THE JEROME AVENUE ACCIDENT.

Two excuses are likely 10 be offered for the
chauffeur who drove an automobile containing
nine persons over a preclpice at the southern
end OF Jeromeave on Thursday night. One IS
that the depression guarded only by a
iimsy fence. The other IS that in order to
reach Central Bridge in n southbound vehicle
one must make a turn To the eastward n few
rods above II and that this necessity would not
be obvious to a person unfamiliar with the road.
Regarding the first Of these facts it may be
said that it counts for little. II is doubtful il
anything less substantial than the Washington
Monument would have stopped a heavy auto
mobile running at high speed, and such col
lisiOn might have been attended with effects
fully as serious as followed fall 10 the railway
tracks. AS for the failure to turn off from
JerOme-ave. at the right place. the public will
naturally inquire whether ordinary vigilance
and sobriety would not have averted the mis-
take.
What looks like the true explanation of the
whole unfortunate affair is found in the state
ment Of one of the survivors. He declares
that most of the party-especialy the men-had
been drinking, and that NOyes, who was in
charge of the machine, showed the effects of
his indulgence before the accident occurred.

FREE Trade EXPORT PRICES.

The consular reports of the United States
government are often unwelcome reading to
our Cobdenite friends, but seldom more so, we
fancy, than just at present Recent reports, of
which we have already reproduced large part
in our columns. related to the prices of British
manufactured goods in the home market and
In the foreign market. It has long been a stock
complaint Of the CObdenites that under our
American system of protection manufacturers
sell certain wares for export at lower prices than
they sell them for In the domestic market, so
that American made goods can be bought in Eu-
rope more cheaply than in America; and they
have, with iterated and fearful shrillness given
us TO understand that that dreadful state of af-
fairs was all owing to our iniquitous protective
tariff. and would be absolutely impossible under
the blessed free trade system, for which they
increasingly are praying.
Now, here come some United States eonsuls
with quite different stories He at Glasgow,
for example. reports that iron and steel manu-
facturers right there in the land of Adam
Smith-and. he is assured, throughout the United

questions that never will be raised. 1t would
speak poorly for international law and justice
IL It were not making directly toward that end.
There, indeed, is one great point Of superior
value Of arbitration over war It settles things.
A war within a nation may settle something.
One between two sovereign powers does not.
The very next year another war may be started
over the very same issue to undo the eHects OF
the former one. Just as France began planning
Immediately after 1871 for her 'revanche" and
for the reversal Of the verdict of the Terrible
Year" But there is no such planning TO undo
the work Of arbitration. The verdict OF an
arbitral tribunal stands. It sets a precedent
by which not only the nations concerned but
others are thereafter guided, and which serves
to determine the settlement Of subsequent dis
putes. It is In that sense that the progress or
arbitration is most real and most substantial
and is most fraught with the promise of peace
and justice for the world.

The Prince and Princess Of Wales have just

grown into a great suite of buildings in the

which thus gives token Of it's continued vital
ity and working power. never greater than at
the present time. After two centuries Wesley's
religious and spiritual influence in every cOun-
try is one Of the most potent in Professionalism.
and this is particularly the case in Great Brit
ain, where 1t took its origin. Signs OF royal toll

Of on that score now. when the Wesleyan system
