Two accidents on the Sixth-avc. elevated road
yesterday make bad record. The lilst one may
not have been preyenable. The engine left the
track without any apparent reason, but fortu-
nately at time when the engineer was slowing
up. The other mshap where the engine Of one
train ran into the rear car of the train ahead OF
it, was of course, without excuse. These occur
rences bring sharply to mind the perils Of our ele-
waited system, which nevertheless has had re-
markable immunity from serious accidents in

The question of Governors Hills right 10 par
don Supervisor Welch has been deliberately con-
sdered by Mr.. Matthew Hale, of Albany, an eIni-
nent member OF the bar, and the result OF his in
o,rries is presented on another page. Mr.. Hale
devotes considerable space to the meaning OF the
word conviction" us defined in various judicial
decisions. In general he reaches the same con-
illusions as Ex-Governor Cornell and ex-Judge
Davis, and he regards the Governors assumption
of the RICH, To pardon person committed by a
Judge for contempt of court as most dangerous
thing as respects the Independence and dignity Of
the judiciary. Mr.. Hale believes that the q>S'-
ton now raised ought to be passed upon by the
Court Of Appeals. 1t is to be hoped that steps in
that direction will soon be taken, 50 that the
relative rank of the Executive and Judiciary may
be auth0rtdtivey determined.
