and finally dealing a deadly blow to the man
with whom he had quarrclled. The verdict
Of the jury furnishes the moral.
The liquor-scllcr, who was truly described on
the trial as the indirect cause Of the hacbmans
death. Is free from any Of the consequences OF
the act. He violated the law by keeping his
barroom open on Sunday, he sold the liquor
which brought on the tragedy, and he took
part in the fatal quarrel. Morally he is every
whit as guilty as Cowles
The Jury acted wisely in refusing to find
justification for the crime in the circumstances
that led them to recommend the prisoner to
mercy. The taking of human life is too serious
q matter to allow 1t to go unpublished when any
degree of blame, however small, attaches to the
SLAYER. In this case the killing was admitted
and even if the prisoners story was true,
mere assault upon him, without the use oil a
weapon and close to crowded street. did not
iustfy him in taking life. If human life is.fo
have adequate value in this city, neither past
responsibility, influential friends nor clrcum-
stances that excite pity must avail TO Tree inc
man who commits homicide from the con-
sequences Of his act.

THE BROADWAY BARROOM TRAGEDY.

The story Of Henry ". Cowles as developed
by the testimony in the trial which ended in his
conviction yesterday of manslaughter in the
first degree is one Of marked contrasts. On the
one side was represented his sober self, peace
full and industrious, respected by his employers
and associates, and bearing an honorable reputa-
ton. The other side, as disclosed by the evil

the crime was committed. shows him making a

NO RETIEUS IN CENTRAL PARK

NO RETIEUS IN GENITAL PARK.
tThe Park Commissioners will hold a special
meeting to-day to consider the application OF
the general commanding the First Brigade OF the
National Guard for the use of Central Park for
areview on Wednesday, October g. This appl-
cation should be cOurteously but firmly denied.
Central Park was not made for military reviews,
nor should it ever be used in that way. 1t will
be impossible TO preserve the beauty of its turf
and of its shrubbery if our regiments are to go
through their evolutions on its broad green
spaces. The heavy tramp of thousands of men
in martial array and the hoofs OF the horses
ridden by the officers will destroy the smooth
the turf beyond repair.
The National Guard is composed of excellent
material and is doing good work. 1t merits
hearty support and always gets it from The
TRIBUNE. But it is not at all necessary to the
prosperity or progress of the National Guard
that any of its reviews should be held in Cen
tral Park, even though Gov ernOr Hill is to come
down from Albany to witness them. The cty's
pleasure ground should be preserved intact
for the use and enjoyment OF the great body
of the people and not be cut and SCARED by
regimental marching and counter marching.
Superintendent Parsons in a recent report
showed that the turf was in condition far
from satisfactory. 1t is too thin, with INSULT
cient depth and vitality to withstand the effects
of drouth. In what pitiul plight it will be
if the city regiments are permitted to march
over it!
3 Some National Guardsmen argue that they
should be permitted to ruin the turf in Central
Park because the big parade ground above the
Harlem River is not yet ready for use. But
they have flourished without parade ground
fer many years and without permission to in
wade Central Park either. The discipline and
efficiency of the National Guard will not be in
the least impaired if the soldiers are kept of
the grass in the park. But the park will suffer
severely if Its gates are thrown open to march
ing regiments.
