THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. FRIDAY.............November 27, 1896. as that of any other paper, moralag or evening, published in Washing- ton. As a News and Advertising Medium it has no competitor. t7In 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 purpos Awaiting Weyler’s Next Move. Genera Weyler’s latest maneuver, which consisted of his appearing to expose his precious persor for a few days and then scurrying back to cover, may have a sequel. The game may not yet be played out as de- vised. He may have another card in his hand—or up his sJeeve. He is by no means @ great soldier, but he has had military training and experience, and it is almost inconceivable that any soldier of his years and reputation would ride away from his headquarters with a great flourish of trumpets one week, and come slipping back the next week with all but self-confessed failure. Besides, his superiors at Madrid still sustain him, and that they would not do if he had in this matter registered a complete fluke. They are evidently waiting for a second act of the drama. What that second act may prove to be Is of course a question. An ordinary sugges- tion is that Gen. Weyler is trying to draw Gen. Maceo on. This was very promptly advanced. But if that is the play it shows no sign of success. Gen. Maceo is not reck- lessly plunging after his enemy. In fact he shows no change of plan whatever, but keeps his distance and his own counsels as before. It is not to be told from his move- ments that he knows or cares where Gen. Weyler in person may be. The probability is that he does know all about him; has heard with satisfaction of that shower to which he was exposed, and of that hot din- ner the Spaniard missed. But the Cuban leader goes his way, playing hopscotch across the lines of the trochas, and putting his force into any square that suits him. Need Gen. Maceo, for the present, pursue any other course? Is he likely to do so? Why should he be drawn on to an engage- ment with the enemy on the enemy’s own terms? He knows the’ enemy's superior numbers and equipment. The Spaniards are calling nim, in Spanish derision, the fox. But that Is a compliment. The En- glish applied that name to Gen. Washing- ton, who was not always as accommodating about a fight as they, with all the advan- tages, desired. The American commander insisted on picking the time and field, and whenever he was ready there proved to be a good deal of fight in him. So, probably, with Gen. Maceo. He will continue to pick his field, and when he strikes the enemy will know it. Meanwhile Spanish indebtedness will pile up, and Spanish hospitals in Cuba fill up with the unfortunate victims of disease. Spain is most concerned about that. She declares her purpose to contribute the last dollar and the last man to the conquering of the insurgents. But when the last dollar is reached, the last man for military pur- poses will not be far behind. —————_+ «-+____. Turning in Fire Alarms. It is reported that there was some diffi- culty and delay in the turning in of an alarm at the planing mill fire Tuesday night, owing primarily to the failure of the policeman’s key to fit the nearest alarm box. The natural suggestion arising from this state of affairs is that the prevailing system of boxes opened by means of keys should be abandoned in favor of the key- less boxes, a few of which are now in use in this city and give perfect sattsfactton, now that the novelty has worn off and small boys no longer take advantage of their opportunity to turn in false aiarms. It appears that there are no keyless Loxes east of 7th street west, and that there are only about ten of them in the city all together, these being in the business por- tion of the city. It is a question whether it would not be better to put these keyless bexes in residence sections where the peo- ple are less likely to 2 supplied with keys or to be informed as to the means of turning in a prompt alarm in case of fire. Comparatively few of the people appear to know how to act in such an emergency. It is safe to assert that less than half of the residents of a large city can save the pre- cious moments so essential to the fire de- partment for the successful handling of a conflagration by turning in an alarm with- out_unnecessary delay. As a rule, they shout for assistance and in their generally demoralized state of mind trust to luck for somebody with coolness and a knowl- edge of the location of boxes and keys to turn in the alarm for them. Usually it is a policeman who. sends the signal to the fire department. The police should see that every Householder is well informed as to the Iccation of the nearest box and key, until the time when a larger appropriation will permit the substitution of the key- less boxes for those now generally in use. The danger of waste of time and effort by the fire department as a result of false alarms rung in by youngsters who love the excitement of galloping horses has been proved to be small and the department could profitably run the risk of a few use- less trips if the people were theredy as- sured of the greater degree of efficiency probably resuiting from such an increase in the facilities for giving prompt notice of fires. —____++« —___ In arranging a sale of Cuba, Spain would probably decline to consider a suggestion that she put the property in good repair for the purchaser. —_ + «+ ___ There seems to be a great deal of un- necesary worriment over Mr. Hanna's po- litical future. —_ =» —____ Richard Croker's Program. Richard Croker has returned home, and his presence in town is the event of the day in Tammany circles. Both the sound money braves and the free silver braves give him cordial welcome, and the hope is expressed all around that he has come to lend a hand toward putting the organiza- tion on its feet again. Mr. Croker when approached on this point is coy. He doesn’t know as yet what he shall do. His plans are unformed. He must look about and get his bearings. He loves Tammany Hall —always has loved always shall love it. Tammany may always command him in reason. And so on. This sort of talk from Mr. Croker means business. The politicians accept it as indi- cating his purpose to try and effect a re- cohcilation between the braves who sup- ported Mr. Bryan and those who refused to support him. Mr. Croker is himself for sound money; but what he would have done had he been in the country during the cam- paign is a question. He might have taken no part at all, like Senator Hill. Or he might have put on a mask, as Senator Gor- man did, and played a free silver part. But that seems to be little to the point now, so far as Tammany is concerned. Tammany is for Croker, right or wrong, sound money or free silver, flush times or hard. All it asks of him is to stand up in the hall and formally announce that “Richard is him- self again.” Mr. Croker has his eyes on next year’s municipal race. He wants a man of his own choice elected mayor of greater New York, so that, through him, he may once more control the town. The prize, for a time, will be greater in value than the governorship of the state. At the present time the outlook for Tam- many is gloomy. It behaved so badly in the national race under Sheehan's leader- ship, its stock is away below par. It is now a house divided against itself. Mr. Croker’s task will be to gather everybody into the fold again, hold a love feast, and unite for next year’s race. He may be equal to the work. And then he may not. Mr. Croker will want the town to forget Tammany’s flop to silver. He will argue that silver has nothing to do with munici- pal affairs. He will promise good and economical government, and on that make the fight. But maybe the town will refuse to forget Tammany’s flop to free silver, es- pecially as the Bryanites are promising, and now are,organizing, another national cam- paign on that issue. The New Yorkers thought themselves fortunate in the recent campaign that Tammany was out of Power. Had it possessed all of the patron- age, as at other times, and held the town under its thumb, the suund money men might have experlerced same trouble-~ But Tammany out of power is easily divided and handled. In the light of what the free silver men are promising for 1900, why not keep Tam- many out of power? Why place in its hands the tremendous leverage of the greater New York with which to operate for free silver two and four years hence? Who knows how strong the plea of “regu- larity” might be even with Mr. Croker, despite his sound money affiliations? He might do what Mr. Sheehan but recently @id—pledge the organization to the support of a policy inimical in every way to the interests of New York and of the country. Besides all this, as some of the New Yorkers point out, there is to be considered Tammany’s record as a municipal force. That record is bad—stained with many dis- graceful transactions. Tammany’s concep- and a multiplication of snug places for the rank and file of the organization. ‘—+—__++e—______ The Local Water Supply. Secretary Lamont’s recommendation that Congress should make early provision for an adequate water supply for the District is based upon the best of evidence that such ‘action is urgently necessary. This is his first opportunity to embody the sugges- tion of tunnel completion in an annual re- port, with excellent engineering authority as a foundation, inasmuch as the commis- sion that inquired into the feasibility of completing the tunnel, at the command of Congress, did not conclude its labors until after the report of 1895 was submitted. Tats fact militated against the success of the project, for the House appropriations committee objected to legislating on a sub- ject that had not gone through the regular channels in its preliminary stages. Thia really baseless objection cannot well be raised this winter, now that Secretary La- mont has formally urged the increase of the water supply on the lines of the com- mission’s recommendations. As the Secre- tary says, although the capital has hereto- fore been exempt from disaster or serious distress because of the lack of water, those familiar with the subject Mave long recog- nized the danger of further depending upon the narrowly limited supply, in view of the steady growth of the city and the conse- quent increase in the demand for good water. There will be no excuse for a fail- ure on the part of the appropriations com- mittee of either house this year to take up the subject as one that admits of no further delay, and to provide abundant means for the completion of the tunnel and reservoir according to the plans of the commission. A large fund for this purpose is now set apart in the Treasury, awaiting release. ——~+++___ The republican organizations propose to be active in disseminating literature to ccunteract the effects of Mr. Bryan's con- tinued agitation of the silver question. This is the course of prudence; but a thor- ough revival of business will give the peo- ple so much else to attend to that they will lose their interest in 16 to 1 arguments. Oo ___.
