6 THE EVENING STAR, TUESDAY, JANUARY 29, 1895-TWELVE PAGES. THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. TUESDAY. . January 29, 180%. CROSBY 5. NOYES. Editor. THE EVENING STAR hasa regular « permanent circulation much more vhan the combined circulation of the othee Washington dailies. As a Kews and Advertisin; it bas no competitor. Im order to avoid delays, on ac- count of personal absence, letters to THE STAR should not be addressed to any individual connected with the office, but simply to THE STAR, or to the Editerial or Business Depart- That the financial condition of the United States is oft of joint will be admitted by all persons Who have even the most remot acquaintance with national affairs; that it | is so thoroughly unsatisfactory as to be termed critical is apparent to every ob- server; that President Cleveland simply did his duty in calling the attention of Con- gress pointedly and vigorously to the crisis and to the necessity for legislative relief will be admitted by all manner of politi- cians. Bvt there comes the parting of the ways; there all semblance of agreement ceases, there harmony is lost in the great unconducted confusion of the gold and sil- ver and wind instruments upon which every public man is, or thinks he is, a mere or less expert performer. Prior to the sending of the message there was universal ovtery for the doing of something; now there is a Babel-like confusion of tongues a3 each segment of all the parties yells veciferously for what it believes to be the erly remedy. It was not to be expected that any financial ideas likely to be ad- | vanced by President Cleveland would meet with the approval of Congress or of any considerable proportion of that hard-to- please body, but not even the evident hope- lessness of wholesale conversion deterred the President from putting directly before the visual organs of the legislative branch of the government the unimpeachable fact that Congress had done nothing to relieve the situation, and the other fact—not to be disposed of by words- that the country | stands face to face with a threatening emergency. All the probabilities are favpr- able to non-financial action by the presen: Congress, so the chances are, therefore, favorable to an exira session of a Congress that, while out of accord with the political beliefs of the Chief Executive, may perhaps be found more capable of harmonious ac- ticn on the nation’s financial problem than the democratic national legislature which is so soon to go into history. — 22 -—__ The ilying-machine movement has now come to the conventior stage. This ts 2 a@tstinct period in the evolutiun of all ad- vanced ideas and the present promise is that the problem of human flight may be solved at a great gathering of all the dis- ciples of Darius Green. This great con- vention of seekers after atmospheric trans- portation is to be called “an aeronautical camp-meeting,’ to be held on Cape Cod. The projector of this mass meeting of flyists points out in a circular that on Cape Cod could be found the necessary se- clusion, scarcity of trees, and steadiness of the wind. These are three great req sites, for publicity and trees might com- bine to produce some terribly embarrassing predicaments. Trees have always been menaces to graceful landings from aerial voyages. They are apt to expose the would-be navigator of the ether to the rude jibes of aa unfeeling world while le is pondering on the problem of how to get down. The prcjector commends the stead- iness of the Cape Cod winds, ard he has apparently arranged for them to prevail throughout the camp-meeting from the sea- side, so as not to depopulate the assembly by dropping individuals into the jealous brine that lashes the beaches of the Cape. An attractive series of experiments has been laid out—a tempting aeronautical menu—as it were, and if the plans are car- ried out successfully It Is hardly to be doubted that the natives of the Cape will experience a religious revival such as they have not known before, when all manner of strange shapes from this novel camp- meeting shall begin to float over their peaceful homes. Verily there will be good reason for them to believe that the judg- ment day has come in real earnest, espe- cially if, as the projector hopes, Herr Lill- enthal, the German flyist, should attend Cape Cod presents one serious obstacle to the plan, however; it has no hills from the summit of which ali this flying is to be done. So the projector proposes to build a hill, cone-shaped, like Lilienthal’s, to make the falling more easily managed and less fatal. He is also willing “to take charge of the soaring-machine experiments and to superintend funds.” He 13 evidently willing, therefore, to share with the Cape Cod Boreas the task of raising the winds, but who is going to guarantee the raising of the flyista? ——__ ++ —__ With the renewal of extreme wintry weather that accompanied last night's heavy snow-fall comes great access of suf- fering to the poor. Up to this time the big-hearted people of Washington have done nobly in the work of relieving those unfortunates who by reason of the phenom- enal financial and industrial depression are cempelled to be subjects of charity. But todsy there are hundreds of men, women and children who must shiver in chilly misery and suffer the pangs of hunger through no real fault of their own; these must be assisted at once. The methods by which assistance may be rendered are xell known; a great stream of benevolence should flow through the channels that lead most directly to the helpless. —_—__+ ++ — continues to issue his non-interest- speeches. —.e —— With the Brooklyn strike about settled ard the disorder consequent upon the struggle almost at an end, it is now proper to look closely into the causes of a dis- turbance that discommoded more than a million people and wrought injury that cannot be repaired. Inquiry of this sort could not easily be made while the strife that required the strong arm of the law to quell it was on; the duty of the hour was the compelling of peace by any and all means within control of the duly consti- tuted authorities. There have been very many unreasonable strikes, but the term unreasonable cannot fairly be applied to the protesting action of the motormen and conductors of the street-car companies whose lines have been comparatively idle for more than a week. For awhile com- pelled to labor a greater number of hours each day than was really fair, and Insuffi- had Coxey bearing ciently compensated, the employes ground for discontent, and these grievances were aggravated by the arbitrary sched- ules which compelled the movement of at rates of speed illegal and so dan- ears gerous that within a comparatively brief period about one hundred persons have been killed by collisions, while many more | have been crippled for life. For mary of | these deaths the motormen and conductors | have been held personally responsible, al- though they were compelled by their em- ployers to operate the cars at a killing | rate of speed or leave the company’s serv- | fee. That the men should rebel against | such conditions is in no sense remarkable, | and when they decided to give up their | places rather than longer continue to oc- cupy such uncomfortable and unprofitable positions the understanding public sym- | pathized sincerely. That the cause of the strikers was just has been admitted ty the companies, for the men who fill the strikers’ places are receiving the ps and the consideration which was demanded | | future it will be completed. by those who are now without employmert, but which were refused by corporations that are deserving only of severe con- demnation. There was no reason why the trolley companies should decline to accede to the rational request made by their skilled servants end then offer the re- jected terms to men who were, in very many instances, entirely without the knowledge needed to perform important duties. It now appears that for failure to reach a peaceful settlement, without in- cenvenience to the public, the companies are responsible; it was a mere caprice that dictated refusal to treat with its own men and later brought about desired conditions through dealings with strangers. Through- out the whole of this trouble the rights of the public have been entirely disre- garded, and to avert a duplication and pos- sible multiplication of the trouble we may lock for many legislative propositions; the one proposition calling upon the com- panies to settle their differences with em- ployes without discommoding the public— when settlement can be easily reached, as it could have been in Brooklyn at any time during the past week—should be imme- diately crystalized into law. This strike, like many others that have taken place, teaches a lesson that cannot safely be dis- tegerded; it thould be plain to the dis- contented wage-earner that the application of violence as a remedy must surely result in failure; for while the public may not be in sympathy with the employers’ end of the coitroversy—and in this case it is not—it cannot and will not tolerate the illegal use of force. + + ____ The McKaig bill designed to reform the republic's public architecture has been en- dorsed by the Secretary of the Treasury and by the architects of the country, and has been approved by the Committee on Public Buildings and Grounds of the House. A vigorous effort would probably result in its passage through Congress, and there can be no question that much money would eventually be saved to the government thereby, as well as considerable scandal and shame. The present system cannot but be productive of poor results and harsh criti- cism. The reform measure has been most carefully revised, and passed from hand to hand until it would appear as though all the loop-holes had been stopped. There is yet time for this plan to be put into the form of law, if the various endorsemen‘s which it has received have been sincere, and not merely perfunctory. ————~+e-____ Students of the mysterious, who imagine that hypnotism may be used to make crim- inals of persons who are really innocent, should investigate the case of Edgar Bell vs. the commonwealth of Kentucky, now in the court of appeals in Frankfort. The appellant, Edgar Bell, is a negro, con- victed of murder, and in his behalf there has been filed at the clerk's office of the court of appeals a “hoodoo bag,” which contains dice, a rabbit's foot and several other articles supposed to be potent as charms. Bell’s claim is that he was hoo- dooed by this bag, and that under the cir- cumstances it was simply impossible for him to do anything else than commit the murder for which he is now in the law's clutches. To the insanity and hypnotism pleas is now added the hoodoo defense. ——- +0 + ____ It is unfortunate that Liliuokalani cannot see fit to follow the example of other dis- tinguished claimants to thrones. If she would issue a manifesto and go on about her Gaily occupations the situation would be far more comfortable to. all concerned. +o When England witnesses this country’s financial helplessness she must be afflicted with certain pengs of regret that she did not take more the advantage of us in various diplomatic dickers. —___-+ ¢ + _____ It is hoped that the promise of a more competent Congress in the future will not be as illusive as the representations which are annually made concerning our baseball club. ———_~+++___ It is a good thing that the newspapers do not discuss society with the critical freedom which society sometimes shows in discussing the newspapers. ———__ + e+ ____ The silver men are justified in regarding the present crisis as a financial cloud with a gold lining. —__—_+ 2. __ SHOOTING STARS. An Evidence of Knowledge. “Does Blykins understand horse races “He must. I never see him at the track.” Solace. “This is great weather,” said the man who is philosophical under all circum- stances, “great weather.” “Is that ironical?” “No. It increases the self esteem of the human race.

Bring me my gum shoes, mother; likewise my umbrell. ‘And a pick and shovel to dig my way through the beautiful which fell; Bring me my rubber ulster, and my head gear, whose sides let down, For I'm going to walk down town, mother; I'm going to walk down town.

It arrives at the result by estimating the number of day’s work required aad dividing that by the actual number of men employed. The building is going up slowly but surely, and some time in the Now, if we apply this method of reckoning to the Bal- timore City College, when can we look for its completion? Some three years ago the old building collapsed. Up to the present time the authorities have decided not to get a better site, but to make use of the old lot. Some consider that this is an achievement and marks progress in the work. It {s even sald that some of the youngest boys at the college are looking forward to seeing in their old age their grandchildren attending the college in the new building. But this can be dismissed as simply the exuberant fancy and char- acteristic hopefulness of youth.
