Wolcott, ®tevenson and Paine, appointed by the President to go abroad in the interest of 4mternational bimetallism, will sail from ‘New York on Saturday. They will go first to Paris, and then to London and to Ber- Hin. The length of their stay will, in the ‘nature of things, depend on circumstances. ‘Whey may be back in the early summer; @hey may be detained until fall. Their ‘nsiness is of the highest importance, and ‘they will be justified in giving all the time to it the occasion may require. It pleases some people to attempt to be- @ittie the mission of these gentlemen, and ‘to wish for it an utter failure. But their mumber is not great, nor is their view of ‘the matter at all representative. The rep- ®sentative opinion is that the mission is sone of moment, and the representative wish is that it may be crowned with ‘abundant success. It grows not only out of @ desire and an intention to fulfill to the detter a solemn promise made to the people fim the national campaign of last year, but @s well out of a sincere conviction on the ert of the administration that if the ar- ®angement sought for can be effected the ‘whole world will benefit by it. The admin- stration and those who support it realize that the financial question is one of world- wide interest, and properly hold, therefore, what the great powers of the world should tbe consulted about a change so great as that embodied in the proposition for a re- turn to the free and unlimited coinage of silver. The American commissioners are clothed with the importance of special envoys, and Will therefore have access to diplomatic wircles in all countries they may visit for the discussion of the business they have in thand. This will put them on a most ad- ‘ventageous footing. Their first advances will be through diplomatic channels, and then will follow, if developments should Sustify it, the steps looking to the calling @f an international conference. The mission, we repeat, is of the highest groment, and those to whom it has been in- (trusted are in every way qualified for the work. They are men of experience, of full ‘formation, and of the most pleasing per- @onal address. They leave home with the wcuntry’s confidence, and they can bring no more cheering message back than that giv- fing assurance of bimetallism by interna- tional agreement. —s oo___—_. Batters or Pitchers? Some critics of the Washington ball club aver that the team is losing games because at can not bat. Its defenders insist that ‘the games are lost because the opposing witchers have all done unusually good work. Here, then, is a problem in cause and effect that is worth the attention of the philosopher. The ordinary base ball patron, however, will be inclined merely to wonder whether it is not remarkable that the pitchers in question have all managed ‘to do their finest work when facing the Washington aggregation of bat-swingers. But there is at least a bit of consolation in ‘the thought that the pitchers can not well keep up their wonderful pace and that the hitters will probably regain what in base- ball parlance is known as their “batting eye.” The season is young yet. —— 2 Hixhway Robbery. ‘The action of Judge Bingham in sentenc- ‘ing “Billy Williams, the notorious crim- imal, to suffer the maximum penalty pro- ‘vided by law for highway robbery deserves ‘the highest commendation. It is only by ‘the vigorous enforcement of penalties over ‘the pleas of soft-hearted sentimentality ‘that we can hope to put down the growing mpirit of desperate lawlessness. Great en- «eouragement has been given to the criminal @esperados who go armed for murder as ‘well as robbery by administering light pen- ilties and short imprisonment, whereby tthey were speedily let loose for new @ssaults upon life and property. +02 It may have occurred to England that if this country is as slow about getting ready for war as it is in providing for arbitra- ‘tion, there is no real need for @ treaty. —__~ += The critics of the Greek officers do not Seem to give due importance to the fact that in many cases retreats are purely ‘spontaneous affairs. _—__s oo Rejection of the Treaty. ‘The rejection by the Senate of the treaty of arbitration with Great Britain will be made the theme of much lurid lament and criticism by the enemies of the United Sta‘es woth within and without its borders. The ction will be ascribed to various causes: tto the “degeneracy” of the Senate; to a spirit of hatred of England; to senatorial thostility to Mr. Cleveland; to what is called Singoism, and so forth. This sort of talk will go the rounds, serve the bitter pur- moses of an exciting day, and then be for- wotten. Meanwhile, the truth exists, and, ‘s usual, makes @ very plain tale. * When the treaty was first submitted for Wheir consideration, senators were divided vito three classes: (.) There were senators who thought mo arbitration treaty in general terms nec- essary with any country. The United @tates was threatened with no war. It ‘was seeking no difficulty with anybody. It had never refused to arbitrate its conten- tions. It had submitted many contentions to tribunals of peace. What was the need, they asked, for formally binding over to ikeep the peace a nation so pacific in its thistory and asptrations? (2) There were senators—lawyers of ex- @erience and wide reading—who accepted ‘the treaty as worthy in spirit, but defec- ive in terms. They subjected It to a law- yyer-like examination. They felt justified in ‘this because they knew that if it became a Jew, and arbitrations should grow out of at, the procedure would be on a purely egal, and not sentimental, basis. They Wanted to protect the United States to the full in the whole transaction. They ap- ‘lied their own knowledge without hesita- ‘tion in amending the treaty, for Mr. Olney ‘had been the country’s lawyer in the nego- ‘ations, and many of them did not bow to THE EVENING STAR, THURSDAY, MAY 6, 1897-14 rausxs. Mr. Olney as an international lawyer. Some of them had had more experience in such business than he. Mr. Cleveland, as a lawyer, did not, of course, enter into the case at all. 3.) There were senators—a very few— who signified a willingness to accept thé treaty as submitted. They approved it on the general ground that it was ‘re good thing.” They declared themsefve sy for peace, and for all measures, withou erit- ical examination, that appeared to’ Make for peace. They were friendly to the ad- ministration, and they desired to. forward what they considered an administration measure. These were the original divisions in. the Senate on the treaty. That they were af- fected somewhat as time passed by the tone of the English press and by that of a section of the American press, in coarse and ungrounded abuse of the Senate, is not unlikely and not unnatural. The Sen- ate is not a body to be bullied, and most especially by such newspapers as arrogate all wisdom and purity and patriotism to themselves, and had great “peace editions” ready to be issued, glorifying themselves, in the event of the ratification of the treaty. But, although the treaty has been re- Jected, how stands the record? A large majority of the votes cast favored it in amended form, and even those recorded against it represent, in the main, senators who neither expect nor desire war with England. Peace still reigns between. the two countries and will continue to reign. The United States is still an advocate of arbitration as against war in every case where arbitration is consistent with self- respect and good government. ———_+ += _____. It is probable that during his residence in Texas Mr. Bailey has noted the desira- bility of not being involved in a stampede. Such observation might also suggest to him that while leading a munority, it would be prudent not to tle the lariat too tight around his wrist. ———_seo——_—_— The declaration that the additional tax on beer would not decrease the size of the glasses, does not carry with it the equally important assurance that the use of cheaper materials would not abnormally increase the size of the consumer's head. —————-=-—__ Mr. Dingley can console himself with the reflection that ‘the: tariff critics are not likely to be any better pleased with the bill as it will be when it leaves the Senate than they were when the House of Repre- sentatives sent it over. _ ————~ +e —__ With reference to 1, Mr. Cleveland ap- bears to feel that even though the pros- pect of catching anything seems slight, it will do no harm to keep a line in the water. ———_~+--______ There is a growing disposition in Spain to put a final limit on the number of vic- tories which Gen.

But wot’s the good of a happy family if we have to keep the members chained up out of one, another's reach?” Fame. “Ch, who is the lady with manners de- mure, Who seems to retirement inclined; Whose wealth, if existing at all, secure From the casual gaze of mankind.

Fiom the Philadelphia Times. The great industrial and business inter- ests of the country are today waiting for the new tariff bill, and inspiration to in- dustrial progress will not so much depend upon the character of the bill as upon its early onactment. Whether: the’ new tariff jaw shall be wise or otherwise, there will be no great movement in industrial chan- nels until it shall have been enacted, and this should be the strongest possible appeal to the Senate to dispose of the measure at the earliest period. - ‘ It in Not Pleasant. From the New York Tribune (rep.). Nor is it pleasant that the benefit to sug- ar refiners is greater than under the pres- ent tariff, so that opponents of the bill have a pretext for saying thet its sugar schedule was “written by the Sugar Trust.” The duties on tea and hides, the tax on beer, the abrogation of the Hawi Treaty, of provision, will all challenge some the omission can criticism. It is babi; a that the bill will gt mau ieee pass in its’ present form. Cornwell sells the best at the lowest price. o Proprietor f Summer Resorts. We make a specialty of supplying hotels.
