In giving this faot the consideration it demands, the admiring world will also take due note of the additional fact that the Dresden was first sunk; the apol- ogy came after, and, so far as the German ship ts concerned, fs in no sense retroactive. The case has peveral aspects that are of more than pessing Interest. It is hardly likely. that the commander of the Britigh squadron whieh pur- sued and evertook the Dresden {s so poor a nav- {gator that he did not know the prey he sought wag In the jurisdietion of Chile, and, had he troubled to make brief inquiry, he might have learned what is now known, that the Chilean government was in charge of the Dresden. Chile will, of courge, accept the apology, hav- ing no desire to engaga In hostilities, but the {ncident serves to emphasize the eare with which the belligerents regard the rights of neutrals. snd the pains théy take to observe with due punctilio the obligations assumed under treaties, The Dreaden affair presents the most flagrant breach of neutrality on part of any of the navies since the war began, and it will arise to haunt the British admiralty long after the war Is over. er————— Same Elsewhere.

The owners merely followed a ous- tom that dates back to the beginning of things, that of anchoring the vehicle next to the curb, and which was permitted to grow, unt!l with the increasing number of automobiles on the street the old plan is no longer practical, but Is cum- bersome aund obstructive. Parking cars in the middie of the street has been well tested in other cities, and has been successful. Omaha motor owners doubtless will cheerfully co- operate with the authorities in this, as they have in other ways, to the end that the streets be kept free as possible for the use of automo- blles as well as other vehicles.
