The need Of additional freight facilities wal

The need Of additional freight facilities was
clearly demonstrated by the Pennsylvania rail.
road yesterday in its argument in support of
the Atkinson bill in the hearing before the
House District committee. Nobody denies the
existence of this need, and the plan proposed
by the board Of trade gives the road power to
condemn property aud lay side tracks and pro-
vides it with ample freight facilities east of
Third street west, where the main tracks would
remain at grade even If the project of a
depression Of the tracks farther west
ward were carried out. The board of
trades proposal gives the railroad all
the necessary freight tracks at grade
and provides for sinking of the main passenger
line only for portion Of its course through the
road has been improbable ard cannot afford
TO make the improvements which the capital
requests is laughable. The road Is an important
link in the great Pennsylvania system, giving
TO the latter southern connections and access to
the capital OF the republic. The money which
has been spent upon the road has not been ex-
pended IN this city where it has free station site
aud free right of way at grade over the public
streets. but in tunneiing in Baltimore and in
other WAYS. Washington wants the same con-
sideration shown to it that has been shown to
baltimore and Philadelphia. Whatever the
Pennsylvania systems of book keeping may
show as to the financial standing of its Balti-
more and Potomac branch, Washington cannot
be an Improbable city. since here the road ex-

The prime cause of all this malfeasance in
Office, so far as it has a public aspect, is the
loose system Of accounts and supervision that
prevails in most of the states. One would have
thought that Maryland would have had not
only law to punish such crimes as Treasurer
Archer's, but a system which would almost in
fallibly have prevented it. During his three
terms of office, it appears, no examination was
ever made Of the business Of his ofice-the
most important in the whole state Certainly
now. warned by the repeated defalcations, en-
bezzleInents, hypothecations and other forms
OF swindling and abuse of trust, the laws of the
various states Of the Union will be made more
stringent and the public scrutiny of the char
acter Of its employees closer than it has been in
the past The STAR would not undermine con-
fdence, but it would not have snares laid to
entrap the weak. Men are sometimes made
actively dishonest by imposing too much con-
fidence in their integrity.

The greatest food ever known in the Mi ssis-
sippi Valley proper was predicted at several
signal service offices three days ago, and the
terrific storms Of wind and rain and snow which
have been distributed throughout the entire
section from the Rockies to the Alleghenies
would appear to be IN the line of fulilment OF
the predictions 1t is calculated that while in
the upper river. that is from Memphis north
TIE floods will be immediate and less destruc-
tive, IL will take at least three weeks for the
fuI tide to sweep in upon the lands in the
region of the sugar belt and above. and II will
take longer for it to move off and leave the
lands clear for cultivation again. This will
place 1t far along in the spring, almost summer
IN that latitude, and the prospect for crops of
any kind IL to say the least not favorable. Add
10 this the unhealthful conditions arising from
water soaked soil, the warm weather of the
past winter, the yellow fever premonitions
already showing in South America and West
Indian ports, and the outlook for a cheerful
southern summer Is not fattering Fore
warned Is fOrearmed however. and the south
has ample time to prepare for emergencies,
which after all may never come to pass, and the
preparations will be so much added to general
improvement.

FATHER GAVIN'S FUNERAL.
An Impressive Service at the Ca
thedral.


thedral.
The funeral of Rev. Father Peter
Gavin took place yesterday morning at
the cathedral, which was filled with the
friends and parishioners of deceased.
Bishop Mora, assisted by Bishop O'Con-
nell and Vicar-General Rev. j. Adam,
celebrated solemn high mass, and the
following clergymen were present in the
sanctuary; Rev. Father Myer and Rev
Father Lundry, of st. Vincent's; Rev.
Father Curran, of San Juan; Rev.
Father Fisher, of Pomona; Rev. Father
Howe, of Santa Monica; Hev. Father
Reilly, of the Mission church; Rev.
Father Scanlan, of San Gabriel; Rev.
Father Cullen, of Pasadena Rev. Father
Fonquery, of San Pedro, and Rev.
Father Mcdonald, Rev. Father Smith
and Rev. Father Farley, of the Cathe-
dral. The ceremonies were very i'm
pressive. The deceased came here
about eighteen months ago from Can
ada. He was suffering from consump-
ton, and removed to Southern California
for his health. He improved rapidly,
and in six months his physical condi-
ton was such as to admit of his resum-
ing his duties. He was about we'll and
resumed his duties at the Cathedral. In
an unfortunate moment few weeks
ago Father Gavin took Hammam bath
without consulting his physician. He
had a cold at the time and pneumonia
set in, from which he died.
