THE BEHRING SEA CASE.

A contemporary thanks Lord Salisbury
for pulling Mr.. Blaine out of hole and
putting himself in the vacuum this with
draw al of Mr.. Blaine has created. This is
an easy way of assuming that Mr.. Blaine
had failed to sustain the American side of
the case, and that his failure was concealed
by the effort of Sir John Thompson TO take
the case into the Supreme Court of the
United States. While the movement of a
foreign Minister TO appeal from the execu-
tive branch of the Government to the judicial
Is in a sense offensive to the President and
Secretary Blaine it might be considered A
well-intended effort to arrive at an authori-
tative definition of the law of the case If
the London Times, which speaks for the
British Ministers, had not said that the Brit
lsh Government would not consider itself
bound by an adverse decision of the Ameri-
can Supreme Court. This declaration re-
'duces Sir John Thompson's petition to an
effort to procure the condemnation of thu
American executive branch OF the Govern
ment by the judicial branch, without preiu-
dice to the British case if the effort failed.
If the British Government had proposed 10
abide by the decision Of the American Su-
preme Court, whatever il might be, it would
have been entitled to the credit of express
ing confidence in the lmpartiality of the
American court But as the matter stands
the British Government does not express
such confidence. 1t will get a favorable de-
cisi0n from the Supreme Court if it can, but
viii surrender no ground of contention if
the effort fails. The Canadian or British

proposition will put the American people in
a bad temper. 1t will close up public optn-
ion in support of the Administration,
whether right or wrong. In controversies
between nations there comes point wnen
the equities of a case are lost sight OF. Inc
Brhring Sea controversy approaching that
point The attempt of the British Ministry
to bumiliate the President, combined with
the uncalled-for reflection CT the British
press upon President Harrison's motives,
has created complications that may not be
easily smoOthed over.

favorable consideration. Major Bunebrake
is President of the Los Angeles National
Bank, and was Chairman of the Republican
State Convention which nominated Governor
Markham. He is man who has been active
in the development of the resources of the
southern counties. There are three or four
men in San Francisco who would like 10 be
Senator but no one of them so towers above
his associates that the failure of the LegSla-
ture to recognize his claims could be con-
sidered an OVERSIGHT

MILAN, June 12.-Apropos Of the re.

members of the Mala Vita society
charged with various crimes, tho Illus
tra.ione laliana, OF this city, says: The
Camorra, of Naples, and the Malta, of
Sicily, exist in Apulia (Adriatic prov
inces of Southern Italy, under the name
of Mala Vita (eyil liie). 1t is an organ

divides the profits OF the Mala Vita So
ciety from thetts, robberies, etc. Fifty
per cent goes to the chiefs, % per cent.

were the authorities able to lay hands.
on portion Of its members and associ-
ates.
Although 179 members OF the society
have been brought to trial to the court
at Bari, the authorities have not been
able to secure the chief ones among the
guilty, and it is probable they never
will be caught. The head chief is called
"Wise Master" The candidate is init.
ated with great fornRlity according to
an established ritual and is obliged to
take the following oath with one foot IN
a tomb and the other in the chains: II
swear to abandon father, mother, chill
dren and relatives, to mako war against
infamy and guarantee humility.
"Infamy" Is understood to be hunger
and humility" the weak. The cardi-
nal principle OF the society is that the
rich should maintain the poor. He who
possesses nothing has the right to live
at the expense :, the others, is the
foundation upon which the whole edi-
fee is built.
Members ef the society arc subjected
to severe discipline. Disobedience to
orders is punished by the chief. If
light, with razor gashes upon the face;
if grave, with death. For every revela-
ton, or betrayal, and for every testi-
mony against o member, the punish
ment Is death. Those who execute the
sentence are selected by lot and, when
designated, are themselves put to death

Nxw Toax, June l2.-JuNo Merz-
bacher, the general agent Of the New
York Life Insurance Company for the
West Indies and Spanish Americas, is q
defnulter for thousands. The news Of
the dsfalcation has just been made pub
lie. Tho robbery was discovered by
Merzbacher's partner, Joaquin Sanchez,
last December, when Sanchez returned
from six months trip through South
America. Merzbaeher, when accused
by his partner, made q clean breast Of
the affair, Then notice was sent out TO
all tho agencies of the New York Life
Insurance Company in Spanish America
that Merzbacher had retired, owing to
i'll health. The amount Of his stealings
is not known. Itis estimated at from
$500, 1000 to 100000. The officers OF the
company admit that 1t is over $l50,009,
but say that the company will lose
nothing, as Mr.. Sanchez can be held re-
sponsible Tor his partners stealings,
and besides, they say, that the renewal
premiums on the enormous amount Of
insurance that MerzbaCher secured will
so fur toward wiping out the loss.
