TWO EVER FRIENDLY POWERS.

1t was observed the other day, in connection
with the new Dual Alliance that Great Britain
and Germany were two Powers which had never
been at war with each other. The statement
Is literally true, and it is highly impressive
and significant fact There are no other Pow
ers that have played greater parts in the history
OF Europe during the Christian era Each of
them has, at one time or another, been at war
with almost every other important nation. But
never once have they crossed swords with each
other. It is true England has on several oeca-
sions fOrcibly interfered in German affairs and
has fought against certain individual German
States. But she has done so only in ALLIANCES
with other German States, and she has TINS
been opposed to France and to the German
States which were allied with France against
their own brethren, and her purpose In such
cases has been TO fight not Germany. but
France. Such was the case in the wars of the
Reformation, when England sided with the
Protestant States of North Germany. and in
the wars of William III and Anne. In the
Seven Years War and the Napoleouic wars
England was allied with Prussia against
France. and to-day Prussia Is the paramount
State OF the German Empire.
All this is of course. quite fitting and natural
The English and German peoples are united by
ties OF blood and Of religion. They come from
the same racial stocf The German Fmneror

described England as a Teutonic State. They
are much more nearly alike in mental and
moral characteristics than any other two great
peoples of Europe. They are, moreover, largely
possessed of the same spirit and aim in social,
industrial and political affairs. There is, we
know, an old saying that two of trade cannot
agree, but it is a cynical half truth. Two of
trade are rivals, competitors, and thus are con-
stantly trying to outstrip each other. They are
opponents in small details. But when the gen.
eral welfare of the trade is at stake they agree
in its defence quickly and surely. So two ma
tons that are kin may have their petty wran-
glings and jealousles Great Britain and Ger
many have had plenty But in the last analysis
Of great issues they stand resolutely side by
side Between themselves they have their
differences: to all the rest of the world they
show a united front
This is a matter of good omen to the two
Powers concerned and also to the world at
large For the general influence of each of
these Powers is so uniformly for good for
peace and Cor progress that the character of
their united influence cannot be for moment
in doubt To the United States the matter Is
one Of especial interest, because, while 1t makes
no entangling alliances with foreign Powers,
this Nation is by natural ties bound more closely
to these two than to any others in the world.
Ours is a composite Nation. with elements
drawn from every land. But the overwhelming
mass of it has been drawn from the lands
which lie beneath the British and the German
flags It is the policy of the United States to
cultivate peace and friendship with all nations,
and it is its happy privilege to- be able to cuiti-
vate the friendship of any one without In
curing the enmity Of any other. There is
therefore no manifestation of unfriendliness or
of lack Of sympathy toward other nations in
feeling a peculiar pleasure in this beneflcent
concord of the two great Powers which are so
closely akin to each other and, each and both OF
them to US.

THE SECOND BRIDGE TO BROOKLYN.

THE SECOND BRIDGE TO BROOKLYN.
The desire and the need for the earliest pos
sible increase Of the means OF travel between
Long Island and the Borough of Manhattan
are so general and urgent that countless regrets
will be expressed because a new cause Of delay
in the construction of the East River Bridge
has just been set up. That stiff task of raising
a second gigantic structure over the water be-
tween the crowded spaces on either side of
the estuary which joins New-York Bay with
Long Island Sound fell into the hands Of Tam
many Hall soon after Mayor Van Wyck had
been sworn in. Since the members of the origi-
nal Commission which had charge Of the East
River Bridge were turned out Of their places to
make room for loyal followers of the Wigwam
a disposition has been apparent to use the
scheme for all 1t is worth for the advantage Of
the Democratic chieftains and their friends. An
easy-gong disposition to avoid haste, to pro-
mote the plans Of certain Democratic organiza-
tons, and to see to it that favored politicians
should wax fat has i,cn obvious to all who
have been watching the progress Of the bridge.
Now there is a question Of the payment OF
extremely high wages on a certain part of the
work.
Corporation Counsel Whaen has not earned
the reputation of watchdog Of the municipal
treasury; in fact. he is so generous In his
opinions TO me Iammany IreeDooterS VINO are
always after loot that conservative taxpayers
are in danger of fits when they think Of the
mischief he has done already and the further
mischief which he is likely to do Mr.. Whalen
is heartily in favor Of throwing out the bids of
contractors who do not pay excessive wages to
faithful Tammany voters, and as the result of
his legal advice the completion of the much
needed East River Bridge may be considerably
delayed. Our Tammanys Corporation Counsel
was for a long time stone wall against rapid
transit When the list Of public spirited New
Workers in the closing years of the nineteenth
century is finally made UP it will be impossible
TO find John Whalen's name with microscope.

MUSIC.
THE KNE1sEL QUARTET.

There were several causes Of rejoicing for the
lovers Of chamber music at the concert with which
the KneIseI Quartet opened The serious season at
Mendelssohn Hall yesterday afternoon II was
first OF ALL a delight to welcome back the artists
who stand for the highest that is offered in the
realm OF pure music It pleasant to greet
again Mr. Ludovic Breitner. who took part in the
concert. musician OF like seriousness and beauty
Of purpose with Mr. Kneisel and his associ-
ates: and also 1t was gratifying to make
the acquaintance In tire sonata for pianoforts and
viooncello by Richard Strauss which Mr. Breltuer
played with Mr.. Schroeder. OF piece OF music
which. compared with the latest compositions OF
the same youthful genius. was like umpid lake
rejecting bright skies and finges Of brilliant flow
ers IN contradistinction 70 turpid and brackish
pools. The sonata was Strauss opus s. and has
been in Mr. Schroeder's repertory for fifteen years
II being that long ago that he played II with the
composer in Leipsic. We can recall no performance
Of it here previous to that OF yesterday. Both
artists played It with obvious appreciation OF its
sake OF the record. that composition by Richard
Strauss gave keener pleasure 70 New-YOrk
audience than this written when the composer was
youth and long before he conceived his mission
to be to demonstrate how generous and unlearned
child of nature Richard Wagner was Messrs.
Breitner and Schroeder won warm applause with
each movement and were heartily recalled at the
end OF the sonata
This feature Of the concert preceded By
Beethoven's Quartet op. IS. No. 5. and Dvoraks
Quartet in z fat, op. 81. In both works the
ganization played with marvellous freshness and
purity of tone and that superb finish for which y
is famous. Notwithstanding that the weather

the part Of Mr. Kneisel might have enhanced the
general effect especially in the finale OF the Dvorak
Quartet. in which Of the wildness OF Slavic
