A BROOKLYN Eagle special from Wash
ington says:
It is understood that break has occur
red between Secretary Root and General
Miles over the reprimand Of the latter by
the former. One thing is certain, General
Miles has not called on the secretary
since the receipt of the reprlmand, ana
his friends declare that he has stated that
he will never again voluntarily call on his
official superior.
All business that has been transacted
between Secretary Root and General
Miles since the incident of December mas
been by correspondence and through the
private secretary of Mr.. Root ana the
aides of the generals staff. Prior to the
reprimand General Miles was a frequent
visitor al the office of Secretary Root, and
his sudden withdrawal has been all the
more remarked. The two men were much
interested in the question OF national
camps. and General Miles was mace the
president of a special board to investigate
the matter. He called often at the Dig
office of the secretary to get advice ana
counsel. 1t was frequently remarked that
the two men were on excellent terms. ana
those who remembered the relations Of the
general commanding and former Secreta-
ry Alger commented on the tact that the
star of Miles was on the ascendency- All
this is now changed. and it is likely that
it will be war between the two men from
now on 1t is known that General Miles
feels very bitterly toward Secretary Root
and toward the president, and that the
wound caused by the reprimand has not
healed at all. 1t is said at the war de-
partment that General Miles has received
a great many letters from friends and
strangers condoling with him for the re-
buke, and expressing sympathy generally.
So far as the president goes, every
thing indicates that he has dismissed the
incident from his mind. The one object
that he sought to achieve has been OBJ
tained-that of silencing the army and ma
w officers on the Schley controversy. If
anything, the president has been more
attentive to General Miles than before.
The general commanding the army was
guest at the diplomatic dinner given by
the president, and as a mark Of special

earned success, who controls the lot of
hundreds of thousands of laborers, and
who conserves the interests of an army OF
investors should be capable of playing the
part OF a gilded youth in the first riot
Gus enjoyment OF his aatrimony or that of
a stock jobber of the Jim Fisk or the
Barney Barnato type. This is not the sort
of man to be i'm a position Of great trust
and Of vast financial responsibility. To
account for the case of Mr.. Scnwab is not
difficult. 1t falls under the head of the de-
moralzing effect OF money earned more
raIidly than it's wise spending has been
learned. Here the social satirist might be
tempted to write n bitter chapter On the
subject OF deferred wild oats. and a very
sordid chapter it would be-of dissipa-
tion after dissipation has lost the glamour
of not blood and high spirits. and of de-
hatchery which borrows no grace of
EpicureaE theory Where many man has
fallen into this slough, one would willing
~ believe that Mr.. Schwab has merely
exhibited the recl<lcssness which makes
such a fall possible In either case his ex-
ample is deplorable."
The New York Times is even severer on
its comments on Mr.. schwab's notorious
exploit ana editorializcs on it in this fash
ion:
The sensation" was due to the reve-
lation that q man who has assumed re-
sponsioilities so numerous and so heavy
should publicly join the intellectual and
social dregs OF Europe around the gaming
tables OF Monte Carlo, and there make n
more or less prolonged effort to beat
n game which to a mathematical certain
~ cannot be beaten. 1t was the folly Of
the proceeding, quite as much as its wick
edness or its bad taste, that shocked the
business world, while the world not of
business noted with disdainful amusement
that this great captain of industry and
finance could find nothing better TO do
with his rare leisure than TO participate
in an ignoble and hopeless battle with the
laws of chance. Perhaps If Mr.. Schwab
had more of the education which IL is his
habit to decry as useless for men of az
fairs he would not have betrayed so pitt
full a lack of mental resources the moment
he was freed from his accustomed occupa-
lions. and. with the doors to all artistic
and historic treasures of Europe opened
nv his wealth, he would not have been
Obliged to offend and alarm so large
fraction of his fellow countrymen."
This indictment of Mr.. Schawb on the
ground that he has exhibited lack Of
sense will probably wound him deeper
than the rebuke Of those who deplore
the fact that he set bad example.
The magnates of the steel combine have
probably considered this matter even
more seriously than the editors who are
drawing lessons from it and preaching
sermons about 1t, but we have seen no
intimation that the young man may lose
his job.

Mr.. TERRELL's ANNOUNCEMENT.

The Journal published Thursday the
resignation Of Attorney General Terrell,
coupled with the announcement that he
is candidate for the Democratic guber-
Material nomination.
Mr.. Terrell had held the Office Of at
torney general about ten years.
In it he won an enviable reputation for
legal ability and scrupulous fidelity to the
rights and interests of the state.
1t has been generally believed for some
months past that he would be a candidate
for governor this year. His formal an
nouncement that he will make the race is
set forth in a manner that is highly cred
liable to him, as a reading of its full text
will show.
He bases his candidacy upon sound Dem
ocratic principles which are admirably
presented. There is no evasion or equivo-
cation when he deals with the questions
upon which the people desire and have
the right to know the views of those who
seek their support for this high Office.
The quality Of Mr.. Terrells Democracy
is proclaimed in unmistakable terms.
Nobody can doubt where he stands on
any important issue which must be con-
sidered in selecting the next Democratic
nominee for governor. Mr.. Terrell is for
tunate in having a record that guarantees
his sincerity of purpose and his high
character both as a man and a public
servant.
He distinguished himself in both bran
ches of the state legislature and in the
office Of attorney general.
He enters the canvass for the governor
ship with a clean record and the ehthusi-
astic support of friends among all classes
of the people in every part of the state.

A DILUTED DOSE.

The advocates Of the ship subsidy
scheme placed IT before the last congress
with great confidence that they would be
able TO rush IL through pretty much as
they pleased. The result shows that they
reckoned without their host.
IL was expected that the Democrats
would be practically solid against the bill.
but no Republican opposition worth con-
sidering was looked for.
Senators Frye and Hanna and Repre-
sentative Payne, the chief directors of
the undertaking. were surprised to find
some Of the strongest men and many lead
ing newspapers OF their party arrayed
against them. The persistent opposition OF
such influential members OF congress- as
Speaker Henderson and Senator Aldrich
and such Republican newspapers as The
Chicago tribune and The Philadelphia
Ledger indicated a very serious Repub-
lican division on this question. Long be-
fore the expiration of the last congress 1t
became evident 10 the most earnest sup
porter OF the subsidy bill that IL could
not command a majority of either house.
The sponsors for the measure got together
last fall and modified II so as TO remove
its most odious features, and their hopes
OF success in the present congress waxed
strong But they find that they are still
confronted by their former opponents and
a large contingent of new ones.
The principle OF the original bill is un-
changed. The attacks upon that principle
have ben carried on necessarily and with
decided effect. All the leading labor or
ganizations have declared as emphatically
49,
the original bill.
And now we find some of the subsidy
advocates admitting that 1t IS beaten
again.
The concession of subsidies to freight
carrying steamers as we'll as the great and
prosperous lines which own the fast pas
senger lines removes the argument
against the discrimination that was at
first proposed in favor Of companies that
are already making enormous profits, but
increases very greatly the number Of
vessels that would receive subsidies.
The accommodating proofs that ships of
almost every character can be built in
the United States at less cost than in
England and the fact that our ship
builders have more business offered to
them now than they can handle nave
knocked the props from under the new
subsidy bin.
A desperate effort will be made TO pass
IL at the present session, but there is
constantly decreasing prospect that it will
succeed.
great majority of the people of this
country are unalterably opposed to a
scheme that would take many millions Of
money from the treasury and distribute it
among a few ship owners who are doing
well on their hook.

GEN. MILES HAS LEARNED.

It may be said truthfully that nothing
that occurred in the era Immediately sue
ceeding the war aroused such general
and intense Indignation throughout the
south as the Stacking of Jefferson Davis
in his prison at Fortress Monroe. Mr..
Davis was as securely incarcerated as
man could be and was surrounded by
military guard. No giant could possibly
have escaped from such incarceration.
The prisoner was a frail man whom ter
rible responsibilities and crushing cares
had worn until his physical strength was
almost exhausted. And yet he was put
into irons with no other possible motive
than to humiliate him, if possible.
The people of the south resented this
treatment Of a man whom they greatly
honored and loved as an outrage upon
him and a cruel insult to them.
1t is not too much to say that this event
had the effect of delaying the Feconcilia-
ton of the sections.

Monroe at the tins.

him with Representative Rixey, of Viz

said: so you, General Miles, are the man
