THE SNUBBING OF THE SENATORS. * Notice has been served before on the public by the onetators that this coal strike is their own affair to be ended only as they see fit, that is to say by the uncon- ditional surrender of tho miners, Consequently it must be held that the attempted intervention of the Governor ' and the three Senators was unwarranted intrusion, iterally “‘meddling,” just as Mr. Baer characterized it. Fresh from an interview with Mr. Morgan the Read- | ing’s President sald to the would-be conefliators: “I say | and I reiterate it that we will not accept political advice or allow the interference of politicians in this, our af- fair.” And though the voice was Baer's the words were Morgan's, from which there is no recourse. They reaf- firmed plainly and with all necessary emphasis the policy adopted and consistently adhered to by the operators since the beginning of the strike, to wit: No arbitration, “0 concessions and no interference with “this, our affair.” So there was nothing left for the Governor and the three Senators but to bow to the superior power and re- treat as the Governor of Pennsylvania retreated, over the same route and at the ond of a similarly fruitless mission to Broad street earlier in the history of the strike. What other result could they have expected of their rash intru- sion where their presence was resented? Was it to be "given to Senators to do what a President had failed "| to do? CHEAP COAL FOR THE POOR. ‘The charitable plan of the coal-carrying roads to dis- tribute stove sizes of anthracite to the poor in small lots fat 15 cents a pail is commendable enough. But 1,500 ‘tons will not go far to feed the fuel famine in the densely populated tenements of the east aide. The scarcity which before the approach of cold weather has reduced hun- " dreds of families to the straits of picking up refuse wood in the streets and watching for driftwood at the plers is not to be appeased by this scant dole from the mines. ‘And these distressing conditions will be made worse by ce. | the first slight drop in the temperature. A little quiet alms at home in the way of concessions 4o their miners would have made this ostentatious city charity unnecessary. IF WILLIAMS WERE BACK. Rumor yesterday had Inspector Willlams back in = authority at Mulberry street, even at the top, and the "imagination of old-timers pictured a return of the golden |) age of “graft,” the “quiet” Saturnian times before the | birth of Lexow Committees. * It was a roseate vision while it lasted, a red-light - color scheme, It pictured the handsomest of New York > policemen with nightstick upraised clubbing heads in his progress and incidentally clubbing larger obstacles. A fault in a policeman, but perhaps a venial one in the © Ught of the Hoe riots and one at least not indicating in- decision of character or lack of purpose. It revealed fate by comparison with the enterprises of the larger © operators whom the force has since developed. An ex- ) pansion that has kept even pace with the expansion of ~ the city. It showed the Tenderloin wide open and the ‘man who named it watching the Haymarket {n full blast and the Silver Grill.’ But there was no view of a resort with a visitor's chopped-off head half consumed in the furnace. picturesque one. It recalled a period of police history when not much consideration was given to “Ideals” in| _ the Department and when the real was not all it should pe put not wholly objectionable by contrast with ten) months of ideals which have resulted in a “condition ‘worse than Deveryism,” as Dr. Parkhurst phrases it. A NAME TO CHERISH, A Greek immigrant applying for naturaltzation papers yesterday gave his name as Constantinius Papaconstan- tinopoulos. . It is a patronymic to be proud of if one fanctes length and ‘t gives hint of a line of descent from a greater than “Ba Vere de Vere ancestry. One advantage of possessing it would be that a forger could never successfully sign it to a check. But it would be an embarrassing mouthful for love's young dream to lisp, and an enemy seeking to use it in haste and anger would run the risk of laryngeal - paralysis. What its owner's vocation is we do not know, but to live up to it he should wear a patriarchal beard and aspire to the Greek priesthood.

Marie tried to avert such difficulties by keeping her husband supplied with pocket money from her own earnings, but dis needs grew greater as the time wore on. Marie, too, had a private trouble, which was also a joy, coming on, and she did not feel strong enough to work as hard ax she would have wished, And so the time passed until the spring came round.

At the news both men hurried to the shop where the gendarmes had conveyed the remal An official inquiry by the authorities was now necessary. As the Inquiry was long and tedious, old Beaumont thought it might be fitting opportunity for him to change the hiding place of his money. He went quietly away to his own house, and, taking his spade, sought the tree where he had made the cachet and began to dig. Presently he turned up the pleoe of canvas, and his heart sank within him, for {t was empty. The old man was almost distracted at his loss. Fran- Ucally he dug and dug, as if the earth could give him back the treasure which had been taken from it. Then when he realized that the savings of his lifetime had gone he was for a while as if dazed. Presently he woke again to a sense of his loss, and then began to behave in quite an extravagant fashion. He tore his hair and wept and invoked ven- geance on the thief. As a rule peasants are misers, ‘The nature of their work and their lives implies this, for thrift carried to the extromest verge of parsimony 1s the backbone of their @uccess.

No one in all his long life had ever seen him in such a state of mind, Presently a new {dea seemed to strike him, and saying to himself over and over again, ‘The gendarmes! they will see me righted," he began to run to- wurd the wine-shop, It was & new sensation to the v lagers, when the richest and most re- spected man In the place came running among them calling out, “I have been robbed!

You cannot know what misery you are bring- ing me." Her father was amazed, her husband astonished. The gendarme, with an ex- pression of sympathy, sald, “I am sorry, madame, but I must search you.” With @ gesture of despair she emptied her pockets on the table, The money was all there, ‘Then the officer spoke: “This unhappy matter seems clear enough.
