BAD FOR PRINCE GEORGE.

less War Material.

Brindisi, Italy, Nov 11.-Letters re-
ceived here today from Athens say that
the torpedo scandal continues to be
the sensation of the Grecian capital.
The basis of this scandal was the
discovery that all the cartridges fitted
to the torpedoes during the war with
Turkey were not provided with per-
cussion caps and Illuminating mer-
curry and that therefore they would
have been useless in case they We're
needed.
Prince George of Greece, who COM
manded the torpedo fleet during the
war, and who was, previous to the war,
a great favorite with the masses, is
known to be deeply affected by the
scandal and by the attacks made upon
him and upon the royal family gen
orally in consequence of this fresh
example of unpreparedness of Greece
for an outbreak of hostilities.

The State

Yesterday the campaign of 1897 began
In the Empire State with Judge WALLAoE's
acceptance of the Republican nomination
for Chief Judge of the Court of Appeals, the
only State officer to be elected this year.
Judge WALLACE spoke with dignity of the
separation Of partisan politics from the
, bench, but ne justly recognized the fact
that he had been chosen to lead the Re-
publican party because of his thorough and
: pronounced accord with its principles,
among which the one now most resplen-
dent was thus described:
at esteem It an inestimablep privilege to have been
associated with the Republican party through those
recent perilous days, when the rights OF property and
che interests OF honest labor, the just claims OF public
and prfyato creditors. the supremacy of law. and the
found ations o. social order found It their bulw ark of
defence"
Judge WALLACE sounds the keynote for
the campaign in every State about to elect.
It calls upon Republicans to rouse them
selves to hold the ground won in 1895, and
20 Gold Democrats to cease from following
their will.o .the-wisp, and to come to the
support of the principles Of the st. Louis
platform.
II WALLAoE's majority over PARKER
should be greater in the State of New York
than MoKINLEY's over BRYAN, 1t would
be O national blessing.

the present case, or flowing from the OPP
pressive conditions imposed by successive
governments, whose tyrannical rule in the
"sister isle" Is one Of the blacklist chapters
In the history of the century. In this way
millions OF American money ave gone into
the pockets of Irish landlords and helped
to support those so.called aristocratic
classes, many of whom, had this stream of

happy victims of their misrule and rapac.
ity. 1t may be that history is again to re.
peat itself so far as Ireland and the United
States are concerned, and that, in the clos
ing months OF the vociferous jubilee year,
the spectacle will be witnessed of America
feeding the starving Irish subjects Of
Queen VICTORIA while they vainly cry to
the callous Lords and Commons for relief.
In view of the remarkable report of the
Royal Commission on the question Of the
fiscal relations of Ireland to England, made
exactly a year ago, the memorial Of Mr..
DILLON and other Irish members, asking
for financial relief, has a solid basis of
Justice to support 1t. That report showed,
by indisputable facts and figures, that Eng
luhu, III lOldtlOu vi bOltulh tTtdUy ODllBa-
tions, was exacting from Ireland upward of
thirteen millions of dollars annually in ex-
cess Of her equitable contribution to the
British treasury. It was still further
pointed out that this system Of pillage,
under the form of taxation, had been In
operation ever since the Act Of Union,
nearly a century CO..
Surely, it is not too much to ask now
that a small fraction of this vast sum shall
be refunded to the starving people from
whom it has been flched. Every principle of
Justice requires hat this restitution be
made by England. If, however, she cannot
be moved by either a sense of justice or by
motives Of humanity, a regard for her own
standing in the eyes of the world, as a
nation, should prompt her to give up some
of her ill.gotten millions.

Tho Social Revolution.

What Is this Henry George movement
which Is sweeping over this community,
bearing along with its flood the wreckage
of the politically rotten Tammany Halle
1t is the social revolution, the coming Of
which has been long heralded to all dis
corning intelligence. Last year it spent its

thar in the great centres Of population In

This year it is far more dangerous, because
1t breaks out here in the greatest and most
crowded city of America.
Bank p%arlors, counting rooms, church
vestries, p~arsonages, clubs, drawing rooms,

A New Battle of yorktown.

The report which Admiral SIoARD has
just made to Secretary Lone deals with his
operations in a sham battle of Yorktown,
or, rather. Of Gloucester Point, IN the op-
posite shore of York River. A ~favorite ex.
ercise of our citizen soldiers in the period
before the civil war was q simulated sur.
render of the British at Yorktown, and 1t
Is with full appreciation Of this annual
evolution that one of the characters in tho
"Biglow Papers" though arguing against
the military calling in general, admits that
there is fun to a Corvallis"
But those militia were with
land forces, whereas it was battalions from
the armorclads New York, Maine, and
Admiral SIcARD's mannuvres ashore, and
battalions from the Brooklyn, Iowa, Massa-
chusetts, and Indiana that attacked them.
AS to the result, the assailants, according
to the decision Of the umpires, had the best
of 1t, the defenders being driven ~northward
about two miles.
These shore evolutions of landing bril-
gades from the squadron not only form a
good variety in Its drill, but are really of
high value from the character of the work
our navy is often called upon to perform.

island the genuine autonomy possessed by
the inhabitants of Canada and Australia.
The war, however, will be carried on
probably with less butchery and wanton
devastation on the part Of the mother
country. The overtures which Mr.. WooD-
FORD has been instructed to make,
which, it Is believed, embody an offer to
guarantee an indemnity for the surrender
of Cuba. will be rejected civilly but mex
orably. We shall find ourselves then
confronted on the reassembllng Of Congress
with theq question whether, seeing that our
proffer of mediation has been repealed, we
ought any longer to refuse to recognize
the Cubans as independent, or, at all
events, as belligerents. The leaders of
the revolutionists assert that. for the
moment, they would be satisfied with
a mere recognition Of belligerency,
such as Spain gave to the Southern
Confederacy before the first battle of Bull
Run. That would entitle them to an ex.
change of prisoners, would give them the
same rights in our ports which are pos
sessed by subjects of Spain, and would en-
able them to organize the nucleus of a navy,
without which they will be unable to hold
any important town on the s~eacoast of
Cuba. In Chill, 1t will be remembered, the
revolution failed so long as the Spaniards
controlled the sea, whereas, after the
Chilians had got together a navy, they not
only achieved liberation for themselves, but
carried deliverance to Peru as well.
1t is scarcely conceivable that a Liberal
Cabinet. headed by so shrewd a man as
SAGAsTA, would make our recognition of
the Cubans as belligerents a cause for war.
There would be no precedent for such a
step. We gave the revolutionists on the
Spanish merican mainland all the rights
Of belligerents many years before we recog-
nized their independence, yet Spain, al
though she protested, did not break off dip
lomatic intercourse. On the other hand, the
recognition Of the Cuban republic as an in
dependent State would undoubtedly be re-
garded as an ~unfriendly act which might
Justify Spain in declaring war against us,
just as England declared war against
France when, in 1878, the independence of
the Thirteen Colonies was formally &C.
knowledged by the Government of LOUIS
XVI. At the same time, 1t is to be remem-
bered that in 1922, when MONROE recog-
nized the independence of several Spanish.
American republics, Spain, although in
furiated, did not venture to make the act a
casus belit, for the reason, apparently, that
she was too much exhausted to indulge her
vindictiveness

How Hawaii VIII Como In.

So strong has public sentiment grown in
favor Of annexing Hawaii that we should
not be surprised to find the stands ad,
mitted to our Union before the adjourn.
ment Of Congress for the winter holidays,
while we fully expect to see this accom-.
plished early in 1893.
The foundation for this belief is the rapid
clearing away Of doubts as to the wis.
dom Of the step Inc the removal Of obsta.
cles from its path. Hawaii's ratification
of the treaty by a unanimous vote shows
that she is ready to come In on the pres.
ent terms, while Congress has a choice
of procedures, one method being the or
binary two.thirds vote of the Senate for
the ratification of the treaty and the other
the Morgan resolution, which requires
only q majority in each house, as when
Texas was annexed. Whatever the doubt
none as to the majority, and this latter will,
of course, be resorted to IL required.
Again, the dispute of Hawaii with Japan,
running through the year, must have helped
the annexation cause by showing that the
safest place for the stands is within the
Union, and that the sooner they come in
the better. The hostility of the Kanaka
population to this step would seem to be
by nc means intensely active or danger
ously bitter, as suggested by the expe
rience of the royalists in their efforts tc
assemble great mass meetings in theil
favor. One produced only a few hundred
participants, not even a sixth part, it is
said, Of the native voters Of Honolulu
The congressman who have been visiting
Hawaii will tell us more about this feature
of the case, but 1t Is significant that ever
one of the party who Is inclined against
annexation admits that he thinks it viii
be sure to come.
Finally, the whole argument based OF
waiting for returns from Honolulu in a per
haps doubtful Presidential election and OF
admitting Senators from that distant com
munity, is swept aside by the provision foI
taking Hawaii in as a Territory and not al
a State. She may wait as long for State
hood as distant Alaska, or longer. The ten
dency will be to give her a special form
of territorial system that can be endur
ing, under a Governor appointed by tn,

Starving Ireland's Appeal to England

If the Salisbury Administration shall
deny the appeal of the Irish members for a
meeting of Parliament, with a view to
adopting measures of relief for mitigating
the horrors Of famine now threatening Ire.
land, the world will know where to place
the responsibility for whatever suffering,
death, and desolation may ensue from the
terrible calamity impending over that mis-.
governed portion of the British dominions.
Ireland is almost solely dependent on the
potato crop for the support of her laboring
people. According to official and other re.
ports, hat esculent Is a total failure this
season over almost the entire island, SO
worthless and diseased that it is detri-
mental to health and even dangerous to life
as an article Of food. An equally fatal
blight has fallen or the cereal crops, which,
beaten down by storms and rainfalls, have
failed to ripcn and are rotting in the fields
where they were planted. In consequence
of these unpropitious conditions thousands
of people are already starving, while the
absentee landlords, u%nmindful of their suf,
fering tenants M insensible to the awful
misery in which they are plunged, are
clamoring for their rents, and, as usual, re-
sorting to the savagery Of eviction in de-
fault of payment.
In no part of the world will the answer
of the British Government to the pathetic
appeal of furnishing Ireland be awaited
with more interest, and even anxiety, than
in the United States. A large portion OF
our population is of Irish birth, while
the percentage which traces descent from
that ancestry runs into two figures well uI
/ toward the ifties. During the present
generation, to go no further back, our
Irish-American countrymen nave contrib
uted an enormous amount of money to
! ward the relief of Irish distress, whether
arising from purely natural causes, as In
