I The Fl. ple BRIDGE NOT nle ENOUGH.
Police Have 10 Keep Beck the Crowds
wanting 10 GO over It.

NEW YoRx, May 2S.-The crowd cross
ing the new East river bridge yesterday
was the larges. that has. crossed it since
the opening. The police4Eere obliged to
stop toe crowd from entering the New
York end at 9 o'clock for half an hour and
again at o'clock. Many estimates have
been made Of the total number Of persons
who crossed the bridge yesterday, but they
vary considerably. It is, however, saie'to
say that $50, 600 people took advantage Of
the new thoroughiare and walked across
East river, many OF them for the first time
in their lives. The throng was so great that
the driyeways were. used by foot passen-
gers, the otpath being crowded to its
fullest capacity. The gats'keepers say
that 80 out Of every 100 passed over with
out paying, as they were unable to keep
back or receive fare fast enough. Should
this great rush continue, it Is probable
that the space beneath the promenade
now used for telegraph wires will be con.
yerted into footpath. At present the
bridge is certainly TOO small. When the
caisare ready and in running order twill
relieve the tootpaths greatly Of the crowd
which now fills 1t completely from one
end to the other and renders it almost i'm.
possible for pedestrians to make any head.
way. The ferryboats yesterday were also
well crowded, as many who had crossed the
bridge returned by terryto avoid the rush
of the bridge.

PirrsBuRGn, May 2s.-At the session o.
the Synod. of the United Presbyterian
Church today; Rev. ]. G. Carson presented
the report OF the Committee on Bills and
over.ures, which consisted Of one subject,
"the use Of instrumental music in divine
worship" The Committee being unable to
agree submitted two feporta. DR.. Kerr
read the majority report, which was quite
voluminous. 1t says in regard 10 the Ordi'
nance OF praise, mo intelligent Christian
looks for the appointment Of particular
tunes to be sung or particular means by
which the key note may be found, or
musical instruments as help in singing,
or the employment OF trained singers
TO lead in praise service. Such are among
the things LETT to Christian prudence"
Now the question is to which oil these
Glasses does instrumental music belong,
the essential or non.essentials OF worship?
That Is the very question decided In the
repeal Of our prohibition law; that law was
what may be said to have been OUT
statutory application Of the principle cited
from the confession. To repeal tnat law,
Is has been done, was to DECLARE a
misapplication Of the principle.
In other words that there was nothing
in the ordinance Of praise or
any other bible authority To- justify such
prohibition; that tits the recorded iuHg.
ment Of the church. While that judgment
stands how can we constantly declare, as
asked in this memorial, that under the
principle cited this prohibitory law Is In
effect aud still operative. 1t may advise a
course Of conduct deemed expedient as to
circumstances or required in the interest Of
peace and harmony, but not OF, Q subject
on which the judgment Of the church has

occupied their attention was that OF lock

Committee had proposition before It from

accept this proposition and will recommend
the same to Council. 1t will, II built, be Of
great convenience to the police during State
Fair times and while picnics are being
held.
About the time this was disposed OF,
Capt. Bennett appeared and stated that he
hal matter he wanted to bring to their
attention. The robberfes in the city had
been altogether too numerous OF late and
with a regular uniformed police force Il
was next 10 impossible to stop 1t, especially
when the city was so spread out and the
force go small. He deplored the thieving
as much as any one and he and his men
had done, as much as lay in their power to
stop 1t. They had been on duty day and
night and he had spent about

that he could do more than
keep his men on the watch all

lence to all this and then agreed that the
city ought to do something, but they fur.
ther agreed that The ,city's finances
would not admit OF anything being done.
This decision broke the Chief yll up, and
hewas in a detected state Of mind the re.
