Bridge Railway was not ready TO carry pas
sensers until some six months later. linen IL
was found that the demand for transportation
had been underestimated, or that grave mis-
take had been made in the plans; for the New
York station was too small to allow trains OF
more than two cars to be switched from one
track to the other. The grip used on the cable
failed in many cases, greatly to the annoyance
of DELAYED passengers, until experience had
taught the managers how to avoid mishaps of
this SORT
At length the mechanical difficulties were
overcome Then the trustees saw that the
nublc demand for reduced tolls could no
longer be UNDECIDED. cut of 30 rer cent III
railway fares has in three months practically
doubled the number of passengers, and would
have more than doubled them if the railway
had been able to carry them. This is impOssi-
ble with the present switching facilities. The
hill nassed in the closing hour of the recent
legislative session. providing for a recognized
Board of Trustees and giving them the right 70
extend the New-YOrk station, is thought by
some TO be fatally defective. We trust that
this is not so and that the Governor will see his
wav clear to sign it. Then the extension
should be speedily made.
The first two years of the Bridge have been
largely years of experiment. The indications
are that its chief usefulness will be more and
more AS n railway bridge till the capacity of
the structure is reached. What that limit is it
is hard to say. The cable system is doubtless
destined to be superseded in time by the cleo
t,ic motor But that the Bridge can ever be
made to pay-not for itself, hut for the interest
on its cost, in addition to tho running expenses
is more than doubtful. Its benefits, which
are to be worth many times the millions
required to build the costly pile. are to be founo
in the increased ease and certainty of cOmmun-
ication between the cities and in the increase in
the value of real estate, particularly in
Brooklyn. Viewed in this light the Bridge will
doubtless prove paying investment

4 YEW EVANGELIST.

The Rev. Sam Jones who has boon known in the
South for some time az successful evangelist, has
been creating genuine sensation III several South
ern cities during the last few months. His success
I'm starting revyals of religion, has. from all ac-
counts. been phenomenal. As many as 5000 people
nj all grades In society have frequently met to hear
him and every one has literally hung ON the burn
ing words of Sam Jones. he is Familiarity called
throughout the South. The secret of the mans
success appears to be first of all his intense earnest
ness lie is deeply penetrated with the reality of
the Gospel which he breaches. He feels irTcsist-
ibly impelled to preach by divine command. His
style ia homely. direct and simple. Arguments he
eschews but he ia rich in Illustrations, and his
sermons are filed with eplgrams and
outck flashes of biting wit. Sometimes his hearers
laugh at bizarre bit OF humor. and sometimes
they weep at stirring appeal to their emotions
He is not a man of much education, and for this
reason is looked upon with suspicion at first by the
regular clergy, but he carries all prejudices
before hun In tho words of Tie NdihUile Amer-

If the Kings County authorities put an end TO
all betting at Brighton the grounds must DC

Now it was the disgust of all respectable peo-
pie with the outrageous abuses at Brighton,
and the poison which that sink-hole dlllused
far and wide, that compelled the Kings
County authorities to take the severest meas
ures against pOo-selling last year, and Will
force them to do so again this season. lheSe
measures hurt Sheepsbead Bay as well as brlgh-
ton. But if the great jockey clubs had adopted
the rule that no entries should be received by
them from owners who raced horses at Brigh-
ton, this paradise of law breakers would long
ago have become deserted waste. 1t was the
honorable, the manly, the becoming thing TO
do. But the clubs were too amiablc, easy-going
and indulgent And now the day of their

Sam Jones is evidently q man OF strong orlgl-
nality and deep sincerity and in his bold hight
against the sins of humanity ne deserves the
sympathy of all who desire the world to be made
better.

THE CITY OF BERLINS ESCAPE

The Inman steamer City of Berlin had a
narrow escape from total destruction by ice on
her way to this port. Though she was steam
ing very slowly. on account of "A dense fog
through which she had been passing for forty
eight hours, it was impossible to stop her when
n great iceberg was sighted dead ahead, and a
collision occurred which might have sent the
vessel 10 the bottom, but fortunately resulted
III no serious damage.
1t does not appear that the Captain could
have acted more cautiously than he did.
The steamer WAS going slow, but the
fog and the night together made it i'm
possible to see far ahead, and in fact it was
the decline of temperature caused by the
neighborhood of the ice that first gave warning
of the danger There has been this spring
an unusual quantity Of ice in the Atlantic,
and III the paths of vessels bound
for this port, as all reports and many previous
collisions show. And as the ice is almost al
ways encountered in the foggy ATTITUDES of and
about the Banks OF Newfoundland, the danger
il extremely difficult to guard against. The
City OF Bcrlm's narrow escape is apt to make
many intending travellers postpone their de-
parture until the ice is out of the way.

SECOND -ANNIVERSARY or THE BRIDGE

SECOND ANNIVERSARY or THE BRIDG r.
On May "a two years ago, with much pomp
and ceremony, the great highway that spans the
East River was thrown open to the public use.
Fourteen years had been occupied in building
it, and the cost had been at the rate of some
thing over million dollars year. It's COM
pletion had been looked forward to long and
YEARLY and sometimes in despair people had
said that the Bridge would never be finished.
But at length the eventful day arrived, and
rarely was a holiday more generally observed.
That it was an important fact, especially to
Brooklyn, cannot be denied. But that the
Bridge has yet served its full purpose no one
will assert BY an unwise policy system OF
high tolls was introduced, some of the trustees
apparently thinking that the revenues of the
Union Ferry Company must not be too severely
cut into. BY a deplorable accident, within less
than a week after the opening, dozen per-
SONS were crushed and trawpled to death. The

been quite clear whether the property Owners
along Broadway were anxious for TINS ROAD or
not; but it is evident that if they don't make
their wishes manifest speedily. the road VIII DC
there before they know it, and their favor OF
their ooposition will be of little avail Mr.. Sharp
seems to be entirely master of the SITUATION
and we can only hope that he will be graciouSiy
pleased to do better by the city with this road
than he has with the Bleecker-st. line.
1t will be seen by our cable dispatches that
the best-informed observers of affairs in Eng
land think the Anglo-Russian situation is
"eravern to-day than a week ago. This Is
due to Russias refusal to rati1y tiie
frontier line agreed upon by her
envoys In London and the objections
of Mr. Gladstone to the selection OF the Ming OF
Denmark as an arbitrator. 1t is not singular
that Russia refuses to accept the proposed
line of demarcatiOn. That might IN
terfere with her march upon HeiaV
on some fine day in the future, and Gladstone
probably fears that Denmark's unhappy MEM
ores of the past would not incline It's ruler
toward England nowin deciding disputed points.
So il looks like dead lock, which would mean
war if the present Ministry had any backbone {;
but, as it lacks that useful article, the result

There are so many crises affecting the British
Cabinet just now that is is hard to tell which Is
the gravest The Irish crisis is perhaps the
most disagreeable and unnecessary. The Gov
ernment finding that o combination OF Radi-
Gals and Parnellites could, and doubtless
would defeat the renewal of the Crimes
Act, introduced the Land Purchase Bill,
hoping thereby to win support. But Mr. Cham
berlaln and Sir Charles Dixie insist that the
more gracious measure shall precede the
harshcr one, and altogether the outcome OF the
situation is not clear. At this distance 1t
is hard to understand why Mr.. Gladstone
could not see that this was just the time to
make concessions to the lrish or at least to re-
frain from even the appearance of harshncss.
The island is quiet, and the Prince of Wales
has come home safe and sound, having been
pretty well treated by his hosts. The English
will have to wait while before another so
good opportunity is offered them to " let up u"
on Ireland gracefully.
