BRAKEMEN WILL GO ON

Numerous are the conservative" ex-
plantations OF Gov. Hughes veto OF the
bill providing for a given number or
brakemen on trains. whether they are
needed or not We mean explanations by
those who are trying TO convince the pub
lie or themselves that this veto is only
anothre incident OF a reactionary move
ment Yet the sound reason under the
governors action is so clear and simple
that any one ought to be able TO under
stand what IL means. II Is no more nor
less than he has provided an instrument
already-the public service commission
which can do much better the work pro-
vided for In the bill. II one more brake
man is needed anywhere he can be forced
on; or two more, or three, or as many
as are required The evil Of putting on
one extra where he Is not needed Is that
such policy would inevitably result In
one less than was needed somewhere else.
The enforcement of the law as drawn
would have meant superflulty of labor
here and a dearth of II there In train SER
vice This would be stupid as well as
unjust And IL would injure, not benefit
the public service, for economic waste In
one spot is always at the expense of the
public in another spot, since material
which might have ben employed to ad-
vantage where needed has already been
consumed needlessly. Gov. Hughes is not
doing either stupid or unjust things. I'm
der his policy there will be more extra
brakemen where they are required than
there would have been or could have been
under the measure which he wisely ve-
toed-New York Press.

WHY A "FAILURE"?

If dispatches from st. Louis are to be
believed, the famous Phoebe w. Couzins'
once shining light in the halls OF the
woman suffragists. and the first feminine
United States marshal nthe land, has re-
canted on the beliefs and teachings OF
former years. She is reported to have de-
clared that suffrage for her sex has been
a failure; that the country is not ready
for women's votes and will not be for
some time to come, and that the suf-
fragists were on the wrong track"
This is, indeed. surprising. for ladies'
of Miss Couzins' persuasion rarely give
up the faith. They are dogged in the face
OF obstacles, hopeful in the midst OF de-
feat For this particular reason, then. we
venture to ask Phoebe, from the stand
point OF mere man. why she believes wom-
an suffrage has been a failure? 1t has not
vet begun IN any real and definite way. A
few western states grant women the bal
lot. but no genuinely vital trial of the
matter has been made. over in Finland
they are doing better; there Is the true
world test today. Let US not call any
movement q failure until II has had a
fair and square opportunity.-Boston

BASEBALL IN ENGLAND

It is fully n quarter of century
since the first attemt was made TO
popularize baseball in England. But
1t was sterile ground for the magic
diamond. The sport was too brisk. too
continuously strenuous, to suit our
English cousins. The idea of finishing
up a game in a few hours instead OF
letting II lap over into the next day
was an offence against custom and an
insult to tradition. Nevertheless. the
admirers OF the sport did not give up
the hope of transplanting 1t. And
now their efforts sem to be crowned
with a fair measure OF success. Sew
eral games have been played recently
in the vicinity OF London before audi
ences that steadily increase In size.
The scores have been too large. per-
haps. to indicate pitching skill, or per-
feet fielding. but the Interest is OF a
lively character. the good plays receiv-
ing instant recognition, and wild ac-
claims greeting the long hits In fact
one OF the strongest proofs that the
game has at last caught on in Eng
land is found in the statement in one
of the London papers that close de-
csion in n recent game was received
with a low murmur OF disapproval, a
murmur that was suddenly punctuated
by an excited spectator who wildly
shrieked xiii the umpire" undreds
of others then took up the cry, but
happily their animoslty was confined
entirely to objurgations. rs the London
editor tells us. the umpire suffering no
actual violence at the hands OF the eX-
cited audience.
IL simply needed this one touch OF
baseball nature to show that both
American and English enthusiasts are
kin. Now II the English will throw
cushions. with an occasional pop bot
tie, and raise pandemonum when they
desire to rattle the pitcher and lift
their voices In contumefy at every
misplay, we will be fully convinced
that baseball Is in merry England to
stay.-Cleveland Plain Dealer

REV. DR.. SCOTS
SHARP ANSWER
TO HIS CRITICS

Worcester. Mass. June 20-Rev. DR. w.
H. Scott OF this city, president OF the Con-
gregational Sunday School and Publishing
socity, who was severely criticised In the
report OF the committee appointed TO IN
vestignte the financial condition of tho
organization Tuesday, has issued the fol-
lowing reply TO the report OF the investi-
eating committee:
'The report of the Investigating COM
mittee. so far as It referred to myself.
seems to have been based on misnforma-
ton. though the facts I'm the case were
easily ascertainable. At the last annual
meeting of the society, in April, 1906,
asked to be retired from the position of
president. since the new plan Of the So
ciety called for more compact director
ship which could meet promptly and often
and felt that / was too busy to give
day In Boston as frequently as was de-
sired.
"Slnce. however. the society did not
wish to make unnecessary changes at
that time in the general officers, l agreed
to remain another year In the office of
president, provided that II should be
merely nominal position and not an ac-
tive responsibility. That was thoroughly
understood and agreed to by ALI concern
ed
THE charge OF the investigating COM
mittee that had been delinquent during
the past IA months in not giving the time
and labor to the interests OF the society
which ! gave steadily for seven years
previously is absurd. I never agreed to
continue In the active service of the So
cety during this period and no member
OF the management expected me TO do 80
Another chairman OF the executive COM
mittee was elected In my place because
I declined TO continue I'm the position
and / dropped out OF personal RESPONSE
bility for the work.
THAT this understanding was general
among the officers and members of the
society is indicated by the action Of the
society yesterday, when the proposed
censure of the investigating committee
was stricken from the report by vote
of to 1 In my favor"

NO INITIATION DANGERS

II will be hard for the men who
are now crying out imitation" to get
up n scare in the country. Gold is now

nation" shouters say that the In

cause OF the expectation, they are not
likely TO receive much attention. Mo-
body believes that many millions OF
gold will be exported. and not ma1y
persons care how much Is exported

excess OF our hoard of 1906 that we
can spare a good many millions with

TRUST
NOT AN ILLEGAL
COMBINATION

New York, June 2C.--Under a decision
made yesterday by Judge Rosalsky In
general sessions the so-called Theatrical
Trust Is not a combination In restraint
or trade. and he dismissed the indict-
ments for conspiracy against Klaw q
Granger. Al Hayman. Charles Froham
and Nixon & Zimmermon were indicted
with them, but their cases were not con-
sidered, as they have not been arrested.
There Is no appeal from the decision,
which will undoubtedly hold In the other
cases.
The indictments were found on testi-
mony by David Belasco, Lee Shubert and
some out-of-town managers that the de-
PENDANTS had "unlawfully created and
maintained monopoly and engaged TO
prevent others by force, threats and in
timidation from exercising lawful
trade" 1t was also charged that they
had formed an obnoxious agreement"
I'm restraint OF trade and commerce and
that threats had been made by the trust
to intimidate owners OF theatres not to
book plays controlled by Belasco and
Shubert.
The decision goes over the evidence pre-
sented TO the grand jury relating TO the
contracts between the trust and out-of-
town theatres. and the threats to intimi-
date theatre owners. The decision says:
1T seems 10 me that plays and en-
tertainments OF the stage are not ar
use; that leasing and controlling thea
tres and producing plays therein is not
trade and that, therefore, the defendants
did not commit acts injurious TO trade
or commerce"
The case thus ended is the one in which
Col. Felix r. Wendelscbaefer. proprietor
OF the Providence Opera House, was an
important witness against the Klaw-Er-
langer syndicate a few months ago At
that time Col Wendelschaefer gave
detailed account Of the working OF the
syndicate as referred to the money ac-
cruing TO the theatre managers who
booked the syndicate attractions.
He showed that II was nearly impossible
under the system OF division OF proceeds
from syndicate shows In vogue at that
time for the theatre managers to make
anything out OF their business. He told
OF the percentage which had to go TO
the Klaw- Erlanger forces. through whom
the attraction We're booked. the portion
OF the receipts which was diverted to
the company itself and then OF the very
small portion divided to the use Of the
theatre managers, like himself.

COULDN'T HAVE
SAID THAT

There must have been something wrong
with the dispatch which yesterday made
the British ambassador say, when asked
IL the Oklahomans hadn't put good
many things In their constitution that are
usually left for the statute book. TOO
much cannot be put I'm a constitution"
AS the experience OF many pations has
proved not only that too much Gan be put
in a constitution, but that too much
usually has been, and as Mr.. Bryce knows
as much about the experience of natiors
as any man whose name occurs TO us at
the moment, the chances seem to us TO be
largely I'm favor OF the assumption that
he was somehow misunderstood and mis-
quoted.
We will therefore leave to others the
task OF scolding him for what he didn't
say. and will calmly wait till we hear
what he did say. confident that when 1t
comes IL will prove as wise as the other
statement Is absurd-New York Times.

THE CZAR'S TREACHERY

Once more the White Terror reigns i'm
Russia. Not only has the Douma again
been dissolved In mid-session. but con-
stitutional guarantees voluntarily given
by Nicholas have been arbitrarily set
aside by Nicholas.
ST. Petersburg has been converted into
military camp. Seven hundred arrests
were made Saturday. All the railway sta
tions are guarded to prevent Social Demo-
cratic deputies and other political agita-
tors from leaving the capital. The press Is
prohibited from criticsng the govern
ment under pain OF suppression. The po-
lice know no law, the ministers no prin-
ciple. Autocratic anarchy is supreme.
II was not certain even that the Douma
would reject Premier Stolypin's demand
that the 55 Social Democratic deputies be
expelled and the Arrest of 16 OF their lead
ers be sanctioned for conspiring against
the government They had been legally
elected as representatives OF the Russian
pople. The Car himself had decreed their
immunity from arrest as deputies. The
Douma had merely referred the govern
ments evidence 10 a committee. with or
ders TO report today. But Stoypin did rot
want an answer, only pretext for end
ing the Douma. The Czar, who had crea-
ted the constitutional provision that the
electoral law could be changed only with
the consent OF parliament, seized the OPP
portunity to disfranchise eptlre provinces
and nationalities and to deprive OF the
suffrage whole classes whose votes the
government cannot control.

on, the CZar defies the Russian II asses.

WHY GIRLS DO
NOT MARRY

In the old days getting married was the
only respectable way I'm which a girl
could be sure of a home and support. {.
Since women began to earn wages that
standard has changed. If woman finds
II pleasanter 10 earn her own living than
To marry such men as seek her. she is at
liberty to do II. The rapid growth OF un-
married business women shows vividly
how often marriage In the days before
wage earning was a counsel OF despera-
tion rather than of love. But only very
small percentage OF wage earning women
are college graduates. The factories have
done 10 times as much as the colleges 10
postpone or defeat marriage. Any social
condition which decreases the number or
homes is deplorable. but 1t is unfair To
put more than their limited share OF the
blame upon the colleges.-Brooklyn Eagle.

COMET IN OPERA GLASS

A telegram from Prof. Campbell of
the Lick observatory, states that
Daniels comet was observed there on
June 13 by DIR. Aiken and that the
comet was visible in an opera glass.
This new cemetary apparition was
first detected by Prof. Zaccheus Daniel
at Princeton on June 9. Again Prof.
Daniel observed II on June IL. when
IL was visible in a small telescope.
Although when first described at
Princeton the new comets motion was
not distinctly observable. 1t has been
apparently moving since then toward
the sun with an increase OF speed.
The nearer approach to the sun ex-
plains the marked increase of Its
brightness in four days from n tele-
scopic object to one visible in an opera
glass. AS comet comes more within
the exciting electrical influence of the
sun its appearance changes and IL
often develops n nucleus throwing of
luminous jets toward the sun, and oc-
casionally curving and opening In fan
shape. The new comet, which Is now
speeding perhaps at a velocity of more
than 90 miles second. may develop
a nucleus and head of remarkable brill
lance.
The great comet Of 1853 when first
discovered, on June 2, was a small.
inconspicuous object, but II gradu-
ally developed immense proportions,
and on October s, the date OF its great
est brilliancy, it's head was 100000
miles in diameter. Daniers comet may
never rival Donati's. But as II now
appears TO be growing rapidly II prom
ises 10 become in a few days visible
at night to the naked eye.-New York
