Sun says editoriaIIY:
Ernest j. Knabe was n central
and conspicuous figure in business
and social circles of Baltimore. He
was not only a manufacturer, hut a
trained and skillfuI musician. AS a
manufacturer, he gave employment
TO large number of people, and car
red the name and fame of Baltimore
to every civilized land. His father,
who was a native of Germany, start
ed in this county the great industry
with which his name is connected ali
over the world. His son, who has
just died, was a fine type of the Ger
man-American stock which has fur
nished to America vast number oil
her most valuable and patriotic citi-
zens. The firm of which he was the
head has always been noted for its
liberal dealings with its employees,
ard the close relationship and friend
Iy feeling which existed between em-
pIoyer and employe has long been
one of the most pleasing features OF
this great business. The result OF
that relationship has been the exemp-
tion of the firm from the labor troubles
which embarrass so many large manu-
featuring concerns. In all matters
tending to promote the welfare and
prosperity of Baltimore 8Ir. Knabe
took leading part. AS musician
lie could appreciate real merit. and
it is told of him that in quiet way
he extended q helping hand TO many
who, through that help, were enabled
TO make their way in the world.

tleman complains of the criticism of
some of the New York papers upon
Senator Faulkner and himself. i'm
putting to them motives and positions
with respect to the effort to put q
tariff on coal that are entirely unde-
served. He says that it appears
from these criticisms that the New
York papers had to find somebody to
charge with the delay in the passage
of tile tariff bill. and sought to make
Senator Faulkner and himself the
scapegoats to bear the sins of others.
He denies that either himself or SEN
ator Faulkner have delayed the bill .
moment by any demand for n coal
tariff or for any other purpose.
Quoting from his Letter he says: 1--WE
both took the position in the beginning
that we would vote for any tariff bill
presented to the Senate, without any
demands and without any conditions.
We, however, both stated that as a
large number of our constituents
thought they we're Interested in u
duty on coal, that If the committee
concluded TO leave some duty on that
article it would be agreeable 10 us. "
