| At the ferries these outrages are particularly
numerous Before the passengers are well oil
the boats long before they have had any
chance to cross the streets and separate upon
their various journeys, long stream OF cabs
and carts comes out OF the slip almost on
run, and nothing but painful alertness ana
dexterity saves their lives.
This is all wrong and inexcusable. The
Police Commissioners can stop it in minute,
and they should promptly do so. police
man is supposed to be stationed at each Of the
ferry entrances, and II he were under strict or
ders to afford passengers an ample opportunity
move, and supposing he did his duty, the stua-
ton would be much improved. 1t is really as
much as peoples lives are worth to cndeavor
to move across the river streets at certain busy
hours of the day, simply because lot of burly
drivers, safely ensconced high on their seats,
are allowed to be as mpudent as they please.
The same trouble is experienced all along
Broadway and the Bowery. Especially at the
corners of Fulton-st., Wall-st., Canal-st. and
Broadway, and throughout the dry-goods dis
trict, these dangers are thick. They have in
creased alarmingly within the past year and are
more serious now than they have ever been
before. Ii is the common experience OF women
when they have started to cross street, with
good reason to think that the passage can be
safely made, to hear n gruf cry from an ap-
preaching car or truck and 10 see its driver
deliberately whip up his horses with no other
possible motive than sheer deviltry. He wants
to see them run. and stands or sits at his place
and grins at their fright. Such incidents are
the subject Of continual protest and complaint
in letters 10 the newspapers.
1t is probably true that the police would be
unable to put an entire stop TO this kind of
pcrilous conduct. They cannot be everywhere
at the same moment. nor follow every vehicle
in the city on its route. But they can make it
so unpleasant for many of the drivers who dis
regard public rights that the evil will be much
abated. The arrest and severe punishment of
few of them would have a healthy moral
effect on all. The principal street corners and
the ferries could be thoroughly protected, and
this of itself would be a grateful relief. We
hope Mr.. French and his colleagues viii give
this subject their prompt attention 1t has
become so formidable in its consequences that
they cannot ignore it without disregard of
their responsibility.

The Board of Managers of the Elmra Re-
formatory make an important and valuable sug-
gcstion in their annual report. The Rcforma-
tory is now crowded to its utmost capacity. the
number Of inmates during the year having
averaged 1856. II ought to be able TO receive
from the juvenile reformatoriee boys who are
too old and too depraved properly to find
place there, and who need the discipline Of the
Elmira Reformatory. At the same time the fact
is recognized that there are large numbers Of
young men, now in the State prisons for first
offences, who are more properly subjects for
rcformatory than for penal treatment. The
question then arises whether the Reformatory
shall be enlarged or some other means shall be
found of widening the operation of the system
employed there. The managers are strongly
against any addition to the buildings at Elmira.
but recommend instead the adoption Of their
system in some one OF the State prisons, re-
placing TO considerable extent at least the

recent tendencies in penal science. We are
learning that it Is for the good OF society as

utiitarian point of view than punishment. This
conviction is becoming so general that the

There is seemingly no limit to the ways and
means employed by the Gable Railroad Com
pany to get its charter made good. Assembly
man Shea, who has constituted himself the
especial champion of this corporation, proposed
last night an innocent-looking measure, which
he succeeded in advancing to the order Of third
reading, on the representation that it was In
tended TO enable an African Methodist Church
to remedy defect in its articles of incorpora-
tion. On subsequent examination it was found
that the bill was broad enough TO cover the
Cable Company with its claim on seventy miles
of New Yorks streets. The discovery was
made in time to permit remedy. A sharp
lookout must be kept on Shea hereafter
NJ. de Lesseps has won another preliminary
victory, which probably indicates the success
of his scheme to bolster up the failing fortunes
of the Panama Canal. He has succeeded in in
ducing the Chamber of Deputies to agree by
a vote of 200 to 40, TO consider his proposal
for new lottery loan With the Govern
ment's sanction, this magician may, by waving
his enchanted wand. draw enough money from
the pockets of those people whose faith in him
is still unshaken to carry on his project for
some time longer. But the bonds must be sold
at such discount that the proceeds can insure
little more than temporary postponement of
the collapse which is inevitable sooner or later.
The House Committee on Rivers and Harbors
has broken the record. Apparently the prin-
ciple on which its work has been done has been
TO turn not away from anybody who asked for
anything. Hence there has been little
trouble in rolling up the enormous total of
el9,432,7S3, which is to be promiscuously dis
tributed over the country. There is one trou-
bic about bringing this bill forward at present.
IL ought to have been kept back until the fate
OF the "Dark Lantern Tariff measure is de-
cided. II this River and Harbor bill should
ever become law, the necessity of reducing
the surplus would be appreciably less than it
u now.
There are, unquestionably, strong reasons
why the vacant Chief Justiceshp Of the SUI
pfeme Court should be filed without needless
delay. One of these is that the court mas more
work on hand than il can do; and even if some
method Of relieving It in some degree is devised
the nine Justices will continue 10 be fully oc-
cupied. OF course there Is nothing but spec
ulation in the matter thus FAR, bat Mr.. Cleve-
lands course for somc time has led to wide

in four years, indicating not an increase OF
crime. but tendency toward this method OF
dealing with youthful offenders. In has BEEN
in fact, remarkably successful. The statistics
of the institution show. from information to be
relied upon, that over so per cent Of the men
received in the institution and subsequently
paroled are probable reformations No one
needs to be told how much better system OF
this kind is than one which brutalizes and cor
rupts the young criminal by bringing him into
contact with the most hardened OF his class.
There seems to be no good reason why such
rcadjustment of our prison population should
not be made as to concentrate the worst elc-
ments of il, and 50 relieve the remainder from
their contaminating influence.
A considerable proportion OF the present in
mates of the State prisons are first offenders.
They are more likely to emerge confirmed
criminals than not, and so society keeps on add
ing to its burdens by manufacturing enemies
for itself, who must be watched, pursued, tried
and imprisoned, all at a great cost both in
money and general Generalization. The Re
formatory system is especially adapted to the
reclamation of youthful criminals inasmuch as
under the law their stay is governed by the

single restriction that it shall not exceed the
maximum term provided by law for the crime.
The conduct and progress of the prisoner are
carefully noted, and when the Board Of Man
ayers are convinced that it is proper to do so,
he is released, whether that time come soon or
late This system has worked so we'll that it
would, no doubt, be a public benefit to extend
its influence as far as it is wise and practicable.
