A WEAK CASH

The question has been raised in the
Borden case whether magistrate should
sit in preliminary hearing who has al
ready acted as coroner in the same case.
The legal question may be a doubtful one
in the abstract; but in the concrete it is
indisputable that judge should not sit
unless he can hear the case impartially.
This the magistrate in question has shown
that he could not do, by committing the
daughter of the murdered man without
enough tangible evidence to make a
shadow of a case.
it's rumOred that the prosecution has evi-
dence in reserve. Possibly it has; but the
purpose of keeping evidence back does not
justify committal without prima facie
showing of guilt The decision in this
case rests the committal on the fact that
the defendant was on the premises at the
time of the murder and that she has
made such inconsistencies in her state
ment as saying at one time that she went
to the barn to get piece of tin, and at
another that she went to get a piece
of lead for sinkers in fixing door,
it being quite possible that she went to get
either. On such case girl is held on
the charge of parricide in the most brutal
and shocking form. There is not so far
evidence enough to hold street arab on
the charge of prigging fruit from stand.
1t is possible that more evidence may be
forthcoming at the final trial. Up to the
present time, however, the charge against
Lizzie Borden, so far as the public is in.
formed, is wholly unsupported by tangi-
BILE evidence.

AN OBVIOUS INCONSISTENCY.

The New York World has been investi-
eating the railway operated by storage
battery between Milford and Hopedale in
Massachusetts, and finds it well adapted
for city use. Its report affords strong
evidence that the road has a successful
storage battery system; that it obviates
the overhead trolly wires; that it is noise
less as compared with trolley or cable
propulsion; that the electrical power in
each instance is only that required to
move single car; and that years expe-
rience has proved it to be reliable and eff
,ient. For these reasons the World recon-
mends its adoption in New York.
This is interesting and important infor-
nation; but its appearance in that es-
teemed cotemporary marks an inconsis t.
ency. For some time past the World has
been pu blishing attacks on "the deadly
trolley" giving lists of the accidents oc-
curing on lines where it is In operation.
These lists were made up almost entirely
of accidents occurring, not from the special
character of the trolley, but from the use
of any power giving higher speed that
the jog-trot of the car-horse. Out of
thirty to sixty accidents reported in each
list from Boston to Columbus, not more

Psychological Society Of London.

Facts Brought to Light Through the
Psychological Society Of London.
Apropos of the article Marching Phan-
TOMS" which appeared in the DISPATCH sew
eral weeks ago, a correspondent sends this
interesting bit of information:
Some time ago the Psychological Society
of London distributed in various parts of
Europe a paper containing the following
question: "Have you ever, while in good
health, and believing yourself to be awake,
seen the figure of person, or heard a voice
which was not in your view referable to any
external cause?" In England II O1O answers
were obtained. and about one in 10 persons
who had answered had had some such
hallucination in their lives. The great ma
jority OF those hallucinations consisted of
realistic appearances of living men, small
minority of dead persons and a still smaller
group of grotesque objects. A remarkable
class was that of hallucinations of several
persons at one time-collective halucina-
tions; and Il still more remarkable class was
of demonstrations cotncidental with some
distant event unknown to tho percipient,
such as the death of the person whose figure
had appeared. The president of the con-
gress came to the conclusion that after care
full allowance for all sources of error, the
probability against these coin cidences being
chance was enormous. 1t was found to be
very difficult to secure q large number of
answers in France because OF the dislike
shown by the French to answer any psychic
logical questions about themselves. Such
are the facts; what about the explanations?
Pittsburg dispatch. [volume] (Pittsburg [Pa.]) 1880-1923, 1892-09-04
NOT A GOOD RECORD.

The German record in the matter OF the
cholera is the reverse of creditable. The
action of the physicians and men of sci
ence is devoted and heroic; but the course
of municipalities and Government officials
is such as to justify the establishment of
non-intercourse by other nations until the
plague is over.
1t may be rem embered that while the
cholera was still in Eastern Russia The
DISPATCH commented on the proposal of
the Hamburg authorities to ship emigrants
from the dangerous districts on condition
that they did not communicate with the
people of Hamburg. Hamburg was will
ing to spread cholera all over the world so
that she kept clear of the contagion. At
that time THE DISPATCH said that the
United States should take early steps to
exclude all vessels coming from Hamburg
1t is worthy of note that exactly this
course was taken with the passengers on
the steamer Moravia. Whether the United
States was early enough in excluding all
vessels from the port that had notified
the world of its willingness to dissent
nate cholera remains to be seen. But
there is fearful case of natural justice in
the fact that Hamburg was the first city
west of the Russian border to be seized by
the disease.
The statements that are made giving
false figures as TO the progress of the
disease in Hamburg and Berlin are also
examples of an extremely discreditable
course. 1t is well to minimize panic.
That can be best done by the thorough
precautions which reduce the power of
the epidemic to minimum. Panic may
be prevented by cultivating calm and
clear understanding of the methods of
combating the disease. But to cultivate a
feeling of confdenceon such false grounds
as the assertion that there were 139 cases
in day when there are really 1876, is
nothing short of criminal mendacity.
II is, of course, hard to fight an epi-
demic; but every city ought to do its best
to isolate the disease instead of spreading
it, and to tell the truth instead of lying
about it.

THE NEEDED INVENTION.

Prof. Alexander Graham Bell claims to
have established telephone communication
between two ships at sea two miles apa +
without connecting wires. This convey
a promise that the Professor will be
able in time to give us telephone COM
munication on land without wire.
Yet when we come to consider the prac-
teal results that are likely to flow from
such a development cold doubt creeps
over US 1t is not the stock of wires that
costs. If Prof. Bell would discover
some way to telephone without using the
instruments which he makes the public
pay for several times over each year, that
would be an advance-if the inventor did
not insist on making US pay more for not
using the instruments. Although there is
a hint that we might telephone without
supplicating central for an hour and
half to connect us with number blankety-
blank, there is reason to fear that the
aerial exchange would frequently prove
as variable as the deities who exacerbate
our tempers by manipulating the present
switchboards.
If Prof. Bell wishes to strike a
great public need let him invent way to
let the public have good telephone service
at reasonable prices.

Of words at the beginning and end of line
was exact, the "fs" were accurately dotted
and every small "t'' bore its appropriate
cross Not a single flourish or unnecessary
mark appeared, and the whole was symmet-
rical from address to signature. 1t showed
the habit of the man as known to the public
more perfectly than any number OF photo
graphs or written descr1ptions-a man so
drilled to details and SO methodical of life
that the results appear in everything he
does.
"Mr. Cleveland receives an immense mail, !"
continued Colonel Stealey. THE number
of his letters that appear in print are quite
insignificant compared to the whole num-
Der. They are mostly formal. polite notes
topics. His mail probably averages q hun
dred day. judging from what saw. His
stenographer sorts the mali. opens every
thing and lays those that require immediate
that are personal in separate stacks, SO that
the ex-Prestdent can go through any class
by itself. His replies are mostly through q
stenographer. though many personal letters
are written every day by his own hand. He
dictates rapidly and can clear up a good
deal of work between fishing hours and yet
have time to keep we'll posted on what Is be-
ing said about politics In the newspapers.
This Is mainly owing to his methodioal way
of doing things. 1t is wonderful how much
a man can accomplish when he goes about
things in that way"
Agree on the Peck Report.
The first ripple of the campaign felt
about national headquarters was the famous
Peck report. The effect was omewhat
amusing.
The Republican managers declared It was
bomb shell.
The Democratic managers siad 1t was an
egg-shell.
Both agree that it was shell.

ton. But that is Imimportant beside the
principle involved. What has become OF
our esteemed cotemporary's assurance
made in an &c crthedra manner six
months ago that the combination would
not suppress competition in the coal busi-
ness; that on the contrary 1t was
to bring into existence new CON-
petition; and that the utmost 1t
could do was the much promised
and highly praised equalization OF
prices?" Our esteemed cotemporary has
made afresh the discovery that the result
of such combinations is ALWAYS 20 equalize
prices up and never down; that the absorp-
ton of parallel and competing lines never
is for the purpose Of increasing compe-
tition; and that when practical monop-
oily secures the power to advance prices,
it will do so to the uttermost farthing.
1t is satisfactory that the exigencies OF
the stock market have permitted that
once independent journal to make this
important discovery, although it is six
months late in doing so.
