The suspects on trial for the murder of DIR.
Cronin are working on the principle so elo-
quently advocated by the senior Weller, of
proving an alibi. This is, of course the most
complete defense any man can make to
charge of crime, if he can put his case beyond
question and the charge is merely one of direct
participation. 1t is, also, the most difficult to
sustain II there's any crookedness about the
testimony, and sometimes even where there is
not Indeed, it is often harder for man
actually innocent in deed and thought to make
out an alibi than for a guilty man well coached
by shrewd criminal lawyer. A crime is COM
mitted; for example, somewhere between sun
set and sunrise on a certain night. An in
nocent man is arrested on suspicion. If he
were actually thousand miles away from the
scene Of the crime during the night on which
ii occurred, he could doubtless bring proof of
the fact, but if he were in the same town, how
many honest witnesses could he bring to prove
his whereabouts at every hour or half-hour OF
the night? They could swear where they be-
leved he was-in their company during the
evening, and afterward In his bed and asleep.
But how many would be willing to risk perjury
by swearing that they knew that he had not
left his bed while everybody else was asleep.
and stolen out, done the bad deed or assisted at
it, and crept back to his bed again? This IA
miliar illustration shows how uncertain an alibi
must be at best, under fire from a shrewd
cross-examiner; and why it il rarely resorted
to, except in the clearest cases. unless the
prosecution has made so sire G. presentation
that the defense must resort to desperate ex-
tremities.

such proposal without new legislation, but,

The determination Of the Commissioners to
exercise their discretion in regard to the grant
ing of liquor licenses in such manner as to weed
out the most Objectionable of the saloons with
which some sections Of the city are too album
dainty supplied will receive public indorse-
ment. Neither in Washington nor in any other
largo American city today will prohibition
law be enforced. and that is consequently not
the best practical law for such communities
But it is possible under tho existing law and
through the action Of the Commissioners to
regulate more carefully the places in which and
the persons by whom saloons may be kept. II
is also possible to enforce the law more vigor-
ously, and by amendment to render the regula-
ton which it provides more stringent. Move
ments in these directions promise practical re-
suits.

Capt Lusk in his annual report suggests the
employment OF men or boys to collect from the
carriageways all dirt or filth dropped during
the day and deposit the same in receptacles
provided for the purpose. This is proposed in
addition to the use Of sweepers at night Our
present methods of street cleaning are clearly
inadequate. The streets are not clean but
dirty. The attention Of the authorities is
wisely directed towards the improvement Of
these methods and towards the discovery of a
street-cleaning system which will cloan the

casualty could not have occurred. The only
thing left, 1t seems, if railroad influence is too
powerful for the state legislatures to resist. is
for Congress to enact a law banishing the coal

The suggestion ''that the United States shall
assume the entire cost of increasing the water
supply" considered in Capt. Lusk's annual re-
port is, as he states, favored by a strong pub
lie sentiment. The people of Washington are
even more unanimously and emphatically of
the opinion that the United States should as
sumo the entire cost Of the attempt to increase
the water supply which failed. There is no
reason whatever for requiring the capital to
pay a million dollars on the cost of the aban-
doned tunnel. The city did not request any
such work at its expense; it did not incur re-
sponsibility by having any share whatsoever in
the construction of tie tunnel No fault OF its
own or of any Of its agents caused the work to
become failure, and it has not pro6ted to the
extent of penny by the construction. 1t is
held under no contract, express or implied,
under no obligation. either legal or moral. The
nation undertook the work of its own ac-
cord, conducted it without any partici-
patton in responsibility on the part
Of the city, and through its own
direct agents wasted the money with which 1t
was intended to increase the water supply. 1t
has the power to collect the expense of its
blunders from the defenseiess taxpayers of the
District, but the exercise Of this power in the
present case partakes of the nature of high
way robbery. When Congress has relieved the
District of heavy debt which it has not agreed
to pay, for which il has received not the slight
est consideration, and which represents simply
the loss from the negligence or misconduct of
the governments agents, citizens may attempt
to secure with some hope of success better
and fairer apportionment Of the expense of
supplying the city with water. But if the Dis
trict is compelled by the government to pay a
million dollars for nothing it can hardly hope
to secure water or mud and water at less
price.
