THE LOWELL STRIFE.

The reopening Of the Lowell cotton mills,
which have been closed for two months. marks
4 new phase in the history of the strike Of
those operatives who are responsible for the
recent lamentable state of things. For the
strike is still on, and although it appears to
be doomed 30 failure its continuance will
cripple the operation Of the mills very pa
terially.
When re reflect that the Massachusetts
Board OF Cancellation and Arbitration reported
within less than month after the strike be
gan and after a most careful and impartial eX-
animation. that the claim Of the mills that
they cannot afford to increase wages is sus-
+tained' except in the case of the Lawrence
Manufacturing Company the persistence of
the unions in still holding out for an increase
in wages is both surprising and instructive.
In some respects this strike has been con
Quoted in creditable manner; in spite Of the
suffering caused. the union men seem to have
converted portion of those who were not in
favor of the strike though detailed facts as to
the number converted may not be available
and, on the whole. there has been little aIlega-
ton Of violence or other intimidation Per
haps this latter feature was largely due TO the
fact that the skilled operatives among the
strikers could make the strike pretty effective
without adopting any means Of direct coercion.
but the comparatively mild conduct OF the
strike is still significant in a more general way.
What have the unions expected to gain:
Nominally an increase Of wages. But to de-
mand such an increase after il has been de
monstrated that the mills cannot afford TO pay
il is TO put the unions in the wrong upon their
own issue and thus to weaken their strength
with the general public, however such OBJ
stinacy may be admired by a certain class of
workers. It Is, therefore, difficult to draw but
one inference from the present attitude OF the
unions involved and their sympathizers, name
ly. that the question of wages is not at the
bottom Of the struggle. but the question Of
prestige. of class victory or defeat. The unions
apparently desire. not merely the wages, but
the glory Of having forced the mills to an
understanding. Any concession, large or
small, on the par of the mills would be a
victory; but to see the mills reopen, to give
up the strike and then, perhaps. at some
future time when the mills can afford it, TO
receive exactly the 10 per cent increase now
demanded by voluntary action the part of
the mill owners would not be a concession,
would not be glory or victory. Yet just such
an outcome may reasonably be looked for; and
the effect Of the whole strike may be to in
crease the dislike Of many employers 10 deal
with organized labor at all.

THE SWORD ~ GERMANY.

Huessner. the young ensign III the German
Navy who Killed his friend and former ciass-
mate because the latter, who was only PR
yate did not salute him properly, mas peeh
sentenced to four years and one week I'M
prisonment and degradation. His victim, VINO
had been his classmate at school. his neishDor
and his friend. met him at their old nome
saluted him in a familiar way and was prompt
ly punished for his presumption by the
rufianlv ensign, who deliberately ran him
through with his sword
In the eyes of the officers who decided the
fate Of the murderer the crime was not 30
horrible as it appears to u.s. because they had
been taught, as had the young ensign, that
German officer must use his sword Wheh ne
draws it. That was the defence offered by the
convicted man, who is looked upon by some OF
his fellow officers as a martyr, and who him
self does not realize that he committed a das-
tardly crime.
Viewed in the proper light, the man is not
so blameworthy as the system of which he is
an outgrowth For years there has been a
pretence on the part of the German Govern
ment to better the condition Of the private SOL
der who had always been subjected to bru-
ta!ities at the hands of his superiors- The
"gemeiner' had few rights and a burdensome
life and despite the fact that orders have Deen
promulgated that the Kaiser did. not approve Oh
the severe treatment of the men, and that re-
forms have been instituted and despite the
fact that officers have been compelled to drop
the familiar "du" when addressing the men,
they still lord it, over the poor private to the
latter's discomfort. Only short time ago the
Crown Prince OF Saxe-Meiningen issued an
order as a corps commander on the subject OF
the treatment of the private but until the Old

FOOLISH TALK IN THE COAL REGION.


The talk about another strike in which rep
resentarves Of the anthracite miners organiza-
lion sre INDUCING does not produce an i'm
preston Of sincerity. 1t suggests rather an eff
fort 70 obtain some advantage of position in
the present controversy with the operators over
the manner Of constituting the Board OF Con-
cfliatioD for which the Commissions findings
provided. The miners are said to feel that they
have various grievances to complain Of. but
the dispute which is now causing some anxiety
relates TO only single question The Com
missions award set forth that eff there shall
s'be q division OF the whole region into three
districts, in each OF which there shall exist an
'ores nization representing majority Of the
~nnine workers Of such district. one OF said
Board Of Cancellation shall be appointed by
leach Of said organizations" In strict ac-
cordance, as they say. with that provision, the
three district presidents were respectively des-
ignated by the three district boards; but the
contention of the operators apparently is that
ibis was an avoidance Of the Commissions de-
cree-that the miners representatives on the
Board Of Cancellation should have been chosen
NJ vote Of all the men concerned. To that
she miners retort that the operators representa-
lives were not elected by the stockholders. but
appointed by the boards OF directors of the
COiIpaltless 10 WHICH OWL tUellOl OF
pointment is strictly analogous If It is true
as some officers OF the coal companies say, that
there IS no personal objection TO the three dis
Srfct presidents, the public is likely to conclude
from what 81 has thus far been permitted TO
know about the situation In general that there
IS no need of q bitter conflict on this point
A clearer view of the case may soon be OBJ
sainable but ia the mean time we commend
10 the consideration of all concerned the dis
passionate statement IN which Mr.. Truesdaie
president OF the Delaware, Lackawanna and
Western Railroad Company. pointed out yester-
day the true solution of the difficulty. Having
declared that the operators without single
exception. so far as he knew. were not merely
willing but extremely DESTROYS. TO carry out
the terms OF the Commissions award, not only

zion. Hr Truesdaie went on to say:

poinrrrert Of umpire by Of the circuit

THE BRIDGE ROADWAY.

The proposal is again put forward TO e7pe-
dite trolley traffic on the Brooklyn Bridge by
putting i continuous fence between the car
tracks and the rest of the roadway. Thus
trucks carriages and ali other vehicles would
be shut off from the car tracks, and the cars
would be enabled 10 run at a higher rate of
speed and without delay. These latter results
might and probably would be secured, but
some intolerable evils would by the same act be
entaied.
Under such a system It would be impossible
for one vehicle to pass another Oh the bridge
roadway. All would have to move in single
file at the pace of the slowest. That is TO say,
no vehicle could, save at rare and exceptional
times. cross the bridge at anything faster than
q walking pace That would be intolerable TO
the occupants Of light vehicles, and indeed to
drivers OF a great many business wagons.
During the rush hours 1t would cause vast
congestion of traffic. It is now nc uncommon
sight To see a score or more Of vehicles crowded
together in Park Row waiting for 4 chance to
20 upon the bridge. What would the jam be
II every vehicle on the bridge were restricted to
a foot pace: And what would be the result
whea-as often occurs--a vehicle Is halted for
a time on the bridge by breakdown or balky
horse or too heavy load On the upgrade?
Every vehicle behind ii on the bridge would be
hopelessly stalled
No, TO that scheme the objections are, it
seems to US. insuperabIe. Nor are we at all
persuaded that II would be as beneficent to
car traffic as its advocates seem 10 think There
Is now very little interference with cars by
wagons. Drivers invariably keep off the car
tracks except when passing other vehicles and
when the cars are run at the legally prescribed
distance apart II is not difficult TO make those
brief incursions upon the tracks without OBJ
structing traffic TO any material degree. For
eighteen cut OF the tBe1ty-four hours there is
practically no obstruction at ali by wagons. and
it would certainly seem unjust to penalize all

Much fun has been poked at the military
schools which have been established recently
for the benefit Of the officers of the army The
criticism has always come from the people who
frown upon all army reforms and innovations
because they have tendency to destroy anti
quated methods which, despite their useIessness
are looked upon as sacred by the critics because
OF their antiquity Among the thrgs said of the
schools that they would be schools in name
only and that no real work would be required
of the men who attended them. The contrary
was demonstrated recently when six army
officers We're ordered before q court mar
tial at the Fort Leavenworth school because
they had neglected their studies and had in
consequence been found deficient on examina-
tion. This action. wnlcn approved by the
War Department, shows that the schools are not
play places. and HAT officers who look upon
them such are liable 10 be brought up on the
charge of conduct prejudiciaI TO military disci-

Replying to Justice Blanchards emphatic re-
the attempt TO make the Knickerbocker Trust
Company remove the portco, steps and pillars
Of its new building al Fifth-ave and Thirty
fourth-st, the Counsel TO the Corporation said
yesterday that there had been no delay IN his
office. but that, on the contrary within nine
days from the time when the matter was first
called to his attention he had prepared his case
and served the proper legal papers Oh the
company. That was quick enough work, IN
doubtedly. but Mr.. Rives's personal defence is
no response TO the complaint that the COM
pany has been strangely and unjustly treated.
The facts remain that the company procured
from the Buildings Department and the Munic-
ipal Assembly authority TO build in conform
ity with the plans on file; that while the build
ing was going up the city constantly rep
resented on the spot by an inspector Of the
Buildings Department; that for two years and
until The work complained of had been finished
no objection whatsoever was made or sug-
gested and that then the company was sud
denly confronted with Judicial proceedings TO
compel il to undo what It had done by official
permission. We do not pretend to say what
the law at this late day may require. but, III
less it can be shown that the statement OF
the case made by the companys counsel in
court on Tuesday and left substantially IN
contradicted by the Assistant Counsel to the

particular. Judge Gray would doubtless de-
eide the question impartially Il it were referred
to him, but inasmuch as the Commission eX-
pressly provided for the settlement of just such
disputes by an umpire appointed by a circuit
Judge of the Third Judicial District we see no
reason for making different selection. TN
the contrary, the proper course is to adhere
strictly to that and every other provision OF
the award by which both sides pledged them
selves to abide. The miners are sure they are
right, and perhaps they are. But dispute has
certainly arisen. and the stipulated agency for
its adjustment is ready TO be called into ex-
istence. according to Mr. Truesdale's under
standing OF the matter If he is not mistaken,
why should the miners or anybody else be talk

loaf along and be advanced as their seniors re-
tired died or resigned have passed away with
other things tangible and otherwise. An officer
under the new regulations must keep UP his
studies if he hopes to be promoted. Unless he
does so he will soon be elbowed out of the

have or how far reaching his pull may be-
The War Department has taken pains on sew
eraI occasions to make its policy on that point
clear, but there are still some officers who are
sceptical on the subject and seem TO think that
the snow of severity is simply a show. ihev
