The Amiable Thomas.

Sir Thomas Upton, with character
istic fairness and good sense, declares
that there is nothing in the complaint
so often made by previous challen-
gers for the Americas cup, of the
handicap placed upon them by the ne
cessity of constructing yacht strong
enough to cross the Atlantic.
This grievance, says the New York
Times, has been variously exploited,
sometimes as an excuse and some
times as an explanation for the re-
suits of the races. but Sir Thomas will
have none of it. A boat strong
enough to carry the rigs provided for
the actual contests, he says, has little
to fear from an ocean voyage under
vastly reduced sail, and, as n matter
of fact, the defenders have been fully
as able to make such voyages as the
challengers.
Still, Sir Thomas admits, merely in
the interests of history, that it is n
disadvantage to be obliged to come so
far to meet your rival. In the first
place, he says, it costs lot of money,
and. in the second place, it takes a lot
of time which the home boat can util-
ize in practice sailing under race con-
ditiOns.
The force of both these statements
is perfectly obvious, and, presented as
Sir Thomas presents them, merely as
necessary and inevitable features of
the yachting game, internationally
played. they do not produce a trace
of the irritation always caused by the
talk about the ocean voyage handicap
as something unfair. or at least deeply
regrettable by those who suffer from
it.
To recognize facts is one thing, to
imagine them as solace for defeat is
another. and widely different Sports
men do the former and Dunravens the
latter.

Japan certainly does not brighten
easily, as is evidenced by the occur
renee at the mouth of the Yalu river
the first part of last week, when a
gunboat of the mikado's navy politely
but firmly told a Russian vessel that
it could not pass up the stream and
enter the port of Yangampho. Korea.
About the middle of August it was of
-ficially reported that Korea had
granted a Russian lumber company a
20 years lease on $50 acres of timber
land in Yangampho, with the right to
purchase at reasonable prices all the
lumber fioated down the Yalu river
by KEN subjects. This would have
given the Russian company, which
means the nation itself, a practical
monopoly of the lumber trade of the
Yalu valley, and this would have eff
fectually barred out of Mauchuria lum-
Der companies of other nations, for

Another grand stand horror is re-
ported, this time from Leavenworth,
Kans. There is hardly any reasonable
excuse for an accident of this kind.
The coroner's jury should investigate
such cases and the responsible parties
should be punished for criminal care
lessness. One or more persons are
usually responsible for such catas-
trophies. To paraphrase the old adage
to some extent, it would be better
that one careless man should be
hung now and then, rather than a lot
of innocent men be smashed to pieces
by the fall of a grand stand.

The officials in charge of the post
Office investigation promise more i'm
portant indictments in the near flu
ture. An apparent attempt to let the
investigation die out recently met
with such a storm of indignant edi-
tOrials from the republican as well as
from the democratic press, that there
seems to be renewed energy instilled
into the situation, and the promise of
more indictments" is received in
good faith. 1t is not judicious to say
against whom these indictments are
to be rendered. but it may be said
that they concern the legal end of the
postoffice department. The fact that
the postal inquiry is revived will be
news to IA great many people who
thought it was dead.

W. j. Bryan's acceptance and open
support of the senatorial candidacy in
Ohio of Mr.. Clarke, who supported
Palmer and Buckner in 1896, and who
openly declares thai he is still, as he
was then, opposed tt the free coinage
of silver. is creditable to his good
sense, his patriotism and his democ
racy. 1t should have some effect up
on those who make IT the business of
their lives to go about stirring up
strife among democrats, in the name
of Mr.. Bryan, and claiming to be his
special followers.

The Pittsburg Post, published right
in the hard coal district, thinks it
is rather remarkable that the price of
anthracite coal has been boosted in
face of the fact that there is such a

have been compelled to shut down.

lowing the heavy drop I'm quotations which

the result of overestimated credits and

as is indicated by the figures at which rail-

The indications are that the situation in

follow that which has been going on in the

The Ffnancier says: The official state
ment Of the New York associated banks
last week showed a loss of S.3oe.6o cash.
while the estimates which were based on
the traceable movements of money during
the week ending with Thursday indicated
a net loss to the banks of only sDs. 100. The
discrepancy between the amount OF loss as
disclosed by the bank statement and the
m loss was in part due TO the fact
that the stimae took no account OF the
Withdrawals from the banks on Friday OF
s., SAC, 600 gold for shipment TO Europe on
Saturday. This discrepancy probably was
also caused by the fact that the week COW
cred by the bank return embraced the six
business days ended on Friday. while the
estimates covered the six days ended ON
Thursday. The loss OF cash shown by the
banks was largely accounted for. however,
by a reduction Of about sl0.Ovo,co0 I'm the

of the subscriptions to the new stock OF

The statement therefore was not <Ar out
