THE Neutrality-suspicious. AFFAIR.

Admiral Meade retires from active
service in the navy, and Minister
Hazelton is trying to prevent his own
retirement from our diplomatic serv-
ice. The two events are merely syn
chronous, and unrelated except in a
distant way, not clearly percepuble;
more an association than a relation.
Intense officialism in the one came
in touch with conviviality in the other,
and the result is that Admiral Meade
is in bad odor in the department of
the navy, and Minister HaZelton is
trying to have his dismissal revoked.
& The trouble seems largely traceable
to the initiation of his sense of i'm
portance that advancement in rank
caused in the admiral. 1t is not
given to all men to bear promotion
and wear high rank as modestly
and simply as did Farragut in the
navy and Grant in the army. Shakes
peare has noted the fantastic tricks
some men cut who are clothed with a
little brief authority, and simplicity
has always been accounted quality
of the truly great. Sometimes con-
scious littleness cIoaks itself, when po-
sition gives it chance, with arro-
gance to subordinates, deficiency in
quality hiding itself behind a use of
authority.
However this may be, the admiral
seems to have become impressed with
an overestimate of his Importance
An interview in New York that got
into the papers and to the ears of
the navy department officers indicates
this. His opinion that the admins
tration was un-Ameriean and unloyal
as compared with himself Shows the
initiation of his self-importance as
well as it indicates a disposition that
would make his relations to subordi-
mates not Of the pleasantest.
On the other hand, Minister Hazel
ton seems to have had a sense of
the proprietfes of diplomacy and the
amenities Of the intercourse Of ad-
mirals and plenipos and foreign gov
ernmental officials that did not and
could not dovetail with the estimates
the admiral had of his own rank, his
dignity and his Importance. Minister
Hazelton had his training in the school
of practical politics, where it is the
proper caper to be complacent and
sociable with every one. Possibly
he regarded our navy as sort OF ma
tional travelling exposition, roaming
the oceans to exhibit its ships and
officers to the admiring gaze of the peo-
pies of the world and to the respectful
gaze of the dignitaries of the world.
aAnyhow, when the squadron COM
manded by the admiral steamed ma
jestically into the Venezuelan harbor
Minister Hazelton proceeded to make
the stay of the admiral and his officers
agreeable after the fashion in vogue
among the elite of Vernont's politi-
clans. He drove the admiral around
from plenipo, to plenipo, and from
secretary for this to secretary for
that, introducing him and his staff
right and left, and, generally, doing
what, from his standpoint, was the
proper thing to do with the distin-
guished visitor. It is understood
he also gave party or ball as sort

A BIG ENTERPRISE.

A palpable evidence of the willing.
ness of capital to entrust itself once
more 10 the prosecution of great en-
terprises is the actual beginning of
work upon the great dam below the
Falls of st. Anthony. The idea of this
was preached nobody knows how
many years ago. 1t has remained ever
since one of the splendid possibilities
which people talked Of occasionally
rs likely to be realized, but which
never came any nearer to the line Of
actual fact. 1t was revived a few
years ago, but capitalists were still
nnready to embark in the enterprise
Now, however, a force of men is
actually at work, and their num-
Der will be increased until hundreds
are engaged on the big dam which it
Is supposed will take two years to
complete. This is one of the most
tangible and certain evidences of the
Improvement Of business conditions.
The completion of this work will
harness mighty power now run
AIltS ~ WASTE. Int LID ICl dSNSlOp-
ment of the country has reached
point where we can no longer tolerate
such a squandering of resources. AS
soon as it was demonstrated to rea-
sonable satisfaction that the great
tunnel at Niagara could be made
commercially successful, the money
was forthcoming to build it. And now
the immense sum required to COM
plete this work on the Mississippi
has been secured by the proof that
1t will win satisfactory returns. The
undertaking will be of great benefit
tcSGoth cities. A large quantity of
lele labor will find employment, and
the expenditure of so much money
during SO long q time will enliven and
enrich local trade. But the most inter-
esting reflection is that no one can pre-
dict now, at the beginning, exactly
what will be the uses and the value
of the work when completed. The
power that will develop can be cal
culated; but, 50 rapid is the march
of invention, that no one can tell how
much more advantageously that pow
er can be used and how much more
widely it may be distributed by the
end of the two years in which the
dam is expected to reach completion.
We venture to say that, when that
time arrives, the conditions will have
so changed that the undertaking will
be more profitable than was dreamed
of to its projectors, and that the en-
ergy thus drawn from the falls of
the Mississippi viii be of enormous
value to the development of industry
and the increase of comfort in both
of these cities.

INCOME TAX PROBABILITIES.

The tenor Of the advices from Wash
ington is to the effect that the supreme
court. which. consists in this case Of
Mr.. Justice Jackson, will sustain the
income tax, probably on the lines Of
the original decision. While it is i'm
possible to ascertain this positively in
advance of the formal and public find
ings of the court, all the indications
look in that direction and all the cor
respondents appear to be of the same
opinion. The fact that they were able
to publish in advance the exact terms
of the original decision makes it prob
able that they are equally correct in
this instance. It is, indeed, what has
been generally expected. Justice Jack
son has, of course, refrained carefully
from doing or saying anything that
would disclose the position which he
was likely to take; but his known
sympathies are on the side of holding
the law constitutional, and, as the rest
of the court is equally divided, his vote
will be conclusive.
1t is not worth while to trouble our
selves any longer about the theory
of the income tax, since 1t will now
present itself to the people in practi-
cal aspect. The singular finding Of the
court eXempts certain kinds of in
comes which congress intended to tax;
and, no doubt, if the latter had antici-
pated any such mangling Of the law
by judicial decree, it would have aban-
doned the whole project rather than to
lay an impost on small fixed salaries,
while letting the incomes from enor-
nous landed estates escape scot free.
The law, as it will probably be in eff
feet from Monday next, will be law
made by the court, and not by con-
gress. AS such, it must be enforced
until the representatives of the people
can ta're up the subject again, and
conform the law to the principles Of
justice and the demands of equal taxa
ton.
In the meantime, about the only in
terest attaching to it is it's probable
value as producer of revenue. The
outside estimate Of receipts, with real
estate and bonds exempted, is 500, 000,-
| 900. A more conservative figure puts
it at $15,0O0,0G0. AS the treasury had
counted upon from $4,000, 600 to $780,
100000 of income from this. source, the
change will leave considerable def
icit. 1t is not believed, however, that
| this will sensibly enlbarrass the gov
| ernlnent, since the receipts from other
sources are increasing so ranifllv with
the general Improvement in trade that
| they will soon make UP the difference.
| AS for the income tax itself, that is
| left such thing Of shreds and patches
! as to be equally unsatisfactory to those
who originated It and to those who op-
pose it. 1t will be the business Of the
next congress TO lake up the subject
and either repeal The law altogether

HOTEL MEN LEGIsLATE.
Annual Convention of Mutual Ben
eft Association.

eht
NEW YORK, May 14.-PreSident
E. A. Thayer called the sixteenth an
nual convention of the Hotelmen's Mu-
tuaI Benefit association to order to-
day in a banquet hall of Delmonico's,
there being about 400 delegates pres
ent. The report of Secretary and Treas
urer Walter Burns, of Chicago, Showed
a balance of $10,296 in the trasury,
the disbursements for the year having
been $26,564 1t was decided to recon-
mend to the board of directors, who
meet in Chicago Saturday, that the
mortuary benefit be increased from
81, 200 to 81 1,500. A proposition to admit
stewards and club managers to mem
bership was defeated. 1t is proposed
to institute agitation for the repeal Of
the present excise tax and for uni
form legislation in all of the states re-
garding hotel affairs. Benjamin Yard,
Of Arverne by the Sea, was elected
president of the association without
opposition. The other officers chosen
are: Vice president, George w. Lynch,
Of San Diego, CAL; secretary and
treasurer, Walter Burns, of Chicago;
directors, Charles Hilton, L. E. How
ard, Jewett Wilcox, F. w. Rice, E. S.

In A. VAIN CHASE.
Funny story About NameIess st.
Paul Couple.

q
A Chicago paper prints a special dis
patch from New York, telling of an
exciting chase after the Umbria by a
gentleman and his wife from st. Paul.
They were to sail on the Cunarder,
but when they reached the slip they
found the steamer in the middle of the
river, sliding rapidly down toward the
bay.
The woman looked as if she was GO
ing to faint, and the man, who. though
little, was big in activity, promptly
shouted:
Here's a tug; let's get her in a
hurry and catch the steamship
In a jiffy he had bargained with the
captain of q tugboat lying at the end
of the pier. Then the woman objected;
the tug was. too small; she was tired
out; she couldn't climb up the side OF
the Unibria without everybody laugh
ing at her; she. would rather miss go4
ing with her friends and forfeit the
ticket money.
The little man fused. the tugs skip
per said a. mean thing about women in
general, and meantime the Umbria was
rapidly getting it's nose around in the
direction CT the upper bay. AT last
the woman yielded, and showed that
she had sailor blood in her veins by
walking narrow plank set between
the pier and the tugs upper deck. Off
went the consequential little craft and
it's belated couple, and just as the slip
was cleared the Umbria started ahead.
A grand race then ensued. The tugs
whistle was kept blowing like a
thousand demons to attract the atten-
ton of the steamship officials. The
tug meanwhile forged ahead, but, un-
fortunately for the couple aboard, the
Umbria was doing the same thing.
Down the North river the leviathan
and pigmy Travelled, the distance be-
tween them growing greater all the
time.
But the tugboat captain never lost
hope. He kept that whistle going like
small boys voice in marble time:
and every craft on the river with the
exception of the Umbria heard the ap-
peal. There wasn't any bow chaser on
the tug, or the angry captain might
have hailed the Cunarder a la Allianca.
1t was vain chase, though and when
the Battery was reached it was aban-
doned. The woman was hysterical
when landed and her escort lit cigar
and tried to appear philosophical
When 1t came to settling accounts
the tugboat captain broke the worlds
record and a thousand others. He
simply paralyzed his passengers who
were said to be from ST. Paul, by
simply refusing to accept cent for the
attempt he had made to get them on
board the liner. The captains sport
ing blood was long cooling down.
I'm too rolled to take anything" he
said firmly. But I'll tell you one
thing. 1 could lick every one of the
whole 23O of the Umbria's crew and
the captain in the bargain"

AT THE THEATERS.

Kellar, the great American magi-
clan, played to another good audience
at the Metropolitan opera house last
night. Kellar has undoubtedly at
tanned first place as a magician in
this country. His feats are marvellous
and quite beyond any explanation.
He will be at the Metropolitan the bal
ance of the week, giving a matinee Sat
urday at popular prices.
Chevalier Cliquot, the gentleman who
takes pleasure in swallowing sharp
twenty-two-inch swords, arrived in the
city yesterday, and will appear next
week at the Metropolitan with the AL
hambra Vaudevilles. Cliquot, who is
not over five feet and a half high,
happened to meet DR.. Hoyt yesterday,
and in conversation the doctor said
that he couldn't quite understand how
it was possible for such a small man
to swallow such a large sword. He
was rather astounded when Cliquot re-
marked that he could swallow four
teen of the big sharp knives at the
same time. In order to convince the
skeptical ones that the blades of the
swords do not telescope into the
handles and that there is absolutely
no trickery about the performance,
Cliquot will give a private exhibition
before party of physicians and news
paper men at the Hotel Ryan tomor-
row afternoon at 4:30 o'clock
More than usual interest in local the
atricals has been aroused by the an
nouncement that Giffen & NeilTs stock
company will present at the Grand
next week, BARLEY CampbelIs cele.
brated play ''The Galley Slave" 1t
was the authors first great success,
and although produced more than a
dozen years ago, is still being pre-
sented on the road with great sue
cess. 1t is full of strong dramatic sit
uations and bright, sparkling comedy.
It's scenes are laid in continental Eu-
rope,and offer fine opportunity for hand,
some stage setting and effects. 1t has
been admirably cast, and will bring
out the company in it's entirety.
There will be a matinee perform
ance at the Grand today. Mr.. Gen.
Tom Thumb is the attraction. This
little celebrity has surrounded herelf
by a clever company of Lilliputians,
presenting several one-act slkits and a

is very popular with women and chill

TO SETTLE THE QUESTION.
Commons Appoints Committee
to Determine Status of u Peer.

LONDON, May 1.-THE chance lor
Of the exchecquer, Sir William Vernon
Harcourt, in the house of commons to-
day moved the appointment of a spec
ial committee to consider the question
raised by the Earl of Selborne yester-
day as to whether a peer of the realm
can sit in the house of commons after
having succeeded to the house of lords,
or wheteher peer of the realm can be
elected to membership of the house of
commons. The Right Hon. A j. Bal
four seconded the motion and the
Right Hon. Joseph Chamberlain, the
Unionist leader, moved an amendment
to the effect that the case of Sir James
Morse Carmichael, member for the ST.
Rollo division of Glasgow, a baronet,
who claims several dormant Scotch
peerages, be also considered. The
motion of Mr.. Chamberlain was re-
jected and that of Sir William Vernon
Harcourt was adopted by a vote of
$50 to 143.
