Public Confidence in Baltimore Mater
tally Restored by Chain of Incidents
Indicating an Early Resumption of
Trade and Business Conditions
Emperor William Sends Message.

Baltimore, Md, FEB. 11.-AbOut the
most important action taken yesterday
was the decision to ask the federal
government fer troops to take the
lplace of the two state militia regi-
ments now doing police duty in the
burned district, and TO efficiently
guard the millions of treasure still
buried beneath the ruins.
The constitution of Maryland re-
quires that no such request can be
made OF the president except by the
authority of the state legislature. The
legislative committee was present to
hear the views Of the mayor and Of
ficers of the city on that point. This
was shown to be Enthusiastically in IA
vor of the request being made, and
the committee announced it would rec
ommend the immediate passage of the
necessary. resolution. The release of
the militiamen from sentry duty viii
permit them to resume their vacations,
and relieve the state of an expense of
$4,000 day.
A chain of incidents which contrib
.uted materially to the restoration of
public confidence may be summarized
as follows.
The opening today of a board of
trade room by the chamber of COM
merce and the receipt of quotations;
uninterrupted shipments of grain car
goes; the certainty of state aid and
notification by some of the large insur-
ance companies of their readiness to
at once pay fifty per cent on the loss
es; the action Of the legislature in
asking for federal troops.
number of large vaults and safes
we're opened yesterday and in each of
them the contents were found to be in
good condition. Four hundred thou
sand dollars was taken from the vaults
of the Third National bank and sent
to vaults of a bank outside of the fire
district A heavy guard of soldiers &C
companied the money.
Among the kilograms of sympathy
received yesterday was one from En-
peror William and another from the
tradesmen of Liverpool.

Washington, Feb. 9.-The senate
passed the diplomatic and consular
appropriation bill and then renewed
consideration of the isthmian question.
Senator Fulton spoke in support of the
administrations course in connection
with the Panama revolt and Senators
Carmack and Overman in opposition.
The latter had not hitherto made his
position on the treaty known and his
speech revealed the attitude of probably
the last doubtful member of the sen

Washington, Feb. 5.-The political
debate in the senate on the proposed
loan of S46OO,O0O To the St Louis ex-
position. which has been in progress
On q point Of order for three days,
was closed through a vote which left
the provision in the urgent deficiency
appropriation bill. which was passed.
Senator Peterson of Colorado made
speech in which, while he charged the
panic of 1898 to the anti-silver agita-
ton in this and other countries, an
nounced that he was not in favor of
another democratic pronOuncement for
silver. After the vote on the deficieny
bill speeches in support of the Pan
anna canal treaty were made by Sen
atOrs Mallory of Florida and Hyburn of
Idaho. Senator Proctor introduced a
bin authorizing marriages in the Dis
trict OF Columbia according to the
custom of the Quakers. Mr.. Sheppard.
democrat OF Texas. one of the strong
est members of the house, made a
determined effort to bring about re.
form in the matter of the distribution
of seeds by the government. He con.
tended that the system is bad. Mr.
Sheppsrd's first move was TO have
stricken from the agricultural appro-
priatiOn bill certain sections providing
the machinery fer the distribution of
the seeds authorized to be purchased
under the bill. In this he was success
ful but by an overwhelming vote the
house promptly ADDED the sections TO
the bin by way of amendment. Only
three members voted in opposition TO
the restoration. Mr.. Sheppard'S
further effort was to secure an amend
ment 10 the restored sections, which
would provide fer the purchase of rare
and untried seeds, but despite his
earnest appeal for this amendment it
failed and the bill was left just as the
committee brought it into the house,
so far as seeds for free distribution
were concerned. This was the only
item in the bill that aroused serious
discussion and the bill with a few
minor amendments was passed.

IT WAS THEIR RIGHT.

The forty-fve members of the
Silver party of Nevada, two OF
whom are hold-over State Sena-
5ors, who walked out of the con-
vention when it decided to fuse
with the Democratic party, pre-
sent an i'll omen to those who
think that a great political party
IN this State can be forced by d
boss to stulify itself. They stood
oy their colors and have earned
the respect of their opponents
even though they realized that
20 put up Watson electors only
served to retain their political
honor and to prove their sin
certify. The contrast between
the two conventions can only re-
dound in the public mind to the
dignity of the one and to the dis
trust of the other.

OLD THEORY KNOCKED OUT.

In a decision just handed down
by Judge Pritchard of the
United States Circuit Court, in
volving the right of newspaper
to criticise judicial proceedings,
the old theory that Courts can
not be criticised by the press, is
given a black eye.
The case in question arose over
an application for a writ of
habeas corpus made in behalf of
the editor of the Raleigh News
and Observer, who had refused
to pay a fine of $1,000 imposed
for contempt of Court, and had
been sent to Jail. In granting
the application Judge Pritchard
said alphabetically that words
written or spoken at a place
other than where the Court is
held, and not so near thereto as
to interfere with the proceed
ings of the Court, do not render
the author liable.
"That newspapers sometimes
engage in unwarranted criticism
Of the Courts cannot be denied.
In some instances they construe
the liberty of the press in whole
sale abuse of the Court, but
these instances are rare and do
not warrant a departure from
the we'll settled principles of the
law as declared by Congress and
construed by the Courts. II
Judges charged with the admin
istration of the law are not to be
criticised on account of their
official conduct, the liberty of
the press is abridged, and the
rights of individuals are i'm
periled."

FOR II WEST,

The only President we ever
had who has really known the
West is Roosevelt. During bis
administration we have received
more Legislative and administra.
tive attention than ever before.
Aud this has been due mostly to
his personal influence. So long
as he is President the interests
of the West will have in Wash
ington their strongest advocate.
There is not another man in
America, in either party, of
Presidential rank, who combines
intelligent appreciation and ac-
tive interest in Western affairs,
to the extent that President
does.
