AHTI-DC uINIcAN INTRIGUEs.

A Senator OF the United States doubtless had
a right in the last session Of Congress to desire
the annexation Of SantO Domingo to this country,
to say so on the floor of the Senate and to intro
duce a resolution to that effect. He had right
to regard the American treaty with SantO Do
mlngO a step toward such annexation, to
hope that 1t would prove such and to vote for
the ratification Of the treaty for that reason
He had a right to set forth these extraordinary
views in a letter to q private citizen who was
commercially interested in Santo Domingo. and
the recipient had right to have that letter pub
lshed and widely circulated throughout Santo
Domingo for the purpose Of prejudicing the peo-
pie of the island against the treaty as inimical
TO their independence and thus preventing It's
ratification. Nothing stood in the way Of the
exercise OF these rights save considerations of
patriotism and decOTum.
1t would be a melancholy mistake. however,
for the DOmlnicans to attach any serious signlf-
icance to such a Senatorial procurement or to
regard it as anything more than the expression
OF an individual opinion. It certainly does not
represent the views or the purposes Of the
United States government 1t is not the voice
of the Senate. but OF only One-ninetieth Of that
body. 1t is not the voice or the thought of the
American people, but Of only one-eighty-mill-
ionth part of them. There is reason for the I'M
hesitating assurance that the views Of the adj
ministration and of the overwhelming majority
Of the Senate-that is. Of the American makers
Of the treaty-are diametrically opposed to
those set forth in the Senatorial letter and that
the treaty was negotiated and ratified by our
Senate not as step toward annexation. but as
an effective precautiOn against any occasion for
subversion or impairment OF Dominican indie
pendence.
This and all other intrlgues against the Do
minican treaty are really against the best inter.
ests Of SantO Domingo rs we'll as against the
national comfort Of the United States. and it
will be well II they are SO recognized In Santo
Domingo-as they already are In this country.

Regret and sympathy Will be aroused by the
announcement that Captain William Swift, who
was in command OF the battleship Connecticut
when she ran upon a shoal near Culebra last
January has been found guilty of negligence In
connection with that mishap and subjected to a
serious penalty. At the same time Captain
Swifts friends win DO gTatihed and we hope
that he himself will be consoled, by the action
OF the court In unanimously recommending him
to the clemency Of the revising power. "in view
"of the long service of the accused his excellent
land honorable record and his previous excep-
uonally valuable services to the government"
II IT, OF course. imperative. as the Secretary of
the Navy says in adopting this recommendation
and reducing the sentence. that the captain Of a
war vessel should be held to a strict response
bility FOR tho safety of the ship and its officers
and men: but we are sure that all who have
knowledge of Captain Swift's devoted service

honor will lament the necessity Of inhIcting
punishment on an officer whose record Of eff
cheney and faithfulness entities him 20 the re-

Probably the greatest two advances In sur
gerry in the last hundred years were effected in
the use of anesthetics and in the disinfection
of surgical instruments and wounds. One averts
the pain incident to an operation the other re-
duces the risk enormously and encourages
many a venture which could not otherwise be
safely undertaken. For initiating the second OF
these reforms the honor. is unquestionably due
to Lord Lister. who will this week round out
his eIghtieth year or the worlds apprecia-
ton OF his services to humanity he has already

preaching anniversary he will undoubtedly re-
ceive new assurances OF the universal venera-

THIRTY KILLED
IN 1 STRIKE
DISORDER

Lodz. Russian Poland. Aug. This city
Is again the scene of a strike movement
accompanied by disorder and death. The
troops have encountered the strikers in
the centre of the town, and some 80 men
have been killed or wounded in this fight
alone. Business Is at a standstill. and
fears are entertained OF what the day
may bring forth. The trouble came to a
head yesterday, and in spite of the ag-
gressive stand taken by the authorities,
the disorders are recommending early
this morning as this dispatch is filed.
The strike would appear TO be the be-
ginning of a big labor war, and the work
mems unions are prepared for long
struggle. The immediate cause of the out
break yesterday was the course pursued
by the police during the past eight days
I'm making a large number of arrests In
attempts 10 break down the unions The
principal Socialist leaders have been
thrown into jail.
Yesterday bands of laborers were or
dered to wreck street cars This they
did in a number Of cases, and later used
the cars as barricades from which to
stone the police.
At 3 p. m. the military forces were
mobilized, but there was no conflict until
Q o'clock last night. when the opposing
forces met in the centre of the town. The
fighting was serious and prolonged. The
workmen fired several hundred shots. and
did not disperse until they had been
charged by cavalry. At least 30 men were
killed or wounded.

ASYLUM IN 4
FIERCE BLAZE

Pittsburg, Aug. 1.-During n fire last
night that threatened to destroy the mu-
nicipal institutions OF this city at Mar
shalsea, u miles from here. ore life was
lost and the $50 patients in the insane pa
vilion, all more or less violent, were
made frantic by the glare of flames shin
ing through the barred windows.
All the attendants, reinforced by fire.
men and county detectives, entered the
building. and for a while II appeared
doubtful whether the crazed men and
women would be got out. The patients.
however. responded to the efforts of the
authorities, and all were taken to places
OF safety.
The fire started in the laundry of the
main building and spread quickly The
administration building and the hospital
were destroyed. and three of the inmates.
wards OF the city. were injured seriously.
AS there is no fire fighting apparatus at
the institutions to cope with fire OF this
magnitude, help was summoned from this
city. Three fire engines with quantity
of fire hose were sent aboard special
train. Another call for more fire fighting
apparatus was received, and second
train with two more fire engines was
sent.
With the second train a number of po-
lice and county detectives were sent to
assist the attendants at the institution In
caring for the inmates.
The inmates of the various buildings
were ordered out as soon as the fire be-
gan to spread, and were herded together
on the lawns a short distance from the
burning buildings.

PANIC CAME 1T
BOSTON BRIDGE
DEDICATION

Boston. Aug IA Home Week
throng OF many thousands OF people
watching the display of fireworks at
the dedication OF the new $3.000.000
bridge across the Charles river was
thrown into a panic last night when
the police lost control of the multi
tude and half a dozen or more per-
sons were pushed into the river by the
great crush OF people behind them.
For time II was feared that hun
dreds would be drowned I'm the mad
scramble. The accident occurred on
the Cambridge side of the river, near
the end OF the new bridge, and only
prompt action OF the cooler men in the
crowd and almost superhuman activity
on the part OF the police prevented
terrible catastrophe.
The dedication was one of the spec
tacular features OF the weeks program
and drew a crowd which mounted well
up into six figures
Six men and boys were dragged out
of the water by the police, while
others are known TO have been res
cued by their companions or TO have
escaped without assistance. Reports
were circulated that many had been
drowned, and these added greatly to
the excitement. During the wild rush
several women tainted and others were
hurt, but IL is not believed that any
one was injured seriously.

TEN-YEAR-0LD
BOY. SIX TIMES
4 BURGLAR

John Syckkowski. 10 years old. this
morning in the Juvenile court, was held
Tor the grand jury to answer 10 the
charges OF breaking and entering in the
daytime the store OF Thomas Millet, and
the larceny of IS. breaking and entering
In the night time the store OF John Nc
Gam. and the larceny OF 81. and entering
In the daytime the store of Joseph Nor
gan and the larceny of 81.
Capt. Whipple of Station 6 told the
court that the boy had been before the
court three times already on similar
charges. that the boy makes a study OF
this kind OF crime, and that he sleeps on
a couch in the cellar OF his house, enter
Ing and leaving at will by the window
He said that Tuesday night the boy broke
with a stone the transom of a rear win
dow OF a store door with the intention of
coming back and robbing the store. and
would undoubtedly have done so had he
not oversight. The father OF the boy was
in court, but had little to say as to why
he could not control his boy. The lads
brother, Joseph. aged IA. was in court,
and he was called to the attention OF
Judge Rueckert by Capt Whipple. who
said that he was implicated In store rob-
berries.
Judge Rueckert decided that the young
er boy must be punished and held him
for the grand jury in surety OF $500 on
each case, and warned Joseph to go slow
and mend his ways lest he be brought be-
fore the court.
