Maps Are Sensation.

Ban Johnson's organization furnished
the baseball sensation OF the week in
the fine showing Of the youthful Bir-
mngham's team from Cleveland. Through
seven game string OF victories, Cleve-
land made a thirty-seven point leap to-
ward the pcnnant, inasmuch as the Ath-
letics did little more than hold their
own.
The only bright spot in the showing
OF the Athletics was the pitching OF
Carl Brown. Mack's youngster who has
made a record this year that has sur
passed those Of the veterans. Plank, Ben
der and Coombs.
The playing of the Washingtonians last
week put damper on the hopes of
their adheyentS.
After Cleveland and Philadelphia the
best work in the American league was
done by Detroit and ST. Louis. putting
Now York further into The collar.

Yon gotta hand it 10 your Uncle Cy-
rus In the six innings Morgan pitched
after the round that was wished on
him. only twenty batsmen turned their
bronzed couutenances his way
Williams was not at his best and the
Salt Lake lads touched him for twelve
hits. Strange 10 say, every one of that
doZer was a single.
The feature Of the day in the batting
line was ELAINE Delhi S fence ball.
In the third, when there were two on,
the big pitcher, who had taken Faye g
place in left when the latter relieved
Hester al first, leaned on one square
in the groove for a beautiful homer
over the left center fence. Then
"stony" McGlynn, who started the
game, gave IL up as a bad job and Nor
gan went in. The visitors got no more
runs after Delhi's four-bagger, Hester
retired after the first inning on ac-
count OF a very lame ankle, when the
changes in the visitors lineup previ-
ously noted were made.

Spencer's Startling Grab.

Talk about the best catches of the
season. the one that Spencer pulled
yesterday was without question the
most sensational OF them ALL In the
fourth Siner drove one directly at the
center field fence, with Spencer after
it, The fielder stuck UP his bare right
and speared the ball. II was sure some
grab.
Galena made pretty catch in the
same inning of Davis's Hy TO center.
Galena is charged with an error in the
game. the result of dropping a fly in
the first inning when he and Fave col
lided.
Dresser also distinguished himself in
the second when he leaped high for
Weaver line drive and brought it
down safeiv.

Slavery in the Philippines.

Commissioner Worcester has been
making reports to the insular division
of the War Department recently regard
ing peonage and slavery in the Philip
pines that should be carefully studied by
the new governor general of the islands
either before his departure for his new
post or upon arrival there. A thoughtful
perusal of these statements. officially
made by one who has acquired most
thorough acquaintance with Philippine
conditions. is likely to modify any views
he may now entertain as to the readiness
of the F'ilipnOs for full self-government
1t would seem plain that SO far as native
administration and law-making have
progressed they have led directly to the
establishment and maintenance of most
shameful system of bodily ownership
The great evil of this situation is that
public sentiment in the islands appears
to justify the conditions which Commits
sioner Worcester sets forth I'm his re-
ports The Filipinos are, in short. still
far removed from that stage of civiiza-
ton which recognizes evil i'm the owner
ship of human beings.
With this situation so forcibly set forth
in Commissioner Worcester's reports.
before us it is impossible to conclude that
the islanders can be intrusted with the
exclusive management of their own
affairs. If the United States were to
relinQuish it's authority, withdrawing in
favor of an all-native government. the
result would probably be the speedy es-
Enlistment of slavery throughout the
islands. For this condition the United
States would be responsible before the
world 1t is faced now with the duty to
eradicate this slavery as far as it can.
Commissioners Worcester points out the
difficulties in the way, showing that pub
lie sentiment favors peonage and indi-
eating the hard task involved In over
coming the native tendency to regard
human beings as chattels. Yet, despite
this difficulty the United States must
continue to work to the end of suppress
ing slavery in the islands. however long
the process may be, and until it succeeds
in creating a moral sentiment among the
F'flipinos hostile to this system of traffic
in human beings it cannot regard it's
work there as completed. whatever may
be the advances of the island people in
other directions. Gov. Gen. Harrison's
observations on the subject will be par
ticularly interesting i'm view of his pre-
announced declaration in favor of Fill
Pine independence.

Bells and Horses.

Washington awaits with interest the re-
suits of an investigation which the sec
rotary of the Humane Society is about to
make into the effect upon the nervous
system of the horse of bells carried upon
the harness. Some fair champion Of
'.man's best friend has raised this ques-
ton I'm pteous appeal to that official
TO prosecute the owners of animals who
persist in attracting attention to their
outfits by bells ''jangling out of tune"
Doubtless the secretary of the Humane
society has means of ascertaining the in
1uence of Naturalization upon the equine
nervous system. Perhaps he has inside
information" Maybe long association
with the subject of the physical econo-
my of the horse will insure trust
worthy decision. But meanwhile the at
tention of the chief of police is respect
fully directed to the fact that without
any question the use of bells on har-
nesses is unpleasant to human ears. He
will have probably less difficulty in
reaching conclusion on this point than
the secretary of the Humane Society will
encounter i'm his research One might
have wished that the sympathetic lady
who has been so keenly distressed on
he score of the suffering of supersensi-
tive horses from tinkling bells had
thought first of the effect of this need
.ess noise upon men and women. and re-
ferred her complaint to the official who
s by law charged with the duty of pro-
secting the community from unnecessary
sounds.

and there is an interesting suggestion of
shrewd oriental diplomacy in the PROPOSE
ton which, emanated from Toxic to Lon
don that IL England did not wish 20 join
with Japan on the latters terms an alli-
ance with Russia might be effected. Thus
Japan was able. by advancing the sugges-
ton of a Russo combi-
nation, to bring England to Its own
terms. 1t did not wish to play Englands
game in Europe by including Germany in
a combination that was, from the British
point of view. chiefly designed as means
of checkmating the Franco-Russian en-
tente. No one can at present determine
how far it was the British purpose in
this matter to win Germany, not merely
as tripartite associate in far eastern
affairs. but as a coadjutor in European
politics. That Germany. in seeking adj
mittance to the Anglo Japanese alliance.
was actuated by a desire to participate
in Asatc affairs is indicated by the
course of subsequent events. The seizure
of the Shantung peninsula by Germany
following the Russian grab of the Lao
tnng peninsula distinctly revealed the
German ambition to become equal
participator in the European dominance
over eastern Asia. Subsequently there
will possibly be fun illumination of this
matter as the private papers Of states
men and hitherto suppressed official cor
respondence come to light. Meanwhile,
ii is interesting to speculate upon the
possibility that Germany. thwarted in its
plan To enter the Anglo Japanese com
bination, might have turned to- the Russo
French alliance as a means of securing
international support i'm its obvious prof
Get to become factor in the far east.
