From all parts of the country
come the news that the Democratic
press is wheeling into line for Gree

it a hearty support.

The Centre street Fire-A- Cruel and
Disgraccful Outrage.

The bodies Of the victims of the Centre
street fire still remain buried beneath
the ruins, while city departments and
public officials argue and squabble as to where
the power rests to order the removal of the
debris and the recovery of the remains. Rela-
tives of the hidden dead hang heartbroken
over the snow-covered mass or plead beseech-
ingly to the authorities to restore to them at
least the charred and blackened bones of those
who were so dear to them in life but still the
ruins remain where they fell and the hands
of the officials are bound helplessly in the
bonds Of red tape. There are those who
would gladly undertake the work the Police
Department, the Health Department, the De-
partment of Public Works, would either of
them set vigorously about the humane task,
without moments delay, regardless of au-
thority, but for one fact. They have no
money, and the cold shadow of the Finance
Department falls upon them and warns them
that any work performed in the cause of hu-
manity, if not duly authorized by law and
duly approved by the financial head of the
government, will not be paid for
The story is sickening one and disgraceful
to Christian city. A fire occurs, and seven
unfortunate souls perish in the flames and
are buried beneath the burning ruins. The
police are applied to by the sorrowing rela-
tives of the victims to unearth the remains:
but the police find that they are not author
lied by law to do SO, and they have no fund
that can be used for the purpose. They would
gladly undertake the work, but the Comp
troller would be certain to refuse payment, and
their hands are tied. If the Comptroller will
sanction the expenditure they will set about
the task without delay. The Health Depart
ment is approached, but the same reply is
given. The Department Of Public Works is
sought, but there is no obstruction to travel or
business, and SO similar answer holds good.
The owner is begged TO clear away the fatal
pile, but if he touches it he vitiates his insur-
ance. The lessee receives a similar request;
but he cannot undertake the work-it is the
business of the owner Comptroller Green is
the obstruction get his promise not to throw
a captious technical obstruction in the way of
payment and the work can be done at once

The leo Flood in tho HIississippi-
Prepare for lee Gorges An the
Rivers.
The kilograms last night from the West give
alarming tidings Of the rising food in the
Mississippi. The SHOWS, which began ON the
18th instant in the Upper Valley Of the ''Father
OF Waters" were heavy and prolonged. andt he
indications are that they viii be dissolved
without delay. If the Winter season were
more advanced ws might hope that the cold
would be sufficient to retain them in the
crystalline or solid state but the appear
ances are now against this conclusion. At
eight o'clock yesterday tho thermometer in
Western Minnesota had risen thirty degrees in
eight hours, and at Ave o'clock in the after
noon the temperature had increased nearly
twice as much, making total change of fifty
four degrees, Fahrenheit, in sixteen hours.
The change in the barometric column from
high to low pressure was also indicated,
and the same conditions prevailed south
ward and eastward Of Minnesota to
Keokuk and Davenport The tenn
perature also in the Upper Missouri
was above the freezing point. The freshet at
Memphis reported as SO high and destructive
in the morning and at noon, had increased in
the evening, and at fivs O. clock the river at
that city had risen forty flour inches in the past
twenty-four hours. At Cincinnati the Ohio
had risen nearly foot and in o few hours
promises to add its vast volume of ice and
water to the already surging current of the
Mississippi. Should the Missouri add its
floods the devastation south of Cairo will be
immense.
The evening reports indicate no rise in the
Ohio at Pittsburg, and it is probable the foun-
tains Of the Upper Ohio are still sealed by ice.
But with the eastward advance of the low
barometric conditions, and the high tempera-
lures from Iowa and the Far West, they must
soon be unlocked. An immense amount Of
snow is known to have fallen in New York and
along the Alleghanies and it is not improbable
there will be considerable volumes in all the
rivers running westward to the Ohio as well
as eastward to the sea. If the Winter were
more advanced the danger would not be SO
great; but no reliance can be placed upon the
non-dissolution Of the heavy SHOWS Of the past
week. It may be well for the cities lying on
the Hudson and the Susquehanna to secure
themselves against all possibilities Of heavy ice
gorges.

to the rescue, but night comes on and no an
swer is received from Comptroller Green. So
the dead must lie rotting through the Sabbath
in their horrible tomb, and the survivors must
continue to sorrow for their double loss.
We are astonished that this outrage upon
humanity should be suffered for single hour
in civilized community. The victims are in
humble life, and the apologists for the Fifth
Avenue holocaust may on that account regard
the recovery of their remains as a matter OF
little Importance But the dead of Centre
street ara as dear to the hearts of relatives and
friends as are the dead Of Fifth Avenue; and
we do not believe that any red tape wound by
the Finance Department around the arms OF
the city government would delay the removal
of the ruins of q Fifth avenue mansie0, if they
covered the remains of six or seven OF the
wealthy residents of that locality. We call
upon the Police Department, as the best pre-
pared and most active, to do this humane
work at once, on this very morning; to put all
the force necessary from the Street Cleaning
Bureau on the job, and to demand the payment
Of the necessary expense or to charge it in the
accounts. of the Bureau. We should like to
see what public officer would dare to repudiate

ENGLISH AGRrCULruRIsTs. Ts.-Speaking OF q
late London meeting in behalf of agricultural
laborers and better wages, the Standard urges
that the proper cure for the grievance is cmiga-
ton. 1t advises the ill-paid farmers to carry
their labor where there is large demand for it
and land is to be had for the taking. Pointing to
the colonies it says, 'There is your heritage"

The Woman Suffrage Movement 4
ENGLAND.


The woman suffrage question has begun to
ripple the surface of political life in England.
The John BuA an ardent High Church and
tory journal, lately said editorially: be-
lieve that the tory party will cordially sup
port the claims of women, themselves house-
holders and possessors of property, TO the
electoral franchise, believing that the right 10
vote should be given with regard to property
and not TO SEX The article in the John Bun
has given rise to much discussion, the Standard
adopting the suggestion and warmly encour-
aging the new idea. On the other hand. the
Daily Telegraph is furiously opposed, and puts
the question, "Why should not new cleo
tions turn on green tea, double perambulators
or scarlet fever of . malignat typs9" The
Daily Telegraph, in the heat of its rage, uses
language which does not speak well for its
gallantry. This is not well: :-''Votes and sur
gerry are equally desired, simply because all
daughters of Eve must by their nature long
for forbidden fruit" Later the Pau Mall Ga
sette has taken up the cudgel, and, among
other things, tells the conservative party that
if they adopt the platform of woman suffrage
'it will bring immense discredit on party con-
sistency." It is pretty little fight as it
stands. 1t argues, we think, great poverty of
ideas on the part Of the conservatives If they
have no grander cause to champion than that
of woman suffrage, they have but small
chance to succeed in putting down the Glad
stone Ministry. Mr.. Gladstone can, with
much more consistency than Mr. Disraeli
adopt the woman suffrage question.

q letter 10 the broadway BANK, the designated
depositary Of the city and county moneys,
forbidding that bank to pay the Chamberlain
any interest whatever, directing that the
interest accruing on the daily balances should
be placed at the credit Of each account and
that the amounts thus credited should be
reported each month to the Comptroller The
bank was further notified that no payment of
interest would be sanctioned by the Comp
troller, except made on warrant signed by the
Comptroller and Mayor, and, where necessary,
Comptroller Green, if competent to fill the
Office he holds, must have known at the time
he made this singular order, first, that if pos
sible to be complied with it would lead to
confusion and discrepancy between the books
of the depositaries, who added interest to the
several separate accounts, and of the Cham
berlain, whose entries would not show any
interest, and next, that the money accruing
for interest could not be drawn as he proposed
on any form Of warrant prescribed by law
The arrangement could only be made between
the Chamberlain and the banks, and paid by
the former, as it had been paid, directly into
the city treasury
In January, 1872, Chamberlain Palmer mott
fed Comptroller Green of these facts, ten
dered him the interest on the treasury balances
and proposed, if he would withdraw his pro-
hibitory letter of December to the designated
bank OF deposit, that the checks for the
amount of interest should be made ont
directly to the Comptroller himself instead of
to the Chamberlain In place Of complying
with this request Mr.. Green on February 3
again wrote to the Broadway Bank reiterating

letter, and adding, "As no statements of
