The New York street Railway Trouble
New York, Aug. 25-At 6 q. M. a
force of 800 policemen dispersed a crowd
of men gathered on the adjacent corners
of Broadway livery stables. It is thought
that the company will make an attempt
to run cars to-day.
at 1887 q car started from the stables
on Seventh avenue and in q few mo-
ments a mob OF men started after the car
which went along easily for six blocks,
until Broadway was reached, when an
effort was made to derail the car.
This proved unsuccessful, but
a few moments later o collision
occurred with tins Forty SECOND and
Boulevard line car, but no injury be.
yond a shaking up occurred. Several
stones we're thrown agains. the car and
the driver was hooted by the mob. The
crowd was dispersed for the moment by
the police. Further on the mob ap.
peared again, and overturned a large
truck on the track, which the police
lifted from the track by main force.
The car proceeded amid the yells of the
orowd.ssAt the junction of Sixth avenue
and Broadway and Thirty-third street
another assault was made upon the ca
with bricks and stones. BY this mo.
ment Capt. Williams with q large force
of police dubbed the mob right and left
and drove them into the side streets
They did not collect again and the ca
made the trip without further Interrupt
tion, followed by another car at noon
Six cars are running. More trouble ii
feared this afternoon, when a large
number OF new drivers are expected

LANCASTER, JUNE 4. 1856
The Better Wuy,

Councils would have done better to have
read and considered the mayors message
first, revised their appropriation ordi-
nance Herewith and then passed it in
stead of passing the ordinance and then
listening to an exposition of the amend
ments needed. 1t must be plain to every
member of councils that if there is de-
of lighting of the city, an appropriation of
e., 900 will not meet it and if specific APP
preparation was to be made to meet the de-
ficiency in lighting, and in the water de-
partment there ought likewise to have
been like appropriation to meet the other
deficiencies. The city is back 81 200 with
its funds for street damages 81 500 for
street repairs made when there was no
money to pay them over $50 in the fire
department and 1895 in the police and
turnkey department.
OF course these will be met at once 10y
paying them out of the new appropriations
but, as the mayor pointed out in his mes
sage, there is no proper principle, upol
which "bills contracted and expenditure
made in the several departments during tn,
fiscal year ending June 1, 1856, should bt
paid out of appropriations made for the
year beginning at that date; our munici,
pality will never have a proper system un-
til this distinction is clearly made" 1t is
simply robbing Peter to pay Paul; cutting
off one end Of the cloth to piece out the
other.
Councils has literally provided for " con-
tingencies." That affords margin for
transfer to the appropriations depleted
by these deficiencies. 1t will be well, how.
ever, to keep steadily in view during the
year the state of the appropriations and tc
confine expenditures within them. Coun
ellis should know at every meeting JUS
how the city stands; what it has and wha
it owes; what it has to get and what i
will have 10 pay. Committee should orde
no work regardless of this; and the mayo
should hold a stiff rein.

A Sensible Construction.

In Philadelphia the chief of police, act
ing no doubt under instructions from some
competent lawyer, takes reasonable and
it seems to us, a fair view of the law going
into effect to prevent merchants giving
gifts TO purchasers. Penal statutes are
to be strictly construed their title
is part of them; their purport
must be gathered from the entire
text. In this instance while the bill
enacted by the Legislature prohibits the issue
of any tickets or checks representing gifts.
it does not prohibit gifts themselves: it is
entitled AN act for the suppression of lot
terry gifts by stOrekeepers and others to Sc
cure patronage; and its preamble sets
forth that " the laws against gambling and
lotteries are evaded by the giving of tickets
emitting the holders thereof to money or
articles Of valueas inducements TO purchas-
ers at the injury of legitimate business"
BY these restrictions it must be interpreted.
Where by the practices in question, lottery
gifts" are not made nor the laws against
gambling and lotteries" evaded, the new
law does not apply.
In Philadelphia the chief of police saws.
"My construction of the law is that il onIy
applies in cases where the element OF chance
enters into the matter. If merchant sells
his goods and accompanies the article pur-
chased with ticket or number which enti-
ties the holder to chance, that certainly
bring him within the meaning of the act. Rnt
in all cases where merchant accom- panies
his goods with gift, think lie can do so
with perfect safety, as the question of chance
does not enter into the matter. | have in
structed the members of the police depart
ment to ascertain whether any merchants
within the limits OF their command are issu
ing tickets, and il so, to instruct them in the
meaning of the law"
He is right. If not, the law is wrong and
it must go.

1t is perfectly disgusting to see a majority
of congressman yield to popular clamor and
vote for such an arbitrary and vicious piece
OF legislation as that taxing the manufac-
ture of oleomargarine and putting it under
the control of the internal revenue depart
ment. The reduction of the tax from the
outrageous rate of ten cents per pound to
the only less outrageous rate of five cents
per pound in no sense alters the principle
involved nor mitigates the offending of
those who supported this un-D Democratic
and, we firmly believe, unconstitutional
measure.
IL Is no occasion for great wonder that
some OF the slip-shod statesmen who turn
IKE weather-cocks to every wind that blows
supported the bill but to find Mr.. Hol.
man and Mr.. Randall, who SO often DEFY
clamor and stand for principle, ON the
wrong side of this bill is deplorable . the
Breckenridges, Ex-Governor Curtin Mr.
Hewitt and Mr.. Morrison voted on the
right side and deserve credit for it.
We hope the Senate will kill the bin if
not we are confident the president will run
his knife through it.
