BASEBALL AND BICYCLES.

Wild enthusiasm for the achievements of the
two representative baseball mines of Nanhat
tan which have been doing SO well recently is
permissible and appropriate. But when demon
stratiops in honor Of the manager OF the chief
organization of the pair go so far as to jump
all over him, TO trample him in the dust and
to injure him gravely that it is necessary
to send for surgeons, then certainly it is time
TO call a halt.
Many popular fad IN sports has had its day
in America and has lost its hold upon the
masses after a few years. There is amateur
bicycling, for instance. In the COS OF the last
century how many hupdreds OF thousands OF
wheels were sold to buyers who purchased
them merely for recreation! Now bicycles are
used chiefly for business purposes. 1t was
puzzling abandonment of a remarkably absorb
ing passion which extended among millions of
people in many countries.

BTILDING Plans

Had it not been for the labor troubles this
would undoubtedly have been one OF the busiest
years in the construction of new buildings
which Manhattan has ever known. Not only
have plans been filed for the spending of many
millions OF dollars upon now scboolhouses and
other structures which must be paid for out of
municipal funds but private enterprises in the
raising OF numerous buildings of largo dmen-
sions have been mapped out.
The prevailing schedules OF hours of work
and rates of compensation have been exceed
ingly generous TO the wage earners. The longer
they hold out, therefore. the palmer 1t becomes
that they are turning their backs upon golden
opportunities.
New-York tribune., 1904-09-15
AvERICAy JEWS IN RUSSIA.

The somewhat excited remarks or some OF
the Russian press upon the subject OF the Status
of American Jews in Russia are not 10 De
taken as conclusive. The premise OF their argu-
ment based upon the supposed analogy between
American Jews in Russia and Chinese immi-
grants in America, is hopelessly faulty and In
correct The supposed analogy does not exist.
In the one case, there are restrictive laws IN
direct violation of an international treaty. In
the other case, there are restrictive laws in ao-
cordance with and in fulflment of an interna-
tonal treaty.
The Russo American treaty of 1928, Art-
Gle l. declares that ''the Inhabitants OF their re-
'spective States shall, mutually, have liberty
ito enter the ports, places and rivers of the
TERRITORY of each party. They shall be
"at liberty TO sojourn and reside III all parts
"wha tsoever of said territories, and they shall
''entoy to that effect the same security and
protection as natives of the country wherein
they reside. oil condition of their submitting
Ito the laws and ordinances there prevailing"
It is held by this country that those stipula-
tons should apply TO all American citizens with
out discrimination. Ii is held, however, by the
Russian government that discrimination may
be made between Americans Of various re-
ligious faiths That Is the issue upon which
the controversy hinges.
In the case of our exclusion of Chinese, It is
quite true that under the treaty OF 1853. which
these Russian journalists seem to have in mind,
conditions were much the same as in this Rus
sian case But under that treaty We did not
exclude the Chinese. There have been made
subsequent treaties. in 1880 and in 1894, ex-
pressy regulating Chinese immigration and au-
thorizng the United States to enact and enforce
restrictive laws. If Russia should secure a re-
vision Of the treaty of 32-33, and should get
America to agree to the exclusion of certain
classes of American citizens from Russia then
the cases would tie similar, and Russian exclu-
sion of American Jews would be as lawful as
American exclusion Of Chinese coolies. Until
Russia does that the two cases are radically
different

A USEFUL HOLE.

The interesting announcement was made at
the congress of geographers in this city on
Tuesday that there are depressions in the floor
Of the Pacific Ocean more than $4,000 feet deep.
Into one of them. then, the tallest mountain in
the world could be plunged and be entirely sub
merged-with room for deep-draught vessel
TO sail overhead without danger of grounding.
It is sincerely TO he hoped that those who
found those deep holes took note of the pre-
else location of them, so that they can find
them again. At least OF them may come
in handy" some time this fall. say, just after
the Tuesday after the first Monday in Novem-
Der. The Hill of Wolfert's Roost isn't the tall
est hill in the world, by good deal. and might
easily be put out OF sight In much shallOwer
hole than one of these Pacific 'deeps.' Never
theless, it is sometimes we'll TO do a good job
thoroughly, with an ample margin 10 spare.
Let us have the longitude and latitude OF one
of the very deepest of those holes. No matter
if the interior of it is lined with the slime which
covers so much of the ocean floor. That will
only make the place more homelike to Its pros
pective tenant.
