New York, Jan. 27.-Ten steerage
passengers died at sea on the Red

as congestion of the lungs and pneu-

gers were not permitted to land when
the steamer came up to her dock, and
by order of the health officer Of the
port the Vaderland was sent back to

-Four departments of the govern

come before the investigating hoard
are
Were the passengers on the Vader-

Of the steamship company sell the
steerage passengers food, knowing that
the passengers could not eat the steer

Are the alleged statements that the

Were the sanitary arrangements on the
Vaderland bad and dangerous 10 life?

Proteetion From MonopoIy.

From the Baltimore American.
Some of the friends OF the railroads arc
disposed 10 grow hystorcal over the pro-
posal to regulate freights. They talk Of
gross injustice, Socialism and the uncon-
stitutonality Of Il as though there had
not been for many years governmental
regulation Of railroads. It is not "a new
thing. The Interstate Commerce Com
mission has been Ia existence for nearly
a quarter Of a century. 1t is simply pro-
posed to expand regulations in order to
protect,the public. II Is claimed in some
quarters that the transportation service
is natural monopoly. II is not necessary
to discuss the question now. The rail-
roads have unquestionably made transpor-
tation a monopoly between all of the inn
portant trade centres OF the country, and
IL is a reasonable inference that II it were
worth their while they would make the
transportation service a monopoly every
where a railroad runs and that they will
do so whenever Il appears 70 be profitable
Many reasons are assigned for this. II
Is claimed that competing roads cut cacf
others throats; thar roads can be run
more economically under one direction,
that there are not passengers and freight
enough for two and the like. Every on,
knows, however, that the reason for tn,
monopoly is the good of the railroads
rhoy do Il for their own benefit. ana mo-
Tor the benefit OF the public. But if thes,
roads are either natural or artificial mo
nopoles, the public is entitled to som,
consideration. They are the only meant
az the disposal Of the people for the trans
action Of current business, and they wer

tions 70 the public In other words. the,

There is nothing improbable in the

and that a dissolution Is close at hand.
Possibly Mr. BalfOur is in no hurry to
appeal TO the constltuenciesi for IL the
Government is mot especially strong, It
appears to be fairly safe. 1t might go
on for a year or two longer, much as
Lord Melbournes ministry did after
the ''bedchar1ber quarrel" incapable OF
accomplishing much, but stih not weak
enough to be overthnown. Yet gem
eral election this year might cOnceiv-
ably leave the Conservatives ian "a bet
ter position than one postponed TO a
later date. All the indications so to
show that Mr.. Chamberlain's protec-
zionist propaganda has made little
progress among the voters; the bye
elections have resulted IN steady gains
for the Liberals. The Conservative
strength really lies not in any particu-
lar confidence which the country has
In the present leaders OF the party but
IN the divisions which exist among
their opponents. II Is not IN the least
likely that the Liberals can come I'm
with an absolute majority; they win
still have to depend upon more or less
doubtful allies; and the two wings OF
the party do not regard each other
with particularly pleasant feelings.
