The morning news. [volume] (Savannah, Ga.) 1887-1900, 1891-09-17

Many years have rolled by since the
MORNING NEWS had occasion to do auv
picturesque and powerful promising if it
ever really did such thing even in its
calIow youth. But when it comes 10
promptly and thoroughly and accurately
setting forth the current events of the day
in attractive and intelligent shape then is it
that we usually get there in time with ma
jority quite as substantial and satisfactory
as that which the traditional tsrdy returns
brings in from back county. This exempli,
fes the advantages Of complete metropoli-
tan equipment equal TO all extraordinary
requirements. Nothing like keeping just q
trihe ahead Of the procession.

Experience With Gentleman of
Color


Apropos Of recent article in the Free Press
on tipping, quite agree, says Mrs L Rayne
in the Detroit paper of that name, with the
writer that it is a necessary evil; but cannot
quite see why the servants of a great corpora
| ton should be allowed TO fleece the public.
| Either the whisk- broom and shoe blacking de-
| partment OF the sleeping car should be con
| Quoted on the same business principles that the
| barber shop and bootblack employ or they
| should be privileges for which the fee of 90 for
| bed and attendance for one night is supposed
10 pay. But there is no standard price, and a
| man who does not pay extra for these privi-
| leges is made to feel that life is a burden.
1t is much harder for woman to get through
| comfortably without fee. and the wise woman
always paid 1t, even if she has to mortgage her
| sunbonnet at the end of her journey.
| was taking night trip to a distant city
when found that the berth above mine was
| let down, but not occupied. Calling the porter,
| | said
Put that up until it is needed, won't yous'
Cant do It, mssus, it's again the rules Of
| the road"
sat up, nearly Draining myself in the pro
cess.
do you mean to say that the road objects
70 my having that berth closed until 1t is
| taken?''
,zactly missis. I'd lose my place if was
| to close it."
Look here" I said confidentally to the
colored porter who was my valet de chamber:
IF you will leave that berth closed tonight
viii remember you when we reach the city"
u 10.
And now began q narrowing species of torture
which did not relax while l was on the train.
He seemed to think l might cheat him by
climbing out of the car window. did you call
me, missis?" I heard at regular intervals
during the night like the firing of
minute guns. My shoes were carried of
and did not get them until was fully dressed
next morning. My sachel was locked up in the
car cupboard. He brushed, my garments sever
ally and collectively, my bonnet half dozen
times. At last we were in the depot, and the
cars stopped. He seized my baggage and car
ried it to the transfer omnibus, and when | was
seated he jumped up behind and stood on the
steps with where thou-goest lam going"
air Of proprietorship. Then I said wckedly:
IF should report you to the company fear
you would lose your place.
He turned almost white with terror, but still
kept his bully and braggadocio air.
But haven't time this trip" said; here is
your well earned quarter" and l dropped the
money into his hand.
He looked angry. and probably expected
twice as much. He did not thank me, but took
himself off and was rid of his hateful surveil
lance.

Whatever the bustling western man
may do is generally done on a large and ex-
pansive scale. Nothing small or Of moder-
ate size satisfies the western aspirations at
all. So il is not very surprising 10 learn
that when Secretary EdwardsAlb ertson de-
cided to rob that Washington Trust Com
pany at Tacoma he "swiped" more than a
round million and then disappeared just as
completely as If the earth had swallowed
him up. Possibly the size Of that sum may
account for the eager anxiety Of the bank
people TO interview Mr.. Albertson and the
somewhat desperate efforts that detectives
have lately resorted % IN order 10 catch
him. But ell the willy devices have thus
proven unAyGiling.

Professional scientific PrevarIcation

From the NetU York dvertiser Qnd).
II Prof. Dyrenfurth had succeeded in pro-
ducing the reported rains in Texas. the showers
could by no means have been so profuse as the
liberal amount of lying about them has been
kilograms throughout the country were in
tended to convey the idea that Dyrenfurth had
done something toward accounting for the
$4,000 of the peoples money which congress
1oolishly expended on this freak. But while the
professor was proclaiming the success of his
experiments the Texas newspapers we're say
ing that there was not drop of rain within
miles Of the meteorological mountebank We
must, therefore. assume that the professor is a
dynamic and prismatic prevarcatOr.

Fugitive Balmaceda is said to have done
the sudden scoot act from Chile in the guise
of an hilariously dizzy sailor man, in which
scheme he was aided and Allotted by our Ad-
miral Brown. Just why the admiral should
have felt called upon to so actively SYM
pathize with that manifestly dishonest die
tator and tyrant even up to the last moment,
is perplexing question that seems to call
for a very clear and explicit official expla-
nation. One version Of the story recites
that he went to the chief yankee tar in the
herbor Of Valparaiso and begged like Grip
pie TO be sheltered and given the
privilege Of asylum, and that the
bluff admiral took him aboard merely
through compassion and disguised
him until the flagship San Francisco got out
on the high seas. Since he has escaped it is
matter of comparatively little moment
how it was managed further than to sho "
the restored government Of Chile that the
aid given the escaped autocrat was not
| fragrant breach of courtesy on the part of
the United States. To that extent it is
rather unfortunate that he should have re-
| ceived shelter and aid aboard an American
| wsrship. Added to the former unfrendly
manifestations that incident will give ad-
ditional color to the prevailing belief in
Chile that we have all along been secretly if
not overtlY hostile to the constitutional
cause. Whatever may have been the views
of the administration such a sentiment has
certainly not held sway among the general
| public of America.

Ths Train Robbers.

The detectives who have charge Of the
case Of the express car robbery have done a
very neat piece of detective work, and they
deserve great deal of credit Each one
hiss performed the part assigned him we'll
The plans we're carefully made, and were
carried out successfully. There was no
miscarriages anywhere. Such detective
work will be apt to prevent any more rob-
berries Of express cars in this state. That
kind of crime has become too dangerous.
The robbery on Friday night was the
second on the Central railroad within a very
few weeks, and the robbers in both instances
were promptly captured. In other local.
ties express car robbers have been more
fortunate. Either they were more skillful
in eluding pursuit, or were pursued by less
skillful detectives.
And it seems that the robbers who robbed
the express car Friday night had been steal
ing from the freight oars of the Central
railroad for long time. 1t looks, there
fore, as if they would spend the balance OF
their lives in the convict camps. There
they will have plenty Of hard work to do
and some little time for regrets.

to secure a translation of a cipher
dispatch from Minister Egan to the
state department, in which he stated
that critical state of affairs existed
in Satiago. The dispatch states that
the American legation is surrounded
by the police and a mob, and threats
are freely made to blow IL up or
burn t. on account of the refugees
there. Copies of the cablegram, the
correspondent says, had been sent
to the president and navy depart
ment, and much CONSERVATION had
been created in the latter by its re-
ceIpt. The correspondent further
states that cablegram had beeu
prepared to be sent To Minister
Egau, asking him tO report OH the
situation. II is believed at the navy
department, the correspondent says,
that the state of affIirs around the
legation would not exist if proper
police protection was given. IT the
situation is really as grave AS re-
ported, the naval officials think that
nothing but force can get the refu-
gees out Of the legation. The effect
of Mr.. Egan's dispatch, 1T is thought,
will result in a demand by Blaine
for prompt decision in the Balti-
more case. If this is unfavorable,
congress will be called upon to act,
and if in the meantime any further
hostile demonstrations are made, an
ultimatum will be sent to the Chill
ian government and the navy will
back it up.

THE CAPTAIN PRATT.


LONDON, Dec. 2l.-Advices from
Chill are awaited with great anxiety
by people having interests there, and
the prevalent impression is that the
war cannot be avoided. IT is known
that work on the Captain Pratt, the
formidable ironclad building IN
France for The ChiIian government,
is being hurried to completion aud
that the vessel Will be ready for sea
at an earlier date than originally
intended. There is also runior
that the Chilians are negotiating for
ironc!ads already constructed and
for one vessel probably intended for
use AS cruiser against American
commerce. The Chilians here con-
tinue to express themselves as con.
fident of favorable result of war
with the United States, and they
intimate that they can depend upon
indirect support FROM EurOpe in
carrying on the war. A Berlin dis.
patch states that at last an eff Jit is
being made TO procure German
officers and seamen for the Captain
Pratt, but that the enlistment of the
latter is hindered by report
that Americans could punish as
pirates any seamen they might
capture who enlisted in foreign
country.
