A SEA ISLAND PARK.

Through the efforts of Congressman Cox
and SPNoLA a resolution is likely to pass
both houses permitting the improvement and
use of Governors Island. IN New York hAr-
Dor, for o park for the people.
The admirable report of the Military Com.
mittee presents the reasons in favor of this
project SO forcibly, and meets all objections
TO It 30 conclusively that there is nothing
more to be said.
The island contains sixty acres. 1t is
within a few minutes of the Battery by boat.
And 1t could be improved and fitted for the
peoples enjoyment at small expense, without
detracting at all from the little use which it
would now serve for harbor defense.
The lower part of the city is in great need
Of such o health-giving breathing space.
This plan should surely be carried out.

CROKER STILL OPPOSED TO UNION.
He Believes n Three-Cornersd Fight Means

He Believes n Three-Cornersd Fight Means
$4,000 Moro Cleveland Votes.
A prominent Tammany Hall maj said to-
day: II had a long talk with COMMISSIONS
Croker q few days ago. He is as much OPP
posed to a union with the County Democracy
as ever, and he sincerely believes hat a
three-cornered fight will help Cleveland
IL, 900 votes in this city. He believes that
Cleveland will have 10000 more votes in the
county than Harrison. and that Cleveland
will have at least $1,000 plurality in New
York, Kings, Queens, Suffolk aud Richmond
counties"
ON what does he base his calculations ?"
"Well. ne thinks Blaine got 20, 900 Demo-
cratic votes in 1884 that Harrison will not
GET
hurt the Democratic ticket?"
Commissioner Croker does not take any
stock IN the free trade scare. He says that
the w~orkingmen Know who their friends are
and cannot be fooled by the Republican
bugaboo. the monopolist. manufacturers
and trust combines. The workingmen, he
says, understand the tariff question and know
that a high protection only puts none in
the pockets of the ~monopolists and the rich,
grinding manufacturers"
Who does the Commissioner favor as the
Tammany Hall nominee for Mayor ?"
You may say that he has no favorite can
didate. l do not believe he has even thought
Of the most available candidate. Croker is
deal, but says very little. You can rest az
sured that up to date not one of the men
talked of as the probable nominee Of the
Wigwam has received any promise from
Croker"

nomination 7"
Z" think Tammany Hall will Sand a united
delegation to the State Convention in favor
Of Hills denomination l do not imagine
there Is any.doubt about 1t. I hope the Coun-
ties will send a delegation to the convention
opposed to Hill. That would help Tammany
Hall in its local fight"

The Terrible WsudeS~ Plunge OF

Another instance of miraculous escape
in the case of a child falling from O
lofty elevation occurred yesterday at the
tenement-house at 1928 Monroe street, and in
some respects the case is one of the most re-
markable on record. To the people in the
neighborhood it will be O nine-days' wonder
and to-day it is the only topic of conversa-
ton thereabouts.
Isaac Kobliner, q conductor on the Grand
street cross-town line, lives on the third
floor in the rear of the tenement, with his
wife and two little girls, Johanna and Mamie.
three and a half and two years old, respec-
lively.
About 4 O'Clock yesterday afternoon the
mother happened to be called out of the
room for q moment, and she left the two
children playing on the sofa. o..
While she was in the hallway she heard O
scream from one of the children, and, run
ming back was Mortified to catch q glimpse of
both the little ones disappearing .headlong
from the window, which had been left open.
Her frantic cries aroused the whole neigh
borhood. and when 1t was learned what had
happened every one made q rush for the
yard, expecting to find the dead and mangled
bodies of both the children. Their surprise
and amazement may be imagined when, in
stead of meeting with any horrible spectacle.
they found that neither of the children were
seriously hurt, and the younger, with only q
bruise and a slight cut on the forehead, was
being helped TO her feet by the elder.
1t took some time to convince the mother,
who was almost crazed with fright and grief,
to believe that her babies had suffered no
harm, and O physician was summoned before
she would be assured hat they were in no
danger.
1t appears that the two children, taking ad-
vantage of their mothers absence, had
clambered upon the low sill of the French
window, which was forbidden ground. and
the younger one of them, losing her balance,
had toppled over. The elder grabbed her
dress to save her. but the weight was too
heavy, and they both went over together in
close embrace.
The distance to the ground is about forty
feet, and there is O brick areawev directly
under the window. II they had fallen into
this they would undoubtedly have been
killed, but q clothesline at the second story
broke the force of their fall and threw them
outwards so that they fell upon the grass
plot beyond and then rolled into the area.
way. Which is about FIVE feet deep, where
they received their bruises.
To-day the little ones are as bright and
from the fright caused by their fall. Two
big brown-paper p~lasters are the only
"reminiscences of the accident. Mrs. Kobliner
is the only one who has not got over the
shock, and she says she will never recall the
scene without a feeling of horror.
There are now two big bars across that
window.
