HARD HIT.

BY the unbounded indecency of it's
frantic rage, the Pioneer Press yester-
day acknowledged itself hard hit, and,
at the same time, gave confirmation
of whispers on the streets concerning
its motives and of the only true state
ment in it's article, namely: that the
editor of newspaper is not always
a gentleman. We had supposed that
politics and not pelf was behind its
championship of the street railway
company. By playing the blackguard
it necessarily lays itself open to a
charge that the people have already
been slow to make. The editor of the
Globe can we'll afford to bear, as
part of the work of defending the inter-
ests of the people against the attack,
the coarse personalities that are the
last refuge of one defeated in argument
or detected in misdoing. We prefer TO
credit this melancholy exhibition of
the diction and ethics of the prize-ring
rather to the infirmity of a mind brok-
en- by misfortune than to those meaner
motives that it's own logic so pitilessly
suggests. We therefore bespeak for
1t the charity Of an astonished and out
ragged public.

ANTI-JEWISH OUTBREAK.
Trouble Precipitated in Bohemia by
Students Quarrel.

PILSEN, Bohemia, Aug 22-The dis
turbances that were begun Friday by
the fanatical opponents of the Jews
were resumed yesterday. They arose
from quarrel between a German
Jewish student named Hartmann and
a Bohemian student named Schmidt,
While the police were escorting Hart
mann from the town hall an anti
Jewish mob attacked them and then
smashed all the windows in the
synagogue, the Jewish schools
and the houses of the best
known Jews. The authorities called
out the military to suppress the riots
and the troops paraded the town
from o'clock yesterday afternoon I'M
til IL in the evening, when a regular
system of military patrol was estab-
lished. An order has been issued for
bidding public meetings of any kind,
directing all householders to close their
houses at 8 o'clock in the evening,
and warning the heads of families
to keep their apprentices and assist
ants in doors after 1880 D. m. The
police have made twenty-nine arrests.
The town is quiet this evening, but
there were disturbances at Sachen, a
suburb of Pilsen, which required the
presence Of the military.
Thus far only five persons have been
injured in the riots. 1t is expected
that many additional arrests will be
made.

SPANS RESOURCES,
An Ex-Minister of War Says They
Are ROundIess

PARIS, Aug. 22-Gen. Lopez Do.
m1nguez, who was Spanish minister of
war in the last cabinet of Senior Sa-
gasta, is now in Paris. In the course
OF an interview. he has deeply deplored
the death Of Senior Canovas del Cas-
tillo particularly because of the war IN
Cuba and the general disorganization
OF politics in Spain. He regards Gen.
Dezarraga, the new premier, as a
clever and tactful man, but does NOT
believe he will be able to replace Senior
Canovas, as the dual task of being the
head of the government and also the
head of the Conservative party is
heavy one
In the opinion of Gen. Dominguez
circumstances will require the return
OF Gen. Sagasta to power as the Con.
sentative party is crumbling He says
Senior CASTELAR, has decided not to re-
enter politics, but that his advice will
always be sought by both Liberal and
Conservative governments. In conclud-
ing the interview, Gen. Dominguez
said:
L don't believe that either EuroDe or
the United States will interfere in the
cuban difficulty. Spain has incalcu.
liable resources at her command, and
the only thing to be feared is that
political disputes may prevent the sup
preston of rebellion which has now
arrived at the limit of exhaustion"

the r. B. claims that ."if we had an
1mpost Of 2R cents on the production
or 1t, and, in addition, if the factory
were exempted from taxation, we
could produce all our own sugar."
Now. no Orthodox Republican editor
would dissent from this for an instant
except to assert that the P. B. was
altogether too modest and that the
bounty alone should be, as the Mime
apolis Tribune claimed, at least four
cents pomdoy
But instead Of approval we have this
editor of the paper Of which Adjt.
Gen. Sayler is publisher. chillingly
asking. Put at what price," He
counters on the P. BIS reference to
Germany, by reminding his readers
that Germans get but fifteen pounds of
sugar for dollar, while untaxed and
unbountied Englishmen get from thir-
ty to thirty-three pounds for the same
money Let us suppose" he proceed
ed as callously as would any free trad
er, that by paying three cents q
pound more for sugar we could ex-
ciude the foreign article. That would
cost US 500, O0O, 900 a year, provided we
used the same quality" which we
wouldn't. He wants to know if ''you
are willing to pay fancy prices for
sugar in order to stimulate the cult
walton of the beet and subsidized sugar
barons?" and then jumps on the P. 3.

that 1T is a humbug of the most
transparent type. eff Walker can't
make money in lumber he can go with
out, and if growing beet is not profit
able let the farmer turn his hand to
something else. If the state is going
to spend money on beet growing, why
not on wheat raising?" And he lends
up with the snort: ''The American
people are not fools" Thus sweeping
ly stated the P. B., would probably dis
agree with him, but he might concede
that the majority are in economics.
But what we have given all this space
to is the duty of warning Col. Saylor,
adjutant general M. N. G., that his
editor is teaching some very heretical
doctrine, and asking some very awk-
ward questions not confined in their
reach to the matter of the Poo Bah
and beet sugar.

OIL FOR FUEL.
Am Experiment to BE Tried with the
Torpedo Fleet.

Torpedo Fleet.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 22.-The sec
rotary of the navy has ordered Lieut..
Nathan Sargent to proceed at once to
the oil fields of Pennsylvania, where
he will make a careful investigation
of the various grades of petroleum
produced in that region with a view
as to it's use for fuel for marine en-
gines. Upon the conclusion of this
work, he will report to the authorities
ton, and plans will drawn up for an
of the new torpedo boats now being
built by the Herreshoffs This will be
the first attempt to use petroleum as
fuel for the torpedo fleet, but, from
the success that has been attained with
this motive force in swift steam
launches, owned by private parties
both here and abroad, the navy de-
partment looks very favorably on the
experiment. Some of the advantages
expected from the new fuel are econo-
my of machine space, and, consequent
ly, greater fuel-carrying capacity,
economy in the cost of fuel and the
ability to develop extremely high
steam pressure under forced draught
The plans for the new engines are not
yet laid, and will depend largely on
the report on the various grades of
petroleum at command. 1t is possible
that with this innovation in fuel will
be combined the use Of the steam tur-
bine engine, whose success in the Eng
lish torpedo boat Turbin has marked
a decided epoch in the development of
these fleet-footed destroyers abroad.

AT THE THEATERS,

"Niobe," that strictly modernized "Pyg-
malion and Galatea," which, however, Dor
rows nothing from the fable save the Incl
dent of the animation of the statue, was pre-
scented at the Metropolitan last evening by
the Giffen-Neill company. Harry and Ed
ward Paulton, the authors of this highly
amusing conceit, have been repeatedly ard
justly commended for the cleverness and in
genuity with which they have handled sub
ject that w. S. Gilbert, the noted lib ettist
and satirist, has embodied in A drama that
ranks among the classics. Beyond the una
voidable suggestion caused by the coming to
life of the statue, there is nothing in the
comedy Of "Niobe' to subject its authors to
the faintest insinuation of lack Of original
ity. The lines are irresistibly witty. and tho
situations ludicrous and comical 70 a degree.
The confusion of persons and things of the
nineteenth century with those of Niobe's

tremely funny contrasts In the spescles
The performance was greatly enjoyed by
good-sized audience. 1t will be all the more
effective when some of the members IF the

with their lines. The action will be more
sprightly, and none of the good points will be
lost. In the main, however, the presenta
ton was good.
Edythe Chapman was a pretty and statu-
esque Niobe, whose impersonation, while
pleasing, would be improved if size would
speak trife louder and enunci1te a little
more distinctly. Joseph B. Evernam 5 facial

terization of Jefferson Tompkins, the enthusi-
