It brought one lot of sich men from a south- 2 state, but the strikers prevented them from going to work, threatening them with lence. The company officials appeal=d to the gov- ernor for protection in re-establishing their bu The governor refused, taking the grocnd that the company was acting axgcinst the best Interests of the state in ess. 1 of listening to helpful addresses upon | ligious and moral topi as ex-convicts, as persons likely to become public charges through their misbehavior. He warned the min2 owners that the: would have to act on their own responsi- bility and assume the blame of whatever bloed might be shed in consequence. After further efforts to secur? protection from the state authorities the company brought to Virden a trainload of imported men, guarded by armed “deputies.” The train was attacked upon its arrival at the com- pany'’s works and a fight occurred result- ing in loss of life and many wounds on both sid>s. Disapproval of the act of an avaricious corporation in making the importations and of the governor’s shufiling policy does not detract from the blame which rests upon the strikers for taking the case into their own hands and firing upon the trainload of imported miners. They had no right under the law to oppos> by other than moral force the incoming of the men to whom their places had been given. Governor Tanner has issued a statement in which he charges the company officials with the crim2 of murder. He can not expect the sympathy of thinking people in this position, for the facts all tend to fasten even a greater burden of moral re- spcnsibility upon him than upon the cor- poration: first for not preventing the con- ditions at Virden which 2ncouraged the strikers to assume the offensive, second for leaving the company to adopt its own measures of self-defense after it had sought the aid of the properly established agencies. The governor has seemed in this affair to assume a demagogical attitude of ex- treme tenderness for the rights of the strik- ers without seeking to preserve order re- gardle of the merits of the controversy. His mption that the imported miners would become charges on the state might have been justified by the facts of his in- timate knowledg>, but in acting upon it he incurred a grave responsibility. The ques- tion whether the state wouid be more se- riously injured by the possible misconduct of the imported negro2s or by the riots and bloodshed of yesterday was then open and should have been positively answered. This affair is quite apart from the labor problem. It involves the capacity of the present governor of Illinois to cope with an emergency. Had he acted promptly and effectively at the outset of the trouble he might have held down both company and strikers with a firm hand and have at all events preserved the peace at Virden, j which was his primary duty. —__ ++ + —___ Deaf-Mutes and the Church. The question of promoting public religious services for the benefit of deaf mutes has been broached in the Episcopal convention and is worthy of serious attention. It is epparent that the deaf can not attend the erdinary church service with any degree of satisfaction, for they can not of course hear the sermons, the Biblical readings, or the music, however muca they may enter into the spirit of the occasion and feel th influenc of the church atmosphere. The ; only method of extending spiritual comfort to them on such occasions is by means of the sign language, and it is obviously im- possible that each city church should pro- vide such interpretation for the benefit of the few deaf-mutes within the sphere of its influence. As was stated to the convention yesterday this matter presents many difli- culties in the way of a satisfactory solu- tion, particularly in view of the denomina- tional prejudices of the individuals who are thus deprived of hearing and speech. It may be Impossible to reconcile these diffi- ities and provide a church of such uni- versality of doctrine and ritual that the predilections of the deaf-mu will be evercome. But it might be possible to semble the deaf-mutes of each community into a single organization for the purpose . Locally the prob- lem is comparatively of easy solution for the institution at Kendall Green affords an exceptional opportunity for all those of the hless, silent world to attend Sunday services. But in other cities little is offered in the line of such facilities. It is well therefore that the subject has been pr sented to the convention of the Episcopai church. Its final solution may be found through an inter-denominational move- ment, but the initiative must be taken by one of the established churches. oe spec Porto Rico Evacuated. The formalities preceding the transfer of sovereignty in Porto Rico from Spain to the United States have practically been concluded, according to the dispatch from Gen. Brooke, which was received today and appears in the news columns. The flag will be noisted next Tuesday and from t time forward Spain will cease to exist as a governmental factor on the island. ‘The work of evacuation may not be compiete by the 18th, but that fact vill not delay the assumption of possession by this go ernment. The joint commission in Porto Rico has had few difficulties 1. rea-hing an agreement in comparison with that in Cuba, owing to the far greater military force in the latter island and the more ex- tensive interests which Spain is seeking to save from the crash. Then, too, Caba is not being transferred directly from Spanish to American sovereignty as is Porto Rico, this fact ana operates to embarr the American commissioners somewhat in their eealings. But the Spanish repiesens: on the Cuban commission will fin at they, too, must walk the straight path and abandon their present position of obstruc- tion and resentment. ee ee The German emperor should carry a dis- play of arms and ammunition if he desires t» make a strong impr-ssion during his pilgrimage.

Young Mr. Poweli came so near joining Dorsey Foultz yesterday, with the added prestige of an escape from the hands of the Washington police, that he gave the com- munity a decided shock. Perhaps if he ever comes to realize what a scare he caused among the guardians of the law he may be in @ measure compensated for the failure of his enterprise. Yet he ha& prob- ably only himself to blame for his recap- ture, for if he had jumped a train in the Baltimore and Ohio yard, where he soon found himself after pulling aside the bolt at his cell door and walking out through the back yard, he might by this time have been far away, as safe from arrest as his distinguished colleague, already mentioned, an@ Frank Funk, and perhaps some others who are not definitely enumerated. But Powell, with the fatulty of the average criminal, persisted in haunting the homes of his relatives, the very places where the policemen and detectives would be most likely to look for him, and so was readily and neatly trapped anew. ‘Thus the police have to thank their lucky stars that they were dealing with a man of little discrimination, else they would be in a sad quandary today. His escape from imporUng mingrs whom he characterized the station house reflects.no great credit | upon him, for he merely took advantage of an improperly locked door to walk out to freedom. It remains now for the police officials to ascertain just now it came to pass that the cell of so important a pris- oner was left insecured in this manner. It is interesting also to inquire into the ar- rangement and discipline of a police sta- tion enatling a prisoner who has once passed through his cell door to get clear away into the open without attracting any attention, especially in the middle of the day. Of course, the station house is not regarded as an exceptionally strong place of detention, for prisoners are not usually confined in them for more than a few hours, sometimes in exceptional cases re- maining over a day. But as a link in the chain of punishment and detention it is highly important that the station cell should be at least strong enough to prevent a quick and easy escape. A prompt investigation of this case will doubtless disclose the facts and throw light on the rather startling possibilities revealed by Powell's escape. It may be possible to learn why a prisoner who has been sup- posed to have been searched can have on his person the means of picking a lock, or, if as is asserted in this case, why a lock is used which is capable of being picked with the unaided fingers. In almost any view of the affair it is clear that there has been gross carelessness somewhere along the line, and it deserves speedy punishment. ———+ + —_____ Zola's friends bought a single table for enough to pay the entire judgment for which his furniture was sold.
