4 THE EVEN NING STAR, SATURDAY, TARY 19, 1895-TWENTY PAGES. ———S THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. BATURDAY...........January 19, 1595. CROSBY 8S. NOYES. — WHE EVENING STAR has a regular and permanent circulation much more vhan the combined circulation of the other Washington dailies. As a News and Advertising Medium it be 10 competitor. ole order to avoid Hono ys, om ace count of pe letters to THE STAR to any individual connected with the office, but simply to THE STAR, or to the Editorial Business Depart- mefits, according to tenor or parpose. ‘The Star fully appreciates all the com- mendatory and complimentary words that come to it from every quarter for its ac- tion in connection with yesterday's “pound party” for the benefit of the poor, and which has proved to be such a potent agency for good, It values most highly all these evidences of good will, but it does not feel that it is entitled to special credit for any effort it has made in that direc- tion. The part taken by The Star in the affair which it fortunately was thoughtful enough to imaugurate,—and -vhich, it is only proper to say here, assumed propor- tions never dreamed of,—was one alike of duty and pleasure. Of duty, because in doing what it did it only lischarged the obligation resting upon all goo: citizens to do everything possible to relieve the needs of the de fering. Of pleasure, titute and sul because its efforts to that end furnished the occasion for bringing into such strong light and efficient agtion the better side of human nature. These reflections are The Star's sufficient reward. As for the part borne by the public, it can only be said that never was a short and simple appeal for help responded to more promptly or more generously. Where all do so nobly, according to their means, it would be invidious, and, indeed, almost impossible, for want of space, to enumer- ate, or to dwell upon the many rotable in- stances of touching significance. Let it suffice, therefore, to say that the aplendid results achieved reflected infimte credit upon every person who aided in any way or degree in bringing them about, and fur- nished f evidence of the most con- vineing character that in generous giving and the prompt performance of good deeds the people of ‘Washington stand unsur- passed, if indeed they are not uaequaled, by these of any cit. in the world. An appeal to them for help in any good cause has never been a vain ery. All honor and praise to them, with that peace born of a con- sciousness of duty well perfosmed. +o 2 The long-expected revolt cf Hawaiian royalists has at last materialized—as Ad- miral Walker confidently predicted it woul¢—and failed. For some time past it has been evident that tne mischievous ele- ments at Honolulu’ were plotting assault upon those whose courage had dispossessed Liliuokalani and smashed the lottery-pro- moting, opium-smuggling ring of desper- adoes whose operations had made the name of Hawaii a byword. Frierds of good gov- ernment for the Islands were not, how: ever, disturbed by the signs of conspiracy to revolt; they knew that the republic was steadily increasing in strength, and that the royalist uprising could result in only one way. It is unfortunate, however, for President Cleveland and Secretary Gresham that the United States had no warship in the harbor of Honolulu when the revolution took place | —and has none yet. Not that the erutser was needed—although American lives and property were at stake—but because the coincidental absence of English and Amertl- can ships and the administration's ver- sistent refusal to send a cruiser there con- firm the suspicion entertained at least in Hawaii of an international understanding to give the royalists all possible oppor- tunity to reguin what they had lost. Great Britain aided in the work by permitting the shipment of arms from Vancouver, but the greatest encouragement given Mrs. Dominis and her ‘supporters was in President Cleveland's decision to keep all ships of our navy away from Hawaii. The State Department appears in this Matter to have taken another step in the wrong direction. The welfare of other nations than America seems to have been its continuous study. It hastened to inter- fere with Japan in behalf of Corea; with Turkey in behalf of the Armenians; and perhaps with France in behalf of the Hovas ot Madagascar; but when the lives and Property of American citizens and the paintully-wrought civilization of a century of American missionary and commercial effort are imperiled by Hawaiian cutthroats and gamblers it is apparently unconcerned. tee The main provisions of the District bond- issue bill, now pending in the Senate, are almost certain, sooner or later, to become law. The vital features of the proposed legislation, as distinguished from flexible and amendable details, are (1) a bond issue for sewer completion, (2) a reversal of the law which practically exempts the national government from financial obligations in respect to the Greater Washington of the Rear future, which lies outside of existing Boundary street, and a bond-issue for comprehensive urban and suburban street extension and improvement, the suburban work not to be undertaken until the in- dispensable preliminary of a reversal of the obligation-repudiating law, above re- ferred to, has been accomplished. Washington's need of a compcehenstve and adequate sewerage system is impera- tive. The evidence of every medical au- thority demonstrates the urgent necessity of this improvement from the sanitary point of view. A commission of competent neers has, after thorough and inielli- gent investigation, reported a plan which is thought to meet the requirements of the and to protect fully in this regard the capitals health. To construct this sewer system piecemeal would be unbust ness like and upnecessarily expensive. The appropriation of one or two hundred thou- sand dollars pow, and of similar sums at intervals of varying lengths for the next forty ov itty years would practically be a w of money. The entire work should be entered upon at one time and at once and pushe@ to a conclusion as speedily a3 possible, in order that the public may profit at the earliest moment by its expen- ditures under this head. The interest and sinking fund annual charge created by the ef sewer bonds should not much exceed the probable annual appropriations for piecemeal sewer work. By the bond issue system the city healthfulness would feel the benefit of the completed sewerage system in a very few years; by the piece- meal system fifty years would elapse be- fore the completion of the work, and by that time, owing to the city’s growth, tht system would probably be inadequate. Washington already, in fact, extends to the boundaries of the District, and the 1 extension of its original street plan, ° as practicable, over the new and an- nexed Washington is reasonably certain to be accomplished. Only national and local idiocy will leave the Greater Washington, constituting an integral part of the capital, with narrow, crooked or curving, and in- harmonious streets, disagreeing among themselves as well as with L'Enfants’ mag- nificent plan. The principal immediate ob- stacle in the way of this wise extension is the existence of a provision in the law of 18% which exempts the national govern- ment from any share in the cost of street improvement beyond Boundary street. This provision was inserted through the high- Wayman labors of a few Congressmen who held up |the measure in the House, and blocked jts passage until their legislative demands were complied with. It represents no public sentiment, either in or out of Congress, and it should, be changed, |as proposed in the Senate bill, at the earlitst opportunity. Why should the only Walshington property-owner who is exempt from sharing the cost of suburban development be that one who is also the largest owner of suburban land, to wit: The natipnal government? One who lives in Washington and owns no county prop- erty contributes in his taxes to suburban development, because, being a Washington property-owner, he is also a District prop- erty-owner, and District taxation ought to be expended equitably in all parts of the District. Uncle Sam is a proper contribu- tor to county development on precisely the same grounds; with the additional reason in his cage that he is also a large suburban property-owner. It is neither wise nor just to draw an ar- bitrary line through the federal district and to say that so much of the national capita) is national and so much fs not; that up to this point the nation is concerned, but be- yond this point its interest and obligation cease. The repudiated portion will be, per- haps, the most beautiful section of the Greater Washington of the immediate future; it is under the exclusive jurisdic- tion of Congress, like all cther parts of the capital; its people pay taxes which go. in part, to meet expenditures connected with the original city for which the nation has conf}ssed and assumed pecuniary obli- gation; and the nation which has the same power of exclusive legislation in respect to it also| owas almost the same percentage of property in it as it now possesses in the original \Vashington. The street plan to be extended) over it is that of L’Enfant'’s Washing;on, with the broad avenues and, beat tiful) reservations that are suitable to the cepital of Fraace, or the American re- public, but that are grossly extravagant and unsuitable in the case of a self-de- veloping, self-supporting suburban village, which the county would become, if re- pudiated jas un integral part of the capital. If all these aims of the bond-issue propo- sition can be accomplished the sooner suc- cess is attained the better. The quicker the necessery sewers are laid the greater the decrease of sickness and death in the city. The soorer the street extensions are made tn less costly to the community and the less) harassing to individuals this necessary work will be. The more speedily correction is made of the bad precedent of this indifect and cowardly evasion of pro- portionate contributio1 by the general gov- ernment |and the citizens of the District teward municipal expenses in all parts of the federal District, the better for all con- cerned. {f under proper conditions these Necessary public works can be. begun dur- ing the [present period of depression so much th¢ becter for thousands of the local unemployed and those dependent upon them, | But so| far as street extension is con- cerned, the principle of proportionate con- tribution is, as affirmed by the board of trade, “a vital feature of the proposed legisiation,” a just principle, whose main- tenance is most essential to the well-being of the capital. Street extension must be secured In the manner proposed by the Senate Hill, in opposition to the House committee's proposal, or the District can- THE WEEK. Interest was given to the Senate proceed- ings Monday by speeches of Senator Gor- man and Senator Hill on various phases of the tariff and financial situation; at times the debate took on an added interest from the keen personal criticism and satire they directed at each other. Another chapter to the financial question was added in the Senate Thursday when Mr. Sherman pre- sented an emerg2ncy currency bill to meet treasury deticiencies, and Mr. Pugh offered @ mcisure in the same line, making a vig- orous speech on the inaction of the Senate in the face of a grave exigency. In the Senate Mr. Hill's prepesition to refer the legality of the !ncome tax to the courts was defeated, only five Senators joining with Mr. Hill in supporting the proposition. The pension bill, appropriating $141,000,000, was passed with two important amend- ments, one making $6 the lowest rate for pension disability and another repealing tne present law cutting off the pensions of non-residents. The bill served as a text for sharp criticism against the administra- tion of the pension office. Mr. E. Ellery Anderson presented a memorial from the stockholders of the Union Pacific, offering Tito raise a sum sufficient to pay all bonds which have priority cver the lien of the United States, in consideration of an ex- tension of the debt of the United States for fifty years at 2 per cent. The S,ouse judiciary commitiee considered the charges against Judge Ricks of Clevelane and _re- ported in favor of his impeachment. The House territories committee agreed to re- port a bill to confine the issue of liquor licenses in Alaska to white people, and also a bill giving Alaska a delegate in Congress. President Cleveland sent to Congress the correspondence bearing upon the case of the Japanese delivered by the United States consul in China to the Chinese authorities, and beheaded. The Dover National Bank of Dover, N. H., was forced to suspend on ac- count of the defalcation of the cashier, Isaac F. Abbott, who committed suicide. Alt but one of the trolley lines in Brook- lyn were tied np, the men going on a strike. Considerable viclence has occurred. At a turbulent convention in Philadelphia ex-Gov.Pattison was nominated by the dem- ocrats for mayor. Daniel H. Hastings was inaugurated at Harrishurg as governor of Pennsylvania) Gov. Marvil was inaugu- rated at Dover, Del. A series of powder ex- plosions at Butte, Mont., killed 53 men and wounded many mere. Twenty skilled workmen in the Hcmestead steel mill were discharged because they attended a meet ing to discuss orgarization. Capt. James H. Tillman and B. B. Evans had a contro- versy in Columbia, S.

A division of the Sons of Veterans is to be formed, to be made up of colored camps, in the south. Senators Wol- cott, McMillan and Boar were re-elected Lee Mentle and Thos. H. Carter were elec: ed Senators from Montana, J. C. Pritchard and Marion Butler from North Carolina, John M. Thurston from Nebraska, and Gen. Sewell was nominated in New Jersey. Bal- loting for United States Senator began in Idaho, Delaware, Kansas and Minnesota. Abroad. The resignation of President Casimir- Perier of France, following closely on the resignatio. of the Dupuy ministry, was the sensvtion of the week. In two days the national assembly met and M. Felix Faure was elected president. His nearest opponent was M. Henri Brisson, president of the chamber of deputies, who led him on the first hailot, put was defeated by votes on the second ballot. The trial of sixteen ararchists, including the notorious Jogolchowski, was begun at Liege, Bel- g.um. The captain of the gendarmes of Kausa has beer called to Constantinople not afforjl to secure it at all. a soe The attention of the District Commis- sioners is directed to the communication in another cobimn headed: “Disregard of Maryland luw by District authorities.” | The srog-shop nuisance existing on! Brightweod avenue all the way out to the District line is thoroughly discreditable :o the District authorities and to the police. The resjectubie citizens in the neighbor- hood have ‘protested again and again against [this evil without effect. These grog-shops are not only a nuisance to the immediaie neighborhood, but their evil in- fluence (xtends far out into the country. The people of Montgumery county, who, without regard to politics, uhited to get rid of the liquor selling that was so demoral- izing to farm labor, have found the good effects of their reform measure frustrated by the liquor shops authorized by the Dis- trict government close to the District line. Teamste?s sent to the Washington mar- ket are tempted by these grog-shop spi- ders to Ipave their teams unguarded on the road while they fuddle their brains and waste their time at the bars inside. It has been! a common thing to see the whole roadway! in front of these places occupied to be punished for ill-treating Mr. Hub- bard, an American missionary. Arctic travelers in Europe express fears for the safety of the members of the nsen arctic expedition. Mail advices received at Vancouver from China say the cowardly Chinese generals and admirals are to be executed. Public Prosecutor Celli of Milan was murdered by a supposed anarchist. The Spanish ministry determined to es- tablish reforms in Cvka. The sudden flood- ing of a mine at Audley, North Statford- shire, caused the loss of a score or more of lives. The Italians have defeated the Abyssinians near Coatit with heavy loss to the latter. An explosion of a quantity of gunpowder in a tin box in front of the former residence of Prince Victor Napo- Jeon ‘caused considerable excitement In “aris. In the District. Active sympathy of the most practical sort has come to the front during the past week in connection with the thoroushiy planned endeavor being made to relieve the four of this city. ‘The citizens’ central relief counmiitee issued an appeal which was immediately productive of good re- suits, among the subscriptions being a no- table one of &,000 by Mr. and Mrs. John R. McLean. The Star orgaaized and con- ducted a gratifyingly successful “pound party;” the attendance was much greater than had heen anticipated, and the quan- tity of provisions and the amount »f mon- ey donated considerably in advance of even the most liberal estimate. Considerable by unwatched teams while the drivers were carousing inside, and very many seri- ous accidents have occurred in conse- quence. (It was not long ago that a citi- zen of Washington had almost a miracu- lous escépe from death from being thrown from his| buggy by encountering a runaway team, the driver of which was boozing in one these dens. He escaped with his life, but his (ariage was wrecked and a valua- ble horse wus ruined. This is but one in- stance out of hundreds of the evils result- ing from the grog-shop nuisance on Bright- wood avenue, and it is quite time the Commissioners and the police paid some attention to the matter. —_—_ + «> ___ A few lmembers of Congress have some- how gotten hold of the notion that the only way to build a new Governinent Printing Office quickly Is to surrender to the advo- cates of |the Mahone site and buy that lot, whatever its qualifications may or may not be. The |purchase of this much-advertised plece of ground and a quick replacing of the old shell by a new building are not by any means synonymous terms. If haste be the requisite, and it would appear to be such, it Surely seems as though the better plan would be to extend the preseat site, and so gave time «nd money by utilizing the existirg plar.t of pipe and wire service. Yet The) Star is not the advocate of any site. What !t wants is a new building, and @ speedily-erected one. What it most de- sires is action of some sort, and if Con- gress in its control of the situation decides to buy the Mahone site, so be it. Only, let there be ro more silly and dangerous delay. —_-—_ ee ‘There were one hundred and twenty-seven men at Work on the new city post-office building today, according to the official re- pert.

The Upper Two Stories — Of the Arcade Building, Which have been recently used AS PRIVATE OF- FICE QUARTERS FOR THE VARIOUS OFFICERS OF THE DISTRICT MILITIA, embracing about 50 large rooms, with a wide hallway running through the center in both -storigs from east to west, con- necting with the wide iron veranda on the first story and fron passageway and elabor- ate bridge to Pennsylvania avenue through the center of Market Park, also by iron walks to the main market buildings and clevators, will also be for lease on and after February Ist.

At or abot the time this new building was com- pleted some exterprising gentlemen were negotiat- ing for this very desirable location and new build- ing to be used as a Grand Bazaar and an adjunct to the great Central Market fur the keeping and sale of every class and variety of goods or articles so that any person entering the market grounds from Pennsylvania avenue, 7th, 9th or B streets would find in this Arcade Building, divided into 100 sections, 2 regular John Wanamaker store and bazsar, for which the building is now admirably adapted. This use, howerer, was abandoned tem- porarily for the occupancy of the District militia, but could now be carried out by the use of the Arcade Bullding for a sectional variety store, and twenty sections or rooms could be easily fitted up ‘on the first floor from the avenue, south side, next to the market proper, for flowers, with glass fronts, in which cold air could be introduced from the cold storage pipes below and warm air from the steam pipes above, each to be turned on al- ternately when required, and thus flowers and plauts could be kept in this floral section of the bazaar in as fresh and safe conditjon until sold and delivered as If they had remained in the hot house where they were grown.
