HAMLET LEFT OUT AT SHIPKA.

Scott made proyerbial, as an image of incom-
pleteness, the play of Hamlet with the part
of Hamlet omitted. In many an incident since
the DAYS Of the Great Wizard of the North that
striking figure of speech has been more or less
realized, but seldom more completely than IN
the commemorative festivities at Shipka Pass
A memorial church has been erected there, and
it was dedicated with imposing ceremonies on
Sunday last. The Bulgarian Government had
charge Of the affair, and it was represented by
Prince Ferdinand himself and his ministers,
while Grand Duke Nicholas and other distin-
guished Russians were there. on special invita-
tion as guests of Bulgaria. There were speeches
by the Prince. the Grand Duke, the Bulgarian
Prime Minister. the Russian Count Ignatief and
others expressive of Bulgaria's gratitude TO
Russia for her liberation and Of Russias affec-
tionate regard for Bulgaria There tablets
In the church inscribed with Russian and Bull
garian names. and these were the object Of
much observation And so was performed 'the
tragedy of Hamlet the character Of the
Prince of Denmark being left out
For the real hero of the Shipka- Plevna cam
paign was not Bulgaria or Russia. but Ru-
mania Down TO the time OF the appearance of
Prince Charles and his Rumanian troops upon
the scene Gourko and Krudener and their Rus
sian legions were driven like chaff before the
furious onsets of Suleiman and the mighty Os-
man. happy If they could prevent the capture
of the Czarowitch himself and the driving or
the shattered Russian army into the Danube
The Rumanians were jeered at and scorned by
the Russians themselves nothing but carpet
knights" who might assume Enthusiastically
warlike guise but who would be worthless, IL
not worse than worthless, in actual battle. Yet
1t was they who turned the tide of conflict,
saved the Russians from destruction and made
1t possible for a free Bulgaria to dedicate q
Christian church at the Shipka Pass-and at
the same time to slight that came Rumania
which saved the day a quarter of a century ago
1t is for the deliberate omission OF any invita-
ton to Rumania, and for the intentional fail
ure TO recognize tc refer to Rumania in any
way. that the performance Of Sunday last Is
chiefly deserving of notice Those manifesto
lions OF Bulgarian spite and Of Russian dsfavor
toward Rumania were by no means unexpected,
Out they are wholly deplorable. Russia is. Of
course, angry because Rumania has allied her
self with Austria Hungary and thus forms a
barrier TO Russia's further advance in the Bal

macedonian Committee" for the crimes which

TIE PARCEL PROBLEM

Much commendanory notice has lately been
given to the action of one of our suburban rail-
roads in establishing stamp system for the
transportation OF the parcels and packages
with which the commuter is proverbially bur-
dened We have DO doubt that the innovation
will prove to he what the late A Ward was
wont TO call a sweet boon. albeit originality
cannot be claimed for Ii, as such a system has
long been in operation elsewhere Almost any
thing is better than to have every other passen-
ger on a suburban train transformed into a
pack mule and half the room in the passenger
cars filled with packages of all sizes, shapes and
conditions Of untidiness: or. on the other hand
TO have daily war between the trainhands
and the passengers. TO prevent the latter from
carrying packages aboard the train, and to COM
Del the hapless suburbanite to intrust his next
mornings breakfast chops to some express COM
pany which viii deliver them three days after
date.
Not even this improvement, however will
free us from the reproach Of being sadly def
cient in means Of prompt and inexpensive
transportation Of parcels The burden bearing
of the suburbanite is bad enough. but even
worse is the problem with which he whom we
may call the urbanite wrestles Let us s1,nnose
that Smith. on lower Broadway. wants to send
a small package, Of pounds weight to Jones
on upper Fifth-ave-, and wants it delivered
within few hours. He may intrust it to an
express company, which Will deliver 1t the next
day-perhaps-for % cents. He NAV mail
f. with special delivery stamp. and get if
delivered in the course Of the same day-for 20
cents. Or he may call in messenger bow and
get him TO deliver it in an hour or two. for from
30 10 10 cents Or. OF course he NAV deliver
ii himself, still more promptly. at a cost NJ
10 cents carfare and anywhere from nothing n
thousands Of dollars worth of time. Really. we
cannot regard any one of these methods as alto.
gether satisfactory and yet We are at loss
10 think Of any others available.
Suppose, however, that instead OF being in
this particularly wide-awake. progressive and
generally UP TO date American metropolis

other in that sleepy, conservative and generally
behind the times British metropolis Of London

FEAR OF THE STEAMSHIP COMBINATIONS

FEAR OF THE STEAMSHIP COHbIHAfioH'
At recent meeting in London to discuss the
probable effect of the consolidation of the trans
atlantic steamship lines the assertion was made
that a monopoly of the transatlantic carrying
business was not possible. In brief, the speaker
insisted that the Atlantic trade was free TO all
and that there could be no combination OF ran
WAYS and transatlantic shipping to raise the
cost of transportation above the rates ohered
by any competing line. Nevertheless consul
cradle apprehension was expressed. ana some
interesting propositions were made.
Lord Charles Beresford suggested three ways
of encoura ging those engaged in the transat-
Iantic business First, he proposed subsidy
or q YEARLY nayment in consideration Of ship
owners providing vessels Of high speed, built
under Admiralty supervision and pledged to be
ar the disposal Of the government in time or
war. His second proposition was that the gov
eminent should take its chances OF finding such
vessels without Encouragement but he could
not apDrove of that plan. His third suggestion
was that the government pay the expenses or
building q ship turn IL over TO company. let
the company run II as II ii were one or It's own
ships under its own management and direction,
and pay back to the government percentage
Of the profits ms interest on the money adj
vanced This latter plan struck him as the
most sensible as it would insure the ship being
absolutely fit and in condition for use if war
should be suddenly declared. But there are
many ships If the passing OF dividends by some
Of the big companies is any guide, that rarely,
II ever show profit, and it is doubtful If there
would be any profit earnings" for the class of
vessels proposed by Lord Charles, built under
Admiralty supervision, 10 steam from twenty
three TO twenty-five knots hour, and TO he
kept in trim for time Of war The probability
IS they would show loss.
