is conclusive proof of the utility OF the modern
bulkh construction. Melancholy experience
has shown that it is not an absolute guarantee
of buoyancy. The Oregon went down almost
within sight of land only few hours after her
collision with coal schooner. just why hcI
structural safeguards failed so signally to sus-
tain her has never been fully explained though
the suDpoStion is that prior negligence had
something to do with it. But, however that
may be, numerous miShaps have confirmed the
theory that water-tight bulkhcadS greatly
diminish the perls of navigation, and the fact
that the City Of Paris is now lying at Queens
town dock instead OF at the bottom of the sea
is a triumphant demonstration Of their value.
But when every reasonable tribute to her
design and workmanship has been paid, IT Is
proper and not only proper but important to
consider how far and how justly her breakdown
may be attributed to the conditions which she
was built TO meet She had made the record,
and it was her special mission to see that 1t
was not broken except by herself. Speed was
her most famous attribute. if not her vocation.
The strain to which machinery Is subjected by
such velocity as hers is enormous; lnconcelV-
able without the help Of figures and incapable
Of being precisely estimated with their help
II is doubtless true that an Atlantic liner OF
the old type could not have survived such an
injury as that which left the City Of Paris still
able 10 staggcr into port but il may also be
true that 4 vessel of the old type runs far loss
risk Of sustaining Il pr0poltlonatc shock ana
breach from within. Moreover. slppoSng that
an ocean racer is built to withstand the utmost
strain that ,nn be put upon her. how long Will
this original power Of endurance remain I'M
diminished? That metallic fabrics dctcrloratc
under obscure conditions in obedience 10 an
unknown law j. nowhere disputed nor IS the
still more disquictng fact denied that they
commonly disclose no signs of such delenora-
lion. The city of Paris had often steamed
faster than she was stoaming last Tuesday
afternoon and against greater Obstacles WHY
did some part of her machinery suddenly sue
clmb TO a pressure less than that which it had
repeatedly resisted?
TUE TRIBUNE recently rccounted some OF
the arguments. in part sound and in part, we
think. fantastic. which are used 10 prove that
speed i, an element of safety at sca. We re-
marked m that time that the problem WAS
complicated one. We do no, know that the
experience OF tho Cry of Paris has made it
>implor.

actly what this meant we have some difficulty
TO imagine 1t may have meant that they were
impressed by the mitigating circumstances
which the defendants pleaded 1t may have
meant that they believed the frank and not I'M
manly story told by MeekS upon the witness
stand Whatever it meant. it's meaning was
undoubtedly creditablc to the Jury. They had
done their duty fcaIlesSly and faithfully, and
if they felt. upon the whole that the defend
ants. though guilty, were entitled to be mercl-
fully dealt WITH they did right TO say so, and
Judge Barrett did right to give consideration
to their appeal. His remark that the proper
administration of justice calls for good faith
and perfect confidence between the magistrate
and the jury is certainly true. and while neither
should substitute the others conscience ana
Judgment for his own, each should pay to the
other the highest consideration and respect
This relation is always remarked in Judge Bar
rett's court. 1t proceeds in the largest meas
urc from his own pure character and high in
telligcncc 1t almost always results in sub
Stantial justice.
Colonel Fellows spoke the sentiment Of the
community when, after all the appeals for
mercy had been heard he said that whatever
satisfied the mind OF the court would satisfy
the people. The people do not seek vengeance.
They are not lost to the usefulness nor to the
beauty of mercy These convicted men have
already paid high price for their folly and
wicicdncss. TO this must now be added the
degradatiOn OF Imprisonment. II the total ne

judge Barrett and jury Of New Workers
have once more Vindicatcd the administration
Of Justice in this city against the cynical as
snmpticn that rich and powerful raScals can
ride with impunity rOugh>hod over our laws.
After all the DELAYS and all the wcariSOmc round
Of legal bacl,mgs and filings, Flacl, no longer
the Sheriff Of New York, no longer a political
macnatc. has been convicted and sentenced.
Most people will undoubtedly be surprised at
the extreme clemcncy shown by the court i'll
the puni.hmcnts inflicted Flacks crime was
outragcously impudcnt and lis motive utterly
base. He procured in his wfcs name 4 divorce
from himself. 50 that he might marry his para

ed Justice and bitterly wronged 4 woman who
had been forty years his wife in order 10 graf

ever. did not readily admit of trial except
for a conspiracy to ccmmi, fraud upon the
courts and this offence was only msdc-
mcanor, punishable by fine Of $500, im-
priSonment for one year. or both.
Most people will agree that Flack and his
son. and McelS as well, earned all of this, and
even more The jury, however in conyicting
them. saw fit to make most unusual sug
cestion to the Judge. They urged him 10 eXer-

March has gone out as it came in, with low,
suen, lion like roar. The resources of the
winter had been reserved for this one dismal
month, and there will be a general feeling OF
relief that it is ended and there is now a
promise of genuine spring weather. A winter
of one stormy and rainy month supports the
theory which is sometimes advanced that there
have been marked changes in the Northern
climate during recent years In the tropics
and on the Equator winter is simply rainy
season and the winter here has hardly been
anything more this year.
