THE SULTAN WARNED

The Substance of It Was That He En-

 the conniyauce of the Troops-More
 Kioting In the Galata Quarters.
 CoNsTANrMoPLE, Sept. L.-Rioting was renewed in the Galata quarter of this city Saturday night A sharp fusilade took place between the troops and the Armenian rioters. It lasted only few minutes, however, and a stampede of the revolutionists followed.
 The ambassadors of the foreign DOW CTS held conference and sent strong joint appeal asking the sultan to SUD- press the disorders without delay. This note failing to have the desired effect the representatives of the powers dis patched joint telegram warning the sultan that he endangered the Turkish empire by suffering the continuance of anarchy by the connivance of the i'm perial troops and the troops. It is said that the sultan trembled when he re- ceiyed this warning telegram.
 Neither the members of the diplo- matic circles nor rational observers doubt that an armed mob of Turks had been previously organized for possible riots. It was noticed that less than two hours after the insane attack on the Ot- toman bank by the mob that filled the streets at Galata overspread the whole city, and Turks in parties from l2o to l5o strong, apparently well organized and acting in concert, crossed in lighters from Stamboul.
 Stamboul has been covered with revo- lutionary placards, evidently posted by the young Turkey party. Serious trouble is expected today, the anniyer- gary of the Sultans accession.

While Going Up In His Balloon He Is
 Carried Among the Trees.

DENVER, Sept. 1.-Ivy Baldwin, the well known balloonist, was seriously if not fatally hurt by falling from his bal loon Sunday evening. Baldwin has been making weekly ascensions and parachute jumps in this city. The wind carried him into tree.

A year ago he joined the signal corps of the regular army and was appointed sergeant, ssrying under Captain Glassford, chief of the signal corps at Lincoln.

Mr.. Bryan In Miniature.

In The Stars interesting letter yesterday
from Boston the story of a Mr.. Winslow, a
candidate for the nomination for lieutenant
governor Of Massachusetts, in the contest
just decided, was told. His opponent. Mr.
Crane, was nominated by large majority.
Mr.. Winslow made hurrdh campaign.
He went on tour, and held receptions in
many of the towns and cities. Ids object
was to show himself to the people. and thus
to stir them up in his behalf. Presumably
he had good crowds at his receptions, AZ
was encouraged by their size. Otherwise
he would hardly have carried through such
programme But when 1t came to choos-
ing delegates to the state convention, the
places visited did not respond as Mr Wins
low desired, and had felt encouraged to ex-
pect. His opponent, who had remained at
home and was strong in the confidence of
the people. was preferred to him.
Then. according to the report. Mr. Wins
low lost his temper. He attacked the party
leaders in the state. calling them 'aristo-
Gratis and political tyrants.' and Urged
upon the rank and file to rise up and over
throw them. He tried to inaugurate small
revolution. Bat he failed. The people re-
fused to revoiute simply to put him in the
lieutenant governors chair. And in all
probability. in choosing Mr.. Crane. they
have acted with wisdom.
Is there not some likeness between Mr..
Winslcw and Mr. Bryan Their methods at
least are the same Mr. Bryan is another
hurrah candidate. He Is tour, showing
himself to the people and trying to stir
them up in his behalf. He is talking about
aristocrats." and ''tyrants.'' an1 money
kings" and trying to inaugurate a sort of
| revolution.
This sort of thing always deserves defeat,
and nearly always meets it. The candidate
ho in any stress of fortune raises the class
cry is no fit man for great responsibility.
The Chief Executive particularly of this
government can know no class without
violating his oath of office. He Is sworn 10

POOR, westerner or easterner, merchant or
farmer. The debtor and the creditor alike

engages to be. the representative Of all the

Divide the Naval Work.

Unless the mechanical equipment of the
Norfolk Navy Yard is far more made
quate than the official reports serve to in
dicate there appears to be no good rea-
son why Admiral Browns request for such
a division of the naval construction and
repair woIk as will give that yard its pro-
portionate share should not be granted.
The Norfolk yard is admirably To-
Gated for this kind Of service. being we'll
sheltered from the elements and having
easy access well to the sea. European
ma tions as a rule do not concentrate their
construction and repair work at single
places. for 1t is obvious that In the event
of invasion or domestic violence far more
damage could be done by a public enemy
to these Invaluable plants under the sys
tenn that now gives the New York yard
practically all the work on the Atlantic
coast than could be wrought were the
equipment divided among several ports.
The wreck of the New York yard under
present conditions would be such q serious
blow to the naval service that it is doubt
full whether the damage could be repaired
in any sort of season for coping with such
an en- ergency as might arise. This is the
practical view of the matter from the
navy's standpoint. but there is another
Phase OF the question, namely, tne TlSnt Oh
the public to have the money expended in
naval works divided among the various
communities fitted to perform such service.
Under the present system in vogue in the
navy in the employment of labor there is;

the expense of another than might have
arisen in former years. for the motto of

Receiver Schoepf's report to the courts
on the condition of the lexington ard Belt
roads contains such certain evidence OF the
value CT rapid traLsit from the stockhold-
ers' point of view that ii Is hna:ciai
marvel that the opportunities Tor sucn
equipment here should have been so per-
sistently neglected. Even with its incom-
pIete facilities the lexington earned a sur
plus OF from $40 to SO day before pub
lie opinion forced the abandonment of the
urban trolley. Naturally the substitution
OF horses instead OF a modern rapid transit
system caused falling-on even In the
net income. although the operating eN-
penses on horse basis are supposed to be
smaller, than under rapid transit conditions.
The dissatisfaction of the riding public
first caused a decrease of from $40 to 500
a day. Then the metropolitan road unSen-
erousiy subs tituted electricity for horses on
the line that generally parallels the city
branch of the lexington. and the receipts
again took fall. the deficit then averaging
S1iO a day. The same difficulty was ex-
perierced by the Belt management. AT no
time has this road been a rapid transit
basis so with its horse equipment i, has
always stood in direct competition with the
progressive corpora tions that have recog-
nfzed the need of Improvement and the
force of the public opinion against the over
head trolley. From the time that the
Washington and Georgetown road adopted
the cable system the books of the Belt line
showed a daily deficit of about Sl0O a
day and this discrepancy between receipts
and expenditures increased to $50 day
when the Ninth street branch of the Metro
politan contributed to tempt patrons away
from tie horse ear line of the Belt road.
1t is thus clear that the officials of the
Belt company have had at least five years
of experience in the business of losing
money in consequence OF the public preju-
dice against horse car transit in thesa
DAYS OF many methods of quick transporta-
ton by cable. electricity and other me
chanical means. They have had ample op-
portunity. 100. to learn that the mere ac-
Cessihility of street car line is not the
main factor in attracting patronage The
people in this age will generally walk sew

smoothly rather than avail themselves of
a horse car that takes them directly from
start to destination. let with these les

maintained the horse car service at loss,
in the hope. doubtless that the public pa
thence would dnally be exhausted to the

the enterprise of the other two trunk
lines OF the city the people have never been
so seriously Inconvenience by the per-
si5tent use of horses on the lexington and
Belt roads as to be tempted to invite trou-
BILE through the overhead trolley. Under
the circumstances there is little public
sympathy for the blind corporations that
now make such a poor showing in court.
