that there were not more errors

of the balls hit by the Roanokes were

AT A MIDNIGHT MEETING
Anacostia Road Employees Decide
to Reject the Agreement.
II President Griswoid Carries Out
His Scheme n Tie-Up VIII
ProbabI Follow.

special meeting OF the employees of
the Anacostia and Potomac River Street
Railway, was held at Haires' Hall, Ana
costa, lastseveniny, TO consider the terms
of the agreement entered into on Friday be-
tween wemhers Of the Street Railway AS
sembly and President Griswold.
The meeting was largely attended and
was conducted by President Thomas 1.
Lawrence. jPwo members OF the committee
who sig ned the agreement were present and
explained Gheir reasons for doing so, and
stated that now they knew they were mis-
led.
The matter of accepting or rejecting the
agreement was then submitted to the
meeting. The vote was Overwhelmingly
against acceptance, there being only one
vote in favor OF approving il.
President Lawrence spent several hours

leading citizens, and ali 10 whom he spoke
are very much opposed to the wages OF
the employees of the Anacostia road being
reduced. In fact, they said that even ir
the men submitted to a reduction they
would walk IN preference to patronizing
a corporation that was attempting to
grind its employees.

night the men " III continue 10 work right

GIRLS, REFORM SCHOOL

There should be no more delay than is
absolutely unavoidable on the part of
Congress, to grant the forty-five thou
sand dollars asked by the Commissioners
for the Girls Reform School, as it is most
urgently needed there. An impression has
gained ground that the management OF
that institution would be much more eff,
fectiye, If the accommodations for the in
mates were less cramped. Whatever dis
satisfaction has arisen among them and
whatever disturbances have occurred in
consequence thereof, were largely due to
this cause.
In a reformatory like this girls school.
where SO many different dispositions, all
more or less warped, are thrown together,
the question of proper control is one Of
serious import. 1t requires not only rare
patience and discrimination on the part of
those in authority, but neccssitates the
right kind of extraneous accessories. Chief
among these are proper quarters. An evil,
the consequences of which can hardly be
estimated, is the crowding together of too
many Of the inmates into the cells or rooms
Of the institution. This gives rise TO ex-
change Of condolences and the rehearsal
OF mutual grievances, real or imagined,
which not infrequently engender q spirit

FREE kINDERGARTENs.

A report just made to subscribers for
the maintenance of free kindergartens,
through Mr.. b. Pickman Mann, shows
that these admirable institutions, sup
ported wholly by voluntary contributions,
have been doing work OF inimeasurable
value during the two years that have passed
since they were first established.
Little mention has been made OF these
schools. Their work has not been paraded
in public view, but it has been earnest and
effective, and scores of children have
been given new impressions Of the meaning
OF human life in the great world into
which they are cast amid environments
which must incline them TO rebel against
their enforced existence.
These schools, SO courageously and pa
tiently maintained by the philanthropic,
are deserving of the most liberal support,
and no more laudable undertaking could
engage the mind of those whose time and
ability will permit than labor and expendl-
ture in their development.

SPAIN EXCITED.

The extraordinary news reached America
yesterday that the Spanish government is
preparing protest TO present to the Gov
ernment OF the United States against hold
ing the mass-meeting in this city which
has been announced to take place on
October 81. Moreover, the govern
ment organ, at Madrid, Ell impartial, has
sent a special correspondent here to give
his impression of American sentiment and
American determination.
1t is gratifying to know that the pro-
posed mass-meeting has aroused the Span
ish government Let the protest be made
by all means. II it have no other effect
it may lead the administration of public
affairs at Washington to find its voice,
and say something upon the Cuban question.
Meantime, citizens need not be afraid
to go out of doors at night on ac-
count OF danger from Snanish invasion.

MACEO.S VICTORY.

Two Important news items regarding
the affairs of Cuba were served up To
the readers of The Times through the
evening edition of the paper yesterday.
The one was the account of the great
victory won by the insurgent Gen. Maceo;
the other was the announcement of the
arrival in this city of two distinguished
Spanish journalists, whose mission in this
country is said to be to keep the Spanish
people more accurately informed of what
transpires in the United States respecting
Cuba, and to check, If possible. the popular
sentiment here respecting the insurgent
cause. -t.-
Should the news of Gen. Maceo's victory
be confirmed, it will furnish the world
additional proof that the insurgents forces
are more extensive, more compact and
better lighters than Capt. Gen. Campos
and Spanish partsans generally would wish
the public to believe. For, it must be
remembered all the while. that the in
surgerts are neither well armed and
equipped, nor yet as well drilled, as the
Spanish troops. This latest fight was not,
according to the report, a guerilla skir-
mish, but pitched battle between forces
almost evenly matched as to number%1
though the Spaniards had the advantage
of better equipment.
1t is well to keep these facts in mind
when reading Gen. Campos boast that as
soon as the rainy season is over he will
sweep the island with the reinforcemcnts
now being forwarded from Spain, as with
q broom, and make short work of the in
surrectlon. The sweeping process may
meet with some serious obstacles, even if
attempted by an invading force of 10000
men, when 10000 determined fighters
contest every inch of the way. Not even
the Gordon of cruisers, gunboats and tor
pedoes, with which Spain intends to sur
round the island, will succeed in checking
the progress of the revolution, If Cuba Sc
cures belligerent rights from the United
States. ,.y.
In the present state of public opinion on
this subject this is but a question of a
few months at the most, and then Cuba
will gather new strength for the battle of |
freedom and independence.

GARFlELD'S GREAT SPEECH
Words with Which lie fut John Sherman

The recent controversy as to whether
or not Senator Sherman intended TO re

the Republican national convention or

that time matters OF particular interest
now The nominating speeches OF that
convention were particularly brilliant

GOV. o,FERRALL,s PROMISES

GOV. O'FERRALL'S PROMISES.
In view OF the fact that the dives in
Jackson City flourish as of yore, the re-
port OF the committee OF the Board of
Trade contains severe indictment against
Gov. i0,Eerrall, That report sets forth that
he, the chief executive of the proud old
commonwealth of Virginia, promised the
committee that he would promptly pro-
ceed against the Offending parties as soon
as such evidence should be submitted to
him as would hold good in a court of
Justice The detectives employed by the
committee procured such evidence; IL was
furnished the Governor and his attorney
general; they expressed themselves as per-
fectly satisfied with it, and-gambling still
goes on without interference from the chief
magistrate of the State.
1t must be truly edifying to the people
of Virginia to know that their Governor
esteems his official pledges so lightly, and
TO see tha1 the open, uDdisguised, almost
defiant lawlessness which taints one OF
the counties of tue State and makes of it
a moral plague spot fails 10 move him to
correctional action. They must feel highly
elated TO be made aware that the Governor
of Virginia has no scruples about violating
his oath of office, which obligates him to
execute and administer the laws of tue
State.
Some time since one of the leading news
papers of Virginia attempted TO frame an
excuse for Gov. o'Ferrall by saying that
the chief supporters and customers of the
jackson City dives come from Washing
ton and are not residents or citizens of
Virginia. That sort of argument, If it were
accepted by The Governor as valid, would
be a terrible ''testimonium paupcrtatis"
both TO his intelligence and to his moral
perception. II might as well be said that
the Prince OF Monaco is mol TO blame for
running and profiting by the gambling
hells of Monta Carlo because fools from all
parts OF the world go there. lose their
money and commit suicide.
Gov. OrFerrall must have credit for too
much penetration to hide behind so puerile |
a plea. But the unpleasant alternative is |
presented TO him to confess that he has |
neither observed the obligations of his |
official cath TO uphold the laws nor kept /
the promises he made TO the committee of |
the Board of Trade.
