FOURTH DAY.
The attendance upon the last day races was
large the predictions of Old
Prob, who darkly limited at rain. The seats OPP
posite the stand were well filed, VIII lie more
teams were within the enclosure than any day Of
the meeting.
In the A class eight horses started as follows
Jefferson Belle, John Gilpn, Jerry, Triumph
Charlie b., Northern Spy, Careless Boy, G. f.
Soon after leaving the stand John Gipin rushed
to the front, closely followed by Spy Jerry and
Triumph who followed him for short distance,
but he proved too much for them, and kept far
ahead until the home stretch when by tremen-
dous effort Spy leaped after him and came under
the wire but a nose behind him, Jerry third, Tr-
umph fourth, G +. fifth, Charlie b. sixth. Care
less Boy seventh, and Jefferson Belle distanced.
BY scoring for about twenty minutes in the Sec
ond heat the horses got away together, Gilpin
giving place to Spy, who went ahead with will,
although showing some running as well as the
rest. On the second quarter Charlie b. got up
pretty well toward Gilpin, followed by Triumph
and Jerry, G.. f. and Careless Boy being far in
the rear and distanced at last. Northern Spy won
in 235, John Gilpin second, Triumph third, Jerry
fourth, Charlie b. fifth.
The third heat was started with less scoring than
the other, the horses getting away the third time.
Spy sped away with Gpn pressing him sorely to
the quarter, when the latter showed signs of Civ

Mr.. MoRRrssEY's RESIGNATION as a member
Of the anti-Tammany organization places
him in the peculiar position of general
without an army. He has been the stoutest
foe to the old organization that it has ever

readiest Of its opponents to make
peace on what he considers fair
terms, feeling, doubtless, that every per-
sonal consideration must be subordinated

THE RIGHT TO ARREsr-The law which
authorizes the arrest of women of uues-
tionable character places in the hands
of the police q power which should
be used with great discretion. In its char
acter the law is arbitrary and opposed to the
spirit Of our institutions, and its enforce
ment is to be undertaken with great care.
1t was never contemplated to permit police
men to arrest women on mere suspicion
under the provisions of the law The injus-
tice to which the two young girls arrested
under orders issued by Captain Williams,
and honorably discharged next morning by
Judge Kasmire, were subjected, cannot be
too strongly condemned If the enforce
ment of the law is necessary for the we'll
being Of the city it can be done without sub
jecting innocent people to unjust and
degrading imprisonment. 1t is the duty of
the police to make themselves acquainted
with the character of the persons they pro-
pose to arrest. 1t is their duty to do so, and
we hope the Commissioners will see to it
that no more arbitrary arrests ofinnocent
persons take place.

THE HARLEM RIVER IMPRovxMExr.-We
print elsewhere very interesting and
instructive letter from Mr.. Martin, Presi-
dent of the Department of Public Parks.
He shows that the department which he
controls has not neglected the important in
terests Of the city lying about the upper end
Of the island, that its plans of improvement
are ready and that it has already taken i'm
portant steps for their execution. We hope
Mr.. Martins letter will attract the attention
of the merchants and all others interested in
the growth and welfare Of the city The i'm
provement of the northern end of the island
requires the concurrent action Of the federal
government and Of the city, and perhaps
even the State authorities, and this can lie
obtained only by general public demand,
which ought to make itself felt this winter.
Mr. Martin says, very justly, that we need
rapid transit, the opening Of He'll Gate and
the completion Of the Harlem Canal in order
to develop properly the upper end of New
York.

The WEATHER. changes in the
weather may be looked for toward the end
OF the present week. The area of high ba-
rometer, which remained central for several
days in the southern part of the Middle At
lantic States. has taken northeastward di-
rection and is now passing over Southern
New York and New England. It is followed
by a fall of pressure which heralds the ap-
proach of rainy weather, with easterly
winds. The disturbance in the northwest,
20 which we called attention several days ago.
is now developing itself rapidly, and, al
though it makes but slight progress east
ward toward the lakes. its influence is ex-
tending far to the south. Yesterday rains
occurred along the Mississippi Valley, and
high winds have prevailed in the region Of
the Missouri River. In the Gulf evidences
Of n disturbance continue to present them
selves, especially In the eastern portion.
The temperature will continue to rise, but
will be accompanied with increasing cloudi-
ness. The weather in New York to-day will
be partly cloudy or clear and warm.

very strong Temporarily the gold market
was scene of excitement, the price ranging
from 10 Is to 113 IA, with close at

and railway investments in fair demand.

an important element of the change in the

and Russia? She is formidable on the sea,
no doubt, and her power there will prove
very important if the fate of Constantinople
is to be determined. Except in that regard
the course that England may pursue is in the
highest degree uncertain.
There is one point in regard to the war
now on foot as to which there can be no
doubt, and this is that it will be of great ad-
vantage to this country. All the Black Sea
ports will become inaccessible, and the grain
countries of the Danube and Of Southern
Russia will cease to add their great contribu-
ton to the supply of the markets Of Europe,
and the deficiency must be made up from
this country. There will be great demand
for breadstuffs, therefore, at good prices
In all probability this country will also be
drawn upon to a great extent for army sup
plies-pork, beef, clothing-if not arms and
ammunition. Thus great impulse will be
given to every department of trade. The
farmers will find an easy market, the rail-
roads will be full of business, the factories
will TEEN with orders and the money Of the
world will flow into our Golfers The benefit
to us cannot but be very great, even if the
war is restricted to its shortest possible
term, while if protracted it will completely
restore our finances. Furthermore, if Eng
land should become belligerent the Ala
bama iniquity would be finally balanced and
the carrying trade of the world would fall to
American ships. Already the change tends
in most practical way in our favor as to
credit, as may be seen by reference to our
financial reports. There is o panic in
Europe in nearly all securities, conse-
quent rise in the price of gold, and gold
here sympathizes with that rise. 1t will be
noted that our bonds do not move down.
ward in the same degree as others, and in
few days investment will tend toward
them rather than toward gold, for they will
be contemplated as the safest of all paying
securities. The advance In the price of
grain reported to-day inadequately fore
shadows the future.

Commissioaer C.mpbeu's Statement.

Com missioner Campbell's Statement.
The agitation of the water supply question
has induced the head Of the Department of
Public Works to make an official statement,
which is printed in full in to-days HxRALD,
and will be read with interest by the public.
But Mr.. Campbell persists in attributing the
scarcity of water to the fact that we have had
ON exceptionally dry season, instead of to
the want of adequate storage facilities in the
Croton water shed. He is correct in stating
that what little water we get at present is
drawn from sources quite distant from the
Croton Lake, because the latter reservoir is
reduced to mere channel, through
which the water flows to the head
of the aqueduct. If the present sys-
tenn of storage lakes had been adapted to
the growing necessities of New York the
water that was permitted to escape over
the Croton dam in the early summer would
have been collected for our present needs
But the truth is, the Croton Lake is filing
up with mud SO rapidly that in few years
it will be narrowed to its former limits and
cease to be o reservoir, unless the level of
the dam is raised considerably and some
measures are taken to dredge out the mud
deposits. The whole system has been ar
ranged with regard to the New York of
thirty years ago. We may have hundred
reservoirs in the oroton Valley, containing
billions of gallons of water, but as long as
the present Croton Lake and dam remain
as they are very little benefit can accrue to
the city from other improvements of the
wnter system.
