GIANT GILBERT'S BODY.
Scranton Friends DO Not Know About
Ills Burial Here.

Ills Burial Here.
Late last night the body of Colonel
William Gilbert, ''The Dahomey
Giant" had not arrived in this city,
nor could 1t be ascertained when the
remains would be brought here.
Gilbert lived here several years ago
and was at one time a special policeman
in the old Arcade. He was, up to the
time of his death, on exhibition. in
Worth's New York museum and died
in that city early Friday morning. His
wife announced that burial would be
made in Scranton.
DR.. II. N. Dunnell, captain of the
First regiment, Uniformed rank,
knights of Pythias, of which organiza-
tion the deceased was member, COM
municated with the New York under
taker, but received no definite reply.
The giants Scranton friends anticipate
the arrival of the remains today.

LICENSES AND LANDLORDS.
Possibly the Latter May Seize the Former
Today.

Fifteen liquor licenses only have not
been issued out of the total number
granted, and for licenses taken out Sat
urday, nominally the last day for such
purpose, the county treasurer received
$35,275.
1t is argued that because of Saturday
being half-holiday and the interven-
ing of Sunday the court will permit IL
censes to be issued today. 1t is re-
ported that several landlords will to-
day assume licenses which applicants
failed to call for.

There was no truth in the report.

Since The Times began publishing its
sworn circulation statements, cries Of
distress have from time TO time been
heard from the camps nf its competitors.
But it was only when the strongest rival
was overtaken and disianced in the race
for popularity that underhand methods
which would not be tolerated in ordinary
business transactions, were called into use.
The numerous merchants who haze been

of the fire department as is recommended
by the Commissioners is not to be regarded
as gratnity, but as a equitable conces-
sion to the work they are called upon to do
and the risk they incur in doing it. In
comparIsn with the salaries prevailing in
other departments OF the District Gov
ernment those of the fire department are
very meagcr, and are considerably less
than those paid in the ma jority of the
large cities of the country. Inasmuch as
there is no official pension fund from
which TO provide for a fireman who may
be crippled while doing his duty, or for
his family in case death should uvertake
him, there is all the more reason for max
ing his salary large enough To enable him
to lay up something against such a contin-
gency, or for his declining years in case he
should grow old and worn in the service.
As for the additional apparatus, engine
houses and such equipment as is incidental
thereto, enough has been said heretofore.

COMFORT FOR CrBA.


The day is come ard the hour when the
people of the District of Columbia viii
give expression to their sentiments regard
ing the struggle now being made by the
people of Cuba to free themselves from
the iron yoke of Spain. There is good
ground for the belief that the Spa nish
government, through its diplomatic rep
rcseutatlve here, has entered Il formal
protest against this meeting and has
sought to induce the President, or State
Department TO use what power or influ-
ence they may to prevent it, and thus
interfere with the constitutional right
of public assembly. In this circumstance
lies all the more reason for a great gather
ing. A cause that, like spain's, cannot
bear the strain of public discussion, is
condemned by that very fact.
A meeting of this kind in Washington
differs from those of like character in
any other city in the United States, be-
cause Washington contains citizens Of
every State ard Territory of the Union
and they give voice, in a measure, TO the
feelings, sentiments, and sympathies of
their friends at home. The expression.
therefore, which will emanate from to-
nights assemblage, will be of greater
Significance than any that have yet been
made and the resolutions that may be
adopted will find their echo in every city,
town, village, and hamlet of the United
States. To Cuba's struggling patriots
they will not only bear message Of greet
ing, and sympathy, but the assurance that
their cause has found advocates and sup
porters in the very heart of this nation.
More accurately and more fully than of
any other meeting that has been, or may
be held, will the proceedings of this one
be reported to the Madrid government.
Two of the leading journalists Of Spain
will advise the government and people of
Spain as to who spoke, what was said,
and what was the temper of the people
who listened. Because of these facts,
tie sense of the meeting ought TO be ex-
pressed in language that will leave no
doubt in the minds of the Spaniards that
the people of WashiDgt on, who, in no
inconsiderable degree, are representative
Of the people of the United States, are
with Cuba and the insurgents heart and
soul, hope and pray for their success, and
will do all that citizens may do, without
compromising the International obliga-
tions Of their government, to give aid and
comfort to the Cuban cause.

Il. & o. DEATH TRAPS.

The accident at the street cross
ing of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad
yesterday puts in glaring light the un-
spcaEable disregard of the Baltimore and
Ohio Company for the security Of human
life. AT that crossing is neither flagman nor
gate, and the approach of trains that
scurry past there is not even made known
by the whistle of the engine. That there
was no loss of life is entirely due to the
| circamspection and presence of mind OF
the driver of the wagon, who was enabled
to throw his vehicle around just in time
to be saved from the impact of the rush
ing train, though the poor animal was
badly mangied. 1t is reported that the only
remark made by General Agent Alvey,
when the owner of the horse and wagon
reported the matter TO him, was: "Send
in your BILL
1t is one OF the characteristics OF cor
pnrations like the Baltimore and Ohio road
to believe, or affect to believe, that they
have done their duty when they offer
To pay for damage done to property. Life
they hold but cheaply, unless impressed by
+
ly heavy verdict. There is but one way
TO change them. The law must be as
stern as they are obstinate. Whether by
executive authority or by legislation, they
must be made to understand that they are
the servants of the public, not its master,
and the lesson should be rigidly enforced
upon them.
This affair shows the need OF some
thing more than the issuing of orders on
the part of the Commissioners. They must
be enforced as well. II, for instance, in
the r street crossing case, il can be proved
that the train approached without whist
ing, and that this is the custom, there
should not be so much as n days delay
in bringing the officials of the road into
the police court. The place is especially
as freight cars continually line
the tracks there to such an extent and
in such manner as to obstruct the
view of approaching trains to those about
TO cross the street in vehicles.
The fatality which yesterday was hap
PLY averted, may occur any day If the
Baltimore and Ohio Company is not com

OUR FIRE DEPARTMENT.

In their estimates to be submitted to
Congress the Commissioners have sundry
items relating to an increase of the fire
department, and also an increase of the
pay of the men. On both these points
st would be difficult TO find good ground
for objection, save in the minds of some
congressman who seek to gain little
cheap notoriety among their constituents
by opposing all appropriations for the
District, because. as they say, their peo-
pie have no business being taxed for the
support of the people of the District OF
Columbia. 1t would be expecting too much

COMEDY AND MINsTRELsY.
They Are Combined In Cupid Cha riot
af AlIeu's

"Cupid's Chariot" a queer combination
OF modern farce comedy and modern
minstrelsy, had an initial performance at
Aliens Grand Opera House last night
rue names OF RayInon Moore and George
Thatcher are alone enough TO draw an
average sized audience and the people who
are associated with them in the uniQueenter-
ialnTnent should also come in Ior lihge
share of consideration.
The bicycle race and trick riding of Mr..
Richie were new features 10 Washington
and were highly appreciated. The min
streisy part OF the programme was well
taken care of by George Thatcher and five
aids. 'Cupid's Chariot" should do a large
business during the remaining three nights
and the Saturday matinee.
