4 THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. THURSDAY THE i:VENING STAR has a regular and permanent Family Circulation much more than the combined cir- er nm of the other Washington aflies. As a News and Advertising Medium it mo competitor. t7 In order to avoid delays, on ac- count of personal abscnce, letters to THE STAR should not be addressed to any indfvidual connected with the office, but «imply to THE STAR, or to the Editorial or Business Depart- ments, according to tenor or purpose. Metheds of Extending Trade. If France has landed, as today’s cable States, and hoisted her flag on Chinese soil, the mov for the control of China. and probably for her dismemberment, would appear to be complete. Germany led off. and si then Russia, Great Pritain, Ja- pan, and now France have taken their places in a line which looks extremely men- acing to the celestials. There is no hope for China except in the failure of her enemies to agree among themselves. The Partiticning of zn empire, and particularly so large and populous an empire, is diffi- cult business and needs to be executec with great care. A slice too muct here, or too little there, might easily pre- cipitate 2 ‘astrous row among the par- ties in interest, all of whom are filled with the spirtt of greed and selfishness. ‘This. it is to be remembered, is one way eof extending trade and territorial lines. China, though so backward in development is rich in possibilities. She is an inviting object io the eager and unscrupulous eye. Eyes of that description have long beer surveying her, and the time appearing ripe for attack the attack has begun. It should ent surprise no student of history that the great powers of Europe should advance boldly om a helpless people. It is their method of ness. But is also to be remembered that this is not the American way of dealing with transacting that kind of bust- such matters. The United States is trying to extend Fer trade, but she has in comm gion an agent who is negotiating for reci- Procity treaties. There are helpless people @t her doors whose trade she has enjoyed and whose trade she wishes again to enjoy, but she has sent no ships to ferce a bar- gain. Instead, as they are starving now from the effects of the oppression of their masters, she is extending succor to them in the way of food and clothing. So far from playing bully with her neighbors, the United States prefers and enacts the role ef the good Samaritan. And yet, with this record plain as day, there © people in this country greatly distressed at what they characterize as a spirit of intolerance and aggressiveness prevailing in the land. They greatly fear that it will end in forcing a combination of European powers against us. If we cared to make particular play for the re- Spect of Europe no other policy would serve us as well as one of thorough prepa- ration for war and the manifestation of a very ready spirit to engage in it. —_~ e+ Obstinacy in Faking. Much indignation is felt and expressed &mong the many friends of A. R. Shepherd in this city at the persistent exploiting of faked news concerning his health by a local Rewspaper. It was first alleged on the Strength of pretended advices from Ba- topilas ‘hat Mr. Shepherd had suffered a stroke of apoplexy, and that his condition Was then serious. Though absclutely no communication was possible with Batupilas before the next issue, and though no friend er relative of Mr. Shepherd in this city had corroborative information from Mexic that next issue declared that there ha been no change for the worse in the condi- tion of Mr. Shepherd, “according to late advices this afternoon from Batopilas, Mexico.” where “he is seriously ill from @ stroke of apoplexy.” And this morning, after all the information obtainable pointed incorrectness of the original this newspaper reiterated it and declared “relatives and close friends of Hon. A. R. Shepherd are not surpris: at the report that the governor was stricken with apoplexy.” The shock to the com- tunity of the original “fake” and the con- tinued strain of at.xiety caused by its crue: n with imaginary corroborative Y an obstinate and persistent fakir, are not to be lightly excused on the round of the exigencies of yellow journal- ism. + 2 ___ Yesterday's Fatal Accident. There is need of a thorough inquiry into the causes that led to the collapse of ihe old building in Southeast Washington y terday afternoon and it is to be hoped that the material facts will be clearly developed during ‘the coroner’s inquest tomorrow Morning. It is suggested that the one man who was killed by the accident was exclu- five to blame for the colapse, but it is notorious that whenever such a tragedy oc- curs there is a tendency to hold the dead Man solely accountable. It is deplorable that such a thing can happen here, where the closest watch is supposed to be kept upon ali forms of building enterprise. The safely rir demands that all instances of workmanship er direction should be expo-ed to serve as warnings to others. see The Chinese have a way of making a deal of general disturbance in the of frightening an opponent. The Ger- man emp-rer is too old a hand at such tac- tics to be deceived by them. ee — s insist that they are being of Ruiz for refusing to ized rule of civilized ¥ ———_ ee A Financial Coup in Austria. personal pularity of Emperor = nh of Austro-Hungary seems » be soon put to a@ crucial test An imperial authorizing t ere. we has just been gazetted nment during the pro rogation of the Austrian reichsrath to levy taxes and provide for the state ex- penditure from January 1 to June 30. This constitutes 4 coup d’ such as might, in the excited state of the public mind caused by the recent race ri in the legisla- ture and elsewhere, precipitate a grave crisis in the affairs of the nation. By this decree the emperor assumes direct powers over the finances of Austria such as by the constitution is vested in the reichsrath That body failed to provide ary of the usual means of supporting the administration of public affairs, the mem- bers being occupied during the entire pe- Tiod of the so-called sitting in the ex- change of epithets and blows. There ts thus 4 measure of excuse for the emperor's @ction, and it conveys a pointed hint tc the legisiature to assume a more tranquil? and business-like frame of mind when it is next convened, im order that the proper functions of the government allotted tc its care may be fulfilled. The decree is however, a perversion of the constitution and the radicals among the people will Go@®btiess use it in furtherance of the cam- Paign for the dissolution of the empire. It is to be noted that in defauit of the Tegular income as provided by the legis- lature the government assumes the fune- tion of both appropriation and taxation ‘This is one step ahead of the device adopt- @d by the Japanese government for a con- siderable period prior to the war with China when the diet refused to vote the budgets. The fundamental law of Japan provides that whenever the diet shall fail to provide for any item of routine govern- mental expendifure by specific act the item shall be continued on the basis of the ap- propriation of the preceding year. This is siniilar tc the custom of the American"Con- gress of providing by joint resolution for certain classes of expenditures whenever the appropriation bills for those objects are not passed by the end of the fiscal year. But this requires affirmative action by the legislative body, whereas in Japan the emperor is empowered to continue the items from year to year in the event of a failure of legislative action. During the period mentioned of the struggle between the government and the opposition, the en- tire administrative machinery of Japan was maintained in this manner, not a dollar being voted by the diet. Of course this w: an extension of the power theoretically granted by the constitution, which was intended only to cover accidental omis- sions, but the government utilized the au- thcrity broadly and arbitrarily and suc- cessfully. Mr. se in Office. if Secretary Gage were an old politician, or a seasoned office-holder, these rumors respecting his relations with the President would probably give him little concern. They acquire their only value from the notice he bestows upon them. There, is just enovgh in the situation to carry them along on the tide of day-to-day speculation, and to encourage embellishments for par- tisan purposes. Why should Mr. Gage resign his office? He did not accept it upon condition that the President would adopt his views in toto. There was probably no condition about the appointment at all. Mr. Gage had supported Mr. McKinley on the St. Louis platferm, and probably understood the financial plank of that instrument as weil as any man in the country. He was pledged, therefore, as the President and the other members of the cabinet were when they took office, to all that the plat- form represented When the Wolcott com- mission was sent abroad to forward if pos- sible the ends of interrational bimetalism he made no objection. The commission has not as yet concinded its work, and it is not expression after the war, and: congressional brought his party squarely up to the scratch and kept it there while he remained at the front. How different the record would have been had his leadership con- tinued is purely a matter for speculation, but the fact has often been noted that from the time his star declined the issue itself lost something of its force. It finally triumphed, it is true, at a national elec- tion, but only to be abandoned when the time came for legislation, and to cost the party the power which appeared to have been secured more by jugglery and catch- phrases than by a well-defined policy call- ing for a straightforward redemption. Since his retirement from congress Col- onel Morrison has served on the board of interstate commerce commissioners, part of the time as its president. The post is one of honor and responsibility, and Colonel Morrison, as was tu be expected, has ad- dressed himself to its duties with assidu- ity and fine capacity. At the same time his presence there has afforded another of the many instances of the caprice of political fortune. Entitled by character, ability and deserts for services rendered to one of the first posts, if not the very first, within the gift ef his party, he closes his political career in a comparatively subordinate post, and that by appointment from a republican President. ———~>+e—___ Richmond, Va., is developing many pro- tests against the trading stamp.
