Berlin's iatcs scandal case is dis
grace to German civilization. The
law Is that the monarch's uniform Is sa.
cred, and the assumption, that all
members of the reigning family are
embraced by that divinity which
doth hedge a king" That is all very
well when the kings uniform is worn
in proper time and place, aud when
the member of royalty has not forgot
ten the dignity that he represents and
the great immunity which he enjoys
from his position. But does this great
privilege of immunity from personal
harm extend to the uniform and the
prince when the latter gets into a
brawl in disorderly house? In Ger
many apparently II does, judging
from the cool manner in which the
emperor wrote his letter of condo
lence to the father of the young lieu
tenant, who, after having his ears box
ed, and forbidden by etiquet from
duelling with prince of the house OF
llohenzOllern, committed suicide
What Lieutenant PrittwitZ, should
have done was to have had his salts
faction from tine prince then and there
for though he might have received
punishment il IL scarcely probable
that court martial would have adj
mitted that II princes divinity" ex-
tended over the doorsill ola house OF
prostitution.

TIE LICENSING OF Pilots.
what General DumOnt Has TO say
of Some Current Complaints.

A CRITIC reporter saw General Du.
mont, supervising inspector of steam
boats, to-day in relation to the article
published in this mornings Republican,,
charging that widespread dissatisfac-
ton existed among the old river pilots
and shipmGsters about the alleged loose
way in which pilot licenses were issued
by the local inspectors.
~ can only surmisc how that article was
inspired" said General DumOnt "Some
months ago W. A. Moore of Alexandria
was given license by the local inspectors
upon his showing his competency to the
satisfaction of the board. His application
was Endorsed in compliance with the De-
pariment's requirements by three pilots,
viz: Henry c. Graham, a. j. Fair and
Isaac p. Force, all old and trustworthy
pilots of Alexandria. Some days afterward
Il committee from the Associated Pilots
organization called upon me and made the
complaint that Mr.. Moore had never had
the experience required by the rules, ana
Immediately directed the local inspectors
to investigate the case after informing the
committee that the license would be re-
voiod If it was shown that Mr.. Moore had
misrcpresented himself to the Department.
March % Inspectors Saville and Valentine
sent me report favorable to Mr. Moore,
showing that he had been on steam and sail
NO vessels for many years. The Pilots
Association committee again called on me
and charged that Moore had never had the
three years deck experience required by the
rules. This was a mere technical point. |
told the committee that | was heartily in
favor Of the association it represented and
would do everything in my power to further
its welfare; but further said that If it pro-
posed to take advantage Of the technicalities
of the rules for the purpose of oppression
those techncalities would probably be
stricken out by the local inspectors. We
had very pleasant interview, and | am
surprised that anything like GOODNESS is said
to have existed. Whenever charges are
made against n pilot or engineer direct
immediate investigation, and if the charges
are substantiated the mans license is taken
away. An identical case, save in its results,
with Mr.. Moore's was that of Wilfred r.
Thomas of New London, Conn, whose
license was revoked July 10 upon the proof
Of the charges made against him.
at is also charged in the article that there
are several pilots on the Potomac who do not
know their business. If the Republicans
informant will send the names of those pi-
lots to me they will be investigated and
ont they will 20 If the charge is substan-
tiated. No pilot in the United States can
retain his license a minute after he is
proven incompetent

White TrS ing 60 save n aaiS.
There has scarcely been q season since the
beauties Of the Upper Potomac have been
fully appreciated aud its pleasures sought
hy large numbers OF boatmcn that has not
lccn marrcd by one tragic event. The sea
son row drawing TO close Is no longer an
exceptions Hundreds Of people have ON
every pleasant evening sought the delights
of O row ON the siycry river and last night,
for the first time, sad accident occurred,
r,.ultiug In the deaths Of two pcrsons-Mr
John !. Morgan, son Of Senator Morgan of
Alabama, and Mrs. Emma Dclla-Strla Of
No. BIG Il street northwest. Mr.. Morgan
was an enthusiastic canoist, aud spent al
most every evening ON the river Recently
be- has enlisted Miss Lulu McCnrthy's in
tciCsts in the art Of padding. Last even.
ing Mr. Morgan invited Miss Mccarthy and
her aunt, Mrs pcllo-Stcln, To- accompany
him up the river from the boat-housc Of the
Washington Canoe Club Miss Mccarthy
tool, q separate canoe that she might prac-
ticc adding, and Mrs. Dcla-Stella accom-
panied Mr.. Morgan In double canoe.
The Iarty proceeded mcrrily up the river
with the purpose Of securing sight Of the
Chain Bridge before turning back. This
was accomplished Just as the darkness was
gathering and sguall of wind was rising.
The canoes turned back, quarter Of Il
mile below the bridge, shortly after seven
o'clock, Miss McCurthy's canoe was In the
lead, and in looking back she saw her COM
IauiOus' canoe Causi2c. In turning round
1t mad been caught by the wind, forced on a
ledge Of rock aud upset. The young lady
Padded quickly to the rescue, seeing the two
l,diDs struggling few seconds In the
water, and then sinking. Mr.. Morgan called
to her 10y name as he disappeared under the
water BY the time she reached the cap
sized canoe q hat floating upon the water
was all that marked the place where they
had sank.
The bodies did not rise, and after waiting
some time the young lady padded down
the river and summoned assistance from
passing boatmcu. At lloltzmnn's, the
young lady, then almost overcome by hor-
ror and excitement was cared for and sent
lone. Messages were dispatched to Scua-
tor Morgan, and men were summoned with
nets to drag the river. All night long the
dragging continued without success.
Mr.. Morgan was thirty-hye years of age,
II native of Alabama, and employed rs his
fathers private secretary. He was we'll
known here, particularly in boating circles.
Mrs. Della-Stela was a widow, u clerk In
the General Land Office, ard also we'll
known here. Mr. Morgan was an expert
swimmer and his friends believe that his
Efforts to save his companion must have
cost him his own life. Miss Mccarthy, al
though witnessing with intense anxiety the
movements Of both persons in tue water,
could see little more than that both sank
almost Immediately, and did not again rise
to the surface.
