The defeat Of the home rule bill in the
house of lords is accomplished by major
ity which renders hopeless a reversal of the
vote by the creation of new lords In other
conflicts between the house of lords and the
house of commons the former have in the
end given way, but in these cases the pub
lie sentiment as expressed in the popular
house was unr1istakable. and the vote in
the upper house was close enough to make
effective the threat of the creation Of new
lords. In the next house of commons Glrd-
stone must secure a strong and determined
majority for his policy, emitting the Irish
members from the calculation, in order to
have any chance whatever of overcoming
the house of lords. The obstacles i'll the
path of Irish home rule are many and great,
but Gladstone will apply himself to the
herculean task of removing them with IN
abated vigor and enthusiasm. 1t grows
more and more doubtful, however, whether
the venerable statesman will live to see his
hopes in respect to home rule realized.

Worthy Of all attention and certain of
favorable response from those who love
their fellow beings is the proclamation is
sued by Gov. Tillman of South Carolina to
the people of the United States appealing
for contributions with which to alleviate
the distress of those who suffered by the
storm that did so much damage on the
southeastern coast. The story Of disaster
has not and probably never will be fully
told. Not less than twenty thousand PEG
pie are utterly destitute. and at a season
OF the year when they can do but little to
help themselves. The governor says that
a sufhciency of bread will alone cost rot
less than $4,000. 1t will be fully eleven
months before there can be reproduction OF
the crops that were swept away, and until
that time the thousands OF unfortunates
must subsist almost entirely upon the char
ity of those who have enough and to spare.
Says the governor: Medicines, bed cloth
ing, anything that can be used in house
because everything is gone-wii be thank
fully received. We can buy these things
with money, but IL money is not 70 be had
don't hesitate to contribute. Send all con-
tributions to me-" There should be no
hesitation in replying to this pointed APP
peal Surely II shall never be said that in
this great land worthy but unfortunate VIC
tins of disaster which was beyond human
control were permitted to starve for lack
of food or go uncovered because there was
not enough Of charity to clothe them. This
is the time when it will be profitable to
pack capacious boxes full of old. but yet
serviceabie, clothing, and to forward them
in care of Gov. Ti,lman. If you have no
old clothes send money.

The Financial Situation.
rom the New York Tribune.

From the New iOrh lrloune-
1t is beginning to be understood that the
situation in business and commercial as
poets does not depend altogether Upon the
action of Congress on this matter. Con-
gress has done nothing. but there is abun-
dance of money in circulation AMI every
prospect that the available supply will soon
be greatly increased by the release of mon
ey boarded when a collapse OF banking
institutions was feared. The abundance OF
money available in all commercial centers
bears witness that the real difficulty al
this hour is no longer scarcity of currency,
but only scarcity of confidence in the flu
ture. Whether this want of confidence has
been due mainly to the uncertainty about
the silver question, or to the uncertain ties
about the tariff. Yet remains to be settled
@These things do not lessen tho
oblisati which every member of Congress
should feel. to remove as promptly as posi-
bic the difficulty regarding the currency
which it is now in the power of Senators to
clear away. 1t is not in their power to set
tie the tariff question as yet. They can
make II clear that the currency of the
country is not to be debased.

Athletic Washington will doubtless view
are being made on the Potomac by visiting
and local oarsmen. For some reason or
other Washington has for several years
been a little short OF that delightful variety
Of muscular talent which was just a little
better than the muscle of which other cities
were and are justly proud. In times gone
by our boat clubs Were more than things
OF beauty. and occasionally achieved con-
siderable distinction, but in these latter
days they have lain upon their oars. as it
were. and have been content to see inferior
organizations from smaller cities capture
honors that should have come here For
this decadence Of athletics there Is I'M
doubtedly a reason; one that may easily be
found by any careful Investigator. From
today there should be a revival of the spirit
OF healthy rivalry; breathing of the
breath of life into the nostrils of almost I'M
conscious organizations. Rihemen of the
District National Guard have set good
example. and have shown the world that
Washington can produce men of much more
than average ability in one line of athletic
endeavOr. Let the boat clubs follow their
example. Today's program is a good one.
There is a creditable number of entries and
the entire proceedings have the appearance
ington's represen Ia tives will so toll that
their deeds may be creditable to themselves
and to the city in which they dwell.

No More Delay,

From the New York Herald.
The dreary silver twaddle still kept up in
the Senate has become simply an intolerable
public nuisance. Sensible Senators are evil
IDENTIFY tired of it and the country is dis
gusted with it. 1t is none the less deplor-
able reprehensible because business is
Frightening up and public confidence is
returning. These encouraging results are
the fruits of the Houses action on the sill
yer danger. They have come in spite of the
Senate's delay and would be greatly ad-
vanced by a vote in that body for repeal
1t is high time for the ma jority to demand
that vote. The silver extremists are now
simply talking against time and filibuster-
ing for delay. They are playing the part
OF obstructionists. This should not be coun-
tenanced. They cannot defeat repeal: they
should not be permitted longer to delay it.

A great deal more importance is likely
to be attached to the cup-defender trial
race today than to that which occurred last
Thursday. The Pilgrim was incapacitated
for work, and the Jubilee was disabled by
an accident very soon after The start
This left two yachts in the race. and of
these the Colonia was declared the winner
but the decision was such a close one that
1t does little or nothing toward esta blish-
ing any claim to actual superiority over
the Vigilant. The race. however. gave as
surance that there is at hand material
that will be credit to the country at the
final trial. and by its closeness adds to the
interest in the contest announced for today.

Capt. Derby. the engineer officer whose
sound recommendations on matters of ma
terial Importance to the District were print
ed in yesterdays Star. suggests that there
be established in this city street lighting
plant to be owned by the District and oper-
ated by the Districts employees. This propo-
sition should receive careful consideration.
Municipal street lighting has been success
full elsewhere, denial by interested parties
to the contrary Notwithstanding, and if
corporations find the work sufficiently profit
able to induce large expenditures for es-
Enlistment, extension and Improvement
surely the work can be economically
done by the government. Street lighting
by gas is now an ancient and unsatis-
factory method. Hundreds of villages

this is a business-like Congress it will give
some thought to the illuminatory sugges-
ton renewed by Capt Derby.

wink at paternalism that is SO clearly bene-
fetal? The use of detectives-or as, for de-
mandatory purposes. they are termed

regulations looking to the public good there
must also be those who will see to it that
the regulations are rigidly enforced, and If
South Carolinians are not sufficiently law

large majority of their instructed repre-
