Object to Action of the Powers.
"a tho I,ditor of The Evening Star:

have read in The Star Of this date what
purports to be an appeal Of the great pow
ers of Europe ITO the feelings of humanity
and moderation of the President and of
the American people in their existing dif-
ferences with Spain." and the expression
of their hopes for the future. etc.
Now, the first thoughts of the average
American are, has this government been
guilty of inhumanity, that this appeal
snouli be made to the feelings or human
ityY' Has the sending Of ship loads ot
food. clothing and medicine to the suner-
ers in Cuba been sufficient in the eyes or
the great powers of Europe to condemn US
of inhumanity? Have the President AMI
the American people been immoderate IN
their expressions of disapproyal of condi-
lions existing at their Threshold for the
last three years?
But it is remarkable that during all Of
these three years of cruelty. oppression
and devastation in Cuba by the Spanish
authorities, not one of the great powers Of
Europe submitted the mldest protest.
The United States has never meddled
with European affairs, not even when the
Armenians were suffering the fortunes of
the Turkish inquisition, when either of the
powers above referred to might have put u
stop to the suffering of the Christians.
Now, the average American citizen enters
his most indignant protest against the
s.powers'' intervening or meddling in any
manner with matters that the American
people have to settle. J. Y. BALLOU.

National Fencibles of National Guard
Issue Cnll for Recruits.
Company c. I'd Battalion, District of Co
lumbia National Guard-the National Fem
cibles-has formulated a scheme for in
creasing the membership to a battalion. 1t
Is the intention to maintain in the battalion
organization the same standard and per-
sonnet that has characterized the company
in years past and which has ranked 1t as
representative military organization Of
the national capital. The State Fencibles
OF Philadelphia are to be patterned after in
the formation of the greater Fencibles, the
latter organization to be, however national
in character. The membership of the Fen
cibles embraces men who have had years
of experience in the infantry branch OF the
service, and who are thoroughly schooled in
all the duties of soldier. With such a nu-
cleus to build upon. it is claimed, no doubt
can exist as to the ultimate efficiency Of
the augmented organization.
A circular letter has been addressed to
the ex-members Of the company to the
number Of about 200, impressing upon them
the ACCESSIBILITY of immediate enlistment
Success in this direction, say the promot-
ers of the scheme, will mean the formation

Building Line. on Minor Streets.

Replying to an inquiry from Senator Nc
MILAN as to whether or not any recent de-
cision in the courts of the District makes
unnecessary the legislation proposed by the
Senate bill to establish building lines on
minor streets in the District, the District
Commissioners have submitted the opinion
of the attorney for the District. The attor-
ney states that he knows of no such decis-
ion. His opinion was as follows:
THE decision of the court referred to
was perhaps in the case of Wilkinson
against Barr & Sanner. which involved
compensation for the use of party wall.
wherein Mr.. Justice Cole of the Supreme
Court of the District of Columbia held
(about two weeks ago. that our building
