The Pittsburgh Fire Horror.

The other day a FIRE destroyed a
paper box factory in Pittsburgh, in
which thirteen persons lost their
lives, twelve being girl employees. The
building. it appears, was a notorious
FIRE trap, having been reported last
June to the city officials as unfit for
the uses to which it was being put,
while an inspector for the FIRE depart
snent had several months before re-
ported that there were insufficient
means of exit. The news dispatches
state that Officials complained that
inadequate building laws and insult
fcient powers handicapped them in
preventing catastrophes of this kind"
If Pittsburgh has bad laws which
prevent the stoppage of building uses
in the face of plain danger to human
life, or if the municipal administra-
ton is, whatever the laws. incapable
of enforcing them. that city has a
heavy responsibility In this case.
Probably every city is at. this time
taking chances in the matter of fires
in places that, in the judgment of ex-

Why F4 Was Lost.

The report of the board of inquiry
into the disaster of the submarine F-4
at Honolulu is an instructive illustra-
ton of the delicacy Of these undersea
craft. which are playing such large
part in the present war. 1t Is de-
cided by the board that corroded
rivet caused the tragedy. This rivet
was corroded, it would appear, by a
slight leak of acid from the vessels
storage battery, and through the
small aperture thus made the water
entered the ships skin, and in turn
reached the battery tanks and lib
Grated gases which did further dam
age to the structure. The admission
of wafer caused the vessel to sink and
become unmanageable, and she settled
to the bottom, where, under a heavier
pressure than her structure was built
to withstand, her seams were opened
and water was admitted in quantities
sufficient to drown the crew.
One of the primary causes of the
disaster was the presence in the lead
she'll of the storage battery of certain
impurities which caused it to corrode
and leak. Against this condition
there was no possible defense through
foresight. The eorroding of the rivet
which became leaky could not have
been detected short of an almost
microscopic examination of the hull
in dry dock. Only through the most
minute care in the details of construc-
ton and the qualities of all materials
used can safety for these craft be in
sured. 1t may be that the loss of the
F-4 will teach lessons that are valu-
able in the future.

clinch Mr.. Wilson's hold on his
party. That is unsuitable,

party. That is unsuitable.
At the same time Mr.. Wilson's
friends at home and elsewhere would
be glad to see his home state stand
by him in this contest. A republican
majority would not, they confess, be
palatable. 1t would have the taste of
dish of crow. 1t might be used to
his hurt next year after he has taken
the field for reelection. 1t would be
quotable and quoted as showing a
weakness among his own people at
a time when they had had warning of
what Interpretation would be put on
an adverse verdict.
Although the result of the suffrage
election did not outwardly disturb
Mr.. Wilson's friends, there had been
some expectation when he declared
for votes for women that his con-
version to the cause would insure its
triumph in New Jersey. They missed
their calculations by fifty-odd thou
sand votes. Are they as far astray,
or anywhere near it, in their calcu-
lations about next tuesday,
Mr.. Wilson has composed some of
the factional differences that plagued
him two years ago. But the old feud
between himself and the Smith-Nu-
gent faction still continues. Neither
side has made any advances to the
other, and both are good haters
and good fighters.

The Bulgar.Teuton Junction.

The junction between the Teutons
and the Bulgars in the northeastern
corner of Serbia is reported and in
some quarters is hailed as insurine
a tree road for the Austro-German
armies into Turkey. The point at
which the junction has been effected,
however, is not that which is most
suitable for establishment of through
communications with Constantinople,
for it is roughly mountainous region,
through which there are no railroads
and none within long distance. In
deed, SO far as railways are con-
cerned. the German armies are in lit
tie better relationship to Turkey
than they were a week ago. The
nearest line is that running from Con-
stantinople, through Adrianople, to
Sofia and thence to Nish and on to
Belgrade. To reach it the main Bal
kan range must be crossed. Any
emergency line that may be built must
find a route over this PERCEPTIONS
chain, the southern base of which is
skirted by the Constantinopie-Sofa-
Belgrade road. From military point
Of view the junction is nevertheless
important as affecting the prospect of
complete repulse of the Serbians to
points west of the Soha-Belgrade
line. The allied forces moving north
from Saloniki have not yet reached
point of effective cooperation with
the Serbians in respect to the defense
OF this route, and there is grave doubt
whether they can advance fast enough
to prevent the seizure of the entire
line from Belgrade to the Bulgarian
capital, in which event the road to
Constantinople will indeed be open.
From Berlin comes note of exul-
tation on the strength of the junction
Of the Teutonie and Bulgarian armies.
It is regarded as presaging the early
relief of Constantinople from allied
attacks on the Gallipoli peninsula and
possibly the opening of vigorous Of
fensive against England in Egypt. 1t
is far cry, however, from northeast
ern Serbia to the Suez canal. An at
tack upon Egypt presents much graver
problems for Germany than the con-
quest Of the Serbs, for even with
the Turkish territory in Asia Minor
open to German troop: the difficulties
of transport around the eastern end
of the Mediterranean are so great
as to be very gravely weighed against
the possibility of a disaster through
too long an extension of the German
lines of aggressive warfare.

New York and New jersey.

Mr.. Root is having his troubles in
New York. and Mr.. Wilson his in
New Jersey. Legislatures are to be
elected in those states next Tuesday,
and if the democrats win in New
York and the republicans in New Jes-
sey the results will be quoted in con-
nection with the national situation.
Mr.. Root, while not IN avowed can
didate for his party's presidential
nomination. is yet much in the minds
and mouths of the politicians in that
relation. He stands more conspicu-
ously than any other one man for
the new constitution now before the
people of New York, and is the lead
ing force behind the campaign for its
acceptance and for the election of 4
legislature to put it into opera alton.
If the constitution is accepted and q
republican legislature elected Mr..
Roots power at home will be highly
and widely acclaimed. II the consti-
tuition is rejected and a democratic
legislature elected, the blow will fall
on Him.
Mr.. Wilson. of course, is as good a,
,renominated. There is no declared
opposition. and the speculation about
Mr.. Bryan is vague and uneoavinc-
ing 1t is not necessary for New Jer-
sey to 60 democratic next week to

Clark and Wilson.

Champ Clark at the White House
will be of service to the President
and to the democratic party. He
knows politics thoroughly, and has
had large experience as legislator.
He has no selfish ends to serve. He
comedies Mr.. Wilson's denomination.
and will, of course, contribute all in
his power toward Mr.. Wilson's re-
election.
Mr.. Clark could be of more service
if his party had not stripped the
speah ership of its rightful impor-
lance. In the last two Houses his
duties were simply those of presid-
ing officer. In the new House they
will probably be no greater. A man
of his ability exercising in the
Speakers chair the influence that Mr..
Cannon exercised there could be of
great assistance in the handling of
a legislative program as comprehen-
sive and difficult as the one now con-
fronting the democracy.
But even without that influence ;
with only the gavel in hand and the
duty of putting and deciding parlia-
mentary questions to discharge, Mr..
Clark should yet be a tower of
strength to the President in the party
business that will come before the
House. No better counsel is avail
able to the President.
How rapid and radical sometimes
are the shifts of politicsl But for
Mr.. Bryan's course at Baltimore, Mr..
Clark would now be President. The
convention bore a Clark complexion,
and was headed for Clark result.
But Mr.. Bryan interposed, and Mr..
Wilson was nominated.
Naturally, Mr.. Bryan was made the
premier of the administration he had
brought in. 1t was but his due. He
had much to say, and Mr.. Clark prac-
tically nothing at all. The latter did
not sulk, but attended strictly to his
own affairs.
With the administration but little
more than half way through its al
lotted term, Mr.. Bryan has passed
out. and Mr.. Clark now by invitation
has come in, as presidential adviser.
But more than that. Mr.. Bryan has
gone into open opposition to the
President on most important pol
icy-preparedness-while Mr.. Clark
will assist with the putting of that
policy into the proper shape.
In the circumstances the President
has gained by the change. What he
most needs now is advice and assist
ance for his legislative program; and
as judge of legislative situation,
and how to deal with it on the eve
OF presidential campaign, Mr.. Clark
ranks Mr.. Bryan, and, for that mat
ter, nearly every other member Of
the democratic party.
