BISHOP WILLIS makes the in
sinuating statement that, before
any listen to the argument that
the prohibitory opium law cannot
be enforced, they should make a
careful inquiry how the opium
finds its way into the country, and
whether the telescope by which the
smuggling should be detected is
not held to blind eye. Since by
the pleasant little back handed
compliment the good bishop pays
to Government officials, he gives
the impression that the smuggling
telescope is held to a blind eye, we
see other course for him to organize
a campaign to find out how opium
comes into the country. We
appreciate the bishops aver
sion to dabbling in anything
that has tinge of politics
about it, but under the circum-
stances his duty in the matter
seems to be very. clear. Let him
organize a telescope campaign
with every eye as clear as human
eyes can be made, and discover the
roads which opium travels. Hav-
ing located the lines of traffic it is
a very easy matter to block them,
and in so doing the. Bishop would
make his name forever honored in
Hawaii nei. Judging from his re-
marks we can but believe that the
path of glory and duty points the
Bishop to accept the Office of an
opium detective. If he will locate
the blind eyes, he will render this
Government a service that ought
to entitle him to a pension. Know
ing his love for the Government
we hardly see how he can with
hold his hand from this work.

THE data obtained by Commits
sioner Marsden in connection with
the canaigre industry is decidedly
reassuring. There is no question
that the canaigre root will grow in
this country, and what remains to
be proved is whether the soil will
yield product containing tannin
in proper quantities. The returns
indicate that profitable industry
can be built up, and that the
canaigre planters will receive good,
if not better, return for their labor
than is obtained in other countries.

NEW YORK STREET RAILWAYS

The Nixon Committee appoint
ed at the last session of the
New York Legislature, to
investigate the street railway
companies of the State have pre-
sented a report which may well
attract attention in this country as
well as the United States. The
committee took evidence in all
the leading cities of the State
which probably contains as many
miles of street railway as any State
in the Union. The first assertion
made is that railroads are quasi
public corporations, over which
the Legislature by wise and pru-
dent legislation should exercise
dominion and control. They are
creatures of statute and in the
manner of their organization, the
scope of their powers, their meth
DDS of issuing stock and the power
to create obligations, should be
clearly prescribed by law.
In the general change of nearly
all the roads during the past FIVE
years from horse railroads to cleo
trio, it is noted that the capital has
been increased much more than
was necessary to make the change.
The committee finds that in some
cases the companies are charged
with stocks, bonds and other in
deotedness ten times the actual
cost of construction and equip
ment. In almost every instance
the charges against the company
for capital stock issued and general
Indebtedness exceed by several
times the actual cost of the road
real estate, plant and equipment.
In this connection the committee
recommends that the capitalization
be limited to about so per cent.
above the actual cost.
One of the points in the report
that will doubtless precipitate sharp
discussion is the discountenanc-
ing municipal ownership of the
street railways. The position taken
however is more of reflection up
on the character OF municipal gov
eminent than a blow to municipal
ownership, as is evidenced by the
following wording of the report:
As our cities are now governed,
such ownership would convert the
enterprises into powerful political
machines detrimental to public
welfare. Possibly it may be we'll
some time for cities to build and
own the road bed, but the time is
not yet at hand"
When it comes to the disposal of
franchises, the committee does not |
believe that paying either a lump
sum or a percentage of the gross
receipts has proved satisfactory,
and the experiment of having COM
panies bid against each other by
offering a percentage of the gross
earnings is called a fasco. Making
the franchises perpetual is also de-
plored. The suggestion made to
the Legislature is that a bill be
passed providing for all franchises
to be sold by lease for stated pc
riod-not less than thirty years
at public auction to the company
the lowest rate of fare, and
that the lease provide for further
reduction in case the receipts JUS
lily it.

ELSIE KREGLO'S MURDERER.
Irving L. Ford Pays the Penalty on the
Scahold.

WASHINGTON, June 27.--Irving l..
Ford, the negro whose brutal murder of
Elsie Kreglo, on May 4 last, formed one
lice annals of Washington, was hanged
in the jailyard here at 1888 yesterday.
Ford made statement denying that
he had attempted to assault his victim.
Ford also expressed regret for the
murder, and claimed he had been under
the influence of liquor, and had not
known what he was doing when he
committed the crime. He was cool to
the last, and walked onto the scatfold
with firm step and stolid counte-
nance.
Ford's crime caused the greatest in
dignation in this city, and lynching was
talked of. His victim was q young
white country girl, about 16 years of
age, who lived with her parents about
20 mile from the city limits. She was
tending COW but short distance from
her home when accosted by her slayer,
who attempted to criminally assault
her. She desperately resisted him and
a terrific struggle between the two en-
sued, during which the negro cut sew
eral ugly gashes across her throat with
knife. The girls screams brought as
sistance from her family, who found her
bleeding and exhausted from the
wounds. She died almost Immediately,
without giving any information about
her assailant.
A number of arrests were made as the
surrounding country was searched by
posses of determined men, but it was
several days before the police succeeded
i'll obtaining clews that seemed to fasten
the crime on Ford. The latter managed
to get as far away as Harper's Ferry,
and after an exciting chase, during
which the prisoner jumped into the
river in an attempt to drown himself,
he was captured and brought to the city.
Here he was at first defiant and denied
everything, but finally confessed first
that he murdered the girl, and then
that he had made an effort to assault
her Ford was about 30 years old and a
man of low, brutal instincts.

lands scored four runs on an error, Il

home team then played for bases and
finally Weideman called the game.
This so enraged the Cleveland players
that several of them rushed at him and
began to shake him and use him rough.

and for a time trouble was expected.
The police dispersed the crowd and the
Cleveland players left the park. A

AKRON, O., June 27.-Judge Kohler
has decided to admit as evidence the
confession Of Romie Cotell that he MUIR
dered the Stone family. This confess
sion was made after six times in the
sweatbox. The defense held that the
influence of the minds of the detectives
and two attorneys who were present at
that time was felt by Cotell and he was
virtually hypnotized into relating a
story in accordance with the theory all
had.
This is most damaging to Cotell, but
he heard the decision of the court un-
flinchingly. His aged father sat with
bowed head and once or twice q groan
escaped him. The jury had been ex-
cused, but was now called in and De-
tective Doran took the stand and related
Cotells confession as made to him. 1t
developed that the boy was constant
reader of dime novels.

NIPPEO AT THE VAULT.
Burglars Had Nearly Finished stupen-

Los ANGELES, June 27.-The boldest
attempt at bank robbery ever made on
the Pacific coast has just come to light.
The object of the attack was the heavy
steel vault of the First National bank,
one of the largest financial institutions
of It's kind in southern California, and
to reach it the robbers dug tunnel l02
feet in length, extending from street
adjoining the First National and run
ming thence under the cellars of three
other banks.
This tunnel had progressed to point
directly beneath the vault when the po-
lice authorities were apprised of its ex-
istence. When the scheme was discov-
cred the burglars had begun to remove
the brick masonry supporting the steel
vault. The work is believed to have
been done by a gang of at least five or
six persons, but only one suspect
