FRIDAY, AUGUST "a, 1905.

On September Ist the Third National
Bank of Baltimore will iuaugurate night
service, for the convenience of patrons
who for various reasons are prevented
from doing all their banking before the
closing of what is considered the banking
hours of the day, at three O'Clock. On
and after the date mentioned the Third
National will remain open day and night,
twerty-four consecutive hours, Sundays
and holidays excepted. This is the first
National Bank in the country to inaug-
urate this system and it will undoubtedly
win for the institution large increase of
business, proving as it will a great con-
venience to those whose business often
compels them to carry over night in their.
safes sums of money of greater or less
amount received after the usual closing
hour of banks, and in other ways as we'll.

The situation in the republican camp
in Delaware seems about as unsettled as
before du Pont succeeded in getting him.
self elected to the U. S. Senate. the Union
and Regular factions still fighting as Bit
terly as ever for the control of the party.
Notwithstanding J. Edward Addicks was
pronounced to be down and out when he
lost the Senatorship, he declares that if
the du Pont Republicans want to effect
harmony in Delaware, they will have to
consult him regarding the placing of such
names as he and his friends may approve
on the ticket to be nominated by the
Union Republicans in their separate
State convention, at Dover, on August rs.
As this has not been accepted by the
Regular (du Pont) Republicans, nor is il
likely to be, it is evident that two Re.
publican tickets will be in the field at the
coming election.

Details of the great earthquake at Val.
paraiso on Thursday night of last week,
show that the Chilean city suffered dis
aster probably worse than that which re-
suited in the partial destruction of San
Francisco four months ago.
The latest estimate places the number
of dead at Valparaiso at 1000 and the
property loss at $3.50, 900, 900. Besides
this, there was great loss of life and enor-
nous property damage in other Chilean
cities and towns.
The people ofValparaiso are left des-
,titute. But little food remains in the
city, and st is sold at famine prices. Few
of the inhabitants can find shelter, and,
despite the fact that winter prevails in
that part of the world, and the nights
are very cold and windy, the people are
obliged to sleep in the open, cold and
miserable.
There is little chance that the earth
quake victims can receive such succor as
went to San Francisco, owing to the
great distance of the stricken city from
other cities which might send relief. For
this reason there is some fear that a
famine may follow the disaster of earth.

An instance of graft whereby the Bell

An instance of graft whereby the Bell
telephone trust defeated rival independent
concerns and obtained complete mono
poly in the city of Omaha, Neb., is
mentioned by the papers of that city, it
being charged that certain members of
the city council were approached by
representatives in the interest of the Bell
company, with propositions to absent
themselves from the city and remain
away for a considerable length of time,
during which the question of granting
franchises to independent companies was
under consideration by the council. ALL
expenses of the -adsentees were paid by
the Bell concern and during the "va-
cation" the Bell people manipulated
enough votes to defeat all attempts of the
independent companies to obtain fran
chises.

shall be injured in consequence Of
any persons intoxication, habitual or
otherwise, shall have a right of &C
ton for exemplary damages against
the person who, by selling or Civ
ing Intoxicating liquors, have caused
the intoxication.''
If the remarkable verdict returned
yesterday serves to direct attention
again to this rarely invoked and lit
tie needed section of the statute much
good will be. done. In this case a pro-
baton officer instituted the action on
behalf of the five helpless children
whose father had been brought to
ruin by drink. The dramshop law
and the municipal saloon regulations
are habitually violated by irresponsi-
bic and disreputable saloonkeepers
because of failure to apply the pen
alties for such offenses.
Children suffer many bitter wrongs.
Yesterdays verdict should go far to
protect them henceforth from one of
the most common of those to which
unoffending little ones have been sub
jeeted in the past.
