REHEARING GRANTED
IN 4 MARITIME LIBEL

In the maritime libel of Pope & Tai
yesterday handed down decision
granting a rehearing on the second
amended libel. The case grew out of
the stranding of the schooner Mary E.
Foster twice, frt on one side OF the
channel and thena on tire other, grow.
ing out of the alleged negi, gent ham
ding of her by the Fearless. The
point in question is thus stated by
Judge Dole in his decision:
If the second stranding was newt
able on account of conditions result
ing from the position of the first
stranding, then the claimant would, on
account of his negligence through
which such stranding took place, be re-
sponsible and liable, but if, after the
first stranding and after the Fearless
attempted to take the vessel back into
the harbor stern first, the situation be.
ing such that that could be done with
proper care, and the second stranding
resulted as alleged from the negligence
of the claimant, then the claimant is
liable for the second stranding on ae
count of the negligence which proxi-
mately led to it and not because Of the
negligence which led to the first
stranding, the claimants attempt to
tow the schooner into the harbor after
the first stranding being such an inter
ference with the natural course of
things resulting from the first strand
ing that the question of the .conse-
quences of the first negligence is too
vague and too remote for the court to
consider.
"Under these considerations the de-
cision upon the fourth exception to the
second amended libel is modified and
the same is overruled as to both
standings. Motion for rehearing is
allowed -

DECLARED HIS INTENTION.

Henry J. Beerman Jr., who applied
for naturalization under the Organic
Act as kamaaina without previous
declaration of intention, was in the
United States District Court yesterday
morning. His application was made
at about the same time as that of
George Rodiek 1t has been continued
from time to time to await the deci-
sion in the Rodiek case. Judge Dole
yesterday refused to grant naturallza-
ton, holding himself bound by the de-
cision of the Circuit Court of Appeals
in the Rodiek case. He advised Mr..
Beerman to make declaration of inten.
ton and then await the two years.
This Mr. Beerman did, making his de
claration before Clerk Murphy.

AN ILLEGAL LUNCH WAGON.

Massachusetts, always toned, is becoming in some ways what will seem to many there as pesky particu- lar The full bench of the Supreme court of the State has just decided that the lunch wagon has no proper place in city streets To settle the matter, test case. was made in Bos- ton. regarding the lunch \ \agon which has stood at night in Adams square. The proprietor of the wagon sought to defend his business on the strength of permits granted to him by the al- dermen, the street department and tl.e board of health The court decided that the defendants acts did not be- long to the class of purposes for which the public ways are intended, and held that he %as liable for prosecution for obstructing the street.
 The lunch wagon in Massachusetts. as in other places, has done good ser vice. It has been claimed for it that 1t was. to certain extent, a com petitor of the saloon, and a promoter of temperance Be this as it may. 1t has certainly been convenience to many who have had five cents or more to spend in eating

A SHORT SESSION.

They are talking a short session of congress, just as they talk a short session of the Connecticut legislature But the talk about the short session of congress seems to mean business Speaker Cannon has notified the chair men of appropriation committees to have their bills ready to report by April IS, and there are other indica- tions that congress means to adjourn before it does much harm to the coun- try. or to the political campaigns that arc in progress and will be much more in progress as the year grows older.
 It is more and more evident that whatever congress does or does not do at this session it will not pass a money measure that will be anywhere near adequate As things are it would do better not to pass any. The country is crawling out of the recent "emer- gency," and is not likely to get into another this year. So if the money situation were let alone until it could be dealt with adequately it would be wise. And if it cannot be dealt with adequately it might te dealt with more adequately than it would be by the  passage of the Aldrich bill, which is now threatened.

it's prison plant at Saltwater ana to erect new institution in the southern part of the same town. The site mas already been selected, and the prison officials and an architect have tnis month been making a tour Of the East to get points with reference to the architectural details of the new penal outfit. Illinois is planning te change the location of its northern State prison. The institution is now situated in the city of Joliet, and the constant output of smoke from the adjacent works of the Illinois steci Company is offensive And the United States government, which at a com paratively recent date completed the new prison at Atlanta, is slowly con structing big penitentiary at Fort Leavenworth
 Of course all these improvements ought not to and perhaps will not breed an extensive desire to go to prison, but there are some who will be glad that they are going to have better place to stay in than they ex- pected By the way, Connecticut might have, and probably will sometime have, better State prison than she has.

AN ARMY cHApLArx,s COMPLAINT.

At recent session of the Women's Army and Navy League in Washing ton 1t came out that communication had been sent to the President con- veying message from an army chaplain on his deathbed in the form of an appeal for the exercise of mili- tary authority which would discour- age, if it did not prevent, the employ ment of profanity on the part of army officers in their attitude toward en- listed men. It appears that this mes sage related that this use of too viz orous language is having a detrimental effect upon the sentiment of the en- listed force, the members of which were rendered discontented with their lot on account of this form of abuse
 It used to be sung that "The express sion If you please, particularly gen. tlemanly tone implants," but in giving orders in the United States army it is not much used. But 1t Is not the gen. eral impression that profanity is as much used in giving orders as the
 dying chaplain implied. If 1t is, it ought to be stopped, certainly in times of peace. Perhaps war wouldn't be really war without "hell-roaring" officers.

ECONOMY.

Economy is the soul of wealth and also the mother of many virtues. We have just had an illustration of what extravaganza is, and the country doesn't care for another one soon So It will commend Congressman Tawney for calling attention to the need of economy which is pressing on our rich and generous government. His sug- gestion that if the present programme of expenditure is carried out by con- gress 1t will cause deficit of s1o0,- 900, 900 or $150, 900, 900 is calculated to make the judicious pause. These fig ures include no new authoriza tions of public works, river and harbor im- provements, public buildings and the ike One fourth of the total appro- priations for the year will be for mil- tary and naval expenditures, these two items alone exceeding the total national expenditures of any year prior to 1890. And no provision has been made for the extension of the naval programme which has been sug- gested. Nor does the present appro- priation provide for any increase in army expenditures To comprehend the full scope of the administration programme there must be added the cost of battleship construction, water way development, national forest ex- tension, military increase and coast de- fence, including insular Notifications
 Of course we can issue bonds and sell them. Almost everybody is doing that or getting ready to do it But John W. Gates idea of wearing old clothes for awhile seems to be sounder than the new bond notion.

THE USE OF wooLsEy HALL.

The position taken by the authori- ties of Yale University in forbidding the use of Woolsey Hall for political purposes, even though the beneficiary of the proposed purpose is distin- guished Yale graduate and member of the corporation, is sound position
 The use of that building for political purposes would surely bring the uni versity into hot disrepute, for unless 1t is to throw its doors open to all seekers after the political fleece, which would be bad judgment, they must remain closed to Its own sons

law of the land that will continue to regulate the relationship of employer and employe. That will be more and more dictated by mutual interests So far as the human eye can see and the human mind can penetrate organized labor has come to stay, if for no other reason than for the one that it offers the only practical opportunity given labor to meet organized capital on common ground Corporations are not ali of a sudden going to discharge members of organized labor because the Supreme court has found the law forbidding such conduct to bf uncon- stitutional. They are gong to % right on conducting their business opera tions with a due consideration for the rights of the money and labor invest ed, and they will continue to find that fighting labor organizations because they are labor organizations is a los ing undertaking. There is so much that is good in them that the inf1u-
 ence of all intelligent people is being
 constantly used to make them even
 greater aids ir the working out of the
 industrial problems. For that reason
 the courts finding is more interesting
 than important.

Japanese Competition in China.

tNew York Journal of Commerce
 Japanese competition in the far East, of which so much has recently been said. derives of course it's chief danger from the alertnessA with which the Japanese merchant and hls govern ment are able in combination to neu- tralize these violent fluctuations in Chinese exchange, and. thus to place Japanese trade with China on a more favorable basis than that which the trade of any other nation can at pres ent hope to occupy. But all this Jap anese resourcefulness must tend, in time to bring about reform of the conditions of whose existence it is now able to take advantage In other words. every gain made by Japan at the ex- pense of her commercial rivals must re. suit in quickening their apprehension of the changes which are urgently needed in China to insure real equality of commercial opportunity.

The Political Programme.

Soon the delegates will gather from the
 North, East. South and West; They will pass with flying colors and
 with many swelling chest; There will be great commotion which
 will spread through all the land Every moment will be noisy through
 the footing of some band; And they'll haggle over platforms and s6s pretend 10 be concerned, Just as If they thought he. people
 never saw and never learned. They will saw the air and thunder they
 will tear their hair and roar, And go through the same old motions
 they have gone through hereto There, will be the all-browed states
 men ripping eloquence to shreds. As they tread the platform waving
 dear Old Glory round their
 heads.
 And the policies" and doctrines that
 dead ranters whooped about Will be furbished up and dusted and
 sereneiy trotted out. .F t They will point with pride and also
 they wlll view with much alarm, They will promise all that's lovely to
 the man upon the farm; They will scold the trusts and railroads
 and denounce the Standard oil. All the platitudes that ever have been
 passed around by men Will be hunted up and polished and
 be made to serve again. They'll indulge in much palaver and
 exhibit great distress
 Over blanks they have so fashioned as
 to make them meaningless; There will be the same old keynote
 and the same old clarion call" And the same old words of warning
 that they don't believe at all: : They will build their platforms. using
 plans their fathers used before And the people. being foolish, will have
 faith in them once more.

SENSIBLE AND EFFECTIVE.

Love will find way. The other day German girl In New Jersey found herself in tight place. She was so besieged by two lovers that she felt obliged to choose between them or make them choose between themselves She was too sensible to elope with one and in that way give the other one mild hint that she didn't love him quite enough. She wasn't bloodthirsty enough to con- mand them to fight a duel for her dear sake But she was ingenious enough to settle the momentous ques- ton without a row and with more stomach-ache than heart-ache. She promised her fair and much- desired hand to the one who could eat the most frankfurters, Both ate and ate and ate until one was so sick he couldn't eat more, and the one who could didn't want to. The wedding fol- lowed soon, and the one who was squelched by the sausage was the best man there, though he had been the poorest man in the preliminaries
 This way of tenderly dealing with importunate love has it's merits. All concerned in the affair are alive and we'll and if all are not quite happy two of them are.
