The Sense of the senate WIN he
Taken and IL Is over.

Washington, Feb. l9.-The silver
fight in the senate is finished and no
vote Will be had on the Jones bill. The
day devoted to that hill showed con-
clusively that no amount of pressure
would bring about a vote and If the
silver bill was kept before the senate
It would result In defeating the appro-
pria ton bills and force an extra ses-
sion.
The silver men feel that they have
shown their strength and believe that
they have gained a substantial victory
In securing the promise OF vote in
part upon the resolution presented by
Mr.. Wolcott declaring the sense Of the
senate, Although the agreement was
not entered into In the senate, all the
senators present who were opposing
the resolution agreed i'm private that
a vote should be had on the resolution
tomorrow. This ends the silver tight
for this session and the appropriation
bills will occupy the remainder OF the
session, with perhaps some time de-
voted to the bankruptcy bill and the
pooling bill.

No American Warships for Japan.

PRIVATE advices received at San Fran
cisco by the last steamer from China show
that the reports of contracts for warships
given by Japan to the Cramps and the
Union Iron Works OF San Francisco were
without foundation. Several Japanese lead
ers were strongly in favor of giving con-
tracts to Americans, but others opposed
this They read extracts from American
papers, showing defects in the new Amer
lean cruisers, and they argued that it would
be folly to have such ships built for Japan.

COMMENT OF THE PRESS.
How 10 Reduce Crime.

Chicago Times-Herald Not more
drastic penalties but greater efficiency in
the apprehension of the criminals Is re-
CURED. We have commented on the grow
ing feeling against capital punishment
which must prevent the extension OF the
death penalty TO crimes against property.
While not disposed to advocate the abol-
ishment of hanging, we must admit that
the superior activity of the hangman in
certain states In the Union has not had a
marked effect in increasing public re-
pose. The four states of Rhode Island,
Michigan, Maine and Wisconsin, which
have abolished capital punishment. are
among the most orderly in the Union. ON
the other hand, observe the states where
hanging IS prescribed for other crimes
than murder. Capital punishment Is pro-
v!ded In Louisiana for murder, rape. as
saut with intent to Kill, administering
poison, arson and burglary; in Delaware
and North Carolina for murder, rape, ar
son and burglary; IN Alabama for murder
rape, arson and robbery IN Georgia for
murder. rape, mayhem and arson; in Ms
souri, for murder, perjury, rape and train
robbing; in Virginia, West Virginia,
South Carolina and NJ Mssiss.ppi for mur-
der, rape and arson: in Florida. Kentucky,
Tennessee, Texas and Arkansas for mur-
der and rape: in Montana for murder and
arson by night: IN Maryland for murder
and arson; in California for murder and
train robbery The moral is obvious.
CAPITAL punishment by Itself is of no great
value"

Make II q Profession.

One of the reforms to which the Re-
publican party should pledge itself Is
the elevation of our consular and dip
lomatic service to a par with that Of
countries like England, France and
Russia. The United States is rapidly
nearing a point In its rapid develop-
ment where It will be forced in de-
fense OF American commercial Inter-
ests as we'll as In obedience to national
self-respect, TO play more than a pas
sive part in the game of international
statecraft. 1t could not, II 1t would
escape from this necessity. Every day
brings us nearer to the inevitable Pc
rlod when our republic will be as in
fiuential power among the great
powers as England or Russia Is now;
and IL we would preserve the dignity of
American institutions in foreign eyes,
we should qualify for that task men
of greater fitness and experience than
the illiterate ward worker In the city
or the swashbuckling editor of the
country party organ, upon whom we
now draw when we want new repre-
sentatives at foreign courts.

A typical case bearing on Spanish ad-
min,strat.on in Cuba has come under no.
tee. A ship called the County Down
loaded n cargo of $500 tons of coal IN sgd
ncy, Cape Breton, ana cleared for Havana.
The Spanish consul in Sydney signed the
clearance papers, reducing the weight of
coal to kilogrammes, but unfortunately,
wrote 2SO,0O0 IN place of $4,000 On ar
rival at Havana the master of the ves-
sci pointed out the mistake to the aii-
thor.t.cs, and stated that it was a clerical
error without intention to defraud. The
agents to whom the vessel was consigned
wrote to the consul at Sydney, and re-
ce.Vcd a reply that the error was entirely
on his part. The matter was duly laid BE-.
fore the government, and at first it WAS
formally notified TO the conSi9nces that
some so would have TO be pad to cover
certain expenses caused by the mistake
II Sht months later the cons!gnceS were
notified that n fine of 81, 600 had been I'M
