II is probable that the trouble with
the Cubans relative to taeir surrender.
ing their arms has been settled. They
objected strongly to handing in their
guns to the Americans. not only be-
cause it took from them their only
means Of defence in an emergency,
but because it involved humiliation to
them The American view was that
when the Cuban army was mustered
out and received its pay, for which
100000 had been provided by our
government, the soldiers ought to
pass in their arms the same as our own
men DO when mustered out. com
promise was finally effected whereby
the arms are surrendered, not directly
TO the Americans, but TO the native
Cuban mayors, who are appointees of
our government and responsible to it.
As fast as the arms are surrendered,
the soldiers will receive their S75
apiece and it is hoped turn their at
tention TO the pursuits of peace.

The international peace congress at
The Hague has struck snag thus
early Great Britain and the United
States want an agreement that private
property at sea is to be respected, the
same as it is on land. Russia, partic-
ularly, opposes this. Great Britain is
moved to ask for such an agreement
because OF her naval supremacy and
her merchant marine The latter
would be greatly injured if liable to
capture For these same reasons,
Russia takes contrary stand. She is
comparatively weak at sea- but if al
lowed TO engage in privateering, or to
attack the British merchantmen she
could lnflict much damage, in case of
hostilities with Great Britain. On
mere question of right-and-wrong. the
decision must be favorable to such an
agreement, for opposing nations
ought to be satisfied with letting their
armed vessels settle their disagree
ments, without picking off here and
there a defenseless merchantmen and
stealing her largo, which. while in
tlicting perhaps ruin on the few con-
cerned in the ownership Of the vessel
or cargo, has no effect in determining
the issue Of the war 1t is species of
piracy that ought to be done away
with. The numerous captures by our
navy of Spanish merchant vessels last
summer were an example. OF course
when a blockade is established and
maintained, such steps are defensible
but roaming the seas in search of the
enemy's merchant marine ought not
longer to be tolerated Considerations
Of this kind are not likely to prove
conclusive at the congress. however.
Selt-interest will also be taken into ac-
count.

FINED FoR WASTING WATER.
Recorder to Use Discretion in Fixing
Responsibility.

several agents of property were before
Recorder Hartridge in Police Court yester-
day for violating the ordinance against
the waste of water. That the city intends
to enforce the law is shown in the fines
imposed. A nominal fine was imposed on

The ordinance seems to admit of the
exercise of considerable discretion by the

provided both shall be placed on the docket
and shah be subject to a fine. at shall

police officer learning the facts, to at once

occupants, of any premises where water

Is permitted to leak or waste in any way,
and such occupant or occupants shall be

Court, 70 a fine not TO exceed $50 and i'm

shall also be the duty of the inspector or
other officer to have the supply of water

has been repaired
The last section provides that the owner
or owners of premises where such leak Is
permitted shall also be subjected to a pros
ecution under the ordinance, and to the
penalties prescribed therein.
Where the occupant and owner are both
placed on the docket. 1T was the intention
of Council TO have the occupant released
if he showed that due notice of the leak
had been given to the owner. If such
was not the case, it is stated the circum-
stances would control but that the occu-
pant would not be blameless for his negli-
gence in calling on the owner TO have the
necessary repairs made.
THE object in making both liable" said
Mayor Myers, was to keep those respon-
sible from sinking responsibility. Under
the ordinance the inspectors are able to
get all the parties in court, when the Re
corder may not have a great deal OF
trouble determining just who is RESPONSE
BILE. 1t was not the intention of Council
to have the occupants fined where they
showed they had exercised due diligence
in having necessary repairs made to the
fixtures"
While the ordinance was being read the
second time, Alderman Thomas asked the
question before the second section had
been. read why the owners of property
were not included. his evident object be.
ing to get all parties before the court. AL
derman Bacon, who introduced the ordi-
nance, stated that he had included the
owners in the second section, making
them also subject to the spenalties pre-.
scribed.

by Chairman Dixon, who now rdss in

In making appointments, the Mayor was
cautious about the alderman he pitt at
the head of the street and lane seommit-
tee. for the reason he has to give much
attention TO his duties, The use of good
Judgment, and prompt attention to the con-
dillon Of streets and walks, is what he
must employ 70 keep the administration on

Since Chairman Dixon has taken unto
himself buggy, a privilege all his prede-
