THAT MCNAMARA FUND.

COAE Of the minor leaders of organized labor
- and members of the unions are becoming rest
less because OF the fact that there has been no
detailed public statement of the disposition of the
large fund raised for the defense of the Mcnamara
brothers who confessed to the charges OF hav-
ing been engaged in dynamiting.
Shortly after the confession the chief attorney
for the defense made rather indefinite announce
ncnt that there but little of the fund left as
the expenses in connection with the trial had been
greater shan was anticipated. The chief expense
seems TO have been Mr. Darrow'S huge fee.
1t officially stated at one time that the fund
amounted TO 100000 and later statements raised
the figures TO $4,000. Some Californians fami-
lar with the matter think that the amount was
much larger, basing this opinion the fact that
about $4,000 was raised in Sacramento alone.
The chairman of the committee which gathered
in the money in Sacramento has made a public
demand that accounting of the fund be given
in justice to the thousands of workingmen who
contributed to it. He has appealed TO the news
papers to help him.
1t is well that the union men of Sacramento
should try to find out what became of the money
and in their efforts to do so they will have the
sympathy of thousands of union men in all parts
of the country
This action will undoubtedly cause the heads
of the Federation to hurry the matter Of prepar.
ing the statement that would reveal the disposition
of the money.

A CIVIC HOME.

II LOOKS as if considerable interest would be
Il aroused about the industrial DEVELOPMENT Of
Wilmington There is said to be a mild "clash"
between some members OF the Board of Trade
and some of the leading spirits Of the Manufac-
turers' Association. The Journal some time ago
expressed opinion that il would be well for
all to join in the Board of Trade movement.
But the manufacturers formed their own organ
ization, and we do not seriously object
If there is a mild sort of clash or any kind
of friction, that is good sign II is such because
1t shows that more persons are becoming inter-
ested in the industrial development of the city,
There may soon be enough of them to cause fric-
ton for a while, but il won't last long. We are
all going to work together for the advancement
of the city
The Journal has always said that one Of our
troubles was that we could not arouse GUY people
out of their indifference We are willing to see
little rumpus if it will annihilate indifference
because it will set persons to talking about plans
to push Wilmington ahead. q
AS the outcome of all this we should have in
this city an organization Of scrie kind a civic
club civic center which should be able to main
tain headquarters in the new dupont hotel or
to have a building of its own in some central To-
cation, home with a(well-equpped library on
matters pertaining TO municipalities and meeting
alaee for social intercourse and the exchange OF
thought. The Board of Trade might get such
quarters. Some may say that this is a dream. 1t
should not be dream. The expense might be
more than trihing, but there is much wealth in
Wilmington, and if some persons who have ability
and civic patriotism should take hold of the mat
ter such a home as we have in mind could be
easily established and maintained.

BALTIMORE WINS.

IN DELAWARE congratulates Baltimore on the
~ hard and successful fight it made to secure
the Democratic national convention. OF late years
Baltimore has shown many signs of waking up. The
fact that 100000 was secured without very much
trouble TO guarantee that the convention would
be cared for is a tribute TO the energy and enter
prise Of Baltimoreans. National conventions
should not always go to the western cities. The
people of Baltimore worked as a unit TO secure
the convention, and their efforts were handsomely
rewarded.
We trust that Baltimoreans will put the same
kind of energy into furthering the ship canal pro-
ject as they did in securing the convention The
converting of the Chesapeake and Delaware Canal
into a ship canal is now only question of time
IT is sure to come The only question is, When
The ship canal will mean much for both Delaware

CARE oF THE HOMELESS.

ENfRIGID weather brings want and suffering in
Il the great cities. Where wealth is the most
abundant the suffering is the most widespread.
Tales Of misery among the very poor have been
numerous during the last few days. The homeless
in the great cities, like Chicago and New York,
have found shelter after a fashion in the lodging
houses. Some of them have been men merely out
of work; others have been of the usual type of
hobo, but great city other city for that
matter, should permit any homeless persons TO
freeze or starve. Some provision should be made
for the care of these classes during intensely cold
weather. Certainly in a country so rich as ours
there should be no deaths by starvation or deaths
as the result of exposure because of lack of
shelter

MORE TROUBLE
FOR CONDUCTORS
New Pass Regulations Are
biffiCuIt to Understand.
Opinions Differ

Passenger conductors are already
complaining about the new pass regu-
lations. They claim their troubles
have been greatly multiplied. AS is
always the case when a new rule goes
into effect, the parties most concern
ed differ in their opinions as to in
depreciation.
All passes presented must bear the
signature of the users on their re-
verse, upon which. also, are printed
forms of contract showing that the
persons using them are entitled by
law to free transportation.
For example, a pass issued to John
Doe and wife requires the signature
Of the former only; but one issued
to John Doe, his wife, his son VIII
liam and his daughter Mary requires
the signatures of the two last men
toned all of which is confusing to
train conductors, who are supplied,
also, with identification slips, upon
which they are required TO note the
name. or names, Of the person or
persons presenting a pass, the pass
number, between what stations II Is
used and whether the person or per-
sons using it be travelling for pleas
ure or on business for the company,
to which he must add the number
Of miles travelled.
These specific requirements are
with respect to free term and annual
transportation to employees of a rail-
road, and, some local employees pro-
fess, while admitting that they are
imposed by the commissions rules, to
see in them some ulterior motive.
Employees who have been abusing the
pass privileges that have been accord
ed them voluntarily by their COM
panies now will be known.
The new regulations will work par
ticular hardship upon representa-
tives Of foreign lines, whether freight
or passenger traffic men, who desire
to travel outside their territory. Here
tofore it has only been necessary for
them to apply to the local representa-
tive Of the company whose line they
desired to use, who procured the
transportation asked for from head
quarters direct. Now all acquisitions
for passes must be made through the
authorized representative of the COM
pany whose representative desires it
in consequence of which many an
extra-territorial trip that would b'
undertaken otherwise without appris
ing headquarters will be foregon'
| hereafter and many a foreign lines
man is unhappy in the prospect.
The new rule, radical departure al
it is from every tradition and prac
tice of American railroads, is bount
to make confusion for a time, botl
for the roads themselves and thei
beneficiaries, but Pennsylvania ant
Reading traffic officials concurred il
expressing the opinion that eventu
ally it would inure to the benefit o

FIRE DEPARTMENT EFFICIENCY.

TT is rather a singular coincidence that soon
Il after Fire Commissioner Johnson reported to
Mayor Gaynor that the number of fires during the
last six months of 1911 had greatly decreased, the
frghtful destruction of the Equitable Building en-
failing very heavy loss occurred in New York.
The fire chief attributed the improvement to
the better inspection of hazardous premises by
uniformed iremen as a forerunner of a fire pre-
vention bureau and TO the improved discipline
of the fremen.
Even with the improvements noted, in one year
New York had 300 fires for every 100000 of in
habitants against 81 in London and IA in Paris.
The destruction of the Equitable Building shows
that New York has great deal to learn in fire
prevention, for the efficiency of its department,
despite the great herosm manifested by tie men
on all occasions when put to the test, is far below
that of the big cities of the old world
