Thirteen at One Crossing.

Down on Long Island. not far from
Brooklyn. in a we'll settled neighborhood,
Is a railroad grade crossing used by
many trains and heavy general traffic
1t Is protected" by gates, the operator
OF which Is under orders to lower the
barriers when he is notified by electric
bell by tho watchmen at the stations at
either side Of him that a train Is ap-
preaching. This system Is regarded by
the railroad company as a sufiicient pro-
lection to the public Nevertheless,
eleven persons have been killed In the
past two years at this place. The other day
two more were added to the list when a
train struck two automobiles which were
endeavoring to cross at tho same time
The gates were up and In fact were never
lowered. -Four machines started at the
same time to cross the tracks. The first
one by speeding got over In safety when
the train was seen approaching. The
second and third were hit and demoi-
ished. two occupants being killed and
four badly hurt. while the fourth machine
was stopped just in time to prevent dis
aster The Waterman contends that he
received no bell warning OF the approach
OF the train. The watchmsn down the
track in the direction from which the
train approached declares that he gave
the warnAs. Whoever is right. there Is

Great Work Against the Flies.

The results of the fly-killing crusade up
to date are more than gratifying. With
over two thousand boys and girls en-
tered in the contest for The Stars TWEEN
ty-seven prizes, the flies are falling by
the hundreds Of thousands and there Is an
excellent prospect that the fortnight will
close with the pest practically eliminated.
The young. contestants are going after
the insects In the places Of greatest dam
ger TO the public health, in the stores
and markets. In the eating establishments
and the kitchens, at the stables and all
the places where flies breed and cluster.
They are apparently pooling their en-
ergtes and working in combinations, by
which means large scores entered In the
names Of individuals are possible. It
makes no difference whatever to The
Star Or the health Office who kills the
flies. What Is asked is that every pos.
sible fly be delivered dead to the author
tiles for recording and crediting in some
name. II the present pace is maintained
during the rest Of the period Washington
will indeed be hyless city.

Work on the Maine.

Details Of further operations in Havana
harbor in the salvage of the Names
wreck are at hand TO weaken the con-
clusion that seems to have been reached
recently In some quarters that the ves-
Sci was destroyed primarily by an inte-
FLOR explosion. There has never been
any question Of the fact that the Maine
was the victim of the explosion of Its
magazines, but there has been q fixed be-
lief on the part OF the American people
ever since the naval court of inquiry
made its report that the magazines
themselves were detonated by an expio-
sion on the outside of the vessel. Ger
tain physical evidences found in 1SyS
pointed plainly to the fact that a blow
had been delivered on the outer hull. 1t
followed from clear reasoning that this
must have taken place before the maya
zines let 90. A short time ago the re-
port circulated that Gen. Bixbee, In
charge of the operation at Havana. held
TIE view that the wreck showed no signs
vi an exterior explosion. Gen. Bixbee
has since pointed out the inaccuracy of
this statement which II would in any
circumstances have been improper for
him TO make, considering his RESPONSE
bility and the incompleteness of the
work now in hand. The latest report
states that the water has now been
brought to a level TO yield evidence that
parts of the structure of the ships dou-
bic bottom lie forty feet above their nor
NAL position, apparently giving confirma.
ton TO the theory that the vessel was
destroyed by some form OF external ex-
plos!on. It is wise TO Withhold conclu-
sions, however, for the wreckage lies in
such a state that not until IT Is complete
~ exposed TO view and scientific analysis
can any trustworthy deductions be
drawn.

The Menace in Morocco.
From the New York Tribune

From the New York Tribune.
The outlook in Morocco has undisguis-
eddy grown more menacing and disQuiet-
Ing in the last few days: since. let us
say, the noteworthy speech by the Brit
ish chancellor of the exchequer. which,
rightly or wrongly. was generally re-
garded as warning to Germany and an
announcement to France to stand firm
In her resistance to Germany's policy at
Agadir. The intimation that Mr. Lloyd
George made that speech at that time
more for effect at Westminster. upon the
conflict with the lords. than for serious
influence in European politics may prob
ably be dismissed as unfounded and I'M
worthy. His speech had the appearance
Of good faith, and certainly has been
generally accepted at its face value. The
primary question concerns the right of
Germany to accomplish a permanent or
indefinitely protracted military occupation
Of Agadir. The treaty OF Algeciras guar
antees the sovereignty and independence
OF the Sultan Of Morocco and the tnteg-
rity Of his empire, and also the open
door and equality of commercial oppor-
tunity to all nations: and Germany I'm
her compact with France in 1909 de-
clared that she was pursuing only eco
nomic interests in Morocco.

no escaping the fact that these people
were slaughtered by a railroad corpora
ton that in the face Of many deaths per-
sists In maintaining this and other grade
crossings. Dependence upon watchmen
and electric bells has been demonstrated
time and again to be futile. How many
more must be killed at this point before
the grade crossing is eliminated? Do the
railroad corporations find 1t cheaper to
pay for lives destroyed and property
ruined than to raise or depress their
tracks7 II is quite time that state legis-
latures should take hand In the matter
by denying the right Of the railroads to
decide this question for themselves.
