Anenitie, of Warfare

Spain may thank her lucky stars that she
is fighting against a civilized and courteous
foe. The other day the War Department
allowed Admiral Cervera to send his off,
cial report of the naval fight to Blanco
through the censored wires. More recently
the American commanders at Santiago
granted permission to the cable operators
sage to Madrid relative to the demand for
surrender. Admiral Cervera is to be pa
rolled at Annapolis and the limit of courtesy
is 10 be extended to his higher officers
while they are in American custody. The
captured Spanish officers were permitted
to retain their swords when captured the
other day after the fight. Admiral Ger
vera was transferred from one American
ship to another in order that he might be
given the comforts of an unused admiraPs
cabin. Admiral Dewey has granted the
Spanish officials at Manila many similar
courtesies and in every American organiza-
ton the utmost care Is exercised to pre-
serve the rights of the enemy to observe
the niceties of civilized warfare and to vio-
late none of the humanities. The other
side of tie picture Is not as pleasant for
contempt dion. Comparisons are particu-
farly odiol IS just now when success is run
ming this way and 1t would be ungenerous
to institute painful parallels The fact re-
mains. however, that Spain is to be con-
graduated on not facing another Spain

Spafn's Impossible Tas x.

Admiral Cervera states his case with dig
nifty and simple truth. Confronted with the
necessity OF fighting In a land-iocked har-
hor at a disadvantage, or making a des-
perate try for the open with the chances a
thousand to one against success. he chose
the latter. He was overwhelmed. as he had
expected to be- He proved no miracle
yorker. and only a miracle could have
saved him
The situation was fully understood both
in Havana and Madrid. The report is that
from both places the Spanish admiral was
ordered to leave the harbOr. 1t was held
that Spanish honor demanded the sacri-
flee. Europe would frown upon a surren-
der. She would applaud a useless resist
anee leading up TO humiliation. An ami
hiIation followed.
A similar sacrifice is demanded now Of the
army. Spain does not expect to succeed on
Lard She realizes that she Is overmatched
there she was on the sea. Fighting In
mountain passes on the defensive, protected
by intrenchments and a thorough knowI-
edge OF the country, she may continue to
inf1ict losses on the Americans, but she
could not conquer in open battle. The best
she could hope for would De to take a leaf
from the book of the insurgents and try to
tire the enemy out. But the army, as did
the navy, must make a sacrifice. General
Elanco insists upon a slaughter as indispen-
sable to the vindication of Spanish honor"
The sentiment that Spain is trying to meet
is probably not to be found a this day
even in Europe. The thing that Spain is
trying TO defend and vindicate does not
exist. Spain has shown no honor in dealing,
with her own people or with the American
people. She has been grossly deceiving the
one as she has been grossly maligning the
other The truth is rot in her. How. then,
car honor be? What purpose is served in
sending her men on land and sea to de-
strUction when her crimes all stand ex-
posed and her disgrace is already fixed? If
every Spanish vein were opened tomorrow
and all the blood let out the whole of the
red How would not wash out the Spanish
record in Cuba and the Philippines
SPANS effort to yindicate her honor is
far more difficult job than her effort to
whip the United States. The United States
exists.

large crowds going to and from places of
resort and amusement Throughout the
summer there have been complaints from
the patrons of the two lines running to an
up-river resort, and the tales of personal
discomforts and even of dangers connected
with transit to and from this place Is
seemingly endless. The companies promise
relief but so far have failed to provide
sufficient degree of accommodation. The
Anacostia affair indicates that there is
more than mere discomfort and annoyance
to be feared from this cause The over
loading of these cars should be pronounced
by some competent legal authority pun
isbabie offense. and the sooner this Is done
the quicker the dangerous practice will
cease.
The remedy lies in furnishing sufficient
number of cars to carry the people. OF
course at the close of suburban enter
tainment there Is a general rush to the
cars, and there is danger that the people
Will overcrowd the cars, despite all eff
forts to check them: but the trouble lies
primarily in the general fear on the part
OF the people that the company will not
supply enough facilities, and the natural
tendency is for all to seek the first cars
WITHIN reach to make sure of transporta-
ton homeward. The Commissioners could
reach the evil with police regulation for
bidding the carrying of more than a Ger
tain number of passengers regulated by
the number of seats, on any one car or
train, violations of this rule to be severely
punished, the company suffering This
would put premium upon liberal ser
vice that would perhaps be effective.

Alleged Barbarfties.

General Shafter emphatfcaIIy denfes the
story that Spanish prisoners, turned over
to the Cubans, were murdered in cold blood.
A similar denial is hoped for and may, per-
haps, be reasonably expected in respect to
the reports OF the inhuman massacre of
Spanish refugees by Cuban soldiers after
the destruction of Cervera's fleet of Santi-
ago.
But il the alleged barbarities had actually
occurred Spain would have had little if any
ground of complaint. She set the example.
1t would only be another case Of 'bloody
Instructions. which, being taught, return to
plague the inventor" When those victims
of years of crual oppression remembered
how the women of Cuba have been out
ragged by the soldiery of Spain, how infancy
and old age together have been deliberately
starved to death, and how non-combatants
have bseu shot down in cold blood, by mill
tsry orders, it would be not at all surpris-
ing il wild spirit of revenge should mani
fest itself when an opportunity to settle old
scores was presented. Still. such acts would
be wholly insxcusable in our allies, and it
is both the right and duty of civilization to
protest against them and to prevent them.

Duties for "Stny-at-Homes

Since only an fnconsiderable fraction of
the American people is needed for military
service a few suggestions are in order for
the vast majority to whom the privilege has
not been given of serving In the fieid.
They can refrain from hasty and ill-tem-
pered criticism of the government Such
criticism is not only unjust and ungenerous,
but it sometimes throws serious embarrass-
ments In the way of the government in car
rying out its plans.
They can pay their additional taxes cheer
fully, and help ir other ways TO supply the
needed sinews of war.
They can attend more strictly than ever
to their own occupa tons; they can be pru-
dent, vigiiant and energetic in these lines,
and thus help keep the business interests
of the country vigorous and healthy
They can attend more scrupuiously than
ever to their civic and political duties, and
thus prevent the country from suffering not
only from the inevitable misfortunes of
war, but also from the still greater mis-
fortune of the rule of corrupt and ineffi-
cfent men in legislator es. municipalities and
other places of rover.
They can contribute promptly and gener-
ously, as opportunity offers, Of time and
means to the various funds used for the
care of sick and wounded soldiers.
They can see that the families of those
who have been called to the front do not
suffer from want or neglect.
They can be patriotic, patient and prayer
full.

Books for the Library.

II rests now with the people of the Dis

partly provided for in the current appro-
priation act Is to become Immediately eff

As appears in a statement in today's news

Rance of this library does not extend to

done in this line, and it Is reasonably to
ne expected that much more viii soon be
done to give the library good start and
TO equip 1t without delay as first-class
collection for both reference and circula-

the library can be augmented. These are:
First. to donate a memorial fund the in
terest of which is to be used for the pur
chase of books or periodicals.; second, the
direct donation OF books; third, the dona-
tion Of money for the purchase of library
supplies. The fund given by Mr.. J. T.
Dubois for the purchase of periodicals, the
money given by Messrs Woodward &
Lothrop. C. s. Noyes and c. c. Glover and
the books turned over to the new institu-
ton by the Washington City Free Library
constitute the nucleus now at hand for the
accumulation of a library of suitable pro-
portions. Thus each method of donation is
well exemplified and others will probably

is to be a library for the people, and it is
highly desirable that all classes of citizens
should take a direct interest in it, not only
for the good 1t does to them, but for the
opportunity which 1t affords them to do
good to others.

\ Chance for the Pubifc-Spirfted

Under the law creating the free public
library as a tax-sustained adjunct of the
buoiic schools the Commissioners of the
District are authorized ito accept and take
title 10 all gifts, requests and devices for
tne purpose of aiding in the maintenance
or endowment OF said library"
This combination of private substitution
ana tax maintenance creates the true pub
Inc library IN the modern sense. The libra
ran or the Boston public library in
Forum article says: '-Thers was profound
foresight In the course taken by Mr.. Pratt
Instead OF placing his endowment in the
hands OF private corporation he turned
over the million dollars direct to the munic-
Ipalty. merely STIMULATING that the city
should appropriate annually an amount
equal to the income of that sum for the
maintenance of a free library. The private
endowment, therefore, became merged in
the public undertaking, and except for the
name which perpetuates.l1 e memory of the
git the institution would appear simply as
a municipal enterprise on the part of the
city of Baltimore"
The same principle has governed Mr.
Carnegie In his numerous gifts of libraries
as TO Edinburgh, Ayr and Dumfermline In
Scotland. Johnstown, Allegheny City and
Pittsburg. Pa, and Fairfield Iowa Mr..
Carnegie fs quoted in the October 1895 Re-
view of Reviews as saying: THE result of
my own study of the question''What is the
best gift which can be given to a COM
munity? is that a free library occupies
the first place, provided the community will
accept and maintain it as public insttu-
ton as much a part of the city property as
Its public schools. and indeed an adjunct to
those III the course of his remarks at
the dedication of the library which he gave
to Pittsburg Mr.. Carnegie said: When the
library is supported by the community as
P1ttsburg is wisely to support her library
all faint of charity is dispelled. Every eiti-
zen of Pittsburg, even the very humblest.
now walks into his own library, for the
poorest laborer contributes his mite indi-
rectly. to its support"

Carnegie, is now created for Washington.

Oyercrowded Suburban Cars

The Anacostia street railway accident of
last night emphasizes the urgent need of
more care for the appliances of the SUBJ
urban electric lines and of q rule or law
against oyercrowdng. This disaster was
caused. according to all accounts, by the
breaking of a brake chain, DUE no doubt
both to the weakness of the parts and to
the extraordinary load. The car was
greatly crowded. 1t had started down a.
steep grade, one of the heaviest on any
Of the District car lines, and the strain on
the brake chain was sudden and severe
The breaking of this necessary connection
between the brake handle and the shoe
made 1t impossible TO stop the car by ordi-
Rary means.
The suburban roads running out OF
Washington cross many high hills and are
often in the same peril as that which cul-
minated Sunday night In the fatal acct
dent In Anaeostia. Terrific speeds result
from these grades. and 1t Is a marvel that
more accidents hare not occurred as a re-
suit of the fast running of cars and trains
in and out of the city. This distressing
affair shows that absolute reliance cannot
be placed In the ordinary appliances for
governing speed. One of two things and
perhaps both should be required of the
companies by the authorities. The brake
chains should be made of exceptional
strength or the cars should not be crowd
ed beyond the limits of evident safety.
Not only were the seats all filed, but pas
sengers were standing on the running
board along the sides. There is no accu-
rate record of the number carried, for the
conductor had moi completed his coliec-
ton OF fares. and tlers can be only esti-
mates Of the load. Yet 1t is plain that it
was excessive.
