THE MORAL,

It Is not easy to find o new moral in the
hanging of DRIscoLL.
The local significance Of the execution is
not great. It only proves that once in half
q hundred times hanging is not played out
In New York"
According to statistics in The WORLD
Almanac there were 2,ss5 recorded murders
and homicides in the country during 1887.
There were 70 legal e~xecutions-two only in
this State-and 1873 lynchings.
It Is doubtful, in view of the lack of GER
tainty in punishment for capital crimes, if
human life will be any safer in New York by
reason Of DRIsooLL's doom. Pretty much
the only thing settled Is that he won't kill
anybody else.

the cases of Commander Michael H. whalen
and Alderman Daniel E. Bowling, officers of
Peter Cooper Post, G. A. R., who were ar
rested yesterday afternoon in the police raid
on Casper Herrmann's funeral.
Sergt. O'Brien, of the Madison street

bers of Peter Cooper Post, in full uniform.
marched around from their headquarters at
III East Broadway at 2P. NJ. yesterday and
took their stand by the hearse in front of 80
Band, hired by the Peter Cooper Post, and
the Grand Army men were moving behind
the hearse when he asked Commander Whalen
If the post hadla permit to parade.
Mr.. Whalen said that he had not, and the
Sergeant then told him that he must dismiss
the band and that the post must break rank
and walk on the sidewalk. The Commander
dismissed the band, but refused to direct the
men to TAX the sidewalk, saying that the
crowd was too great there.
After q fruit less effort to get a permit from
Headquarters, Commander Whalen and Quar-
termaster Bowling were arrested, together
with a score of other members of the post.
