There is no longer doubt az to who is master
in Hayti. General Hippolyte, withou. resort
ing to any Of the barbaroui devices he was ac-
cused of meditating. has forced his adversary
to surrender and evacuate the capital. This
does not necessarily bring peace at once to the
distracted island; for the character of the coun-
try and its inhabitants makes it probable that
there will be more or less desultory fighting for
a while STILL between strolling marauders from
one or the other army and the owners of at
traetive plantations in the interior. The open
and general hostilities, however, are at an end:
there Will soon be a single government that
other nations can recognize with self-respeet:
and diplomatic and legitimate business rela-
tons will be restored all around The news
Of Legitime's fall must have dealt severe blow
to the hopes of France, which had been count
ing on obtaining, through its favorite's su-
premacy, hold upon the island much stronger
than that Of any other power. AS far as her
interests are antagonistic to our own-and they
may prove such, before long, in connection
with the work to be done on the Panama canal
the triumph of HippOiyte is a cause for con-
graduation TO US. To all the world, indeed. it
ought to be matter of re joiciDg that bloody
and useless war has been brought to an end
and with as little loss as possible TO the BUSH
ness Of the country and to the comfort of the
foreign residents.

The season Of bursting dams is not over.
That which henmed IN the Spring Lake reser-
voir at Cranston, near Providence, r. l., with
its thHty-fve million gallons of water, gave
way yesterday, and the torrent carried off a few
bridges. wrecked building or two, and killed
three persons. For its escape from greater
injury, the surrounding country has to
thank the fact that its population was
sparse. A local engineer built the dam,
and it is believed that the weakness of
the structure was due to spring underneath
it, which was not choked with sufficient care.
The fact that such a cause can be assigned, and
so soon after the accident. suggests the posi-
bility Of the builders having felt some uncer-
tainty of the strength Of the dam before now
In every case Of bursting dams this summer
there has been some such coincident discovery.
The builders of that horrible death-trap at
JOhnstown were conscious of its shortcomings;
and if, warned by the uncommon amount of
rain which had fallen for a month back, they
had urged the opening of discharge gates and
the lowering Of the waters in the lake, the
catastrophe which appalled, the world might
have been averted. In yesterdays case there
was even less excuse for the builder, if he was
aware Of any weakness in his work; for there
had been a succession Of casualties to press
upon his notice the danger of dallying with I'M
Certainty.

Today the trial of the Irish suspects, accused
Of completely in the murder of DIR. Cronin,
begins in Chicago. So long a period has
elapsed since the murder, and the police have
spent so much time and money in collecting
evidence, that it will be grievous disappoint-
ment to the public If the prosecution have not
something pretty startling to bring forth when
they get their witnesses upon the stand. Great
difficulty may be expected in getting Jury to-
gether who will fulfill the triple requirement of
intelligence, impartiality and comparative
ignorance Of the facts. On general principles,
OF course, intelligent Irish-American might
be expected to understand his own people, and
their modes of thought and action in a case
hike this, better than any one else: but it would
be almost If not quite impossible to find one
who had not strong prejudice in the matter.
The facts published in the newspapers have
been so widely read that few persons, what
ever their nationality, have failed to take some
notice Of them-probably enough to form an
opinion which il would be hard for the testi-
mony OF witnesses entirely to overset.

The ancient custom Of talking about the

ally broadened into a fad or hobby, so strong

Chicago has justified her claim to be model
city IN the matter Of energy, by the way she
has already forced most Of the overhead cleo
trio wires out of her streets and put them under
ground. and is pushing the good work to COM
pietion. She has now six thousand miles of
buried wire to experiment on. in a climate that
ought to make-the test conclusive both as to
the practicability of the reform and az to the
cost of maintaining it. Mr.. Barrett. the city
electrician. asserts that the underground wires
can be kept In repair at only one-dstieth of the
expense Of those overhead. This may be an
enthusiastic estimate; but it is a curious fact.
which has attracted the attention of investors
and spectators in Wall street, that, as the
Western Union wires have been driven under
ground, the eompany's stock has gone up, in
spite OF the howl that was raised at first about
Persecution and bankruptcy.

1t is gratifying to learn that, after all the ex-
perimenting and p1tShwork OF which the
streets of New YORK city have been made the
victims for so many years. the authorities have
finally settled down to the idea that asphalt is
the proper material for paving the roadways
in residence quarters. This decision is a
tribute to the shrewdness and progressiveness
OF Washington. for in this city the problem was
solved some time ago. II we could only force
upon Congress a sense of the wisdom of giving
our city the means to adopt the hundred i'm
proved devices for public convenience which
are recommended and locally favored, the
capital might hays the cities Of the whole coun-
try sitting at its feet to learn how a munich.
