LEGIxLfTION NEEDED.

The Bureau Of Statistics states that the lah-
road companies crossing the northern ana the
southern boundaries Of this country refuse 10
give accounts of exports from the country u!
Ial. In consequence. it is stated, the accounts
Of exports are exceedingly imperfect y lew
months ago ii was announced that the impuN-
sibility under existing laws of obtaining any
correct report Of immigration 10y rail across the
Canadian or the Mexican border had led the
Bureau of Statistics to omit entirely the de
fcctyc reports previously published. In con
sequence of these deficiencies, it appear, that
the public records have contained and must still
contain grave errors. which cannot be avoided
without further legislation. The existing acts
governing the movement of persons and pro
ducts across the border were framed at time
when railway travel was wcll-ngh unknown,
and were not at all adapted to secure complete
aud correct reports. But it will not do to per
nit the statistic, of foreign commerce TO remain
thus incomplete. Without further legislation
it will be impossible to get any correct state
mcnt of foreign immigration, and hence it
would be impossible to reach any accurate csti-
mate of the increase of population from year
to year.
The only reason which the railway companies
have to give for their course in the matter is
the Inconvenience of preparing correct reports,
or allowing such reports to bc prepared. But
thi, would only cause some additional labor to
clerks of the various companies The small in
convenience might well be disrcgardcd in con
sidcraton Of the public necessity. Correct re-
turns are obtained without difficulty of all I'M
ports, and it j. equally easy to obtain correct
returns Of all exports The Canadian Gov
eminent is able to obtain correct statements of
the movement of products across the border :;
why shall not the United States as well Even
the Mexican Government il able 10 obtain com
plctc reports. Every car crossing the border
should have with it an official statement of
its contents, to he deposited with the proper
Customs officer. Nothing is needed but a
simple act requiring the railway companies
to comply with such regulations as the Treas
ury Department may devise, and there is no
reason to believe that the consequent burden to
the companies will be Of importance.

THE INDICTMENT or FARMER AND WORh
William S. Warner, J. Henry Work and their
friends ought now to be entirely happy. The
pnblic has been assured again and again, III
court and out of it, that Mr.. Warner and Mr..
Work could prove to the complete satisfaction
of their fellow citizens that their transactions
with Ferdinand Ward had never been tainted
by fraud or any form of wrOng-doing. If we
are to believe the protestations of their counsei
and themselves not one cent ever found It's way
into the pockets Of the two young men VINO
grabbed so big a share of the Ward plunder
that was not shining with integrity ana good
faith 1t must be admitted that the great puDllc
has winked the wink of disbelief and derlslon
when upright and learned counsel have lad
their hands upon their hearts and solemnly
assured sedate judges that Mr.. Warner was
actuated by highly laudabe motives when he
stripped Ward bare of his spoils, and that Mr.
Work was laboring zealOusly with Mr.. Warner
in a righteous effort to restore to every man MS
own The defrauded depOsitors in the Marine
Bank and many other people who suffered by
the swinding, of which Mr.. Warner and Mr..
Work protested themselves so strongly igno-
rant were naturally sccptical, and their unbclicf
seemed to be shared by the community at large
But now Warner and Work will have Il
chance to convince jury of their peers that
they have been misunderstood and misrcprc-
scented, and if they are triumphantly acquitted,
they will be able to go on with the good work OF
distributing Wards stolen goods, unvexed by
sneers and untroubled by attacks. They should
be grateful to District Attorney Dorsheimer fol-
this opportunity of proving their innocence Ill
open court. OF course, they will not try to take
any advantage of mere technicalitcs or legal
complications. They are anxious to stand un-
spotted before the world. They can only clear
themselves by acquittal after fair, full trial
on the merits of the case and on the facts. ii
they ale innocent they will welcome the most
searching inquiry. Branded with the disgrace
of Indictment they can never ciface that brand
by any resort to legal suberfuge, by any qIib-
bling, by any attempt to wrcst the processes OF
our courts and the letter of the statutes to their
protection from justice. They must stand or
fall by an honest trial of the truth.
Mr.. Dorsheimcr may have made some mis-
takes in his efforts to bring before a jury the
question of the guilt or innocence of Warner
and Work. But he deserves the thanks OF the
community for showing that no influence Of an
army of able counsel, no resources OF great
wealth or powerful association, have succeeded
in turning him one jot from his straight pur-
pose. lie has been right in insisting that "A jury
ought to pass on the facts of the transactions of
Warner and Work with Ward. The indicted
men should welcome the issue. Let it be fair
field and no favor. Mr.. DOrshemcr can be
trusted. we think, to push the prosecution with
energy.

PRINCE ALEyANDER,S DIpLOulcy


Prince Alexander has made an adi0it use of
his military successes. BY Withdrawing the
Bulgarian garrisons from Eastern Rumela
and complying with the requirements Of the
Porte. he has not only gained an ally, but
secured the moral support of the Powers
These concessions, if made in the hour of
defeat, would have been fatal to the Princes
prestige. The Bulgarans and the Rumel ans
have ardently wished foI the union of the two
States, and were overjoycd when the revolution
occurred. The Prince has virtually consented
TO the reappOintment of Turkish Governor
and the restoration of the former conditions
with such notifications as the Conference NAV
be able to secure. These are hard terms ard
while in their extremity the Bulgarans would
have had no choice but submission, they would
bave held the Prince personally responsible for
their humiliation. But now that an invading
army has been driven back and disastrously
defeated several times in the open field, the
Princes subjects will be more lenient in their
judgment. They will give him credit for
diplomatic as well as military successes. His
gallantry in the field will make him popular
idol. In spite of his surrender to the Porte,
since his concessions are really equivalent to
this, the cities of Bulgaria are now illuminated

The Seryian position, on the other hand, has
become almost critical. The Porte is already

Servia warning of the consequences OF persist

pliancc with the Turkish conditions leaves King
Milan in sorry plight. If Bulgaria is to retain
the frontiers defined by the Treaty OF Berlin,
and Eastern Rumelia is to be restored to It's
former relations with the Porte, Seryia cannot
reasonably ask for the ccssion of the Wldln
District. or of any other portion of the princi-
pality. The Kingdom no longer has a cause OF

King Milan's subjects are not in q mood to be

may sullenly hold King Milan responsible for

iected The attack upon Widin, reported in
the latest dispatches, is probably a desperate
attempt on the part of the Servian staff to OBJ

MAYOR GR1CE dr. EVERY TURN.

If the last election had gone as he hoped and
planned, Mr.. Grace would have been by far the
most autocratc Mayor that New-lork ever
knew Through the men appointed by HIM, ana
his influence over commissioners appointed by
his predecessors. he already had almost entire
control of many of the most important OF the
municipal departments. He wanted to add Inc
Sheriff, the County Clerk and the Coroncrs 10
the troop that trcwblcs at his nod, but he was
most of all anxious to add vote to his strength
in the Board of Estimate and ApportOnment
The Controller and the President OF the lax
Department have been too Independent to
satisfy the Mayor, although the Controller was
elected "a q County Democracy candidate, ana
Mr.. Coleman vas promoted to his present
position by Mr.. Grace. The Mayor longcd win
an exceeding great longing to see Charles W
Dayton elected President OF the Board oil
Aldermen, for in that posi- ton he would always
be at Nh Graccs beck and call, an his I'M
questioning support for his pa,ron and cher
could always be counted on in the Board oi
Apporticnmcnt. Mr.. Dayton's principal object
in life for some years has been the sounding OF
Mr.. Gracc's virtues and majestic qualities
through Mr. Dayton's little tin trumpet.
Disappointed in the results of the voting on
November 3, Mr.. Grace is now busy IN lortIiy-
ing himself in the departments. He Is stretch

THE GOTLENOR rs 4 SPOILSUIN
TO make an opening for Sterling Governor
Hill has displaced Mr.. Leaycraft. who has had
many years experience as "A Port Warden. The
Office is one requiring confirmation by the State
Senate and the Governor knows that Sterling
cannot be confirmed. As Mr. LcaycIaft's term
expired since the Senate adjourned however.
If the Governor refuses TO make any other
appointment, there seems to be chance,
under the peculiar State law, for Sterling TO be
retained in the Office. The Governor could have
made nomination to the last State Senate TO
fill this place. 1t was his duty to make nomi-
nations for Port Wardens to ill other vacancies.
and also for Immigration Commissioner and
other State officers. He made enc nomination
that of the clerk of the Tweed Senate-as
Port Warden but knowing that men like Ster-
ling could not be confirmed the Governor made
M effort to fill the other places. Now he shows
his contempt for Civil Service Reform. or for
even respectable Civil Service. by selecting
Sterling as the type-Of man he desires to honor.
The Governor has it in his power practically
to nullify the State Civil Service Act. The
Commissioners will have IT, obey his orders in
