the Carnegie officials, while those who looked at the situation without prejudice could not but smile at the mere idea, The story has often been told, but some people either cannot or will not understand it. The Carnegie Com- pany had a disagreement with the Amalgamated Association over the wage-scale snd. the primary result was the shutting down of the works. Declining to have further dealings ‘with the association, the company prepared to operate its mills with non-union labor and to protect this labor engaged three hundred Pinkerton watchmen. Upon the approach of these latter the strikers used firearms, broke into the company’s works and defied the watch- men to land on the company's property. In the battle which ensued not less than fifteen men were killed and no one knows how many wounded. Finally, after several attempts had been made to blow them up with dynamite and burn them with oil, the watchmen surrendered and were brutally beaten by a mob of infuriated men and women. To preserve order the governor of Pennsylvania ordered two brigades of state troops to Homestead, and these or portions of them remained until peace was assured. Those are the plain, unvarnished, perpendicular and unastailable facts. If any fair-minded being can find in them any evidence of lawlessness on the part of the company the discovery will be ‘worth talking about. Reputable workingmon have long since condemned the murderous fury of the strikers. Why should the attorneys be Jess honest? ———— += The New York Times is crusading against the inopvortane-appearing summer car, and in the { course of its argument says that ‘“‘once the \ summer vehicies are hanled out of the stables ther are Rept in use, though the mercury sink to the freezing point and the wind blow fiercely from the east” ‘That statement is undoubt- edly accurate and it will fit more cities than one, but the people of Washington know no such suffering when they are at home. Our street milway system isin parta trifle ancient, but most of the superintendents are possessed of common sense, so they aim to give ‘uusears that are in general accord with the weather. Come to Washington and live, neigh- Dor. It is the most comfortable place of abode on this or any other continent. ———__16e____.. Anti-treating leagues are being organized in more than one city in this country. They should be encouraged. There is no more sense- Jess custom prevalent and few more dangerous to weak characters than that which insists that because two men have drunk once they must drink again simply “to be sociable.” A large Proportion of the human wrecks that are float- ing toward the Potter's Field on an alcoholic sea Jost their sense of manliness and acquired the habit of intoxication through the “treating” ‘custom. —-+++—___. People decline to learn by experience. New schemes for deceiving are invented, and some of them very clever. But the reliable ones—the old-fashioned bunco, green-goods and monte games that every man who knows how to read should know all about—are the ones that are to be relied on for actual results. Man is a great animal, but ia some respects he is decidedly slow. —_~+e-— = Mr. Cleveland's anti-canard sentiments are evidently strong. When he gets his mind made up he promptly takes the public into his confi- dence. ——_ wee —___ Dr. McGlynn’s protracted silence has given ise to the rumor that he is “in retreat” in the ‘Trappist Monastery near Lexington, Ky. But where is Charley Mitchell see ‘The report of the appearance of cholera in ‘Turkey in Asia bas not and is not likely to have a great deal of significance for the people of ‘this country. ——_ +++ ___ With a reversal of the figures as to operating cost in favor of the storage-battery system it is not easy to see what defense the overhead- trolley advocates will make in favor of multi- plying their obstructive poles and deadly wires. ‘From the time when inventors first endeavored to apply the storage battery to street-car pro- pulsion the trolley capitalists have had a tre- mendous club in the greater cost of the bat- teries,and with that unreasoning weapon brained many an argument and flattened some of the brightest hopes. But the club is useless now; it is nothing more than an archwological relic of the most fragile description. In this city menof mindand money have experimented with storage batteries for at least six or seven Fearsand their patient endeavor is about to bear fruit, but it is questionable whether their productcan beoperatedas cheaply as that which isattracting a great deal of well-deserved at- tention in the little town of Milford, Masa. ‘There the storage battery is being worked suc- cessfully over more thar six miles of track ‘that are curved and graded to such an extent as make the test most thorough. In the pres- ence of a special committee of the Hartford common coun-il the grades were ascended at the rate of six miles an hour, and in one instance twoandabalf miles were traversed in eleven minutes. Brakes were so effective as to stop the cars within sixty feet when the rate of speed was eighteen wiles an hour. The batteries combine lightness and endurance; can be ebanged in two minutes and are good for a run of twenty-five miles. But the decreased cost is the attractive feature of the new sys- tem. Leaving out of the question cars and track, a trolley line consumes 24,000 per mile im equipment. Duplicate storage batteries for each of these battery cars cost $2,200. A trolley line twenty miles long cannct be equipped for less than $80,000, but thirty storage-battery cars—the number necessary to ® rewouably good suburban service—can be 4 up as permanently for $66,000. Discussixg this important discovery the Hartford committee proceeded to institute a comparison as to the operating cost, taking the trolley road at Springfield, Mase..as an ex- ample of the overhead motor. ‘The Springfield © is said to be the best constructed and most emically operated trolley road in the country. It gets its current cheaply from the electric light company and runs at a cost of three cents per ear mile—three dollars per di @f 100 miles or $1,095 per annum. The storage | battery system, which works so admirably at Milford, is guaranteed for $219 per car per day or €300 per annum, Added to this, how- ever, must be the cost of recharging the bat- teries, which will amount to something like 75 cents per day for each car, so that in the end there 1s but little difference in the operating cost. It should be noted though—the Phila- delphia Press makes the point—that the Springfield trolley system is ron at an un- usually low cost on account of the electricity being furnished by the samo company that lights the city, the same machinery being used for both purposes and only = small percentage of the power being lost; conditions that proba- bly do not exist in more than three or four towns in the country and that certainly are not known here. Of all the methods of street car which renders each vehicle distinctly inde- pendent. The cable and the underground trolley are the best systems now at work, but the day is undoubtedly at hand when an inex- pensive and practical storage battery will take the first place among street car motors, ——___ +++ -—__ ‘The Court of Appeals decides that the new license law which explicitly prohibits the sale of liquor in the District except in accordance with ite provisions does not prohibit such sale by vir- tue of licenses granted under the old repealed law. It is held that these licenses are not con- tracts and that the new law could destroy them unconditionally if it so intended; that the old law under which they were granted is repealed by the new law, but that thelicenses themselves, not being explicitly annulled, su vive. The prevailing idea of the opinion of the court isthat to absolutely destroy the old licenses would be harsh and unreasonable, and as the new law does not say specifically that these licenses to sell are annulled, and only prohibits generally sales not directly au- thorized by its provisions the court refuses to construe the law as intending this result. Chief Justice Alvey in his dissenting opinion points out sharsh and unreasonable result, 40 far as the public is concerned, of the construction placed upon the law by the majority of the court. Under a de- cision which leaves nothing undestroyed of the old law but the privilege to sell liquor granted under it, the liquor dealers selling under the old licenses can- not be punished for violations of the restrictive regulations coupled with their licenses. They cannot be prosecuted under the‘old law for selling on Sunday or to minors, for the old law is repealed. They cannot be pros- ecuted under the new law, because its restrictive regulations: aro in terms limited in their applitation to those obtaining licenses in accordance with its provisions. It looks very much as if the ap- pellate court in the effort to protect one class of citizens{against a harsh and unreason- able construction of the law had subjected the whole community to absolutely unre- stricted liquor selling by the cli licensees until the Ist of next November. And this result is accomplished in construing a law which was intended to stiffen the legal penalties provisions, in view of a court decision which indicated weakness in the then existing law in this particular. — +42 Competition among Brooklyn saloon keepers trast be very keen.

A ROYAL FLUSH. “Did you ever seo a royal flush?” said one sporting man to another. “Yep. Saw one the other day.” ‘Where? “In New York.

People always talk about puttin’ sand in sugar. If sugar gets any cheaper'n it is now I expect to see builders buyin’ it to adulterate their saad with.” “Is it hot enough for you?” The questioner dodged instinctively, but the person whom he addressed did not move. He simply looked sad—sosad that the other, rude and calloused as he was, relerited. “I beg your pardon,” he said, humbly. “Don’t bother,” was the reply. “There is a certain streak of cruelty in human natare that is constantly being brought before my atten- tion. Itis he who suffers most who is most affiicted.”” “Does that question make you suffer more than it does other people?” “It does.” “Why?” “Tam in the stove and range business.” ‘The annnal summer lament of the man witha large family: “Break, break, break On your cold gray stones, oh sea! ‘Though your best you may do you will never become, s, As broke as you'll soon leave me.” DURING A SHOWER.
