A Yarn About Carnegie.

That amusing yarn representing Mr.. Car
negie as saying that if the millionaires of
Wall street continue their opposition to
the President she will chip in with mil
lion or two and determine the November
result in Mr.. RooSeveltS favor is travelling
at fair rate of speed, when the season is
considered. It is a little clumsy, but We
have to RENE mber the date, and the fact
that the falirs have not, as yet, struck
their campaign gait. When they warm up
to their work they will greatly improve
on that and may before the race is over
make it memorable for both the number
and variety of their inventions. The pic
turesqueness of the Presidents personality
not improbably will lend itself to the de-
velopment of the yarn-spinners at their
best. In fact, the chairman of the repub-
lican national committee should be chosen
somewhat with regard to capacity to
appraise and dispose of the roorbacks of
the opposition.
Is it not little early even for determining
which side Mr. Carnegie will take in the
race. much less how active he will be-?
Who shall say that he will not be found
supporting MIR. Cleveland in case the ST.
Louis convention is stampeded to the sage
of Princeton? Mr.. Carnegie is a most I'M
compromising anti-imperialist. He PROB
ably takes more interest in that issue than
in any other. His fears are quieted for the
money question. He must have observed
how little remains of the old cry against
protection. So that should Mr.. Roosevelt
a pronounced imperialist, be opposed by
Mr.. Cleveland, who from the day he struck
hands with Mrs. Dominis about Hawaii
has been a pronounced anti-imperialist, Mr..
Carnegie might decide to put his money on
the latter He and Mr.. Cleveland are very
good friends.
In other circumstances the great IRON
master might find Mr. Roosevelt more to
his fancy. As against an extremist like Mr..
Bryan or Mr. Hearst, or some colorless
man put up to catch the timid and inverte-
brate. he might support the President with
zeal forgiving him his Imperialism for the
all-round sturdinesS and aggressiveness of
his character. He and the President are
friends. and except on the issue of imperial
ism have much in common.
But at this stage of the game we may be
very sure that Mr.. Carnegie has not taken
the public into his confidence either about
candidates or the size of the contribution
he intends making to his favorite's cam
paign fund.

and then he will. from force of habit, begin
the very next day to cut the corner again
and thus to wear down the struggling
grass. Most of the time 1t is merely

distance ans time Reckoned up in terms
OF miles and days these petty savings make
a pitifully small showing In the course OF
the average lifetime, and a contemptibly
small one when the damage that has been
done is reckoned. If the habitual trespass-
ers would only stop to think of how much
better the city would look If turf edges
everywhere were kept green and fresh and
how easily this could be done If the house
helCers were not discouraged by the con-
slant encroachment of the step-savers,
they would perhaps resolve ito keep off the
grass in the future.

New York.

The President has nothing to complain
of as to yesterdays action of the New
York republicans. They Endorsed him in
hearty terms, and the delegation to Chi
cago Is composed of men able to con-
tribute to wise measures at the conven-
ton. The platform adopted might very
well be made the basis of the party's ma
tional deliverance. 1t covers all the es-
sentia' points for which the party stands
responsible and upon which it will ask a
new lease of power. After this full ex-
preston by the republicans. the purpose
of the democrats not to indulge themselves
in a platform at their convention next
Monday is brought into stronger light and
leads to sharper comment. Clearly, how
ever. the democrats of New York are not
in position to do much more at this time
than present candidate. If they do that
with sufficient emphasis they can afford
to wait on st. Louis for all the rest.

Another Russian Battle Ship Gone.

Russias rejoicing over the humiliation OF
a scouting party of fifty japanese in the
Yalu river region was short-lived. For on
tie heels of the announcement of that af
fair comes the news that the battleship
Petropavlovsk in steaming out of the Port
Arthur roadstead to join in an engagement
with the japanese fleet. struck Russian
mine and sank with Dearly all her COM
pany, entailing the complete loss of the YES

OF the officers in charge. Such disasters are
more demoralizing than losses entailed in
direct fighting. inflicted by an aggressive
enemy. The news has evidently created the
pecally in view of the fact that Grand
Duke Cyril. who is on of the very highest
members of the Russian royal family, was
an officer of the Petropavlovsk and barely
escaped with his life. The news is the more
shocking to the Russian capital because the
Inflated vessel which bore the flag of Ad-
miral Makaroff carried that gallant officer
down with her. His recent operations at
Port Arthur. while not successful in re-
lieying the station of the menace of Japa-

highest praise for him. and his loss will be

time. il seems. now. some people We're

Mr. cleveland has always been sensitive

To realize his obligations to it. He has
been repeatedly assaulted in the south for

denounced even as the betrayer of his

heed. But if some local politician, or

tavern. intimates that Mr.. Cleveland
e -er showed any particular civility to

any way before the law. there instantly

In all this business the Sage of Princeton
