Sensible and TO ,he Point

The New York Times says. editorially, to-day:
"A good illustration OF the viciousness of Con-
gTes; ional methods is found In the treatment of
the Proposition to reclaim the Potomac flats by
tbr Hcuse committee on commerce. Nobody
disputes the necessity for draining the peStflent
marshes which border the Potomac river at
Washington. And 1t would seem that the proper
place for an appropriation for such purpose is
In the river and harbor improvement bill. But
the committee on commerce have already put
appropriations aggregatlng some IS, 900, 900 into
this bill, and they say that to add to 1t the
81 Sl,250,OoO required to reclaim the Potomac
amounts to q confession that the jobs by which
Senators and Representatives strengthen their
popularity with their constituents must over
ride any really needful appropriation. Nearly
all OF the SO called river and harbor improve
ments authorized by Congress are nothing but
deliberate thefts. There are no constituents to
be flattered and t!ckled by an appropriation to
make the national capital more habitable. This
statement explains the habitual neglect by
Congress OF the city Of Washington"
CADET wH1rrAxER's casual N p. Herald
reporter called on Cadet Whitaker to learn
how he felt about the success OF his application
for trial by court martial. He said that he
Is pleased at the turn things have taken and
grateful to the President for giving him an Op-
portunity to be vindicated by court martial

prevail; and for that object would fight to The
out right now" The Herald says: His counsel
are to be Mr.. Emery A. Storrs, Of Chicago, and
Mr.. Brewster, OF Philadelphia, with Professor
Greener, who was his adviser during the court
OF inquiry. He expresses confidence in their
ability to clear him. AS to new evidence that
has been promised, he says whatever there NAV
be will soon be before the public. DR.. Fulton
has prepared q memorandum of some of the
facts In Whittaker's case, several Of which have
not Deen published, among them the averment
that fresh evidence has lately been obtained
concerning the story that became famous at
the time OF the inquiry last spring az the
'Three Cadets Story" By means of this evi-
dence 1t Is proposed to develop facts that are
expected to connect the story with the case
directly. Whittaker's story, as told to DR..
Fulton, also contains fresh recitals OF indig-
mites that he endured at West Point.
