IT SEEMS to be the general impression
among seamen that the loss Of our war
vessels at Samoa was due to the fact that
they were short of coal. The British
vessel Calliope was enabled to go outside
of Apia harbor and ride out the hurri-
cane because she had a good stock
of coal on board. The question now
arises, why were our ships without an
ample supply? A dispatch from San
Francisco says that a prominent coal
firm in that city had sent an offer to
Washington early in the season to supply
the fleet at Apia with coal at the rate of
ten dollars ton. The Equipment Bureau,
however, promptly pigeon-holed this
offer, and closed a contract with a
Philadelphia house for a shipload of
Pennsylvania coal to be laid down at
Apia. That coal is on its way to Samoa,
and will reach there during the summer.
Red tape and circumlocution could
scarcely be more glaringly illustrated
than in this coal business, nor could
the consequences we'll be more disastrous
than they have been. Why should coal
be shipped from Philadelphia to Samoa,
fifteen thousand miles, around the Horn,
when it can be had as cheap as in Penn
sylvania at Australian ports, only about
three thousand miles from Apia?

A High COmpliment to the Citizens
of Los Angeles.

There has recently been quite dis
cussion going on in the Nashville, Tenn,
papers as to the best short poem in the
English language. One of the writers
on the subject, alter quoting short poems
from Ben Jonson, Burns, Tennyson,
Leigh Hunt, Wordsworth and others,
concludes his article as follows:
And now, if you will give space for
"only one MORE" 1 should like to have
you print what l consider the finest short
poem in the language. Very few, take
it., will agree with meas l intimated
above, the majority is usually wrong
but "chacun a son gout." give neither
the title nor the authors name, for am
curious to see If any of your readers will
recognize it. The writer is dead and
gone, poor fellow, and his little volume
of verses is no more to be found on the
booksellers shelves-but, for all that,
the South has produced no truer poet.
This is what regard as "the finest short
poem" in English:
I have friend-a luminous friend
The soul Of the poppies rich and red,
That walks the pathways of my heart
Like an angel amOug the dead
And down, far down TO the bottom goes,
Till he comes to the hope that is buried there,
Waveth his magical hands, and lol
blessing upstarts from a great despairl
Then whyishould die with such a friend
To work his miracles when will
To speak to me like Christ to the waves,
And quiet my heart with his "Peacc, be still"
Mo- twine sweet flowers around my brow,
And give me the wondrous drug to drink
That makes it melody ouly to live,
And perfect poem to think.
If that is not poetry, what is it?
SEPT.
We are glad to state that the author of
the above. quoted poem, Henry Lynden
Flash, is net dead, although in the city
of the ANGELS, but that he is alive, and
a highly esteemed citizen of Los Angeles.

were not included in these informations
the Chinese deponents said not. The
merchants in question claimed that they
we're influenced in their action by the
fact that the practice of gambling was de-
moralizing, that they we're large credi-
tor class and were prevented from col
lecting their debts by the circumstance
that their debtors squandered their
money. This looks all very pretty and
moral on its face, but it has a great SAVIOR
of the Danai dona ferentes-the Greeks
bearing gifts-of the Virgilian narrative.
The immediate inquiry with those at all
acquainted with the ways OF the astute
Celestial will be, whats up?" This
is such radical departure from their
usual ways that those who know the
wary Mongolian will distrust appear
ances, and peer curiously around to dis
cover the Ethiopian in the woodpile.

A Graceful Tribute to His Memory

Graceful Tribute to His Memory
from tsOId rCcumseh.o
ALBANY, N. Y, April 9.-Memorial
exercises were held by the Legislature
for the late General Philip H. Sheridan,
at the Academy of Music tonight. Gem
eral Martin D. McMahon presided.
Bishop McNiery opened the exercises
with prayer, and then followed an ad-
dress by General Wagner Swayne, the
orator of the evening. At the conclu-
sion of General Swayne's address there
were calls for General Sherman, who
rose to respond. General Curtis
introduced him with the remark:
"The greatest living General of
the world stands before you"
General Sherman spoke, following his
associations with General Sheridan, say
ing that only few Of his comrades were
lett to mourn him. He then referred to
his early acquaintance with Grant and
Sheridan, and spoke of the cause for
which all three fought. He declared
that no stronger or better American ever
lived than Sheridan, and said his name
would always be coupled with those of
Washington and Grant. General Alger
also made few graceful remarks.

THE New York World, in late issue,
covered a portion of its space with pithy
paragraphs from the outgivings of
Thomas Jefferson, the founder of De-
mocraey, and a man always sagacious
and sometimes wise beyond his day and
generation. In one of these Mr.. Jeffer-
son says that he would rather have
newspapers without a government than
a government without newspapers. There
has never been a greater compliment to
the splendid public Office of the press
than is conveyed in that pregnant sen-
tence. What the trade winds are to the
torpid ocean, is a spirited and undaunted
press to a nation. The functions OF a
daily journal are often abused, but few
people stop to consider how, without
them, abuse and corruption would run
riot and the liberties of the masses be
sacrificed,

IT would really seem, from his later
career, that the mighty and robustious
Boulanger is compound Of the Bonn.
bastes of one dramstist, and the Boba-
dill of another. A week or SO ago he was
heard OF as iainting in Paris cafe, and
the next thing reported of him he had
sought refuge in Belgium. A couple of
years ago he issued a challenge to
Monsieur Ferry, ana in the cartel
he stipulated that the duel should
be to the death. AS posi-
bly, Boulanger expected would be
the case, Monsieur Ferry, who doubtless
looked upon Boulanger as a terrible
creature, "half hoss and half alligator, !"
declined the ferocious proposition, as he
had perfect right to do under the code.
In all likelihood he would have accepted
an invitation to the usually innocuous
French duel, go graphically described by
Marx Twain, but to be asked to have
his mutton cooked outright was little
too much for the gizzard of the peace
ful French lawyer, who knew the differ
ence between a harmless pastime and
real miching malicho. Emboldened by
his success in driving Ferry from the
field OF honor, in an ill-advised moment
the puissaiut Boulanger challenged
Premier Floquet to the deadly lists
FloQuet was an ex.journalist nearly
seventy years of age. He promptly
accepted the challenge; and, tc
the surprise of every one, al.
most killed Boulanger. For a man
who is to lead the embattled
hosts of France across the Rhine to the
recovery of Alsace and Lorraine, Bou.
LANCER scarcely seems to be the cheese,
His fainting spells, and his flights from a
government which probably only gained
courage to prosecute him when it heard
OF his disappearance, indicate rather the
milksop than the hero. Far different
was the course of the frat Napoleon when
the Directory of France had marked
him out for destruction. He boldly
demanded hearing, asked to
be confronted with his accusers.
and saw his enemies quail. He wac
every inch the soldier and Che leader,
and his indomita ble spirit under Difficult
ties preGgured his masterful destiny.

A Precarious state of Finances

A PrecariOus state of Finances.
The HERALD yesterday drew attention
to the precarious condition of the city's
finances, and showed that there will be,
under the most favorable circumstances.
very formidable deficit at the end of the
six months just entered upon. The arti-
Gle was the subject OF considerable COM
ment yesterday, and but few, even of the
best posted people, had the slightest idea
that we would soon be meeting our cur
rent municipal expenses with warrants
drawn upon collapsed funds. This state
of affairs will, of course, result in
loss to persons in the regular employ
of the city under fixed salaries, and
In q loss to the city in the purchase OF
supplies, which will be marked up in
price by the merchants so as to cover the
discounts that will obtain upon city
warrants. The money now in the Cash
fund and available is about $35,000 No
new money can reach that fund until
the 1st of October next, six months.
The average monthly expenditure
from that fund during the correspond
ing six months last year was Sio 81 ,vvu, 80
that Il will be exhausted in less than two
months, for the expenses this year are
greater than last. The amount in the
Salary fund and available from licences,
etc., is $4,000, The rate Of exhaustion
oil this fund last year was $4,000
Per month. But the Fire Department
fund is practically collapsed, and must
be replenished, if at all, from the Salary
fund. This would increase the
draft on the Salary fund to $1,000
per month, providing the Fire De-
partment can be run as cheaply this
year as last, which is not at all likely.
But let us assume the above figures as
representing ell the money that will be
called for, and the Salary fund will last
Just about three months and half.
But at the rate the new Council has
been increasing salaries, creating new
Offices and multiplying expenditures, the
city will be financially on the rocks in
less than two months. We can see no
escape from this. The machinery OF
the new Charter has greatly increased
the number of salaried officers and added
expenses in all directions; yet we are
compelled to fill out the year with the
estimates made under the old Charter.
Not only this, but the rate of taxation
was manifestly too low to even meet the
actual expenses under the old Charter,
and SO we will find ourselves doubly
handicapped in our financial situation.
We would commend to the City
Council a careful examination into the
condition of the cty's finances, and the
devising of ways and means to stave of
the difficulties that will necessarily arise
in trying to carry on the government on
an empty treasury.

1t Comes on for Another Act Before
Justice Lockwood,


Justice lockwood,
The examination Of Rose and Hood,
the bunco men, which has been contin-
ued for several days, began again before
Justice Lockwood last evening at 7
o'clock. This is the examination on the
charge of fraudulently winning at play.
The defendants have already been held
to answer on the charge of conspiring to
defraud, which is a misdemeanor. This
new charge is felony.
After an unsuccessful effort by MIR.
Payton, the attorney for the defense, to
secure another COL tinuance, Judge Has.
kins was placed upon the stand and his
testimony taken. He retold the story OF
his meeting with Hood, who called him
self "James." his interview with Rose,
the play in the room at the Crystal Palace
and the loss of the money. The evidence
was not taken without great deal OF OBJ
lection on various legal grounds and
much discussion.
After session of about an hour the
court adjourned, to continue the case this
morning at 8 o'clock.

The Commissioners appointed by Gov
ernor Waterman to select site for the
State Reform School for Los Angeles
county will leave this city to-day for San
Francisco, where they will arrive at their
decision Friday night. They have the
refusal of great variety of very advan-
tageous locations, including number in
the vicinity of Santa Monica, Pomona,
Los Feliz, Crescenta Canada, and almost
score of other places. The offers of
sites, embracing from forty to one hum
dred and sixty acres, have come from
many portions of the county. 1t is pre-
sumed that the Commissioners will be
influenced in their decision by the salu-
brity of the climate, the accessibility
and kindred obvious considerations.
The health and the cost of trans-
porting the inmates will doubtless be
leading considerations, water and soil
and extent Of acreage being equal. The
scramble for the institution has been a
lively one. Crescenta Canada, as an in
ducement to locate the school in that
salubrious valley, has procured an agree
ment from the President OF the Glendale
Motor road to extend their track to that
place if the school should be located
there, subvention of land and money
being exacted by the company in addi-
ton. The appropriation for tbe building
is $200,0 and the Commissioners avow
it to be their intention to have the build
ings completed and ready for occupancy
within eighteen months.
