THE GULF STREAM.

European countries are favored
over other ports of the world by the
natural influences Of the upper Etesian
winds, the desert of Sahara and par
ticularly the Gulf stream. When the
Sahara was still sea, the climate of
of Southern Europe and Northern
Africa was many degrees colder than
at the present. Many thousand
years ago, before the Isthmus of
Panama hal been raised above the
level of the sea, the Gulf stream
flowed between North and South
America. That was the glacial
period in Northern Europe. Scan
dinavia and Finland were covered
with ice. Moose and reindeer abound
ed in Italy and Spain, and the south
of Europe was inhabited by race
similar to the Laplanders. The
Vosges and the Black forest were
covered by glaciers. Through the
rising of the Central American Is
thmus, the Gulf stream was turned
eastward and Europe emerged from
the ice period.
In how comparatively short time
the climate of a country can change
is proved by Greenland. which was
discovered 1913 years ago, and owes
its name to the verdant valleys and
blooming meadows which greeted the
eye of the first settlers. Even $50
years ago Greenland had over 200
towns and villages, and was a bish,
ops see. Through the elongation OF
the coral reef of Florida, the Gull
stream has turned more
toward the west coast of Europe, and
Labrador and Greenland have now
the climate of the Arctic circle. The
mean temperature of the most south
ern point of Greenland is the same
as that of Norway, 600 miles further
northward.
The DETECTION of the Gulf stream
will probably increase as the Florida
banks advance to finally join in the
Bahama, and Tortugas islands, and
the influence of the Gulf stream will
at least be lost to Northwestern Eu
rope, considerable lowering of tenn
perature, and general reaction il
the march of civilization on the east
ern continent. Some thousands O.
years will, however, elapse before this
can be accomplished.

IT, board themselves and do all they

only $27 for the year. Some of them
are christians, aud desire to prepare

INFORMATION ABOUT GAS.
The Board CT Trade Committee r.

The Board CT Trade Committee Re-
ferred to a Congregational Report.
The special committee of the board of
trade appointed to gather information in
regard to the cost, ETC., of public lighting
has received from the Washington and the
Georgetown Gas Light Companies replies
in response to the request for information.
Charles B. Bailey, the Secretary of the
Washington Gas Light Company, writes as
follows: s-''- -
I'VE beg to say that the points named in
your letter have all been covered by re-
cent congressional reports as the result of
the investigation into the cost and manu-
facture of gas, etc, IN the District OF Co.
iumbia; and as these reports are easily ac-
cesslble. and are very full, We beg to refer
you to them for the information you desire.
We allude to report No. GO, H. R., Fifty
second Congress, second session, and the
Senate of this last session, which, however
We nave not seen, but presume 1t Is in print
by this time"
The reply of Henry C. winship, the pres
1dent of the Georgetown Gas Light Com
pany, is substantially to the same. effect.
Mr. Winship says: IF you or the Washing
ton board of trade will avail yourselves of
this information, on file with the District
OF Columbia committee of the Senate of
the Congress Of the United States you will
secure everything We can report on with
reference to the cost of the manufacture
OIL gas in the District Of Columbia"

From the Detroit Free Press.
A short time since, as readers of The
Free Press will recall, there was published
in the New York Sun an atrocious attack
on Mr.. Noyes of The Washington Star, one
OF the directors Of the Associated Press,
the Sun being practically the head OF a
rival news gathering association. Swiftly
following this announcement came the
statement that Mr.. -Noyes, who resides in
Washington. had begun criminal prose-
cution in that city against Charles A.
Dana, proprietor and publisher of the Sun.
The Sun thus far has made no direct allu-
sion to the matter, either by way of apol-
ogy for the attack or defense of it: but for
some days it has been publishing, under
the caption, "A Great Principle Involved" :"
certain comments of its contemporaries in
different cities upon the alleged injustice
OF dragging Mr.. Dana to Washington" to
answer for an offense committed, if at all.
in New York city. 1t is perfectly obvious
that there is. as the newspaper defenders
of Mr.. Dana assumed. a principle involved.
though it is quite as obvious that Mr.. Dana
Is disposed to have the battle waged for
him by his friends over this principle, rath-
er than in. the courts over the exact ques-
tion whether he has been guilty of an
atrocious and baseless attack upon the in
tegrity of a citizen of Washington.
This inquiry suggests another of the great
principles" involved in the Dana case. Is
1t right that citizen of Washington. In
jured in his own home, IL anywhere. among
his neighbors and friends, should be COM
PEELED to seek his assailant in what is to
him foreign Jurisdiction? Neither ques-
ton is wholly free from doubt on ethical
or legal grounds. but the principle just re-
which Mr.. Darias friends have invoked in
his behalf. 1t is likewise just as well worth
which libels no man Intentionally and does
not seek to evadc any just liability.

preston. in the penal code of this state,

criminal law OIL the state. Section 249 pro-
vides that If a newspaper is prosecuted for
libel on, a person residing elsewhere than
in the county of publication, and the de-
fendant insists on having it tried In such
county, he must file sufficient bond with
two sufeties, Conditioned for the payment,

Wa. Not Obliged to Say 1t.

from tne Boston traveller
The indictment in Washington Of the
editor of the New York Sun for libel of a
citizen of Washington is being eagerly dis
cussed by some Of the newspaper press,
the prevailing opinion seeming to he that
Mr.. Dana should not be dragged away
from home. but the Indictment. if found at
all. should be in New York. where the Of
fense was committed. But there is some
thing to BIC said on the other side. Mr..
Dana was not obliged to say what is COM
planned of concerning Mr.. Noyes. He did
1t of his own motion. If it is hardship
on him to go hundreds of miles to defend
himself. is 1t any less a hardship that Mr..
Noyes should be forced to go hundreds of
miles to vindicate himself against u gra-
tuitous attack? It is no further from New
York to Washington than it is from Wash
iI4gton to New York. If anybody is to be
thus inconventenced why should 1t not be
the voluntary author Of the attack? AS to
this rule opening the way to many prose-
cutions for one act, that is all wrong. 1t is
one offense, and one conviction or one ac-
Quittal would end it.

A Herdfc Suggestion.

To the Editor Of The Evening STAR
AS the Herdic Company has recently re-
duced the fare to 3 cents. the travelling on
their coaches has greatly increased. A
coach leaves 10th and c streets southeast,
goes to 10th and Boundary and back to the
top of the Capitol grounds drawn by the
same team, where 1t meets an empty
coach, and transfers passengers who wish
to go northeast, then purusues its course
to the stables, from where it started, on q
perfectly level stretch.
Now, would it not be more humane, more
sensible, more everything compatible with
made that long, tiresome, trip. with its
numerous halts and strains to start again.
to have that same empty coach meet them
at the foot instead Of the top Of the hill,
and transfer the northeast passengers
there? 1t Is certainly much easier for that
empty coach to roll down the hill than 1t
Is for q crowded one to roll up. A number
Of pitiful sights can constantly be seen on
this steep concrete hill. especially on a
rainy day; horses slipping and falling. ris-
ing but to fall again. Frequently, with a
coach packed, with passengers standing. 1t

nue. and take on one or more humans. who
we'll know that few yards beyond it will
number vacate the vehicle 1 have fire.
SQuently seen a coach stalled on this hill,
the horses actually unable to move.
= This additional and wholly unnecessary
hardship upon the horses could easily and
simply be obviated by the company in
structing the drivers not to stop going up

A. Broad ns 1t Is Long.

Editor Dana of the Sun is receiving much
sympathy frcm those newspapers which
think it is not right to compel him to an
swer to a charge of libel in Washington
court. It looks to US to be about as broad
as 1t is long. Were the case to he tried in
New York, Mr.. Noyes. the man who claims
to have been libeled. must travel from
Washington to the metropolis to vindicate
his good name. AS Mr.. Dana was the in
stigator of the whole affair, it would seem
that if any Inconvenience is to be suffered
it is no more than right that he should be
the sufferer. AS to the merits of the charge
against the editor of the Sun, We must
