Wednesdays experience in the down.
town streets must prove to all who observed
it the insufficiency of those streets for the
traffic they are supposed to accommodate.
For hours on that day there was complete
jam OF vehicles in all the streets from
Broadway to the North River below Cham
bers street, in the longitudinal and cross
streets alike Heavily laden drays of every
description, express wagons, all the promis-
cuous wheeled vehicles that are to be found
in common use, were gathered by the
thousand, and fitted into one another like
the pieces Of Chinese puzzle, in Broad
way, Church street, West Broadway, Green
witch street, Washington street, West street
in all the shipping region, in short--and the
loss of time due to this fact must have
caused much arrangement in the for
warding of commodities to their desti-
nation. Much of this inadequacy of
the streets is due to the horse
cars and as much more to the
fact that about half the width of the
carriageway is commonly in use as if it
were private property. Trucks have grown
to such proportions of recent years that if
one is backed up to the curbstonc on one
side and another similarly placed on the
opposite side there is barely room for
vehicle to pass between, and street thus
becomes reduced to the width Of an alley
in which one vehicle cannot pass another
Add to this cause Of trouble the ever
present horse Car, which, unlike other
wheels, cannot deviate from right line
and is unable to squirm through tight
starting point of jam, and the picture is
complete. The wonder is that our streets
do not present this picture of an impass-
able Jam every day.

NIisapplied Ridicule.

The Massachusetts Legislature passed an
act last winter permitting women to vote
for school committees (Which are elective
by popular ballot in that State) on the same
terms as men as to age, residence and regis
tration, and on condition of having paid
taxes within two years upon separate real or
personal property, or of paying a poll tax
amounting to some dollars before register
ing. Under these circumstances thousand
women have been admitted to register in the
city of Boston for the purpose of voting tor
members of the school committee OF an ap-
preaching municipal election. The paucity
of this number-tho total male registration
being more than fifty thousands made n
pretext for ridicule by our neighbor, tho
Erening Post, which we think is undeserved.
1t strikes us, on the contrary, that 1t is a
pretty formidable expression of feminine
desire for suffrage when 80 many as n
thousand women will go to equal trouble
and expense to vote for single class Of
officers which the fifty thousand men incur
for the privilege OF voting for vast
variety ranging in dignity from Pres
idential electors down. Suppose that
special taxpaying and registering
were necessary to entitle men to vote
for the school committee in Boston, what
portion Of the City thousand would volun-

The report that the Chileans have taken
Iquique is important if true, and is indeed
very likely to be true, though it is perhaps
a trife odd that Paris, of all places In the
world, should have monopoly of the

credible now, because now, for the first time
in this war, army operations are possible
An impassable desert protects the Peruvian
territory from invasion by land, and it was
not discreet to invade it by sea while it
possessed any respectable naval force. Con-
sequently the war was waged on the sea
until the overwhelming successes of the
Chileans destroyed entirely the Peruvian
navy. AS that navy is now excluded IRON

open to land hostile expeditions for such
purposes rs the reported capture, and it is
possible they have now done this.

Counsel for the prosecution in this case
decided yesterday to abandon the point OF
testimony as to the impression of a boot
heel on the face of the murdered girl rather
than produce in court and submit to the
jury the cheek itself upon which it is pre-
tended this impression is to be seen or has
been seen. This was, perhaps, wise dis.
erection. This preserved part of the
dead woman's face, viewed as evil
dence, is q document which could be
produced in court as easily as it
could be shown to an expert, and therefore
the defence had right to demand its pro-
duction and to refuse to accept instead Of
the document an account of it given by ON
expert employed by the prosecution. But
if the prosecution could not get in the
opinions of it's expert. and had to depend
upon the views the jury you'd take Of these
prints on the cheek, it was apparently with
out any hope that this fiimsy piece of testi-
mony would help it. This attempt to foist
on the case piece of evidence which it
does not believe can stand on it's merits is
not the most remarkable of the efforts Of
the prosecution in this case.

In no other way can man realize so
quickly the wonderful increase of public
interest in athletic sports as by consider
ing the number and variety of out-of-door
games announced for to-day in New York
and its vicinity. About forty different
clubs associations, &C., promise entertain
ments, and the entries call for several
thousand participants; indeed, there are
two clubs, the Scottish-American and
the Manhattan, the programmes Of
which show more than seven hun
dred entries each. Besides the meet
ings Of athletic associations in New
York, Brooklyn, Williamsburg, Greenpoint,
Astoria, Jersey City, Newark and other
cities and towns within dozen miles of
New York, there is the great football match
between Princeton and Yale, and numer-
GUS other interesting single events, all of
which will attract crowds of spectators,
while each of the several great contests of
the day will be witnessed by thousands
upon thousands. How different is oil this
from the Thanksgiving days of ten or more
years ago, when several games, numbering
less than hundred participants, divided
two or three thousand lockers on among
them The change is decidedly for the
benefit of the community. Athletic contests
compel correct physical habits in those who
take part in them, and provide the best pos
sible safety valve for the never quiet motive
power of American youth; they are of more
real service to the temperance cause than
an equal number of total abstinence
orators. and they are continually causing
the sensible men who behold them from the
spectators seats to remember that they
have bodies as well as minds, the latter
benefiting promptly by any attention
bestowed upon the former. Every man
particularly every preacher, lawyer and
merchant--who beholds good athletic
struggle or exhibition to-day will have
something besides the blessings of the past
year to be heartily thankful for.

If the judgment of the Board of In
spectors Of Steam Vessels as to distinct
cause of calamity is of any value in deter
mining legal liability the report just given
in the case of the steamer Champion is
likely to make that catastrophe an expen-
sive one for the owners. 1t is held that
there was no lookout on the Champion; that
this was because the watch had been called
from his post by the mate to assist at other
duty, and his place was not supplied, and
that this, in turn, was due to the fact that
the ship was so short hande ed that this mans
assistance at the duty for which he was
called from the watch could not be dis
pensed with In plain terms there were
SO few men on board that lookout could
not be kept--a man could not be spared for
that important service. Economy was pre-
sumably the cause of the paucity of help
on the ship, and hat madness of economy
will now cost dear. The ship is gone
suits will lie for the oargo-ior damages in
Cured by the deaths of passengers, and it
is reported that the owners Of the Lady
Octavia will sue for the cost of repairs of
their ship. Altogether the owners Of the
Champion are likely to pay high for small
saving.

Another tragedy is added to the history
of the III" roads. Our report elsewhere
recites the circumstances of the instantane-
GUS decapitation of workman in Allen
street by the sweep of mass of falling iron,
between which and the edge of the guard
rail his head was caught. How many lives
have been lost already in the course of the
erection of these structures we cannot say !;
but between workmen killed at their labor,
passers by killed in the street and employees
and passengers on trains, the record is a
very bloody one, and is eloquent simply
and purely OF the recklessness and indiifer-
ence to simple precautions for safety of our
people at large. In this last tragedy it
appears that the victim was himself the
cause of the fall of the material that killed
him. II seldom happens that way.
