issue, and il Is not impossible that this
country and Mexico may decide to CO
operate in some manner to restore peace
and tranquil conditions OF course. the
position of Mexico is somewhat hampered
from the fact that it has recognized the

LIBERIA AND THE POWERS. = The
American Ambassador TO Great Britain
has advised the Department of State that
considerable anxiety exists in London over
conditions in Liberia, but Mr.. Reid adds
that he learns the negotiations of an
American firm of bankers presumably
Kuhn. Loeb & Coz with British, German
and French bankers looking 10 a loan Of
$1,000. 00e with which TO refund the La
berian debt are proceeding favorably. 1t
is further learned that the Liberian gov
eminent will probably default in payment
of debt held by British subjects, which
accounts for the anxiety of Great Britain
TO have the affairs of the republic straight
ened out. Although the Department of
State is non-comnittaI on the subject, there
is q growing belief that some form of
agreement viii be reached
whereby the bankers who refund the
Liberian debt will be protected, possibly
by the collection OF the customs by re-
ceiver appointed under international au-
spices This arrangement would be similar
to the service the United States is
performing for Santo Domingo except that
in the case Of Liberia probably Great
Britain Germany and France would super
wise the collection of customs and the
segregation of the sinking fund.

POLICE AND THIEVES.

A most remarkable news Item APP
peared few days ago in New York
papers. II is TO the effect that when Mr..
Roosevelt was expected in Now York,
the police rounded up" several hum
dred OF the professional thieves in the
city, and locked them up. No charge
was preferred against them save that
they we're known to be thieves, and
the arrests were made after consulta-
ton with the magistrates, who held
the prisoners for "safe-keeping.
From this Interesting item many
things may be Inferred concerning
New York There are professional
thieves in that city; they are known
TO the police; and yet they are at
large, except on special occasions;
they can be rounded up" and kept In
Jail without any charge, because they
are perfectly willing 10 accommodate
the police. the relations between them
and the police are entirely cordial. All
this must be inferred from the
curious news item. The question ma
turally arises. why. in the name OF
the law, does not the police keep them
locked up all the time instead of
suffering them 70 be at large to
steal2 II they are known 10 be crooks.
why are they permitted TO live on the
community unmolested? Do the
professional thieves pay tribute to the
police, for protection II not, how are
they known and why are they not ar
rested?
1t Is probably but too true that in
many cities thieves and crooks d.
vide with the guardians OF tho law.
and therefore get scot free In some
instances they are merely sent out Of
the city, when the citizens demand
their punishment and thus they
escape, 20 begin anew In another
place Many OF our police departments
are both fearfully and wonderfully
made.
