An Endless Chain

The United States sub-treasury was debtor
at the clearing house in New York last FRI
day in the sum Of over 81. 0OO. 900, all of which
1t paid In greenbacks. This large debit was
mostly made up Of checks for interest due
on United States bonds, and thus a strange
spectacle is presented. Greenbacks paid
out In liquidation of the interest on former
treasury obligations Immediately became
available for use to withdraw gold from the
treasury and to increase the necessity for
other bond issues which perhaps will in turn
be the cause of other debit charges against
the sub-treasury for interest. Here on a
small scale Is the endless chain," of which
the Secretary of the Treasury and the Pres
ident complain. The operations against the
Treasury, followed by operations ostensibIy
for its relief, are confined to the great money
center of the country. The people have no
desire to demand gold for their greenbacks
Not being In the business Of squeezing the
treasury dry and then refilling it at a tire
mendous profit, the people themselves are
content to take the word Of the government
and to place their faith In It's promises to re-
deem its outstanding non-interest bearing
obligations whenever the necessity may
arise. This Is the difference between the
honest creditor of the government and the
Spectator who takes advantage of the fact
that the treasury is running on a narrow
margin Of revenues and needs frequent re-
Punishment.

A Pound Party.

The Evening Star Santa Claus Club will
give pound party in few days for the
benefit of the poor. This organization has
done effective work In the past In relieving
distress and suffering, and 1t Is to be called
into service again this season to swell the
supply Of materials for distribution among
those who are In want. 1t Ia not known
as yet what day viii be chosen for the
win be made In ample season to give every
oooy who so desires chance to contribute
Last year The Star held open house one
winter day and a great room was COM
pieteiy filled with supplies of all kinds,
which were afterward distributed In an
effective manner by the established charf-
table agencies. In fact. The Stars pound
party OF % was a tremendous success,
and 1t has passed into local history as
great outpouring of all kinds Of valuable
goods and materials, and hearty response
to call for aid. The Santa Claus Club
Is to have charge this year of a similar
affair, and 1t should produce even greater
success than that of a year ago. Pounds
OF every sort of article Of food, loads of
fuei, anything in the form of material re-
quired by human life will be gratefully re-
ceived So all prepare now to give gen.
erously when the pound party is held, and
every one work hard for a great result
that will place the poor of the District out
OF immediate want. Those who give NAV
rest assured that every pound will be dis
trfouted in the most effective manner DOS
slbie, and that every donation will be made
OF practical benefit to the poor without
delay.

Despite the fact that they are not recog-
nized by this or any other government as
having belligerent rights, the Cuban In
surgents appear today to be in practical
control of the entire island except the large
cities on the coast. They have surrounded
Havana, the capital, and though that city
Is strongly fortified and protected by land
and sea from invasion and capt ire, the
FEELING appears to prevail inside the line Of
defenses that the city Is in a state of siege.
This has been accomplished by superior
generalship on the part Of the insureent
leaders. So far the fighting has been con-
lined to small skirmishes, and the rebel
leaders have managed to avoid any great
battles. Though the advices from the is
land are not wholly reliable, being subject
to official censorship when from the cities
and to the bias Of partizanship when from
1nsurgent sources, there Is no doubt that
the success Of the insurgents In pushing
forward to Havana has greatly stimulated
the enthusiasm of their friends and has
brought thousands Of recruits to the reyo-
lutionary cause. The contagion Of insur-
gent success and enthusiasm appears to
nave swept the island from end to end.
Inc war mas cost Spafn dearly, not only In
men and the means for conducting it, but
In the loss Of revenue from her richest col
ony, which is greatly impoverished by the
devastation of instruction. Rich planra-
lions have been ruined, and the influence
for peace of their owners has become
powerful. 1t is hardly to be expected that
Havana, with its powerful defenses, will be
captured by the rebels, but they have now
secured position from which they can
soon ask for foreign recognition with some
measure of justice

The Need of Present Generosity.

Generous and charitable Washngtonians
should not wait for formal appeal to be
made to them by the Emergency Relief
Committee before giving freely and cheer
fully to the poor who are now suffering for
food, fuel and clothing. Money and material
given now, in the stress of weather that pre-
walls, will be of much more service than If
given later, when the temperature has re-
turned to the normal Soon the snow will
come to add to the misery of those who have
no employment and no means. SYSTEM
attic canvass of the city is eventually pro-
ductive of the best results, and it is the only
sure means of thoroughly reaping the
harvest of charity, but many who can give
and are so disposed require no more than a
hint that there is need for aid in order to be
stimulated to commendable generosity.
There Is no lack of guarantee that the
money and materials given to the proper
agencies win be expended with the best
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1896-01-06

results. Many people prefer to do their own
alns-giving, and to bestow their charity
upon those known by them personally. This
Is highly commendable, but If done without
any regard whatever to the work of others
1t may lead to a wasting Of funds and ma
terials. for Implications are always possible
In such large city. It is well for those who
are pleased to personally superintend the
distribution Of the money or goods they de-
vote to charity to work in cooperation with
central agency. so as to conserve all the
means available. Other people prefer to
work directly through such agencies, giving
generously to the main fund and leaving the
details Of distribution to those trained in
such work. The hearty and harmonious
support Of both classes Is necessary when
ever the voice of the poor is heard calling
for help, and 1t will surely be given now.

The Call for Bonds.

The administration has made a concession
In issuing cali for popular" loan, to
take the form Of four per cent bonds run
ming Twenty-Five years from February {
next. There Is no doubt that there was
great apprehension among the people lest
the Treasury should once again fall into
the hungry NAV Of Wall street, and the at
mosphere for some days has been heavy
with a feeling Of discomfort. The invitation
for bids to be opened at the Treasury De-
partment disarms those critics of the ad-
ministration who feared that there was to
be another private sale Of bonds. The in
PRODUCTION Of the usual clause into the cir
cular reserving the right to reject any OF
all of tie bids leaves 1t possible for the De
partment to give all the bonds to syndi-
cate Of bankers at its own terms If 1t sc
prefers. But this clause is regarded as q
necessary safeguard, and 1t is difficult to
plan any issue of bonds with the expecta-
ton Of reducing the interest charge by en-
couraging the payment of premiums sc
that the securities will be taken by the
people, and not by the bankers. So it re-
mains to be seen whether the loan will in
effect be popular or not.
There Is slight reason on the surface for
dating the bonds a year back, so as to
make them run twenty-nine instead of
thirty years. While this reduces the to-
tai interest charge by upward Of $1,000. 600.
it also reduces the market value Of the
bonds and may have a depressing effect
upon the bids. The clause that looks to
the issue of other bonds under the opera
tons Of an act of Congress that may Re
forthcoming before February 5 has the eff
feet Of multiplying any possible legislation
except in the direction of increasing the
public debt to the extent Of the second is
sue, at a reduced rate of interest, 1t may
be. In view of this fact it is difficult to
perceive how this announcement by Sec.
rotary Carlisle will hasten legislation.

It Is great waste Of energy for the
International Arbitration and Peace Asso-

tons to this city for the ostensible purpose
Of inducing President Cleveland to SO
modify his attitude On the Venezuelan
matter that it may be submitted to arbi-
tration- President Cleveland has taken no
steps that call for such expressions from
abroad. He desired arbitration and his
policy has been to place on England the
burden of granting or denying this reason

Ensland's Great Opportunity
From the New York Tribune.

Now, momentous and ominous as the pres
emit situation is for Great Britain, it also
offers such an opportunity for advantage as
comes to a. nation but once in a century. A
frank recognition by the British Govern
ment of the facts developed by Mr.. Norman
at Washington. and diplomatic action in
accordance Herewith, would in a moment
reduce this whole Venezuelan dispute to the
level of simple and perfectly friendly
business negotiation. 1t would disarm ali
hostile criticism and restore between Great
Britain and America these friendly and sym-
pathetic relations which formerly existed,
end which were disturbed only by a decision
of the British Government, which one of
the best informed of British authorities now
declares to have been unjustifable and I'M
warranted. 1t would be the recognition and
rectiffcation of an error, not which we have
charged against them, but which the British
themselves have discovered.

This Rule Britannia seems to take
Somehow a minor strain
The song which causes lands to quake
And soothes the raging main.

A note of helpless lingering woe,
For Johnny wants the moon.
In Africa and Asia wide
He has playground fair;
But still he pines, dissatisfied,
For merry sport elsewhere.
Amid the playthings which around
His ample home are strewn,
In srievous mood the lad is found,
For Johnny wants the moon.
