The Killing Of Crnnin.

The killing of Cronin has an interest
above that of ordinary murders, because
there seems to be good reason for suspi-
ciOn that his death is Intimately con
nected with the great English political
question. Dr. Cronin gave no tempta-
ton to anyone 10 remove him save bv
his menacing attitude towards a faction
s"f an Irish Organization. He had
any friends and his only known
- eiiilcs were the men whom he had
threatened with punishment for appro-
priation OF funds intended for use in Ire
land. In some way he had come into DOS
session Of proofs of villainy ,or at least he
claimed to have done 50, and rs he
was man standing high in public
estimation there is no reason to doubt il
The stories that were industriously cir
Iculated to the effect that he was not
cad, but had done something wrong
nu ned from justice now appear to have
peen without foundation and NAV have
been part Of the conspiracy. The case
nas become Of national and even inter
national Importance and must be sifted
70 the bottom. II the great Irish agita-
taon IL controlled by AN organization
SnAt u cursed with a faction SO desperate

lrish IL well; and 50 is America for
5Anlericans, who are so by nativity or

bination Of Baltimore gas companies,
and he could not therefore recover.
A Maryland statute forbade the COM
penics from entering into any consolida-
tion, combination or contract with any
other gas company whatever; which
sounds very much like the Pennsyl-
yania law forbidding the combination Of
telegraph companies, and Attorney Gen
erai kirkpatrick can go on with his suit
against the Western Union in perfect
confidence that the United States s,i-
preme court will sustain him. 1t
seems from the letter Of the decision
that even without n statute II viii
I've held that combination Of companies
doing business of public character,
which combinations are evidently pre-
| judicial to the public interest, are tin-
lawful. This IL ancient law but II has
been uncertain whether modern infiu-
eBces would permit II to stand. In
practice II has not been the
law but now that Il has been
announced from the highest tribunal,
corporation managers doing business as
public servants will need to quickly
take fresh bearings lest they run aground.
Here is an extract from the opinion
fnnumcrable cases, however, might be
cited tn sustain the proposition that com
binations among those engaged in business
impressed with public or quasi public
character which are manifestly preiudicial
To the public interest cannot he upheld.
The law cannot recognize as valid any
undertaking to do what fundamental doc
trine or legal rule directly forbids. Noi

! "TnE skins from foxes shoulders pioce,l
! together VIII make coat" This il the
literal translation of n line in the appeal oi
the 1ao-tai of Shanghai for help for his
starving people. He says that the smallest
sums will accumulate 10 a large amount,
which may save the lives OF millions As
an American missionary, John l.. Ncvius,
OK plains that one or two tonts ,lay will
keep people alive in Chinn,it may he hoped
that no lives will bo lost for the want OF
such meagre charity. The Chinese gov
ernmcnt has turned over its regular grain
tribute for the benefit of the dis
tressed, bat human life is of such
very small account in that part of the world
that il many are to he saved it must he
chiefly through the pity of the Western
nations The trouble is apparently all due
to nature. The yellow river has been hard
at work wandering over the country and
tearing things up as II has done many
times before. In less than two thousand
five hundred years il has changed its course
ten times and the enormous loss Of life and
property occasioncd by the bursting of its
banks year or more ago has never been
fully realized by people outside of China.
Aner this calamity the rainy season was
distinguished by alarming phenomena.
The great rain fell in torrents within an
area whore IL was not needed and great
tracts of country We're left without any.
In the province Of Shanlung the streams
burst their banks, and uniting their waters
ina common flood which covered the plains
To depth of from two TO ten feet, swept as
one unhroken river to the sea-.
When winter came upon them the miSer-
able people were living upon a little shriy-
elled, half developed grain, mixed with the

inhabitants had left their homes in Janu-

supply of provisions with the members of
their families who are aged or infirm. hon
lng themselves Ia return in time To plant
the spring crops They usually take with
them the farm wheclharrow, which is
loaded with bedding and clothing, a few
dishes and cooking utensils, and the little
children, the men drawing and balancing
the harrows and the women aud larger
children following behind. Those fleeing
irom the drought region ON the south meet
those from the flooded region on the north

To 60 farther. There are ~ many of them
aud the supply of food in the most favored
sections is SO scanty that IT is difficult to
support life by begging, and many return

To die"
'hlnamen have way of massncreing
our missionaries and developing general
cussednoss sufficient 10 make their exter-
mination pleasing thought; then they
get drowned and starved by the million as
though for the especial purpose of changing
our anger TO pity. In answer to the appeal
by cable in February, great sums were
raised in London and New York, and the
next news from China was of riot and at
tempted massacre of whites. Msgovern-
ment, ignorance and misfortune are bring
ing China to desperate straits.
