takes the ground that only the signatories

According 10 traditional policy, the United
States holds alcof from all European en-

no desire to play part ou the stage OF

are asked to arbitrate some difficulty be-

should not permit any government, be it
weak or strong, to preveat it from bringing
succor to American citizens whose lives or

been slow in coming. and his entire stock of
wealth had been reduced to few five-franc
notes and Il counterfeit SOU The sou was so
nalpsbly counterfeit that there was not the
slightest hope of passing it off. so that he
had really only the notes. So small a sum
was practically OF no use to him. SO he
decided riiher to gain more at the gaming
table or lose ali. So he went down To the
tables aud seated himself before the rouge

bet he made was lost. Finally he paid
out his last note. and was fumbling in his

Many times have The
Judges the Iolce court
censured policemen for this reckless and
unwarranted use Of their erolyers, and
the press of the city has also called
attention to what is nothing less than
an outrage, but the offenders have
been permittedto escape with rerrima nd,
or. at most, with a light fine. There is ah-
solutely no excuse for such action AN the
part Of a policeman. His revolver should
not be brought into action except here he
is compelled to defend hinscif againsi aS-
gravated assault, or where dangerous

Unnecessary and reckless use of firearms
is just as repreheusible in a Policeman AS in
a private citizen. The one is rs liable
to inflict irreparabie injury as the other.
In fact. as between the two, the policeman
is perhaps the less cXcusabic. for The rules
