7yE PERJTRY c0yTJcrTOX.

Little surprise will be elected 10y the verdict
cOuyicting DR.. Lambert Of the crime Of per
jury. The affairs of the company on which IA
was president, bear palpably the stamp Of in
territorial fraud. The line OF defence that was at
first attempted in this case, was similar to that
employed IN the trial of the Security Company's
presidcnt-that the act Of signing false state
ments was merely perfunctory; that the real
condition of affairs was not known to the
president Of the concern, and that he took 10
intentional share in the Encouragement This
proved a weak defence for Mr.. Case, but for
DR.. Lambert 1t could not stand moment. The
ingenious bookkeeping of the American Pop
ular, by which thousand policies appeared on
the books. though never issued to applicants,
and worthless checks did duty as cash in
annual statcmcuts-such things as misht
be expected in thrce-volumc novel,
but seem an oXagCcmt0n in real life
things worthy of Montague Tigg or Oily
Gammon-of these it was impossible to sup
pose that DR.. Lambert was ignorant. On the
contrary the more probable supppsition is That
they were the offspring of his fertile brain
Consequently there has'bccn an attcmpt i'm
this defence to justify the hugccrmuggrring
Of accounts. II would appear that there was
some hope on the part Of tie defence that

tive with q jury. The notion that
cash and assets could be manufactured
ont Of nothing, by some process Of exchang-
ing one form of baseless security for another,
or 10y borrowing good securities and return
them-this notion was actually brought
forward in court as if it wcro re-
atty OF piece with the curious theories
that were put forward during the ex-
irtencc of the company, it would be laugh
able ii the matter wee not so serious. If men
could be made to believe that by measuring

their eyes and hair, and by like obsery-
atons on their ancestors, the length
of their own lives could be foretold, and they
could he divided into separate classes as TO
probable mortality, it was not too much to
assume that they could also be made to be-
lieve that cash could be made out OF nothing.
If if were not that similar confusion as to
the creation of securities and cash exists among
many of our countrymen who support the
greenbacll theory, the excuse might be made
for DR.. Lambert that the whole business
from end to end has shown symptoms
very much like insanity. There was
indeed a method in his madness, but even the
method was askew. The remark attributed 10
Superintendent Smyth. when DR.. Lambert pro-
posed to measure his skull, would serve Tor
summary of this entire matter: Doctor
"vou might better apply your calliperS
10 Your cash-boOI." How far the
confusion of mind which Dr. Lambert's
management so successfully impressed upon
his associates and the policyh0lders, was
TART of his own mental constitution, 1t Is dlli-
cult to say. The most charitable view OF the
case is that while he was deCeiylng Others
DIR. Lambert was self-deceived. Bat 1t Is
probably now too late to enter the plea of in

LILLE RARcLAY SIRkEr CALANITK.

There will be no lack of explanations re-
specting the boiler explosion, the fire. the
iniurics and loss of life that took place
Yesterday afternoon in Barclay-st. Occurring
in daylight. in a crowded part of the
city, and counting its victims by the
score. this calamity in all its details
should contain nothing obscure. Boiler
explosions are never, in the proper sense
of the word, accidents. The irighttn
effect of this one is chiefly result OF
the destruction of the buildng by the eX-
plosion itself: the fire which followed caused,
il is hoped, a smaller proportion Of death and
injury.
Among the chief points to be investigated
will be what restrictions were enforced as to
the manufacturing business carried on IN the
buildng; how much steam the boiler was
allowed to carry, and how much it was
carving. The event has proved that
the risks of the manufacturing work
were enormous; that life and property
were in continual peril there. What safe
guards there were, and what precautions were
enforced, if any, by the authorities, should
now. though too late be definitely asceftaincd'
OF course, no precautions could be taken that
would enable an ordinary buding to withstand
the shock of such an explosion, but it is worth
while to find ont whether due provision was
made for the safety Of those in the building
in case of fire breaking out below. Evidently
it was a case for unusual precautions through
out: whether there was even ordinary care
seems at present doubtful.
4 painful uncertainty as to the num-
bers that are killed yet prevails. The
ruins are too hot for examination. Had
it not been for the frishtful experience
of a contrary possibility in the burning
of the Brooklyn Theatre, the hope would now
be expressed that, as few lives are yet known
to be lost, the actual number may be small.
At least twenty-n persons have been injured,
many of them severely.

THE TNIOY DINE SECURE.

The announcement, published yesterday, Of
the reorganization of the Union Dime Savings
Bank. by the retirement OF large number of
its trustees and the election of new members to
the Board. ought to end all doubts as to
the future of that important institution. The
examination made by the Bank Department
did prove the bank to he solvent, but 1t
proved also that it was solvent not so much
because OF its management as in spite OF II.
But IN examination was not necessary to
reveal certain things which have been
plainly set forth in the annual reports
of the bank. Its salaries have been
extravaSaut, bringing its expenses up to such
a figure that, though the seventh in the amount
of its deposits among the banks of the city, it
stood second in the amount of It's eXpcndi-
lures. There was niSmanagcment in other
matters. Many brown-stonc houses which the
bank owned brought no income whatever,
and its interests were neglected in various
ways
All this the bank survived, but an admins
trltOn Of a different order became absolutely
necessary. 1t was certain that 1t would not
long remain solvent if the old way of doing
things was continued; and 1t was not reason
able to expect that the men who were
responsible for these abuses were the
best men to rectify them. The reor-
ganzation of the Board of Trustees, which
Mr.. Lamb has enforced, was, therefore, the
only sure way of reform. The men who have
been elected to fill the vacant places are
among our bcst-known citizens. Postmaster
James, II. X. Thurber, William A. Cole, Presi-
dent of the Produce Exchange; John W..
ard, of Caswcll, Hazard & Co., are
men whose names alone will strengthen
the bank. The 2S,000 depositors Of the Union
Dime Savings Bank may feel confident that
its expenses will now be reduced and it, in
come carefully husbanded and the public will
be relieved to know that an important bank
has been rescued from danger, and estab-
lishcd on a sure foundation.
