Careful attention should be given by all who
are interested in the protection Of game birds in
this state and country to the letter from Mr..
William T. Hornaday, director of the New-YOrk
Geological Park, which we took pleasure in pub
fishing yesterday. Mr.. Hornaday denounces a
measure which has been introduced at Albany
as calculated to lead to the determination of our
domestic game birds, and he explicitly charges
that the measure is being pushed partly by
false representation, and in at least two lie
Spects by absolute falsehOOds."
This is the gist of the matter: The proposed
measure is to legalize the Importation, sale and
serving of various foreign birds, which are so
much like some of our domestic birds that when
pucked and served they are practically indistin-
gushable. Mr.. Hornaday believes that if the
bill should become law there world be wholesale
slaughter-in the closed season'-Of the dOmes-
tic birds, which would then be sold aud served
as imported birds and Chat thus the law pro-
viding for a CLOSED season for the protection
Of American game would be practically nullifed,
with disastrous results.
We do not know the minds or the purposes Of
those who have framed and introduced the bill
in question. If. as Mr.. Hornaday directly
charges, they have been making false representa-
tons concerning it, they are liable to he sus-
pected of the worst. That such substitution Of
birds as Mr.. HOrnaday mentiOns-as sage grouse
for black cock and robins or meadow larks for
German quail-is not only perfectly possible but
is even now widely practised, every man famil-
lar with the subject knows. Mr.. HOrnaday
makes a powerful Indictment of the bill, and
unless there is speedily forthcoming q much
more effective reply than seems possible
the bill must be considered an evil one which
should be killed.

NEW TUNNEL ROADS IN LONDON

The Baker street and Waterloo railway, the
latest underground line in London opened TO
service will undoubtedly prove great con
venience TO It's patrons Hitherto facilities for
rapid transit northward and southwark in that
city have been less adequate than those for
travel eastward and westward. The new road
viii assist in establishing something like equal
ity in this respect. The people who are likely
TO use it have been obliged until now to rely on
motor omnibuses, which of course, cannot com
pete with underground trains in the matter Of
speed.
In the design and equipment of the Baker
street and Waterloo road there are no. innova-
lions of consequence. The most important de
parture from precedent seems to be the aban-
donment Of a feature which is found in most
of the other tunnels in London. In many in
stances the track is made TO ascend when en-
tering a station and descend when leaving it.
The influence Of grayitation is thus utilized both
in stopping and starting a train. Inasmuch as
there is a rather heavy grade in one direction
on the new line, this plan has not been fol
lowed. The effect on the running time Of trains
may be barely perceptble, but it, will hardly
prove serious. At least no unpleasant anticipa-
tons on this score appear TO be entertained.
BY a leading English periodical, Engineer
ing" the opinion is expressed that the system
Of ventilation adopted for the new line viii give
better satisfaction than any previously tried
in London. Fans have been provided near each
station, TO exhaust the air from the tube below,
and fresh supplies will flow down the stair
cases. An admirable circulation at the station
is thus insured and the good work is TO be
completed by the pistonlike action Of the trains
Possibly this plan may prove superior to sue
ton at the ends of a tunnel alone, but it is not
exactly adapted TO a subway like that in New
York CITY In London. the passages in which
the electric trains run are cylindrical, and their
diameters are not very much greater than those
Of the cars. There is a separate tube for each
track. To produce the desired ventilation here
! it seems to be necessary 10 place the fans half
/ way between stations.

FURTHER RETURNS FROM JOLO.

FURTHER RETURNS FRON JOLO'
Additional reports of the action at Mount
Daio confirm the correctness of the President
estimate Of it and cause confusion TO those
critics who were so ready TO go off at half cock
with furious denunciations of the bloodthirsty
barbarities Of the American army. 1t now ap-
pears that there was no complete determination
OF the outlaw band Every effort was made
TO avoid injuring the women and children
many of whom were saved, and supplies as
sistance and shelter were promptly given TO
them by our troops after the battle As for
the charge that the action was needlessly pre-
cipitate and that the outlaws might have been
captured without & fight if a little patience had
been exercised il Is now to be observed that
efforts to induce or compel them TO surrender
had been patiently made for six months with
out effect the fanatical Moslems believing they
would be able to hold their crater-fortress for
at least two years Finally as TO the status of
these martyr patriots who died defending
their homes and their liberties" 1t is to be
observed that a number Of leading Moros ac-
lively cO-Operated with our troops and that the
Sultan and his chief dattOs are cOngratulating
our troops and are rejoicing in the Kidding of
the island Of a pest and q burden, so that now
the fields can be titled and industries prosecuted
without molestation
u il be asked why we were not told all this
made. One is that It is too much to expect all
things in an hour" even all the facts concern
ing a battle Full accounts of all the circum-
stances Of far more important incidents than
this at a far less distance from home have
often been delayed and distributed through a
number Of days. It is not strange that 1t should
be so in this case. Indeed, we may not look
for entirely full information until advices are
received by mail. several weeks hence. The
other answer is that both discretion and de-
cency required it TO be assumed al the outset
that our army had acted in a becoming manner.
Our army has not, In all its history, been so
noted for cruelty and barbarism as TO warrant
any one in hastily assuming it has displayed
those qualities. Certainly II is entitled to the
common privilege which is accorded 10 even the
worst Of men, Of being considered innocent Of
wrongdOing until it is proved guilty. To be
Iieve in the absence of proof the worst Of the
army. and 70 assume. on the most meagre and
fragmentary reports, that the flag Of the nation
has been stained with dishonOr, and all for the
sake Of venting partisan spite is a most I'M
worthy and discreditable thing.

The plausbility OF the theory that Herr Steinbac8
had been engaged as the next conductor OF tbs
Boston Symphony Orchestra received its frst blow
when II became plain that Major Hgginson had
not sought to re-engage Mt Gertcke for term
Of years but only for one year. II Is now a wide
spread belief among those familiar with musisa!
affairs in Boston that conductor has been chosen
from among the we'll known men OF Europe, but
that he cannot secure a release from his present
obligations until after the next season Hence the
present search for conductor who viii serve al
interim There was no likelihood that Herr Stein
bach would give up the prominent position which
he fins in Cologne for a years engagement
The reported engagement OF Mr.. SafOnO6 as con-
ductor for three years by the Philharmonic society
OF New York still lacks official confirmation and
while likely. Is not assured fact. Some Of ne
ladies who were interested IN securing the tInd
necessary for his engagement have Withdrawn
their subscriptions and ceased their efforts because
Of their unwilllngness to countenance union Of ths
interests Of the Philharmonic Society and the Na-
tional Conservatory OF Music, which was said 70
be willing to defray portion OF the cost Of bring
ing Mr.. Safonon 70 America Moreover the only
assurance that has been received by the directors
OF the Philharmonic Society was not sent by Mr.
Safonofr himself. but by gentleman who Is friend.

in the central district would entail serious
loss to the operator, for his present market
would be appropriated at better prices by nom
union rivals in West Virginia, Kentucky ana
other states. 1t is alleged that corporations IN
terested in West Vlrginias development are
quietly working TO force a strike in the central
district with a view 10 extending West Viz
ginia's selling area. This latter state has now
passed Illinois as a coal producer and STANDS
second only TO Pennsylvania. 1t must sell al
most the whole of It's coal product outside It's
own borders. and would welcome a chance 10
enlarge its market through shutdown in Hi
nos. Indiana, Ohio and Pennsylvania. Inc
PENNSYLVANIA operators are not inclined to play
West Virginia's game, but those from Illinois
and Indiana are said TO take more superhclal
view of the situation. An increase of % per
cent in the miners wages would seem 10 he the
most practical solution Of the problem in the
bituminous field. The settlement made IN the
soft coal district will determine, also, whether
peace or war is to be declared after April in
the hard coal industry.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1906-03-20

half of 1t is spoiled in transit while the other
half is rejected because it is something that no
body wants The secret of British and German
supremacy, says the agent quoted lies in their
recognition of the fact that the Chinese will buy
only things that suit them and in their coIse-
quent carefulness to make and send exactly what
the Chinese want.
This latter point is one to which we have often
called attention in connection with our South
American trade. 1t is one that needs to be
pressed home, often and with vigor. Americans
are so accustomed to think Of their own country
as the best in the world, and Of their own ways
and tastes superior to any other peoples,
that they forget the necessity of catering to the
tastes and desires of those to whom they would
sell goods, even though the latter be presumably
inferior. 1t is really no particular business Of
ours whether the Chinese want what we regard
as the best goods or not. Our business is to
supply them with what they want, no matter
how Outlandish it may seem TO us. If they pre-
fer caicoes that will not wash and razors that
will not shave. we may perhaps as matter Of
disinterested benevolence, point out to them in
an academic manner the error of their ways but
practical business sense requires that until we
have converted them to better tastes we shall
supply them with exactly the things they prefer.
