THURSDAY EVENING, AUG. 10, 1905.

THE SCENES in connection with the
prevailing strike among bakers on the
east side in New York are among the
most disgraceful that have occurred in
recent years. Men have been assaulted,
wagons overturned and their contents
thrown into the streets, while shops have
been wrecked and their Stocks destroyed.
Women, too, are participating III the
turmoils. The lot of the American peo-
ple has been cast in country that has
ever been blessed by full and plenty.
There is generally enough and to spare,
and but few cases of death from starva.
ton are reported, and these would not
have occurred had the victims made
their condition known. In the face of
such signal blessings men are now en-
gagged in trampling under foot the stall
of life in the chief city of the western
hemisphere. Such deeds may call for
vengeance from the Giver OF all whose
munifcence is 50 little appreciated. The
sable steed with his rider and balances
will some time be manifested, and posi-
bly, some Of those who are now engaged
in tramplng upon bread in the streets of
New York may see the day when they
will want what they now use so con-
temptuOusly.

tenptuOusly

THE HEAVY rains of the last twenty
four hours. have caused some little dam
age to sewers now in course of cOnstruc-
ton. However, "it is an i'll wind that
blows nobody good" and the rains have
flushed the sewers, cleaned foul bitches
and given the paved streets thorough
washing and cleaning. There is law,
passed more than three years ago, i'm
posing fines on persons who throw or
scatter vegetable matter, old paperj
boxes, or refuse of any kind on any
street, sidewalk, or alley in the city.
ii there has been any effort or desire
upon the part of the authorities to en-
force this law since its passage, or even
to partly enforce it, it has escaped the
observation Of every one. King street,
from the river to Peyton street, is almost
daily strewn with old boxes, waste paper
and banana skins. A former Mayor
said some years ago something about the
superior claims that necessary tidness
aud necessary cleanliness should have
over some other things A partial
enforcement of this law would save
the expense Of hauling waste paper
and other refuse to the dump pile, to
again find its way to the streets. Many
of the streets are now clean and should be
kept so.

Mutiny of Russian SOLDIERS.

Berlin, Aug. 1O.-The schlessische
Zeitung says that $50 men of the Vol
hyni regiment at Warsaw, Poland, re-
fused to obey orders to entrain prepare
tory to starting to the far east. All of
the mutineers were sentenced to death for
their refusal. Later this sentence was
committed, and every tenth man was or
dered shot. A company of Lithuanians
was ordered to execute the men, but the
company refused to fire on the condemn
ed soldiers. A regiment of Cossacks was
summoned Immediately by telephone
and a fight ensued in which both sides
suffered severe losses. Another regiment
was then summoned and the Lithuanians
were compelled to surrender. The fur
ther proceedings were conducted behind
the walls of the citadel. Secrecy is OBJ
served as to what occurred.

Sensation in Military Camp.

Newport News, Va, Aug. l0-It was
learned here last night that a rather
sensational scene occurred Tuesday
afternoon at Ocean View, where the
Seventy-frst Virginia Regiment is in
camp. Major John II. GiIkerson, of
this city, commanding the Third Bat
talon, was ordered to his tent under ar
rest, and it is said was reprimanded
before the regiment by Colonel A. NJ.
Higgins. No one seems to know just
what caused the trouble. 1t is said that
Major Gilkerson was slow in responding
when the regiment was ordered out for
dress parade in a rainstOrm yesterday
afternoon. High words passed between
the colonel and major, it is said, and the
latter was ordered to his tent under ar
rest. Yesterday morning the major was
released, but it is supposed that the
trouble is not ended. The affair is said
to have created great excitement among
the men, and many of them declare
that Major Gilkerson will demand an
apology from the colonel.

WHILE ATTENDING the Culpeper
horse show July 4 the statement was
made by Mr.. Crandal Mackey, Common
wealth's Attorney for Alexandria coun-
ty, that Judge G. f. Nicol had said of
Hon. Claude A. Swanson "Ifthe peo-
pie of Virginia knew Swanson's moral
character they would not touch him. !"
Judge Nicol was then Europe, but upon
his return he promptly denied having
made any such statement Mr.. Mackey,
who seems to be particularly hostile to
Mr.. Swanson, should confine himself to
statements he can prove. His "mud
singing" however, will but rebound to
Mr. Swanson's benefit.

service to the government as well as to
his church in the relations of the United

with many of the public men, by all Of

respect. The archbishop was exposed
TO the yellow fever in the performance Of
his episcopal duties, and died not only
in service, but on account of his service.

scholarship and broad and vigorous
mind. In New Orleans and in Wash
ington his death will be deplored by
Protestants and Catholics alike.

THE $2S, 900, coo oil deal, whereby the
Mellon syndicate, OF Pittsburg, was to
take over Kansas aud Texas oil proper
ties to wage war against the Standard
Oil Company, is practically Oft The
Kansas delegation, which has been in
Pittsburg trying to put the deal through
for the past fortnight, left for home yes
terday, satisfied that it was useless to re-
main longer. The hitch, though prob
ably susceptible of a more interesting
explanation, is alleged to have occurred
through the inability of the Kansas peo-
pie to demonstrate to the satisfaction of
the local men that the territory optioned
would produce enough oil to justify the
construction Of pipe line to the gulf
and start the crusade. incidentally it
might be stated that but few moneyed
men care about opposing the Standard
Oil Company.

A decision OF interest to colored peo-

been made by Judge Scott, in Richmond,
in the suit of certain stockholders against
the True Reformers. The decision was
for the defendant, but in delivering his
opinion the judge said "The consti-
tuition and bylaws Of this order are GER
tainly at fault, but in my judgment do
not consider it real bank. 1t is an or
ganization with peculiar laws and those
of you who have allowed yourself to join

as an order, to arrange laws to keep stock

consistent they are, as long As it remains
an organization as il is now. The law
regarding their stockholders is certainly
a silly one, but it is left 10 you whether

Butler on Publicity.
The attention of the public has been
caught by one passage in the opening
address of President Butler of Column

ciers. He said we have been watching
regulations melt away like snow before
the sun of publicity, and men who forl
years have been trusted are seen to bel
mere spectators with the money of
others and pilferers of the savings OF
the poor. "Put bluntly," lie added, "the-I
situation which confronts Americansl
today is due to lack Of moral princi-l
ple.'
He declared there were many bust
ness men and lawyers counted shrewd
and successful who have substituted
the penal code for the moral law. Right
and wrong had given way to the subtle
distinction "between honest, law-hon-
est and dishonest"

He hopes that the many decent and
honorable citizens who are bewildered
and scandalized by his utterances will
allow him to choose his own methods
'of breaking through the very tough

science" Finally he does not say that
his books cannot do harm to weak or
