of the Powers In SuItan's Hands.
GAMBIA, Island of Crete, Sept. 3d.
Edhem Pasha, the Turkish governor,
who is chiefly blamed for the recent
rioting here, has been deprived of the
governorship and started for Smyrna
yesterday.
The delays and subterfuges in COM
plying with the orders of Admiral Noel,
the British commander in these waters,
increase. The Turkish authorities have
ceased surrendering arms and are pre-
tending that the disarmament has been
completed. The British officers propose
to search suspected houses.
They have discovered that many of
the men surrendered to Admiral Noel
as ringleaders of the rioting are inno-
cent, while the guilty are still at lib
erty.

A statement is sent out from Davis
that Dayton has thirty-One hundred
and a few more votes majority over
McGraw. It will be remembered that
this is from the county where the
county chairman resigned because he
does not like Dayton and won't sup
port him. This will probably ex-
plain why the claim was not more
vociferous. II it had gone from Tay-
Tor where all the old soldiers are
against him 1t might have been loud
er voiced. Or even from Berkeley
where the only colored organ in the
state is fighting him and where Grant
PitZer is nursing his sores more would
have been claimed Preston would no
doubt have done better as there are
lots of sore heads over there. Marion
would have been ashamed had she
done no better in view of the fact
that the only republican paper up
there is not for Dayton and he is OPP
posed by every one except the ring.
There are also number Of leading
republicans in this county who are op-
posed to Dayton and who are not 60
ing to vote for him who could have
made louder holer about the ma
jority. That cry sounds too much
like what Dayton said at the conven-
tion to De mistaken for man. It
was a misguided monograph.

Illegal Speed of Street Car.


To the Editor Of The Evening Star:
Your editorial of Tuesday regarding the
death Of a wheelman on the 9th instant,
which resulted from his being struck by a
Metropolitan car on P street was vel
come reading to all who have occasion to
Use that thoroughfare. 1t is well known
that the cars on the Metropolitan line are
run on the down grade from 2Sth street
to 9th street, around the two curves and
over the Rock Creek bridge at a rate of
speed much above the legal maximum
SO lar from going at a rate of six or seven
or ten miles an hour the cars frequently
descend the grade in question at We
locity much nearer twenty. Especially
Is this the case if there has been some
delay on the line. Then car after car
gees flying down the hill at a speed equal
TO that of an ordinary railway train in
the open country.
/ have witnessed already three accidents
due to this illegal speed on the p street
grade. that might easily have resulted
Fatally. In no case was 1t the ability of
the mctorman to check the speed of his car
at the critical moment that prevented such
a catastrophe. Indeed the cars are usually
started dow1 from 2Sth street at such a
rate that II is almost impossible to slow
up before crossing 9th street.
The Metropolitan Company is bound in
return for the valuable franchise 1t holds
to operate Its road with due regard to the
sdlety OF tne people. 1here is no possible
excuse for running street railway cars
under such an ironclad schedule that a
rerifous rate of speed is necessary in orde,
to make up for accidental delays
II is difficult to how verdict of "ac-
cident' could have been returned In the
case which forms the text for your edi-
torial The motorman was certainly re-
sponsible for the safety of the rider who
was directly ahead Of him and in plain
sight. But even If we exonerate that par
tiCular mOtOrman from blame the com :
pany he serves is still responsible for the
death of Weineicke, for it encourages or
pei mtts Its employees to operate it's cars
at an unlawful and dangerous rate of
speed
There has been no attempt to diminish
the speed of the cars on street since the
sad accident happened. AS is usually the
case 1t Will need several such Catastrophies
TO arouse public sentiment and bring the
street railway companies to reason.

Concert at the Academy.

An audience that filled every sea and
NEST of the standing room in the Academy
OF Music assembled at that play house last
night upon the occasion Of the first con-
cert of the present Washington Military
Concert Band. Its leader Is Prof. Chris
Arth, jr., who for years has led the Acad-
envy Of Music orchestra. The program
was well chosen, careful attention being
given to the fact that in these times patri-
otto numbers are what Is wanted by the
popular ear, and as well played. The Or
chestra demonstrated Its worth and ef-
hciency In all the numbers, playing some
In better shape than Others of course, but
on the whole an average was struck that
would do credit to an older and more ex-
perienced organization. Prof Ar;h show
ed that he has the power and intelligence
to direct large body of musicians IN ex-
celent shape and style. All of the num-
bers on the program were acceptable IN
point of popularity and each numoer was
rewarded with an outburst of applause
that In nearly every instance led to an
emphatically demanded encore. The solo,
lists OF the evening were Mrs. Kitty Thomp-
son-Berry and Miss Bertha Lucas Mrs
Ihompson-Berry sang two numbers, a Sc
lection from robin Hood and the "Twi-
light Serenade," scoring distinct hits in
each Miss Lucas played a selection by
Wieaiawski and a Bohm caprice. showing
In each her talent on her chosen instru-
ment.
