yesterday, sailed from Gibraltar on February 49,
Sne had nne weather for six days, and then
encountered a continuation of gales, veering
every Few hours from west-south west to west

squalls. The captain says that in his twenty
five years experience afioat he never encoun
tered such weather. In the squalls the water
was actually torn up in sheets and hove in the
AR. Kahn poured in torrents, and the mast
was fairly binding, and the thunder seemed to

months confinement on the Island, becomes

But the people have indicated wnas
sort of candidates they desire to support, and
We believe the political parties will commit o
serious blunder if they fail to study the popu-
ar sentiment. There is general fesling all
through the State in favor of the nomination
of Judge Church for Governor by the party
that now appears to have the best chance of
success in New York, and it will, we think, be
mistake if any less acceptable candidate
should be named Governor Hoffman is of
course out of the contest, as he has
already held the Office for two terms and
the democrats and liberal republicans have
adopted the one-term principle as their
mlying cry in the campaign The ether State
officers are not so material as the Governor;
but, as we look for real Legislative reform next
year-the present corrupt Senate holding over
this year-it is important that reliable re-
former should be at the head of the State gov
ernment The citizens of New York are even
more deeply Interested in the Mayor of the city,
however, than in the Governor of the State,
and they have indicated their desire that
thoroughly reliable, enterprising and honora-
Some persons have already been named among
the people as desirable candidates. Among them
are August Belmont, John G. Kane, and James
o. Brien. All of these names are unexcep-
ionable. Mr.. Belmont is, of course known
to every resident of New York, as, indeed, he
tleman of large wealth, good ability, cult
waited taste and strict integrity. It is ques-
tionable whether he would accept the nomina-
ton; but if nominated he would assuredly
be elected and would make chief mag
istrate of whom the city would be proud, and
who would be in every way qualified to adj
vance its interests. Mr.. Kane is known as
one of the most diligent members of the pres
ent able Dock Commission and as an intelli-
gent advocate of oil schemes of public i'm
provement. The progress of the city would
be, no doubt, great under his Mayoralty if he
should be nominated. His success would, Of
course, be assured, as he is at once popular,
competent and honest. He would be as de-
cided an opponent of a niggardly parsimony
as of extravaganza and dishonesty. Senator
James O'Brien, both as practical re-
former and vigorous, enterprising politician,
would fill the position Of Mayor with
credit to himself and advantage to the
people In his Senatorial career last winter
he signalized himself as much for his opposi-
ton to the Rip Van Wrinkle policy as for his
fidelity to the cause of reform. He would
represent the bone and muscle of the city, as
represent its brains wealth and refine
ment Either of these names would
insure the success of the ticket on which
it might be placed, and if the politicians
should disregard the popular sentiment and
endeavor to foist some old party hack on to
the people, it is not at all improbable that
independent nominations may be made that
will sweep the city next November as it was
swept last November by the reformers.

The Alabama Claims Arbitration in
Geneva.

The Alabama Claims Arbitration I'm
Geneva.
We are assured from Geneva, by telegram,
that the interruption which occurred just
lately in the proceedings of the Alabama
Claims Arbitration Court was not caused solely
by the desire of the members of the Tribunal
for the enjoyment of q season of much needed
recreation, but, on the contrary, was almost
involuntary, but of absolute necessity on their
part in order to recuperate the judicial intel
lect, SO as to. enable it to grapple with the
legal position which hns been assumed by
Great Britain. It appears, indeed, as if Mr..
Bull has gone back to his first hiding place
within the may intricacies Of the old-time
arguments of Grotius, "Historicus," of the
London Times, and the others of the jurist
writers of whom the world has heard since the
first publication of the Dutch work. De Origine
Centrum Americdnum, in the year 1912. In
fact, the arbitrators are just now reading up
the British law on the subject of the build
ing of privateering vessels in English ports,
their escape therefrom and the matter of
laches, blame; whether the onus should
rest on the shoulders of the First Lord of the
Admiralty or on the head of some revenue
policeman, who may have been, for all the
American people know, dismissed from the
force long since, if he has not been promoted
to commission rank SO high that we shall be
unable to identify him. Of four cases which
have been advanced by the United States the
English deny three IN toto, and plead due dill
gence in the fourth. The work Of settlement
is very slow, and, as Is minated in our de-
spatch, is likely to be concluded by an award
Of Jumped s1m-it is to be hoped it will be
q great big lump-to the Americans. The
arbitrators are rather averse to allowing inter-
est but we need not fret much about that
until we know how big the lump of principal
will be. The lawyers have, as we take it,
placed Her Majesty Victoria, in this Alabama
claims business, in sort Of Fair Rosamond's
bower we are certain she is there, fair and
elegant parsonage, but are totally unable to
find her. The Geneva telegram intimates that
Mr.. Adams may accomplish this part of the
work. But perhaps Mr. Secretary Fish will
be the fortunate man. He has been studying
the matter, as will be seen by the correspond
ence which he has maintained with Earl Gran
vile, and Granville's opinion of it, published
in the HERALD to-day.
