The testimony before the Lexow con- mittee in New York on Tuesday made plain the connection between the central detective service and the green goods business. The evidence was very full and very explicit. It included statements as to specified payments to Captain Meakin and to inferior officers, and history of the partnership, for no other name de- scribes it, between the swindlers and the officers set to catch them.

The japanese Government has acted With
good judgment in declining to receive an envoy
who represented the Viceroy rather than the
Government ut Picking. The situation In China
Is fraught with the uncertainties Of civil war
and national disruption, and Count Ito is justi-
fed in insisting upon treating for peace directly
with duly accredited agent Of the Throne
At the same time Japan, having much TO gain
from the continuance Of a war in which the
Chinese military and naval services have com
pletely broken down, is naturally taking adj
vantage Of every technically for delaying peace
making It's shrewdness and practical skill in
diplomacy are exciting alarm and CONSERVATION
i'm Great Britain, where there Is growing appre
hension Of the dissolution Of the Chinese En-
pire.
Japan cannot be forced to negotiate peace
against it's will unless there Is concerted action
on the part Of England, France and Russia.
That there has been secret understanding
among these Powers for many years respecting
a possible partition Of China we do not doubt;
and the State Department at Washington ought
to be exceedingly wary In being drawn into
any European ENHANCEMENT in Asiatic affairs.
All the Foreign Offices are fully employed now
with intrigues in remote quarters Of the earth.
Even GERMANY which has nothing at stake In
China. is apparently making determined ef-
fort TO secure a port In Morocco. according to
the latest news from the Mediterranean. All
these matters lie outside the sphere OF American
interests. and the State Department Is justified
In maintaining a benevolent attitude Of impair
tal neutrality and awaiting the natural order
OF events without prematurely committing itself
to any course OF action Respecting Bluefeds

PARK POSSIBILITIES FOR BROOELYN.

A public hearing is to be given In Brooklyn
tomorrow evening by Park Commissioner
Suuier In accordance with Il provision OF the
law under which II is proposed greatly to en-
large the park area of the city. This law was
passed through the influence OF certain Ring
politicians In Brooklyn, who hoped 10 establish
a park near Fort Hamilton. and thus give
boom to real estate which they had bought up
In that neighborhood. II proves To have been
a blessing In disguise. The authors Of the law
were unable TO carry out their scheme before
the change In the municipal government brought
about at the election II year ago. The act. how
ever, was drawn in general terms. and author
lies an issue Of county bonds for the purpose of
acquiring such park sites as may be fixed by
the Park Commissioner Of Brooklyn either In
Kings or any adjoining county. The powers OF
the Park Commissioner are practically unllm-
ited and an opportunity Is thus opened for
Brooklyn TO secure lands for park purposes in
anticipation OF the needs Of the future as well
as the present.
The present park area Of Brooklyn Is limited

10 terminate with his resignation which was ac-
cepted yesterday by his chief whose law part
