THE NAN WITH THE GUN.

The news record of last week con-
tanned two tragic instances of the
terrible results of fire arms being al
lowed IN the hands of irresponsible
people. Last Tuesday, at San Fran
cisco, Walter Rosser, drink crazed
soldier of the Tennessee volunteers,
shot and killed a clerk in n market.
Saturday, at Pendleton, Oregon. G..
G. Cunningham, also maddened by
drink, shot and killed o. Young and
seriously wounded Mrs. Julius J..
Worcester. In neither case was there
the slightest proyocation. The mur-
derer in each instance deliberately
fired the fatal shot for the pure lust
of killing. That he was mentally un-
sound at the moment is no excuse
for the deed. The extreme penalty
of the law should he meted out in
each of these cases.
There is need in this country not
for more stringent laws governing the
carrying of fire arms, but for a more
stringent observance of those now on
the statue books. The terrible
tragedy in Spokane of last year, when
a crazed man shot into a crowd on
Howard street with fatal effects, Is
an instance that brings this matter
home to the people of Spokane. 1t
may be laid down as sound doctrine
that no private citizen has need to
carry a revolver or a fire arm of any
kind. As a means of protection
against criminals it is useless, yes,
worse than useless, for an attempt to
use it on desperate man IS attended
more often with fatal injury to the
citizen than to the criminal he hopes
to shoot. A private citizen who
carries fire arm in these days in
any settled community is either a
fool or a criminal, and the laws
should treat him as such. So long as
the laws in relation to carrying con-
cealed weapons are not rigidly en-
forced the authorities are not doing
their duty and society is in danger.

WE NEED 4 MERCHANT MARINE

The Iron and Coal Trades Review,
of London, after a quotation from
our bureau of statistics showing the
decline of our oversee carrying trade,
says: ut seems hardly possible that
with their shipping in such a mori-
bund condition, the Americans seri-
ously menace cur great export trade
in coal and iron. Shipping facilities
are Of paramount Importance in the
the development of trade" This
assertion is illustrated IN the condi-
tion of the iron trade between Bel
gium and the East Indies, which
scarcely ten years ago did not amount
to more than 10000 tons. Within
the last two or three years it has
varied between twenty and thirty
times that quantity. Without the
important means of communication
which the Hansa Company has pro-
Vided with India, a development of
so rapid a character would not have
been possible. The present mode of
conducting our export trade is about
as sensible as it would be for one of
the large department stores to trust
the delivery wagons of Its rivals to
carry its sales to their destination.

Spain to capitulate and abandon that

 MAGNATES ADJOURN.
Decided That the League Shall Con
 tinue With Twelve Clubs.

New York, December 17.-After a pro- longed series of sessions the baseball mag mates of the National League concluded their annual meeting tonight and adjourn ed to meet again on the last Tuesday of February, which is the date of the sched- uled meeting.
 It was decided that a twelve-club sched- ule, ealing for 154 games, should be ar ranged for next season. While this decis- ion ostensibly indicates that the playing schedule has been arranged and that the league will consist of twelve clubs during the season of 99, there are many persons who believe that underlying all this there is well defined scheme to reduce the league to eight clubs. A twelve-club league has been found to be too unwieldy, and it is the consensus of opinion that an eight club league is essential for numerous req sons.
 No league clubs will be allowed to play exhibition games during the coming season.
 Owing to the Illness of Messrs. Wonder horst and Ebbitts, the papers necessary to the clnehing of the Baltimore-Brooklyn amalgamation were not signed today, but t is expected that they will be signed and he deal consummated within few days.

The ordinance against discharging fire works in the city inside the fire limits will be strictly enforced during the holidays. Mayor Evans yesterday announced his de- termination to prevent a repetition of last years performance when the restriction was taken off and the streets made dan gerous by reason of the ind;scriminate dis charge of cannon crackers and other pyro- technical specialties. Outside the fire limits the small boy will be allowed to celebrate to his hearts content, but the dead line which extends along Sixteenth street to Third avenue, thence to Seven teenth street, thence to Fourth alley, up Fourth alley to Twenty-second street, thence to Third avenue, then to Twenty fifth street and thence to the railroad on the northside and along Eighteenth street to Avenue A, thence to Nineteenth street, then to Avenue D, thence to Twenty-first street and then to the railroad on the south side, must not be crossed.

THE PEACE TREATY
Will be Submitted to'the Senate During
 the Present Session.

Washington, December 1.-The president will submit the peace treaty to the senate during the present session; that much has been definitely determined upon. The text is still lacking here, and as the commission- CTS have not thought proper to entrust the document to the mails, it will not reach Washington before next Saturday. AL though desirous of placing it before the senate at the earliest opportunity, the president will not be able to do so for a week after its receipt for the reason that congress will then be in holiday recess. Meanwhile, the treaty will not be given to the public. Strong pressure has been brought to bear already to change this de- cision, but strict observance of the estab- hshed custom in such cases will be fol- lowed.

"The speech was more remarkable for it's omissions than for it's contents..'
 The impression left in the reichstag was thai a deep and lasting Assure had been driven into the dreibund and It IH signldeant that Herr Bassermann, the spokesman Of the national liberals and bitherto the stout est friend of the dreibund said:
 Thun-Hohenste;n's Speech
 ..The provocative tone of Count Thun- Hohensten toward Germany is unjustifia- ble. It Is apparent that the German empire must be strong enough to stand on It's own bottom"
 A number of other speakers expressed themselves similarly and outside in the lob- bies the opinion was repeatedly expressed that the days of the dreibund are num- bered
 On the other hand the press has much to say on the revival of good feeling toward Great Britain and the United States. Nearly all the comment is distinctly friendly.
 A gambling scandal. affecting a number of aristocrats has been brought to light and has created a sensation in society. A smart club called the "Jovia1 club,' fre- quented by officers of the Guards cavalry high government officials, bankers and members of the reichstag has existed in Berlin for some years. stranger was re- gently introduced by two highly respected members and soon became a favorite. All went swmmingly until rumors about the antecedents began to circulate, and it was noticed that luck invariably favored him.
 The Berlin Tageblatt says the stranger got many young men of the best families in his power. The whole affair will shortly be sifted in the law courts. Several club men lost immense sums and the affair is likely to have serious results for the mili- tary officers in view of Emperor William s determination to suppress gambling in the army.
