rrSrERpAYS FOG.

consi ,sr;np the unusual density of yester-
davis for. and the number OF accidents of great
or or less degree that resulted, it is matter
for some sunrise and much congratulation
that no more serious injury was done. Con-
t,arv 70 the usual rule, the larger proportion
of casualties was not upon the water, where
the fog has always been supposed to have its
special dominion. The elevated roads have
changed all that, and several disagreeable ex-
rariences have now served to remind travellers
On those roads that the man who is taking a
fve-cent ride a few feet above the ground on
a smooth track may be in greater danger than
tba man who has only the thickness of few
nlanks between him and the waters of New
York Bay.
The accidents on the elevated roads in New
yorr and BROOKLYN were very similar. In
each case moving train struck train in front
that was standing still at station. In the
accident on Ninth-aye., however, the first col
Iision had hardly occurred before third train
strucl< the second. Fortunately, neither Of the
colIidino trains was moving rapidly, and the
damage was not great. One brakeman and two
nassenoers suffered some injuries, but only Of
a superficial nature. 1t is explained that the
men who are detailed to flag tho track at reg
Mar intervals in case Of fog, which came down
in this case very suddenly, were hurrying to
their posts when the collision took place. 1t
is also true that all the men seem to have be-
baved with commendable promptness and en-
orgy. and at the same time with caution, after
the accident.
But IL seems none the less true that neither
accident ought to have taken place. Nayiga-
tion ON the elevated roads ought to be COM
naratively a simple matter, and the obvious
duty of the engineers Of all these trains, when
a sudden fog obscured the way, and before the
fog signals were available, was to run so slow
that the trains could have been stopped within
few feet. This seems so clear that the ut
terance of IL becomes the veriest platitude.
Yet it was disregarded in these instances, and
that neglect cost several passengers experiences
which we should use great mildness in de-
scribing as extremely annoying The travel
lers On the elevated roads should be guaran-
teed against injuries Of any kind and 1t is not
always oonsoling to be told that the case might
have been worse. No doubt the persons who
were badly shaken up yesterday were glad 10
find themselves safe IN life and limb, but il
is not likely that they were precisely grateful
TO the company for knocking out their front
teeth.
At the risk again Of dwelling upon obvious
facts. il may be well enough to note that the
only life lost in these accidents was thrown
away in sheer panic. The first rule in trouble
of this kind is to keep firm grip on ones wits.

NHK YoRNS HARBoR IN DANGER.

"Let New-York look out for her own har-
Dor n in what some Of tho Southern and West
ern members Of the House Committee on APP
propriations said when they were asked 70 give
favorable consideration 10 the bill providing
means for more efficient policing OF the har-
Dor, and for the protection Of its channels from
destruction by the continued dumpings OF
dredgings and other solid material. Congress
men Belden, Of Syracuse, and Campbell, OF
Brooklyn, seem TO have made an urgent but
vain appeal to tho other members Of the com
mittee. Members from the interior apparently
find il difficult TO understand that Newly ork
Harbor is the most important in the United
States; that there are collected at This port
from 65 to 20 per cent Of the entire customs
revenues Of the country, and that unless the
closest watch is kept upon wilful violstors OF
the law and efforts are made to bring them 10
punishment, the navigation Of the harbor viii
be jeopardized.
Recognizing the necessity for a moro thor
ough supervision Of the harbor to preserve its
navigation for all classes OF vessels, and having
the knowledge that numberleSs scowioads oil
dredgings were being dumped in the channels
and in the North and East rivers under cover
of darkness the Chamber Of Commerce, the
Maritime and Produce exchanges, and other
commercial bodies appealed TO Congress, and
an act was passed on June 20, 1888, placing
the harbor under the supervision OF the War
Department, and providing for the Office Of
Supervisor Of the Port. An officer Of the Navy,
Lieutenant j. j. Hunker, was detailed as the
Supervisor on November 10, and since that
time has had his Office in the Barge Office. He
has apprehended several persons who found it
more convenient to dump their drcdgings with
in the boundaries of the harbor than to carry
them out to sea. Lieutenant Hunker has 90
miles Of waterfront to look after, his jurisdic-
ton reaching a considerable distance up the
Long Island Sound. He has not means sufi-
cient to carry on the work, in which not only
New-York City, but tho whole country, is di-
rectly interested. He has asked for S9i 900,
with which to provide small steamer, supplies,
assistants, ETC., and for the maintenance and
support Of the office for the next fiscal year,
and he ought to get il. With that amount Of
money at his disposal, he can accomplish re-
suits Of the highest importance and value.

nav higher prices for plates by the box, though
scarcely any advance even in this case is to be
expected in tin-ware or utensils. But it is at
least as probable that the ring of tin plate
makers in England will be forced to put down
the price, in order to keep part of their GUS
toners; and so the cost Of the plate by the
quantity may not be even temporarily en-
HANGED. In either case, decline Will come
when home competition reduces the prce to
the minimum, and the question is whether the
permanent gain will not far outweigh any tenn
porary sacrifice.
One other lesson of the highest Importance
will attract public attention. All carpet man
ufacturers have to bear a burden, because Of
the dishonest evasion of duty which has been
practised by few Of their number. Many
million pounds Of wool have been imported by
certain manufacturers, who professed that il
was for carpet use only, and who had it so
mixed and packed abroad that the fraud was
successful After getting in The wool at the
lowest duty as nothing but carpet wool, they
sorted out large part of it for clothing use.
This long-continued deception has made it i'm
possible to admit at low duties wool for use in
carpets without subjectng growers of clothing
wool to destructive competition. The change
which the Senate has proposed, if finally adopt
ed, will largely increase the growth of the
coarse carpet wool in Texas, the South and the
Territories, and will probably help the grow
ers of clothing wool more than the advance in
duties on imported wool Of the same kind
The measure which has passed the Senate
by the vote of every Republican Senator makes
a larger reduction of revenue than was at first
contemplated by the Senate Committee. Pos
sibly it may render necessary some economy in
expenditures, but if so, that will also be a
benefit. While stopping the collection of a
revenue which the Government does not want,
the bill will add largely to the number OF
American workers employed 1t is probably
within the mark to estimate that 100000
more Americans can be set at work, instead Of
foreigners, TO produce articles now purchased
from abroad, If this bill becomes law in its
present FORM The wages paid TO them will
20 TO farmers for food, to cloth makers and
boot and shoe makers for clothing, to house
owners for rents or workers homes, and in a
thousand ways will be distributed in this coun-
try to increase the rewards of American in
dustry. Those who vote for Democratic
policy instead, let it be understood vote to
send the money to Europe there to be expended
in supporting European workers. farmers and
capitalists.

Uvr0y r0R PROTECTION.

The country does not hear any longer that
the Republicans have gone to pieces on the
tariff question II used TO be meat and drink
TO the Democrats to read highly spiced ac-
counts of the war between high tariff and low
tariff Republicans, and glowing visions fol-
lowed of the victories which Free Traders
would then achieve. The once familiar strains
are heard no longer. That is the first and pos
sibly the greatest service which the harmonious
action of Republican Senators has accomplished
for the party and the country. They have
proved that genuine Republicans, being sin
cere Protectionists, can differ much about de-
tails and yet agree perfectly upon legislation
in harmony with well-defined principles.
Another benefit resulting from the action of
the Senate is that sound principles regarding
the reduction of revenue are forced upon pub
lie consideration. II is something's so dull have
men come to be in these days, TO have it
demonstrated that revenue can be greatly re
duced without weakening the production Of
home industry. But the Senate has done bet
ter than that. 1t has compelled people to see
that a change. which stops imports will reduce
revenue even more surely than any lowering Of
duties. IL an imported article can be made in
this country, there are always two ways TO re-
duce the revenue; one is to remove duties and
depend on foreigners, and the other is 10 raise
duties and employ more American labor. When
the Senate decided that the right way to deal
with the tin-plate duty was to make it high
enough to secure employment and good wages
TO 10000 more American workers, il set o
lesson which the whole country will soon learn.
Perhaps for year or two the consumers nav
