1t is believed in Washington that Mr.
Charles Emosy Smith, editor of the
Philadelphia Press and Minister to
Russia, has resigned his diplomatic post
and will shortly resume immediate con-
troll OF his great newspaper.
Something OF this sort has been under.
stood by the friends Of Mr. Smith, who
know his ionduess for newspaper work
and have not from the first supposed
that he would long be content TO rub up
against princes and that Gort Of thing in
a foreign land. There isn't half the pub.
lie service in it that there ia in conduct
ing we'll great newspaper, and that is
the sort OF newspaper the Philadelphia
Pres is.
Rumor also has 1t that ex-United
States Treasurer Huston Is to 60 to
Russia in place of Mr.. Smith. This by
way Of placRting the Republicans OF
Indiana, who are believed to bs some-
what estranged from their erstwhile
favorite son.

Mr.. George Westinghouse, Jr., Of Pitts
burgh, has been the hesd Of several cor
porations using the mechanical appli'
auces with which his name is associated
Among these companies was the Union
S sitch and Signal Company, which has
lust chosen for itself new head By
means which Mr.. Westinghouse de
nounces a. improper and illegal.
Mr.. A. II. Rowand has been the Score
tary Of the company from its organiza
ton, and Mr.. Westinghouse and hii
friends trusted him implicitly. So much
so that by Mr.. Westinghouse direc'
ton proxies were made out to "George
Westinghouse, Jr, or A. 7. Rowand,'
SO that they might be used by Mr.. Row
and in the Absence of Mr.. Westinghouse,
and IA Mr.. Westinghouse would use
them If he were present.
A change has come about in the man
agement Of the Union Switch and Signal
Company because Mr.. Rowand, in the
absence Of Mr.. Westinghouse, used the
proxies in the very way in which MIR
Westinghouse did not wish them used
The result ia that Mr.. Westinghouse
and his friends are out OF the directory
and Mr.. Rowand is now the President o
tho company.
The friends of Mr.. Westinghouse &C
Cuse Mr.. Rowand not only OF treschery
but of base ingratitude, for, they say
MI Westinghouse raised Mr.. Rowant
from poverty to comparative wealtt
and gave him standing in the businepl
world. An effort will be made through
the courts to declare the election null
and void.
At this distance it looks as though Mr.
Rowland had seized the opportunity t.
betray the confidence Of Mr.. Westing
house and those in the company Wit
furnished the proxies. The illegality o
the election by this moral misuse o
proxies is not so evident, although it il
not impossible that q court will look e
the intent OF the stockholders who's
proxies were used contrary to their ex
pectation and desire.
Whatever may be the outcome, if Mr.
Rowand has any conscience it will keel
him awake of nights. Fortunately suct
a betrayal of confidence is rare in bust
negs life.

Ths BerlnE Sea trouble.

Except in the minds Of some polite
ians and warlike correspondents there
has been no real danger Of war between
the United States and Great Britain.
All the same it is agreeable to observe
that the two countries have about come
together on the proposition to arbitrate
the seal fisheries question.
Lord Salisbury, after the regulation
amount of diplomatic fencing, reaches
the conclusion that arbitration is good
thing, and he states the points which
his government is willing to arbitrate.
Among these is, "What are now the
rights OF the United States as to the fur
seal fisheries in the waters of the Boring
Sea outside OF the ordinary territorial
limits?"
The adjudiction Of this question covers
the whole ground torit opens thewhole
question from beginning to end. We
set up certain claims as growing ont Of
our purchase from Russia. This Great
Britain denies, and she shows an indis'
position to face them bluntly. We as
sert that We have some rights beyond
the territorial limit by reason Of the
necessity Of protecting tho seal. Great
Britain pretends to regard this claim as
absurd.
II the arbitration shall determine what
ire now our rights We shall have reached
the end of a question which has made
infinite trouble and, while it has not
threatened war, has somewhat impaired
the friendly relations between two PEG.
pies who should always be good friends
and good neighbors.
AS the two countries. great enough to
fight II fighting were the best thing to
do, have shown the world that they
were great enough to arbitrate when
both were inaamed by then recent
events, 80 now they are about to prove
that they have lost none Of that high
quality OF common sense which is the
basis of the real greatness of nations as
OF individuals.

on The subject, the industrial history OF

record Of strikes, lock.outs and heated

to equal in the history Of any country at

aTe close observers in Great Britain who
ose,ibe this state of slIairs to the Free

The difference OF opinion between the
two branches OF Council concerning the

brought a question from Second
Branch member which suggests some
misapprehension as to the scope and du.
ties Of the 1.-TWO branches.
The First Branch having failed TO fall
in readily with the salary increasing pro.

use of having two branches Of Council,

Bin. BALFovH has had his eyes opened
since he stoutIy insisted that the failure
o! the potato crop in Ireland was not
much Of calamity after all. An
official inquiry shows that the crop has
failed through about one-balt OF Ireland
and that the distress increases. What a
pity that the "gtrong measures" of the
Tory Government are not strong enough
to make potato crop grow and save the
people from starvation.
