THE BERLIN CONFERENCE.

The Berlin Conference opens to-day under
favorable auspices for pacific settlement OF
the Samoan dispute. The German Government
has made concessions in its official dispatches
and instructions to Consu-General Stuebel
which have removed the chief obstacles in the
way of diplomatic negotiation. The American
Commissioners have been cordially received in
Berlin. and Mr. Bates has taken advantage of
an early opportunity to explain the publication
of his article in "The Century" and to disclaim
any feeling of hostility or iIl-will to Germany.
The appointment of Sir Edward Malet as the
chief representative of Great Britain tends to
promote the chances Of a satisfactory ADJUST
ment Of the controversy. While he is on eX-
cellent terms with the Chancell, ? he is an Eng
lish diplomatist Of pronounced views and pa
triotic impulses. II he acts on the assumption
that Samoa lies within the circ:a of Australian
interests and that England is under obligations
to its own colonies to secure international
guarantees fO3 the maintenance of the neu-
trality and autonomy of the islands, he will
inevitably cooperate with the American Com
missioners. The impending collapse Of Tama-
sese's fortunes involves the necessity Of an

immediate reorganization OF the na'i'e Wv
eminent. Tho German Chancellor percelVS
the expediency of effecting change Oh r'herS
.,.;th tho sanction of the Conference. If the
camoan population had not revolted against the
runnet King and left him dependent upon the
German Consulate and naval forces, the diplo-
r,,,;c consultations at Berlin would be doomed
70 failure. As it is, there is bright prospect
for conciliatory negotiation and n satisfactory
settlement of all questions at issue.
The election of IA new King by the natives,
acting independently of foreign advice and IN
f,uence, and the negotiation of convention
pledgng the three Powers to respect and main
tain the neutrality and autonomy of Samoa,
would satisfy every just claim which the United
States Government can present to the Con-
ference. On the German side demands'for in
demnity, based upon the military action OF
Klein the American. who led the natives
in a successful assault upon the marines, are
said to have been already withdrawn. But
some form of reparaton will be required for the
losses of German traders and planters caused by
the revolt against Tamasese and his foreign
sunno,ters: and it is intimated that the Chan
cellor will ask for an indemnity in additional
land concessions, 10 Do iNS "'"'N" ~ -" 49,
national court or commission 1t has been the
German policy from the first appearance OF
their traders in the South Seas to obtain land
bv every possible means; and it will be natural
for the Government to present demand for
the creation of an international court for ad-
indicating these indemnity claims. large
share of the land in the Samoan group Is now
owned nomnally by German settlers and trad
ers. And this fact has been made the central
argument for their Governments exclusive con-
troll of the local administration. 1t IS TO be en-
pected that indemnity for losses or indignities
suffered by German residents will take the
form of excessive demands for terrhory. Com
missioner Bates happily is singularly we'll
informed respecting this branch OF the con-
troversy and will be prepared to suggest some
effective compromise.
It will be fortunate if the Conference results
in the negotiation of a treaty committing the
three Powers to joint recognition OF the In
dependence and neutrality of the islands. what
rights the United States now holds in samoa
are grounded upon treaty which can be abro~
gated at the pleasure or caprice OF any sovereign
who may be elected by the native councils and
subsequently brought under foreign influence.
II the three Powers unite in exchanging guaian-
tees for the maintenance Of the neutrality OF
Samoa the controversy will he brought to an
end without probability Of being revived IN an
aggravated form in the course OF few years.

LEGISLATION FOR THE INSANE.

A few papers in the interior Of the State are
endeavoring to defeat the bill which provides
for the transfer of the pauper insane from
county almshouses to the State asylums. They
contend that in some OF the counties the insane
are as well taken care Of in all essential respects
in the local institutions as they could possibly
be in the State asylums. 1t is admitted that
in few of the counties the provision for tho
insane is worthy OF high commentator. But
the fact remains that save in rare instances
State care has been and is better than county
care. Those who have thoroughly investigated
the insane problem almost without al exception
have cmphatically pronounced in favor Of State
care. They argue that it is far better for the
patients, and in the long run will prove more
economical. 1t needs no argument to show
that the county institutions cannot as a rule be
so well equipped with physicians who arc spe-
cialists and with skilled attendants as tho State
institutions.
The bin in question grows in favor every

The dreadful accident on the Grand Trunk
Railway casts shadow upon the festivities of
the week. The passengers on the wrecked
train were almost all on their way to New-Yor
to witness the celebration In crossing
switch near Hamilton the train left the track
several of the cars were piled together and
took fire immediately. Nearly score of bod
les have been taken from the wreck, eighteen
of them burned beyond recognition, and tho
number of injured is large. A striking feature
of the accident is the rapidity with which the
flames, which appear to have been started from
the engine, on which some Of the cars were
thrown, spread through the train. Most of
those who lost their lives were roasted to death
before more than beginning in the work of
rescuing them could be made No one will be
80 much absorbed in the pleasures of the holi-
day as not to feel and express deep sympathy
with the families of those bereaved by this hor-
rble disaster.
