Theie wete threats ot a strike. The Civic federation Intervened. A conference was called. Finally II was agreed that all hands should remain at work at the existing wage rale until another conieroiice which Is to be held In May. liy that time It Is believed that both sides will have cooled off suf ficiently to get together and make the temporary peace permanent. This is an example for the anthracite oper ators. What Alls Miles? THAT political ambition of a kind fatal to food judgment Is at the bottom ot tho strange procedure of General Allies has been suspected hut now It Is openly charged. Tho Washington cor respondent of the New York Sun al leges that he has good authority for the assertion that shortly prior to the Phil adelphia convention General Miles made an overture to President MoKInley looking to his own nomination, for vice president on the McKlnley ticket. Xot v receiving the encouragement desired, General Miles, the Sun story goes, then turned to Colonel Roosevelt proposing to form an anti-McKlnley ticket with Miles for president and Roosevelt for vice-president. That overture, likewise was rejected. Further assertions similar In chare ter are made hi AVashinglou corres pondence of the New York Herald, which quotes "a prominent oniclal'" as follows: "General Miles lias long been a candidate for the presidency. He desires to be an antl-admlnlstra-tlon and Democratic candidate. Con tinuously since President Ituosevelt entered the White House the lieuten ant general has been running counter to the wishes of the president, who is his commander-in-chief, and to the policy of the secretury ot war, and con stantly catering to the Democratic and anti-administration element. General Miles in his annual report came out fairly and squaiely against the can teen, against the department and against tho president. In this way he won a great deal of applause from i'hitreh people and was commended in all of the church newspapers. Yet, at the lime General Miles wrote his report the canteen question had been settled. General Miles next figured In the Schley controversy. When the court of inquliy rendered Its decision he gave an Interview criticising the court and upholding Schley. Then came the Army board. It was convened for the pur pose of selecting sites for army posts wheie troops are to be quartered when not in active service In the Held. He Issued a stutement In which lie dis agreed with the majority of the board, declaring It was against public policy that at my posts should bo located near largo cities, because the It oops niuy he used for shooting down the working man. Xo thinking man would for a moment take the view that United States tinops would ever be used for overawing labor, The lieutenant gen eral followed this up with a request that he he sent iu the Philippines for the purpose of pacifying the Islands. He was going at once to terminate military opeiatlons and tesort to diplo macy. This Is the Democrat Ic position again, urn! the general unquestionably will have commendation from the Democrats anil the unil-linperiullsts. The fact that General Miles had made thin request and that it had been io nised wis it department secret until It becuineisLlost'd in some way. it cer tainly yiis not disclosed through the olllco ofctlio secretary of war. This brings us. up to the hearing befoie tho committee on military nffulrs. General Miles linji a 'perfect right to appear be fore a cptmuittee and say anything he wished. 'The public, and not the de partment, will pas-s on the ptoprlety unci good tasto of his testimony." We iiQto thesis expiesslons for what they are worth. They uie nnulti Iu responsible newspapers, If they do tho general an Injustico he has means of redress. " In any event, President IlooseveJMias been wisely counseled in his decision not to take Immediate notice of tho latest evidence of Miles hostility.- The proposition before the country which Is of paramount Impor tance from a military standpoint Is not what Miles thinks or says hut what chance there Is fop the passage of the army reorganization bill, it will not pay to complicate tliut issue by thq raising of minor quarrels. General Miles richly deserves rebuke for the Impudence of his manner before the military affairs committee. Xo matter what his opinion may he of the bll ho was considering, for tho ranking army ofllcer to exhibit disrespect for ills tni Lpeiiors in authority and to Impute to Ithem under cover of parliamentary privilege motives which he would not dare to allege openly was an act of insubordination deserving of a court martial, Hut there is na si eat hurry llun of SlifiniriMi DISPLAY.

He Is punishing himself much more sevciely than his most In velcruto enemy would ur could. He sides, there Is plenty of lime ahead. lllshop Potter says that nt the recent municipal election In Xew York "atong both sides of Fifth avenue, from Wash ington square to Central Park, only Ihlrty-elght residents remained at home to vote." The others wore skylarking about the slobe mainly on pleasure bent. Yet those absentees, we will wager, are milling the severest critics of New York city's government. It vns ever thus. TwtrMurdor Trials. ATURDAY brought to n con clusion two murder tiluls "ro mantic" In their Interest, nnd with results singularly at vuilupco. The release of Florence Hums, accused of tho murder of Wal ter Hrooks, Is hardly surprising, judg ing from the run of iho testimony In the newspapers. The effort to Identify her us the young woman with whom Hrooks was carousing shortly before the discovery of his dead body In a room In the Glen Island hotel, was painstaking on the part of tho district attorney's olllce; but Its results In spired little confidence. The fact that the relations between the murdered man and Florence llurns had been questionable, did not sufllce to convict her of his assassination. In the ab sence of tangible proof connecting her even remotely with the crime, her re lease was inevitable. It having been announced by the district attorney that no further attempt will be made to hold her for trial, there remains no ob stacle to her pioceedlng to "elevate" the stage. Upon equally slender evidence, Just the opposite result was reached at Elizabeth City, X. C, in the convic tion of James Wilcox for the murder ot Xellle Cropsey. Most readers recall that on Xov. l!0 labt Miss Cropsey, a beautiful young woman, prominent hi Southern society, disappeared myster iously from her home in Elizabeth City, and Unit extraordinary efforts were made to find her. For more than a month, there were almost dally rumors of the location of the missing woman; and It was not until two days after Christmas that her dead body was found In the river, near her home. The case against Wilcox arose out ot the circumstance that he was the last per son seen with Miss Cropsey prior to her disappearance. Thoy had been lovers nnd he had called at the Crop poy residence the night that Xellle left it. When he arose to leave that even ing at 11.03 o'clock, he asked to speak to Nellie alone in the hall. He arrived at his own home, a few blocks away, at ll.ri) o'clock. Tu that interval of time Xellle disappeared and Wilcox, when on nial, could give no satisfac tory account of his whereabouts. It was proved that Xellle had been struck on the head with some blunt instru ment befoie tier body had been thrown Into the river- but as we recall the testimony printed In the newspapers, during the trial, there was no direct connection of Wilcox with the crime, beyond the circumstantial incidents just mentioned, and no motive shown beyond the fact thut he and Miss Cropsey had hud one of a series of lovers' lilts. In tire eae of lioience Burns, con viction would not have been expected, even though pi oof of guilt had been clear and unbroken; but It Is a little disconcerting lo think thut a first de gree murder verdict can be returned by an American Jury on the scant evi dence apparent from this distance in the case of .Tames Wilcox. A pretty woman, no matter how vicious, is gen erally sure of acquittal, if iu her be half a plea of sympathy 'and man's perfidy can be Inttoduced. But the op posite extreme seems to be Illustrated too vividly in the Elizabeth City trial. A merry war Is waging between the American and ihe British tobacco trusts. It began upon tho entry of the Yankee concern Into the British retail trade. The English company countered by buying up the largest company of retailers, hoping thereby to keep the American goods out ot the way. The Yankees made an extra effort to put out attractive goods and succeeded In Inci easing their sales. Then the British trust Issued a circular offering to divide $250,001) among the retailers of the United Kingdom If they would refuse to handle the American trust's goods. Thereupon the Yankee contingent an nounced that for four years It would sell to the retailers at cost unit In addi tion divide nmong them $1,000,000 a year without asking them to boycott the goods of nny rival concern but only to give the American goods equal treat ment. Tills seems to have staggered John Hull. The English company heard such strong kicks at Its attempted hoy. con that It has been compelled to with draw It, and at last reports tho AmVrl cau company was on top nnd Intending to stoy there. All of which is very ex citing and tickling to national vanity; hut somehow- wt have tho suspicion that tho tobacco users of the United States will eventually pay the freight. Senator liatt, of New York, pi edicts President Roosevelt's nomination In 1901 practically without opposition, Wo trust for the president's sake that Mr. Piatt Is a better prophet now than ho was In the early' days ot the McKlnley boom. It Is Impossible to believe thut the. opponents ot bosslsin lb Pennsylvania would really have Senator Quay order Candidate Klkin not to run after the people had shown that they favored his candidacy, Public Opinion, Ciiumhersbuig' hand some morning dally newspaper, Is one year old. It Is receiving many con gratulations and it merits them all. General Miles' strong bids for martyr dom uro mot e than likely one pf these days to pioyo successful, What la needed of such weather us yesterday's Is a bond of continuance. On the plains, away from the miasma of politics, Nelson A, Miles hud few equals and no superiors us it soldier. s ,.

' When the American uriny took hold of Havana deaths were occurring ttt tho rate of U1.252 a year; today the rate Is 5,720 it year, which Is enough said.

Coming nearer home and consider ing the United State alone, it h found that the loifeuinptiou of sugar which In ISM vm only 22 pound.-! per capita, a in 1W)1 oer oS pound per capita. One especially striking fait shown by the kla listlM presented In thl.s .tudy U the lapidly in creasing propci tlon of the world's enlarged sugar consumption which ii xipplleil by beets. .i cording to tho llgures piesented by tlih study, beets which supplied In 1S10 less tlun 5 per tent, of the woild's i-ugar, in 1000 supplied 07 per lint, of Iho greatly inircascd consumption; while cane, which then supplied !" per cent, ot the woild's sugar consumption, now supplies but ;i.l per tent. Mated in quantities it may ho aid that the w oi Id's tano sugar supply has grown from 1,100,. 000 tons In 1810 to 2,S.VJ,000 tons in MOO, an in trea.se of ll0 per cent.; while that of beets Ilk grown fiom .0,000 ions in 1S10 to r,!MO,00) tons iu 1900, an increase of 11,80(1 per Lent. The llgure.s aboc quoted include that portion which enters into tlio world's statlstieal reionl ot .sugar pioductlon, and does not lnthide the large qiniitilles of taue sugar produced in Indii and Cliini e.clusIo!y for ironic consumption, and in .1 ccniderable number of the tiopiral countries does not inrludr that portion ot the sugar consumed at, home. Ken if these figures of cane sugar pioductlon for home lousumptiou wcie obtainable, the piodilitiun from beets would still show- n lmiih moie rapid giowth during tlio la-t half tentiiry than that from cane. Tliti, apparently, is due to two great causes: (1) rlie elimination of slieiy in the troiiks, the seat ot the pilni.ip.il sugar ptoiluotion; and (2) the intelligent study of, nnd goxermiient aid lo the pioductlon o( beet hiigar In (he Temperate 7one, e-pecially iu Kuropean countries.
