THE FARCE DISASTER.

IL has been developed as a result of the barge
! disaster on Wednesday that there is no law
whatever enabling the Steamboat Inspection
! Service to provide for the safety OF barges not
propelled by steam. No inspection is had OF
them; they are under no restraint. Except for
certain prescriptions as to their equipment, re-
quiring them to carry boat or two and few
life preservers, the laws give them no atten-
ton; and even as to this equipment there is no
authority enabling inspectors to render the law
effectual. They have no legal right to board
barge. Its owners are entirely at liberty, so
far as the laws are concerned, to carry all the
people they please, and to run their boats until
they fall to pieces by actual decay
There seems to be little reason to doubt that
the deplorable accident at Cold Spring was due
to the rotten condition of the barges hurricane
deck faStenngs and supports. The squall was
heavy, but by no means remarkable. 1t ought
to have done a hundred other things to the
barge before tearing her deck away. Such yes
sells, of course, are never safe. The laws OF
mechanics are not merely defed but inSulted
in their construction. 1t is amazing that there
have been so few accidents attending their en-
ployment by crowds of excursion parties, for
they were built to capsize. Nobody who knows
what wind and water can do with the centre
of gravity of even stout steamships would think
of venturing his life in one of these barges.
OF all possible calamities, however, the one
that befell the Republic was the most unlikely
We observe that the agent of its owners de-
clares that the deck supports were sound, but
he asks us to believe a physical abSurdlty
Curtains were fastened from the top-decll to
the deck below to shield the excursionists from
the rain and it is claimed that the wind sud-
denly "belliedn the curtains and produced
lateral strain on the declx-Supports which they
were never intended to bear. This is specious
but unsound Ii the decks fastenings had been
secure and its supports good, all the wind there
was on Long Island Sound yesterday could not
have disturbed them. 1t might have torn the
curtains into shreds or capSized the barge but
it could not possibly have lifted the deck. Such
an explanation is neither sensible nor neces-
sary. The fact that the barge was twenty-SlX
wears old and that there is no law requiring It's
inspection by the Government sufficiently ac-
counts for the affair without imposing on the
laws of physics. Horrible as the catastrophe
was, the responsibility for it, in view of the
law, will not be easily fixed The inspection
service should promptly prepare for submission
to Congress such amendments as will be sufli-
Gent to give them the same control over this
class of bargeS as they are empowered to exer-
else for the pubic's protection over other YES
sells carrying human freight.

Two more Cinnamon suffering from leprosy
have been discovered in the city, but there ap-
pears to be no way Of isOlating them and keep
ing them from contact with their countrymen
and the public at large unless with their own
consent. The Health Commissioners are not in
accord a. to the necessity of isolation, but DR..
Edison, Chief of the Bureau of Contagious Dis
eases, is convinced that leprosy is contagious
and that lepers should be kept apart from other
people. This is the second time within few
weeks that the question has arisen. The pub
lie will not breathe with entire freedom until
it is answered definitely. Common-sense die
tates that no risk should be taken in so grave
matter, while no cruelty or injustice to the
lepers will be tolerated.
