the expecta tions of the workers.
Having received so many valuable articles
Father Durck and the Ladies' Auxiliary were
unable TO dispose of them in weeks time, so
they were obliged to continue until last Tuesday
evening. On Wednesday evening they held a
euchre under the tent. There were 200 persons
present, many coming from Father Durick's

the returns are made the workers expect TO

EXCUSES FOR SHUT SuOKE.

The same old excuses for smut smoke are put
forward by the culprts whom the Health Board
brings 10 book. Some say they cannot get an
thracite coal. some that il is hard TO get. some
that il would cost them more than soft coal
and some that they were Just kindling their
fires when the Objectionable smoke was emit
ted. Tell that 10 the justices of Special Ses-
slons, said committing magistrate the other
day. Yes, or TO the proyerba marines.
For such excuses are not valid. The ObieC-
ton is not to the fuel but to the smoke. A
man may burn hard coal or soft coal, or, like
the historic Prairie Belle rosin and pine. But
be may not emit black smoke from his chin
ney. If he wants TO burn fuel that makes
black smoke. he must employ some smoke pre-
venting device. else a stOker who knows
his business. Perhaps that will cost him
money. Perhaps smOkeless fuel will cost him
more than smoky fuel. That does not matter
That it costs something to obey the law is no
excuse for breaking the law
As for that worm-eaten chestnut of an ex-
that the fire was just being kindled there
are chimneys that have been smoking like We
suvius day and night for the last ten years.
and whenever the firemen are arrested for the
nuisance that plea is made in their behalf.
How many years does ii take to get fire
started?
The fact IS. lot of men have decided that
il is cheaper for them To make smoke with
their fires and 10 be occasionally fined for it
than 10 comply with the law. and so they are
deliberately. persstenty and defiantly ignor-
ing the law and charging the incidental fines
to profit and loss. IL man can save $1,000 Il
year 10y breaking the law. he will willingly pay
one or two fines of SO each. We are inclined
to think however. that a way will he found to
make breaking Improbable

CRIMINAL LAW MYSTERIES.

The irrationality Of criminal procedure in this
country is a cause Of frequent and bitter COM
plaint- This procedure has been so twisted and
ampihed as TO offer an exaggerated protection
10 the criminal and TO strip the community of a
portion OF its natural right 10 enforce justice
against evildoers. Delays appeals stays. re
bearings and other legal weapons are put in the
hands OF defendant who can pay the costs Of
a contest and technicalities are allowed TO over
shadow the real issue which courts are created
10 determine-the issue of actual wrongdoing
or innocence. The process is too frequently over
valued and the end neglected in our criminal
practice. and We have consequently the spectacle
of judicial officers fencing and wrangling over
methods of trial or indictment and treating the
msdeeds themselves only as so much raw ma
terial for legal exploitation. dispute now

and that Russia never thought about the Pan
American Congress ut all.
Both of these disclaimers may readily be ac-
cepted. We have seen no reason for supposing
Germany to be hostile TO the Pan-Amertcan Con-
gress. On the contrary, her prompt Endorsement
of the American request for postponement OF
the congress at The Hague would seem to indi-
cate Just the reverse But if Russia was alone
responsible for the suggestion Of the unaccept-
able date we can reason for supposng
that she moved by anti-American feelings.
but are quite ready to believe she chose that
date without thinking of the congress at Rio-a
belief strengthened by her amiable willingness
to change the date in accordance with American
desires
There is probably no country in the world that
cherishes fewer illusions than this concerning
the sentiments and attitude of Messrs. Goblin
and Short There is none more ready to culti-
vate honest friendship with them both and with
all powers.

''the District Attorneys Office as constituted at

To this criticism the District Attorney has re-
piled that he was never unwilling to cooperate

cooperate if some one else begins the action In

contemporary that such usage is bad usage and

WHO PAID THE TAY?

An interesting feature of the debate in the
Senate just before the passage of the Recording
Tax bill was the argument against the measure
founded on two opposite and irrecOncable as
sumptions. The fight for the repeal of the Mort
gage Tax law charged against two sets of
corporations, the lending trust and the borrow
ing trust. each of which was said TO be the sole
prospective beneficiary of a change.
Senator Lewis at one moment argued against
the substitution of a recording tax the
ground that the Ryan Belmont interests, the
New York Central and other great corporations
might give mortgages and escape taxation, thus
clearly admitting that the borrower paid the
tax A few minutes later he charged that the
Allied Real Estate Interests of New York had
conducted q campaign for the benefit of those
who had millions invested in bonds and mort
cages and desired to dodge taxation, thus as
serting that it was the lender who paid the
tax.
Now, unless the annual mortgage tax is far
more iniquitous than we have ever believed 1t
to he, and much more urgently in need of re-
peal than we had supposed. In spite of our
strong objections to it, 1t certainly is not paid
by both the borrower and the lender We have
maintained that it double taxation, because
it was an added burden on the land. which was
already taxed, but have never gone so far as it's
own friends in insisting upon its double charac-
ter. If the corporations when borrowing would
profit by the repeal, then the small borrower
would also. AS matter of fact, the experience
of the last year has shown that the borrower,
whether an individual, or a corporation, paid the
tax. Its imposition has been an annoyance to
the real estate interests. 1t has made lending
more difficult and interfered with the busi-
ness of the great loaning companies, but as they
have uniformly raised their interest rates the
only disadvantage to them is through the cur
tailment of loans. Their business is to make
loans attractive and put out many as possi-
BILE. That fact accounts for their activity
against the annual tax, which the borrower GER
tainly paid. The considerable number of rural
Senators voting for the repeal indicates that
the country borrower has paid. too.

CITY OFFICES OPEN.
Good Friday Not GeneraIIg Oh
serUed as HOHdaU Here.

Good Friday was ignored by the Departments a,
the city government yesterday for the first TIN.
In many years 1t has been the custom OF n.
Board Of Aldermen to pass a resolution each year
requesting heads OF departments to close their A.
fees from the Thursday before Easter until Ia
following Monday morning but this year the cur
tom was omitted on the advice OF the Corpor,tc
Counsel because many Of the city employees vi,
are paid by the day objected to the loss Of thss
days pay. Accordingly all the departments vsr
open for business usual yesterday. The cns
city employees who not at work were ths
teachers OF the public schools. who have had 4
whole week Of holidays.
For the second time in nearly forty years-ts
preceding occasion having been IN 1898. when the
Spanish war was in progress-the New York Stock
Exchange omitted yesterday TO observe Good n
day as a holiday. Many more brokers than hs.
been expected to appear were the floor at The
opening. and the nemberS gallery-the public yzl
lery. on the Broad street side, being closed FOR
pairs-was thronged with sightseers. many Of WHOM

ness prevailed the floor The total sales Of
stocks were $4,000 shares, comparing with Ss.@ on

MOROCCO-BOUND TRADE.

The most practical consideration for Amer-
cans concerning the Algecirds settlement is
what effect the new arrangement is likely to
have on our Moroccan trade Hitherto that
trade has been small. Our exports To Morocco
have been insignificant. amounting TO not more
than $4,000 year. Indeed the total imports
of Morocco have been small for so large 4
country. They have amounted. for a popula-
ton of 5OO0O00 or more. to only about So
100000 year. while those of Tunls, with only
100000 population. S170O0OOO and those
of Algeria, with scarcely as large population
as Morocco. are $73.000,O00.
No doubt the increase of European Influence
I'm Morocco will mean an increase of that conn
try's foreign trade and in that the United
States ought TO share. There are those who
have prophesied otherwise warning lis that
French dominance In Morocco would mean tho
closing OF doors against all but French com
merce and they have pointed to MADAGASCAR
"A confrmatory example. 1t is quite trpe
that our trade with Madagascar has almost van
lshed since the French conquest In 1898 Amer
lean sales to that island were S226. TBS. and in
