THE LOvE-CRnGE
IN AMERICA.
1T IS UNFORTUNATELY SPREAD.
ING, but 1T HAS NO PLACE
IN AMERICAN CIvILI.
ZATION.


The "crime passionel" does not
belong In American civilization. The
French jurists. as well as the French
psychologists. place love-tragedies In
a category distinct from other law
breaking. But this is not one OF those
things that "they order better In
France" The so-called "unwritten
law" as 1t exists In this country, is
deplorable enough. There should be
no spread of the illogical and III
advised public sympathy that en-
cuses the offender who offers love-
madness for his defense.
Two girls have been shot by men
In New York within the past few
days-one murdered outright; the
other disflgured for life The only
provocation the victims gave was the
rejection of men as lovers. The
crimes would be less significant II
they were unusual, or II similar Of
lenses occurred only in the great
cities, where unhealthy moral condi-
tions are the inevitable accompani-
ments OF the extremes OF luxury and
poverty. But news comes constantly
OF the assassination OF women by
their suffers in farm-houses and vii
lagos and In every section OF the
country.
1t is new growth In America,
where reverence and protection OF
womanhood has existed almost to
the extent OF praiseworthty cxag-
geration. How mach OF the morbid
development is due to Latin ideas !;
how much 10 woman's deliberate
stepping from her former status:
how much to the increase I'm the
number OF individual degenerates
that Is the ugly attendant upon all
civilization are questions difficult to
determine. One thing is sure. The
love-crime is. detestable to the we'll
balanced American mind; its per-
petrator n coward OF the most con-
temptible type and each new instance
should provoke healthy public SEN
timent to rebuke any tendency to-
ward hysterical sympathy.
Whatever excuse exists is sum-
married. by the poet, I'm his lines be-
| ginning: "All men kill the thing
they love-" But America, happily,
has not been civilized to the point OF
rottenness where the laureate OF
Reading gaol will be accepted as a
mentor or convincing advocate

President Mellen of the New York.

a recent address. asked why Il "a

die their own affairs are so fire.
quently In evidence In handling those
of the public. He said that this is
one or those anomalies In human
affairs that no one is able satisfac-
torily to explain. 1t would appear
from this that Mr.. Mellen does not
think n man unable to handle sue
cessfully his own financial affairs
ought to be put in charge of the
affairs OF the public.
But III this rule had been APP
piled In this country. Il would have
prevented the magnificent career of
Daniel Webster. who was notorious
iy In a state OF financial distress
during most OF his life, being n
chronic borrower and apparently in
capable of making money and living
within his means. Nevertheless, Dan
iel Webster was not only the nations
greatest political orator. but the ma
tion's greatest constitutional ex-
FOUNDER. and moreover he delivered
In the senate several orations on
financial subjects which even today
are standard authorities on the SUBJ
ject OF money and credit. ~
The fact that some men are capa-
BILE of dealing in large way with
principles are incapable OF applying
them practically to their own af-
fairs, and on the other hand, men
capable of applying such principles
In their own affairs so as to make

WILL MARCH
THROUGH CUBA.
AMERICAN TROOPS TRIP Ex-
PECTED TO HAVE MORAL
EFFECT.

II Is the intention OF the provis-
ional government at Havana to have
the American troops there make ex-
tensive practice marches throughout
the country. This should not be in
terpreted as threatening demon
stration. The step is taken for its
moral effect on the restoration OF
confidence. In a general order Gen.
J. Franklin Bell enjoins all officers
and enlisted men Of the American
army OF occupation to manifest all
possible courtesy toward Cubans OF
all parties, and to take no active
part in the suppression of disorder,
except in extreme emergencies, rem
dering necessary interference for the
protection OF life and property. The
duties OF the American forces are,
generally speaking, limited to the
rendering OF good Offices for the
prevention OF friction between con-
ficting elements.

NO ARREST OF
JAPANESE OFFICERS
LAW DOES NOT PROHIBIT
SKETCHING IN THE PHIL
PPINES.

The story that a Japanese army
officer had been placed under arrest
at Manila for sketching certain forti-
fcations OF Manila harbor was de-
MED yesterday by Maj-Gen. Leonard
Wood. No such arrest has been
made, and no Japanese have taken
sketches OF the Notifications. It is
well known that since the American
occupation Japanese have been en-
gagged in making maps OF the Phil
ippines. There is no existing law
to prohibit them, although such laws
were I'm force under the Spanish re-
gime. Gen. Wood has Just returned
to Manila from a hunting expedi-
ton.

scene Of a double tragedy yesterday

Peary's dispatch to Mr.. Jessup
puts a different complexion upon his
return, II one may judge by the SEN

another campaign in the quest for
the pole as soon as his ship can be
refltted.

About two years 2 James Wright
was blown up by an explosion In a
niue at Malone. DR.. Croker picked
12j pieces Of rock out of him, and
thought he had got all Of them, but
was not prepared to guarantee that he
had all the waste located. For some
time Wright has been troubled with a
hard lump or his lip, and his friends
have been telling him he had a cancer
coming. He worried a great deal over
it, but his mother assured him it was
a piece OF rock left from the explosion,
and urged him TO go to the doctor and
have 1t extracted. The other day he
got to work on it himself, and dug out
a piece of high grade ore as big as
the end Of his little finger, aud since
then all sign OF a cancer has disappear
ed. The doctor thinks the piece of
ore must have been thoroughly asep-
tic, to have stayed so long in the flesh
without suppurating.

THE reports that have been made
on the meat business have been hor-
rifying the country, and 10 spite Of
their being made to the president, aud
by him sent TO congress they are not
complete enough, especially in n par
t~icular, and that is the identity Of the
packers. IL is generally understood
that the report refers TO Armour, and
IL may be some OF the other big plants,
but 1t does not say which plants IL ref
ers TO. The report also tells Of a pack
log plant in New York that IS clean,
but IL does not tell the name OF the
plant. The people who eat meat are
more interested 10 the Identity Of the
dirty plants. and the clean plants than
in anything else. They DO not want
10 eat the dirty meat, but they do
want TO eat clean meat. When they
hear that some packers meats are not
no TO eat, and can not find out the
name OF the packer they are suspicious
Of all packing houses meats. One
house 10 New York, the house that
makes the Franco German soups, is
using big space in the advertising col
umns OF the New York papers to tell
the people that their place is perfectly
clean, aud complains OF the general
tiles OF the government reports. OF
course IL would bel big advertisement
for any company to be exempted by
the government from the charges that
have been made by the PRESIDENT but
they, and their customers are as much
entitled TO this as are the people who
make exhibits at the various exposi-
tons entitled to the gold medals Of
fered by the government, and one is
advertising as much rs the other.
