The Engineer Blamed Again

The Engineer Blamed Again.
Again tho engineer is blamed for
. train collision, the general manager Of
tho Now York Central at Cleveland,
after investigation, holding accountable
for the Amherst wreck the engineer Of
the second train, which was run into the
rear end Of the train ahead, causing the
death Of twenty-eight persons. The
finding Is that tho engineer disregarded
the precautionary signal 5000 feet in
the rear Of the train ahead and the stop
sienal 5000 feet In the rear. There was
eeatradictory testimony at the hearing
regarding the eharacter Of tho signals.
IN the case Of the Milford wreck on
the Now Haven road tho engineer was
blanaed, he, however, having lost his
lifs. He, too, was accused Of running
past signals. In the Amherst case the
engineer seems to have done everything
he should not have done, if the gen.
e,sl managers verdict 10 to be accepted.

Pirate Schiller.

Little by little the details of the
"plot" to capture the steamer Matoppo
are coming to light. Yesterday two OF
the screw" of Pirate Schiller were ar
rested in New York, and they have con-
fessed to taking money from their "easy
mark" on promises to assist him in his
crack brain enterprise. Schiller himself
seems to be somewhat of a braggart, but
with all his bravado there is certain
element of truth discernible. He ap'
pears to have been intent upon revenge
against England for personal indigni-
ties suffered by him in that country, and
also to have had some thought Of large
personal gain. He has limited at having
taken part in bomb plots. Caught red,
handed in his piracy, there is but little
chance for him under one charge or an
other, and he perhaps is reasoning that
he might as well get all the glory that
is going. The confessions of his &C.
completes do not show him up in strong
colors, however, as first-elass plotter.
He seems to have been poor judge of
men.

Issues That Cling.

The suggestion coming from the
Roosevelt camp that if nominated for
President by the republicans Mr.. Roose-
welt would not revive the domestic issues
upon which he made his campaign in
1912, but confine himself to the issues
Of today, is intended for the repubii-
cans who, with no personal objection to
the man, SHE'D at the platform upon
which as the bull moose candidate he
was standing four years ago. Never
mind about social justice" and all the
rest of that sort of thing. He has no
thought of anything now but prepared
ness; and he is sound on that. Elect
him President, and he will put the coun-
try into an adequate state of defense.
In 1900, Mr.. Bryan, renominated by
the democrats, did not emphasize the
silver question as he had done in 1896.
he tried to make anti-imperialism the
paramount issue. We had but recently
taken over the Philippines, and it was
Mr.. Bryan's contention that if we did
not withdraw from the islands promptly
We should find ourselves headed for
what he called imperialism. And i'm
perialism, as he described it, would
mean the beginning Of the end of our
republican institutions.
He presented the question with his
usual eloquenee, and secured attention.
But he could not get away from the sill
yer question. There we're some demo
Gratis and some republicans who agreed
with him about the Philippines, but who
still regarded him as the apostle of un-
sound finance, and on that account OPP
posed him as in 1896. They reasoned
that, with imperialism settled by him
as President, he would turn to other
questions, and then revive silver.
Try as he might, Mr.. Roosevelt as
candidate this year could not get away
from his platform of 1912. That de-
liverance, with its drive particularly at
the courts, made him in the opinions of
a great many voters the apostle Of revo-
luton as respects the administration Of
Justice; and they would reason about
him in that matter as many did in 1900
about Mr.. Bryan in the matter Of silver.
Social justice" is as vague term
now as whom first used, but quite as dis
quieting. And as it cost Mr.. Roosevelt
votes in 1912, it would cost him quite
as many this year. Many men in agree
ment with him on preparedness distrust
him on these other issues.

-frssh In evsEybody's mind-may be
cited to Justify the Senate's procedure.
All the important legislation Of that
body received the distinct impress of
the Senate, and was benefited by it. The
House tariff bill was held five months,
and materially improved. Some Of the
best features Of the currency measure
were added in the Senate.
Outside the Senate, the note of i'm
patience was heard. Why did not the
Senate hurryf What was the use OF all
the examination and debatei Had the
House bungled so that everything had
to be reshapedi
The Senate replied by taking all the
time it thought necessary. 1t went thor
ouehly into both the tariff and the cur
rency questions, put its own construc-
lions on the country's needs, and had
the satisfaction later of seeing its views
accepted by the House and Endorsed by
the President. 1t did not succeed in
OuG pCliOSl Wy Se ." 49,
succeed in improving those the House
had turned out.
The Senate now should guide by that
record. Much of the Houses work IS
being done under rush orders. Special
rules from the rules committee are OBJ
tainable whenever desired. Debate is
cut to the bone. Amendments in some
matters are barred as if plaques.
It is not necessary to emphasize the
importance of the questions the House
has dealt with, or is soon to deal with.
Supply bills, preparedness, revenue,
rural credits are not of the while-you-
wait sort. And it may be that the
Houses speed takes into account hope
that the Senate, under its freedom, will
retouch whatever it receives.
The national conventions have no
proper place in the equation. Interest
ing and important as they will be, they
can be held and all their business salts
factorily transacted with Congress still
in session.

set for their own protectionf Do they
do it deliberately because they know
that their rating at headquarters de-
ponds upon their ability to bring their
trains in ON timef Or are they hon
estly mistaken in the signalsf
It is hardly conceivable that men de-
iberately run past danger signals when
their own lives are usually the first to
be lost in event of collision. IF they
do so there must be some strong reason
in the railroad practice and manage
ment to induce them to take this chance.
The weight of logic seems to rest against
this supposition. 1t is much more prob
able that in most cases of disregarding
signals the engineers are mistaken, per-
haps by the obscuring of the lights, pos
sibly because the signals are tardily set.
In any case, these repeated collisions,
caused by ignored or misunderstood sig
mails, certainly constitute a convincing
indictment against the sufficiency Of the
existing signal system, the trackside
method of giving warning.
Not until the signal is brought into
the cab. so that the engineer cannot pos
sibly mistake, will the question Of re-
sponsibility be definitely fixed, and this
reform that for some strange reason the
railroads are resisting or are being pre-
vented from adopting should 60 even
further and make it impossible to move
a train beyond prohibited point if the
engineer wishes to take chance on his
own judgment and send his train into
danger zone.
