NEW-YORK'S TRIBUTE.

New-York will to-day pay her own especial
tribute 10 the memory OF ROchambeau, and to
the we'll remembered and cherished friendship
of the great nation whose banner and arms RO-
chambeau bore to our aid in our triumphant war.
1t was of course. fitting and essential that such
festivities should be deferred until after those
Washington. Participation in the latter was
the prime purpose of the coming of the distin-
guished visitors 10 these shores. and there, en-
bodied in the stately monument, the supreme
tribute TO Rochambeau was appropriately paid.
But il is well that our French guests have come
straight from the nations political capital to its
capital of population, commerce. industry and
social culture and that here they should be re-
ceived with the hospitality for which this city
has long had honorable repute. The formal and
official tribute was paid in Washington. The
popular tribute is best TO he paid in this city.
which is of all most truly national in its epitome
of American life and which is probably the most
truly cosmopolitan in the world.
New-YOrk is identified in peculiar measure
with the events to which ROchambeau contrib
uted in this country. and with the nation OF
which he was so worthy a representative Some
of the most interesting suburbs of New-IOTk,
and indeed some parts of the city itself within
its present bounds. were originally settled by
his countrymen, whose descendants have be-
come highly esteemed element of COM
pOsite community. French names and memories
of France abound in and about New-York. One
of the most beautiful of our avenues Is named
for ROchambeau's llustriOus cOmpatriOt, Lafay
cite. who himself was received i'm this city
with popular attention little short of actual
homage NewYOrl, moreover. was noteworthy
in the history of our revolution, and the first
capital of the republic in the early history of
the United States and its government 1t was
here that the results of the great victory to
which ROchambeau contributed so much were
constitutiOnally established for all time.
New-YOrk. therefore, bids welcome to the rep
resentatives of ROchambeau and of ROcham-
beaus fatherand. II has welcomed many for
ein guests and has bestowed its freedom upon
not a few. 1t has been able to do so. and is
able to do so to-day, in part through its cos
mopOlitanism, making the visitor feel as though
he were in his own land. Most of ALL trust,
it does through its genuine Americanism.
quality which comprises within itself hospi-
tality, courtesy, kindness and genuine friend
ship TO all the world. and in the present case
also sincere and perpetual gratitude to our
chivalrous First Ally.

diers in general If some of them sometimes
overstep the limits of proper warfare We have
held, however 10 the necessity of maintaining
the standard of civilization and conducting
campaigns with strict regard 10 the laws or
war The government may properly pardon
individuals who are strained TO the breaking
point for their errors but it must also unnis-
takably condemn those errors.
In cOndemning the eXceSSes Of Major Waller
and the alleged order Of General Smith we do
not mean that severity and retaliation have not
a lawful and proper place in war. We have no
sympathy with the notion that Filipinos can
murder and torture and bury our men alive
without paying sharp penalty. Plotting against
American troops within American lines should
be punished. Guerilla warfare should be put
down. AS we have hitherto pointed out. the
Leber Code. which governed the United states
in the Civil War. provides for the most severe
measures TO compel an enemy to regard the
rules of war. That code justifies many of the
acts which critics of the Philippine campaigns,
who are more concerned for the SutferngS OF
Tagal bandits than of American soldiers. de
nOunce as ruthlessly cruel. Just as far as that
code goes American officers in the Philippines
are justified in going. but they must be held
strictly within the line so drawn.

LIGHT THE LAMPS.

When the popularity of bicycles was at the
top notch and our avenues, streets and parks
were crowded with the wheels. the regulations
concerning the use of lights on the machines
were enforced with rigor. Troops of bicycle
policemen were always on the watch. and were
swift in making arrests when they could lay
hold of any rider whose lamp was unit. There
were amateur detectives also who were bent
upon the capture and the punishment of the
Needless pleasure seekers.
\ few seasons ago how sorely beset were
the bicycle riders whose lamps tliCkered ana
went out when the men in the saddle least ex-

Tins of misplaced confidence In acetylene or
some other means for dispelling the gloom OF
the night were hailed without pity to police
stations, harassed by unsympathetic captains
and sergeants and compelled to put their
wheels in bond for their appearance before hard
hearted magistrates next morning when they
were usually fined heavily.
The curtain has fallen upon that state OF
things. and the pendulum has swung over TO
the other end of the arc. Now bicycles without
lamps go wildly careerng about our hOrOughs IN
all hours after sunset. The plain truth is that
the ordinances as to bicycles and automobiles,
which should be enforced rigidly at all times,
are practically n dead letter.

NO L4WLESS WARF4RE.

General Chaffee in disappearing the court
martial findings in the cases of Major Waller
and Lieutenant Day. charged with executing
natives in Samar without trial. takes a highly
commendable course. He firmly maintains the
American standard of civilization. while at the
same time he pays due regard TO the eXtenuat-
ing circumstances which explain. though they
do not excuse. the deeds of those officers. Major
Waller had been through suferings which made
him hardly responsible for his retaliation. and
his subordinate had the warrant of orders for
the executions though they were the orders Of
a sick man which he ought TO have taken the
responsibility of disobeying. Under such cir
cumstances TO hold either guilty of murder
would have been unjust but the good name of
the American army required the emphatic dis
approval of such eXcesseS- and the issue of a
warning that the United States will not permit
its officers and men TO wage lawleSs warfare
even against savages.
When the Samar campaign WAS first brought
10 public attention by the Waller court martial
and the alleged orders of General Smith The
Tribune declared that the sort Of war they were
charged with waging must not be sanctioned.
on May 1 we said: I'VE would not anticipate
sthe verdict of the court martial at Manila or
sthe ultimate disposition OF the case by the

knowing well the hard problem before his

severity and retaliatory excesses. Probably the
members Of the court martial themselves felt
the distinction, but hnding-and justly finding
that the delinquent officers acted under con-

crime which their acts were said TO constitute,
