No Summer? (Hartford Post.) The year 1816 was known through- ent the United States as the year without a summer. January of that ‘year was so mild that most people would have let their furnaces go out Thad they possessed any, and Febru- sry was only occasionally colder. March and April coaxed the buds and lowers out, and May was a winter month, with ice and snow, By the end of May everything perishable had teen killed by the cold, and the young leaves had been stripped from the trees.: June was as cold as May. Both snow and ice were common through- ont the month all over the corn belt, and after having planted corn two or three times the farmers threw up their hands. Snow fell 10 inches deep in_ Vermont.

The Ammunition Problem. (Bridgeport Standard.) As the great war progresses it be- comes more and more evident that the matter of ammunition will be a most important factor, if not a determining one, in the result. In this respect the Allies . having the wnole outside world to draw upon so long as their cash or credit holds good, have a de- cided advantage. The new conditions developed by this war have necessi- tated the use of a great deal more ex- pensive ammunition than in any pre- vious war, and a tremendous drain upon the resources of all parties con- cerned 1is inevitable. Which Will be able to meet this demand the longest is merely a question of wnich will be able to continue the contest after the others are exhausted. When we are told, upon competent authority, that the use of fixed am- munition in a four days’ fight along the comparatively short British battle iront, exceeded in quantity and value all that was used in the entire Boer war, we can judge somewhat of the enormous consumption of ammunition on all the battle lines, east and west, together. That the Allies should be ealling upon us for 'supplier of this sort is not strange, nor is it to be won- dered at that the Germans, realizing the situation, should wisn to deprive their enemies of .their outside sources of supply. While beyond question the German war managers had figured closely upon all the known chances of the conflict into which. they went fully prepared, it is not impossible that the excessive use of shot and shell called for by the great guns employed, the largest ever used, and by the largest number of soldiers ever engaged in protracted firing from trenches and cther defenses, has exceeded their estimate and that they are put to it to keep up their side or the affray. They have factorieis running night and day, but it is'a serious question how long they can continue to answer the increasing demand, especially when Italy' brings her one or two million soldiers into the fleld and necessitates a still larger effort on the Austro-German part. We are told that some of the goods sent to the Allies from this country. have been rejected, and not ‘“up to sample.” This may be the case; but the Germans have given the prefer- ence to the ammunition of American make, as more dependable and de- structive than any other. That would be another reason wny they should resent our selling ammunition to the Allies. When in 1877-8 the Turks and Rugsians were both buying am- munition and some other supplies in Connecticut, some concern in this state sent to Turkey a lot of payonets made of sheet-iron, which would not pierce a folded nmewspaper, but bent up double when subjected to strain. These did not come from Bridgeport. which only furnished cartridges and they were of the very best sort with never a complaint from _either side. We do not believe that any of the supplies furnished from this city in the present war will fail to pass any reagonable test. The value of ‘‘Made’| is Bridgeport” will be upneld. England Must Be Warned That It Is Provoking War, (Washington Post.) The Post outlined yesterday the suc- cessive steps taken by the British gov- crnment to shut off commerce . be- tween the United States and neutral nations in Europe, under the pretense of preyenting contraband of war from reaching Germany Now another step Las been taken which practically closes a part of the high seas to neu- tral commerce The British order for- warded by Ambassador Page provides that neutral vessels shall not pass to fcandinavian ports by the north route of Scotland without permission, and then only by keeping at least fifty miles north of the Shetland Islands. The exact language of this British order is as follows: “‘Neutral vessels must appty for per- mission through their foreign repre- sentatives, and failing such, proceed south-about.” An American vessel laden with non- contraband goods for Norway, - for cxample, must first ask permission ¢f the British government through the American embassy before it can proceed on the high sea north of Scotland | to its destination. The British government reserves the right to refuse such permission, in which case the neutral vessel must proceed through the English Channel, where it is sure to be seized by British cruisers. Bvidently the shipments of goods from the United States to Scandina- via are not all stopped. American commerce is not entirely killed. Hence the new order from the British overlord of the seas, designed to shut off entirely all commerce between the United States and Norway, Sweden and Denmark. Bear in mind that this is not'contraband commerce. Cotton, tor instance, is specifically declared to be non-contraband, and the British government has formally notified’ the United States that ‘‘cofton 1s free.” The new order reduces Great Britain’s position substantially to this state- ment: You are permifted—on paper —to send cotton to Scandinavia, or any other non-contrabana goods; but we shall see to it that your goods do not get through. The warning that sailing vessels must keep fifty miles north of the Shetland Islands is conscrued to be a notice that Great Britain is extending it mine fields, in violation of interna- tional law and to the great injury of commerce, But whether the fields are extended or not, the effect of the notice is the same upon insurance companies. They will not insure vessels except at ruinous rates, if they trink the vessels are subject to de- struction by mines. The result is an éffective strangulation of commerce. To what lengths is England going, T iy T merce? To what lengths will the TUnited States permit it to go, before it peremptorily calls a halt? p England has already destroyed the cotton manufacturers of Norway and Sweden. The raw material thése spinners have ordered from the United Slates now lies in British perts. Their factories must close down. Then Lritish cotton manufacturers can g0 into Norway and Sweden and take cver the market. Meantime, the American owner of raw cotton must sell to British manufacturers at their ¢wn price, or go bankrupt. If a British dreadnvugnt were to steam into New York harbor and bom- Lard the factories of that city, war would immediately ensue. But Brit- ieh cruisers are killing off Amgrican commerce just as effectually as if they v/ere bombarding the ractories, and the United States government hesi- tates to call the raiders to account. The duty that confronts the United States is plain. Regardless of the Ger- man note, and regardless of the effect ¢f its action on the belligerents, the United States should immediately dis- patoch a peremptory warning to Great Pritain that the capture of another vessel carrying innoecent goods from this country to a neutrar port will mean war. 7 Great Britain will understand and heed such a w ing. Bvidently rothing short of a threat of war will cause it to desist from its determina- tion to kill off American commerce. A Point of Duty. (New London Telegraph.) Although it isn't hot yet, May is pretty much gone and that distin- guished way-mark in our American calendar, /the Fourth of July, will, as the saying is, be here almost before we know it. It seems as though if there ever was a yvear when that great national holiday ought to be celenrated with full heart and universal observance, this is one, and for reasons so patent 1o every mind that thére is no océasion to enumerate them. A good many years have slipped along since a real old-fashioned Fourth has been celebrated in New London, with everybody turning out and taking part, and people not hav- ing their fun seperately, but all get- ting together for one grand, great time. Precisely the bang and noise of old days would not be welcome again, but the whole of New London let sanely loose for a unanimous and congregational carnival of cheerful patriotism for even just one Indepen- dence Day would be a .thing for long and happy remembrance. Why not &€t them all together, everybody, from the youngest infant 6f the last domi- ciled immigrant to the oldest inhabi- tant of the ancient line able to get cut; split all conventional social boundaries and unite iz a day of fun and demonstration of enthusiastic loyalty to the spirit of American Free- dom' Wouldn't it be well worth while? . It certainly would. Let's do it! Constantinople Fell to Turks Years Ago. (Meriden Record.) Four hundred and sixty-two years kave elapsed since Constantinople fell into the hands of Mohammed II., after o siege of fifty-three days. Moham- med entered the famous seat of early Christian learning on: May 29, 1453, and extinguished the last remains of the eastern empire, The ramous city of sieges, the dominant strategic peint of the old world, 1s today the objective of two giant expeditions on land and sea. The big guns of the English and French areadnaughts, pounding their way against the forti- fications erected by centurles of care, can be heard in the headquarters of the Muslems. From the Russian ports in the Black sea a squadron is pounding the nearer fortifications of the Bosphorous. The ' venturies of misrule under Turkish dominion are coming to a close, and the taking of Constantinople again by the Christians is almost a surety. The famous city founded by Con- slantine the Great on the site of ancient . Byzantium, has been the scene of conflict for ages. The earliest city was founded by Byzas, in 667 B. C. Tt was'occupred by the Medes, the Athenians and the Spar- tans. During succeeding wars it was allied with the Romans. The Romans took the city in the year 73 A. D., but later it rebelled and was retaken after a two years’ siege in the year 196. In 324 Constantine refounded the city, destroying all the heathen temples, and dedicated it as Constantinople in the vear 380. Art, learning and re- ligion flourished at this seat of civiliza- tion, until the great RWoman empire crumbled before the invading hosts of barbarians from the north and east and the inroads of the Turks from Aria. When Mohammed took the city 462 years ago, cannon were still in the experimental stage. Mohammed had a cannon made to the diameter of two and one-half feet, and used stone talls. He had 70,000 men, while the Christian force had been depleted to 9,000. The Turkish fleet consisted of 320 vessels. The Christians were short of gunpowder, and every repulse they inflicted on the Turks brought nearer the day of their own downfall. Bat- tering-rams, cannon and liquid fire were used constantly in the attack upon the half-ruined forts, and at one time the Turks sent forward a wooden turret on rollers which was destroyed. A Christian squadron of only five ships repulsed the Turks in a desperate naval engagement, though Mohammed himself, sitting on his horse on the beach, velled reproaches to his sailors and even spurred his horse into the sea. Mohammed conceived the desperate operation of carrving his ships over- land from the Bosphorus into the harbor. In one night the ' Turkish tleet was thus transferred. The Otto- man cannon demolished the Greek forts in forty days, and the final as- sault began on the morning of May 20th. The Emperor Constantine XIIT. fought to the last and died like a herc. A pitiless sack of theé city began the moment it fell, under the explicit per- mission and even order of Moham- med himself. The Crescent . was flown from the tall dome of the 462 church of St, Sophia, supplanting the | accept the plaudits of tne multitude, © ‘that stood there for centuries. The atrocities of that day in Constan- Unople form one of the must revolting pages in all history, 'Heiptess virgine of the church, women and children were chained into slayery and dragged through the streets by theérr bar- barous conquerors. . That Constantinople has remained in possession of the Turks so , many years ig.due to European diplomacy. The jealousies of nations has played the principal part in preserving the Moslem rule over the important city. The Russian advanced to its outer forts in 1878, but England refused to permit Slav aggression against the Sultan. The alliance between . the Turks and the Germans served .0 break the hands-off edict of the past, and last winter the plans were laid for the taking of Constantinople as the means of breaking Germany and Austria from their effeer in checkiug the difficult operations, bu: the re- syurces of the world are beinind the great attack that is rapidly nearing its goal. The scholars of the modern world are watching the progress toward the famous city with the greatest of in- lerest. The buried treasuries of cen- turies are believed to be again avail- able when the city falls. For when the scholarg of the early days fled into eastern Burope and set up our modern civilization, they left behind them fl.orehoules still untouched. The be- iief that the Turks have not destroyed the ancient libraries 'lends hope to the opening up of vast treasures of knowledge. “Our Colonel at His Best.” (George Harvey, in The North Ameri- can Review.) ’ The United States of America is a large body of land bounded on the north by fishing, on the east by fight- ing, on the south by anarchy, and on the west by rumors of trouble, TIts in- habitants are divided into two classes —'‘the People” and “Roosevelt and Bryan,” both perennial.

Presidents come and go, political par- ties rise and falk issues spring like mushrooms from the fertile soll, only to be supplanted by others, which, too, in turn, wither under the burning sun; but.our unarmed citizenry is im- perishable, and Rooseveit and Bryan can never say die. It is fitting, then, that this venerable journal should s1gnalize the beginning of its second c¥cle with due recognition of the sim- ultaneous reappearance upon the first rages of our public prints of these oUy most cherished heralds of varie- gated. evangels, lest nothing of note ehould be omitted from the pages of historical romance. Although it is a matter of common understanding that the one is a war- rior and the other a pacifist, both are colonels and both crusaders. At the monment two demons engage their re- spective energies—the Demon Boss and the Demon Rum. When these shall have been demolished others will arise in response to call; but sufficient unto the day are the dragons thereof; let the fascinating present transfix our attention. Great was the . popular rejoicing when our more admired but less be- loved colonel was haled into. court by cne Barnes, descended from Belial and designated by an imaginative witness as Nero the ruthless fiddler. The people were wearled by tales of slaughter and eager for diversion such as might tend to relleve the tedium of psychological depression. Their in- terest in the aggressive plaintiff, we take it, was not excessive. Bven the report that he was a Harvard man evoked hardly more excitement than the suspicion that he was also a bad man, so comparatively common have hoth become in recent years. Somie, indeed, so we have been told, assumed that because he was a plaintiff his name was Bardwell and they con- tinued in this belief until they were informed in due course tnhat formerly it was Jekyll, but now it was Hyde. In any case, the people wanted a hero, not a Nero—and they suffered no dis- appointment. *We have never concerned ourselves greatly over the name of the Cuban hill which our militant Colonel as- cended, nor as to whether ne climbed on foot or on horseback; the main point, it always seemed to us, was that, wherever he arrived and how- ever he got there, he thereby demon- strated the possession of exceptional strategic capacity. Unlike others jess observant, therefore, we were not sur- prised when at the very outset, al- though for the first time in his long and active career upon fields of battle, he promptly assumed the defensive, thus obtaining the advanzage of the first and fullest light from the lime— ag\pretty an example of tactical skill &s we can recall. Technically the case was thut of one Barnes, allas Jekyll, alias Hyde, allas Nero, et al., plaintiff, egainst Our Colonel, defendant, for having uttered a libel.

That was all. ‘But did Our Colonel propose to contfipute a fort- night or more of valuable time as an investigation of the proclivities of one Barnes. Hardly!
