The Russian Tarin war.

The last long press despatch from St
Petersburg relative TO the tariff war
between the United States and Russia
contains strong internal evidence Of
having been inspired by those who take
Ar. Cages view Of the sugar contro-
versy.
The despatch is ingeniously framed.
1t puts Russia in the wrong, but with
just enough Of suggestion the other
way 10 give it an air Of candor and
fairness. The position is taken broad
~ that The Russian regulation of the
internal trade in sugar amounts to a
bounty upon the export Of that com
modify. At the same time the writer
cautiously admits that Mr.. Cages ac-
ti0n in so holding might not have been
well advised. II Mr.. Gage was clearly
right IN the matter. there is no room
for any question as 10 whether or not
his action was well advised He took
the ground that the law left him no op-
tion in the matter. Hence. II the pri-
mary fact is established that Russia
pays & bounty. Mr. Cages duty is
plain. and there is no point in talking
about his action being ul-adyised.
such a suggestion is only pertinent in
the event Of there being some doubt on
the question OF whether Russia actual
ly pays a bounty. That there was
room for doubt is too clear for argu-
ment and Mr. Cages mistake lay IN
not giving Russia the benefit of the
doubt which was raised partly by her
absolute denial, and partly by the cir
cunstances Of the case.
Then the despatch proceeds:
Whether trucking is now political
expedient is another question. The
United States must meet Russia half
way. But. II Russia desires a COM
slercial war, we should fight" Note
she we" in the last sentence, IShich

INGENIOUS MIR. WILSON.

Good old Farmer Wilson, the Secretary
of Agriculture. bears to the nations eager
ears the cheering tidings that the sugar
trust is about to be smashed and ruined.
How is this much-desired result to be pro-
duced? Why by the extension Of the beet
sugar industry.
THE trust" says Mr. Wilson, will van
ish then for the reason that it refines i'm
ported brown sugar while all the Ameri-
can factories will furnish the finished
product and place it in entire readiness
for sale on the markets
AS the American Sugar Refining Com
pany owns all the beet sugar factories In
the country and Will own all that may
hereafter be built. 1t Is evident that Far
mer Wilson should stick 20 his weevils
and leave the field of financial and eco
nonic speculation to Brother Gage.-Chi-

THE VOLUNTEER REGIMENTS.

Though these regiments did an immense
amount of work in the Philippines, yet
the distinction between them and the reg
ulars was ineffaceable. a name does not
make a great difference after all. and
the volunteer regiments accordingly felt
the distinction seriously. Yet this sense
that they were set apart from regiments
that they equaled at least in zeal and
efficiency never affected the courage and
energy of the volunteers They perform
ed good service. Perhaps the most dis
tinguished single feat of arms performed
in the Philippines was the heroic defence
of Catubeg by n detachment of the Forty
third, which fought doggedly and sue
cessfully against tremendous odds. The
volunteer regiments were hardy and in
telIigent. These qualities, regulated and
directed by officers of the Regular Army,
professional soldiers, account in great
measure for the slight losses by disease
suffered by the Volunteers.-BostOn Tran

As we construe the last official report
OF General Macarthur as commander Of
the Department. Of the Philippines, that dis
tinguished officer must have sailed Thurs
day for home on the transport Meade.
He has richly earned a summer holiday
to be followed by a first class assignment
to cool command. The Department of
the East would be not too good for him.

FAITH CURE KILLS WOMAN
BELIEVER NOW UNDER BAIL FOR
THE DEATH OF HIS CHILD
FEW MONTHS AGO

From developments yesterday more trouble is
in store for j. Luther Pierson, the faith curst.
VINO convicted some months ago before
Judge Lent, in the County Court of West
chester. for allowing his child to die without
medical attendance. Pierson is out bail
his having been taken to the Court of APP
peals. Judge Lent sentenced Person to pay
fine of $500 The case being the first of it's kind
to come under the laws of this State. Justice
Keogh of the Supreme Court granted Pierson
stay, pending a decision from the Court of
Appeals.
1t Will be remembered that Pierson was en-
ployed in one of the departments of the Hudson
River Railroad. and lived in pretty cottage at
Valhalla, overlooking Kensico Lake. 1t seems
that an elderly woman, Mrs. Ford, has lived
at the Pierson home for time. She
known to faith cursts Sister Ford, and
a preacher of the faith. Mrs. Ford had been
ailing for many months Neighbors of the
Pierson family wanted them TO call in DOCTOR
but they refused. DIR. De Hart. OF White Plains
was finally allowed to see Mrs. Ford some days
ago. He diagnosed her cystits and
pronounced her condition critical.
On this occasion, when Mrs. Ford DR. De
Hart, she said to him, THE eyes of the whole
State of New-York upon me- because of the
disgrace brought on me by having a physician
instead Of trusting in Divine healing"
DR.. De Hart, realizing Mrs. Fords serious con-
dition, called several times subsequently but
permitted to enter the house. His
last attempt was about ten days ago. Neither
Mrs. Ford nor the Persons would allow the doc
tor to prescribe for her, and she died yesterday
morning J. T. Lockwood. undertaken,
sent for. 1t said that Dr. De Hart would
give the undertaken a certificate of death. The
doctor refused TO give the death certificate, say
ing that he had never prescribed for Mrs. Ford.
Coroner Russell then took charge of the case.
He instructed DR.. De Hart to make a post
morten examination. The coroner said he would
hold who responsible for the womans
death. DR. De Hart went to the Person home
to-day. He said that Mrs. Ford's body
much emaciated, and rigor mortis was we'll
marked. The doctor made this statement in
connection with the case.
I believe that death the result of mis-
directed attention and neglect OF the ordinary
condition under which the deceased had labored
hard for the last eighteen months.
Mrs Ford had been in bed for a year depend
ing upon Divine healing and prayers TO restore
her health. Coronel Russell will give the
a thorough investigation. The people at Val
halla are much exercised over the case, and de-
nounce the Pierson family bitterly.
