Flight, Conviction, Suicide.

Last week q man was convicted of
wife murder at Mineola, \. Y, after
a trial which had attracted much at
tention by reason of the fact that the
evidence against the accused was al
most wholly circumstantial. One of
the circumstances that directed sus-
picion against him was the fact that
short time after the crime he fled
from New York, and after a short stay
at another city under an assumed
name. with change of appearance
through the shaving off of pronounced
ly individual whiskers, returned Of his
own volition. This flight undoubtedly
had a material influence with the jury.
Yesterday the convicted man, who
would have been sentenced to death
tomorrow, took his own life by hang
ing in his cell, leaving letters that pro-
tested his innocence.
Inevitably this act Of suicide will
clinch the conviction in many minds
that the accused husband was guilty
Of the crime charged against him.
Taken in connection with his flight
before he had been formally accused,
it seems like confession, even in the
face Of his distinct denial Of guilt
But the case still stands as conviction

The Ex-Kaiser's Goat.

Former Chancellor Won Bethmann
Hollweg offers himself as proxy for
the former kaiser for trial by the
allies. He claims that under the Ger
man constitution he bore as chan
cellor sole responsibility for the po-
litical acts of the emperor. That may
be true as a figure of speech. He
was responsible for the emperor's
acts, however, only to the German
people through the reichstag. But
there is a greater responsibility now
and a broader one. affecting not mere
ly the German people or the reichstag
which has ceased to exist, but the out
ragged sense of humanity as expressed
in the demands of the allied nations.
1t may be noble, and brave, and self
part to offer himself in the kaiser's
stead. as his political alter ego. but it
will not serve. Won Bethmann Holl
veg himself may be one of those cited
for trial and punishment. 1t is vet
to he determined how far he was guilty
in his own responsibility for the in
vasion of Belgium and other offenses
against international law in 1914. The
kaiser's offense was far graver than
that of the chancellor. Unless the Ger
man constitution was utterly belied in
the summer of 1914 the kaiser was SUI
preme commander of the German
forces and likewise supreme director
of the German policy. His ministers
and his generals were but his means
of communication and administration
If some other will than his own gov
erned he had, in effect, abdicated his
power 1t is for him to plead the
shift of responsibility, not one of
those under his direction. Such a plea
would be tantamount to a confession
that he had ceased to be in fact En-
peror of Germany when the war was
started If William Hohenzollern
wishes to make such confession of
impotence in 1914 the opportunity will
probably be soon afforded him.

There is expectation that this spirit
will show in the President on his re-
turn. He has been considerably criti-
cised for aloofness: Members of his
own party have complained of his in
accessibility. They have not been
able to reach him as often as desired.
But for six months now the Presi-
dent has been participant almost
daily in conferences. 1t is believed
he has acquired the comforting habit,
and upon his return will see the advisa-
bility, even the necessity. of applying
it to domestic issues.
He is the leader of his party. and
will be held responsible for the con
dition in which il enters next years
campaign. He may head its national
ticket again. But whether he does OF
not, he will want it to make Il winning.
He will not want, after eight wears CT
complete domination of h:s party. to
give way for leader of the opposl
ton party pledged to policies directly
in conflict with those he has been sup
porting.

upon circumstantial proof, interpreta-
ton of many little facts which put
together appeared to demonstrate
guilt. 1t has been said that circum-
stantial evidence is the most trust
worthy. In this case, however, the ac-
cused claimed that much of this evil
dence had been planted" by the po-
lice Yet his flight was solely his own
act. Had he not run away before ac-
cusation probably not all the cfrcum-
stances produced against him at the
trial would have served to convict him,
for there is q strong prejudice in
the minds of most men against finding
guilty one who is not positively known
to have been implicated in a crime.

Trade and Ratification.

Notice has been given to the Ger
man government by the allied council
at Paris that the blockaG" will be
raised Immediately upon receipt of in
formation that the treaty of peace has
been ratified by Germany and this
act will not wait upon ratification by
the allied powers. This has a double
effect 1t puts premium upon Ger
man promptness of ratification and
it assures all the nations an equal op-
portunity in the competition for Ger
man trade. regardless of the procedure
of ratification in the various countries.
This announcement that the block
AIDE will be raised when Germany rati
6es has also the effect of declaring that
it will not be raised until ratification
is effected. Thus a powerfully influ
entail fact is stated in pleasantly
affirmative manner. The blockade is
today the allies chief weapon to bring
Germany quickly to the point Of
treaty enforcement. Germany is eager
for resumption of trade. The allies
must be willing and anxious for Ger
many to begin trading again. for until
Germany gets into the world market
and sells her goods she cannot make
money for the liquidation of her war
debts.
Germany needs today great quaint
ties of raw materials. The allied
countries stand ready to sell them to
her, England and the United States
chiefly. Prejudice and partisanship
will play but little figure in this pro-
ceeding. The goods are in hand await
ing market, and the market is all but
ready to receive them. There are some
neutral countries that will be lively
rivals for this trade. Germany may
be hoping to get good quotations on
raw materials in consequence of this
competition. But she will be no favor
ed nation. Her needs are no greater
than those Of France, and if there is
any preference France will receive the
benefit of it.
Two forces now, therefore, operate
to bring Germany to the point o.;
speedy ratification desire for trade re-
sumption and fear of possible allied
pressure. Against these two factors
operating to the same point of treaty
acceptance is the junker spirit, which
even in the hour of signature was
manifesting in Germany and demand
ing reputation of the treaty As
against the commercial interest and
the fear Of punishment this exalted
patriotic spirit is not likely to pre-
vail Ratification may be expected in
short order. The question Of faithful
fulfillment of the treaty obligations,
however, is quite another matter

The Conference Spirit.

In congressional circles conferences
are almost continuous. Count that day
rare, if not lost, whose slow descend
ing sun has not witnessed a number of
them in informal session. Both par
ties show the spirit. Conferences are
the wear.
This is especially true in Senate cir
cles; and for the reason that the par
ties in the Senate are almost evenly
divided. In party matters there must
be teamwork, or no work. The repub-
icans must bring their men up to the
scratch. When united. they outnum-
Der the democrats by only two. The
slightest division, therefore, on a mat
ter where the majority ruled might
cause serious embarrassment.
The situation is not regrettable 1t
may work much good. Party matters
are now coming on to be heard. Near
" every problem of reconstruction
contains the germ of party. There will
he party divisions all along the line,
and they will cause some warm con-
troversies.
In this is the value of a slender
majority. Business must be carefully
prepared, and then as carefully pre-
sented. Those responsible for bust
ness, in order to transact business,
must get together and hold together.
The minority likewise must get to-
Rether and hold together If it is to per.
form full party duty. Mere resist
ance to majority measures. is not
enough. In resistance it must at least
outline policies Of its own. 1t must
make . record to which IL can appeal

The Treaty in the Senate.

With the President on the sea,
headed for home, matters respecting
the peace treaty and the Senate begin
to tighten Very soon now the con
test for ratification will be in full
swing.
While the question has not been de-
cided, the weight of feeling is that the
Senate should debate the treaty in the
open. And this for several reasons.
~ The Importance of the instru-
ment comes first. The Senate as part
of the treaty making power of the gov
upon to consider treaty of so much
moment
(2) Public interest is already high,
and will continue to mount until the
final vote is taken. The treaty at pres
emit has no rival in the discussions of
politicians. fnanciers, manufacturers,
farmers, or wage -earners. Everybody
Is seeking, or shedding. light
go The people desire full informa-
ton, not only as to where senators
stand. but why they have taken their
positions. And as third OF the seats
in the Senate will figure in next year $
campaign. senators aspiring TO sue
:eed themselves should have oppor-
funity to go on record in their places
with full explanation.
Some senators have already express
cd themselves, both in their places and
on the stump. Others are following.
But the formal discussion-the enc go
ing into the official reports of the Sen
ate-will take on the greater impor-
lance from the presence of the treaty
on the Senate's table. With the terms
of the instrument open to all to read,
all observations on the subject, for or
against, will he more definite.
Open doors will be a violation Of
precedent. But so also will be the
stumping tours. Such appeals have
never been made in the case of any
other treaty. In all other cases the
Senate has been left to do it's work
without the aid or influence of popu-
lar suggestion
The stamping tours may be cited,
too. to show that the Senate situation
is not as yet within the reach of safe
forecast. We may excuse the con-
fdence expressed by both sides. That
il business" But the fact remains
that both confess by their prepare
tons to some anxiety Neither seems
willing to rest the case as it stands
fresh from the Paris conference.
The discussions, in the Senate and
out, will be the better for warmth in
the sense of earnestness, and for di-
rectness, for the purpose of getting a,
the meat" of matters. But there is
no reason why either side should in
dulge in any of the extravaganees that
mark political appeals, and too often
AFFECT public sentiment ON questions
meriting better treatment.
