Load From wItte,s Shoulders.

St. Petersburg, December1.-C:2 a. m.) The official dispatches announcing the de- cisive crushing of the great mutlny at sebastopol. and the capture of all the mu- tineers, including the fanatical command CT Lieutenant Schmidt raised great load from the hearts of Count Witte and his associates in the govern4 ent.
 At a piotYacted oabilshS council yester- day long and serious consideration was given to an even grayer problem--the general strike of the telegraph and pos tai employees which has completely para lyzed the interior communication of the empire. and which is continued will mean nothing else than the economic and in dustrial death of Russia.
 Rumors were flying thick and fast late last night that Count Wtte. had decided to sacrifice M Durnovo, the acting min ister of the interior. whose action in dis charging the lead of the employees brought on the strike. It is believed, however. that M. Durnovo will be given final op- portunity to rectify his error.
 May Undoe the Mischief.
 According to telephonic information from Moscow, the telegraphers there ap- preached Baron Midem. the prefect who promised to present petition for the re- employment of those who had been dis charged if work was immediately recom- mended. The government perhaps will accept this egress from its difficulty in this regard
 The Interruption of telegraphic commu- nication with the interior Is complete and the Associated Press is able to forward foreign dispatches only by special ar rangement
 The situation at St. Petersburg was ex- tremely tense yesterday. In the absence of definite information from Sebastopol, the widest rumors were in circulation in the city. The revolutionists eagerly seized the opportunity to spread reports that the mutineers had been completely victorious.
 Panic Spread on Bourse.
 They worked especially on the troops, button-holing every sailor whom them en- countered in the streets. A panic spread on the bourse, and government bonds dropped heavily. The government finally recognized that it was a tactical mis- take to hold up the news, but the official announcement of its victory at Sebastopol came too late to undo a great deal of harm. The dispatches show that the re- sistance of the mutineers when they were convinced that the government meant business and could count on the active support of the troops in the forts was faint hearted. As the Otchakoff fired only half a dozen shots before hauling down it's flag the damage to the city of Sebastopol may be far less than had been expected.
 Lieutenant Schmidt and other leaders of the mutineers probably expect short shrift and it is certain that the govern ment will show them no leniency.
 Lieutenant Schmidt for a short time commanded one of the torpedo boats built for Russia by Lewis Nixon. He is we'll known to MT. Nixon. who says he is rattle-brained and incompetent The lieu tenant was retired few weeks ago on ac- count of his participation in the revolu- tionary propaganda.

THE statement that the former
President of the Equitable Life In
surance Company made restitution OF
over 1926, 900 for money Illegally derived
from syndicate operations gives reason
to hope that there will be a general
awakening of consciences along this
line, and the policy holders of the
company may receive their fair share
of the earnings. There is also reason
to believe that the revelation in re.
gard to methods Of business by this
and other great financial institutions
will be themeans of bringing about a
new standard Of morals regarding tht
trusteeship of other peoples affairs
A good and great man has said that
he believed as be prayed-that the
developments of this. twentieth cen
fury would be for spirituality and fol
truth, rather than for material pro
erosion that men would learn to bt
honest, true and kind, instead of seek
ing wealth and power. The lesson o.
the Equitable controversy is that
there is a trusteeship In all that one
does and says. and if this be taught bl
the great exposure, let all Of us b
grateful.

THE GOVERNOR APPROVES MORE
BILLS.

Governor Stokes is slowly but surely
disposing of the bills left in his hands
by the last Legislature, on Tuesday
he approved of the appropriations bill.
The appropriations aggregate "a ,oOO,-
900. He approved Of the bill in its
entirety with the exception of two
items He disapproved of the item
which appropriated $4,000 for salary
for Deputy Comptroller Isaac N.
Doughten. This was an increase in
the salary of Mr.. Doughten, who is
now receiving $500. The governor
struck out the item as it was not ac-
complished by statue raising the
salary. He does not approve of in
creasing salaries in the appropriation
bills, preferring that the increase be
made by statute and then the item be
placed in the appropriation bill. He
had not the power to decrease the APP
preparation and could only strike it
out entirely or leave it. By the elm
nation of this item from the bill there
will be no salary available for the
deputy comptroller from November
next until the legislature conyenes in
January next. Item 4, in section Il,
appropriating $1,000 for the super
vision of plans of new school houses,
was not sanctioned. The governor
said this item was not necessary, as
the work of supervision would now go
to the assistant commissioner of char
tiles and corrections, George e. Poole,
who is an architect Hermen Kriet-
Ter, of Newark, did the supervising
work. He is leader among those
architects who are fighting against
the. administration for creating the
bureau of charities and corrections, as
the assistant commissioner of charities
is an architect and does all the states
work in that direction. This Office
has during its months of existence
saved the state $780, 900. Mr.. Poole has
made special study of school house
architecture, and the school house at
Hillside is an evidence Of his skill in
this respect.
Governor Stokes has vetoed what is
known as the "control BILL" which
provided that all money received to
the use Of the State by any board OF
managers Of any State institution or
by any State officer or department for
any purpose whatever should be paid
to the State treasurer. The bill was
vetoed because it defeated its own
purpose. The money being paid over
to the institutions in advance and
bills audited afterward.

THIS country has the sympathy of
the civilized world In the loss of its
foremost citizen, for the death of John
Hay last Saturday is not only a per-
sonal loss to every American but a dis
tinct loss to civilization. Americans
have come to look upon him as our
John Hay, but his good sense and good
Judgment have won respect from the
world and all men will mourn the
death of the foremost statesman Of
his age. John Hay was known all ov-
er this country as a clever newspaper
writer before he became Secretary to
President Lincoln and he has lived his
life on a level with the public gaze ey-
er since, filling one important place af-
ter another until he became the one
man in internal affairs, the represent
alive American, the synonym for hon
est and plain speech in diplomacy.
Many men have filled the position of
Secretary Of State, but scarcely any
one can recall the names of any OF
them before John Hay, except, per-
hapS, Seward, and John Hays name
will occupy larger place in history
than Stewards. John Hay needs no
eulogy. His work is so interviewer in
the fabric Of this country's recent, his.
tary that his memory is assured for all
time

PRESIDENT RoosEvELT's efforts to
stem the tide of ill-feeling against
Americans and American products
that is sweeping over China on account
of the exclusion laws have met with a
considerable degree Of success, the Chi
nese Government having issued an or
der to all of the Viceroys and Govern
ors of the various provinces of the
country, telling them to put an end to
the anti-American agitation and the
attempts to boycott American pro
ducts. A dispatch to this effect has
been received at the State Depart
ment from w. w. Rockhill, the Amer
lean Minister at Pekin. Government
officials hope that the order will tend
to break up the movement of the boy
colt OF American products, which has
rapidly spread since its inception at
Shanghai about two months ago. The
situation grew 50 serious that manu-
facturers in this country became much
alarmed and appealed to President
Roosevelt for assistance. Through
Mr.. Rockhill the President sent assur-
ances to the Chinese Government that
he would do all in his power to pro-
cure a modification OF the exclusion
laws, through which the Boycott was
instituted. He asked China to stop
the movement.

In considering the reasons for re-
joicing on the 10th anniversary of our
national independence the most pesSi-
mistic citizen must feel that there are
special reasons for gratitude. In adj
dition to the wonderful growth and
prosperity of the nation and the adj
vancement the country has made in
recent years as a world S power, there
is a special reason in the fact that eco
nomic questions that have been the
cause of great solicitude to thinking
men in recent years are in process of
settlement. 1t has been a question
whether the public conscience would
ever be aroused sufficiently to over
come political corruption, but the re-
cent developments along that line in
several States demonstrate that when
the people once understand the situa-
tion they will apply the remedy The
actions against the great corporations
or trusts in which they are being
brought to account and their officials
indicted give promise Of better things
in this respect, while the general ex-
preston of contempt for and demand
for the punishment of men who have
been recreant to their trusts in the
management Of the great insurance
companies is bringing those robbers of
widows and orphans to terms. The
workingman is coming into his own as
the recent decisions of the courts that
combinations to prevent men from
earning living are Illegal and can be
prevented, and the recent exposure of
graft on the part of labor leaders tend
the bringing about of more perfect
freedom to all. Let everybody get en-
thusiastic over our heritage from the
past and rejoice over our prospects for
the future.

WHILE the question of selecting a
successor for Mr.. Hay as Secretary of
State was never seriously considered
by President Roosevelt. even during
the recent period when it was believed
by many that Mr.. Hay would not be
able to return to his Official duties, it
is well understood in the Cabinet cir
Gle that Mr.. Roosevelt would rather
have Elihu Root, OF New York, his
former secretary Of War, at the head
of his Metal family than any other

SECRETARY TAFT is doing the coun-
try great service in addresses he is
making before schools and colleges on
the subject of the lax enforcement Of
the law being an incentive to lynch
ings. He said g the rule which OBJ
tains throughout this country is that
any error, however small, which it is
impossible to show afflrmatively did
not prejudice the defendent must lead
to reversal Of the Judgment. The
same disposition on the part Of the
courts to think that every provision
of every rule of law in favor of the
defendant is one to be strictly en-
forced, and even widened in effect, in
the interest of the liberty of the citi-
zen, has led courts Of appeal to a de-
gree of refinement in unfolding tech
nicalities in favor of defendants and
in reversing convictions that renders
one who has had practical knowledge
of the trial of criminal cases most inn
patient" just here is the cause OF
the general distrnst of law on the part
of peaceable citizens and the incentive
to crime on the part of evil doors.
There Is an apparent impression, es-
pecially among the ignorant classes,
that person charged with crime will
be sympathized with and defended by
persons who otherwise would take nc
interest in them. This belief leads to
