The peace protocol, solicited by her and signed by her, covers substantially the to w case. Sovereignty over Cuba and Porto Rico is relinquished by her in that instrument. Nothing, it true, is said @beut the Cuban debt, but simply for the reason that the United States, as Spain very well knew at the time, could not be brought to assume that. Had that matter been broached and {insisted upon by Spain, the peace protocol would have been im- possible. The United States would never have signed the instrument with any such ecndition included. As to the Philippines, the exact Ameri- can terms as to which have not yet pub- ely been defined, Spain's helplessness ts potorious. Pa --sca anummission has not reached that feature of the general case, and the Americans will not consent to take it up until Cuba and Porto Rico have been disposed of. The United States will find it easy to pro- ceed with its program without Spain's for- mal assent at Paris if Spain chooses to withhold it. We are already in possession of Porto Rico. We are the masters at Ma- nila, and that means the control of the Philippines. Cuba is coming under our sway, if a little slowly, still most surely. The refusal of Spain to yield at Paris would mean nothing but the assumption of a new role by her. We have seen her in the tragedy of Pride and Blind Preju- dice. She may, if she chooses, present her- self in the comedy of The Sulk. “A great Spanish personage” quotes Prince Bismarck on the subject of gener- osity and moderation in the hour of vic- tory. Dangerous authority on that sub- ject! The great German statesman’s per- formances did not square with his precepts. While in Paris ‘“‘a great Spanish person- age” ought to inform himself as to the di ference. Information on the point is abund- an- there. ———_ + = —___ Three Points of Danger. A great deal of the anxiety existing in sound money circles respecting the next House grows out of the condition of affairs in the three important states of New York, Pennsylvania, and Ohio. Sound money sen- timent is largely in the majority there, and ordinarily there would be no danger of its miscarriage in the matter of voting for congressmen. But in all three of those states this year unusual divisions exist, and in one of them the fiercest factional fight- ing in which the republicans have ever in- dulged is in progress. Local issues, it is true, are responsible for this, and only local ends are aimed at, but the danger fs that in the midst of so much warring and cross- firing the great national issue of sound money may suffer. The gravity of the situation is best ap- preciated when it is considered that nearly one-fourth of the entire membership of the next House is involved. N York has thirty-four members, Pennsylvania twenty- eight, and Ohio twenty-one. Sound money, legitimate! entitled to nearly every one of these eighty-three votes. In the contest of two years ago it was very plainly de- monstrated how the people of those states stood on the financial question, and nothing has occurred since to weaken their faith in the cause for which they then gave their verdict. But in New York Mr. Croker now soothes sound money democrats by affecting to ig- nore the Chicago platform; and maey of them will vote against candidates for Con- gress specifically pledged to sound money. In Pennsylvania the Quay and the anti- Quay people are at the sharpest sword’s point; and it remains to be seen whether in the cutting and slashing certain to take place on election day national candidates as well as local ones are not made to feel the steel. And in Ohio, where both the Pres- ident and all for which he stands should have special consideration, the Hanna-Mc- KAisson feud throws a shadow of uncertain- ty over the field. It will be a queer commentary on the times if sound money this year should re- ceive a black eye through either apathy or misadventure in localities which in 1896 cast high-watermark majorities in its fa- vor. As before stated, nearly a fourth of the House is in a scale shaken and threat- ened by unusual and dangerous conditions, The Inquiry Into Powell's Escape. It would seem from the text of Major Sylvester's report to the Commissioners concerning the recent escape of the pri oner, Powell, indicted for murder, from sta- tion No. 6, reprinted today, that there is much looseness in the system of guarding prisoners at some points, and that this af- fair, as far t has gone, should prove a benefit to the police force. The main facts of the matter apparently are that there was a misunderstanding as to what officer was in charge of the station during the temporary absence of the lieutenant of the precinct, that there was insufficient infor- mation officially spread among those in the station that a prisoner of importance was in custody and was to be taken to the jail, that the lock was insecurely fastened, that the morgue-keeper was out of his proper sphere of duty in the premises and that the corridor door which shuts off the cell room from the body of the station and the street was carelessly left open. All these facts are detrimental to the repute of the precinct for efficiency and organization, and, of course, affect that of the entire force as well. Major Sylvester's recom- mendations appear to strike at the case with warrantable directness. Had the pris- oner gone entirely free undoubtedly the ac- tion of the authorities would have been mere severe, yet the offense of neglect and indifference could not even in that case have been more serious. The good fortune of the police in later catching the man dees not mitigate the fault of those ac- countable for his escape from the station. However, it is to be expected that this matter will sufficiently arouse the concern of those responsible for the discipline of the force to prevent recurrences, at least in the near future. By all means it should result in the complete equipment of the stations of the city with the steel gratings urged by Major Sylvester, and also in the creation of the post of desk sergeant, as he further recommends. Certainly some better sys- tem is possible than that which permits the mix-ups like that at the sixth resulting in Powell’s easy escape. > 0 Richard Croker may have been slightly misled by the fact that a few months ago anybody who wore a mustache and impe- riai could be called “colonel” if the title pleased him. The title is subject to more discrimination now, and carries a eorre- sponding increase of weight. a Great Britain has gently intimated on oc- casion that English as spoken by the United States is sometimes more abrupt than diplomatic. France has the same opinion of the London dialect. +0e People who are anxious to see real prize fights may have to give up their member- sbip in sporting clubs and keep a sharp lookout on hotels where casual meetings may occur. ++ —_—. If circumstances demand another peace commission from Spain it will be well for Madrid to see to it that each member has an unqualified acceptance of terms in his breast pocket. * — +++ Campaign Schemes. ‘The New York political situation keeps up its record for lightning changes. The latest turn of affairs ts especially interest- ing. It involves the possibility of a crimi- nal prosecution perhaps reaching as far as former Senator David B. Hill. It affects the prospects of the free silver democrats and bears closely upon the fortunes of war in the approaching election. The state law regarding independent nominations requires that petitions must be filed from at least 6,000 voters, of whom at least fifty must reside in each of the sixty counties. The silverites recently went to work to secure these names, and succeeded in obtaining more than 12,000 signatures, covering the ground as to counties in entire obedience to the law. Of course the whole chain failed if one of the counties should be miss- ed. One of them has been missed, and in a manner which arouses the rage of the Bryanites and evokes thelr threats of jails and things not pleasant for even a “practi- cal politician” to contemplate. The miss- ing county {is Ulster. A petition was ac- tually secured, with fifty-seven names at- tached, and was placed by the mover of the effort in that county in the hands of a THE EVENING STAR, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 21, 1898—16 PAGES. notary public to secure certain affidavits required by the law. There is some mys- tery about where the petition went, but it seems to have been traced to Senator Hill's law office and then into Senator Hill's waste basket in bits. It is asserted that the notary, an ardent follower of the Hill faith, destroyed it. There was very little time to spare before the closing of the lists at the office of the secretary of state, who has jurisdiction over the nominations and the official ballot, but the silverites went to work and secured half a hundred names in season and presented them. This Substitute petition was rejected, however, on the ground that it was not properly ac- knowledged, and that phase of the case may go to the civil side of the courts. It will not stop there if the angry silver men carry out their threats. They point to the stat- utes, which punish with imprisonment for from one to five years any person who sup- presses or destroys a petition for nomina- tion. The former senator is known to have urgently advised the withholding of the pe- tition, but it is not known whether he ad- vised its destruction. He threatened one of those concerned in its suppression, it is charged, that he would be branlied as a a traitor to the democracy if he permitted that petition to reach the secretary of state. But the astute Mr. Hill has doubtless Kept beyond the law’s reach, after having succeeded in embarrassing the efforts of the silverites to place a ticket in nomina- tion. It is evident from the preliminary signatures secured that the ticket would have drawn some thousands from the regu- lar democratic ticket. ——~ += ____ Li Hung Cheng and the Empress Dow- ager probably concluded that they would get along more amiably by not introducing ay matrimonial complications into che sit- uation, —+ +» —____ France should be cautious in quibbling ebout space in the world’s fair in 1900.

You said that I always insisted on arguing a point and I said that you did, and then the conversation grad- ually developed.” Taking a Hint. “Aren't you glad to be let off with a slight fine for breaking the peace?” in- quired the alcalde. “Certainly not,” answered the prisoner. “Following the suggestion of our illustrious government, I think I ought to be liberally paid for promising to keep quiet.” Points of View. “How people misjudge one another in this life!” exclaimed the philosopher. “Yes.” answered Mr. Brokington. can’t rid myself of an idea that that bill collector gets a great deal of fun out of coming here and bothering me about money.

From the Chicago Record. ‘The announcement that Bishop Hartzell of Africa is on his way to Washington as the representative of Liberla to ask the United States government to take the negro ropublic under its care and exercise a pro- tectorate over it shows the high esteem in which this nation is held by the weaker peoples of the earth. They have confidence in the motives of the American nation and they want its protection to insure them against aggression on the part of imperial- istic powers. This trust and confidence tp their govecn- ment's integrity and lefty motives by the weak and liberty-loving must be a source of pride to Americans. They will insist that nothing be done to weaken this faith of weaker peoples in the high character of their political aims and institutions. ——___ ee Some Deal in On. From the Philadelphia Public Ledger. All this effusive ccrdiality between the German emperor und the Sultan of Tur- key means something. So much money would not be spent on the reception of a Christian sovereign merely passing through Constantinople on bis way to the Holy Land, unless the Moslem entertainer ex- pected to profit by it. The reported desire of the kaiser to secure land for colonizing purposes in Asia Minor may offer some ex- planation, but scarcely a sufficient one. The important meaning of it to the world at large, however, is that Turkey and Ger- many are on the most friendly terms, and while these relations continue the position of the “Turk encamped in Europe” is se- eure. ——_—_—_ «2 —____ Croker’s Great Mistake.

The Philippines have a population of 7,000,000. The United States, exclusive of new pos- sessions, has fully 75,000,000 people at this time. The census of 1900 will show a total population of probably 86,000,000, provided we take all the Philippine Islands. [« Elphonzo Youngs Co.
