The decision of the supreme court Of the

the trade relations between CHINA and

Yesterday was an even moro exciting
day than usual for the reform admins
trasion." The new engine was dumped
into the bay: another attack vas made by
the board OF public works upon the ex-
superintendent OF water works: and an
official Of the city attempted 30 cudgel an
editor who had presumed TO critieisc his
Official acts.
There Is noting specially interesting or
novel in 90 slight hlEuder as letting an
engine run OFT the end o! dock. nor IN the
little family quarrel that is being kept MP
between the members Of the board OF pub
Iic works and the superintendent OF water
works whom they discharged.

practically served notice that hereafter the
bIudgeon is 10 be the argument used TO
refate criticisms asains. public Officials OF
the city THIS innovation. however, Is
liable to be attended with some danger
Mr.. Blackstone himself In introducing
the innovation ran the risk Of being
shot and killed like mad Cog by the edi-
tor Of the Press Titnes, whom he assaulted,
and II he had been killed the law would
have recognized 1t - jnstifab!e homicide.
There may of course be cases where
newspaper attacks Of . personal nature
can only be resented by a personal as
sauIt Proper and legitimate criticism.
however, OF a public official in his
official capacity and for his official
acts cannot be suppressed. No self
respecting newspaper will allow itself
20 be cajoled or bullied into main
tanning silence when there are public
abuses to be corrected. To do so would
be to prove recreant to the trust reposed
IN it by the people whose mouthpiece it
should be.

PANAMA'S BOGUS DEALS.
MILLIONS STOLEN BY MEANS OF
VISIONARY CONTRACTS.

Viscount de Vnlebois- Mareuu Calls
on the Government to Ascertain the
Amount Paid Contractors for Work
Actually Done-The Amount Paid
the Press a Mere Trifls Compared
to the Bogus Contract Steal.
PARIS, Jan. 5.-The parliamentary COM
mission of inquiry resumed to-day their
The principal witness called was Viscount
de Villsbois-Mareuil, monArohst deputy
for Mayenne. He said that the sxpendi-
ture of the Panama Canal Company in COR
rupting the press was trifle when com
pared with the enormous amount lost
through bogus contracts. He urged the
commission 20 call the principal con-
tractors aud examine them as to the
amounts received and the work actually
done. The wide discrepancy between tho
two items would then be revealed. The
committee de la union du Panama, he said,
had been formed expressly TO influence
deputies and conspicuous men in the
provinces to favor the lottery loan. The
commission appointed subcommission to
inquire into the viscounts charges, and then
adjourned until Saturday.
ORDER TO BE PRESERVED.
The minister of the interior, NJ. Loubet,

in the cabinet to the adoption of special
measures for the preservation OF order on

uted the funds of the canal company in q

AN EEIGMATICAL POSITION.
NJ Baihut's present position is enigmati-
cal. He has been accused by Ferdinand

ence deputies, and OF having received re-
peated payments from the company. n.

are three cases ct the camp but these are

The medical attendant gave o history OF
