A question of etiquette has arisen
which may prevent the Princes Eulalia
Of Spain from tarrying longer in this
country. Indeed it is among fine posi-
bilities that she may turn round when
she gets to New York and sail for Spain
without going to the fair at all. The
Spanish court thinks President Cleveland
should return her call at the White
House by personal call upon her at her
apartments, and he has been sounded by
the Spanish minister officially on the SUBJ
ject. He is understood to have positively
declined to do any such thing, such a
proceeding being entirely against pre-
cedent. 1t is surmised therefore that
the Spanish court may take umbrage at
his refusal and order the Princess to
shake the dust of this country from her
feet and return home. Probably the fair
can worry along without her. but her re-
turn will be a terrible disappointment to
New York s four hundred.

Some Californians in Washington are
saying that if Justice Field was on the
Pacific coast he would be in danger of
being lynched for his dissenting opinion
in the Geary case. Undoubtedly there is
considerable element on the Pacific
coast made up of such people as used to
listen to the harangues of Dennis Carney
or the Sandlots who would not hesitate
to lynch Judge Field or anybody else
who disagreed with them on, the Chinese
question, but they misrepresent the SEN
timent Of the decent people of that To-
cality who, though opposed to Chinese
immigration, have no disposition to rid
themselves of the Celestials by resort to
violence or unnecessarily harsh meas
ures.

The prompt Indictment of Bruiser Sui
livan for assault and battery on a Pull
man train On Sunday night does great
credit to the grand jury of York county.
Apparently there is an effort being
made to get him out of his fix under the
statute that allows the court to dismiss a
case of this sort when the assaulted
party has acknowledged satisfaction. 1t
Is to be hoped that the attempt will not
succeed. The payment of fine to the
state, or of money to the person assault
ed is no punishment to Sullivan. The
money will be furnished by some of his
admirers. The only punishment that he
will feel will be a term in Jail and this
he richly deserves. If there is any
doubt that he can be punished under the
assault and battery statute the grand
jury should indict him under section
73of chapter 81 of the Revised Statutes
which provides that
Whoever behaves in dsorderly or riotous
manner while on any train OF railroad cars. or
uses indecent or profane language in such car,
