A BAD TRICK IN CRETE.

Nothing could create a much worse lmpressio"
IN the Crctan business than the revelation OF
the fact that the Turkish officials ut Canea nave
all along had on hand plenty OF money WIN
which TO pay the gendarmery. and money intend
cd for that purpose and yet have not paid them.
This is not a mere episode OF the troubles III
Crete II comes very near being the root ana
source of them. year ago. as will be remen-
bered. it was discovered that Turkish officials
NJ Constnntinoplc had robbed the Cretan treas
ury of about 100000. AT the same time 'here
wns n dcfici, in the Crctan budget Of similar
amount The Cretans proposed that the Porte
should reimburse them for the thefts or lis OF
ficials and thus wipe out the deficit. 1t refused
Then they proposed. since they must nave

purposes, to make a loan for $JOOOoo chris
tIans and Muss,Ilmans alike favored the plan,
and the Governor Karatheodory. approved IT,.
But the Porte. for no apparent reason, vetoed w..
ThereupOn Karatheodory. one OF the best iov-
trnors Crete has ever had. resigned in despair
the gcndarmery became mutinous, and the Isl
and burst into revolt.
Now it appears that the Turkish officials have
all along had the money for the gcndarInes, but
have been deliberately Withholding 1t. few
days ago the gendarmes demanded their money,
and when it was denied them became violent,
and several men were killed. And all the time
the Turkish officials had the money in their
pockets. A more abomnabe piece Of wanton
wickedness Is not easily imagined. There are
probably not more than two other countries In
which It could have occurred Why II was dore
is matter for conjecture, but most people Will
probably soon form a pretty positive opinion
about it. That will he. that 1t was done under
orders from COnstantinOple deliberately given
for the purpose Of causing embarrassment and
provoking disturbances in Crete, which latter
would, of course. furnish pretext for postpone
ment of the promised reforms. That Is an I'M
pleasant opinion TO hold Of any government, but
it Is warranted by the known facts OF former
Turkish history, and there is no Indication that
the character Of Turkish administration has
changed for the better in recent years.

PRESIDENTIAL SUCCESSION PROBLEMS.


Constitutions and laws are prone not to pro-
vide against remote contingencies. This Is well
enough. so far as trivial possibilities are con-
carned hui there are cases in which such neg
loo. ia uniustifiable II Is not wise. for ex-
ample TO ignore the fact that the death OF
President-elect would at least leave the success
sion open to discussion. and might produce dan
eerous complications Secretary Sherman Is OH
record we believe, as holding that the Vice.
Presdcnt-elect would not have an mpregnable
constitutional title to the Presidency in that
case though he might succeed by common con-
sent He certainly could not take the office OF
President in succession TO a President-elect who
had never held IT. nor could he take it by virtue
of his quality as Nce-Presldent-elecf. which
legally Is not an official quality at all. But there
is. on the other hand much force in the argi-
ment that having become Nice-Presdent In
strict accordance with the Constitution. he would
Immediately thereafter become President. in sue
ccssion not 10 the deceased President-elect. but
10 the actual outgoing President through whose
removal by the expiration Of his term the office
had become vacant. in case both the Presl-
dent ELECT and the Vice-Presdentelect should
die. the question would become still more com
plicoted. hut in that emergency the same reason
ing would seem 10 show that the outgoing Secrc-
tary of State. whose term does not expire by
limitation on a fixed date. would succeed in
Mace Of the outgoing President.
A state OF affairs involving different prob
lens would arise II the person designated for
President at the popular election should die
pr,or to the meetings Of the electoral colleges.
In that case II may be said. the original DELHI
erative function and independent choice OF the
electors would be restored: but II is extremely
doubtful II popular opinion or the consent Of the
successful party would leave the decision to the
electors 1t IS more probable that a National
convention would he called to make a nomina-
t,on which the electors would infalliblt ratfy.
The range OF possibilities might he still greater
IN the case Of the electors having already met
and voted for candidate who was destined
to die prior TO the counting Of their votes by
Congress. For under those conditions 1t seems
certain that the electors would have nothing
further TO do with the matter. In strict truth
there would he no electors. for having met and
acted they would have performed their sole func-
ton. would have ceased to exist officially, and
would be beyond the possibility of resurrection.
The proceedings following the death OF Mr..
Greeley throw little light on the subject. for he
was an unsuccessful candidate; his death few
