A rumor is in circulation in New Jersey to the
effect that the Baltimore and Ohio Railway
Company has abandoned the Staten Island
route, and has secured a new inlet to New
York at Weehawken. It is asserted that work
has begun and tracks will soon be laid on an
old wagon road that runs close 10 the banks of
the Hudson, from the outskirts of Jersey City
to Weehawken ferry, where the West Shore
road mas Its terminus. The probability is that
this rumor Is not well founded, since it would
require about as much time, trouble and legis-
lation to get q tunnel through tho palisades as
to build the Arthur Kill bridge: and besides 1t
would be vastly more expensive. But what
ever route may be adopted it is to be hoped
that the tracks of the B. & o. road will speedily
find their way into New York. That the i'm
mense and constantly increasing travel between
the political and commercial capitals of the
country should be at the mercy of a single rail-
way line Is at once intolerable in itself and a
disgrace to the country.

So many bills have been offered for tn

So many bills have been offered for the
amendment of the civil service laws that the
one which Mr.. Cox. OF North Carolina, has
Just introduced is in danger of not receiving all
the popular attention it deserves. 1t il at once
the most practical and the most widely accept
able of the whole list brought forward thus far
In the present session OF Congress 1t goes to the
bottom OF one of the worst of the minor abuses
In the civil service as now coustituted-the per-
version OF justice whereby one clerk receives
eighteen hundred dollars for doing twelve hun
bred dollar work, while another receives only
twelve hundred dollars for doing the work
which the eighteen-hundred-dollarc clerk cam
not or will not do. The proposal, also, to make
the classification 80 uniform In all the depart
ments that substitutes can be drawn from one
20 supply temporary vacancies In another, in
stead OF bringing in help from outside, or other
wise disturbing wholesome routine, is a good
thing. Its adoption would be welcomed by all
the department clerks who fairly earn their sal
aries. 1t would insure their tenure no other
arrangement could, for the overflow from one
department where the work has fallen to min
imum would probably find employment in
some other department where the work is too
heavy and tine clerks too few. The necessity
for wholesale dismissals. such as have occurred
in branches of the Interior department within
recent recollection, would be rarer than ever.
Unless some defects shall be discovered In Mr.
Cox's bill, which do not meet the eye at a first
glance, its prospects OF passage seem to be very
good

That is q very interesting legal contest now
In progress in Hooking county, Ohio, In which
the rights of the heirs Of certain murdered per-
sons turn upon the question Of the order in
which the ancestors died. 1t Is not unique

most notable cases ever tried by the English
courts involved the respective dover rights Of
two widows whose husbands, father and son,
were hanged from the same gallows tree.
