SOLDIER KING MAKES =.
POOR SHOWING IN RACE

Following the second baseball game
at Athletic park yesterday afternoon,
there was mile foot race between
Jim Meek, the elongated heel7and-toe
champion Of the islands, and Soldier
King, who has figured in many
self-propelled event, from sprint to
a marathon. Meek won, King never
challenging the lead which his opDen-
ent assumed on the first lap. In fact,
the contest became pursuit race be-
fore the first quarter had been trav-
eled - -. ...'-.-.
The winners time was 4.53 As,
which was very good, considering the
track, and going on the assumption
that the course was accurately meas
ured However, King must be placed
in the discard on these figures, be,
cause on January II, 1912. he broke
the island record for a mile by stem
ping the distance in AS IL, while his
time yesterday was fully seconds
slower than the winners.

OF the other powers named. 30 TAR as
the dispatches have indicated. Germany
has made no such representation at
Constantinople, while Austria has filed
a protest, but in somewhat different
terms from those employed by the
other European powers.
Naturally, such protests to be effect
i've must carry with them the sugges-
ton that force will be used in case
Turkey insists upon her action. But
in the present situation it Is doubtful
whether force can be applied for the
coercion of Turkey Immediately. It is
recognized as desirable that Turkey
keep out OF the European campaign,
for her entrance would seriously en-
large the war zone and perhaps raise
religious warfare of grave possi-
bilities for the destruction Of organized
governments in certain parts of the
world. 1t is evidently not true. as sug-
gested in Berlin. that the anti-Teutonic
allies have intrigued at Constantinople
to procure Turkish neutrality with the
abrogation of the capitulations as COM
pensation. Certainly the United States
can be no party to such an act, and it
must regard the protests of Great
Britain, France, Russia and Italy. and
also that Of Austria, as in good faith
and assume that it is their intention
when conditions permit to make them
good in case Turkey persists in her
present avowed intention. 1t cannot
act alone in such direction without
possibly involving itself in the Euro
pean war. toward which it has deter
mined to remain strictly neutral

The War Tax Bill.

The democratic program on the war tax.
as outlined at the House caucus Tues
day night, involves another shift from
the tentative plan heretofore formed
through the abandonment Of the pro-
posed tax on fire. ght bills and the adop-
ton Of various other forms Of emer-
yency assessment. AS now proposed,
tho bill will. according to estimates. raise
s32. 500 900 through an additional tax on
beer. 100000 through further taxes
on domestic wines. 100000 by an in
crease of the license taxes on tobacco
manufacturers and dealers. $4,000, 900
on gasoline, $5,so0,0o0 by a special tax
on bankers and brokers and s35. oo0. 900
by a stamp tax affecting bonds. stocks.

an increased revenue OF about $685.
100000.
According to this schedule Of taxation
roughly $44.500.000 will be raised by
additional assessments on luxuries such
as LIQUORS and tobacco. The gasoline tax
may in a sense be regarded as an as
sessment Of . luxury. inasmuch as q
large percentage Of the gasoline used
in this country 10 for the propulsion Of
pleasure motors. But to considerable
extent this is a tax on business, mas
much as gasoline is now used largely
in goods deliveries and other Industrial
activities. It would perhaps be a fair
estimate to say that over half Of the
proposed new revenue will come from
Injuries, the balance coming from bust
ness and trade.

Sir Lionel Garden Again.

Sir Lionel Garden, late ambassador
from Great Britain to Mexico and now
about to assume the same post at RIO
Janeiro, has been quoted as expressing
himself in the freest terms of condem-
nation regarding the withdrawal or
American troops from Vera Cruz ana
the prospective inability of the Car
rama government to maintain order
and guarantee protection to foreigners
IN Mexico. 1t is possible, of course,
that Sir Lionel has been misquoted.
But unfortunately this expression IS
not contrary to certain precedents IN
the course of his career in Mexico. He
is evidently given to impulsive utter
ance, and 1t is known that he has little
liking for and faith in the constitu-
tionalist party now dominant in Mex
leo. He was an avowed believer In
the Huerta administration and figured
conspicuously at one time in an episode
which rather seriously disturbed Eng
lish and American relations. In the
present conditions, however, this state
ment by the erstwhile British ambas-
sador at Mexico City Is not properly
a subject of official cognizance here,
inasfuch ass the United States has no
sort of relations with Sir Lionel Car
den. It would seem to caIl for very
keen attention at London. where the
matter of diplomatic discretion is GER
tAtnly one of grave Importance. The
criticism by British diplomat in tran
sit from one post to another respecting
nction by this country in the land of
his former position can be embarrass-
ing only to his own government, which
doubtless at this particular juncture
has no desire to give offense to the
United States to any degree or in any
manner. The withdrawal of American
troops from Vera Cruz is matter
solely concerning this country and
Mexico, for the United States does not
at the present state of the Mexican
situation regard itself as obligated to
maintain a policing force for moral
effect upon the shores of the republic
against the possibility of disorders
affecting the lives and properties OF
foreigners.

War News VS.. Domestic.
ew York Evening Post.

From the New York Evening Post.
One Of the extraordinary enects or the
European war is that 1t has, from q
Journalistic point Of view. detached
New York city from the rest Of the
United States. In other words. the enor.
nous cost Of furnishing the detailed
and the lack of space for other things.
have compelled the newspapers practi-
cally to cut off all domestic news. save
such as relates to elections. Even this
has been boiled down. But we have
learned Of the defeat Of Blease. the VIC
tory of Roger Sull van in Illinois. and
the outcome in Maine yesterday. Who
knows, however, what is happening in
California or Idaho or even down south,
where the dismay and suffering because
Of the inability to market the cotton
crop are so great? From Washington, of
course, we still get news-does it not
bear largely on the war?

The Presidents Answers.

The Presidents reply to Emperor
Williams message regarding the use
of dumdum bullets by the French Is
virtually identical in terms with MS
answer to the Belgian commission
which yesterday laid before him pro-
test respecting atrocities chafseu
against the Germans. Mr.. wilson oe-
clines to form Judgment upon THESE
allegations and takes occasion to eS-
press the fervent hope that the war
in Europe will soon cease and that
then will come the day OF account
ing, when these and other questions
will be passed upon and the reiaelVe
responsibility involved will be assessed.
In other words, the President reiers
both the kaiser and the Belgian COM
missioners to the ultimate peace trlpu-
nal which alone can pass upon THESE
conflicting claims that in the prose-
cution of the war the laws OF hu-
manity have been violated
In the larger aspect practically every
act of destruction, every taking OF
human life, every appropriation OF
private property incidental to TINS
war is grievous wrong against
civilization. But nations have, In
recognition of the apparent inev1taph-
ity of warfare. undertaken to proscrioe
particular barbarities such as the use
Of bullets that almost invariably KILL
the wanton, needless burning OF cities,
the SLAUGHTER of non-combata the
killing of prisoners and the poisoning
of wells In practically every war
since this plane of international agree
uoent was reached charges have been
advanced that all of these onenses
have been committed, and in every
peace adjustment following war such
charges have been taken into account
in the fixing of indemnities assessed
against the conquered.
There is no opportunity while war Is
In progress to consider such matters,
for 1t is impossible to obtain trust
worthy testimony. Mere allegations,
based upon tales of excited fugitlves
or the indignant representations of
battle blinded partisans. do not con-
stitute the basis for decision by even
a strictly neutral power. In any case.,
moreover, it is not the function of such
q power, while war is in progress, to
undertake investigation which is OBJ
yiously impracticable of definitive re-
suits.
Plainly the purpose of both the Ger
man and Belgian representations to
this country respecting these alleged
violations of the rules of warfare has
been to lay the foundation for later
claims. These representations have
been made at Washington because this
country is recognized by all the bellfg-
erents as the greatest of the neutrafs,
for whose good will all the partici-
pants in this war are striving ana
whose good Offices have already been
rendered as a possible mediator to end
the strife. Both the Belgian and Ger
man charges have been directed also
to the attention of the American peo-
pie for the sake If possible of arousing
sentiment here.

The New York Senatorship.

1t looks now as If the voters of New
York will be called upon in November
to choose between Ambassador Gerard
and James w. wadsworth, jr., for Mr.
Roots seat in the Senate. They are ex-
cellent men. They have had experience
In public affairs. Mr.. Gerard as an &C.
cupant of the bench and as diplomat,
and Mr.. Wadsworth as a state legis-
lator.
Both are party men in good party
standing. Mr.. Gerard is popular in
Tammany circles. and is in Berlin by
favor Of the President. Some of the
democratic reformers do not like him,
but present no strong case against
him.
Mr.. Wadsworth has a great many
friends, as the result Of an eminent
name worthily worn. and abilities dem
onstrated in Office. He is a fine example
OF that young America in circum-
stances to lead a life of leisure and
pleasure, but choosing the nobler
course and living a life of industry
and usefulness. He took to politics"
naturally-it was in the blood-and at
an early age made a success of his
activities. If he reaches the Senate
he will be among the youngest mem
bers of the body.
II Mr.. Gerard is elected, New York
city will be the home of both senator's.
That Is true now; but Mr.. Root and
Mr.. O'Gorman are opposed politically.
AS worthy. however, as both these
senatorial aspirants are, regret must
be felt at the loss OF Mr.. Root from
the Senate at a time when such talents
and experience as he possesses are so
valuable to the country. He stands
among the foremost men Of the day,
as lawyer, legislator and diplomat: and
in the immediate future constitutional
questions calling for large legal knowl-
edge, economic questions calling for
large Legislative experience and diplo-
matte questions. calling for a trained
touch in conducting negotiations, will
be pressing. His reelection would have
assured the country services not easily
matched for work never exceeded in
Importance in our affairs on the lines
indicated.
But while retiring from the Senate,
Mr.. Root may not be retiring from all
political employment. What likelier
than that II the republicans return to
power he may return to the State
Department? Larger. and very large,
relations with Central and South
America are to be established: and
what American statesman understands
the people of those sections better, or
has their admiration and confidence in
greater degree, than Mr.. Root? His
visit to them was an ovation, and
his addresses excellent and illuminat-
ing In every way.

A Recollection.

When the days keep getting shorter
and the work piles up so high
Before the chap who faces it with dim
and weary eye
You'll sometimes see him ponder, with
face that's all aglow.
On that great two weeks vacation that
he had not long ago.
He sees himself in fancy as amid the
merry throng
He tangoed on the beach where ocean
waves were dashing strong.
He sees himself with jaunty stride pa
rading down the walk
In clothes which, If trifle loud, were
quite the latest talk.
Now his Office coat is shiny and his
collars wilted quite,
And his tousled hair is frying meath
the fierce electric light.
And yet from time to time he braces
up with style complete
AS that little old two weeks looms up
a memory fond and sweet.

The Regeneration of England.
From the New York Sun.

England presents at the present mo-
ment a striking spectacle of national
regeneration. Until two months ago
she seemed to be plunged into tor
por from which it appeared impossible
to awaken her. Her wars in the Sudan
and in South Africa, the imminent
menace of armed rebellion in Ire
land and the exasperating outrages
of the militant suffragettes were pow
erless to arouse her from her Sleep
ing sickness. The remainder of the
world either gloated or mourned over
her decadence. But since the beginning
of August there has been marvellous
change. Englishmen have shown since
they threw down the gauntlet to Ger
the talk concerning the moral and
physical deterioration Of their race is
without foundation, and that they re-
main true to the original stock from
which so many Of US on this side OF
the Atlantic are proud to trace our
descent.
