POOR FIELDING
Lost tho Grays Close Game with
Wilkes. Barre.

Lost tho Grnys u Close Game With
Wilkcs.Barrc.
wilkes-Barre, Pa. July 12.-Wiikes-
Barre went into second place today by
defeating the champion Providence
grays In game that was played poorly
on both sides.
Colcolough. Wilkes-Barre's new
pitcher, held the visitors down to three
hits for six innings. but in the last
three seven hits were made from his
delivery with a total of fourteen bases.
He gave seven bases on balls. but Tor
tunately only one of them scored.
Hodson pitched a steady game but
was hit freely in the first five innings,
and the poor support given him allowed
Wilkes-Barre TO score eight runs In the
last four INNINGS. He was puzzle
the remainder of the game, the run In
the eighth resulting from Bassett's err
ror. Rogers received intelligence that
his father had died at Bridgeport, and
Egan held down first very acceptably.
Grihins catch of Bassetts' long hit in
the fifth inning was the star play on the
home grounds this season. Weather

NEW BUFFALO PITCHER.
Did Not Show Up Well Against the
Stars.

Buffalo, N. Y, July 12.-UEtil the
fourth inning today it looked as If
Syracuse would be shut out in order,
but in the fourth the Stars fell on Four
nier, and doubles by Minahan. Eagan.
Moss and Cannon: a base on balls by
Simon, and a bad throw to first by
Fournier netted six runs; two safe
singles and a rank decision by Hurst
at third gave Syracuse one in the sixth,
and some more long drives with a base
on balls thrown in, scored thrs, in the
seventh.
Buffalo played good game in the
field, but every ore of the Stars hits
was a corker way to the outfield, and

Side Of the City Noted.
1T CAUSES GENERAL REGRET
Death Of Professor w. George Powell
Was Sad News to the People OF This
City-Enjoyablc Time at Noun.
tain Lakc-persOnaI Mention

1.-THE West Side interests Of The Tribune
have been placed in the hands Of Emer-
son Owen. to whom all news announce
ments and complaints may be addressedl
1t was sombre Edward Young who
once said Death loves shining
mark" Never has this sentiment been
more sadly verified than in the death
of Professor w. George Powell. First
we see the man. brilliant, popular
and ambitious. with the dawning of
life's usefulness disappearing under
the fuller rays of the sun of success.
Then came ruthless Fate, with it's hard
ened hand touching and blighting for
ever, Gods precious boon, the eyes after
this the flight of hope, the bitterness of
despair; continual, awful darkness.
What could the sympathy Of friendly
legions do toward alienation! Every
charitable tear scalded the victim and
sensitiveness aided in turning every
drop of pity into gall.
Every day the door of his home
opened and closed on friends. His
former pupils We're his constant visi-
tors, and everything that care, SYM
pathy or medical skill could accom-
pish was done, but to no avail. Now
comes death, quietly, silently, and the
soul of the sleeper is stilled forever.
The arrow has reached its mark, the
shaft has entered the shining mark"
but the archer had released the har-
binger Of doom months before.
The valley of the shadow" was en-
tered half year ago, and the awful
journey downward to the dark abyss
ended yesterday with that leap into the
future, where eyes are never blinded
and hearts made sad no more.

THE MONROE DocrRINE.

The attitude OF the administration on the
Nioaraguan embroglio has been in strict
accordance with the best Interests of this
country. AT no time during the controversy
between England and Nicaragua has there
been necessity for our interference, nor
has the spirit OF the Monroe doctrine beer
so infringed as TO require even diplomatic
renlonstrance from our Department OF
State.
To insure peace and promote the good
will of civilization this country must stand
aloof from foreign complications. In no
way are we under obligation to protect
or defend other people, and except in an
advisory capacity the United States should
refuse TO interfere or take part in interna-
tional disputes. Especially should this
policy be pursued toward Central and South
America, where governments change SO
frequently. Should we once begin to take
up their quarrels, there would be no end
to our trouble or limit to the arrogance
OF the little republics demanding our pro-
lection.
Prom a commercial standpoint neither
Central nor South America has a right
to ask the United States for assistance.
The bulk OF their trade goes to Europe;
their banks and financial systems are con-
trolled by European syndicates, and their
commercial intercourse is guided by
European influence. Consequently there
is no reason why we should protect them
from European aggression.
The Monroe doctrine is correct only SO
far as il refers 10 European conquest. It
would not be good policy for the United
States to allow any foreign power to ac-
quire territory by invasion in the Western
continent. And it is only when such an
armed invasion occurs that we should
attempt to interfere

EMERGENCY HOSPITALS.

Health OFFICER Woodward has sug-
essted to the District Commissioners that
before granting the request of the staff
and directors OF Providence Hospital
10 designate it as an emergency hospital
all the other hospitals should be asked IL
they are willing to receive emergency
cases at any hour OF the day and uight
and maintain the necessary operating
Ity with this suggestion letters have been
addressed to the managers or directors OF
all hospitals in the District and tier Ie-
plies are awaited.
The hope may be expressed that favor
able answers viii be received from each
and every one OF these institutions. Fa-
vorable action on their part would be Of
incalculable advantage. The hospitals
are fairly well distributed, and if all
greed sufferers from accidents could
be expedition SLY attended TO, in the
present circumstances a man meeting with
q mishap in Anacostia, or in the extreme
northern or northwestern section of the
District would have TO undergo long,
wearisome and probably painful jour
ney before being delivered over TO the
tender mercles OF the surgeon.
by all means let the directors OF the
different hospitals send a prompt aud
favorable reply to the Commissioners

PoTATo PATcH cRrr1cs.

An effort is being made to discredit
the attempt to provide the poor OF wash
ington means to help themselves. The po-
tabo patch plan has been successfully ope-
rated in other cities and countries, and
those who have been given use OF little
tracts ofland have raistd vegetables enough
TO last them through the winter. The prin-
ciple employed in carrying out this plan
is that which considers poverty a condition
and not a crime. and believes that If poor
people are afforded opportunity to work
they win gladly do SO in preference to
becoming objects or charity in times of
depression and distress.
Last winter the people who are now fore
most in decrying and ridiculing the potato
patch plan were loudest in demanding as
sistance for the poor. The charitable
committees, which are now trying to
devise methods to prevent a recurrence
Of that distress, were then appealed TO
in piteous Zones 10 alleviate suffering.
But there is a change in the sentiment,
and the only plausible reason that can be
urged for the somersault in opinion is best
EluNllHAtA bg NlC AAAEsA2s dAS

Any reasonable effort TO provide against
suffering or 10 promote the wen being Of
the poor deserves aud should receive COM
mendation. And in any event no attempt by
organized charity TO ssist deserving
humanity should be made q subject OF
ridicule. IL would be much more honor
able to criticise in manly spirit than to
don the fools cap and bells TO speak OF
the actions OF reputable citizens, and all
interested in the welfare OF the poor will
be OF that opinion.
The potato patch plan has proved suc-
cessfuI elsewhere and its beneficial results

1t looks very much as If Congress would

There is nothing new in this information.
Every large city has its unworthy officials
and all are more or less dominated by cor
rupt influences. Whether or not it is serious
enough in Washington to warrant public
investigation is q question for Congress
to determine. But before asking for a
committee the evidence should be carefully
considered. and the entire matter suppressed
unless the charges can be fully substantiated.
All well-meaning citizens desire to see

TINE FOR MISSIONARY WORK.

An investigation shows that hundreds Of
colored couples are living together in this
city i'm open defiance of the law, and that
the evil is so shameful in its nature and
shocking in its results as to be disg race
ful to the better element of that race.
Its denoralizing effect on those Immediately
concerned is nothing compared to the ruin
it brings TO children, and immediate steps
should be taken to eradicate this evil.
Generally speaking, true reform is that
which changes conditions without dis
turbing social relations, or materially af-
fectIng commercial interests, for COM
munities caunot prosper except in a peace
fui atmosphere. But this is a field of
labor that demands steruer methods, and
these men and women who violate mar
riage laws should either be made TO marry
or abandon their shameless lives.
The social evil must be handled without
gloves. tits theoneo ffense for which thereis
no palliation. Nothing but severe measures
viii keep pitwithin bounds, and themorev vigor-
Gus the treatment in dealing with its in
siduous influence the greater viii be the
good accomplished.
The Edmunds law provides ample means
TO stamp out the disgrace of unlawful So
cial relations, and little missionary work
among those who violate it would soon
convince them OF their error. Couples who
can live together in peace and harmony out
OF wedlock would enjoy real happiness in
married life, and an effort should be made
10 convince them of this truth before they
longer disgrace themselves and this COM
munity.

BRIBErAKING coNGREss,aEN

The Times this morning publishes a
"reminiscences of the last Congress that
shows how useless 1t is for wage-earDers
to obtain favors from that body without
paying well for their bargain. 1t also
demonstrates the dlsiuterestedness of a
certain type ofCongressmen, who are moved
10 duty only when the magnet bears the
impress of the United States Mint.
The shame of it all is the apparent
necessity for wage-earners TO bribe legisla-
tors. There is humiliation enough in the
knowledge that some Cong ressmen are
corrupt, but when circumstances demand
blackmaH To obtain justice where justice
Is due, the disgrace is more keenIy to be
felt
It almost seems as il the entire District
dealing with the last Congress was a
question of bargain and sale. Legislation
that was needed for public good was re-
1ectcd on the ground OF lack of time,
while railroad and corporate interests
were given nearly all they demanded.
There is no need OF rehearsing the various
refusals of Congress to consider public
measures, nor is IT necessary to recount
the favors granted 10 street railways, the
gas company, and other corporations. The
public know ofthese facts only too well.
During the next session OF Congress
more united effort should be made to
promote District affairs. Cheaper gas
must be obtained, and the bills OF District
citizens must be protected from lobbying,
bribetaking Congressman. Insecuring this
legislation The Times proposes to take
a hand, and all it asks in return for its
efforts is the good will of the public.
