The Westhcid Horror-Arrest OF the
Cuprits.

The Westaeid Horror-Arrcsf or the
Cuiprits.
The officials of the Staten Island Ferry
out of eleven jurors of exceptionally high
character and intelligence with the guilt of
murder, were yesterday put through pre-
liminary course of wholesome discipline. Mr..
Vanderbilt, Mr.. Braisted and the mulatto
engineer were arrested early in the morning
and taken to the Tombs. The Coroner very
properly refused to take bail for their further
appearance, and for several hours Mr.. Van
derbilt, his eighty e-dollars-a-month darky
engineer and his superintendent were con-
imagine the three bewailng their common
fate. Mr.. Vanderbilt can, indeed, now say
with Sancho Panza, "Adversty makes us
acquainted with strange bedfellows." We are
sorry, however, that writ from the Supreme
Court spared this wealthy gentleman the plea
sure of spending night in one of the hideous,
vermin-haunted cells of this prison. The few
hours he would thus have spent in durance
vile would have given him valuable expe-
rience of the treatment which poorer men,
arrested on the suspicion of crimes far less
dark than that which casts shadow over his
own fair fame, are required to endure.
Still it was a great moral triumph yesterday
to have a member of the wealthiest family in
America hauled off to criminals cell side by
side with poor negro. II showed that in
its general administration, if not in its every
feature or upon all occasions, there is in this
land of realized promise but one law for both
the rich and the poor. AS to the trial of Mr..
Vanderbilt and his partners in ''criminal negli-
gence, if the Grand Jury do indeed return a
true bill of indictment, we hope that the pro-
ceedings will be hurried on as fast as possible.
The Foster case showed that the authorities
can, upon occasion, be prompt In action. Let
them be equally Jealous with this great mil
lionnaire-whose lust of gold has tempted him
into negligence" that has cost hundred
lives and immeasurable pain and sorrow-as
they were with the drunken car conductor
We do not believe that Mr. Vanderbilt and his
colleagues in guilt ought to be convicted of
the first degree of murder; but we ought to
know at once what is the exact legal character
of the crime of rsking ten thousand lives a
day at ten cents head.
