A timely and inU'rcjstving talk with Colonel
Bliss on tho "Trusts" investigation and tho
necessity for legislation on the subject will be
found in another place in this paper. Colonel
Bliss thinks that the differences of opinion be?
tween tho counsel of the Bf nato Law Committee
did not limit tho scope ol the investigation,
but rather led to more thorough work. That
impression wa9 certainly not received by most
of the people who followed the course of the,
committee's investigation with care. The
necessity for laws restricting tho power of
'trust" combinations is universally recognized,
but precisely what legislation can be enacted
that will answer the purpose no ono seems able
to tell. As Colonel Bliss well says, the man
who can draw an cflicient act to compass thn
object in view now has an unrivalled opportu?
nity to display his ability._
MR. CHAMBERLAINS PLEA.
Mr. Chamberlain has driven a hard bargain
with tho State Department, but he is not to bo
blamed by .\mericans for his success. It waa
his business to get the best possible terms for
his own Government, and he has done so. If
Mr. Bayard has been outwitted and out?
manoeuvred, that is the Nation's miafortune;
bul Mr. Chamberlain is not to bo censured by
Americans for doing the. bot he could trv Kng?
land. As tho diplomatic representative of a
friendly Power ho was entitled to every courtesy
whilo ho remained in the I'nited States ; and his
??peech at the Canadian dinner in defence of
the treaty ought to be discussed by Americana
with moderation and respect. N'cvertheleas,
since he has abandoned the diplomatist's char?
acteristic attitude of reserve and endeavored
to influence public opinion in advance of tho
action of the Senate, he can hardly expect to
enjoy absolute immunity from ciiticism. Such
criticism as we have to offer will bo confined
strictly to his plea for the treaty without refer?
ence to extraneous matters of taste, lt is un?
doubtedly tho ablest and most plausible argu?
ment that can be mado on behalf of the con?
vention.
Tho treaty is regarded by Mr. Chamberlain
as "dictated by our common origin, by the tics
of blood and histovy, and by our traditions and
by all that connects us." Bight at that point
we join issue with him. The North Atlantio
fisheries were conquered from the French
mainly by the American colonists. Those fish?
eries were held before and after the Revolu?
tion as a tenancy in common. That tenancy ia
f*ommon was recognized and sanctioned by tho
Treaty of Peuce, which expressly stipulated
that American fishermen should " continue to
enjoy" tho right of fishing " where they used to
fish." Th?*?*? fishing franchises were again
recognized and conilrmoil In tho Treaty ofj
TSlH, and in exchange for the renunciation ofj
ancient rights within a designated three-milo
belt a posit ivo guarantee of perpetuity was.
obtained. Thc Americans have historic rights
lo those fisheries acquired before tho Revolu?
tion and embedded in treaty law. "Common
origin, tics of blood, history, traditions" and
"all that, connects" the two countries are ig?
nored in thc Fisheries Treaty which Mr. Cham?
berlain has signed. It docs not contain a lino
that recognizes that tenancy in common which
is not only an historic but a treaty right. Tho
Commissioners in negotiating it have ignored
what is fundamental in the American casu.
They have acted as if this vere
an ordinary question of territorial juris?
diction and regulation of coast fisheries. Mr.
Chamberlain in his speech takes this view when
he argues that the delimitation is in conformity
with the North Sea Convention; thal Canada,
ta fully entitled to the advantages of geograph?
ical position and under no obligations to ailow
her ports whieh Providence has placed in prox?
imity to the fisheries to be used ns a basis for
American operations; and that a\mericans aro
hound to concede to Canadians the application
of the three-mile and ten-mile limits which,
they reserve for themselves in Delaware and
Chesapeake Bays. The arguments are noft
valid, for the simple reason that a tenancy in
common in Delaware and Chesapeake Bays hag
never been granted by treaty to the Canadians,
whilo their geographical advantages arising
from tho dispensations of Providence in crea?
tion have been shared, with certain limitations,
with thc A meriel ns by virtue of colonial con
qTjegt and occupation with thc sanction of
treaty law. Tho American caaso is altogether
exceptional.
Mr. Chamberlain begs the question when ho
MWrtl that Canada in this treaty has conceded
everything that could bo demanded by tho
claims of "humanity, international courtesy
md the comity of nations." This ie a glittering
generalization that means nothing. As a mat?
ter of fact, thc treaty enlarges tho area of
Canada's exclusive jurisdiction over the fish
erics and legalizes customs regulations which
have recently been enforced for the wanton
j,inpose of harassing Americans in the enjoy?
ment of rights guaranteed in lftlS as "theirs
forever." Tho four rights of obtaining shelter,
repairs, wood and water aro defined in the
treaty, but thes" are not new concessions.
Those four rights foi med part of tin* ancient
fiianey in common and were never renounced.
,\ merit-ana enjoy them now under the Treaty of
1S18 by virtue of colonial occupation. The
only new privileges accorded by tho present
convention are exemption from tho necessity,
of immediately reporting at a custom house
winn a vessel arrives in port under stress of
weather, and the beggarly favor of buying pro?
visions in cases of casualty or for the hoiMWaVrd
\-ovage. Is this Mr. Chamberlain's idea of the
full ringo of " international courtesy ajar)
comity"? 'We know that, it cannot be, for in
Article XV of tho treaty are grouped the com?
mercial pii\ lieges which Canadians enjoy fre< h
in American harbors; and theso aro withheld
for purposes of diplomatic barter to forco the
I'nited States to abolish duties on fish. No
COnoemoni ci any value are made to a\merican
fishermen. The right of tiansshipmeiit of catch
acquired by the Treaty of Washington, Article
XXIX, is taken away. Commercial privileges
r < iptocally conferred from 1830 to lb30 by
the two Governments art* withheld as an offset
fvr the free market for Canadian fish, for which
Lord Salisbury was willing a year ago to grant
ia tv n exchange all the rights of the coast,
including fishing within the three-mile IHt.
There are refereooee in Mr. Chamberlain'-!
speech to political partisanship. Oe seems to
set store by the fact that opponents of the
present Administrations in Canada and the
I'nited States unite in denouncing the treaty.
(ar,:.(lian oppo-.ition implies nothing, for the
l-ibcial party there had committed itself to the
policy of commercial reciprocity, and was
bound to be dissatisfied with a treaty which did
not sanction its importunate demands. a\s for
the opposition lo tho treaty in the United StaU-s.
old-line Democrats like Mr. lYeeeot, the lion.
Richard 8. Spofford, General Benjamin Y. But
Ier and ex-Judge Woodbury have been as out?
spoken in their denunciations aa Republican
Senators and journals. Mr Chamberlain in
his own country has found it neeeMftry to antag?
onize diplomaey which he considered disad?
vantageous, ta-, the Kmpiro. He knows that il
is one, of the legitimate fund tom pf an opp,,.-i

OUR TWOTEBBY TYRANTS.
It cannot be too often nor too forcibly pressed
home in tho minda and consciences of tho
votera of New-York that they are responsible
for the Colonel Fellowses who infest publio
oflice. If every criminal whom the police
bring to thc bar of justice during thc next three
tears escapes as they have been escaping sincu
January 1-and whats to hinder '.'-it will be a
lining punishment upon the people for electing
such a man. Tho remedy for official incom?
petence and misbehavior is always at hand. Jf
the people will not exon'mo it, they have none
but themselves to blame for the connequenecs.
If they will continue, year after year, to let
themselves be bound hand and foot by half a
dozen selfish political bosses ; if they will permit
iMaurico J. Power to sit cross-legged on his
throne in the New-Amsterdam Club, and
"Dick" Croker on his in Tammany Hall,
thrones that have be^n reared by political do
vices of the most shameless and unscrupulous
sort; if they will permit these twopenny tyrants
to redueo freo government to a mero fiction!
and form, te dicker away the public trusts
between themselves with uniestr.iined impu?
dence as if the offices of Iho people were stakes
on a gaming-table,?if they choose to let this
sort of thing go on year after year, they deserve
all tho Fellowses they get.
Nobody was in ignorance of the fact that)
Colonel Fellows has neither the moral nor tho
mental qualifications for the District-Attorney
ship. The suggestion of his name for the place,
a month before ho was nominated would have
been universally derided. Ni body wanted him.
Nobody thought of him. Ile was taken up at
the last moment by whom ? Not a responsible
pally convention. Ni t hy any authorized rep?
resentative of any party's wish, but by one
individiul who has obtained the distinct ion of
being a Police Justice and the leader of a fac?
tion of professional politicians. Mr. Power told
Mr. Croker that it must bc done or he would
fight Mr. Crokers candidates, and Mr. Croki r
said. " All right, Mr. Poire**, it shall bo done,"'
and theso two individuals out of 200,000 quali?
fied voter, put Colour I Fellows ia office. What
a miserable, contemptible fare for popular
government ! Who are Maurice J. Power and
"Dick'' Croker? What have they accom?
plished for the well-being of society? Such
questions only elicit a smile, and yet the mo?
mentous fact is that, backed by the immenso
political machines which have, grown up under
tho boss system, they run the town and their
decrees are humbly registered by a party which
has no more to say about who shall be its candi?
dates than if it were made up of so mary wooden
pegs.
MK CABLE'OX THE NROBO QUESTION.
We devote our tenth pagw this morning
lo a review of tho Negro Question by Mr.
(Icorge W. Cable. We do not imagine that it
will gratify those who pioclaini that the dis?
cussion of any subject which involves tho rela?
tion between good government and the
Southern order of things is a waving of tho
bloody shirt; but we do not hesitate to recom?
mend lt to the readers of Tnr. TitincNn as one
of tho most valuable contributions made in
recent years to the solution of a social problem.
Mr. Cable has felt himself impelled more than
once to criticiio Southern institutions, and in
so doing has ruffled Southern susceptibilities.
That may be his fate in the present instance;
but it is not unreasonable to hope that many
of the people among whom he was born and
bred will recognizo in tho essay which are
print this morning a disinterested effort to
illuminato a question which closely concerns
thc safety and happiness of tlie Nation. B
contains nob a line of partisan politics, but it ii
full of sound statesmanship. It is a profound
lind penetrating study of thc present status of
the negroes at the South, how it came to be
what it is, nnd how it may be converted into
what it ought to be.
Tho statement of tho situation in which,
twenty-live years after his emancipation, the
negro finds himself is not a simple one, and we
do not recall any other presentation of the i a-'
In which his place in the Rocial economy of the.
South is so clearly defined amid the inconsist?
encies, contradictions and absurdities which
surround lt. It is no* contact and association
with tho negro which the Southern white findi
objectionable He is permeated nnd con! rolled
by the fear that by some action or neglect oj
his the negro shall be enabled to take tho first
step toward an equality which can only result
in " a hopeless wreck of public government and
private society." This apprehension is the teas
by which every statute, custom and impulse
is tried; lt is the key to the enigma. Servility
is the price which the negro is compelled to
pay for peace and good-will; nothing more,
nothing less. This is not an original deduction'.
but Mr. Cable states it with new force an'"!
brings it into new relations. Nor, though he
avoids regarding it from the partisan point of
v'ew, is it Insufficient to account for thc vio?
lence and'fraud by which the South was made
and is kept solid for Democratic miseovomment.
Tn tho latter half of his argument Mr. Cable
demonstrates the groundlessness of this dom?
inant apprehension. Ile shows thal there is no
necessary connection between public equality
and social selection ; that thc full enjoyment
Of his civil rights by the negro is not only con?
sistent with but essential te th" permanent,
supremacy of morality and intelligence; th:>.t
thc elements of degradation have no natural
cohesion and can be solidified only hy BOBtt srch
extraneous pressure as tho tyranny of white
ever black now furnishes. He distrusts the
optimists who say that time will do all that is
needful, and those who soc a solution of the
problem in the growth of a New South. It is
to a complete renunciation of a false theory,
tis a condition precedent to any adequate pro?
vision for the maintenance, and growth of in?
telligence, that he looks for an escape from
tho existing situation of disgrace an(] ,]nn(rrr.
Mr. Cable understands the Southern temper and
the obstacles which it imposes. His tone is not
despondent, but yet he does not convev the
impression that he already seoa the dawn of a
new ora, nor ask his readers tn share n faith
which he well might wish were stionger.
A CONQUERORS COFFIN.
An arcli-fiological discovery of great impor?
tance is announced from Constantinople. The
sarcophagus containing the ashes of Alexander
the ('nat is reported to have been unearthed
in the rtiins of ancient Sidon or modern isaida.
K.vavations have been marie in the necropolis
of tho Plnenician metropolis at irregular in?
tervals since IMO. and thc collins of ancient
kings arida gnat quantity of pottery have been
found. The disclosure of the n?trcophagujj ofj
Alexander late Great not only exceeds in
archfT'ologiial interest any of the previous
discoveries in those ruins, but even rivals the
royal mummy finds near Theiler, by which the
Pharaohs of the bondage and of moro am i* nt
peritxlt have boen trtnsfi rrt-d from ravrn
\OBthS to what is now the Beet int.'i"-1 in ?
? uriosity-hhop of the world, the Mu,, mn of
Boulak. As those mum nm 1 were carried from
one Jtis-lng-placc to another by those who rev
them from tho hands of tomb-pillagers, so tho
body of the conquering monarch may have been
taken to isa ida for secret reinterment when its
original resting-place- was in danger of deawora
tion.
Alexander died in Babylon either from the
effects of poison or more probably from a pro?
longed debauch. A week passed before his
body was interred ; and two years were occupied
in preparations for the final obsequies in Egypt.
The master of tho funeral ceremonies was
Andre us, who was instructed by the governors
of tho kingdom nnd the generals of tho army
to bury tho dead in the temple of .Jupiter
.Amnion in the Libyan desert. This was tho
ancient fane toward which Alexander had
marched with a mighty army through the
deserts after founding the city which bears his
name. The priests of tho tcmplo had pro?
claimed him to be tho non of Jupiter Amnion,
and his ilattorcjs aftf-r death insisted upon
carrying hi* ashes to his father's house in tho
heart of tho Libyan waste. Ptolemy set out
from Egypt with his best troops, met the mag?
nificent funeral procession in Syria, and pre?
vailed upon Aridirin to modify tho arrange?
ments for burial. Alexander was buried with
great pomp in Memphis-, and not long after?
ward the remains were carried to Alexandria,
-ii hero a magnificent temple was erected nnd
all thc*honors teadered by the (indents to demi?
gods were paid to him in his own city.
There has been miali uncertainty in modern
time* respecting tho uite of the conqueror's
tomb. One or two mediaeval writers referred)
to tho mausoleum as one that could easily bo
identified in j\lexandria as late ns the four?
teenth century, but no mention was made by
theta of (he sarcophagus. Tf the discoveries
at Saida are fully confirmed, thn most natural
hypothesis that ran be advanced In explanation
of tho removal of the coffia to Syria is that
which we have already suggested. After tho
days of thc Ptolemies Alexandria was con
qrjered by Arabians, Persians and Moham?
medans, and previous te one of these numerous
incursions the sshea of the great monarch may
have been secretly removed for reinterment in
Syria. ____________ i
777/7 FEW AOAINMT THE MAST.
Tho Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers
has had an honorablo and uinquo reputation
among labor organizations. Its conduct had
been on tho whole so judicious for years, and
its demands so mmlerate, that it had gained
moro of public respect than any other labor
organization lint according to a member,
whose statements were published on Saturday,
tho tendencies of the order havo radically
changed, its conservative influences have, been
crippled, the less worthy members have gained
control of tho order, and it has started on tho
path trodden by so many labor associations,
which leads through selli*.h disregard of tho
truo interests of labor tu final overthrow. In
i ommoiiting upon thc statements of this mem?
ber of the Brotherhood, it must perforce ba
assumed for the moment that they are correct,
because they entirely fit and explain all tho
facts known np to date, some of which aro not
yet explained on any other theory. If it should
hereafter appear that these statements are ia
any respect erroneous, the conclusions to which
they bad may require modification.
Formerly tho organiwition was exceptionally
conservative in entering upon strikes. Tho
Chief, slr. Arthur, had a veto power which was
in essay ea-cs ariselj exercised. Bot in tho
Burlington case a strike was ordered for quos
t finable reasons, and apparently in hostility to
the principles which Mr. Arthur had often
avowed. The Brotherhood had claimed to)
encourage thn ambition of workers to attain
higher compensation by BopeiiOT excellence;
nmv it has based a strike on the demand that
the best and the worst engineers shall be paid
alike. Fer years the Brotherhood was under?
stood to reoeive no member until he had been
nn engineer for a full year, thereby recogniz?
ing a ililTci'eniv between experienced and un?
tried meit. Now it demands that any man. the
instant ho becomes an engineer at all, shall
receive as high a rate of compensation as tho
oldest and most experienced can earn.
According to the statement made by a mem?
ber, the younger '? fighting'' element has gained
control, lt has deprived Chief Arthur of tho
veto power, and left him only a single vot-o
with the grievance cnnimitteo of the roads in?
ti re-ted in deciding whether a striko shall hal
ordered. This is no strange thing. In most
labor organizations, unhappily, the younger
men nnd those who have not, tho responsibilities
Of a wife and family, or who do not regard thoso
ri'spon.-ihiliiies, sooner or lalor get control.
Now a dozen or Aftern members of a grievance
committee on any read, chosen by the numer?
ical majority of members on that road, meet
with Chief Arthur, and if one more than a
majority of them vote for a strike, he is out?
voted and ova powered,
The object of this strike ls to grasp for en?
gineer* a monopoly of the employment, and to
prevent the promoi ion of firemen. It was found
that tho companies all preferred to promote
their own firemen, when they became qualified
ns engineer*, instead of hiring men from other
loads. This was natural, because the firemen
hid learned Ute road and its peculiarities as
veil aH the duties of engineers. But the
Brotherhood found that this did not give en?
gineers as complete a monopoly as they wanted
[f any engineer was discharged, whether for
incompetency, bad habit* or insubordination,
lie found it difficult to get employment because
c'.her roads preferred to promote their firemen.
Tho demand that cl deification of engineers
shall '>e abolished, it is now stated, is intended
to break up this state of things, to chock tho
promotion of firemen, and to leone the prefer?
ence* for engineers who are out of work.
This statement, unhappily, fits tho changed
conduct of the organization in the Burlington
and Quincy ease. If it proves true, tho*
Brotherhood has begun thc name warfare
a,.-ain>l the rights and interests of all labor, for
the benefit of a few, which so many other
organizations havo waged to their own destruc?
tion.
