When sailors see nautilus sailing along
they say, Portuguese man-o'-war,-no gottee
man, no gottee gun" If something is not
done for our Navy soon, an American man-of-
war will speedily answer to the same descrip-
ton. The number of men going to make up
ships crew in the United States Navy mas Deen
steadily reduced of late years until row
man-of-war carries barely enough sailors to
perform the routine work of the ship. With
the exception of the Trenton, possibly there
is not a vessel in the service with sufficient
crew or proper armament. The present emer-
gency at the Isthmus will serve good pur-
pose if it awakens public sentiment in this re-
spect.. The rapidity and facility with when
the blue Jackets and marines at the Brooklyn
Navy Yard were got ready yesterday reflects
credit on Commodore Chandler and his SUBJ
ordinates and shows that if there is delay IN
sending off naval assistance when it is required
the naval officers are not to blame.

PROTECTION GAINING ABROAD.

One of the most striking features of the COM
mercia history of the times is the marked IN
crease of favor with which protective leglsla-
ton is regarded in different countries. Within
the past year we have seen measures enacted
by Germany France, and Belgium, intended to
increase greatly the protection hitherto Afforded
by tariffs. The Government of Anstro- Hungary
has now reported measure largely increasing
the duties on about 90 articles including many
manufactured products, and it is believed that
the measure will pass, "a q considerable ma
iority in the legislative body appears to favor
it, According to estimates in English Journals,
the increase in duty ranges from % to 100 per
cent
In all the European countries protection IL
desired even more by the agricultural interests
than for the defence of manufactures. The
principal object of the recent changes OF tarlf
by Germany and France was to encourage an
Increased production of grain, and check the
growing dependence of those countries upon
foreign producers. Within the past year or so,
n cargo of American wheat was landed mt an
Austrian port not far from Vienna, and it is
not improbable that the new duties proposed
will tend to check imporiatons of grain as well
as of manufactured products. But while Ger
many and France, Belgium, and now Austria,
devise measures for the more effective protec-
ton OF their manufactures, 6le working people
of Great Britain find the demand for their pro-
ducts steadily decreasing and appeal in vain to
their Government for "A measure of relief.
Ii is no longer question whether this or
that policy might be the wisest, If all nations
would adopt it. Practically the question is
syh.thsr this country has reason to favor un-
limited and unrestricted imports from European
nations, which. on their part, take great care to
defend their industries against American COM
petition. While Great Britain adheres to its
free trade IDEAS the British Colonies, one after
another, insist upon protecting themselves not
only against competition from other countries,
but also against Great Britain. SO it comes to
pass that the duties eEacted by Canada on inn
ports from Great Britain were much heavier
last year than the duties exactcd on imports
from the United States. All over the civilized
world the tendency of opinion is against the
theories which Great Britain teaches, and in
harmony with those which the United States
has for a quarter of century maintained with

energy is shown in pushing troops to the front,
though the journey (2,1O0 miles from Toronto)
is not only long but full of breaks in the rail-
way communications. The Toronto contingent
is expected to reach Winnipeg tonight or to-
morrow morning. 1t will then have to travel
324 miles by rail to QAppelle, and 267 miles
from Q'Appelle station to Prince Albert, by

The trial or James W FISH, .no 'pu'Soou
president of the broken Marine Bank, took on
an interesting phase yesterday, when the
prisoner himself was put under cross-exami-
nation He appeared to poor advantage as a
guileless old fellow deceived by dishonest
partners. II is extraordinary how readily
man who gets himself into the unpleasant fix
of James d. Fish assents to statements which,
If true, show that he never was fitted by ability
Oet alone honesty and integrity to hold the
position he did.
The bills to force the County Clerk and the
Register of Kings County to account for all OF
their fees and receipts were strenuOusly opposed
when they were discussed in the Assembly at
Albany but we are glad to see that they have
appeared again in the Senate with chance OF
passing. They are just and proper measures
and are strongly upheld by public sentiment
Some of the legislators who at first opposed
now support them. This indicates regard for
the wishes of their constituents for which the
members deserve credit.
II il one thing to give veteran soldiers and
sailors the preference over other persons who
have passed the Civil Service examination but
another to exempt them entirely from the
operation of the Civil Service laws. Yet the
latter proposition was favored by majority of
the Assemblymen at Albany yesterday-by
more Democrats, however, than Republicans.
This fact in itself ought to put the Republicans
on their guard. The plan to exempt the
veterans from all examinations is loudly
appladded by the most pronounced OF the
spoils- loving Democrats.
If there is one thing which the Board of Es-
innate and ApportiOnment OF this city ought to
have authority to settle it is the amount OF
salary to be paid to the minor assistants in the
city courts and the municipal departments.
The members of the Board are the best judges
of what the services of such employees are
worth. Yet it is the pernicious habit of some
of the legislators at Albany to introduce bills
70 fix by law the pay of all kinds of employees
as for instance, yesterday, one to pay the of
fetal Interpreter of the City Court $4,000. OF
course when q sum is allowed by law in any
case the Board of Estimate cannot touch it, no
matter how much less the services are worth.
1t Is time to stop this petty tinkering.
Outraged respectability in Philadelphia at
present is ahead of Sullivan and Mccartney,
the sluggers. On the affidavit of a highly re-
spected resident of the city. the men were ar
rested yesterday, charged with conspiracy to
break the peace, and held In $4,000 for trial,
and like sum to keep the peace for thirty
days. The authorities had pretty good ground
to stand on in this case for it has been current
ly reported that bad blood exists between the
boxers, and If they had once begun the fight
doubtless they would soon have been terribly
in earnest. Thus the match is decidedly of for
the present; but if Sullivan and Mccartney
ehoose to contest the matter in the courts, they
ril doubtless get the better Of the authorities
