Earl Carnarvon,. Position.

Earl Carnarvons retirement from the
Cabinet was announced by the Turcophile
organs in England, and was put in the
light Of consequence Of his recent re-
assuring address on the relation of England
to the war, which, it was thence assumed,
was not approved of in the Cabinet and was
contrary to the policy of the govern
ment. It would indeed have needed
explanation if Carnarvon, retiring from
the Cabinet on that point, had retired
alone since he divides with at least one
or two others the burden Of opposition to
the crotchety policy of what may be called
the war party in the administration. Had
Carnarvon retired from the Ministry and
retired alone it is evident that this fact
would have deprived the movement of any
significance in relation to the war or peace
policy, since the other opponents of war
would certainly have gone with him in a
resignation made necessary by that issue,
and his retirement would have been ac-
counted for exclusively on the ground
Der of the government making out
side declarations OF Its policy on
points on which that policy was not deter
mined. But it happens that Earl Carnar-
Won has not resigned and is not likely to !;
and it is scarcely necessary to point out
how this fact, not necessarily significant in
itself, becomes significant in view of the
declarations so loudly made of what his re-
tirement might mean. If his retirement
might have meant that the war party had
forced out of the Cabinet one of the peace
party, his remaining, supposing the attempt
to force him out was made, must mean that
in Cabinet council the peace element is
either stronger than the country has be-
lieved, or the other side is less demonstra-
tive, and only gets on its high horse for the
entertainment of sympathizing public

Yesterdays bulletin of the condition of
the King of Italy is not altogether en-
couraging. An aggravation Of the fever and
m irregular pulse, whether they imply a
dangerous extension Of the Inflammation
and considerable pleuritic effusion or the
peculiar effect Of the disease upon the nerv-
Gus system, are equally untoward facts.
Even the cessation of pain, though it's effect
irritation, may not be, on the whole, q
favorable sign, as it may mean the some

What a Pityl

What pity it is that the exhaustive and
able report on street cleaning made by Mr.
Thatcher NJ. Adams, of the Municipal
Reform Association, did not reach the eyes
of Mayor Ely prior to his famous ''investi-
cation" of his own charges against the
Police Commissioners What pity that
the Mayor had not seen or read or heard Of
that terrible arraignment of the Commits
sioners for utter neglect Of duty and shame
full squandering and waste of the public
funds before he gave them clean record,
and acknowledged that his own charges
had been made inconsiderately and with
out proper understanding of what he
was doing! Perhaps sight of Mr. Adams
able and convincing document, SO strongin
facts, so courteous in tone so damaging in
conclusions and so convincing in argument,
might have had the effect of inspiring the
Mayor with sufficient courage to defy the
threats and browbeatings of clustering law
yers Weak backs are benefited by strength
ening plasters, and perhaps the Adams re-
port might have had the effect of one OF
those useful articles on our amiable Mayor.
Besides the Mayor is supposed to represent
not Mr.: Smith Ely, Jr., but the citizens of
New York, in q prosecution of unfaithful
and incapable public officers, and his weak
dismissal of his own charges against the
Police Commissioners, after hearing only
their own tale MS told by interested wit
nesses. does not look well in the light of
the crushing evidence in support of those
charges that is now brought forward by Mr..
Adams, and which the Mayor could have
had for the seeking. Yes, it is a pity that
Mayor Ely did not know as much about his
own duties as Mr.. Adams knew before the
famous 'charges" were dismissed for want
of proof
