REGISTRATION FEES.
A. A. U. Opposed to Proposition for oivid'
ing With intercollegiate Association.


Boston, March S--While the official
vote has not been announced, it is un-
derstood that the Amateur Athletic
Union has voted unanimously against
the proposition that one-half the regis
tration fee of college athletes shall go
to the intercollegiate Athletic Associa-
ton. and 1t is believed the college body
will do the same This is not because
the New England Amateur Athletic
Union objects to giving the college men
part of the fee, but because it does
not believe in the principles OF regis
tration The objection is that the idea
Of charging registration fee is radi-
cally wrong, because there is nothing to
be gained by it.
The registration committee makes the
contention that the registration is to Sc
cure clean sport, and that its opponents
are only those who are in athletics for
profit. The opponents claim that tine
contention is groundless, from the fact
that the bodies like the Boston Athletic
Association, which have been foremost
in promoting clean sport, are unanimous
in demanding the repeal of the rule, and
that there can be no more rigid super
vision of college athletics by the A. A.
u. than by the Intercollegiate aSSocia-
ton and the other colleges against
which they compete. It is not unlikely
that in spite of the threats of the A. A.
U officials, and the support given to
the registration scheme by the New
York Athletic Club. the rule will soon
be repealed.

Now that Sheriff Martin and his dep
uties are taking their turn at testify
ing in the trial for the shooting of strik-
ers at Lattimer, it is made clear enough
that they will not be found guilty be-
cause of any lack Of testimony as to the
misbehavior of the mob or the warrant
for shooting in. sef-defence and the en-
forcement Of the law. What all this tes-
timony may be worth as evidence is
quite another question. There are direct
contradictions of testimony at almost
every turn, and he would be rash, in
deed, who, at this distance, would pre-
sumo to decide the question of veracity
in favor of one side or the other

Speaker Reeds reported announcement
of May as the day for the adjournment
Of congress, has stirred some of the
members nightly They want more
time for speechmaking if not for legis-
lation. They are represented as saying
that nobody has yet made record with
which he can go home and face his con-
stituents with any hope of reelection.
Neither Cuba nor Hawaii, nor the mon
ey question has been settled, though the
last-named topic doesn't seem to worry
them especially. Nevertheless, they
think they should have something to
show for the sessions work, and what
have we got?' say they. With Cuban
debate tabooed, Hawaiian annexation
apparently hung up to stay and many
of them afraid of the money question,
what show indeed have they? The en-
barrassments Of a congressman in
these days are many.

The hearing on the bill for the protec-
tion of the Mayfiower or trailing arbu-
tus, brought out some interesting testi-
mony at the state house. Italians and
Portuguese, it appears, have been strip
ping Bristol county of this favorite
flower, for they pull up the plant by the
roots and otherwise conduct themselves
In q manner personally obnoxious to
the owners of the property on which
they trespass. What the foreigners
have been doing in the eastern part Of
the state, Smith College and Amherst
students have been doing at the other
end of it, though of course they do not
sell the product of their labor as the
Portuguese and Italians do. The bill
proposes a fine of $50 or twenty days
imprisonment for gathering the flower
in a town of which the flower picker is
not an inhabitant. 1t is worth while to
notice that there were no remonstrants
to the bill

The occasional disposition of writer's
and interviewers to attach Importance
to the coming election Of new Spanish
cortes, moves the New York Evening
Post to observe that these elections are
Of no possible consequence from an in
ternational standpoint, because the
elections are all cut and dried before
hand. The government, that is to say
the ministry in power, always wins. The
people, the electorate, have nothing to
say about it. Previous to the election
the government calls the various party
leaders to a conference. and an appor-
tionment of seats is made then and
there, the government indicating how
many deputies it is willing to concede
to the respective factions. The agree
'ment then made is carried out, and
great surprise would be expressed If it
were not. Anything different from this
would be tantamount to revolution.

The benevolent Mr.. Hooley, who
seems to have succeeded the late Col.
North and the late Barney Barnato as
the greatest of the rich vulgarians OF
London, is fast getting on in the world.
His latest social triumph is an invita-
tion to visit the Prince of Wales, at San
dringham, and that necessarily estab-
fishes his position. He has, of course,
distinguished himself by his lavish ex-
penditures, like others of his class. 1t
was he who gave the gold communion
service to st. Paul's, and during the
queens jubilee gave a banquet to the
poor children of London. His contribu-
tons to various charities have been on
a magnificent scale that was sure to
attract attention, whether he specially
desired it or not. What is the sense of
London's turning up her nose at New
York for worshiping the golden caIf,
the mighty dollar? This sort of thing
runs riot as much along the banks of the
Thames as anywhere else.

The divers who are working on the
wreck of the Maine are properly coming
in for recognition of their courage in
facing dangers of various sorts. The
wreck is nothing better than a vast and
shapeless heap of scrap iron, thrown
together in the utmost confusion. Such
is the snarl and tangle of beams, rail-
ings, plates, pipes, guns, ammunition
cases and ship furniture, that the diver
who tries to penetrate the passages and
recesses left open, is in imminent peril
of death, either from the slipping of
some heavy piece of iron or the cutting
of his air tube and life line, or from
msstep that might throw him no man
can say where. This aspect Of the case
has been frequently told. There is an
other matter that has received less at
tention. 1t is the danger of contamina-
ton and disease from the filthy mud
and water of the harbor. 1t was said
that the Maine was tied UP to buoy
instead Of anchored, because there would
thus be less danger of infection from
disease germs that in superabundance
swarm in the harbor waters. Against the
germs Of disease divers armor is but
poor protection, especially as the debris
has to be brought to the surface and
handled. No doubt there is pestilence
enough there to fill a hospital.

The reasonableness and good sense of
the recent attack upon Secretary Long
are evidenced by the fact that the New
York Journal is the foremost Of the as
sailants. The fact is, John D. Long has
been thorn in the jingo flesh ever
since February 49, because he has kept
his head, talked sense and refrained
from nonsense and sensationalism. His
remark, that "the element of official
participation of the Spanish govern
ment in the blowing UP of the Maine, is
practically eliminated" was only the
commonplace expression of a diplomatic
truism, that has been iterated and re-
iterated ever since the news Of the disas-
ter reached the United States. Never
theless coming from a member of the
cabinet and from the man who above
all others has made himself obnoxious
to the jingoes, their spasm of indigna-
ton knows no bounds either of reason
or of propriety. They howl about an
attempt to influence the stock market,
and talk of forcing Secretary Long to
resign Were it not for this outburst
Of iingo insanity, the secretary's re
mark would not call for any comment
whatever 1t is an established fact in
diplomacy, that the bad faith of one ma
ton is not to be openly assumed by the
officials Of another before the fact is pa
tent and proved. Happily, this assault
upon the secretary of the navy gets no
sympathy outside of the iingoes and
the yellows, and they We're discounted
some time ago That is what is
the matter with them. John D. Long
took all the wind out of their sails, and
now they are trying to get square,
with him.
Worcester morning daily spy., 1898-03-04

The New York Journal processes TO
own the five congressman who have
sailed for Cuba from Fort Monroe. It's
impudence does not end with this, how
ever for it says that upon their report
depends American action in relation to
Cuba and Spanish affairs" 1t seems
to us that this is about as insulting to
the presidentand to congress as anything
that could be devised, and it is not too
much to believe that it was so intended.
These men are not going in any official
capacity, but as private. citizens. with
out any official authority or official COM
mission whatsoever. They are repre-
sented Brightly or wrongly as
guests and agents of a motor
iously mendacious shrieker of war,
whose obvious purpose is to take the
direction of foreign affairs out of the
hands Of the nations executive and die
tate whether there shall be war or
peace. Having failed to make the peo-
pie mad with war fever, the effort now
is to throw discredit upon the adminis-
tration, to force it to extreme measures
before the time is ripe. Not satisfied
even with this, the same conspirators
SANDER the administration with the di-
rect charge that it is using Cuba as an
instrument for dickering in the stock
market. The men who seem to have
lent themselves to this most precious
of the Journals schemes are Senators
Thurston of Nebraska, Gallinger of
New Hampshire and Money of Missis-
sippi, Representatives Cummings Of
New York and Smith of Michigan.
These gentlemen have accepted some
what of responsibility. Let US see
elected the owner of the New York
Journal president of the United states? /?

Free silver and woman suffrage were
about the only issues that were not ac-
cepted as proper planks for the state
platform by the New York democratic
legislative caucus at Albany. On these
topics the caucus made no pronounce
ment whatever. Possibly both were
thought superfuous. Or, like Gen. Han
cock on the tariff, did the Legislators
think free silver only a local issue, .
to be decided in the congressional dis
trict conventions?
