The reason that prominent Republi-
cans are not laboring as actively as
as Mr.. Cleveland to keep their par
ty right on the currency question
is that there is no necessity for such
efforts. The Republican party, out
side OF few of the Western mining
States, is now and has been opposed
to Tree Coinage. 1t requires no des-
perate efforts to keep it on the right
course. Milwaukee Seminal.

To the Editor Of The Evening Star:
Why won't the Brightwood road treat all
its patrons alike? We, who come in from
Montgomery county. have been consider
ately furnished with standing room on the
pike while awaiting a car, and then, when
we get tired, we are permitted to cross over
and rest on Admiral Lees rail fence. But
even these accommodations seem made
ouate in stormy weather, and the past five
days of continuous rain have developed a
disposition among us to cut the trolley
line and house ourselves in the commo-
dious, warm and attractive station Of the
Baltimore and Ohio at Silver Spring.
Should the threats l have heard from
patrons of the Brightwood road be carried
out, there would be a considerable falling
off in the daily receipts of that line.
The road has supplied Its patrons with a
81 elter at the Takoma end Of the line and
there is another shelter at the Tth street
junction, and, while both of these buildings
are suggestive of the ancient COW shed
style of architecture, We at the upper end
of the line would feel grateful for this
much even. We think we ought to receive
as much consideration, at least, as the
average farmer shows his cattle. The Star
has proven itself to be a powerful per-
suader in all good works. Lend US thy
hand! SILVER SPRING.

Not to Be Asked to Pay Taxes on

The Commissioners have Cancelled the
special assessment against the Mexican le-
CATION, basing their action upon an opinion
of the attorney of the District Of Columbia,
in which he says:
"It is general principle Of modern in
ternational law that ambassadors and 9TH
ers, transacting diplomatic business abroad,
enjoy as class established legal rights and
immunities of person and property in the
governments to which they are accredited
as the representatives of sovereign powers.
1t is on this principle the property of for

from that of the Corean legation, in refer
ence to which he advised the Commission
ers they were not exempt from the pay
ment of water rents. which are neither

What Librarian SpOfOrd Says of Du
Maurier's Book .sTriIby."

w hat SpOHOru says
Maurfer's Book "Trilby."
Trilby, the great Trilby, that has set the
fashionable world on edge and has inspired
tableaux and has given names to all sorts
Of commodities, from a slipper to a post
office; this Trilby a plagiarism? Du Maur-
Ter common literary pirate? Such, in
deed is the information that has been
flashed across the country from Denver,
where suit is now being tried against a
theatrical company that seeks to produce
the dramatized version of Trilby without
paying royalty. In answer to the complain
ing publishers they have set up the plea
that Trilby was not originated invented or
written by Du Maurier but that the original
title and book were first published in
France in 1890, and so have been common
property for seventy-five years.
As in Washington all questions relating
to books and their contents. all hard liter
ary conundrums. are referred To Mr. Spof-
ford, the librarian of Congress, so a Star
reporter asked him this morning what he
knew about the possibility of Du Maur-
fer's being violator of the first principles
of literary efforts. The. suggestion did not
startle MIR: Spofford. as he made the dis
covery while the novel was running through
the pages of Harper's Magazine that as
early as 1870 gentleman called Charles
Nordier published a little story, romantic
Mr.. Spofford read the old work, which had
been translated into English. and found
that there was not the slightest resem-
blance between the old and the new Trilby,
either in FORM style or conception. The old
Trilby is merely short story of no special
interest and contains no possible suggestion
that has been apparently expanded in Du
Maurier's popular novel. Since the Trilby
craze began there has been a new transIa-
ton Of 'Trilby, the Maid of Argyle" and
an edition Of the book has been put on the
market in the apparent hope of catching
some of the trade by the similarity of
names. This is Mr.. Spoffords theory of its
republication at this particular time. In
deed, there are two separate editions of the
old work, which is not more than one
tenth as long as Du Maurier's.
'Mr. Du Maurier," said Mr. Spoftord to-
day, committed no plagiarism by his use
of the word ''Trilby.' An author cannot
copyright noun, an adjective or a proper
name l cannot see how the possibly ac-
cdental similarity of these titles should
operate to excuse the unauthorized use of
the dramatized version of Trilby. The Dem
Yer people did not dramatize the story OF
'Trilby. the Maid of Argyle but the story
of Du Maurier's Trilby. The copyright on a
book covers the matter and not the title.
and can find no trace of plagiarism in the
matter Of Du Mauriers work"

Messrs. L. F. Chichester, r. B. Shepherd

ed into for April so as to cover the present
month. The receipts for last month were
not as much as were anticipated by either
the officers of the railway company or the
men, but the latter and Mr.. Gwynne are
convinced that Mr.. Griswold has treated
them with absolute fairness in the matter
The falling off of revenue is attributed to
the tie-up, which, it is said cost at least
$50, the disarrangement of tracks caused
by the changes in construction being made
in the Metropolitan line and rainy weather.
