COAL BY WATER.

Once more assurances have been re- ceived that New England will be pro- vitied a supply of coal that will relieve its existing and threatened shortage. This we have been repeatedly told would re- suit but thus far there is little evidence of it and despite the fact that many mills have closed, for this or other reasons there does not appear to be enough coal being received to meet requiremnts.
 This time the promised relief is given 10 the coal administrators for the New England states by the representatives of the soft coal operators. and it is to be furnished by shipping the fuel by water from coastal points nearest to the mines h other words instead of relying upon the railroads to bring all the coal into this part of the country attention is to be given to the utilization of the facilities available by water
 It was not long ago that a similar idea was endorsed since which time there has been more coal received by water than there was previously but nowhere near what there ought to be at this season of the year
 New England has relied upon water transportation for a large part of it's coal supply for years. It is the very means that should be employed at this season oS the year for the movement of coal and fer the relief of the congested and .enbargoed railroads. When there was nc such trouble in moving freight as thsre is today water transportation was tte means by which the greater part oi Ire coal was brought into this part oi .he country and all tidewater points re- seived coal in no other way. Today with she railroads unable to handle all the business before them these very same .idewater points have been getting coa for months almost entirely by rail tc she exclusive of the water route
 Therefore not only for the relief ot the coal shortage but as an aid to ths y1Hroads should every ton of coal nos site- be forwarded by water. and during - the months when good weather will aIs, help- Just why there should have beer snr thought Of not employing the watel route is hard to understand.

DIRECTLY AGAINST THE LAW.

Whatever may have been the ground under which the officials of the steamer Orizaba of the Ward line sailing in reg ular service between this country and Cuba figured that they could open up their bars and do business while the yes sel twas taking a crowd to the yacht
 races. it seems evident that there could
 not have been 8 very close study given
 to the law. if in fact there was pre-
 arranged plan to serve the passengers
 during the trip.
 Beyond the three mile limit of course
 the prohibition law does not holG. That
 is where the reach of the law ends and of course the steamer, was beyond that point before anything was sold in the nature of intoxicating beverages. That the vessel should have had wet goods abroad is due to the fact that under the existing law it is possible for ships in American registry to open up their bars and sell upon passing the three mile linn
 it and the right to do this was possessed
 by the Orizaba. but according to the law this applies only to vessels in the trans
 oceanic service and actually clearing in
 good faith from this country for a for
 eign port.
 The Orizaba therefore had a right to have liquor aboard and had it been or its way to Cuba it would have been with in the law to have sold anything desir-
 ed in the way of intoxicants, but it was not started on such trip. It was out beyond the three mile limit to return just as soon as the yacht race was over and therefore not headed for a foreign port in the meaning of the law, and had not cleared for such a point
 That the authorities should thereafter see that the bars were effeetually closed while making such trips is by no means
 surprising. If there is to be 9 semblanct of the enforcement of the law that cer- tainly could not be overlooked Whether it was intentional or whether, as one re port had it, it was the work of an over eager wet employe of the steamer, it wa: directly against the law

sHAMRoCK,s YIoToRY.

There are quite as uncertain periods in yacht race as there are in other sports and it is perfectly evident that mighty little progress cans be made without the wind. In the last two tests between the Resolufe and the Shsscrock it has been ay struggle. for the shippers to find the breeze Luck has favored first one and then the other and while Sir Thomas Lip ton was displeased over what he con 5idered poor seamanship on the part of his skipper he has been able to get two races through an accident and poor wind while the Resolute has won none,
 It is to be sincerely hoped that the contest is not going to end without an opportunity for disclosing the merits of the two sloops when there is plenty of wind or sufficient at least to show what they are capable of doing. It is to be realized that construction and seaman snip are to be taken into consideration in such a race and that credit must be given for the way racer is handled in order to make. the best progress with an uncertain wind and get the push from every stray puff but it is nevertheless de sirable to get a line on the behavior when there is a steady and dependable breeze.
 The decision of Sir Thomas to give his skipper another tryout will he regarded as a wise one Certainly the first vic tory for the Shamrock without the bene- fit of an accident indicated the ability of Captain Burton to handle the craft to excellent advantage and to redeem the poor showing that he made in the pre- vious slow run. That it will prevent his removal would seem to be indicated.
 With the Resolute showing up much better in the first two trials the outcome of the second actual race must be highly pleasing to Sir Thomas but something in the way of race that can furnish more enthusiasm is looked for before the ownership of the cup is determined In less the Resolute is able to get today's contest it will mean that the America $ cup will be taken back across the water result which might do as much as any thing to revive interest in this Y-interna- tional contest.

 The Cup-l,y aIistas1e.--eThe Cup" which Sir Thomas Lipton hopes to bring
 back, would never have crossed the At lantic but for foolish mistake The
 America came over in 1851 to take part
 in the races in the Solent. This event
 prompted the Royal Yacht Squadron to
 offer a cup for a race round the Isle of
 Wight There were IS entrants and 15
 competed, but there was considerable
 vagueness as to the course. Some com
 petitors went outside the Nab lightship :;
 others simply went round the island,
 which .Aertened the course by three
 miles-a..d the America was one whose
 instructions allowed it to take the short course. This resulted in the cup cross ing the .Atlantic, and it's remaining there unchallenged from August 1851 to 1870. CraigmilIar Castle. Craigmillar, where today the king lays the founda- tion stone of the new buildings of the
 University of Edinburgh, has many Roy al memories. for the old castle, built in 1454 by Sir William Preston, who pre- sented St. Giles's Cathedral with a re- outer arnbone of it's patron, was held under tenure from the crown on the ex- press condition that whenever required it should be resigned for the sovereign S use. Several of the Stuart kings exer- cised their right in this respect and lived | awhile at Craigmillar Castle ;and it was there while Queen Mary was in residence ! that number of her lords, after vain 1 ly urging her to seek divorce from Darnley, made a compact for the removal of that young fool and, proud tyrant.' LondOn's .Water.-The threat of the l employees of the Metropolitan Water
 Board to come out on strike unless their
 demand for a fl minimum is conceded by next Saturday is due to the failure of the Whitley council to come to settle ment. The men we believe, somewhat overestimate their power when they sug- | gest that they can render London water 1 less within few hours. If such strike
 should happen, however, it is more than l likely that Londoners would have to be
 content with a restricted supply, and with unpurified water. But it is nol

CLEANED FROM FOREIGN
 EXCHANGES.

It IS no doubt very alarming to see that the estimated expenditure of the current year is 906 millions, as compared with ITO millions audited in 1913-14 or.
 If We take interest on debt into account
 1,2S2 millions as against less than POS millions. But if we. remember that the purchasing value of money is considera- ply less than half what it was before the war-the board of trade figures show that the same weight of exports vary in money value from two to five times the pre-war fgure-then we see that the expenditure has not gone up, as it ap- pears to do, skiold, but less than three fold. In l91S-19 the expenditure was more than three times as great as it is now, and we are now paying 123 mil lions in war pensions 45 millions in bread subsidy, 25 millions for housing subsidies and materials, and many oth- CT services which are legacies of the war. Old age pensions, education and the ministries of health and labor show
 large but necessary increases. The de- partments have been cutting down ex- penses, but it is somewhat surprising that the admiralty has not cut down its staff more drasticaliy. There is still room for severe retrenchment.

Treaty Saves Murderer.

Two years ago a. German prisoner of war named Hopp was tried by courtmar- tial for the murder in atrocious eircum- Stances, of a farmers wife and daughter. He was condemned to death, but it is now found that he cannot be executed, and it would seem that he will have to wait in prison all his life as a condemned man whose sentence can neither be renitted nor carried out.
 In the Berne convention of 1918 the allies and Germany agreed not to carry out sentences on prisoners of war. It was meant to insert in the peace treaty a clause enabling the allies to deal with fragrant crimes. but at the last moment it was omitted. .--Daily Chronicle, London
