NEWS MONOPOLY"

The New York Times holds that the
decision OF Judge Phillips against the
Associated Press may work a hard
ship upon the small papers of the coun-
try. IL argues that In declaring that
the Associated Press is common car
rier and cannot lawfully limit its news
service to its own members, the court
has laid down principles Of law that
viii have the effect Of establishing
monopoly In news. The Times argues
as follows:
I'VE think II must be apparent TO
every intelligent person who will take
the trouble To think about the matter
that II the primary effect contemplated
by this decision Is produced, that IS, II
demands are made upon the Associated
Press all over the country for us news

or for existing journals not now recelv-
ing its dispatches, and II under Judge
Phillips decision Il finds itself COM
PEELED to sell its service 20 all corners,
then a secondary result viii presently
appear. The large and rich newspapers
OF the country. disseminating the As
ISOLATED Press service, and perhaps dis
solving the corporation. will make an
agreement among themselves for an
exchange OF news. The newspapers OF
New York win supply their news TO
the newspapers Of Chicago In consider
alton Of Ike service OF Chicago news
from the press OF that city. One news

news obtainable IN London, another viii

third will take care of the Orient, and
a fourth Will look out for Cuba Porto
Ricoand Central and South America
and all this news VIII go into the COM
mon pool. In addition. OF course, each

news service as now. This news es-
adjustment for the common supply VIII
necessarily be tremendously costly NO

none but the largest and richest news
papers OF Boston, New York, Philadei-
phia, Chicago ST. Louis and san Fran
cisco would have the ability and the
resources 20 Join In the agreement and
secure its priceless advantages. The
small papers would not be able 10 do
their share in the collection and fur

consequence would be that instead Of

CROWDED CARS.


The City Council IN taking up the
question Of more efficient street car SER
vice Is echoing a quite general senu-
ment. not only IN this city but in every
place where people depend on that mode
OF conveyance to and from the places
Of business. The oyer-crowdlng of
street cars IL really a serious matter
and not without danger to the public
health. II is bad enough when done oc-
casionally. at times Of large gatherings,
but then It Is excusable, as the compan-
les cannot reasonably be expected 20
keep a number OF ears for such occa-
sions. but what can be said when such
oyercrowdlng Is daily occurrence
along some lines? Are not the companies
supposed to have rolling stock enough
for their regular traffic?
A case Of overcrowded cars was re-
Gently brought before a London court
with the result that the rights Of pas
sengers in that city were defined judi
cially It appears that lady entered a
car in which every seat was occupied.
one OF the passengers protested against
her standing In the aisle, whereupon
she grew angry and used some rather
forolble language And not satisfied
with this revenge. she told her husband
about the occurrence. and he went forth
10 annlhilate the protesting passenger.
This brought the matter before the
court, and the Judge in his decision
ruled that persons in car already fun
had a right to protest against others
entering and even had a full legal ana
moral right 10 prevent by force, y hec'
essary. the entrance Of more passengers
than there were seats Tor He also
stated that IL the company issued more
tickets than there were seats the pas
sengers thus incommoded had right
to demand the return Of their money
and could recover IN an action for
damages IL it were refused. Even If
passengers were willing 10 stand In the
car. the Judge held that they had no
right to inconvenience and add TO the
discomfort Of those who were seated
who were entitled to a reasonable
amount OF light and air.
In this country no street car passen-
ger would protest against accommodate
Ing others. within reasonable limits, but
1t would be just as well 10 have an all
round understanding Of what rights the
occupant Of paid -for-seat in the street
car has. II the debates Of the city
Council on the question could dispel the
haze that seems to hover over this sub.
ject, they would not be lost. There
would be more courtesy In the public
conyeyances with that matter clearly
understood.

cRoNJE AND ROBERTS.

The story Of the capitulatlon Of Gen.
cronje reveals the fact that the Boer
leader was required to present himself
IN person at the tent OF his conqueror
as a suppllant for the boon OF un-
conditional surrender. The incident is
now most severely criticized by MILL
tary authorities
Friends Of and sympathlzers with the
British cause IN South Africa cannot but
read with q feeling OF depression and
disappointment Of the humiliation Gen
Cronje was submitted to in surrender
lng 10 Lord Roberts. Both sides OF the
story have not been told. and It would
perhaps not be fair 10 Judge from par
ilal reports. but there can be no doubt
that the "Iion OF South Africa as
Cronje has been called deserves all the
honor and respect a victorious general
can bestow upon brave but conquered
foe
The story Of the humiliation Of Cronje
sounds all the more strange when con-
trasted with the chivalrous and gentle
manly conduct Of the American admir-
ais and generals during the Spanish war
"a conduct that was so much admired
BY all the world. Cronje may not he a
"nobleman," but a warrior who with
q few thousand farmers Is able 20
stand of for ten days a vast army with
modern equipments is no common
man. lie is entitled 20 the treatment
of distinguished soldier.
The capltulation Of cronje Is the first
serious reverse the Beers have suffered
In the entire campaign. 1t may mark
the beginning OF the end. and II So the
English generals can well afford to dis
play that magnanlmity FOR which the
Angio-saxon race should be dlstin-
guished In war and In peace.
