POLICE COMPLAINTS.
Citizens Committee Will Prose.

Owing to so many complaints having
been made by American sailors and
Japanese residents, against certain of
the police officers, charging them with
cruelty, and in some instances robbery
and the unsatisfactory results obtained
when efforts have been made to investi-
gate the charges, a Citizens Movement
has been organized for the purpose of
raising the funds necessary to employ
Messrs. Humphreys and Mcdonald to
prosecute such cases as may be brought
to their notice A subscription list was
taken around by a business man yes
terday and considerable money raised
to defray the expense.
One of the first cases to be pushed is
that of a Japanese arrested for mis-
demeanor and discharged. He COM
planned that the policeman arresting
him had relieved him of $40 on the
way to the station house. He gave the
case to an attorney who was unsuccess-
full in having the case heard 1t was
afterward presented to Minister Shima-
mura. and it is expected that he will
ask the prosecution of the policeman
as soon as he finds leisure time from
the consideration he is now giving
other matters of international interest
In these complaints the Marshal is
placed in a peculiar position Should
he listen to every charge made against
the officers and dismiss them the de-
partment would soon be in a chaotic
state through having almost an entire
force of new men. But on the other
hand, if he refuses to listen to com
plants and fails to investigate. taking
testimony from both sides, he arouses
the wrath of the citizens. An investi-
cation under the auspices of a Citizens
Committee, in the absence of a Board
of Police Commissioners, will relieve
Marshal Brown from any responsibility
when charges of favoritism, being
shown by him, are made.

1T
WAS
GREAT

And it made a hit
worth remembering, did our
float, Love in a Cottage" in
the procession on Monday.
1t was an illustration of a
kitchen furnished by us. 1t
showed how completely that
part of the home may be
furnished by us at the low
est possible cost.
If you remember it, the
Jewel stove stood supreme
in the cottage and if you had
inquired of the young house
keeper who occupied the
cottage, she would have told
you that as a fuel saver, the
Jewel is the best ever
brought to the country. She
would have told you that it
is the best baker she ever
had in the house. The bread
winner in the cottage would
have told you that the bis
cults he ate along the line of
march, baked in the Jewel
were quite as good as those
''his mother used to make. .
The Jewel is the best in eV-
cry respect and the cheapest,
for the money, ever put on
the market.

REPULSIVE TYPES.

The appearance Of Mrs. Mack as the
chief witness against Thorn, charged with
the murder of Guldensuppe in New York
some time ago, whose trial was opened las
week, was the climax of the most sensa
tinnal and revolving murder of modern times
By her own statement she was one OF the
principals in murder of singular deliber
alton and extreme butchery. She hardly
had the excuse OF her accomplice, in en-
nifty, as she professed friendship, if moi
love, Tor ne man whom she decoyed to his
death Yet it seems that she is to save her
neck by sending her accomplice to the gal
lows. Ii is hardly possible to escape the
question as TO the justice or humanity OF
the criminal jurisprudence that offers such
prizes for States evidence as to permit the
most cold blooded and heartless criminals
to 8, cure safety by betraying their associ
ales in crime
The lawyers for the couple, Howe and
Friend, are in themselves as interesting a
pair as the prisoners. 1t would not be
stretching the truth to say that each is
repulsive type Howe and Friend, the lat
ter typical Hebrew criminal attorney, have
control Of the cream of the business in the
New York criminal courts. They had con.
siderable more latitude in Tammany days
than since, but their methods and the char.
acter of their business is unchanged.
1t is not ability in the the practice OF the
law for which they are celebrated, but ability
in the protection of their clients. Methods
are reaorted to by them which would never
be tolerated in the rural courts of any State
in this broad land.
Friend is not so old and therefore not
quite 30 widely known as Howe, but bis
character can be seen in his own candid and
comical retort which he wrote for pubiica'
ton over bis own signature. 81 know" he
SAYS at the close of his sneering reply, "froul

THE WAR TALK.

"The first shot fired in anger between
civilized states will be between America and
SPAIN" according to one Of the leading Lon
don daily papers. The torYism of this par
ticular prophet justifies a suspicion that
the wish is father TO the thought, but the
prediction is not worth the white paper it
was printed on. True there are newspapers
in this country that are noisy in support OF
this view or statement, but their standing
is not of that sort that enables them TO start
q "scare" on the subject.
And this showing in the case is eloquent
OF the lact that the size of newspapers cir
culation is not an invariable index TO its in.
fluence in he community. Yet these echoes
of the En- ish organ of all unfriendliness TO
America and American interests, 80 far as
the Uni . States is concerned, may be less
blamat il tran the London organ of Lord
Salisbury, Iecause it is safe TO say that the
iSpect Il = knows better than its prophecies.
Nj ,dy will deny that Secretary Long is
byrer authority on the affairs OF the navy
DEPARTMENT than even the editors of New
i IT. newspapers. Referring TO the report
avail preparations for impending war,
e says "there is absolutely no foundation
for the sensational stories about probable
trouble with Spain over the Cuban ques-
ton or any other matter The prospect for
the navy is so quiescent that the captain of
our biggest and best ship has been ordered
to Washington for long sitting with
board that will try to reorganize the naval
reserve The rest OF the big war ships are
now undergoing their regular winter re-
pairs"
Then what is the use OF getting excited
on the score of war that is waged by ef
fervescent editors aided and abetted by the
foxy fellows who speculate in stocks. That
they succeeded in soaring the New York
Chamber OF Commerce into squalling for
stronger coast delenses is no sign that there
was anything to be feared in this connec-
ton, unless it be the Wall street gamblers.

During October, according to the bureau
of statistics, Baltimore maintained its lead
ing position as exporter of corn, sending
abroad 1892 ,478 bushels, against 2,673, 815
in October, 1896, New York, which stands
second in the list OF exporters of corn, sent
abroad 1,499,966 bushels during October
last. New York holds, however, the first
place in the list Of wheat exporters. 1t is
noticeable that while Baltimore and New
York lost something from last years figures,
Norfolk and Portsmouth increased their
exports of corn from 992,229 to 1,216,277
bushels.

Mr.. Michael Mulhall in a paper in the
North American Review, asserts that in
the last twenty years the population Of the
United States has risen from 100000 to
II 100000 souls-an increase OF So per cent.
and at the same time the value of exports
has risen IFS per cent-that is, three times
as fast as the population. The same emf
nent authority declares that "the quantities
of food yearly exported are sufficient to
feed 100000 persons in Europe, from
which 1t appears that American farms raise
food for 100000 Of people yearly
With productive capacity so vastly in ex.

RETIREMENT or sOvEREfGN,

The sudden and unexpected retireme Mt
of j. X. Sovereign and his most prominent
associates from the head of the national or
ganization Of the Knights of Labor has set
speculation agog. There are all sorts OF re.
ports concerning it, some Of which are hard
10 reconcile, but there are two or three fea.
lures that are indisputable. The leading
one is that the change was made without
any prior knowledge of the membership of
that body. 1t was as much surprise to
the local organizations as TO the general
public. On the face of the transaction the
retirement was entirely vo untary on Sove-
reign's part-but inasmuch as the members
of the order are openly reported as stating
that there is power that pulls down and
sets up the titular heads Of the national or.
ganization it is pertinent to say that prac.
tical revolution OF the nominal government
without any reference TO the membership
goes far to support that theory. The third
unquestionable fact is that Sovereign has
for the last year or two been trying 10 pull
the order into poiitics-in close alliance
with Debbs and others of that ik
