It is none other than the prevention of storms by aerial explosions. ‘The owner of extensive vineyards found that his profits were disappearing with the frequent destructron of his vines by hail- stones. These storms are common and se- vere In Austria, especially on the southern slopes of the Bacher mountains, and as the soil is pecullarly adapted to the growth of the grape the question arose whether some means of preventing the falling of hail could not be devised. Tne explosion experi- ment was tried and to the date of the re- port it had met with unbroken success. The method is simple. On each of six of the mest prominent summits surrounding the vineyards the owner erected a station built of wood, for the shelter of a battery of heavy mortars, ten at cach station. The neighboring peasantry, themselves small yard owners, have been trained to tae of manning e batteries and at the itest sizn of the approach of a storm semble and at a given signal y.

Tt is highly significant of the stress under which the Senate is now laboring that Mr. Hale, one of the staunchest advocates of that condition or atmosphere surrounding the upper house of Congress known as : ial courtesy.” should feel obliged te ris* to a point of order against the lobby of ex-Senators. The Star recently called attention to the doings of certain former members of that body of the Congress who Were on guard to protect the interests of the Sugar Trust and incidentally to pre- vent, if possible, the annexation of Ha- wali. Other interests are being quite as assiduously championed by these favored few, whom the generous rules of the Sen- ate admit to the floor. Senator Hale's post- ton is a delicate one, surrounded by many embarrassments, and he deserves the more praise and credit for having broken through the reserve which “Senatorial courtesy” practically impeses upon him and his col- leagues. The affair has grown to the pro- pertions of a scandal, and, considered in connection with the well-authenticated re- ports of improper transa: by members of the Senaie whose terms have not yet expired, and who are still protected by the charitable mantle of “Senatorial court it is the more to be admired in Mr. Hale that he has attempted to devise a way to rid the Senate of the incubus. The Senate should promptly adopt Mr. Hale's amendment, or some substitute that will produce the result at which he aims. It should then seek some method of modi- fying the prevailing customs which make it practically imposstble for the black sheep of the flock to be exposed. The Sen- ate is an honorable body. By far the majority of its members are honorable men. They speak and vote, as a rule, ac- cording to their simcere convictions, as Gictated, perhaps, by their party oblig: tions. But in the Senate there are some men whose unscrupulous views of the privileges of their position lead them to aets that could not stand the light of honest investigation. The case is the worse th the s food and ‘democrats | THE EVENING STAR, FRIDAY, JUNE 25, 1897-16 PAGES. = these men deliberately take ad- cf the cloak of protection which nent of “Senatorial courtesy” | throws around their public and even their | private deeds. Some of the Senate’s most | honorable and upright men, themselves far | beyond all possible suspicion, persist in aiding these transactions by demanding the preservation of this atmosphere. Whether it be that they do not realize the need of a purging, or fear the effects of disclos- ures upon the public, as affecting the gen- eral repute of the whole body, it is impos- sible to know and immaterial at this time. The fact remains that there is a well- grounded public suspicion that- there are unscrupulous men among the Senators, who are using their official positions . for improper purposes, and th€t this. suspicion cannot either be confirmed or exploded because of the existence of this system of general self-defense styled .“‘Senatorial courtesy.” Therefore it ts that Mr. Hale's latest move is the more valuable than by, reason of its assault upon the lobby. It may re- sult in rending the veil that hides this temple from the profane .yiew of the American public, and for that result the people of this nation, who are bred in the belief that the most substantial thing about the republic is the purity of its institutions, will be deeply grateful ae ggg — The New Plan for Garbage Dixposal. The general plan of garbage disposal, as outlined in yesterday’s Star, embraces cer- tain features that should meet with warm approval from the citizens. There has been a decided sentiment throughout the Dis- trict of late years that the garbage han- dling plant, of whatever nature, should be located far beyond the range of habitation, and The Star has frequently urged the adoption of a system that would effect the destruction or the reduction of the ma- terial several miles away from the closely populated section. It is now. evident that the Commissioners are so burdened with their long contract with the present par- ties that they can not effect a completely satisfactory reform, especially in view of the lack of a day labor law. But pending the expiration of this agreement and the enactment of such a statute the plan now in contemplation meets many of the most serious objections to the present system. The garbage, it is evident, will be de- stroyed at such a distance that it can not well annoy any of the citizens or their neighbo! Its transportation down ihe river by scows has usually been attended with unpleasant results, but the Commis- oners, profiting from their former expe- riences in this line, seem to have provided against the secret dumping of the ma- terials in tream. Provision seems to be made, too, for garbage disposal during | the few weeks in winter when the river frozen, and altogether this plan appears to be by far the best way out of what has beeh a most unpleasant and even dan- gerous complication. ——++2—___ Mr. Curzon's Answer. The reply given yesterday in the House ef Commons by the Parliamentary Secre- tary for Foreign Affairs, Mr. Curzon, to the question about Hawaii put by a mem- ber, was couched in the neatest of diplo- matic langnage. It contained no bluster, no threat, no promise of action, but merely reserved to the British government the privilege of demanding recognition by the United States of all of England's acquired rights in Hawaii. Against such a propos tion, thus expressed, there can be no protest here. There are extensive English inter- ests in Hawaii, valuable holdings and large commercial establishments. It is probably to these that Mr. Curzon refers when he speaks of rights that belong to Great Britain and British subjects. The con- trast between this attitude and that of Japan is noteworthy, and is ‘somewhat symbolic of the two nations. England doubtless realizes that there exist many unsurmountable reasons why Hawaii should become a part of the United States, and gives credence to the sentiment that has bound the two republics together for many years. Japan plays a losing game in seeking to capture the islands by the trick of imm'gration and files into a fury when the game is spoiled by the intervention of the strong hand of the United States. Mr. Cur- zon’s reply indicates that England has had enough experience with large powers—es- pecially this one—to know when to fall in with the procession and when to get out of step. ae If it were not for the encouragement which it might have given the Senate to loiter over tariff weeks would have text for remarks on orit: th Dill, the past few furnished a first-cl Washington's superi- as a*summer resort. —-- eee -—___ It ts to be feared that after the accu- ations of Senatorial manipulation of stack market figures, which have been mad the Alexander Island style of horse rac will strike a 1 paratively b ns tion ef the public as com- nest. +++ _____ gement of John L.

Philadelphia Press. “Oh, there is not the least probapility of the ratification of that Hawaiian treaty,” j Was the flippant way in which John D. Spreckels, of the Sugar Trust, referred to- day to the Hawalian annexation ireaty. “We can beat that treaty without any trouble whatever,” was the further emark of Mr. Spreckels. The Sugar Trust seems to be confident through its lobbyists here that the treaty cannot be ratified. But, even if that can- not be done, the bill introduced by Mr. Mcrgan can easily be passed, although the Sugar Trust lobbyists declare that it wiil never be allowed to come to a vote in the Senate. —————_~ e+ ____ The Ex-Senator Lobby.
