Another American Cardinala

The suggestion by Cardinal Gibbons upon
his return that the United States at no dis
tant day may be accorded another member
of the sacred college of the Roman Catholic
Church is certain to renew discussion of
that subject. For at least twenty years
speculation has been busy picking out a
colleague for the distinguished prelate Of
Baltimore While he lived Archbishop Cor
rigan seemed the choice of the east. as
Archbishop Ireland was. and still remains,
the choice of the west. VIII the east pre-
sent a candidate in Archbishop Corrigans
place? Archbishop Ireland Is the most elo-
quent man in the American church. and has
proved himself at the same time a very
successful administrator Cardinal Gibbons
is reckoned an eastern man. and maybe the
west on that account will make the more
vigorous campaign tor recognition.

Wireless Telegraphy and Turbines.

So frequently have the methods of rail-
way and steamship travel been 'revolu-
ronized' during the past few decades that
II Is dlfhcult to appreciate now the exact
proportions of each advance toward the
theoretical goal of what may be termed
timeless transportation Just now there
opens the possibility of another big change
which will make trans-oceanc travel far
different from what IL was even a year ago.
Already steamers may keep in virtually
continuous communication with the shore
by means of wireless telegraphy. Thus far
no vessel has steamed across and kept in
line with the coast throughout her voyage,
but by holding to the shore of departure
for two days and to passing vessels the next
Two days and to the shore of approach for
the last two days of the trip. 1t is possible
for her to be within touch of land almost
all the time Now attempt Is being
made TO hold a steamer in direct communi-
cation with one point on shore all the way
across. The Lucania is to be fitted with
extra powerful instruments and the expert
ment Will consist In sending frequent mes
sages to and from her until she lands on
the other side.
But still another change Is impending al
ready foreshadowed by the announcement
that the turbine engine may be used in the
construction of the next Cunarders. The
reports to this effect are persistent and are
not denied. and there is ground for beliey-
ing that the decision to construct such yes-
sells Is about to be reached The confident
expectation Is that this device will at once
lead to the four-and- a half day boat The
Cunard experiment Is inspired. II is under

A. Tammany Adviser.

In a New York special to the Baltimore
Herald John C. Sheehan is quoted as fol-
lows:
Senator Arthur Pue German of Mary
land at this time Is one of the chief adv1s-
of Charles F. Murphy, the leader under
Croker of Tammany Hall. in the matter of
the present democratic situation In the city
of New York"
There is an impression that Mr.. German
has his hands pretty full at home. The
Maryland republicans have nominated an
exceptionally strong ticket. and have an ex-
cellent organization No alarming echoes
are heard from their ante primary scraps,
and they are expected to present a solid
front in November. Mr.. German has good
deal at stake. He will suffer considerably
In prestige as local as well as would-be
national leader If he loses the battle. For
these reasons 1t is a little surprising to hear
that difficult situation elsewhere is also
engaging his attention.
If this story is true 1t adds to the national
interest In the New York campaign. Tam
many seeks to play national politics. and
needs advisers Of national caliber. Leader
Murphy must have a mentor in that field.
Mr.. Hill. 1t is true. Is interested in the
game. but labors under the disadvantage of
Mr.. Croker's disfavor. Tammany listens
but Sullenly to him. But Mr.. German en-
joys in high degree Mr.. Cookers admira-
ton and good will. He is the very man
whom Leader Murphy can consult with
greatest certainty of having Mr.. Croker ap-
prove of the step.
But even in its purely local aspect and
bearing the New York campaign is one Ia
which Mr.. German might we'll be consulted
by Tammany. He was for many years in
timately associated with Mr.. Rasin, whose
Baltimore machine. in it's construction and
operation. strikingly resembled the Tam
many machine. Mr.. German. as adviser to
Mr.. Rasin and as the chief beneficiary of
Mr.. Rasin's activity, in this way acquired
knowledge of municipal campaigning
which has probably made him an authority
on the subject. If therefore Leader Murphy
is in touch with the Maryland senator he
is fortunate in two particulars. He will get
pointers of both national and municipal
value.
AS The Star mentioned the other day, Mr..
Cleveland may at later day be asked for
an Endorsement of the Tammany candidate
Mr.. Hill has been busy for some months.
And now Mr.. German? Too many cooks
or shall we in this matter say famous
chefs?-may spoil the broth.

vention. And Leader Murphy. on his part
was willing enough to trade. Tammany'a
strong suit is trading. Control of New
York city is always its first consideration,
and to secure or perpetuate that 1t is open
at any time to proposals from anybody.
Were these two extremely practical poll
ticians wrong in their appraisement OF Mr..
Cleveland? There was the record for their
guidance. Mr. Cleveland has several times
co-operated with Tammany. and pr0fited
by the coalition. It has been for some
years the popular explanation in New York
of the anti-Cleveland demonstration by
Tammany in 1892 that Mr.. Croker was
simply playing for terms. II that was his
object he attained 1t. After Mr.. Cleveland s
nomination at Chicago the nominee and his
friends fell in with Tammany's plans for
local control; and Tammany was never
more corrupt than between the years 1892
and 1894. as was developed by the Lexow
committee of inquiry. Graft, in great wads.
marked the tigers path wherever 1t led.
Every form Of vice thrived. and paid liber-
ally for protection.
Here Is the old temptation about to be re-
newed. Mr.. Croker is abroad. but Mr..
Murphy represents him. Will Mr.. Cleve-
land trade againf Tammany is pretty foul,
but not more so than it has been these
thirty years past

Mr.. Mcclellan at Princeton.

OF course Mr.. Mcclellan Is not going to
Princeton to see Mr.. Cleveland about The
New York mayoralty race. That would be
unconventional Business of that character
and moment is not transacted in any such
manner. Diplomacy Is the thing. If Mr..
Mcclellan Is nominated Mr.. Cleveland will
be approached In a guarded way. In no
circumstances could Mr.. Mcclellan be his
own envoy. The negotiations must be con-
Quoted by others. They may not be opened
at all. 1t all depends. Mr.. Cleveland. when
his own interests are at stake, is a close
calculator. and he will hardly be persuaded
to lend himself to Tauamany's purposes I'M
less assured of personal returns.
But we get line on the Cleveland presi-

Smith of New Jersey and Leader Murphy

Some More Suggestions.

Suppose Tammany carries New York city
in November. Leader Murphy's plan is
plain enough. He promises for votes FOR
mayor this year votes for the democratic
candidate for President next year. Give
him possession of the town. and he VIII pay
a rich reward in the shape of patronage
and money contributions in aid of demo-
cratic national success. He is playing for
big stakes, and his promises are in proper
tion.
Suppose Mr.. German carries Maryland.
His presidential boom is In fair shape. ana
a victory at home over the republicans as
well led as they now are would be heraided
far and near by his friends. Every German
man elsewhere would be assured that the
Maryland senator was again invincfble In
his own bailiwick and would be certain TO
carry 1t next year.
Suppose the republican vote in Massachu-
sets falls off, and the republican candidate
for governor wins by a narrow margin. He
has given the state a good administration.
and his friends are hoping for a fiattering
Endorsement of him at the polls They will
be greatly surprised if he fails to receive 1t.
Suppose Tom Johnson. with all of his
oddities and isms and his warning on the
Mclean wing of the party. Is not as disas-
trously defeated In Ohio as is now expected.
Suppose he keeps up humming pace. stirs
up the farmers, corrals the Sucker Rod
Jones people in the cities, and altogether
makes creditable showing In the circum-
stances.
Suppose Mr.. Bryan. now that he has
abandoned his European trip. gives close
attention to Nebraska and defeats the re-
pubncans. The state has always been
close. and there are reasons why he should
do his best this year. victory for him
there would undoubtedly send his stock up
a few points
The outlook for the republicans in the ma
tionai field for next year is al present bright.
But this years local contests are of i'm
portance to them If they should lose in
these state races in November there would
follow tremendous revival of democratic
confidence and energy and efforts for
democratic harmony would be redoubled in
direction.

If the Cunard turbine boats score big gain
in time the German corporations will make
haste to adopt the same system in cor
responding attempt to regain the command
of the records. A gain snch as Is claimed
for the turbine would leave the old-style
vessel hopelessly distanced. Not the
shrewdest work by the engine and hull
builders could possibly cover the difference
between the old and new types. Therefore
a race between the English and German
lines with turbines Is within the possibilities,
and If that style of engine is developed as
rapidly as the other during the past ten or
fifteen years 1t Is reasonable to anticipate
close approach to the trans-oceanfc
