THE COST OF MODERN WAR.

The New York Evening Post makes
the following very remarkable assertion
at the close of an article ON the probable
consequences of wal between England
and Russia: "There is no apparent rea-
SON why England should not fight a
quarter of a century with as little finan-
cial difficulty as she fought from 1893 to
1916"
Perhaps not, if she could get Russia to
fight with her so long, and could conduct
war on a scale of expense 10 greater than
that of the French wars, meantime main.
tanning undisturbed her manufactures
and her commerce.
But modern wars are so costly a luxury
that even the richest States cannot afford
to fight long. Says.the New York Sun:
The debt of England at the beginning Of
the French war in 1893 was about 81, 200,-
600, 600, and in 1917 it was about 81, 2O0,.
600, 900, now it is in the neighborhood of
SO, 700, 900, 900.
The French wars increased her debt by
about three billions of dollars. The war
with Germany in 1901 cost France
about a thousand million dollars, ex-
elusive of the indemnity to Germany,
and yet it lasted only a few months. At
the present rate of cost for wars such as
that England seems to be about to enter
upon with Russia she would therefore be
likely to expend in three or four years as
much as all her fighting cost between
1898 and 1915, and what would be the
sum at the end of a quarter of a century,
if she continued the contest, as the Post
saws she could do with little financial
difficulty?
A vastly increased debt would weigh
on the people, increasing the cost of pro.
duction and handicapping her in the race
for supplying the markets of the world
with manufactures. Meantime her ocean
would be seriously disturbed,
if not taken away altogether, and her
ability to stand up under the increased
debt would be lessened, and her capacity
for earning would be greatly diminished.
She would be bankrupted long before the
period was over.
1t is absurd, therefore, to talk as the
Post does about England's power to keep
up the fight for a quarter of a century
without financial disturbance. Even if
she fights no longer than two or three
years, she will suffer a strain which will
be severe on her, with all her wealth and
productive capacity.

A DEMOCRATS VIEW.

A Boston Democrat writes to the New
York Sun as follows: Carl Shurz has
been in Boston, and was dined, of course.
Four Unitarian clergymen blended their
religious views with their political NUT
ton. They were all for "purity in poll
TICS" especially Schurz, who recon-
mended, nay, insisted, that the Federal
Administration should keep the Republi-
cans in office until their terms expire,
and then reappoint them, because, he
argued, if their places were filled by
Democrats, and the present Administra-
tion should be succeeded by the Republi-
cans returning to power, they would
turn the rascally Democrats out, and SO
Civil Service Reform would prove a dead
failure and a humbug. Some of us
thought of 1876, when Schurz, John
Sherman, and Agnes jerks and the rest
of them aided the Chambers to defraud
the people and count in Hayes; how
Schurz was rewarded with an Office; how
all the rest, from Agnes to John Sher-
man, who had a hand in the business,
were rewarded by appointments to Office,
which they most of them now hold.
Schurz thinks Cleveland and Hendricks
should let them all stay in office, and
when their terms expire reappoint them,
all for "purity in politics." In other
words. Cleveland and Hendricks must
condone what was done to Tilden and
Hendricks, and let the fraudulent agents
of the fraudulent leaders continue to
warm their toes at the Government fur
mace.
For colossal cheek commend us to a
Mugwump gathering. We good people
do SO wish you Democrats were as good
as we are, they say, and add that they
do not object to "good" Democrats
being appointed to Office. but is there
such a thing or person as a sweet.scented
Democrat in their range of observation ?
Here is a body Of people, claiming to
be Republicans, attempting to dictate to
a Democratic Administration its appoint
ments, but who oppose the Administra-
ton party in the State; who propose to
vote for the reelection of Robinson as
Governor, that they may help elect him
United States Senator to vote against
and oppose the Federal Administration
they claim to support, as they did vote
for Republican members of Congress like
Ranny and others, who oppose the Ad-
ministration and the party which sup.
ports it.
Perhaps a Government can be carried
on, and an Administration made success
full by it's enemies. 1t never has been
done. As Father Richie used to say,
"Nous verrons

BETRAYAL OF GORDON.
How Khartoum Fell into the False
Prophets Hands.

Advices from Korti state that the CANVASS
who has given the most intelligent and to all
appearances the most trustworthy account of
the events attending the fall of Khartoum is
named Abdul Kerim He was one of Cen
eral Gordon's servants. He secured his es-
cape from Khartoum after the city fell, he
says, by bribery. He bought n camel and
crossed to Debbeh, the Journey talk
ing twelve days From Debbeh he came to
korti in an English pinnace. He says that
fardg, upon whom Gordon relied implicitly,
was really the person who delivered kEartoum
over to FL Mahdis troops When They en-
tered the city it was Farag who prevented the
garrison from firing upon them, Tho story
that Farag had once been slave, and that
General Gordon secured his liberation, and
that when he subsequently entered Gordon's
service the latter was deceived into mistak.
ing Farag's zeal for evidence of gratitude, is
coToborated by the CANVASS. He says that
when Gordon made Farag military COM
mandant he used to receive letters from Fl
Mahdi. When Gordon would ask him about
this correspondence Farag would say the let
tiers were unimportant. and Gordon appar-
emily took him at his word.
Concerning the massacre in khartoum Alb
dul kerim states that General Gordon's clerk
and the chief clerk of the arsenal were killed
I'll Mahdi did not enter Khartoum until the
third day after its capitulation He in
spected the city and then returned to
Omdurman, where he remains. After
General Gordon fell Abdul kerim says the
Arabs killed his clerk and nine others with
spears The others who were at the
time with Gordon escaped. The cavass
declares that, with the exception of the
attack in which these murders were COM
mltted, there was no fighting in Khartoum.
During the attack, however, all the Euro
peans and most of the notables were killed
While the attack was in progress the male
inhabitants of the city joined the insurgents
Abdul Kerim states that no women or chill
dren were killed, and that all who submitted
TO the invaders and surrendered their val.
uables were permitted TO depart I'M
harmed. 1t was reported that FL Mahdi
ordered Farag to be hanged, and that the
Prophets soldiers plundered Khartoum, kill
ing all the Greeks in the arsenal and liberat-
ing all the prisoners except the Greek Consul
Nicolai and doctor, Abdul Kerim says that
FL Mahdi has Al, 600 good fighting men, Who
however, no thinks, have been somewhat
scared at the results of the battles at Abu
Klea, Gubat, and Kabbabish.

DEATH ON THE RAIL.
Trainmen Killed by a Collision
Between Two Trains.
Many Cars Burned and Much Mail
Matter Destroyed,

A south-bound freight train and the Mid
land Express from the South with Northern
passengers came in collision the other night
ON single track in the culvert at Four
Mile Run, midway between Washington and
Alexandria
The engineer of the freight train, the con-
ductor of the passenger train, brakemam
and two iremen were instantly killed, and
seven men--the engineer of the passenger
Train, an express messenger, a brakeman and
four men at work in the postal car-were in
Jured. None of the passengers were serious
ly injured, though several werre badly
shaken up and received slight bruises
The baggage postal and smoking cars of the
passenger train caught fire and were totally
destroyed. The flames were fed by petroleum
from two oil cars in the freight train Thirty
three cars were burned, including the bag
gage and mail cars
The collision occurred at a point on the
line of the Baltimore and Potomac railroad
about four miles south, where the Chesl-
peake and Ohio canal crosses the track by q
viaduct The road at this point forms a curve
with pretty steep embankment on the
inner side and n hill on the outer side The
passenger train which was coming north
was passing under the arch of the
viaduct and met the freight train
curve is such at this point that neither en-
gineer could have seen the light of the others
train until the engines We're within ten yards
of each other The engines came together
with such a shock that heavy pieces of iron
from both were thrown twenty or thirty feet
up the side of the hill Both rolled over on
the inner side of the curve and the mail-car
OF the passenger train was telescoped on the
tender of the engine in front of it. None of
the other cars left the track
The engineer of the passenger train had
both legs and one arm cut off and died before
he was taken from the wreck The conduc-
tor was crushed between two of the cars and
the engineer of the freight and iiremen of
both trains were evidently killed when the
bodies Were dragged out of the burned wreck
of the engine some hours after the collision
Postal officials say that the collision caused
the largest loss of mail matter of which there
is any record in the department. The fire
which resulted from the collision destroyed
thirteen through registered mail pouches
coming from New Orleans Mobile and
other points in the South, and destined
for Washington, New York and East
crn cities. These pouches are known to
have contained money and valuables, but to
what amount cannot yet be asccrtained. The
fire also destroyed $50 sacks of ordinary mail
matter. heavy miscellaneous mail and $50
registered letters taken up for delivery along
the line and not enclosed in pouches. The
ordinary mail lost is supposed to have come
from Louisiana, Texas, Mississippi, Alabama,
parts of Georgia and South Carolina and
points in Virginia
