Shi'IehT, who rotund from the wardnship of the State l'rison yesterday, has been a most efficient man In a most difficult position. JIo instituted practical reforms and showed distinct capacity for the office which he resigned. Justice Jerome, who is making a sort of whirlwind campaign In Xew York city, declares that it is his experience in that 1 ay that the Catholic clersy do not interfere in politics unless some moral isme is involved, when they stand with all the other clersy. Paper? in cities which are not accorded as much money for the improvement of their harbors and rivers by the chief engineer as they desire are making demands for more; but if a river and harbor appropriation bill of large dimensions should be enacted they would denounce it profligate. It is not often that a European news agency make vo conspic uous a mistake as announcing the return of the French squadron which had been dispatched on an imtfrjnt mJsion and had no thought of returning-. The explanation of the mistake is reasonable, but it wh none the Ies mbarrasring. The Portuguese minister at Washington for some time past ha been recalled In disfavor in consequence of his premature announcement of President. McKinley'. death, whereby he caused his government grtat annoyance. It was the same premature announcement that was made th basis of extra editions by some of the city papers. The New York Pre?s figure? that, upon the basis of past elections, will require but 30,000 votes in addition 10 the Republican vote to elect Mr. Low mayor. If the various anti-Tammany organizations indorsing the fusion ticket cannot furnish that number, th Press says, they should rot be considered of any account in future elections. On the completion of Its sixtieth year the r.rooklyn Kagle, an independent Democratic newspaper, received letters of congratulation from several of the leading men of New York of both parties, including Senator Piatt, but among those published a letter from Poss Croker is not found. In reeent years the Kagle has never been able to be in accord with Tarnmanv. The new warden of the State Prison talks straight to the point, lie says he has left his polities outsdde; that no person will iiavt any political "pull" with him: that his administration of the prison will be based on the merit system, and that he Intends to give the people "a clean, honest admlni?tration of their trust here." Without reflecting on past administrations it may be said this is what the people expect. While the Pan-American exhibition was an artistic success, and visitors spent million in Imffatu. financially, to far us the thareholders are concerned. It was such a pronounced failure thut the corporation is bankrupt. This result will have a tendency to check the exploiting of world's fairs, unless Congress beeumes a sponsor for them, which it should not. The appropriation for the St. T .ouis fair should be the last. Without regard to the merits of the ai.tialoor trusade started by the civic Alliance, the d-ir-iin of Juie A I ford on the proposition to puni.-h for contempt grand Jurors w h voted against liuoing indie tments is douhtUs collect.

Yet nobody has disturbed the Anarchists of Spiing Valley or th oilitor of th'ir oran. who d'-ckm-d that he is entitled to the protection of the law. It is said that this ihm of Anarchists is to!elated because they have votes. While the seios of discontent and prompting assassination these foes of law and order are protected. Here is a place wlure th .State of Illinois should besin the work of destroying diarchy. Ami b re it may be a.-ked, why are Anarchists permitted to b"coin' citizens of the ("nitcd States by naturalization?

tiii: s iii.i:v cot it t or ixiintv. It Is probable there is a good deal of popular mise onecption regarding the outcome of th Schley court of iivjuiry. which is now drawing t a. t !(. In the hrst place, the c-urt is not authorized to impose a pen lit-, even it one were found to be deserved. It can only report facts. The naval regulations say that courts of inquiry may summon and examine witnesses, "but they shall only state facts and shall not give their opinion unless expressly requireei so to elo in the order for convening." In the present case the order convening the court does not call for any .presnion of opinion. The public-, therefore, will not learn from th report f th: -ourt the oplniejn of it members on the facts as found. The court Js. hejwcver, instructed to make its conclusions as explicit'as possible on ten different points named In the precept, so that its report ought to settle all of the mooted questiems regarding which charges and counter-charges have been made. In view of the high character of the court and the unquestioned reputation of its members its report should be accepted as conclusive regarding the facts and as absolutely fair and impartial. Meanwhile the public will be lorming some conclusions of its own. one of which is that the charge made by the so-cal'.eel historian Maclay. upon which Admiral Schley based his demand for a court of inquiry, has not been sustained by a particle of evidence. This charge was that Schley had acted like a "caitiff and a coward," and hal "turned tail in open light and run away from the enemy." The charge was incredible on its face, and all Americans should rejoice that it has been shown to le absolutely false. While this particular charge is not before the court, it is involved in those specilications of the precept which direct the court to report upon "the circumstances attending the arrival of the flying squadron off Santiago, the reasons for its retrograde turn west and departure from off Santiago ami the propriety thereof;" and ahse to report upon "the circumstances attending, the reasons for and the incidents resulting from the turning of the liroüklyn in the direction in which she turned at or about the beginning of the action with said Spanish vessels." Whatever the report of the cejurt may show as to the circumstances attending these Incident?, it cannot fail to show that Admiral Schley's motives were above suspicion and that Ida conduct at these times and at all times was that of a brave and gu.lla.nt officer, perfectly self-possessoel in times of danger und master of the situation at all times. The course pursued by the judge advocate in his epuestloning of witnesses has shown an evident desire to sustain the attlttiele and contention of the Navy Department towards Aelmiral Schley. In response to a request from the Senate Secretary Long submitted to that body in February, a statement regarding the pending promejtlons of Sampson and Schley, in which he said: The advancement of Commodore Schley was proposed In recognition of his services as next in rank at the victory of Santiago. Where so much whs achieved in this culminating battle, and where his ship was such a conspicue)us force in the tight, Ids conduct while in independent command, prior to June 1, which, by rea.-on of its unsteadinesr in purpose and failure to obey orelers. end not meet with the approval of the President, the department has not permitted to stand in the way of his nomination for promotion te a higher grade for the part he took in the final triumph. In this connection a pertinent fact Is the letter of Admiral Sampson, in which, while not overlooking Commodore Schley's reprehensible coniuct. as above referree to, he asks that ample justice be done him for his part in the acthm of July 'A. Tins places the Navy Department on record as censuring Commodore Schley for reprehensible conduct while in independent command prior to June 1. Th "reprehensible conduct" referred to, which the secretary says included "unsteadiness of purpose and failure to obey orders," was Schley's alleged delay off Cienfuegos from May 24 to May 26, and his retrograde movements of May :(i and 27, when he started for Key West to coal, temporarily raising the blockade of Santiago harbor. The judge advocate has shown an earnest desire to sustain this charge of the Navy Department. The report of the court ought to fhow whether the facts sustain the charges, though as the court will not express any opinion on the facts it may still be difficult for laymen to decide whether the charges were justified or not. If so, they will be very apt to conclude that it was a mere errer of judgment on the part of an officer who had to exercise large discretion, and that it was fully atoned for by his gallant and effective service in the final victory at Santiago. The department could well have afforded to overlook a technical violation of orders that did not have any bad consequences, in view of Schley's service in the "culminating baltle, wh?re his ship was surh a conspicuous force in the fight." The report of the court ought to show whether there was even a technical violation of order. ih. cahk;ii"s i.atkvt ;n r.

If the reports from Washington regarding the canal treaty are correct, a draft of a treaty has been agreed upon by Secretary Hay and Lord Paunc fote whic h will remove one ejf the serious obstacles which steioel in the way cd' the Isthmian project. As reported, the new treaty provides that whenever a canal shall be built it shall be neutral, and the neutrality shall be guaranteed by the Fnited States alone. It further gives the United States alone the riaht t- builel such fprtih?ations as may be neces.-ary to enforce neutrality. Such a treaty supersedes and annuls the ClaytouI.ulwer treaty, which has so long been the cause of irritation between Great Prltaiu and the Cnited States. Further, the treaty tacitly involves recognition of the Monroe doctrine by Great Prltain, while the Clay-ton-Pulwer treaty involved the assumption that the United States could not construct an isthmian canal without the consent, if not the co-operation, of Great Britain. It is said that Senators Lodge, Morgan and other.?, who opposed the last treaty, are entirely satisfied with the new draft, because it puts the canal in the control of the United States and makes no provision for participation by any other power. It was not thought, a year ago, that Great Britain would c onsent to such radical changes irom the original treaty. The first British expressions were that the British government would not consent to annulment of the Clayton-Bulwer treaty and to American control of the canal, but it is evident that Great Britain sees the importance of the canal to British commerce, and has entire confidence in our government to maintain the neutrality of the canal. It is not too much to say that this confidence and good will in our government were due largely to the attitude of the present administration because It would not bo led by popular clamor to violate the Clayton-Bulwer treaty, which was negotiated more because the United States desired It, as a sort of guarantee that Great Britain would not undertake the construction on Its own account and otherwise get control of a portion of Central America. Great credit is due to Secretary Hay for this gratifying concession to the United States. Our jingoes have charged him with being subservient to British influence and have taunted him with a lack of true American spirit, but his success in negotiating the treaty proves that he is not only an abler man than any of his accusers, but that he has displayed the true American spirit of patient insistence. The treaty, as foreshadowed, is a signal triumph for the United States and a fresh laurel for the administration. Iloth have been secured without putting this government in the attitude of a treaty-breaker before the world, which would not have been the case if -come of the measures urged In Congress had been adopted. New York papers report that daring the last few days the chances of fusion success in that city have t, atly Improved. The people have been ai ousel to the latest Infamies of Tammany, and indications are that Mr. Shepard, because of his past hostility to Tammany, will fail to draw largely from the reform element and will disgust many Tammany followers. Boss Croker is reported as saying that he cannot be held responsible for the result, as the campaign has not been conducted as he would have advised. Still, the power of the streetrailway and other local corporations holding Tammany franchises cannot be safelyunderrated. All these are for Tammany, and they can control many votes. The betting, which is on a large scale, was against the fusion candidate until within a few days: now the odds are generally in favor of Ixw, and the fusion money offered exceeds that of Tammany.

Over and above the four warships for which Congress directed him last session to prepare plans as a basis for approprlatiem at the next session. Secretary Long has before him the l (-commendations ef the fb.ard of Naval Construction, looking t authorization by Congress of the building of forty more naval vessels of all classes, from battleships down to tugboat;-. The plans for the two armored cruisers and two battleships, rrojecteel by Congress last session, alreaely have been prepared an.I look to the construction of about 1 ,''"'-ton battleships and H.ono-ton cruisers. The battleships and cruisers alditional to these which the construction boanl proposes probably will be ot about the same size and general type. The board's complete plan'is: Three seagoing battleships of about ltimo tons displacement, two armored cruisers of about H.yo tons displacement, six gunboats of about l,2oo tons, six gunboats of about O) tons, six gunboats of about IX"- tons, two colliers of about 13,0c) tons, one repair ship of about 7.5ÖO tons, six training ships of about 2,000 tons, four picket boats of about tiöo tons, four tugboats. While the above appears to be a startling amount of naval construction to recommend to Congress, it is stated that it is, after all, nearly a repetition of the programme submitted to that body through Secretary Leong by the construction board last year, and is even smaller than the aggregate tonnage proposed to be authorized by the general, or Dewey, board. In each case, it is explained, the recommendations are but the steps necessary to be taken to carry out the general policy of providing the United States with a modern navy of sufficient strength and made up of harmonious units. This policy was thought out carefully by tho two boards, and If it is carried out as is proposed ihey declare that the symmetrical navy finally provided would be very much more effective than the more numerous navies of several of the Kuropean states.

Nov. l.-The Cabinet meeting to-day was devoted largely to consideration of the recess appointments which the President must send to Congress when it convenes next month. The Presielcnt Is going carefully over these appointments with the members of the Cabinet. Secretary Gage reported his action in resuming the purchase of bonds, which was responded to this morning with an offer of over $)0,000. No announcement wau made as to the length of time the purchase is to continue. The Cabinet also discusse.l the abrogation of the so-called Browning Indian school ruling, but no further action was taken. Secretary Hitchcoc k explalneel th situation and said that if the abrogation proved to be a disadvantage to the Indian children or detrimental to their best interests ho would recall it and re-establish the Browning ruling, which was made on Sept. HO. lSinS, kihI directed that the Indian agents first should build up and maintain the government day schools, and declared that the Indian parents have no right to designate which school their children shall attend. "In a particular case, however." according to this ruling. "whre you (the agents) think it advisable to follow the wishes of the parents, that is left entirely to your good judgment." The abrogation of the ruling alreaely has caused numerous Inquiries of the Interior Department. The bureau of Cathoho missions has been fighting for the abrogation ever since the ruling was made, and last July called attention of the department to its nonaction and to the fact that Secretary Hitchcock, when on the Pacllie coast trip of the President and Cabinet last summer, had telegraphed Assistant Secretary Byan to give Archbishop Ireland assurance that the ruling wouhl be rescinded, and that Mr. Ryan wired the archbishop accordingly. Commissioner of Indian Affairs Jones has strenuously opposed the abrogation, but finallv. after a full discussion with Secretary Hitchcock, agreed to abrogate it tentatively, with the distinct understanding that it could be re-established if found to be to the Indians' best interest, and if the action was in accordance with the wishes and directions of the secretary. - - VISCOtAT TIIUYSO nKCALLKD.

A dispatch from Lisbon says Senor Horto Machada has b--en appointed minister from Portugal to this covntry, while the correspondent of the New York Herald says 4,the Visconde Santo Thryso. Portuguese minister, has been recalled and placed 'en dlsponibilite' in conseeiuence of his premature announcement of President McKinley s death, whereby be caused the government great annoyance." Shortly after the death of President McKinley the Viscount de Santo Thryso was summoned to Lisbon. According to M.

Nov. l.-The hinds of the elongated, anti'i'.c tinu piece whi'h ttards against tin wall in the hall vom pie-el by th s lib-y court of in;uiry pointed to l':l"i o'cloek to-day whn Ju lec Ad0e ale Le mly annom-t ' .1 that In h;id no inor witness-:, to call, and Mr. R.eyr.e r. following him. said that no witness wo-.dd p,- saminoin d on b-half of Admit al Schley in surrebut tal. For a moment it appeared as if tin now pinions e.is xvas about to leach A Midden conclusion. But this ebpision wis soon eussipatcil by the annoum-v nit nt on lhj pari ed Captain launly that In- might ak to be allowed to bring in one mole witness on Monday, and also a statement from Mr. Kayner that Aelmiral Schley him.-clf would desire to return to the stand on Monday to correct e-rrors in his evidence as officially reported. There is probability that the admiral xx ill consume c euisidera ble time In gaing ov r tin pri ited record ef xxh.it In said, am', there also Is an understanding hat no xx ill make -tome additions ti his f emu r statements. But ii is not believed that beyond what he may have to say there will be much more testimony taken in the case. The only witness that the jiulge aelvocate still has in mind is Lieutenant Strauss, and Captain Lemly said to-day that if the lieutenant's attendance- could be f ecu red he would detain tlie court for a short time only. Captain Sigsbeo also will return to the stand on Monday to mike corrections in the testimony given yesterday by hini. These letalis completed, the argument of counsel will begin, and then counsel and the public will withdraw and leave th court to its deliberations. The tusk before the court is not a light one, and it maybe weeks before the. final verdict will be reached. To-day's witnesses were Mr. Sylvester Scovil. a former newspaper correspondent who saxv service in the Cuban campaign. Lieutenant Hood, xvho commanded the Hawk during the Spanish war, and also a number of orfieers who were heard yesterday and xvho returned '.o the stand to correct testimony. Tlie cort held only on session and adjourned over until Monday. SMALL A TT F N DA NC K. The attendance on the court to-day w-s the smallest since the sessions began. Comparatively few of the reserved beats were occupied at the beginning of to-day's sitting, and Lieutenant Crawford, Admiral Dewey's private secretary, who has handled the distribution of tickets with rare tact, invited those present to the front when he discovered that the seats would not b neeeled by ticket holder, thus giving the court an audience and at the same time affording the chance visitors a good opportunity to hear the proceedings. The court was six minutes late in entering the hall to-day, this being the hrst time that absolute promptness has not been observed. Judge Advocate Lemly announcoi that counsel had agreed on the orier of the speeches in closing the case, subject to the sanction of the court. Mr. llaniu Is to open fr the depar'.in -it. He wi'i be followed by Captain Parker and Mr. Kavrv r lor Aelmiral Schley, and Jit.lgp Advocate Lemly will close for the department. Admiral Dewey announce-! that this arrangement was satisfactory to tlie court, o'apt. Lemly then brought up ibe pustlon of me character of the argument to he made, saying: "I wouhl like, lor my own information, to ask the instructions of the o.irt as to whether or not we are expected in the closing argument to confine oursel.s t. the evidence ami to the isceipe o. the precept as defined by the ourt. I mein the arguments rnaeie both try counsel for the applicant ami by my associate and myself." After the matter had been further discussed by Mr. Rayner and Captain Lcrnlv Admiral Dewey said: 'There won't be ittrouble about that. When we come to that bridge we will cross it." Sylvester Scovil xva then calle.l as then lirst wittiesr of the day. He said that while on the press boat Smers N. Smith at a newspaper e.rrespondent in Ma' or .IS It came up with the St. Paul, . whbh Capt. Sigsbe-e was in rommar.il off th shore ,.f Santiago. There was a commnru. atpi with Captain Sigsbee through the megaphone, and he himse lf lad used th rn uaphone In conducting .he interview. 'ic witness said the Sorr.e-r- N.
