War or . Conference.

If the Sultan's Ministry rejects the terms
proposed by the British government and
supported by all the other governments war
viii follow-that is to say, the Turkish ter
ritory north of the Balkans will be occupied
by the Russian army on the one hand and
the Austrian army on the other. Russia
will occupy Bulgaria and Austria b snia and
Herzegovina. 1t seemed not long since that
this movement of armies would involve
general war; but the case is changed in that
respect. Germany has declared that she will
be neutral in any event between Russia and
the Porte and has so informed both Powers.
England has informed the Sultan that her
interest in his fortunes will end with the
rejection of her plan, and in war follow
ing such rejection he would consequently be
without her support. Either France or Italy
could only be drawn into such war in
the train Of other Powers. Therefore instead
of general war it will be only. an armed
occupation, for before the troops of the two
empires the Sultan could oppose at best but
formal resistance. This would be the re-
suit of his rejection of the proposal, and his
acceptance of it would lead almost inevitably
to revolt of the Moslem population. 1t
would appear, therefore, that the Sultan's
position is not q pleasant one, as it seems ut
first sight that the Sultan must either accept
or reject what is proposed. This however,
is not altogether true. If the suggestion
made some days since by Prince Gortschakoff
of conference of Ministers of Foreign AZ
fairs should be acted upon it would furnish
way out of this difficulty. Putting HIM
self in the hands of such a conference the
Sultan would simply accept the will of
Europe, which would satisfy the Powers,
and the months that might elapse ere de-
cision was reached would probably give time
to cool the irritation in Constantinople and
certainly to concentrate there enough of the
army to guarantee the government.

ance to its limit, and where drain
age equal to ordinary occasions was
found the same as no drainage in extra
ordinary occasions. In Europe these gather
ings were also in some degree provoked by
the great fairs which preceded the COM
mercial system and in the East they are
either of that nature or they are religious
assemblies like the visit to Mecca In Phila-
deiphia the same cause has simply produced
the same effect in modified degree and we
may thank the improvements in medical
science for the fact that the result is only a
slight increase in the general mortality
rather than devastating pestilence.

IT Is AMAZING that such a report rs that
made by Judge Bosworth in regard to the
Guardian Savings Bank can be true, and yet
there is no reason to question it. Mr.. Joseph
]. ODonohue, who is one of tho Park Com
missioncrs, seems to have managed the con-
Germ after its failure in his own interest and
that of his family. The story which we
print in another column is most instructive
one. and shows that honor and integrity are
40 longer considered necessary in the man
.oement of business interests. A surety on
.he bond Of q receiver not only influences
he action of tho courts, but does 1t in his
own interest and even seems to share in the
defalcation Of his puppet Nothing could
bc more terrible than Judge Bosworth's
showing in this case.

CENTENNIAL AWARDS. One of the grossest
outrages known to modern times has been
perpetrated by the Centennial Commission
ers. 1t appears that there were forty or fifty
exhibitors at the Exposition who did not get
any FIRST prizes. They have complained, as
it might be expected they would, and the
Commissioners have appointed committee
to consult with them, take their case into
consideration, find out just what they want
and give it to them. If the funds are ex-
hausted in the purchase of gold medals the
enterprise will go down in blaze of glory.
Having started so well and succeeded so
nobly thus far in furnishing first prizes to
everybody, we sincerely hope the Commits
sioners will satisfy the few whom they had
evidently only forgotten.

ISLAM IN THB FIRIp.-It is not always
Easy to know what people SO indefinite as
The Moslems want. But Europe has no
longer any excuse for ignorance on that
score. In a certain poster placarded at Con-
stantinople the demonds Of Islam are laid
down as follows:--.'l. Servia, Montenegro
and Moldo-W allachia to become part Of Tur-
key. 2. Russia to pay heavy indemnity
and to give up the Crimea and the Black
Sea 3. Europe must undertake to meddle
no more in Turkish affairs If these terms
are not accepted the Turks will choose a
new Sultan and march on Europe imme-
diately. These things are ridiculous enough
NAV have q different aspect.

Crowds and Disease.

Few if any persons are kept away from
Philadelphia by the apprehension that they
may fall victims to the malady which has
undoubtedly attacked many visitors and
caused some deaths; and as people will go
all tho same it is certainly silly on the part
of tho Philadelphians to deny the existence
of IN evil which does them little harm, when
an open admission and the adoption of
proper cautions might save many lives 1t
would be strange if the influx of visitors to
such on extent as 10 nearly double the popu-
lation of provincial town did not have just
such results as are seen in the ravages of
what DIR. Clark SO bluntly calls tho "cess-
pool fevcr;" because it would be con-
trary to experience and would be demon
stration that all sanitary precautions are
useless. If two or three or four hundred
thousand people could crowd themselves
without its ordinary population going out,
and without any addition to its accommoda-
tions in any respect, sanitary science might
be contemplated as grand delusion. In
the Middle Ages Europe was scourged every
few years with pestilence and the East is
scourged in the same way even now. Every
one OF those visitations may be connected
with some event which assembled hundreds
of thousands of people in places where they
could not be lodged without extreme crowd
ing; where the changes of diet and the
variations OF temperature taxed endur-

PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATES AND CONFIDENCE
MEN.-Hitherto the confidence man has cut
n figure in our politics. but not in precisely
the way in which he has made his last ap-
pearance. It is no uncommon fact for man
to trade in conventions of Offices or else
where upon capital that has no existence
save in his own ingenious imagination, and
this is the ordinary role of the political con-
fidence man. In the case of the so-called
American Alliance two Presidential candi-
dates, it now seems, probably were victim
lied in precisely the same way as the unsus-
pecting countryman is victimized on the
street by sharper who sells him brass
watch for a 'solid gold'' patent lever. Gov
ernor Hayes and Governor Tilden-if the
evidence is to be believed dealt on the
assumption that the American Alliance was
something better than solid gold, and it was
evidently the poorest kind of brass.
