to hold them until they are stopped by

The New York Papers Oh the
Brooklyn Bridge Disaster.

Times "The truth is that the pas
sengers across the bridge who, accord
ing to its plan, are to occupy three of
its roadways, have since the premature
opening been crowded upon one. 1t
must now be plain to the managers of
the bridge that it was Il tragical blum
der to open the bridge at all to public
traffic until all parts of it could be
opened"
Herald ''Without doubt the causes
of the disaster are these :-First-the
narrowed passage at the cables, which
necessitates a jam at that point and
must lead to confusion when the crowd
is great Second steps, the APP
prOach to which from Brooklyn is IA de-
scent, badly managed, so that if there
is Il closely packed moving mass the
first step is reached without notice and
Il fall is probable. Third insufficient

on the bridge, aud what caused the
loss of life after it was started One
and the same thing-a steep and I'M
guarded stairway. If the stairway had
not been there, there would have been
there would have been no panic. Fur
thermore, if panic had started from
any other cause, and the stairway had
not been there, the chances for loss of
life would have been small"
Sun "Imagine Il lane or a passage
way more than Il mile long and fifteen
feet six inches wide, narrowing twice
to thirteen feet, and containing two
flights of stairs eight feet high and
fourteen feet wide, and into this lane
put four thousand persons, three thous-
and going in one direction and one
thousand in the other, and you have
the bridge pathway as it was that af-
ternOon. Any unusual circumstance
that attracted the peoples attention
must cause the lane to become clOgged,

of escape to other parts of the bridge"

Harvard SnubS Butler.

There has been no matter of late that
has created more interest and comment.
not only in Massachusetts but in other
states, than the refusal of the board of
overscers of Harvard college to give
the degree of Ii. ID. To Governor
Butler.
The government of Harvard consists
of three bodies -the corporation. the
faculty and the overSeers. The first
l. the legal organization the faculty is
composed of the officers of instruction
and government: and the oversecrs
are the president and treasurer of the
university, eN-otiicio, and thirty gentle
men elected by the graduates. This
form of government is unlike that of
any similar institution in existence.
The method of comforting degrees is
for the corporation to recommend
granting the degree, and the overseers
approve of or reject the proposition.
At "A recent meeting the corporation
voted unanimously to recommend
granting the degree to Butler, and the
overseers on Thursday voted, 10 to IL.
not to concur with the corporation.
Among those who voted in favor of
granting the degree were President
Eliot and Treasurer Hooper, and Sen
ator IIoar-between whom and Butler
there Is "A bitter personal feeling and
Rev. james Freeman Clarke led the
opposition. 1t is said that every mem
Der of the board expressed himself as

opposed To Butler and Butlerism, so
that none of the eleven could he ac-
cused of acting from a partisan cOnsid-
Grafton Those who advocated con-
ferring the degree did so on the ground
that it had been the timehonOred
practice of Harvard to confer the de
gree on the governor, and that the
honor is one shown the office rather
than the incumbent Those who OPP
posed such action argued that the
presidents of a century were not bind
ing, that the honor is to the man and
not to the office, and that the gov
ernor's character is inconsistent with
the college motto of ''Neritas."
Respecting the action of the over
seers. there is this to be said If Har-
ward proposes to show in the future
more discrimination in comforting the
degree than it has in the past, now is
a good time to inaugurate the plan. If
the honor is to the office, the degree
should have been conferred. If it is
not to the office, there is 10 reason why
a governor should be selected for the
honor in preference to other men of
superior education and greater ability.
Colleges have cheapened their degrees
until they have come to mean almost
nothing, in comforting them upon men
of no particular ability OF learning,
merely because, in some cases, they
have succeeded in winning official dis
tinction sometimes by practices that
are not worthy of being held up before
young men for their emulation. This
question ought to have the effect of
leading colleges to exercise more care
in comforting their degrees.
Williams college conferred the degree
of Ii. ID. on Butler in 1868 or 1861.
There is no question that the refusal
will be worth more to Butler than the
degree. lie will make use of it in the
! fall campaign as only Butler can, and
he will he the better able to pose as the
| friend, champion and martyr for then
sakes of the men who. while they don't
take much stock in colleges. have votes
that count for as much as those of Il
college president.
