New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1891-03-16

The number OF inccndary fires which have
occurred recently in one quarter of Brooklyn Is
extraordinary. and the failure of the police to
discover the mscreant is also extraordinary,
tbouph in another sense. The fire on Saturday
night was the second which has occurred in the
same building within month. There IS no ques-
ton that it was the work of an inccndlary. Eight
families were endangered by IT, but fortunately
IL was discovered before making great Roadway.
The police and detectives will be sadly remSs IN
their duty if they permit this sort of thing TO con-
tinuc.

New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1891-03-16

Adjournment is drawing near at Trenton, and
the people of NewJersey must begin to breathe
more freely at the thought that the opportunities
of the Democratic Legislature for i'll will he
ended in few days. There must be rapid work
if the adjournment is reached on Friday, but the
party bosses have set their hearts on securing
whatever credit may come from short session.
The Encouragement OF Assembly and Congress
districts remains to be made: but it is known
that in both parrisanship OF decided type will be
the controlling feature. About the only good
thing to be said about the New-Jersey Legs
lature of 1891 is that, while it has been very
bad, it might have been worse.
Our Albany correspondent discusses to-day
the question Of the disposition Of New.York's
share of the sum to be distributed under the act
repeating the Direct Tax law. The two plans
under consideration have already been discussed
at some length in these columns. One is TO Use
the money in the purchase of lands for State
Park in The AdirondacliS: the other proposes to
eypend tic $1,000 600 in improving the reads
OF the State. There is much to be said in favor
Of each OF these suggestions. 1t would be Obvi-
Ously. however, serious objection to the use OF
the money for roads if the expenditure were to
be directed by The Superintendent Of Public
Works Mr.. Hannah is too much subject to bad

A Six-Year Old Boy Run Over by Buggy
and Perhaps Fatally Injured.
Albert letters, little boy six years
of age, and son of a. Fetters, machin-
ist at the Roanoke Machine Works, was
run over at the picnic grounds ycster-
day by buggy and seriously injured.
The accident happened about
o'clock. Mr.. Fetters was walking with
his children, and had stopped at the
edge Of the woods TO speak TO a friend
when buggy dashed by, knocking the
little follow down. One of the wheels
ran over his head.
The buggy contained a man and
woman. The horse was checked for a
moment, and the man looked out at the
prossrate child bleeding on the ground
and then dashed off. No one knew him
and Mr.. Fetters could not then follow
him up. He picked up his child and
carried him TO a house near by. The
little fellow was bleeding from the nose,
ears and mouth.
Soon afterward he was taken homo
and Drs. Downey and Kirk summoned,
who found the base OF the skull hal
been fractured and an artery ruptured.
They regard the child's condition as
serious.
An effort is being made to find the
man who drove the buggy and war
rant will be issued for his arrest.
Al late hour last night the little
sufferer was no better. and but little
hopes Of his recovery are entertained.
