New-York tribune., 1901-06-05
THE CONSTITUTION FOLLOWS SUIT.

Following the example of Shamrock III. the
Constitution came 10 grief yesterday. There
was king on board. and consequently the
breaking of her mainmast and topmast was
less startling occurrence than that which
recently resulted in postponement of the Cup
races at Sir Thomas Lipton's request. Nor is
il probable unless the Constitutions hull should
be found TO have suffered strain or some other
serious injury. that the delay due 10 the Sham
rocks mshap will prove convenient to the New
York Yacht Club 1t has never been made
entirely clear why Sir Thomas required so much
time to repair his boat. and il Is pretty safe to
assume that the Constitution will be quickly
put into condition again if she needs nothing
more than n new mast and some new rigging.
Two years ago. on August .. while racing with
the old Defender the Columbia had a similar
accident. which at first was proclaimed to he
little less than national calamity: but two
days later another mast stepped. and
within week she made a brilliant record on
the first days run Of the New-Yor Yacht Club.
We hope there is no reason TO doubt that all
the harm done yesterday can be as readily
undone
The accident to the Constitution can scarcely
be said TO have been unexpected. Certainly
such a misfortune was not needed TO prove
that the modern racing yacht of the Americas
Cup class requires a great deal of testing for
strength rs we'll as speed before she can be
relied on TO do her duty. This by no means
signifies that the whole structure is weak;
indeed. there is ample proof 10 the contrary
But any one Of many minor parts on which
much depends may disclose a flaw with conse-
Quences temporarily serious. For this reason
the process Of tuning up invariably causes much
anxiety and usually brings some hidden defects
to light, but contestant in the great inter
national race has never been found unfit for
her work when the time came. Whether or
not it is TO be regretted that the terms on
which the Cup is held do not encourage the
building OF different type of vessel 10 chal-
lenge for and defend it is another question.

TO IT." Seventy-fve years ago it announced tha'
it would never permit Cuba TO pass uhuer the
control of any foreign power other thail spain
and on numerous subsequent OCCASIONS 1t
repeated that declaration and let 1t be known
that il WAS prepared TO maintain it at cost If
need be. of war with any power whlch might
disnute if. Can any rational man suppose that
now If is going 10 reverse its policy and turn over
to Cuba mower TO ally herself with or sell herself
70 any power she pleases? Three years ago at
tremendous cost the United States interviewed in
C,1ba TO release the island from foreign Oppres
sion and TO save it from disorder and ruin. Is
II conceivable that it will now renounce all
right of intervention no matter what foreign
aggression or domestic disorder may afflct the
island? 1T should be evident to every one that
this country now requires merely that the prece
dents of the past shall be crystallzed into
definite and stated policy for the future, and
that II shall have reasonable facilities for max
ing that policy effective. That is the propo-
stion which is presented TO the Cubans for
their acceptance. And the way to accept is to
accept.
New-York tribune., 1901-06-05
NOT GUILTY..

Some of the disappointed are trying to find
comfort by blaming the horrible degeneracy OF
the Supreme Court upon David b. Hill. "The
Springfield Republican," acting as their spokes-
man, suggests that it is all Mr.. Hills fault, for
if he had not prevented the confirmation of Mr.
Honblower. and later that of Mr.. Wheeler III.
Peckham either of whom would have voted the
Porto Rcan tariff law unconstitutional. Senator
White of Louisiana. would not have succeeded
TO the chair of Justice Blatchford AS Justice
White voted to sustain the consttutionality of
the law, and was an essential factor in securing
that decision, it Is argued that but for Mr. Hills
nursing of his personal enmlties the admins
tration might have been beaten.
That looks plausible but it ignores the fact
that but for Mr. Hills personal enmities Justice
Rufus w Peckham, who voted as these critics
say Mr. IIornbower would have voted. would
not now be on the bench of the Supreme Court.
but in his place would probably be n man OF
other views. Certainly If Mr.. Hornblower had
been confirmed, much more If Mr.. Wheeler II.
Peckham had been President Cleveland would
not have turned again to New-York at the next
vacancy in the court and named the latter's
brother to fill It. When Justice Jackson of
Tennessee. died, II there had been New
Yorker on the bench the President would doubt
less have looked for another Southern man 10
succeed him, and what more natural in such
case than that he should have selected Mr..
White. If Mr.. White seemed to him the right
man from the South In 1894 when the New
York troubles turned his attention In that drcc-
tion he would probably have seemed the right
man in 1895 II the question of n Southern Judge
had been postponed n year. So the complexion
of the court would have been just exactly the
same.
Mr.. Hill's political sins are many. rs have
frequently pointed out.-not perhaps without
certain fervor. But the things he Is really
responsible for are enough Of burden without
blaming him because the constitution does not
follow the flag. Mr.. Cleveland selected Justice
White. and the credit of that excellent selection
should not be given TO his old enemy.
