THE communications in another column in reference to the shooting of a stray dog on West Third street de uounce in terms of merited severity a piece of most disgusting brutality. When it becomes necessary to put an unfortunate animal to death there are ways in which it can be done decently and humanely. The West Third street outrage represented the very antipodes of these characteristics. Responsibility of of Public Institutions.

One point emphasized by the committee of the Baltimore Jail Board in its report upon abuses at the Female House of Refuge deserveststill further emphasis. The committee, while impressed with the fact that many of the ladies and gentlemen on the board of directors of the House of Refuge are most estimable citizens, and convinced that none of the abuses discovered at the institution would have been tolerated had they had personal knowledge of them, held that they could not be considered blameless. "It was their duty." says the committee, "to know what was going on." This point was made by THE NEWS when attention was first called to the brutality at the Female House of Kfffuge by a Baltimore grand jury some months ago. In reply to the terrible charges made in that report the directors only say they bad no knowledge of abuses. They "supposed" that things were going all right at the institution, hut they had no positive knowledge lot conditions there.

THE NEWS, at the time, called attention to this almost criminal carelessness and asserted that it was such lack ot attention to duty 'on the part of directors and trustees that was responsible for nine-tenths of the abuses in institutions of this character. This view is taken also by the committee from whose report the above comment is taken. The committee, while making its phrases as respectful as possible to the ladies and gentlemen composing the board of directors of the Female House of Refuge, plainly holds them responsible for the horrors which its report discloses. It was because of the directors 1 carelessness that these abuses were permitted to be carried on. If they had given a proper amount of attention to the institution for whose management they were responsible the poor inmates might have been saved many tortures, some of the girls driven to evil lives might have been made good women, and the reason of the poor girl who was driven insane by suffering would probably have been saved.

The directors cannot escape responsibility for these things. Men and women in such positions have certain duties to perform, and the public has a right to expect them to be performed. Persons who are unwilling to give the necessary amount of attention to such duties have so business in the directorates of public institutions. COMMENT.

AS EMPTY VISION OF JOB CBAMUKRLAIN. From the New York Evenintr Post. One of the coldest of Sir Michael Hicks-Beauhe's dashes of cold water in his budget speech was his annoncement that he did not expect to get aay money out, of the Transvaal to help pay for the war until after two or three years. This is a terrible come-down from the jaunty expectations of the early days of the war. Even in March, 1900, the Chancellor had to withstand strong opposition to his new war taxes.

"Just bor TOVF! the money," was the cry of the Ghamberlatnites; "we will get it back out of the Transvaal some day." But Sir Michael is too sound a financier to imitate Pitt's fatal policy of borrowing everything for war expenditure, and last year, as this, refused to be responsible for any such plan. In December of last year he informed Parliament that he had sent out a financial expert, Sir David Barbour, to report upon the prospect of contributions to the Exchequer from the Transvaal. Lhe unexpected prolongation of the war has prevented a fall report, but the Chancellor received some "preliminary observations" from Sir David, in time for his budget speech of last month, and these were of the.most discouraging character, indicating that the Transvaal was practically ruined, and that a considerable period must elapse after the restoration of peace before any Imperial taxation of the country would be possible. Thus melts into empty air another vision of credulous imperialism. MOMKBT8 WITH THE MU8E.

A May Impression. When the trees begin to blossom and the grass begins to grow, And the leaves, like jocund banners, are kept waving to and fro; When your voice no more is wheezy, When you left it to complain, Then it's time to take it easy--, Take it easy once again. We know that life is real, with its bustle and its din; We know the early riser is the likeliest to win; But when it's softly breezy, And yon feel the gentle rain. It's time to take it easy-Take it easy once again. We have heard those good old maxims made for nnindnstrions men, But a proverb ought to get a short vacation now and then.

Such advice is hard and freezy, It appeals to us in vain, When it's time to take it easy- Take it easy once again. --WASHINGTON STAB. The United Brethren Centennial.

Hob a Order Muiiiirr Tax Detroit, May Fully 10,000 men and boys ran riot in the main streets of this city for more than three hours. and a continual running fight with police, both mounted aud on foot, made an exciting night in the heart of city last night. The net results so far known is 12 citizens and five policemen Injured.

The names of but two of the citizens are known at present. They are Mike Waldin and Louis Cap- Hn. Both men bad their heads crushed by being trampled on by horsos ridden by the mounted police in a charge on the crowd. The officers injured are: James Tuomey, scalp cut by brick; Henry Rootf hit fin with rnhhle otnno- Thomas Murphy, cheek cut open with brick; George Moore, badly cut about head by brick and taken home in an ambulance; Barney ttoonan, hit with a brick. The beginning of the riot was on Thursday night, when Director of the Police Frank T.

Andrews, who recently superseded the old police board through the passage of the ripper bill by the legislature, issued an order to the police to allow no one to stand about the wagon of "Tom" Bawden, a local single tax exhorter, who had incurred the ill will of the police director by the extraordinary nature of his remarks on so-called wealthy "tax dodgers." When Bawden began his exhortation a crowd quickly gathered. Director Andrews supervised the work of the police in keeping the people moving. The crowd good naturedly hooted at the police and no violence was done. Last night, however, temper of the crowd changed when it was announced that Director Andrews had called on reserve officers to assist in keeping the Campus Martlus clear. The single tax exhorter came with his wagon and found the' campus jammed with people.

The police refused to allow him to locate at any particular point, and he drove from one street, to another, the crowd following. The mob frequently blocked traffic, and the police attempted to disperse them. It was but a moment before stones began to fly around the aifr and a general mixup followed, In which the foot police used their clubs and the mounted men charged. The officers fired their guns in the air and the mob returned the fusillade with bricks and cobble stones. At one time, when the mohhad gathered about the central police station at Fort and Randolph streets bricks were thrown through the windows.

In a charge made by the mounted police at this point Mike Waldin was knocked down and three horses trampled over him. cutting his head so badly that he was taken to a hospital. Officer George Moore was hit with a stone In this charge and his cheek laid open. He was taken to his home in an ambulance. The other officers were not seriously hurt.

At one stage of the riot a section of hose was secured by order of the police director and the stream turned on the crowd, but the hose was cut and the man who wielded the nozzle was driven into a saloon and pounded over the head with an iron cuspidor. Mayor Maybury was down town watching the crowd, and at one time made a speech to the people from the postofflce steps, cautioning them to do no A iolence, but stated that he was not in sympathy with the order of Police Director Andrews denying free speech on the public streets. The mob gradually dwindled to a mere handful, and the city became quiet. Brntnlly Renten by Mnxkx-il Robbem. Greensburg, May night four masked men broke into the home of William Jackson and wife, an aged couple who live about a mile south of Bradenville, and demanded their money.

They refused to reveal the hiding place, and the fiends attacked them with clubs, knocking both Mr. and Mrs. Jackson down, and kicked and beat them into insensibility. They then searched the house, and found between $200 and $300 and fled, leaving the aged couple lying insensible on the floor and bleeding from numerous cuts and bruises. When the couple regained consciousness a searching party was organized, but it Is feared the robbeis have made good their escape.

WJ-EKLY KKV1EW OF TKADK. STOCKS AND BONDS- BALTIMORE. May 10, We have had a very excited market here for the past few days, the panic in New York having affected everything financially throughout the country.

The Seaboard securities were chiefly affected, the common selling down as 23 and the preferred as low as 37. We think, however, the rise in the market today to 46.J6 for the preferred and for the common shows the underlying strength and the confidence the buyers of Seaboard securities have. Bsaboard 4's were only slightly affected selling down to and today are selling at which is only a drop of about three points. These are first-class and at 80 will pay 5 per cent. We think they are cheap and feel that we can thorougly recommend them.

The earnings of the Road are coming in magnificently and show not only the full fixed charges on the bonded indebtedness but 4 per cent earned on the preferred and the equivalent of per cent earned on the common stock. We give in detail the earnings of the system so a reader of this can pee for himself exactly what the Road Is doing. We confidently believe tbat these stocks will double their present prices within the next three years, if not before. Our market in the bond line was scarcely affected at all. Georgia Alabama Consols sold at which was only off a half point.

Hull Storm SiK'i-ec-tled Cloudbnrxt, ti nil In lint CM un Inch of Hail tin- Ground--Fears of 1.OS8 of In Virginia. Pittsbuig, May 11--A mighty cloudburst struck Tarentum and vicinity about 5 o'clock last evening and did many thousands of dollars worth of damage in a very short time.

Suddenly, without any warning, the floodgates were opened. Rain fell in torrents for an hour, barns were washed down off the bills, and in some cases were upturned against residences. Bridges were washed away, the railroad bed was washed away at Creighton and. the railroad track covered with three feet of water for more than three miles. Telegraph and telephone poles and trees were washed down onto the tracks for a long distance, and at least TOO cellars were flooded.

People were panic stricken when they saw the floods descending, and many moved their furniture from their homes. It looked as though the whole town would be washed away from the rise of water, and even on the higher grounds houses were endangered. Before the storm abated the rain turned to hail, and inside of ten minutes more than an inch of hail covered the ground for miles. Big landslides are reported from up the road and across the liver on the Valley railroad, but it is not known here just what the loss will be. as outside communications have been damaged badly.

People seem to be terror stricken. No loss of life has been reported as yet, but reports are awaited anxiously by hundreds of people who are flooded, and some of them ruined by the rush of waters. Cloudburst in West Virginia. Wheeling. May cloudburst east of Wheeling last night caused the overflowing of Peters, Chapels and Woods runs, tributaries of Wheeling creek.

At Traidelphia the Baltimore and Ohio tracks were covered with water for several hours and trains were held up. including two passenger trains. At Greggsville a little child is said to have been washed away and drowned. Between Greggsville and Leatherwood, a suburb, the wall of water came down ten feet high, taking bridges, outhouses and logs. It is feared several lives were lost.

In Wheeling the rain fall wss 1.1 inches in 40 minutes. STEAMBB PESTBOYED BY PIBE. Five- Women. All of One Family. L.oit Their Llvei Ity Drovrninc.

Houghton, May passenger steamer Bon Voyage caught fire in Lake Superior last night and was beached near the Portage ship canal. A telephone message from Red Ridge, the village nearest the spot where the steamer was put on the shore, says that five passengers, all women, were drowned in getting from boat to the shore. The rest of the passengers, all of them men, and the crew escaped in safety to the bpach. The five drowned women were members of the Altman family, of Laurium, grandmother, mother and three daughters. A fourth daughter was saved by hanging to a fender.

The burning steamer was first sighted about o'clock. She was then several miles out from the shore and was headed for the beach. The steamer burning fiercely, but was apparently in control of the crew, who did not have time to make the ship canal, but headed for the shore near Red Ridge, south of the canal. The steamer struck the bottom nearly a mile from land, owing to the shoal water. Observers from a distance failed to see the lifeboats lowered, but they must have been used to aid the passengers and crew who escaped.

The steamer is a total loss. She caught fire on the last trip from Duluth, but was saved by the crew. A Hero. That was a brave captain on the American "hip which struck a rock off the coast of New Fonndland. Everybody was in a panic except the captain, who commanded the boats to be lowered, and not a life was lost.

PINANOE AND TEADE, Legitimate Indantry 3ot Affected by the Uoliit;" of Stock Gamblers. New York, May review of trade says: One looks in vaia at this writing for any evidence that the general business of the country has been in any way interfered with by the --for the time involved--severest fall in prices in history of the New York stock exchange.

A very general conclusion reached is, indeed, tbat this convulsion is purely a "stock panic," not involving or conected with the general industries of the country in any way. There will not, in fact, be a. bushel of wheat or a ton of coal less in the country as a result of this convulsion. Speculation in grain and other staples has, however, been'check- ed by the concentration of interest upon the stock market. General trade advices this week are, in the main, rather more favorable than those of last week, mainly becaus'e of the improvement in.

crop prospects, due to seasonable rains following planting. R. G. Dun review says: A panic in Wall street does not mean that legitimate business has suddenly ceased to prosper, nor is the condition of mercantile trade and manufacture adversely affected by a violent fall in prices of securites. Throughout the entire country fundamental conditions were never as sound as at the present time, reports from nearly every city this week showing an exceptional volume of transactions, and payments promptly met.

THE PBESIDENT'S JOUENEY. at California Towns Were Paved With. Flowers. San Luis Obispo, May route of the president's train northward from Los Angeles yesterday lay through the Santa Clara valley, nestling under fog swathed mountains to the coast, where it ran for hours along the edge of cliffs overhanging the Pacific ocean. At every stopping place yesterday there was a flower show, rivaling In beauty the floral parade which the president witnessed Thursday at Los Angeles.

At Ventura and Santa Barbara the president was simply overwhelmed with flowers. Tbe carriages in which he rode "were lined with flowers and the streets over which he passed were paved with them. As he approaches his destination at San Francisco the progress at the different stops are more enjoyable and less fatiguing. A drive through the city was, in each case, the principal feature at the places where he stopped yesterday. The president was very much interested in.

the old Spanish missions, filled with historic relics, which he visited both at Ventura and at Santa Barbara. At the latter place he made the principal speech of the day. San Luis Obispo was the last stop of the day. It was reached at 7 o'clock last evening, in time for a drive through the town. MISSDTG BOY'S BODY FOUND.

"Willie McCorjaick, Thought to Have Been Kidnaped, Wax Drowned. New York, May body of 12- year-old Willie McCormick, who disappeared from his home at Highbridge six weeks ago, was found yesterday floating on the surface of Cromwell's creek, not far from the McCormick home. The father and sister of the boy identified the body. Police Captain Titus, in an interview last night, said: "At the present time I am of the opinion the boy's death was the result of an accident. There were no marks of violence on the body, as probably would have been the case had the lad met with foul play.

Then, too, if any one had thrown the body into the creek he would have first weighted it, so that it would have remained below the surface of the water. My theory is that the boy had been playing alone on the dock and fell into the water, and there was no one there to save him or give an alarm." The parents of the boy and Father Mullin, of the Church of the Sacred Heart of Highbridge, who was taken an active interest in the case, said today that they had abandoned the idea of foul play, and they believe the boy was accidentally drowned. Three Drowned While Norwich, N. May Hall, aged 65. his daughter Dora, 20.

and George Sholes, 28, were drowned in the Shenango river, south of Oxford, last evening. Their boat capsized. The body of the girl has been found. Governor Removal. San Francisco, May territorial legislature of Hawaii has passed a resolution containing a memorial to President McKinley to remove Governor Dole.

He is charged with obstructing legislation. Wall Street Settles Down to the Even Tecor of ItjS Ways, STOCKS UP WltH A 2TJSH. i p)(t aui Remilt IB a SliKe Kullure on -tbe Stock Ex- f-- Hnrrlman Snydicttte Control of Pacific. NPW York. May Wall street emerged from its gloom yesterday morning, and with growing contdence during the day, wish something like buoyant elation.

Prices of stock went up with a rush, at last, closing at about the top, and the net losses left after session pretty largely There were some clouds remaining the situation in the morning, and, some natural trepidation lest the violent collapse of Thursday should have 1 left some casualties which would not be disclosed until the clearing house sheets of the stock exchange had been made. Early in the day the official announcement wa made that the sheets of all the members of the exchange had been cleared perfectly, and that all their checks had been honored. This relieved the last feeling of apprehension, and the feverish and earnest signs which were manifest in the stock market during the first hour disapeared. Things quieted down into a steady conditon of business, such as has not been witnessed in Wall street for many weeks. The measures taken over night to clear the situation left little to fear.

The agreement to allov the shorts in Northern Pacific to settle at 150 really to the root of the crisis and wiped out the impelling cause of Thursday's panic. The announcement by the banks that Thursday's loans which had been provided by agreement among fhe leading institutions of the street, would not be called yesterday kept the situation free from additional tension. With the threatening tension removed a rebound in prices was natural and in evidence. The extent to which it ran was a surprise, and "was attributed to various causes. There is no doubt that among those who were heavy losers in Thursday's slump were many of ample resources, who viewed the situation with a sporting instinct, and a determination to recoup losses by following the market.

It was th-e popular belief that some of the western potentates, who were admittedly forced "to walk sideways" duiing a portion of Thursday's events, were again in the market yesterday afternoon in a bold attempt to recrieve their losses. The obvious leadership of the movement of Union Pacific and the Southwestern group gave ground for the conjecture that it was based on. benefits expected ta accrue to Union Pacific from a control of Northern. Pacific, a control which was still stoutly claimed, but as emphatically denied by the Hill- Morgan parties It was remarkable that the breaking of the corner in Northern Pacific by the settlement with the shorts at 150 brought almost no stock upon the market. But it evident that the contesting parties in Northern Pacific are not yet prepared to let go of a single available share of the stock.

The settlement with the shorts progressed yes- at the ofHces both of Kuhn, Loeb Co. and J. P. Morgan and it is probable tbat only the completion of the settlement will reveal how much of the purchases of stock made by the two parties within the last week can be delivered. There is a belief in the street that Thursday's panic was made unnecessarily violent by the excitement of some of the newer members of the stock exchange, many of whom are very young men.

It is supposed tbat some of these made undue sacrifices in the chaotic conditions. There was some buying back of stocks from these sources, and also by those who got out in time early in the week and wanted to get back. Today's impending holiday, it was felt, insured a period for calm reflection which must tend to clear the situation still further. It is a remarkable fact that the unprecedented violence of Thursday's upset should have resulted in not a single failure on the stock exchange. The commission houses generally were averse to accepting much new business yesterday.

About one-third of the commission house would only take buying orders from customers who could pay for them in full, and others required so excessive margins as to restrict trading greatly. The heaviest buyers came from the syndicates that have been active in arranging deals for the absorption of other properties. After the close of the stock exchange reports were current that Jacob H. Schiff had admitted that the control of the Northern Pacific road rested with J. P.

Morgan Co. Mr. Schiff's attention was called to the report and he characterized it as false. Another member of the Harriman syndicate made this statement: "We believe now, as we did yesterday, that we control the Northern Pacific road. Nothing has happened over night or during the day to change our opinion.

As for the Burlington deal, concerning "which there has been so much adverse criticism, believe it will go through without a further hitch." Kuhn, Loeb Co. do not yet admit defeat. Late yesterday Mr. Otto H. Kuhn, of the firm, did not hesitate to say: We believe we ha.v« control.

J. J. Hill, on the other hand, bow- ever, is quite decisive in reiterating his previous statements that the control has not changed." Connt Bomi Appendicitis. Paris. May 10.
