THE BILLS WHICH FAILED Al ALBANY.

THE BILLS WHICH FAILED Al Albany
The list of bills which remained in the Gov
ernor's hands at the adjournment of the Legs
lature was a long one. Now that they have
all been disposed of it appears that he killed
115 of them and signed 255. OF the bills
which failed 10 related to this city, and IL
to Brooklyn and Kings County, while the rest
were general in their provisions or anected
interests in other portions of the State. Ref-
erence has already been made to the chle1 OF
these defunct measures, in which the me-
tronoIis is especially interested. Most OF the
Rrooklyn bills are comparatively unimportant,
and the same remark will apply TO nearly all
the rest. 1t is safe to conjecture that large
number of them will be revived at the next
session. Under the administration OF some
Governors this would be sheer folly-the bills
would be sure to encounter another veto. But
il is known that David b. Hill plays fast and
loose with legislation. large number OF the
approprations which he ran his pen through
in 1889 he approved this year. Hence those
who went to Albany last winter only to be
disappointed may well feel encouraged 10 try
try again.
In an article on "the legislative burden OF
the Governor" his faithful mouthpiece The
Albany Tines endeavors to work up some
sympathy for him at the expense OF the Legs
lature 1t would seem to hold that the Legs
lature ought to remain in session until the
Governor has passed upon all the measures
which are sent to him, characterzlng their
refusal to do so IN abdication OF " the means
and opportunity to overrule his action" 10
this it may be replied first, that the Legs
lature took care not to adjourn until all the
measures in which the people were most IN
terested had been acted upon by the Gov
ernor: and second, that practically there was
no means or opportunity to overrule his
action, since the majority was not strong
enough in either house to override veto. IL
takes two-thrd vote to override veto, while
the Republicans of the Senate number 10 IN
a total of so and the Republicans of the AS
sembly ~ in a total of 12S. There would
seem to be no objection to giving the Gov-
ernor more than thirty days to act upon the
hills remaining in his hands when the Legis-
lature adjourns. 1t may readily happen that
he cannot do justice to all of them within that
comparatively brief time. An amendment to
the Constitution providing for reasonable
extension of the limit would doubtless meet
with no opposition.

THE LATEST AFRICAN PLAM

A circumstantial forecast of the probable
settlement of British and German claims in
East Africa is published in "The ST. James's
Gazetten 1t is not, Of course, an official an
nouncement, and may be founded on nothing
better than conjecture. But it commands at
tention by virtue of the intimate relations
which. since the retirement of Mr.. Greenwood
from the editorship of that paper have been
supposed to exist between "The st. James
Gazette" and some official personages in Ger
many. The proprietor of the paper, Mr.. Stein
kopf. is a German and he some time ago an
nounced that "The st. James's Gazette was
to be henceforth sort of English exponent of
the German official mind 1t is by no means
unreasonable, therefore, to regard this article
on the pending negotiations between England
and Germany as in some measure inspired by
authority at Berlin.
The plan of settlement as set forth Is sub
stantially as follows: Germany is to surrender
With and the adjacent territory to England,
thus giving England sole possession of all the
coast as far south as little beyond Alombasa,
say to degrees south latitude. Thence south
ward to Mozambique the Zanzibar Coast will
be exclusively under German influence. In
land the boundary line between the English
and German territories, beginning at the coast
in latitude south 8 degrees, will run northwest
until it strikes the eastern shore of Victoria
Lake in latitude south 1 degree, say at Kavi-
rando, thence on that parallel across the lake,
across the Kitwara Mountains, across Albert
Edward Lake, TO the Congo State. This would
give to England the noble peak of Kenia and
TO Germany that of Kilima Marc. 1t would
divide Victoria Lake equally. 1t would give
the Kingdom of Uganda to England, and also,
presumptively, the province formerly ruled by
Emin Pacha, though this is not specified.
England is also to have a right OF way from
Victoria Lake southwest to Lake Tanganyika,

cordial praise to the Administration OF Presi-
dent Harrison, and takes pardonable prlde IN
the work done in the House of representatives
under the skilfu and courageous leadership
of Speaker Reed. The plank which lndorses
the policy of protection. urges liberal appro-
priations for pensions, opposes the Importation

our commerce is capital epitome OF Repub-
lican principles.
District Attorney Fellows faced the music
Yesterday and blandly confessed his inability
70 convict either John Keenan, or ex-Alderman
Savles both of whom have been sojourning In
Canada for some four years on account OF the
indictments hanging over them. They must
have been astonished to learn that they might
have come back at any time during these years
without danger. Colonel Fellows's uncon-
ditional surrender will not awaken surprise
among those who have observed the DRIFT OF
things ever since he became strict-Attorney.
The wonder is, rather, that Keenan, allowed
his alleged "important business transactions
TO detain him so long on the further side of the
ST Lawrence. The campaign against the
boodlers was to all intents and purposes aban-
doned when Colonel Fellows was elected. How
characteristic it is for him to assert now that
if a certain two of the gang were within reach
he would straightway proceed to convict them.
He aludes to De Lacy and Moloney, VINO sui
lnger outside the jurisdiction. But for the
birds in the hand the complacent Colonel has
no use, save to let them 60 free.

Following in our wake, the British Government

The responsibility for the volcano which
was in an active state of eruption at Broadway
and Fulton-st. all day yesterday cannot yet
be precisely fixed; but good share OF it plain
" belongs to the gas companies, whose pipes
are VIGOROUSLY old and rotten, and permit vast
quantities of gas to escape into the earth. The
Steam Heating Company cannot escape from
its share of responsibility, for it appears to
have been the carelessness of its workmen that
ignited the escaping gas. If the explosion had
occurred at this busy corner at any hour dur
ing daylight, loss of life would almost certainly
have occurred. That there is not sufficient
control over subterranean New-York is clearly
demonstrated by this occurrence and the pos
sibilities it suggests.
