There is some other reason for this delay. Vhat is it? If Mr. Adams will explain it ho will do a public service. No one holds him responsible for it. but it, is probable that he has some definite ideas upon the subject.

He should attend every meeting of the commission, and should continue to nsk pertinent questions, even if the colonel and tho architects become speechless with astonish Presbyterians at Washington. Before addressing themselves to weightier matters of tho law the Presbvtonaus at to and objected to along Newtown creek has been a great cause of tho prosperity of Brooklyn. It has been great cause of the forces which have mado Brooklyn worth living in, worth marrying in, worth having children in and desirable as a place in which to end one's days. Population cannot concentrate itself in cities and at the same time compel the industries which create and sustain cities to become tramps or jgabonds on tho face of tho earth. People oijfcneed to think on these things to reach a common sense view of them.

Most of the so fuss about Newtown creek nuisances comes from those who do not live along the creek or in its vicinity. Great mass meetings, immense indignation meetings, in fact, have been held by the people directly affected, protesting against any interference with business establishments at which the city has been driving with what the. Eagle believes to be merely a political motive, with a zeal not according to knowledge, but, indeed, with a recklessness and want of wisdom that will recoil with damage to those who have challenged the consequences. be established by further investigation.

Hewitt and Mr. Cooper, in their affidavit published in the Eagle on Friday, anticipated such an indictment. They said it would bo welcomed and coveted by the company, if a trial could be promptly had on it. They had, however, received information that no trial could possibly bo held before October. They protested against any prejudgment of the case before trial aud were confident of vindication at the trial.

Any effect expected from indictment, as a mere indictment, has thus been discounted.

Washington yesterday turned aside briefly and pleasantly for the mint, nuise and cummin of social intercourse. During the visit of the delegates to the White House, President Cleveland safely pursued in his remarks tho sure ground of the broad religious sentiment on which all classes of the people easily unite.

The merits of the matter are now under consideration in the city court, wherein the company itself is the plaintiff aud the city officials, in their personal capacity, are the defendants. It is desirable that the caso should be tried on its merits at once. The merits can better be determined by the civil suit now ponding than by any indictment on ex parte testimony, or. by the trial of any such indictment with a purpose of political punishment as a presumable prod. The Eagle's publication of the affidavit has brought to light facts which furnish a suggest ivo answer to the extraordinary statements made by tho city with references to the ments involves something of risk.

If we are to keep puce with invention we must incur so much hazard. Unless we are prepared to do it and to make the best of it we might as Veil agree to go back, practicnlly, to remote ages, and to resume obsolete and inconvenient ways of doing things. Even if we should consent to this we should not be any better off, for statistics will show that, relatively to the extent of travel, there was more of mishap and peril when people went about tho country on foot than when they rode on horseback: more than when they were conveyed in stage coaches: more than when they went upon steamboats and in railroad trains. The percentage of death and injury constantly diminishes as transportation is bettered. And they To Investigate the Handicap.

The management of the Brooklyn Jockey club has done well to ask an investigation of the circumstances attending the running of the Brooklyn handicap on Monday lost. By request of President Philip J. Dwyer and Secretary Mclntyre the matter will be taken up by the board of control on Tuesday next. The contemplated inquiry should be as thorough as an honest desire to get at the truth will permit. "With the exception of certain statements attributed to Mr.

Pierre Loril lard the allegations concerning the race have been of rather a general charncter.

The large majority of the Presbyterian clergymen aud layuieu who heard tho President would have no difficulty in applying this principle to the opening of the Columbus exhibition on Sunday. They would undoubtedly say this religious sentiment which the federal executive so fully accepts requires the government of the United Stntes, when it, gives its countenance to the fair, especially when it appropriates money to it, to insist that its doors shall bo shut one seventh of the time. This is the position upon which Senator Quay and the rest took a firm stand when the 000 bill was passed. The Presbyterian delegates, of course, would urge that this position be maintained.

They would be glad to assume, from the quoted words of the President, that he will enforce the condition attached by Mr. Quay to the appropriation, at every possible occasion. Even if the President were prepared to do this it is not clear how the occasion would offer. Beside, the way of looking this thing in Chicago is very different from the way of the assembly. If the Presbyterians do not make more haste with the matter than they have done with the Briggs case, the doors may be thrown otjon and ketit orien throughout the Why should we waste tho time nnd fret?

Cooper and Mr. Hewitt regarding the glue factory. From that affidavit it is apparent what an enormous risk of pestilence the officials of Brooklyn were seemingly willing to take (the Eagle charitably hopes in ignorance) when they stopped the operations of an establishment in which over seven thousand tons of animal matter were liable to decay if not properly treated. Had they succeeded, as they would have done but for the act of the city court, the glue factory would hove been converted into a charnel house, breeding pestilence and death in the heart of a vast population. the thousands of men who lost money on him should express dissatisfaction, if not suspicion, ovor the result.

But vague expressions are not sufficient justification for wholesale arraignment. With rare exceptions the Brooklyn handicap has been a trying and bruising contest. Only once out of seven times since the event was inaugurated has it been won by a favorite. The mere fact that Lamplighter was beaten does not constitute a presumptive case of fraud. To convict anyone of wrong doing it must be demonstrated that the rules "were violated or that a preconcerted arrangement was entered into to prevent fair and open add that the rule holds as to horse cars and trolleys.

Now, whatever statistics may show, no matter what may result from an inquiry into general averages, while this clever conclusion may be very interesting as a bit of practical philosophy, it does not fully meet the case. Leaving out the fact that as all means of work improve the safety nnd comfort of their operation may fairly be expected to advance, there are particular cases which cannot be excused by the general average rule.

The fact that there are not proportionally so many casualties as there were in old times does not, warrant looseness in dealing with them. opposite policy is the only one by which we can keep down the average.

The trolley machines are just now getting large benefit from theory as to the inevitability of a certain number of accidents, the small ness of the number upon the whole, and unavoidable necessity of keeping up with the spirit of the progress of the times. The people have consented, in view of other advantages, to give the system this benefit in full. The trolleys have come.

The Buffalo Courier has had a similar experi be correct, the court has evidently ruled that the silence of the charter or of any other legislative measure on the question of compensation leaves unaffected the power and the duty of a court of equity to enforce equity on all trustees, iucluding the trustees or Office holders of a municipal corporation, such as tho city of Brooklyn is.

The decision should prove of the highest importance in the present and for the future, TeU as in ks reference to a past transaction. It should be an incentive and a protection to honest investors and a preventive to speculators in phantom schemes seeking valuable franchises, through political favoritism, in order to force them at blackmailing prices on honestly intending and solvent companies. Every upright man in Brooklyn will be glad cording to the terms used by the Express. The Eagle is a Democratic paper. Within fessed eavesdropping is accepted as legitimate reporting an explanation of this sort will hold water.

Until then discriminating minds will be slow to accept the word of persons who visibly care more to create what they are pleased to call a sensation than to keep the public promptly and thoroughly informed. In the light of Mr. Lorillard's disclaimer it is easy to perceive how he could consistently continue running his horses at Gravesend. The only course compatible with dignity and profit, if he had been swindled out of the handicap prize, would bo withdrawal of his entire string from tlie track. Instead of doing that he has gone on, not only in the running, but in the winning.

If his horses maintain the average they have displayed since the beginning of the meeting, the peculiar to Brooklyn. Such a conflict arises in any place where domiciled popiilations have clustered around manufacturing plants. The prosecution of business on a water front is likely to have incidents really or supposedly unfavorable to the comfort or rights of home dwellers in the same vicinity. When the inquiry arises which should give way, an appeal to priority of establishment is rarely made. The fight is rather one of distributed numbers against affiliation and aggrandized interests.

Enterprise may make a locality prosperous and that prosperity may draw home makers to the scene.

Adams has been silent for a long rime, and has expressed his opinion on the various propositions made to tho commission by voting for or ngainst thein. When he did speak, however, he said something worth hearing. His inquiry when tho armory in Sumner avenue was to be completed was one which has often been in the minds of the people who pass the pile of bricks which was dumped in the street three or four years ago. There has been much comment on the delay, but we have been told that it was unavoidable. It seems that Mr.

Adams does not believe any such statement. He declared that there had been many mistakes made, a great deal of time lost and much blundering. There is no doubt in any one's mind as to the truth of this assertion. It does not take four years to build an armory, if the men in charge of the work do their duty. There has been gross neglect somewhere.

As much of the plans as are applicable to the building to be first erected will doubtless lie modified by the institute authorities quite materially and the architects will doubtless respect those modifications.

The woman, aged 90, was patient at the Flatbush asylum for the insane. She died there on April 20. The cause of death ascribed by the asylum physicians was asthenia or senile exhaustion. After removal of the body to the residence of relatives in this city, tho coroner was asked to institute an investigation. At the inquest last night the doctors who examined the remains submitted a startling report.

IlriLlsliu'a Resignation. The resignation of the Rev. Edward Brais lin, D. from the pastorate of the Washington avenue Baptist church will surprise thujjeople not in the councils of tlie organi zSrfon. Dr.

Braislin's determination has been known to the officers of the society for some mouths, but the general public has not been taken into their confidence. It is understood that the retiring pastor will make trip around the world before taking another charge. He married a wife not long ago and was absent from the city a short time on his wedding tour.

Mr. Adams deserves commendation for railing attention in so emphatic a manner to the unnecessary delay. The meetings of the commission called to consider change after change in the plans and change after change in the quality of the material used have been iio more wearisome to him than to the public. There is an impression abroad that the proper way to build an armory is to build it. Mr.

Adams referred to the Twenty third regiment armory and comparison with it is inevitable. This building was begun later than theThir zeal of the city of Brooklyn, not merely as the friend but as the bully of sanitation, has its basis in politics quite as much as in reform. Another is that the Shields law, on the lines of which this political spurt proceeds, is itself a contribution of hypocrisy at Albany to ignorance in Brooklyn, in the hopo cf a rewarding return in votes. The main lesson to he drawn, however, from tho whole matter is that people who have superfine noses should not live in cities. Living in cities means living under business conditions.

Those conditions require competitive and productive industry. Manufacturing is one of the forms of such industry.
