4 THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. S3ATURDAY.... June 22, 1895. CROSBY S. NOYES................Editor. THE EVENING STAR has a regular and permanent cirenlation much more than the combined ¢ireulation of the other Washington dailies. As a News and Advertising Medium it has no competitor. 7 In 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 Editorial or Business Depart- ments, according to tenor or purpose. ‘The final report of the citizens’ committee that had Im charge the raising and handling of the fund for the relief of the sufferers of the Ford’s Theater disaster and their families shows that a vast amount of good can be accomplished in this city by prompt and harmonious action by the citizens. Chairman Douglass’ remarks in explanation of the work demonstrate that no time was lost before a meeting of sympathetic citizens was called dnd that the work of starting the collection of funds was immediately begun. It is safe to say that through this prompt and effective service the disaster was followed by practically no financial distress on the part of the families that were left destitute by the death of their supporters. To raise a fund of over thirty- six thousand dollars was in itself, under the existing conditions, a feat deserving of high praise, and to so administer the fund as to obtain a maximum of results with the minimum of expense is an achiev ment that is worthy of additional com- mendation. The citizens of Washington are proverbially generous, although fortunately they have few calls upon their purses and their charitable instincts by such terrible calamities as that which called the Ford's Theater relief committee into existe As Chairman Douglass well says, the city had a short time previous to this disaster shown its prompt willingness to assist the suffering by subscribing fifty thousand dol- lars for the aid of the unfortunates who jost their all in the great Johnstown flood. Few cities can exceed this record, and it is not a violent presumption that Wash- ington is well equipped with public-spirited and beneficent citizens. —_—+-« =____—_ Religious people all over the country will doubtless be interested in the new movement, originating in this city, which seeks to establish missions and similar means for the spread of the gospel in all the large cities of the land. This project springs from the prosperous and success- ful career of the Washington Central Union Mission, which everybody now recognizes .as one of the best institutions existing within the District. The mission work that is to be now nationalized is to be an adjunct to the churches, and will not in any way antagonize or interfere with the regularly established places of worship. There is undoubtedly in every city a vast and untouched field for religious effort, especially in the large communities, where there are thousands of men and women who, from the nature of their environ- ments, have no opportunities to come into touch with purifying and elevating influ- ences and whom the churches, as a rule, do not reach. The records of the local mission are filled with cases where® bad lives have been reformed, and it is sc- knowledged among all sociologists that to draw one evil-doer from wrong paths is to do more to undermine the fabric of vice and crime than to punish a hundred ty process of law. This is a matter that ap- peals to the best interests of citizens who may not be actively interested in religious work, for there is always a danger that the city’s Slims may contaminate the better quarters, and these missions are the most effective means at hand for the purification of the morally foul corners of a com- munity. —_ + ee —__ it seems curious to Americans, accus- tomed as they are to regular intervals be- tween political chan: for a crisis to be precipitated in the English government by such a comparatively small matter as the discovery pf an insignificant shortage in the accounts of a subordinate of the Sec- retary of War. On this side the matter would result in an investigation, followed perhaps by the removal of the offending official, and the country would be undis- turbed by an appeal to its suffrage. The experience in this country is that great national campaigns are not conducive to the highest degree of commercial prosper- ity, but that they tend to unsettle business conditions. The usual course of an English government is marked by a gradual dimi- nution of the majority which it at first se- cures, the falling off of vote after vote un- til by a sudden tactical move of the enemy or by a pure accident the party in power is defeated on some such unimportant matter as that which has now caused’ the crisis that has been impending for some weeks. —_—_ + «+ -___ Fifty-eight men were reported today as being employed on the post office building, these being the figures furnished by the superintendent. A terrible rumor is abroad that during the past few days there have really been no men engaged on the work, notwithstanding the official state ments. Fifty-eight men will be no more ef- fective than no men in verifying the mural prediction of the date of the building's completion. -— oe —____ One of the few representatives of na- tional interests who wants silver is the Emperor of China.

T state will not insist on keeping its social garbage can on Washington's door-step, + oe ‘The recent trip of the torpedo boat Cush- ing 1 Jacksonville, Florida, to Brook- lyn, New York, was made without exposing her except for a smail fraction of the ti to a possible assault from the sea, and dem rated still ®urther the possibili of establishing an inland route along al- Most the entire Atlantic seaboard, to be used In case of war by supply vessels and torpedo boats which could not weil go to sea und stand the assaults of an enemy's fleet. The eastern seaboard of the.United States is exceptionally well fitted for the development of a series of partially land- locked channels, and in this respect it is peculiarly fortunate, for the chief danger of this country has always been that its mest populous and most prosperous coast shculd be so sadly expcsed on the side from which the most seri assault would Naturally come. To fortify the easter edge of the country would cost an eno mous sum, and It would probably be wholly out of question to try to make thesentire ble. Nor would it be an al plan to provide a Y suffi- to grant to each imporiant sive fleet, for by the time the United Stat sseiled from without r of Important centers of comme 1 have rat eac he eastern coast w and to estab sreatly* i a defen- sive squadron would be to create a navy of Incredible strength and numbers that wou drain the resources even of so prosperous @ nation as this. Accordingly, the plau to- day is rather to build up an effective naval fcrce that can be speedily shifted from base to base and to depend upon alertness to out-maneuver any enemy’s ficet and upon torpedo mines and a few powerful land batteries to resist attacks In case the invader should escape from the Ameri- can naval forces. Under such circum- stances a,comparatively small fleet of tor- pedo boats, gunboats and similar craft of small dimensions could be most effectively utilized and shifted from base to base within the protected channels, such as the Cushing has just explored, without running the grave danger to which these small vessels are always exposed when they get Within the range of the heavier naval war machires. There could be no more econom- ical method cf naval defense than the de- velopment of these carals and inside shan- nels which have just been explored to a further extent than ever before. The vun of the Cushing was over a course about twelve hundred miles in length, and she was In open waters only a very short dis- tance. In this connection it is interesting to note that one of the main values of the Baltic ship canal that is just being opened at Kiel lies in its use as an inside naval channel for the German fleet, which can by this means be shifted bodily from the North to the Baltic sea, or vice versa, without being once exposed to any fleet that may be waiting outside to attack it. It also makes a ccncentration of forces Possible, and this is one of the most im- portant elements in naval as. well as land warfare. «Of course the United States could probably never make such a canal or serias of canals on the Atlantic coast for the transportation of large men-of-war from point to point, except, Perhaps, one connecting Chesapeake and Delaware Bays. Nor would it be necessary to do so. The ondy canal that can be dug fhat would be of service -to the United States in the handling of large fleets in times of war is one across the Isthmus at some point. This is one of the chief values of the Nicaraguan canal project and one of the main reasons why European inter- ference in the-construction of that greatly needed ditch cannot be tolerated by the United States. ——____-+ e+ —____ The breaking of Camp Washington today will undoubtedly bring joy to many hearts in this city as Johnny comes marching home again, after ten days of hard work Jearning haw to be a soldier. It has not been unalloyed pleasure, this outing of the militiamen, for there have been elements to contend against that are disagreeable at most times and especially so under such circumstances as those that exist in the tented field. Least among these in point of size but greatest in point of numbers and enterprise is the festive chigoe, alias chegoe, alias chigo, alias chigre, alias chigua, alias chigger, alias jigger. This very small flea of very many names is scientifically designated “Sarcopsyla Pene- trans” and is of an investigating turn of mind that leads it to burrow beneath the human cuticle with an avidity that is worthy of a better cause. It is doubtful if one of the thousand members of the National Guard whose sojourn at Camp Washington has just come to an end has escaped the ravages of this voracious insect and doubtless a majority of them bring back from the field, if not the scars of dat- tle, at least the scars of scratches. The danger of holding any communication whatever with the jigger, which is the most familiar name of-this unpieasantly familiar insect, is that it» has very many feet and each of them has very many claws, and having once got its hooks into its victim, as it were, it hangs on until death ensues, that is to say, the death of the intruder. Fort Washington may not be the headquar- ters of the jigger family, but the experience of the National Guard during the past ten days has indicated that there must be located .there at least nine-tenths of the entire species, and the question naturally arises how the pests manage to exist dur- ing the intervals between encampments. It may be that they lay in a stock of food on one such occasion sufficient to last them for several years, or they may cross the creek to the nearest summer resort and there hold orgies on the persops of unsus- pecting excursionists who have not been jet into the jigger secret. Perhaps the jig- ger is to be regarded as part of the natural discipline of the soldier, and if so the recent encampment down the river has proved in this as in ail other respects a tremen- dous success. —_+e0e The sad news from Pera, Turkey, that finally estab! es the fact of the death of the American bicyclist, Lenz, has a bear- ing on the international relations of this country. For more than a year the death of Lenz hus been feared and the authoritative statement now made by Minister Terrell is no great surprise. Lenz was not en- gaged in a remarkably hazardous under- taking nor one especially valuabie, yet it was a plucky trip and most Americans ad- mife this quality and will feel deeply grieved at his death. Other men had ac- compiished this trip before him in safety and there was no lack of knowledge of the country through which he was travel- ing. It is to be hoped that his death will be followed by ample reparation on the part of the Turkish government, under whose jurisdiction the murder was com- mitted by five Kurds, members of that ap- parently half civilized tribe, whose blood- thirsty qualities have come into noto- riety during the past year in connection with the Armenian outrages. It seems that the names of the five murderers are known, and they should be punished. Mr. Terrell has taken prompt action and gives evidence of being thoroughly able to cope with the situation. There is no reason why these remote sections of the world should not be opened up to visitors and perhaps such tregedies as the death of Lenz may eventually have an induence in breaking down the barriers that exist. Slowly th: nations of the world are getting better acquainted with one another and eventually the “no-thoroughfares” of the earth will be confined to the sections that are uninhabitable for climatic reasons. —- + 0 summer resort souvenir edition of the Brooklyn Eagle, publisked last Sunday, is a notable journalistic achievement.

The Republican National League conven- tion at Cleveland elected Gen. E. A. Mc- Alpin president by acclamation. The -con- vention adopted a resolution offered vy Senatcr Patton of Michigan, referring all resolutions in relation to public questions to the republican uational convention of 1896. This disposed of the dispute regard- irg free coinage of silver and prevented a fight in the convention. The monument built to commemorate the taking of the fortress of Louisburg, Cape Breton, by New England soldiers, was unveiled with imposing exercises. Henry J. Aldrich, president of the Colorado Security Com- pany, disappeared from Denver, and inves- tigation shows that he diverted the funds of eastern ‘Investors. Secretary Herbert de- cided to give the attorney of Medical In- Spector Kerschner, found guilty by a ecourt- martial on charges preferred by Admiral Meade, and sentenced to dismissal, an op- portunity to make an argument before him in behalf of the surgeon. President Cleve- land went to his summer home at Buz- zard’s ay. Col. Richard Irving Dodge, U. S. A.. retired, died of apoplexy at his sum- mer home at Sackett’s Harbor, N. Y., aged sixty-nine. The Iron Age reports the iron trade to be rushing, and advances in all kinds of iron. The rolling mills are very busy throughout the country, and the de- mand is heavy. Commander Ide of the Alert, against whom charges were brought ty Admiral Meade, was relieved by cable- gram. The annual reunion of the Army of the Potomac was held in New London, Cenn. Myriads of grasshcppers are dying near Brighton, Col., and there seems to be @ promise that the pest will be wiped out by means of some unknown disease or other agency.

The new Baltic and North Sea canal was opened with grand ceremonies, Emperor William and the German princes being on the imperial yacht Hohenzollern when it broke the thread and passed through the canal, followed by the great naval proces- sion. Emperor William, in the presence of 15,000 people, laid the last stone of the canal. The French newspapers, editorially, do not regard pacific remarks by the Kaiser at Hamburg as expressive of his real senti- mengs. The American warships at Kiel made brilliant electrical displays at night during the celebration of the opening of the North Sea canal. Lord Rosebery’s gov- ernment was defeated in the house of com- mons on a motion to reduce the salary of th secretary ofwar. The vote was 132 to 125, and when announced caused great surprise. Negotiations have been opened with the view to having Chinese secure from the American capitalists the silver requisite to pay the Chinese war indemnity to Japan. The Duke of Cambridge will resign as com- mander-in-chief of the British army on October 1. The Japanese attacked the forts in the possession of the Black Flags at Taiewan, on the Island of Formosa. The Turkish government, in another reply to the note of the powers insisting upon re- forms in Armenia, disputes certain points and is likely to provoke the powers to adopt more urgent measures. A London court refused an application for the release of Oscar Wilde pending application for a new trial.

By the action of the Commissioners the merit sy: tem will hereafter be tollowed in appoint- ments in the District service. The cham- pionship of the District in tennis was again won by J. C. Davidsen. It was announced by the board of assessors that they will be unable to complete the triennial assessmei by the 1st of Januery next, as required by law, and Congress will be asked to grant ar extension of time. Edward Dodson, col. ored, was killed on the Brightwood electric toad; Harry Rapp, a boy, had his lege ct off by falling under a cable car, and Frank Viitiams, a boy, died from injuries received some weeks ago by being run over by an Anacostia car. The first annual convention of the District Epworth League of the Southern Methodist Church was held. By action of the corporaticn of Columbian University Rev. B. L. Whitman, the pres- ident of Colby University, Maine, was elected presidzat in place of the late Dr. Welling. It was decided to raise a fund to he extra requirements of a proposed nization of several of the depart- ments of the university, and subscriptions for a large amount were received. The President joined his family at Gray Gables. The management of the Eckington road was notified vy the Commissioners that the law requiring the removal of the overhead trolley wires on New York avenue by tbe Ist of July next would be enforced; e company having entered the plea that they had no authority to raise funds to subsi- tute another rapid transit system.
