that those managers were foolish enough to

Knight Errnntry i'm the Streets.

In the good old days of Amadis de Gaul
and Palmerin of England, and the other
famous gentlemen Of that stripe, all persons
in distress, dismayed, oppressed and
wronged by tyrannical foes, were rescued
and relieved by gentleman in an iron
JACKET mounted on fiery steed and hold
ing sapling under his arm for q lance.
Wandering gentlemen of that sort have left
brilliant and romantic impressions on the
common mind of humanity, and the impress
sion is so deep and sharp that it is difficult
to dissociate that kind of gallantry from the
figure of the armor-plated soldier of other
days, and more difficult still to sepa-
rate it from his name. Yet that
o chivalric and generous rescue may
be made without the armor, the lance
or the fiery steed was evidenced the
other day in our streets. All the moral
elements of knight errantry were there, but
instead of the mounted knight the hero was
only plain gentleman learned in the law,
resolute for fair play and filled with the
generous devotion that serves at any cost
of immediate convenience q feebler fellow
creature in distress. He saw helpless man
grossly misused by the police; he con-
stituted himself the champion of distress
and came out handsomely the victor. Un-

Medical and Surgical Service.

There are upward of a hundred physi-
clans or surgeons in the pay of the city
government. Some are in the Police De-
partment, and consequently, subject to the
orders of the Police Commissioners. Some
are in the Fire Department, and under the
Fire Commissioners. Others are on duty at
the Coroners' Office others at various points
subject to the supervision, more or less spe-
cific, of the Commissioners of Charities and
Correction, and there are goodly number
in the Health Department. Only these last
are under the control of an authority in any
degree fitted to comprehend the scope
of q scientific service. All the rest are
under n direction that distinguishes
but little between man with club and a
man with scalpel. 1t is now proposed at
Albany to organize here public surgical
and medical service that shall group to-
gether all the medical officers now distrib-
uted in several departments, make them
responsible to one capable head and require
of them the performance of all service in
the line of their professions wherever this
has to be performed in the county. AS the
enforcement of measure like this will
probably disturb great many men in some
what easy places it will be roundly de-
nounced; but if the subject is deliberately
weighed on rational principles we are in
clined to believe the proposition would be
sustained. II would almost necessarily be
a considerable economy.

Sergeant Thompson and Joe Coburn


The public would like to see the same
promptness displayed by police justices in
dealing with members of the police force
who are guilty of outrages against citizens
which they show in dealing with citizens
who happen to come in conflict with police
men. In the case of Joe Coburn, pugilist,
charged with murderous attack on men,
bers of the force, we see the machinery of
the law set in motion with celebrity and
effect. The accused is sent to prison and
all bail refused, with o certainty, let us
hope, of speedy conviction and punish
ment That is one side Of the picture; the
other is not so pleasant to look upon. Ser
geant Thompson, who is accused, on most
respectable testimony, Of a brutal and un-
provoked assault on poor man, is treated
with every consideration by Justice Kill
breth and allowed to leave the court on the
promise of giving bail in the miserable sum of
five hundred dollars. as though the charge
against him was trivial and unimportant.
His subordinate, who confessed to perjury
in court, is allowed to go free, the magis-
trate merely thinking that this model officer
should be called before the Commissioners
of Police to be talked to in paternal fash
ion. Now, the contrast in the treatment of
these cases suggests to the mere taxpaying
citizens anything but pleasant reflections
Are the police privileged to commit assault
and battery and to indulge in perjury at
their good pleasure? If the police JUS
tices think so they would confer a
boon ON the public by giving general
notice, so that peaceful citizens may be
able to take measures to avoid the pres
ence of the irresponsible policeman. But
it is satisfactory to learn that the doctrine
of immunity to policemen does not extend
beyond the sphere of the police justice.
Before the Grand Jury Thompson has been
dealt with without favor and indicted as
any other person would have been, and the
declaration of the District Attorney that he
will press the case to immediate trial is re-
assuring. Thompson was guilty of great
outrage, and his punishment should be swift
and severe if it is to serve rs a warning to
others of his class that they cannot with
impunity break the law they are paid to pre-
serve. The sooner this lesson is enforced
the better it will be for the safety of life
and limb in this city.

Turkey in Parliament.

In response to inquiry the British govern
ment has declared in the House Of Com
mons that it does not intend to adopt any
measures for the coercion of Turkey nor to
draw the sword in her defence it further
holds that if Turkey is bound by the
treaties of 1856 and 1S70-as England
seems to believe she is--then other gov
ernments are not absolved from the
obligation of those treaties. Here are two
points that exhibit the remarkable weakness
of the position of the government, and as
the inquiry referred to was made by Mr..
Gladstone it is probable that an assault
on the governments position will be
made at these points. Turkeys offence
the act which will stand historically
as the immediate cause Of war if war
follows-was the rejection of the law
laid down by the Powers-and by Eng
land with the rest; yet SO uncertain
and contradictory is the British policy that
it needs to be declared in the House of
Commons that England will not draw
the sword to defend Turkey in her rejection
of England's demand. Another indefensi-
BILE point is that with regard to the treaties.
All the relations of the governments
of Europe to the Porte stand on the
fact that Turkey is in a species of tutelage
to the common international will. In 1868,
for instance, Russia was ready to put the fin
ishing stroke to the history of the Ottoman
Turks in Europe but the nations interfered
and saved Turkey from Russia on the con-
dition that the feebler Power would reform
its administration on the plan required by
Europe The Treaty of Paris was the formal
record of that compact. That treaty, there
FORE has for. its corner stone this principle
of the guardianship of Europe over Turkey,
claimed on one hand and assented to on the
other for twenty years. But now Turkey
rcpudiates that relation, and yet the English
Ministry holds that there is still some
validity in the Treaty of Paris.
