AN ESSAY ON BEEGING.

Judge Davis Decision I'm the Case of
the Wall Street Cripple.
The New York World contains the
following legal decision which furnishes
food for reflection to even our W DO.
lice authorities. Our city is full of beg.
gars who are professional tramps and
n~uisances that should be abated in some
manner:
Judge Davis has rendered a decision
in the case Of Frank Haller, the young
cripple who moved along the streets by
using his hands, his legs being disabled.
He was arrested for begging, convicted
and committed Ia the care of the com
missioners Of charities and correction.
1t was shown that he held out his hand
to several persons, who gave him money.
The policeman who arrested him could
not say that he asked for anything. His
parents sought for his release on habeas
corpus, it being argued that such silent
gestures were not begging aims or solicit
ing charity within the meaning Of the
statute "a to begging children.
Judge Davis holds that words are not
necessary to the offence. The act of
begging aims or soliciting charity is the
thing committed. I'm many instances"
be says, words are far less effective to
accomplish the end than simple acts.
The deaf and dumb man, real or pre-
tended, who stands with a placard on the
breast, With extended hat in had, ia a
solicitor of charity ss completely as
though he spoke to the passer.by, And
so is every one whose diseased or crip.
Piled condition appeals to sympathy il he
places himself in a position to attract at.
t%entlon, or passes along the street call.
ing attention by sign. act or look to his
unhappy condition, and receives from
those who observe him the charity he ia
obviously seeking. Indeed, the class of
silent beggars who exhibit deformities.
wounds or injuries, which tell plaioer
than words their needy and helpless
condition, are the most successful of
solicitors for charity; and especially
is this so when the object of aims
is q young and helpless child.
The intention Of the law is not to pun
ish such children, but to protect and pro-
vide for their necessities with tender
care, and it would be a great mistake to
hold that the statute does not include
such as by their appalling misfortuues
need do nothing but silently direct atten-
ton to themselves TO receive gifts OF
charity unasksd for in words, but really
solicited BY far more touching appeals"
Judge Davis decides, therefore, that the
police justice was justified in committing
the child, but suggested, as the parents
seem anxious to receive the boy, that the
commissioners surrender him to them,
with an admonition that if again found
begging the boy will be permanently
placed in a charitable institution.

The value Of street railroad stock can
be estimated by the fact that the portion
Of it held by the three gentlemen who
own the road, asd who are its officers,
cannot be purchased at any price. Il is
not in the market, because it keeps up
the pool and corner" OF the $40.
600 capital stock not more than forty or
nifty thousand is held by outside parties.
Much of the capital stock was sold on
the streets q few years ago at IS and 20
cents on the dollar. We are credibly
informed that some years ago. before the
present pool and combination was
formed, some twenty thousand dollars of
this stock, which was the property Of the
legislator who engineered the ten cent.
fare bill through the legislature, was sold
to n of the present owners and officers
Of the road at Is eeHts on the dollar. As
to how the legislator obtained this large
amount of stock at that time we are not
advised, but he probably purchased it as
an investment, aud then be probably did
NOT.

A New Application of the Four.
Ieonth Amendment.

The Albany Law Journal refers TO a
case recently decided by the Supreme
Court Of Maine, in which the court held
that the ex parte determination Of two
overseers of The poor to send a woman
to the house Of correction is inconsistent
with that provision Of the fourteenth
amendment which declares that no Stato
shall deprive any person Of life, liberty
or property without the due process Of
laW.P The doctrine Of the court is that
such action on the part Of the oversaers
of the poor is not due process Of law,
and is, hence, violative Of the national
constitution. The fourteenth amend
ment was originally adopted TO protect
ihe colored people Of the Southern
States against unjust and oppressive
legislation 10 respect to their civil rights;
yet it is so worded as TO pro.eeta all classes,
whether black or white, and in every sec
ton Of the country, against all legisla-
tive, executive, or Judicial action 90 the
part Of the States inconsistent With tho
rights meant 70 be guarded. In this
respect II Is universal in it's application
