THE EVENING STAR. — WASHINGTON MONDAY. Sune 26, 1893. cnoser 8. NOYES. THE EVENING STAR bas a regelar and permanent circulation in Washington three times larger than that ofany ether paper the city. As a lecal NEWS paper and Ad- vertising Medium it has ne competiter. Prtvcenn-sin~ amtepamenn nest astenianeat Se With the opportunity of the century within easy reach it seems now as though Irishmen who have cried loudly for home rule would, strangely enough, bring about the defeat of the measure which they. broadly, have advo- cated for years. Dissatisfied with the more | than half loaf offered them by Gladstone the | Parnellites threaten strennous and bitter oppo- sition, heedless of the fact that their cause fs daily losing popularity among those who have hitherto supported the Giadstonian idea. A Year ago and the home rule for Ireland senti- ment was strong throughout England, Scotland and Wales, but the strife which rent the Irish * parliamentary delegation bas had its effect, and the English and Scotch and Welsh are now largely apathetic or worse. If there was no br ste opposition. to tho bill than that put up by English Conservatives the measure ‘would speedily become law, but when those who declare themselves to bo Ireland's friends ex- ert themselves to obstruct no one need be sur- prised if the liberals who follow Gladstone be- come disgusted and insist upon the considera- tion of business which altLough important has been Inid aside to facilitate the movement toward the formation ofan Irish Parliament. With the Parnellites standing squarely in the way, with the Conservatives and Liberal- Unionists aiding and abetting every scheme that promises to upset Glad- stone and -his pet effort, and with apathy that grows daily throughout the entire United Kingdom the chances of the bill are de- creasing rapidly. The remedy is in the hands of the Irish members. Let them get together at onceand remain untted at least until the proposition becomes a statute. This fight for Ireland is undoubtedly the closing struggle of Gladstone's remarkabie career, and when his voice can no longer be heard the Green Isle’s greatest champion will have departed. That his almost superhuman labors should be nuilified by those who ought to aid him is unfortunate; that he should reach the end of his journey only to meet with | treacherous defeat is to be regretted; that the opportunity of @ century is being trampled upon will bring sorrow to the heurts of millions who love the emerald beauty and her struggling offspring. ++ —__ Consequent upon the railroad accident which took place at the Parkville, New York, tunnel, comes the discovery of startling evidence as to the cold-blooded character of at least one rail- road company. To save the difference in ex- pense the company constructed a single-track tunnel for a doubie-track road and then, to pre- vent the possibility of a “head-on” collision within the tunnel, arranged a “dead switch” which was, by ditching oue of the two trains, to save the other from injury. The New York Times says that “this ‘dead switch’ is a mon- strous evidence that the company ‘ook the chance deliberately of slaughtering passen- gers rather than go to the expense of constructing the tunnel for double track, which was the only proper and effective meant of avoiding all danger of col- lision. * * © This coalescence of the east and west tracks in going through the tunnel, with switches and signals on either side operdted by one man, who can see neither train until it gets close to the trap, is a diabolical contrivance which should not have been per- mitted for a single day, and with any proper supervision of the construetion and operation of railroads it would not have been permitted.” ‘It will bardiy be believed by civilized people that the company's regulations required the ewitchman on duty at that point, if he heard two trains coming in opposite directions and liable to meet in the tunnel, to give one the right of way and deliberately throw the other off the track, yet the Times vouches for the ex- istence of such a rule. Washington has bad some rough experiences with steam railroads, | bas been forced to contribute victims to be offered up on the grade-crossing altar, but no such corporate inhumanity as that ancovered by the Parkville disaster has as yet made local appearancs. ——__ ++ —__ Conscienceless and smooth-tongued navi- gators of the Potomac may make frequent and emphatic denial of charges that steamboat racing is indulged in on the river, but the fact remains—and glib falsehood will not cover it up--that many of the boats are overexerted in efforts to catch up with or get away from the craft of competing lines. On Saturday last the | steamers Harry Randall and Wakefield went down the river, the Harry Randall baving on board about four hundred men, women and children. Of course it will be easy to state that there was no competition as to speed, but if there was none then a great many passengers are much mistaken. The Wakefield desired to ¢ross to the Virginia shore, but did not want to fall astern. so she tried to get far enough ahead to cross the Randall's bows—something that did not seem to be possible. The result of the maneuvering was a collision in which, fortu- nately, no one was hurt. That nolives were lost is matter for congratulation, but the con- gratulation should not extend to the officers who were responsible for the rade con‘act of two steamboats that had the great width of the Potomac all to themselves. Some day a large number of Washington's reputable citizens will go out for a holiday and owing to some such carelessness as that of Saturday will never come back any more. And then several fresh water sailors will be glad that prison walls are strong enough to keep out a mob whose endeavors, though illegal, would have in them an element of justice. ee There is a screw loose somewhere in the,na- tion's internal economy when it is possible for one little county to rise up in its independent might and threaten an interruption of diplo- matic relations with a friendly power. In the interest of Inw the United States has entered into treaty negotiations with many peoples and by the terme of those agreements each of the parties pledged itself to assist the other in sub- duing crime. More important than most of ‘these extradition treaties is the one with Canada, for the frequently imperceptible di- ‘viding line is temptingly near and beyond it the guilty often imagine they see sanctuary. ‘That the international understanding has dis- couraged crime may hardly be claimed—the criminal instinct is not so easily suppressed— but that it has done much to bring about the infliction of such punishment as was needed to appease outraged law is certain and every- where admitted. Yet there seems to be danger of the extradition treaty between Canada and the United States becoming a dead letter and all because Wyoming county. Pennsylvania, has either neglected or refused to pay the Canadian authorities the sum of about four bundr dollars, which represents the cost to Cavada arresting Horris Blank and 2 murdered a peddier. escaped captured and extradited, exeented. A di that the Canadian ant to arrest s man who had n murderons assautt in New York unless ~~ York would frst put up a cash gua: tee for the expenses which the Canadian police would incur. The Wyoming countr case was cited and in the face of these further argument was impossible. But the Practical granting of immunity to even one criminal is only a little thing when compared with the display of national weakness brought forth by the incident. Application by Canada to the United States is said to have resulted in an official statemeut which declared Pennsyl- Yania to be responsible, and then, according to the Ottawa telegram, the Canadian govern- ment applied to the state and got no satisfac- THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTO .

The deputy secretary of the common- wealth said when questioned that “the state has nothing whatever todo with the expenses attendant upon the carrying out of a requisi- tion, When tho requisition was asked for Blank and Rosenwig! the request was accompanied by a statement to this effect from District Attorney James C. Frear of Wyoming county.” Attached to the request was District Attorney Frear’s indorsement: “I am satisfied that the expenses attending this extradition of sid fugitives shall be charged upon this county, and will take proper means to obtain them.” Upon that promise the papers were issued, The secretary admitted that the state had received a bill from the Canadian government and said that it had been forwarded | to Wyoming county. “Thus,” said he, “the | matter resta so far as the state of Pennsylvania is concerned. If the Wyoming county people refuse to pay the responsibility rests solely upon them.” Carry this doctrine into business hfe and it will afford infinite relief to thousands of men who have indorsed notes and upset commercial conditions to an uncomfortable ex- tent. Suppose Wyoming county declines to pay the bill and the state bolds on to its present Position, what excuse may the general govern- ment offer and how can it possibly insist that the international contract is valid? The pain- ful position in which the United States finds itself under present circumstances is hardly less embarrassing than that which sprang out of the New Orleans Iynchings, when the general government had to confess that it was power- less, that Louisiana was supreme. A change in the relationship of the states, anything that | tends toward centralization, is far from prob- able at this time, but until some such move- ment takes place treaties with the federal gov- ernment are so much waste paper; they should be negotiated with the several states. ———+ e+ This country has improved in many things, but it has retrograded in its Fourth of July celebrations. There was atime when the pa- triotte orator and the reading of the declara- tion of the independence were tho features of the day. Tnere were perhapsa few muskets fired, and occasionally a sham battle would vivify the memory of scenes which called the holiday into existence. But the barbarous fire cracker and the destructive devil-chaser occu- pied an inconspicuovs and almost ignominious place in the ceremonies. Tho sentiment of the occasion was what counted then and the ex- plosions were entirely subsidiary quantities. But at present the explosions almost monopo- lize the field and the sentiment is only half re- membered. It is suspected in a quiet, unostentatious and respectful manner that Emperor Wilhelm has been devoting some thought to practical polities. ——__++____ Possibly the Fall River detectives aim to do ‘a great work by pointing out to the small boy how different things are in real life from what the dime novel pictures them. . —-e--—___ The Gettysburg veterans exhibit more cour- age than discretion when they declare their readiness to engage in a hand-to-hand conflict with a trolley. ——__+e+—____ Dr. McGlynn’s latest remark is: “I have nothing to say.” This leaves the interviewers a delightfully untestricted imaginative scope. eh ee Secretary Morton knows a good deal about agriculture,—and several things beside.
