6 THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. FRIDAY..............-..- April 26, 1895. CROSBY 8. NOY! Eaitor. THE EVENING STAR has a regular and permanent circalation much more than the combined circulation of the other Washington dailies. As a News and Advertising Medium it has no competitor. t7In order to avoid delays, on ac- count of personal absence, Ictters to THE STAR should not be addressed to any individaal connected with the office, simply to THE STAR, or to the torial or Business Depari- ments, according to tenor er purpose. vt of Fauquier The proszcuting offic ceunty, Va., comes to Washington with a Lill of damzges for expe caused by the fection of the town of Catlett's station with small-pox, by a woman who fled from the Di t while suffering from that di: ease. Virginia may be aggrieved that the small-pox was taken within her borders any one. It is a.terrible visitation, and that should be prevented by the exercis Y¥ possible precaution. The woman . however, did so of her own voli- ne s of the District, nor was she under their care when she ezcaped from the limits of diction. She must be classed as a “visitation of Providence.” To claim damages for the cost of fumigating her heuse and the houses of the settlement where she spread the disease is just as reasonable as for the District to ask that the stat Vermont should pay for’ all the trouble that was caused to the people of the capita! by the entire outbreak, which started from a case that was originally encountered in that state. Each state and territory must take the most rigid precau- tions, and, having taken them, must abide by the results tion from other resions, be established an endl sponsibility, socn be chasing each other around the world like the sparks of an electric current. There being no such thing as the spon- taneous germination of the disease, some- body, under this theory, must pay for causing contagion. But there is another consideration prompted by this act of the prosecuting officer of Fauquier county, which is even more plain in its logic. Granted, for the sake of argument, that a Lill of damages might lie against the District for the in- fection of Catlett's Station, there would then lie against the state of Virginia a tremendous set-off, caused by the importa- ticn into the District of the germs of im- irérality and crime from the plague spots that rest in security en the Virginia shore just across the Potomac from this juris- diction. With Jackson City and Rosslyn sapping the strength and menacing the peace of the capital every hour of the day | and night, and every day of the week, and else th chain of re- and bills of damages would with Virginia's officials practically inert in the matter, the District has the best of sons to complain. Nor can the condition City and the neighboring pest » classed as a “visitation of Provi- dence.” A Lttle energy, a little prudence, a little decision, a little determination to enforce the laws, and the city of Washing- nid not now be terrorized by the cemmunities of thieves, gamblers, thugs der county. Jackson City a part of the territory of the Dis but it is nov and held by V! It is the function of the state to cleanse it. But St. Asaph’s is rapidly becoming as much of a ruisance as the Alexander Island track, which has been the cause of most of the trouble. With two outlaw tracks within the borders of the state, and within half an hour of the city of Wash- ington, bills of damages may soon be brought against Virginia for the cost of disinfecting the national capital from the germs of a moral pestilence. ———— Of the institutions that will in the near future give to the nattonai capital at ieast continental Supremacy as an educational center one of the most conspicuous at this time is the Protestant Episcopal Cathedral; its present especial prominence being due to the preparations which are being made to establish, in connection with the cathed- ral, a girls’ school that will not be out- ranked by any seminary in the world. To found this school, Mrs. Hearst, widow of the late Seaator from California, has made libero! contributions, and in August work upon tke school building will begin. As Washingtonians generally understand, the cathedral plan is exceedingly broad, the charter given by Congress providing for the establishment of not merely an impos- ing religious edifice, but also for the founding of benevolent enterprises and all such structures as are necessary to ad- vanced mental! ond spiritual thought and to the varievies of action that are the re- alt of those generous impulses which im- pel men to the betterment of their fellow- beings. It is but reasonable to expect that some of the fortunate ones who are the possessors of large means will do what they can to encourage materialization of a plan that contemplates a most notable ad- dition to the ¢ and refining influ- ences that are beginning to receive due ap- preciation in this land. — one hundred and seventeen don the elty post-otlice build- e increase in foree being t a small consignment » iron has been recetved.

That Engiard will ultimately se- cure the money it is after is almost cer- tain, but ft looks as though It was Nica- ragua’s intent to make the work of col- lection as difficult and disagreeable as possible; probably because of an {dea that the oceupation of Corinto may result in com- plicati that will compel antl-British action by the United States. If the govern- me or peopie of Nicaragua have any such notien as that in their heads, they have been deceived. With some other adminis- tration in power there might be a chance for so much of American intervention as at least prevent unjust and exorbi- demands by European governments, tant but no movement in that direction by those sent our national authori- ties could reasonably be looked for. The determination to refrain from anything that could possibly be mistaken for inter- vention is very strong, the administration even having gone to the extreme of or- dering away from the vicinity of Corinto all United States ships of war that by any possibility could be present at the time when the British demonstration takes place. Such avoidance of a port where mbre or less of physical conflict Is not en- tirely improbable is a legitimate topic for comment; it is safe to say that if United States forces were about to do what Eng- land’s representatives in the central Pa- eific will do tomorrow, there would al- most surely be present quite as many Brit- who are at pr THE EVENING STAR, FRIDAY, .APRIL 26, 1895-TWELVE PAGES. ish men-of-war as are now at Co- rinto. Unofficially it has been announced that the interests of citizens of the United States at and near Corinto will be cared for on this momentous occasion by British officers. Now, if Corinto was in a very remote region, beyond the easy reach of an United States cruiser, it might be the proper thing to make such an arrangement with the British authorities as appears to have been made in the present instance, but with circumstances as they are It is not easy for the American people to under- stand why, when even weak little Nica- ragua is making at least a show of op- position, the great republic of the north should withdraw itself entirely frora a sit- uation in which it cannot be otherwise than dee and, it may be, even vitally interested. The evident lack of concern di played by this administration in this mat- ter promises to bear fruit—whether good or bad remains to be seen—in the near future. Encouraged by john Bull's success in hynotizing Uncle Sam, France has started In to take advantage of the situ- ation. The Paris correspondent of the Lon- don Daily News says that the British ulti- matum to Nicaragua fs strongly approved at the French capital. “France’s own r lations to the South American republics,” says this same authority, “have been very factory lately. She has sent an ul- n to San Domingo and probably will 4 another to Venezuela.” That other n nations who have or who want agine that they have grievances st nations of Central and South 4 ica will hereafter be at ali backward is not Mkely, and the chances are that out ef the complications that promise to en- sue will come trouble enough to make the American people wish that some other sort ef policy had been pursued in the case which is now attracting world-wide atten- tion. British demands today might be shown in court to be reasonable, but the habit of insisting upon the gun-muzzle payment of indemnities is likely to grow and to reach uns@asonable proportions quite speedily. When the history of the Corinto incident is written it may easily be made ar that the United States blundered. to + + »___—_ Steadily increasing interest has been shown in the Iccal discussion as to the ad- visability of putting into practice the po- tato-growing plan for the relief of poverty- stricken residents of the national capital, and just now individuals and organizations are engaged in considering methods by which the scheme can be given practical tence and the experiment fairly tested. e At the earliest possible moment there should be a “getting together’ of those who see in the execution of this plan ma- terial betterment of a distressing physical condition. The Associated Charities has already displayed a desire to act; the Board of Trade will tonight deal with the proposi- tion; the Citizens’ Central Rellef Committee is to take the matter up tomorrow, and it will be the subject for consideration by the Civic Center very soon. Disjointed action by these bodies will, of course, be very much better than no action at all, but to secure the best result there ought to be co- operation. The problem of urban poverty is one that will not soon or easily be , but this potato-raiging proposition ses to aid real philanthropists in ng a condition that is now so- y disturbing and vicious, and that if nitted to grow must become a national menace. ——__ + e+ _____- England has decided that the best way to get a grip on Nicaragua is to entangle it in the meshes of the installment plan. ee SHOOTING STARS.

If the President and Secretary Gresham had been quick-witted, twey Would not have entered into any ¢ with the British ambassador. They would either hav sumed indifference to what 28 going on, or else they would have held Great Britain responsible for the conse- quences and have declined to sanction in advance any aggressive measures. If they had taken that line of action, they would have been in a position to make the occu- pation of Corinto the ground cf justifica- tion for the abrogation of the Clayton-Bul- "tis your From the wer convention. Nothing can be clearer the fact that under the convention Great tain has not the right either to apy or to exercise dominion over one foot of territory in Central America.
