Another Heavy Snow Storm-R pid
Transit.

Our heavy snow storm number three, for
this Winter OF unexampled severity, has de-
scended upon us while yet most of our streets
are buried under the drifts and shovelings of
that first terrific storm of December. We
have thus the Accommodations in our crowded
against in our enormous freight and passcn-
ger transportation, up and down and across
the city. Our means of coming to the lower
end from the upper districts of the island and
of getting back again, wholly inadequate
to the public necessities at the dead low water
Of business in midsummer are now simply
ridiculous compared with the demand. "Rapid
transit from the old city Of New York to the
new city is now to be had only by that hitherto
much derided one-legged elevated railway Of
Greenwich street and Ninth avenue Since
December, however, this one certain and
speedy line of communication between the
Battery and Thirtieth street has established
the fact that we need not waitfive six, eight
or ten years for the general relief OF the city
in this matter of rapid transit, when by an en-
larged elevated railway system, on iron col
within six months. The means Of general
and immediate relief are at hand if our prop
erty-holders and taxpayers will only take hold
OF the subject with the determination that
something shall be done. The success of the
one-legged road indicates what may be done

A CHANCE FOR SPEEDY JUSTICE Recorder
Hackett presided yesterday in the Court of
General Sessions, and, in conformity with the
law of last Winter authorizing the Judges of
that Court to hold double session whenever
in their judgment the public interests re-
puired it, he directed the Clerk to enter an or
der for an additional panel Of jurors, returna-
BILE next Monday, for the purpose Of double
Court in February. This will probably secure
The trial next month Of all the murder cases
now accumulated on the District Attorney s
hands If this can be secured and the guilty
persons be brought to speedy punishment we
may hope for diminution of the ruffianism
and lawlessness which have recently made life
80 cheap. We commend the action OF Recor-
der Hackett. Now let us have the terrible
example of general hanging of all the con-
victed murderers on the same day. if possible,
and then peaceable citizens may hope to walk
the streets in safety.

But we believe the Voz, in its haste to strike

took up for Spain. The Spaniards and Cubans
may be savage in war. yet, from their preten-
sions to civilization otherwise, we submit that
the disgraceful nature of their barbariies is
made doubly apparent and shameful

The Policy GAME BY IMPEcUNIoUs Con-

becoming almost as notorious as the well
known policy triplet ALA. The former
is Hoax Ames talisManic enumeration of the
amount paid certain impecunious Congress-
men on their policy Mobilier checks-in other
words, policy checks modified. Now what a
pity and shame it is that so many hitherto
respectable gentlemen should sell themselves
for the paltry amount of three hundred and
twenty nine dollars, when they might have
gone into any policy dealers shop in Sullivan
or Thompson street and by lucky hit on
''gig' come in for the handsome percentage
of two hundred to one on their investment
This would have been q better dividend than
that they received on their Mobilier or Pacific

The Widening of Ann Street.

Comprehensive Public improvements
The Widening of Ann street.
The growth and necessities of New York are
suggesting several comprehensive schemes Of
public improvement which are of vast impor-
lance to the future interests of the city, and
which claim the earnest advocacy OF all intelli-
gent and far-seeing citizens. A broader view
is being taken of our public wants, and with
thoroughly recognized city government, under
men of energy, enterprise and liberality there
is no doubt that the metropolis will be speed
lily aroused from the lethargy in which it
seems to have lain during the past year, and
will be pushed forward vigorously towards
the accomplishment of the magnificent destiny
in store for it. Rapid transit is now acknowl-
edged to be an affair in which the people are
interested more than the spectators and lob
byists, and there is some prospect of the sue
cess of the HERALD's proposition for two
viaduct roads to be built by the
city. The completion of the fine boulevards,
which have remained stagnant for the past
twelve months, and the improvements in West
chester county, will receive a new impetus as
soon as the city departments are harmonized
and the powers and duties of the several de-
partments and officers properly defined. The
dock improvement will also be prosecuted
without vexatious Interruptions, and many of
the desirable works contemplated by the old
Tammany leaders will be revived under honest
management and more promising auspices
The lower part of the city, which so impera-
lively needs relief, will not be neglected in
this general revival of enterprise and energy.
A movement is on foot to widen Ann street,
the particulars of which are given in the arti-
cles which we publish from the columns
of two of our contemporaries. The plan
is a comprehensive one, and deserves con-
sideration. It is certain that Ann street must
be made thoroughfare capable of draining
the lower part Of Broadway, and when the
new Post Office is open for business it will be
impossible to allow the railroad lines to con-
tinue to use the end of the Park as terminus
1t is proposed to make Ann street railroad
avenue eighty or one hundred feet wide, and
to run it through to the river by way of Beck
man street. Whatever plan may be eventually
adopted, it is certain that Ann street must be
widened The public necessity demands it,
and the Legislature should pass on act render
ing the completion of the work certain. The
improvement would not only pay for itself in
q few years, but the increased valuation of the
property would be more than equivalent for
its cost, even if the whole expense should. be
paid by the city at large.

The Central Asian observation-disclosures
Of an Amicable Settlement.

II the latest London reports prove to be
well founded we are little likely to hear much
more. for the present at least, of Anglo
Russian trouble in Central Asia. According
to cable despatch which we print this morn
ing Russia has made q proposal that q
neutral zone be established between whatever
territory Russia may choose to make her own
and Afghanistan, and STIMULATING, at the same
time that the independence and neutrality of
Afghanistan be guaranteed. This, it can
hardly be questioned, will satisfy the British
government, for from the first the British
government has steadily adhered to demand
tantamount, in all essential respects to the
proposal which, it is now said, Russia makes.
1t was understood four years ago that Mr.
Forsyth's mission had accomplished this
result, viz, that Russia had agreed to
the establishment of neutral zone between
Afghanstan and any new territory which
she might acquire, Great Britain consenting
to allow Russia to proceed in her career of
conquest unchecked. Later, it seems, mis-
understanding arose regarding the terms of
the secret arrangement brought about by Mr..
Forsyths mission. The boundary lines of the
neutral territory were either imperfectly
sketched or imperfectly understood. Hence
the mission of Count Schouvaloff particular
friend of the Gar, to London Hence the cor.
respondence by telegraph between st. Peters
burg and London Hence, too, the emphatic
