Police on the City Curs-Iiec ommendation Of
Mayor Hall.

Mayor Hall.
Mayor Hall has made good point in recon-
mending that the city police and detectives be
permitted to ride free on the city cars If the
car companies are wise they will act favor
ably upon 1t an once. It will be the means of
insuring the safety Of all who travel by our
city railroads Ladies' will then be able to use
the cars without fear of being insulted. Ruff
fans will cease to give annoyance therein, and
pickpockets will shun them as places wherein
the trade will be dangerous to their personal
liberty. The right kind Of conductors and
drivers will find the police great assistance
to them In carrying on their duty in a proper
manner, while those who are but little better
than the roughs and thieves will discover that
In future they will be compelled to be-
have themselves properly. The conviction
OF Foster was a great point gained
In rendering the street cars safer
places than they have been for long time
past; but Mayor Halls plan will do even
more-it will clinch the matter at once, and
end oil the outrageous occurrences that Of
late we have been called upon to chronicle.
The car companies owe 1t to themselves and
the public to Immediately adopt q suggestion
that is sure to produce such excellent results.
They will be saved world Of trouble and
annoyance by so doing, and In the end they
will save money by 1t. Any number of excel
lent reasons can be offered why they should
jump at the opportunity but we imagine that
they will be wise enough to carry out Mayor
Halls recommendation without urging the
matter further upon their notice or suggest
ing again their favorable consideration of so
good plan. We hope 1t will not be long
before the presence of our police will give
ample security to all those who are compelled
to use the street cars as means of transit.

TELEGRAM TO THE new YORK HERALD.

from our special correspondent in Paris:-
VERSAILLES May 28-Night,l
Via BoLoGNE, May 20, 1871.
NJ Delescluze, the Delegate Minister of
War under the now defunct Commune, was
shot by his guards and instantly killed last
night in attempting to escape.
TRIALS OF COMMUNIST LEADERS.
The trials of those Communist leaders who
were taken alive will commence during tho
inevitable, and 1t is generally believed that
every one will suffer death.
THE LAST CONFLICT.
After desperate and bloody conflict the
government forces succeeded in capturing the
insurgent positions at Belleville and Pere la
Chaise late last night. The firing then ceased,
and this morning, on the troops advancing
on the one position yet held by the
forces of the Commune, the insurgents hoisted
white flag and surrendered in body. They
were Immediately disarmed and the great re-
bellion Of Paris in 1871 had ended.
TRIUMPHAL RETURN.
The Thirty-eighth regiment Of the line, be-
longing to MacMahon's army, has just returned
to Versailles in triumph, the men having
flowers and branches in the muzzes OF their
rifles, and bearing also magnificent banner
Of red silk captured from the Communists
vINoY GOVERNOR OF PARIS.
General Vinoy has been appointed Governor
Of Paris by NJ. Theirs.
MILITARY ARRANGEMENT.
1t is proposed, as temporary measure, to
divide the capital into twenty military dis
tricts, each to be strongly garrisoned. This
| arrangement will be maintained until order
has been completely restored and the passions
aroused by the insurrection have disappeared.
LOSSES OF THE vERsAILLIsTs
Owing to the admirable plan adopted by
Marshal MacMahon for storming the barbados
held by the insurgents the Versailles troops did
not suffer heavily during the seven days offght-
ing in the streets Of Paris. The loss of the army
altogether was only 2,s95, while, according to
the most reliable estimates, the losses of the
insurgents were over fifteen times as great.
NUNS MURDERED.
1t is stated upon good authority that among
the unfortunate persons held as hostages in
the prison Of La Roquet, who were murdered,
were ten nuns.
MUTINY OF PRISONERS.
Yesterday the insurgent prisoners at Sar-
tory made desperate effort to escape. They
set fire to the straw which was given them to
sleep upon, and In the confusion which fol-
lowed the breaking out Of the flames sixty
five effected their escape. or this number
twenty -four have been recaptured.
ExrRADrr1oN.
The French government will ask the extra
dition of all the Communist chiefs who have
already taken, or who may take, refuge in
England, as under the French law they are
regarded as criminals who come within the
terms of the extradition treaty.
