From TIE KINDERGAhTEN TO TIL

1t Is difficult, we admit, TO place any limit to
the blundering or worse of Secretary Bayard.
But surely he has outdone himself, or rs the
Jockeys would say :" beat his own record in
sending the young son OF Senator Vest, OF
Missouri, around the world on Junketlng tour
at the expense OF the Government Treasury.
The pretence, we know. is that Master Vest
goes on this extended tour to inspect our Con-
sulates That is adding insult to injury. or
adding fraud 10 fraud. The lad is no more
competent to inspect Consulates intelligently
than he would be to write new work on
international law. He has been for a short
time consular cadet. and his appointment to
the responsible duty with which he Is charged
is Just as absurd as it would be to promote a
law student to the bench OF the Supreme Court.
Mr.. Bayard deserves severe censure for the
appointment and if Senator Vest escapes critl-
clsm in Missouri he must have "A long suffering
and patient constituency.

NAIIONAL DEEENCE.

Lieutenant Grifin's paper on coast defences
read before the Military Service Institution,
only afforded confrmatOry details in demon
straton of what all the country has long
known namely that the United States have no
defence against an attack from the sea. This
fact The TRIBUNE and other journals have for
years sought TO impress upon Congress, but so
far without effect. 1t cannot be that the Ma
tional Legislature is afraid of undertaking the
necessary expenditure, because five times the
amount needed is spent every year in far less
important enterprises 1t cannot be that Con-
gress has no time to attend to the question of
National defences, for it squanders weeks and
months upon ephemeral political discussions.
It il difficult to understand how mOmentOus
a subject can be so persstently ignored and
trihed with, unless the explanation is to be
found in the prevalence of blind optimism
which argues that because We are at peace with
all the world to-day we shall always be. To
those who observe events, however, 1t Is plain
that already the germs of external cOmplica-
tions are in sight, in the serious questions GER
tain before long to arise in connection with the
Panama Canal, and the Isthmus transit gener-
ally. AS the case stands, the United States has
no status there save by the courtesy OF the
European Powers. AS against them or any of
them we are impOtent To assert and maintain
treaty or other rights. And since diplomacy
unsupported by fleets and armies must always
be futile when serious interests are involved, 1t
follows that VIC could not hold our present posi-

MONEY And BUSINESS

Last week was one of unusual inactivity in
business. There was exceptional interest in
the unprecedented auction sale of 20, 900 pack
ages of cotton goods, which proved great
success. The ready sale of 80 large a quantity
OF goods, at prices close to those previously
ruling III the market. helped the dry-goods
trade to somewhat greater activity during the
latter part of the week. so the unusually
adrOit manipulation OF opposing parties in the
stock MAJ ket gave holders an opportunity,
which they embraced with joy. to sell large
blocks of some securities, behind the wash
board, 80 to speak, and the speculation in wheat
enabled somebody to sell 100000 bushels
on Monday. But no great change followed in
the stock or the grain market, and the dulness
generally prevailing was reflected In the ex-
changes at the chief cities, which show romarka-
bio losses IN comparison with the corresponds
ing week last year at Boston about 13 per
cent at Philadelphia about 80 per cent, at
Baltimore about 20per cent, ut Chicago about
IL per cent, at St. Louis about 13 per cent,

The practicability of having baseball and

light has often been discussed but the expert
mont has never received thorough tiial. On
Wednesday night of this week the Williams
burg Athletic Club will give the scheme care
full test. If it should prove successful it may
have marked effect ON the future of athletic
sports. The thought of broiling sun, on a

ing athletic grounds. If the games could taGe
place in the cool air of the evening and at
time when people are more at leisure, the at
tendance would be greater and the sport would

1t was not passed. But no harm will be done if the
