CLEVELAND, Ohio, June 12.-Timely
hitting tells the whole story of how
Washington beat Cleveland yesterday
by TO l. but all the hitting had to
BE- done before Joss got out OF the game
after the fourth inning. as the Nation
ais could do nothing with Eells. who
succeeded him.
Anderson made a home run, scoring
a man after TWO were OUT. Stahl made
a triple with man on first; Jones per
formed the same feat. and Schlahy. af-
ter two were out in the fourth round,
made single that scored Jones. That
Is certainly as timely as a check from
home i'm the batting line. and the club
is to be congratulated upon coming to
life in such a manner.
Altizer, who had fallen back little
in, his batting, bobbed up again with
Two singles. Another encouraging sign
was the base running. Schlafy stole
two bases and Cross. StahI. and Altizer
got one each. Hickman continued his
recent improvement in batting by max
ing a pair of singles. Altogether, IL was
one Of the checrieSt games the Nation
ais have put up since they began their
losing streak.

CAUSING TROUBLE IN CHINA.

Some time ago the Chinese commits
sioners who were sent TO this country
to learn an about America, were enter
tanned by the missionary boards. and
the speeches made on that occasion ma
turally turned upon the missionaries In
China. one Of the commissioners deli
cately lntimated that It would be to
mutual advantage n the missionaries
were restrained from undue interter-
Cnce with the Chinese laws and GUS
toms one OF the boards has now de-
cidod to Instruct It's missionaries IN
china TO Interfere with the courts only
when so authorized by the mission sta
ton to which they are attached.
This peculiar decision Is, we presume
taken In the interest of justice and falr
play. and Tor the protection OF con-
yorts who may become the objects OF
persecution, but It proves. nevertheless,
that the charge made by the Chinese
officials ms TO interference with the ad-
mulstation OK their laws, Is well
founded, IL may be true that some of
the Chinese laws are unjust, II judged
by American standards, but the lndig-

EARTHQUAKE FAKERs.

A short time ago We briefly referred TO
the colossal falsehoods that have been
circulated as incidents OF the recent
San Francisco calamity. A correspond
ent of an Omaha paper seems TO be
the unapproachable Munchausen Of the
fraternity of earthquake takers. He
tells Of the murder OF $50 patients In
hospital, because they could not be
removed alive. As quoted by the Los
Angeles Express. he says.
II was with the Red Cross and have
my badge now We were In Me-
chanlcs' pavilion. and when, Friday,
after the quake. the fire came so close
that we saw II must 80, all people that
It was thought could recover were first

Iurcd people--those with mangled
bodies or broken or burned limbs, and
they begged 10 be shot TO ease their
misery and escape being burned alive.
we're chloroformed by doctors and
nurses and some Red Cross men. and
shot by the soldiers. II was done as
an act OF humanity. II Is doubtful II
they would have recovered even II the
fire had spared the building. But
there were $50 In that building alone.
In the Fat building on Golden Gate
avenue ! saw 40 bodies taken out"
The modesty OF this manufacturer OF
falsehood is seen IN the fact that he
limited the number Of murdtred vic
Tins to three hundred and fifty. He
might have increased the horror by
multiplying that figure by ten. or a
hundred. and asked proportionally
higher price for his lie No word OF
oensure Of such falsiflers Is too strong.
The orlginators of falsehoods Intend
ed for public consumption and sold as
truths, are simply thieves Of the lowest
type. But they are not the only ones
deserving censure What Of the
journals that publish their efforts, thus
perpetrating n fraud upon their read
ers? And what OF the public that sup
ports the taking journals, even when
their true character is abundantly es-
tabllshed? Ultimately, the blame ls
upon the readers. II they would exer-
else the censure IT is their duty in
free country TO apply TO the literature
offered them, the journals would soon
become models of accuracy and reia-
bility. In this country va do not have
government censorship, II is the busi-
ness OF the people TO exercise that
function. But that duty Is neglected
when support IL not withdrawn from
concerns that unscrupulously endeavor
to flourish on deception.
