BURNED.

G. H. Platt, general manager of the
Harlem line, and D. B. Mccoy, superin-
tendent of the New York Central road,
visited the scene of the accident, and q
large force of men we're put at work re-
moving the debris. A wrecking train was
also sent for and the work of conveying
the wrecked cars to Spuyten Duyvl was
begun. The last vestige of the wreck was
carried away from the scene of the disas-
ter yesterday afternoon, but trains were
not running regularly to New Haven until
last night. Of the Wagner dining-car
nothing remained to be taken away save
the trucks and some other work. The
flames consumed all the infammable ma
terial.
GENERAL MANAGER FUTILE INTERVIEWED.
Regarding the catastrophe, General Man
ager Tuttle of the Consolidated railroad
said late yesterday afternoon: AS the &C
cident did not occur on our territory, but
on the tracks of the New York Central
railroad, that road will investigate the
case. Our trains run over these tracks
subject to their system of signals. Super
intendent Shepard in New York has made
inquiries regarding the cause of the col
lision, and from him I have received a
telegram stating that the crew of the 7:O2
train state that the signal which the train
passed before the accident indicated
"clear." The killed were all employed by
the New York Central None on the New
Haven train were killed. The loss of life
is the sad part of the accident. The broken
engine can be repaired, the damaged cars
can be put in order, but the loss Of life is
.irreparable. This is the saddest part of
the affair"
The cause of the accident will be thor
oughly investigated, both by the managers
of the Central railroad and by the civil
authorities of New York. An engine COM
ing down soon after the accident ran into
part of the wreck on side track, but
very little damage was done at this time

In the case of the indicted New Maven
railroad directors Judge Patterson said
on the motion to remove the case from
the general sessions to the oyer and ter.
miner:
There can be no incidents u ufs which would
entitlo one class OF persons under indictment
to be tried In "a tribunal Of their own selection
simply because they happened 10 be prominent
politically In the community or Of high per
soual worth and character.
Commenting on these remarks the
New York Herald said cd~itorially:
That is tho way to talk. Under our demo
cratic form Of government the law makes no
distinction between rich and poor, or promi-
nent and obscure offenders. In theory, at
least, all must stand on the same level before
the bar Of Justice,
But Judge Patterson allowed the
claims Of the rich mems attorneys, all
the same, and when the matter came be-
fore Judge Van Brunt. of oyer and ter
miner, he struck out Of the grand jury's
indictment two Of the most important
counts Prosecuting Attorney Nicoll de-
clares that the judges action WA CON
trary to all precedents and in opposition
to his own former rulings.
This is the same judge that refused to
allow testimony showing that Joseph
B~arondess was simply the agent of his
union in the collection of 800 from II
cloak manufacturer. and that the money
was turned over to the unions secretary.
The object of this evidence wa to show
that the cloak boss had paid 800 of the
expense incurred on condition that the
strike in his shop be ordered of. Tn.
same judge instructed the jury in the
case SO that it was impossible not to
bring in a verdict of extortion against
Barondess, and then sentenced him to
serve twenty-one months in the state
prison. The case has been appealed and
B%arondess is out ON s., OOO bail.
In theory, yes.

AND { DECAY.

How Wealth AccumuIarss In the HAHAs
of a Comparatively Few
Resuming the subject Of the profits of
capital and labor, we are quite justified
in saying that capital accumulates at the
rate Of 7 per cent. annually, and we have
shown that labor accumulates at the
rate Of 4 per cent. annually. Let US see
what the result of this unjust state Of
affairs will be during the present decade.
As we stated before, very careful est
mates show that on Jan. 1, 1890, $50, 2JO,-
600, 600 worth Of property of this nation
was in the hands of 80, 900 leading CAPT
talists. We nave shown that the aver
age rates Of profits on capital must be at
least z per cent. In ten years at Z per
cent, compound interest, the profits of
the 10000 persons will be S3J, Oj9, 223,-
$50 if the interest be payable annually.
If payable s~emi-annually the interest
will equal the principal.
1t is not probable that the accumulas-
i've capacity Of labor can be maintained
at 4 per cent. during the present decade.
The country is already well supplied
with railroads. Mining operations will
be much more costly than in the past
A great deal of the land hat will be
settled within the next few years will
require irrigation. The home market is
already overstocked with manufactured
goods. 1t will thus be seen that during
the present decade labor will be handi-
capped, and that unless the supply Of
money be greatly increased a given
amount of work will not in many cases
produce as good results as in the last
decade-that is, it is not probable that,
under the present monetary system,
labor will be capable Of improving the
country 10 the extent of 90 per cent.
during the decade ending on Jan. l, 1900.
We shall, however, assume that this can
be done, and that the total wealth Of the
United States will increase from 500, OO0,-
100000 at the beginning Of 1890 TO $780,
100000, 900 at the beginning of 1900. The
increase will be 1913, 900, 600, 600.
As we showed before, the 30, 900 lead
ing capitalists will require $3j, O50, 223,-
$50 TO satisfy their demands. They will
therefore take all the surplus, and the
toilers who produce all the wealth will
nave to mortgage the little property they
nave 10 pay them the g, 1859, 223, $50 Of
difference between the surplus and the
profits demanded.
Besides the 30, 200 leading capitalists,
there are numerous minor capitalists
whose demands will also have to be sat
isfied. 1t can easily be seen, therefore,
that the working people Of this country
will have to mortgage their property to
the extent of several thousands of mill
ions in order to exc out 4 miserable ex-
istence. Is it just that those who toll
almost incessantly should be deprived of
the fruits of their labor By what right
do the national banks take an average of
S.19 per cent. for the use of their money,
when labor has an accumulative capaci-
ty of only 4 per cent.?-San Francisco
Argonnut.

"a New Aristocracy," Birch Arnold's
recent novel, of which, by the way, 1000
copies were sold within four days after
it was placed on the market, carries out
many of the plans suggested in General
Booths scheme for the alienation of the
destitute and criminal classes. The
novel was written before General Booths
book vas given to the world, and it is a
somewhat singular coincidence that the
radical government of the parliament
attached to the Polytechnic institute of
London, England, should, under the in
spiration of General Booths ideas, form
ulate a district improvement bill where
in several clauses e a striking resem-
blance to plans outlined in "a New Aris-
tocracy."
To provide assistance for poor and
overworked mothers; to furnish free
reading rooms, free, frequent and en-
hvening entertainments; to go carefully
into any cases of restitution and to re-
lieve with work if the recipients are
able bodied, if not to make charity as
inoffensiye as possible; to cultivate and
encourage the spirit of independent
manhood and womanhood; to call atten-
ton to the condition of %unsanitary
dwellings; to establish a society of uni
versal brotherhood and to preach the
doctrine of humanity is the aim of this
exceedingly bright and interesting story.
1t is a remarkable coincidence that the
book which has stirred all England to
its center should be reproduced ON many
of it's essential lines almost simultane-
ously in America within the pages Of a
novel which, because of its pathos and
tenderness, is sure of a wide reading

Taxes are paid from the results Of la
Dor. There are no other sources from
which taxes can be obtained. The only
class in this community that pays no
taxes is the pauper class. Some Of these
paupers are found in the county house at
Wayne, and others walk the streets,
dressed in broadcloth. In 80 far rs these
latter do no labor that increases the
wealth of the world or adds to the IN

ing all the world in a kind of fee simple.
He Is the most autonomous and indie
pendent person that lives; he is the pos
sessive case incarnated. With half shut
eyes Of content and contempt he surveys
the busy fellows as they shuttle past him
on the sidewalk. They wear good clothes
that ave money in the pockets, and they
have homes, perhaps, with tables spread
with good things to eat, and pictures on
the walls, but there isn't a thing of them
all, nor all of them, hat your tramp
would take in exchange for the right to
stretch his lazy limbs in the sunshine the
long summer day.
1t never occurs to you, probably, as
you step briskly and superciliously by,
that he is plying you-if he thinks
enough about you in his easy superiority
to pity you at all. That's where tine
tramp has another advantage over you.
He annoys you; you resent hints it
ecaus he suggests to you a higher phil
osophy of life than you own2-but his
calm is as superb as hat of the Ad-
irondacks. Not even your little busting
ways car affront it. An uneasy suspi-
cion comes upon you that he may even
like it, that it may be adding to his con-
tent, as the steady plodding horses on the
highway make the colt in the pasture
kick his heels a little higher.
On the whole, the tramp has the best
of it all, hasn't he? And you and l are
