OF course this murder greatly increases
the gravity of the situation. If the

about the murder of an ambassador, no

tory where the instruction exists, and
as the instruction is fast spreading
all over the empire unless it is
checked it will be but a short time
before no foreigner will be safe
anywhere in China. There is no
use discussing now the ultimate fate of
the empire or what is to he done after the
1nsurrection is put down. The thing
now is to put it down, AMI to that end
there ought to be, and probably viii be,
cordial cooperation among all the powers.
Action to this end cannot be too speedy
or too vigorous. Every days delay swells
the tide Of fanaticism, and makes it more
difficult to cope with it. Whether the
Empress Dowager is secretly or openly
in sympathy with the Boxers, or is only
powerless to control them, makes no real
difference. The Chinese government
will not or cannot crush the Instruction,
and so it is devolYed upon the powers to
do it. When quiet is restored the future
OF the Empire may be attended to but
just now purely academic questions
should be ruled out The one thing
is to restore law and order in the coun-
try, an d rescue the foreigners from the
deadly peril which they are evidently in.
OF course to this end the United States
must cooperate, However much she may
differ with the powers as to the general
policy to be pursued toward the empire.

Further details of the Hoboken fire
only serve to intensity the seriousness OF
the disaster. The loss of life is likely to
reach the highest figure of Saturdays es-
innate and possibly exceed them. AS
great many of the bodies were entirely
consumed, it will only be possible to de-
termine the loss Of life by the number
of persons employed upon the ships and
on the wharves, and this will require
considerable time. How the fire caught
is yet not fully determined, and very like
" never will be. A spark from pipe
or cigar may have done the mischief.
though spontaneous com bustion is sug-
gested. The exceedingly rapid spread of
the fire is explained by the high wind
and the great mass of inhammable ma
terial at hand. Once the fire was well
started the heat became so intense that
intiananable material a long distance
away suddenly burst into flame. One of
the worst features Of the affair is the bru
tality and greed displayed by some of the
tug boat captains who, in their mad race
for chance to earn salvage, left scores
OF people who might have been saved,
to perish. 1t is gratifying to know that
the men who were guilty Of that con-
duct are likely to be severely punished.

Boss Croker intimates that he does not

care much, either, whether the ticket
nominated is successful or not. Croker
has principality of his own, and as
long as his sovereignty over that is
recognized he is content. He is for Bryan
simply because Bryan is sure to be nomi-
mated. Anybody else would get his
support just as quickly, no matter what
he stood for, provided he was certain to
get there. He wants to be with the
