The investigation into the origin of the fire
at Secretary Tracy's which destroyed his wife
and daughter and came so near to ending his
life viii not have accomplished any material
benefit unless it shall secure for the occupants
OF residences hereafter to be built greater i'm
munity from peril That handsome house.
erected at considerable cost and supplied with
all the modern conyeniences, should prove
mere fre-trap to ensnare its owner and his
family Is serious public concern. Just as this
thing happened yesterday it may happen to-
morrow and every day unless a wholesome
and strict supervision by the public authorities
prevents. That supervision is demanded by
more than 100000 people. The lesson of the
burning Of Secretary Tracy's house is very diff
ferent from the lesson of the burning of the
Boston houses last Sunday, to which The STAR
has called attention. In the latter money was
not spent to ensure the safety of the occupants.
1t was case of pure criminal parsimony But
in the former the residence was turned out to
Its first owner as complete job-it was sup
posed to be entirely safe. The public is
awakened rudely by this fire with its attendant
horrors to the utter insecurity of many of the
fashionable residences that are now con-
structed at great cost The feeling is general
that we must have closer inspection Of all new
buildings. The modern city home with its nu-
merous devices, using electricity as o servant
and profting by all the ingenuity of the Amer
lean inventor, is a marvel of convenience and
comfort. But not the same attention has been
given to security. Flues and pipes conduct
hot air or steam through combustible walls and
floors. The wood adjacent to the pipes and
fues, which are often effectively constructed,
chars and finally takes fire, and the modern
palace becomes a mere fre-trap roasting its
occupant with quick flames fed by combustible
convepiences and Injuries

The absence Of the President and his cabinet
from the judicial centenary in New York today,
due to recent calamitous events in the family
Of two Of the most distinguished of the Secre-
taries, will detract somewhat from the impress
iveness of the ceremonies on the occasion
But there will be, nevertheless, very much to
remind the participants, the American people
in general, and lovers of orderly freedom
throughout the world, of the PROCESS from an
ili-adjusted, wholly insufficient confederation
of state governments to a federal republic Or
gained by and for the people of the United
states-a government with three great subdi-
visions Of powers. OF these, the Judiciary has
not been, like the others, entrusted with Gre
alive functions. But the operation Of its
powers has been the same in effect as if they
were creative. The Supreme Court has defined
the Constitution in such q manner as to undo
mere political revolutions, using the latter
word in its subordinate sense of great but con-
additionally effected political changes but the
tradition from the beginning has been un-
broken, and the snimus of the judiciary, bar
ring the slight prejudices inseparable even in
judicial minds from human nature, has been
one of a fair construction Of national powers in
accordance with the consensus Of opinion in
sne country tnrouSnoutlts history. Inc names
OF the illustrious citizens and eminent lawyers
who have held the scales of justice since the
court was organized is a sufficient guarantee Of
the patriotic honesty Of the tribunal Count
ing Rutledge, who held the Office Of Chief
Justice few months, there have been eight
Chief Justices-John Jay, of New York; John
Rusledge, Of South Carolina; Oliver Ellsworth,
Of Connecticut; John Marshall, of Virginia;
Roger Brooke fancy, of Maryland; Salmon
p. Chase, of Ohio; Morrison R Waite, of
Ohio, and Melville W. Fuller, of Illinois, the

The constitutionality Of anti-Mormon legis-
lation has been decided affirmatively by the
highest court of appeals in the land. Yester-
day the Supreme Court refused the application
for writ Of habeas corpus of Samuel D..
Davis Of Idaho, sentenced for unlawfully
taking the prescribed test oath when he was a
member of the Mormon church. The court
holds that polygamy is q crime and that the
constitutional provision guaranteeing freedom
Of religion is cot intended to prevent punish
ment OF any person who in the name OF religion
commits a crime in the eyes of the law. This
decision is precisely what was expected. The
law that Davis violated was framed by the two
leading lawyers in the Congress of that time,
Senator Edmunds and Representative John
Randolph Tucker. 1t was framed with great
care, having the best ideas in it of the two
eminent men whose names have been given
by the people to the act. The law is not ouly
now established as good law but it is the
expression of the peoples will. At the time o.
its passage through Congress it was clearly seen
to be popular measure, and everything that
has occurred since has tended to fix its popu.
larity. The legislation was wise because timely
and necessary.
