The aequittal of the SieiIiaus &C.
cused Of assissinating D. @. HENNEssY.
Chief of Police of New Orleans, has
been followed by events sufficiently
dreadful in themselves but which will
surprise no one familiar with the
circumstances Of the case or with the
population of New Orleans. The
assassination was one Of the most
cruel and revolving on record. It
was. presumably. the act Of hired
bravosinstigated BY men who sought
to obstruct the operation of law.
New Orleans has long been cursed by
the practice of the vendetta. Not
once but hundreds of times have her
people been sh ocked and outraged By
murders Of SURPRISING brutality. Not
once but hundreds OF times have the
witnesses of these butcheries refused
to aid the Law by giving testimony.
1t was in the prosecution of a then
recent instance Of the sort, and be-
cause there seemed at last Q prospect
Of putting and end to the vendetta,
that Chief HENNEssY was set upon by
q score of assassins and foully muir.
dered at his own threshold. There
was tremendous manifestation OF re-
sentiment at the time and violence
was apprehended at any moment.
The excitement snbsided. however,
under pressure of more moderate
counssls. and nothing was thereafter
done to interfere with the processes of
Law. But when the acquittal was
rendered yesterday. and when it
came TO be understood that this was
the fruit OF q corruption Of one or
more of the jury. then the popular
wrath broke through all bounds. The
people became convinced that the
machinery of justice was powerless
against the secret forces of the ven-
delta, and in Q moment Of uneontroll.

The impression is general in official
circles at Washington that it would be
just as we'll il the Italians throughout
the country would abandon the idea of
public meetings and resolutions about
the popular execution Of the eleven
criminals in New Orleans. The
agitation can have no bearing upon
the fact that the men were put to
death as criminals and not Italians.
The gross insult to the American flag
by Italians at New Orleans before the
killing will probably furnish grounds
Of demand for an apology from Italy
If that nation persists in assuming re
sponsibiiitY for the acts of her sub.
jects in this country. A gentleman
in Washington. who is a recognized
authority on international law, says
the affair has no feature about it that
suggests an international or race
question. The London Times defends
the act of the people of New Orleans.

THAT BRICK CRUISER.
What Capt. Meade Says Of the Criticisms on
His Proposed Exhibit.

His Proposed Exhibit.
A reporter of THE STAR today met Capt.
Richard W. Meade, the representative of the
Navy Department for the worlds exposition,
and asked what he thought of the recently pub
lished protest by Chicago ex-naval officers
against his proposed brick cruiser.
''The men who got that thing up said Capt.
Meade, may be great naval experts, but they
know mighty little about worlds expositions.
II there are to be no exhibits except those
which can be displayed in their native habitat,
so to speak, there will be no exposition worth
seeing. Why. President Palmer wants fac
SMILES Of streets in Cairo, Bagdad, Toxic and
other places, and proposes to import real pa
gans to live in them. I fancy Chicago has no
permanent use for the structures or the pagans.
The Colorado miners propose to dig hole in
the prairie and line it with precious ores and
metals and call it mine. The fish commission
hopes to have an aquarium and to fill it with
salt water and marine animals-poor things
but it won't be an ocean. The War Department
will probably build classmates and erect hos
pitals yet it ia to be hoped not for actual, per-
manent use in Jackson Park. The hfe-saving
service will put up and fully equip station,
but the exposition will close before the storm
period. and l fear the navy will be called on to
furnish men to be saved every time drill of
the life-saving crew is ordered.
''Such things are the most taking features Of a
great exposition. Half our naval display
would be ridiculously out of place anywhere
else than in ship. The western people will
pay their full share of the cost Of our ne W
cruisers. and we propose to show them what
one is like and to display the munitions and
appliances of naval warfare, not as they would
appear stacked up in an arsenal or warehouse,
but nearly as possible amid characteristic
surroundings.
"The amount of information displayed by
these late naval officers probably explains
why they are SO. At least none of the present
officers of the navy are ignorant Of the fact that
money appropriated for an exposition cannot
be used to build war vessels, or of the other
fact that Congress would not entrust the con-
structiOn to board constituted like ours. The
amount allotted to the department would be in
sufficient to lay the keel to steel cruiser even
if our treaty with England did not prohibit it,

THE POST OFFICE SITE.
The Commissioners Have Viewed All the
Property to Be Purchased.

properly 10 be furcnasc0.
The city post office site commission today
completed their work of viewing the various
properties in the square on the south side OF
Pennsylvania avenue. opposite The STAR Office.
Beginning on Monday at the corner of 11th and
C streets they have visited each building in the
square and seen its condition and its situation.
They are now ready to hear what the
property owners may have to say in
regard to the value of their respective
interests. The owners of the thirty parcels
comprised in the square will be notified that
the commission will meet on Monday in the
old Circuit Court room, city hail. at IL
o'clock, for the purpose of taking testimony.
All the property owners or their representa-
tives will be given a chance to inform the men,
bers Of the commission as to what they con-
slider the true value of their property. Mr..
Taggart, the representative of the government,
will be present to look after the interests Of the
proposed purchaser. The hearing will be con-
tinued from day to day until all the testimony
is in.
PRINCIPLES THAT WILL GOVERN THE COMMISSION.
Under the instructions received from Judge
James the commission will be guided by GER
tain principles in receiving the testimony that
may be approved. Each piece Of property is
to be appraised separately and the commits
sion are to place upon these parcels a fair
market value with reference to the most advan-
tageous use to which it can be put by private
persons or corporations Evidence will be ad-
mitted as to how the property is used as show
ing the uses to which 1t is adapted, but
the commission will not consider the
profits of the business carried on upon the
property. They will not allow damages
FOR injury to business arising from removal or
for the expenses of moving, nor for loss in the
value OF fixtures arising from the removal Of
the same. No compensation will be allowed to
tenants whose only interest in the property is
tenancy at will or by sufferance. When an
unexpired term of alease is found to be of value
the commission will ascertain the amount of
such value in one sum and then state the
amount which such sum is to be reduced per
month until the actual taking of the property
by the United States. If such lease expires be-
fore the occupation then the commission are
instructed not to allow the tenant anything.
THEIR REPORT TO THE COURT.
After the commission has taken all the evil
dence then they will prepare their report. stat
ing what in their opinion is the value of each
parcel in the square This report will be sub
mitted to the court, and upon its favorable ac-
ton the government can take possession of the
property.
1t is thought that this work will be COM
pleted in the course of few weeks. The 25th of
next June will be just year since the bill be-
came a law authorizing the condemnation Of
the square.

The Police Trial Board.

There was a long session of the police trial
board held today, although there we're only six
policemen up on charges.
In one case an officer was tried for blacking
the eye Of brother officer, and the one with
the black eye had to stand and be sworn on the
same book as the man who was charged with
doing the damage.
The trial of Policeman Auguste of East wash
ington consumed more time than the
other five cases. The charges against him were
preferred by his brother-in-law and
grew out Of the arrest Of the latter
for disorderiy conduct in Uniontown on
Washington's birthday. The brother-in-law,
whose name is Speiden, was fined for that Of
fense by Judge Miller. The Witnesses for the
defense, and there was a number Of them,
contradicted the allegations made by Speiden,
