TRAIN ROEHIRIES.

by the simple eypedcnt of opening a switch
| five determined and well harmed men succeeded
| in robbing train on the Little Rock. Mississippi
| River and Texas Railroad, compelling seventy
| five persons to throw up their hands, and cOolly
| pundcred them one by one The most notice
able fact in this as in most robbcrics of the kind
is the prompt and complete submission of the
victims. Itmight be thought that on the doctrine
of chances some passenger would occasionally
be met with who refused TO throw up his hands,
or who being armed, should throw one of
them mp with pistol in it, and begin firing
But this seems never to happen. In the long
list of stage robbcrics on the Pacific Coast, for
example we can recall no instance of n pas
sengcr showing fight, though express messengers
have often done SO, and generally with success.
The rule. as regards passengers, is instant sub
mission, and this of course tends to make this
kind of robbery easy. In the Little Rock case
the express messengers were apparently un-
armed. At all events they made no resistance.
In California some years ago an express mes
scnger, Aaron Ross, beat of whole band of
train-robbcrs single handed. and killed Cne of
them. He. however, was well armed. Drivers
of stages. and we suppose conductors and en-
g;nccrs on trains also. never think it incumbent
on them to fight robbers. But why the pas
Scngcrs, who often have much to lose so uni
formly surrender discretion, is not sOapparcnt.
Ii is truc that the wild shooting of the robbers
in the Little Rock case was calculated to dis
coinage nervous people, but it may be presumed
that Il large proportion of the male passengers
were Southern men by no means given to nerv
ousness, and quite possibly in the habit of carry
Il
quietly and allow themselves to be robbed by
five it is not easy to understand in fact, and
though il is in accord with the usual outcome in
such cases it constitutes II pcrpcxing study.
The probability is that if one passenger had
rcbelcd Il dozen would have followed his ex
ample. but as u pioneer was wanting nobody
stirred. Perhaps in these cases the action of
the robbers So closely resembles the process of
taking tickets up that the habit of submission
to that proves too long for the passengers. Ii
may also be that long course of petty fcccings
by the people who keep railroad restaurants and
lnnch-counters has dcmoralzcd the travelling
public, and 50 10 say educated them to submit
to any kind of robbery.
But since it is obvious that passengers will
not defend themselves. and since reliance on
this fact undoubtedly must encourage train
robbers, II may become necessary. at least in
the South and parts of The Wild West" to

and this is a point which Democratic Presl-
dent must seriously consider.

Although Sheriff Davidson is pretty secure
from attack on the Albany side of his little
unplcasantness in regard to overcharges
against this city. yet he does not seem to have
the case so well in hand here. The Corpora
ton Counsel has wickedly insinuatcd to the
Controller that some of the allegations against
the Sheriff can be readily proved and suggests
that when Mr.. Davidson presents his bill Tor
tho last quarter of this year the overcharges
should be deducted from the amount otherwise
due. This would doubtless send the matter to
the courts where the Sheriff ought to desire to

The decrease in legal tenders is because a
larger amount was in the banks at the latter
date than at the former. and the decrease in
bank circulation only shows how the Govern
ment issues are crowding the bank notes ont of
use. But in spite OF this, the supply of paper
has expanded SIS, 1887 in fifteen months.
Surely inhatioa at the rate of ST. 200, 600 each
month ought to help, if initiation at any rate
can help But the obvious stagnation IN trade
and fall in prices indicate that, if the state of
the currency is IN any measure responsible for
the present state of things, the increased supply
has done harm rather than good.
The banks, meanwhile. have been abundantly
supplied also There has been no curtalment
of their disposition to loan by reason of any

they had increased their holdings of coined
silver about $4,000, 900, and 80 held as much
coin at one date as at tho other. Meanwhile,
their stock of silver certificates had scarcely
changed, but their gold certificates had in
creased from $32, ,791. 900 to $47,217,3 34O or
about $14, 100000. Moreover, they held $l7,-
