The United States Consul at Rouen

that city for all sorts of American

there is not such thing as a steam

used by the people OF France are as
a rule arranged so as to burn great
deal of oil and give comparatively lit

1t is a question how much modern
invention Europe viii stand without
losing its charm for the sentimental
American; but one thing is certain,
the American who is interested in
any one modern invention is going to
introduce that as quickly as he can,
and in the meantime he Will make

Increase the Police Force.

The recent epidemic of crime in
the District emphasizes the need of
an Increased police force, and that
very soon. Of course. it cannot be
argued that the number of vicious
offences committed during the last
week is due entirely to the made
quacy Of police supervision, but it Is
absolutely safe TO say that in the
present condition OF things there are
not enough policemen to prevent an
indefinite continuance of the cpl
demic.
Take, for example. the case Of the
woman who was attacked by an uu-
known man in Franklin Park. This

might easily have been successful if
the victim had been less able to make
q determined resistance, or if the as

armed. There was, apparently. no
policeman anywhere near the place
II may be good TO have a police
force ready TO ferret out and arrest
e.fldoers after Il crime is commit
ted, for the sake Of the moral exam
pie afforded and in the interests of
abstract justice, though in order to
do even this there should be a force
