No Hope for the Colon.

NEW YORK, March ia dispatch
to the Herald from Washington says:
The navy department has abandoned
all hope of the recovery of the armored
cruiser Cristobal Colon, sunk in the
battle of July 8. Engineers repre-
senting the Swedish Wrecking Com
pany, who inspected the wreck, have
left for Stockholm without making
any proposition to the department, and
it is assumed from this that no action
will be taken because of the hopeless
ness of the task.

STAMPS ON CHECKS.
Atlanta Journal.

.Alldntd JouIldl.
The war tax act is Il very slouchy
piece Of legislation. 1t is full of uncer-
tanties and in some instances it is inn
possible to determine which party should
pay the tax. This vagueness has led to
much litigation and many appeals to the
authorities ut Washington for their con-
struction of the ambiguous clauses. y
few days ago Commissioner Wilson of
the internal revenue bureau decided that
bankers will not hereafter be permitted
to stamp checks that are presented to
them unstamped, but must return the
same to the drawers.
This decision will cause much incon-
yenence, and we can see no good reason
for it, What the government is after is
the revenue. and what difference does it
make to the government who pays it:
Bankers had gotten used to stamping
checks of absent minded customers, and
in many cases dcpositors have instructed
their bankers to stamp their checks
when they came in unstamped.
The Wilson decision will prevent THIS
sort of agency on the part of the banks.

T. C. TO THE RESCUE.

In the midst of the upheaval we should
not allow the significance, the beauty
and the humor of Thomas [. Platt $
defence of the Presidents Philippine
policy to escape us. The news assocla-
tions' confined readers in this part OF
the empire to bare Statement OF facts
that the famous New York Senator had
grabbed the cudgels and gone after Mr.
McKinlcys critics, but from the papers
further North may be CLEANED several
gems of purcst ray serene. Says the
easy boss:
",rhe President is advised. and ON this
noint his information comes unanimous
ly from all the able men whose official
obligation is to keep the government ac-
curately Informed. that the only hope
of the insurgents lies i'll the efforts they
are making to convince the people that
a. change of government is about to
occur in the United States favorable to
the insurscnt cause: that there is Il gen
pral opposition among the American Poo
ple to the prosecution of the war, and
a fixed purpose on the part of the poll
teal party about to come into powe"
ito withdraw the American army and to
organize the government of Agunaldo.'
There are others. but this will serve
as a sample of Mr.. platt's method OF
controveriipg. The feeling with which
one reads the "defence'' is not so much
one of admiration for the asSiduity with
which the Senator has subscribed to
clipping bureaus and compiled their
output is ii is one of surprise that he
should have felt called to champion the
cause of one who is well understood
not to be favorite with the Senator.
If this was the best that Mr.. Piatt
could do. one will he inclined to doub;
whether the President will feel any par
,ticuiar outflow of gratitude.
Mr.. Plat is pre-eminently politician
who does not waste his energies. and
if this sudden fracturing of the silence
shall seem strange to some it is worth
while to consider that it occurred stimuli
taneously with Mr.. Ayers resignation.
and that Mr.. Platt IS sure 10 have IL
