Somebody has Numbered again, and, as usual,
human life was imperiled by the blunder. 1t
is indeed almost miracle that every one In
the house in SecOnd-ave. which was crushed
yesterday was not killed. When labOrers dig
ging foundations are permitted to undermine
adjoining walls, somebody is manifestly to
blame. If the Superintendent of Buildings is
of any use except to pocket the emoluments
and perquisites of the Office he has secured by
his alliance with Tammany, he might have
prevented this disaster as well as a similar
one some little time ago in Broadway. We
have had of late so many of these so-called
accidents, that it is time an earnest effort was
made to prevent them. Here is an Opportu-
nifty for the Mayor to use the power he so
coveted and show that he is something more
than an expensive ornament

the alleged crueties, we can only in
reply request him to read the dis
patches transmitted within the last few
months, from Havana, under the direct
authority of Capt. Gen. de ROdas. These DIS
patches have shown that the execution OF
Cuban prisoners and Cuban political and
military leaders has been carried on cease
lessly and remorselessly, and to an extent
without parallel in any other modern insurree-
ton. Perhaps, however, Senior Moret does not
consider these butcheries cruel
1t will be observed by the date 10Th May) OF
the Parliamentary movement on the CUBAN
question: that it is now some SIX weeks Since
the British Government extended an invitation
IN orr Government to cooperate with 1t Tor the
nurnose of irving to mitigate the horrors
" Of civil war in Cuba" If the American
Government ever replied to this invitation, or
took any steps in the direction OF cooperation,
we have not been informed. We presume
that Mr.. Thornton, the British Minister at
Washington, took the trouble to bring the
proposition of Mr.. Otway to the notice OF Sec
retary Fish and it would certainly have been
greatly to our honor, and to the advantage OF
humanity, if it had been promptly acted upon.
During the six weeks that have elapsed
since Mr.. Otway's proposition of coop
Grafton, there have been hundreds of
horrible executions in Cuba-many of them
particularly cruel-such, for example, as the
garroting of Gen. GoicOuria and of the son
of President Cespedes. 1t is painful thing
to have the thought rise to our mind at this
time, that we might, at least, have saved
some of the noble victims of the last few
weeks, and otherwise "mitigated the horrors
of the Cuban war;" by promptly cooperating
with the British Government, according to the
proposition of Mr. 0tway.
1t is not now necessary for us to suggest to
our Government the step that should next be
taken in regard to this Cuban business. The
Congressional resolution of Thursday last, III
connection with Mr.. Otway's proposal, fur
nishes all the suggestion that ought to be neces-
sary. But promptitude of action IL now almost
as important as intelligence of action.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1870-06-18
THE COOLIES IN a NEW FIELD.


Massachusetts, grapples the Coolie problem in
another spirit than that Of California or the
South, and we believe time will prove hers
the wiser resolve. There arc singular contrasts
in the circumstances which force this question
into prominence, and in the methods by which
its solution is attempted. California, which
needed labOrers, accepted her Coolies under
protest, and now, in obedience to another
laboring element which is also a political
power, seeks to restrict their further immigra-
ton. The South, in still stranger mood
and more glazing folly, rejects the labor
herself established and educated for
the sole reason that it has attained political
power and seeks, in her spiteful temper, to
introduce unskllled creatures in whom she has
no confidence. Massachusetts, on the contrary,
not wanting labor but forced by a combination
of more than 10000 of her skilled workmen
producing annually single article to the
amount of $90,OO00O0. imports Coolies to her
workshops, and hopefully and heartily well
comes them. In California they get blows that
brighten them away; in the South they are re-
ceived with doubts that discourage; in Mas
sachusetts with full work and fair wages that
inspire them. There is for them taxation in
the West; contempt in the South fair play in
the East Tested thus differently, the problem,
of course, results differently. California farmers
pronounce the Chinaman lazy, dirty, and de-
structive, and want no more of him; Southern
planters, having hardly begun the experiment,
already think John poor substitute for SambO;
a Massachusetts manufacturer finds him in
dustrious, intelligent, clean, and economical
and all the other manufacturers cry for him tn
come.
But the Knights of st. Crispin in Massa-
chusetts demand that he shall not come to
that State, and by violent threats against the
little colony in the Berkshire Mountains and
by infiammatory appeals to Congress seek at
once to stop this immigration, and to make
the issue between themselves, or rather their
organization, and the manufacturers of Massa-
chusetts a political question. Ii is all in vain.
The immigration cannot be stopped, and the
duty of Congress is to regulate it. The pres
ent issue in Massachusetts, is not worthy and
is not destined TO assume any grave political
Importance. Massachusetts, which has pros
pered under immigration, and doubled her
manufactures each decade for thirty years, ia
not to suffer under the influx of the Coolies.
The Knights of st. Crispin may suffer, how
ever, If they blindly persist in their effort TO
maintain wages at rates which the state Of
trade, the condition of finance and the cost
OF living do not justify. BY organizing
to regulate their wages and maintain them
at the war standard they have forced one man
ufacturer TO resort 10 the experiment of
introducing a new and cheaper class of
laboIers. If they continue TO support it, their

TILE NEXT STEP.

BY the resolution which passed the House of
Representatives on Thursday, President Grant
was authorized to demonstrate against the bar
barism of the war in Cuba, and, if "he deems
" it expedient, to solicit the cooperation of
"other Governments in such measures as he
"may think necessary to secure from both
" contending parties an observance of the laws
"of war, as recognized by all civilized nations
This idea of cooperation with other Govern
ments was doubtless suggested by recent
semi-official proposition made in the British
Parliament by member of Mr.. Gladstone's
Government. 1t was on the 9th of last month
that the Under Foreign Secretary, Mr.. Otway,
said in the House of Commons, in reply to q
question put to him, that the Spanish authOri-
/" ties were fully able to suppress the Cuban
" insuuection," and that the interference of
" Her Majestys Government, which had been
" suggested, was inoppOrtune )" but he prom
Used that the Government (British) would
mot fail to seize any occasion to mitigate the
"hOrrOrs of civil war in that Island, and it
would be highly desirable to have the CO.
Operation of the Government of the United
"States.n
In the Spanish Constituent Cortes, on the
21st of last month, a deputy questioned the
Government as to the reported concert of
action between England and the United States
to effect mitigation of the so-called Span
"ish horrors" in Cuba. Senior Moret Minister
for the Colonies, replied that some reports had
been published, but the Spanish Govern
ment was without official information on
the subject. He desired, however, to say
that the Captain General of Cuba had repeat
eddy invited American Commissioners to visit
Cuba and examine into these alleged cruelties,
in order that they might see the falsity of the
current reports. The accuracy of the last part
of Senior Moret's statement has been semi
officially denied in Washington, and it has
been alleged, on behalf of Secretary Fish, that
no such invitation was ever made to our Gov
eminent. AS to Senior MOret's denial of
