Fifty persons, it is believed. were killed

British battleship Albion was launched.
Crowds of people were on n platform,
built to accommodate the spectators, and
300 men, women and children were pre-
cipitatcd into the river Thames, the

on it. Tugs. steamers md rowboats inn

they could be reached.
The accident was due to n sudden rush
of water. following the launching. The
backwash from the launching of the YES

staging eighty feet long, filed with the
spectators. The launching was presided
over by the duchess of York. A large and
brilliant company of ladies and gentlemen
were present. including United States
Ambassador Hay and Mrs. Hay. None
of the guests were on the stage, nor were
any prominent persons included among its
unfortunate occupants.

THE HAWAIIAN ISSUE.

Some nation will control Hawaii If the
United States refuses to annex to pro-
tect the present rule by the intelligence of
the islands it is quite probable that the ex-
Queen or some of her family will return
to power and restore the corruption and
RIGHTEOUSNESS which have always attended
native rule. Very naturally, if that ele-
ment should return to power the actual
Americans who live there and constitute
its civilization will be prosecuted or forced
to leave the islands. The ex-Queen is our
enemy, and as SUCH as far as possible, her
rule will be hostile to the United States.
Under her some European government will
be favored and will be given all the adj
vantages of actual possession.
Several governments would gladly extend
to the native government of Hawaii a pro-
tectorate in return for what would amount
to actual possession. We could not do more
than protest because it could be said that
the United States had the offer of the ISL
ands and refused to accept them. BY our
own action we would be debarred from in
reference. If the present government
should lose its grasp and the ex-Queen
should set up her disgraceful rule and give
France or Germany practical control of
Hawaii as a naval station, to whom would
the Nicaragua canal, which the country
seems disposed to build, belong in the event
of war? To the possessors of the Islands,
whether German or French.
Who are fighting annexation? few men
who are opposed to annexation on principle
but chiefly the Sugar Trust the sugar
growing interests in this country and the
Pacific railroads - the latter because they
fear that possession of Hawaii will be fol-
lowed by the construction of the Nicaragua
canal. whose competition the railway COM
panies fear
The United States should absolutely con-
troll Hawaii-if not by annexation, then by
extending to the present government that
protection which will give it stability. Those
who oppose both annexation and protec-
torate seem willing that some European
government should come into control OF
the islands and make Americans, who are
all of Hawaii that is of value to the world.
foreigners. The issue is: Shall the United
States or some European power control Ha-
wall?

THE BANKRUPTCY LAW.

During the past dozen years efforts have
been made to induce Congress to enact
bankruptcy law to take the place of that
which was repealed in 1878. Two or three
bills have been considered and rejected by
members from the newer States because
it was believed their constituents were Of
the debtor class and would be the sufferers,
while the residents of the East, who are
held to be creditors, would be the gamers.
Within few years. however. business men
all over the country have seen the impor-
lance Of a general bankruptcy law. year
ago the Senate passed the Wilson BILL which
should go into court and surrender the prop
erty then in his possession should receive
immunity, but if a debtor failed or refused
to pay his debts his creditors could not
bring him into court, no matter how much
evidence there might be that he was vast
ing the assets to which they were entitled.
The House passed a bill during the present
session which the advocates of the Nelson
bill declared was wholly in the interest of
ence committee, and the result is a bill
which is generally satisfactory. The confer
ence bill which the Senate has passed. and
which the House will pass, proceeds upon
the principle that no debtor shall be re-
leased from his obligations unless he can
show that he has dealt honestly.
The chief defects of the last bankruptcy
act were that the fees were excessive and
that the proceedings could be extended in
intrusted In fact, during it's last years the
law was used as a club to force creditors
to sacrifice their claims in settlement rather
than submit to the exorbitant fees and de-
lay of the law The present law provides
against excessive fees and delay. Fraud in
conveying. transferring concealing prop
erty, giving preference to creditors, a gen.
era assignment of property or an admis-
sion in writing of inability to pay debts and
willingness to be adjudged a bankrupt are
the main grounds for involuntary bank
ruptcy, while the proof of solvency is a COM
plete defense on the part of debtor against
an attempt to have him adjudged a bank
rupt
1t is believed that the law will be SUBJ
stantial assistance to business throughout
the country, because it will increase the re-
liability of transactions. This is important
in all communities, but more SO to such as
are called the debtor class" since the
greater the confidence in the ability of debt
ors to meet their obligations the better
terms those who borrow capital on stocks
of goods machinery will obtain. Any
law which closes the avenues to dishonesty
in business transactions will benefit the
honorable debtor in the way of more favor
able terms.

are based upon the theory that a common
school education is necessary. That higher
education is not essential to good citizenship
is indicated by the fact that the period of
compulsory education ends before the age
necessary to prepare for the higher grades
of the public school. That the public schools
may have competent teachers, the State
should support normal schools for the train
ing Of teachers. who should be pledged to
teach certain period
If those who are urging the expenditure
of millions to support universities could
break through their narrow environment
and take note of the drift of taxation for
local purposes, they would have compass
sion upon the mass of people whom they
would assess for the benefit of very few.
Most cities in Indiana afford in their high
schools a better education than Indiana
colleges gave fifty years ago. The expend-
ture for schools has increased much more
rapidly than population or wealth. County,
municipal and township taxation has been
increased enormously in twenty years
Such taxation is positive burden, as any,
There is such thing as taxing the life
and energy out of a people. We are not
near that point, but several great Euro
pean governments are taxing their people to
poverty.
1t may be added that there are now so
many universities in the land with scholar
ships and so many men who will help young
men who are in earnest and have given
promise of attaining prominence, that those
who have purpose need not be excluded
from the universities because of their pow
erty If it should be necessary for the State
to educate a given number of men in uni
versites let the admissions be made upon
rigid competitive examination such as is re-
quired for the military and naval schools of
the United States.

CHANNEL NOT BLOCKED.
HObsOn Failed to Sink the Merrimac
in the Right Place.

NEW YORK, June PA dispatch to the
Herald from Port Antonio says: 1t has
remained for the stanch dynamite cruiser.
the Vesuvius, to demonstrate that the en-
trance to Santiago harbor was not COM
pletely blocked by the sinking of the Mer-
Timac. While poking her nose about the
entrance to the harbor a few nights ago,
the Vesuvius discovered ample room in
which to pass the wreck of the Merrimac.
She went in, made observa tons along the
inner harbor. and then came back to sea,
getting around the wrecked collier without
difficulty. This rather surprising ihforma-
ton, came out in the course of a cOnVerSa-
ton in which Admiral Sampson and Capt.
Chadwick discussed the situation from a
naval standpoint. At length Captain Chad
wick made the surprising statement that 1t
was a question whether the Merrimac had
been properly sunk. He said he feared
Lieutenant Hobson and his plucky men had
taken the vessel too far into the harbor be-
fore sinking her.
AS the collier now lies. it is said the chan
mel is comparatively free of obstruction.
Such is the opinion of the men on the We
suvius, and their opinion is based on eX-
perience. Not only did the dynamite cruiser
the outer forts the other night, but it gave
to Admiral Sampson news which resulted
in a closer examination of the wreck as 1t
now lies. 1t has been ascertained that two
battleshipS can enter the harbor almost
abreast. one passing to the right and the
other to the left of the Merrimac wreck.
This is an opportunity that will be of great
advantage to Admiral Sampson when the
final attack Santiago begins Lieut..
Hobson and his men still are in communlca-
pect that they will be exchanged before the
attack on Santiago is made,
