A STARTLING WARNING.


The mills Of the gods grind slowly, but
they grind exceeding fine, and It would
seem that Justice herself had taken part In
the indictment of tho President Of the
New York Central Railroad for tho re-
sponsibility Of the tunnel horror Of
Fob. Goth. True, he was indicted as q
dirvctor Of the New Haven Railroad, but
the warning is the same, and the New York
Central may bc made TO realize that should
another accident happen In It's unsafe tun.
mel punishment will be inflicted upon its
officers with unstinted hand.
Tho Grand Jury appears to be determined
that the directors : Of the New Haven
Railroad Company shall not escape
through any technically. The indict-
ment against them oontains seven counts.
The first count charges the corporation and
the indicted men, a. directors, with mis-
demeanor. Tho second count holds the in
dicted men responsible as individuals. Tho
third count charges that the corporation vio-
lated the law, and that the defendants, as d.
rectors, aided and abetted. The fourth
count charges tho defendants, as indi-
viduals, with aiding and abctting the cor.
poration. The fifth count charges the de-
PENDANTS with operating q railroad, as
individuals, which used the stove un-
lawfully in its cars. The sixth count
charges that the corporation operated tho
rond, and violated the law In the use Of
the stove, and that the defendants, as d.
rectors, caused the stove to be used on the
road. The seventh count charges the de-
PENDANTS, as directors, with causing the
road to use the car stove.
The penalty Is imprisonment in the Pcni-
tentiary for q period not exceeding one
year, or o fine not exceeding $500, or
both dne and Imprisonment at the dis.
cretion OF the Court. The Directors OF
the New Haven Railroad are indicted for
misdemeanor. Should another accident
occur In the tunnel, the officers Of the New
York Central would undoubtedly be In
dicted for homicide, the punishment for
which is appallingly severe. To the intelli-
gent observer II would seem that the
directors OF this Company would rather
mako the tunnel safe than run the risk OF
gong to prison or feeling responsible fol
causing loss Of life.

ventila,ing and lighting Of the Fourth Ave
