1t is rather pleasant for Washingtonians
to note that at such time as this, when
financial affairs are still In an unsettled
condition, there has been a decided rush for
the securities Of the Columbia Street Rail-
way Company. This corporation Of its own
motion proposes to operate its road by the
cable system. To make the necessary
changes. which really amount to more than
RECONSTRUCTION, the company needed a con-
siderable sum Of cash, and this 1t has Sc
cured without the slightest difficulty. The
ready response to the bond issue must be
extremely gratifying to the management of
the road; 1t certainly is strong testimony
to the value of a local security based upon
a stable and conservativeiy-c conducted local
Institution.

One Of the few foolhardy mer who sue
coed. for a time at least. has completed a
voyage from New York to England in a
small boat which no one, save Its builder
and proprietor, supposed could be safely
navigated across the Atlantic. The voyage
was a remarkable affair and the daring
Finnish seaman-who halls from Milwaukee
and whose voyage really commenced from
that port-will doubtless be lauded very
considerably and may make some money
out Of the venture by exhibiting himself
and his little craft. But the voyage proved
nothing, discovered nothing, established
no principle, uncovered no mystery. 1t was
mere foolishness in every respect, I'M
worthy Of encouragement.

idea Is good one. but II is hoped by a very
large percentage Of the American people
that even those who are called upon to ex-
ercise judicial prerogatives will rot be I'M
mindful Of the services rendered the nation
by those who have been so frequently and
so unreasonatly denounced by time-serving
writer's and past-masters in the art Of dema-
gogic oratory. Occasionally some Congress
sional economist vociferously declares that
never were soldiers more richly rewarded
than have been and are those who are fairly
represented by the Grand Army Of the Re-
public. The declaration Is true and SO Is the
frequently-neglected statement that never
did the valor Of mankind save from destruc-
ton such a country as this. The apex Of
Grand Army membership has been reached ;
from this time forth there will be steady de-
crease-a continuous thinning out of the
ranks. In a little while there will be none
left Of the many who followed the Stars
and Stripes through evil and good report"
In the burning summer days and when
winters cold was most intense. To meas
ure the sufferings Of those who survived the
battle. the camp and the prison is impossi-
BILE; to make adequate recompense is also
impossible. These are good things to re-
member hen the pension question is being
| discussed.

j. I'm Bull in Venezuela.
From the New York Sun.

Those of the Venezuela gold fields which
have been seized by England will very GER
tainly be held as long as gold can be got
from them. President Crespo has learned
that he cannot recover them by force, but
he has been led to believe that he can in
duce England to surrender them by visit
ing Lord ROsebery at London and proving
to him, with the aid of old documents and
maps, that they belong rightfully to Ven
ezuela. Crespo is the most successful sol
der, the shrewdest politician and the clev-
crest diplomatist in Venezuela. but how IS
Ii possible for him 20 think that England
Will succumb to any argument he can offer
while conducting persona negotiations with
the head of the foreign office in London?
The mere fact that, In the territory under
dispute. thtre are rich gold fields profitable
to British companies, renders futile all ne
gotiations for the withdrawal OF British
troops from that desirable TERRITORY.

In electing Mr.. Samuel F. Phillips

In electing Mr.. Samuel F. Phillips to the
presidency of the Metropolitan Street Rail-
way Company the directors of the COM
pany did good thing for themselves and
for the community. President Phillips has
had much experience in the street railroad
business. both In this city and in New
York. and Is thoroughly qualified to bring
about the many changes necessary to make
the Metropolitan Road first-class in every
respect. Those who know Mr.. Phillips are
aware Of his executive ability and look
confidently for speedy and steady move
ment toward the ideal condition which
was ever before the eyes OF his deceased
predecessor. and which Mr.. Stephenson.
after many struggles In overcoming OBJ
stacles. seemed at the time of his death
about to realize.

The neatness and dispatch with which
Prosecutor Gon is forging the chains of
evidence around the minor members of
New York's police force in the Lexow in
vestisation indicates that there is some
thing big getting ready to drop. There
seems to be little or no trouble In this
process that is so deftly managed by Mr.
Con, process that starts with the theory
that the ordinary patrolmen are too insig-
nihcant in their corruption: that the
Toundsmen are but the tools of some higher
authorities. and that the captains could
not have been successful in their game
of biackmail without the knowledge and
probably the consent of the supreme au-
thority Of ell the board of commissioners
This theory has been regularly demon
strated to be a fact in almost every sepa-
rate case of corruption that Mr. Con- has
presented to the committee. He no longer
fas trouble In eonvicting roundsmen and
captains of crooked work. They have ceased
to be even good sport for him. His guns
are undoubtedly loaded for the giants of
the forest and the news that is now pull
sating daily from the metropolis is laden
with significance. The mastery work of
Mr.. Con- is awakening new wonder, even
after the long recess of the committee, and
the moral elements of the country are
highly gratified. There Is no sympathy
here, and. probably little In New York.
with the now thoroughly discredited board
Of commissioners. The feeling rather Is
that the sooner Mr.. Gof unmasks his
heavy batteries and opens fire on the tiger
Itself the better for the community. He
has certainly stalked his game well. and
his outposts are effectively placed His
nets cover almost every opening for escape.
and the pubic is eager to see the animals
run when the word is given. The sordid
details Of petty dickering between police
men and criminals have somewhat lost
their power to hold the interest of the
people. AS a mere spectacle the hunt ought
to be hurried along. But there is reason
to believe that Mr.. Golf Is clever enough
to SO time his actions that he and the tiger
may come face to face just before the
elections. so that the moral effect Of the
encounter, whatever its results. may be
the greater.
