great cosmopolitan and pOverty-stricken
region Of New York city. Its record Of
eviction cases in 1sSO-91 was not as large
as that Of the Fourth district, but this
year the figures are considerably in ex-
cess Of those shown by its crowded rival
which sdjoins it. For the twelve months
preceding October last, the figures were
distributed thus:

blocks within blocks, inside tenements
or rear tenements, as they are called
where the cheering rays Of the sun never
penetrate, and where the howl Of the
hungry wolf Of poverty constantly men
aces the dirty, semi-savRge denizens who
swarm in these human hives. According
to Mr.. Jacob Riis' interesting work,
allow the Other Half Lives" "Three
hundred and thirty thousand and over Of
human beings to the square mile is the
record Of this New York's East End.
The worst record Of that other East End
in old London scarce ever reached half
that figure. 1t has to be; the rent could
not be paid out Of the sweaters wages il
it were not So" It has to be; the rent
must be paid Therefore men and women
huddle together like rats in their holes,
and all for what? In order to pay
Thirteen dollars month for the fiat on
the sixth floor, with modern conveniences
"a sink and pump in the hallway. By
day they crowd together-men, women
and children, dozen in q room made to
hold couple. Father, mother, twelve
children, and six boRrders in this apart
ment OF three rooms. Thirteen
in q room-lodgers, half Of them at S
cents spot; asleep on hunks, on shelves,
on the floor anywhere, to be sheltered
from the wind that finds it's way through
cracks and cbinks with the only breath |
of Gods fresh air that ever enters" 1t |
is In this district that with the year end
ing on September 80, 1892. the enormous
number Of $3.50 dispossess warrants were
issued from Judge Steckler's court.
These were distributed over the year as
follows:
The advocate and Topeka tribune., 1892-12-28

collected $26, which he gave to the poor
woman. She paid her rent, $12, and
went away with blessings on her lips. 1t
was the sight Of life to see that baby
gorge itself in little restaurant in the
neighborhood, just as soon as its half
starved mother could purchase some
thing to eat.
But there were hundreds Of cases like
these arising in the court every year, and
it would be manitestly impossible to take
up subscriptions for all of them. There
were scores of them also in the Seventh
judicial district, which embraces another
peculiar element of New York's varied
population. 1t is in this district that the
big tenement house cigar factories
thrive. All along First avenue from
Seventieth to Ei9htieth streets, those
hives Of sad eyed Hungarian toilers rear
their cornices SIX and seven stories above
the ground. The cigar manufacturers
own these tenements, and it might safely
be added that they own the tenants who
are packed into them. That ia why the
public is shocked occasionally by the an
that scores Of these
wretched tenement slaves are thrown
out on the cobblestones because they
will not sccept cut in wages, or because
they dare to ask for anything like enough
to pay them for their work. Last year
the spectacle Of eSghty of these hGpIess
f'rmilieS IVjng for Week on the sSdeoGlEs
loGs the feature of NeaO YOrk'8 ctOtyizGtiOn
that made English visitors smile in deris-
ion and remark, as one Of them did in
the Brevoort House: "Well Ireland is
not SO badly off under it's English land
lords after all. There an evicted tenant
mas fund on which to draw, contributed
BY Americans. Here the evicted one has
the workhousel" There was no ex-
sggeration Of the facts in that statement.
None Of the tenement house cigar.mRk-
BIS can shelter an evlcted cigar makers
amily. IL such thing should be done,
'ut that offending Samaritan would go!
In that district last year there were
1900 dispossess warrants issued. They
.versged about 800 month. Though
he region embraced by the Seventh
axes in the diamond back" localities of
fifth and Madison avenues, 1T is pretty
afe to say that none Of the "dispossess
warrants" found their way into the brown
tone mansions that line these handsome
treets, but a good many Of the "sen-
ences of death" emanated from those
lutocratic palaces. It was in Justice
Jlancy's court down in the Second dis
riot that a very sad case occurred.
BUSINESS interests are fast crowding the
oor out of this region, but still there
vere 1850 cases Of eviction last year,
nd one of the most pathetic Of these
vas that of q woman who gave birth to |
baby the day after she was turned out
her home. In the thinly peopled
'irst district there were 1920 cases. In
be Third there were 2,1O0; Sixth, 3,400;
llghth, 2,25O; Ninth, 1870; Tenth, 1,13O;
nd Eleventh $50, making a grand total
,r the city for twelve months of 29,720,
eing 5,825 moro than we're issued for
le year 1890, and 2,615 more than the
CURES for the previous year. This total
29,720 cases would represent at the

Judge Steckler states GnRG there mas
been an abnormal growth of evictions in
his district in consequence Of the recent
extraordinary immigration from Russia.
Most Of these unfortunates seek refuge in
what was known as the old Eighth AS
sembly district, whore the density Of
population is greatest, and the slaves of
the "sweRter" are most numerous.
Hundreds Of cases full Of the most
pathetic disclosures are constantly crop
ping up in my court" said the justice.
I" / have made it strict rule to carefully
investigate all landlord and tenant cases,
and where / find worthy defendant l
rarely set the machinery Of law in motion
without first making an effort to have the
landlord give little further period Of
grace, hGOe rarely bOen decsIced by
these poor people. Sometimes I find a
rounder who makes it point to move
from house to house and never pay rent.
For these there is no sympathy. On tho
SOhOle, hOlCeUer, tho people WhO are proceeded
against are tcithOut a cont they can call
their O0n. It is a mystery to me how
they manage to drag on an existence. 1t
happens, in the great majority of cases
which come to my court, that the de-
fendants have been peculiarly unlucky;
they have been unable to secure employ
meDt; they have been laid up with sick
ness; or perhaps the visitation Of death
to their households has depleted their re-
sources 80 that the payment Of rent is an
impossibility. With the landlords of
such people I sometimes manage to rea-
son, and 30 obtain an extension Of time.
Perhaps the granting of weeks grace

get upon their feet, and resume their

or sentences OF DEATH" as they have
been called in Ireland, there were many
cases Of bitter destitution. There were
also some painful evidences Of the terri
BILE greed Of the landlords who charge
the incredible rents they exact from the
tenants in their sitting bowels. / was
told Of woman in James street who oc-
cupied q room for which she paid So a
month rent. She became i'll, and owed
her landlord $1.5O. He hastened to JUS
tice Goldfogle and obtained a dispOssess
warrant. There was no other alternative
for the justice. In the meantime the
woman had applied to the commissioners
Of charities and correction for relief. The
superintendent Of outdoor poor ordered
half tom Of coal to be sent to her home.
The woman was about to store away the
coal when the landlord arrived with his
warrant for the half month'srent. "Here,
you, where are you going with that
coal?" he asked, as he blocked the
wo%in's way. She replied that she was
gong to put it in the cellar locker. "Oh,
no." he thundered, "you don't do any
such thing. | have a warrant for your
dispossession. Get outl" In vain the
woman pleaded. He would not give her
q days grace. At last happy thought
struck her, and she asked, "WiIl you
take thu coal in payment for my rent ? "
He would, and he did, becauee the coal
was worth s275, and he consequently
gained $1.25 on the transaction. So he
removed the coal, and the woman was
allowed to remain. AS soon as the month |
was up, the rascslly landlord got another
warrant, and threw the poor creature |
into the street. In another instance a |
woman living in Ninth street appeared
in court to defend an ejectment suit. She
was picture Of dreGry, dismal poverty. |
Her clothes were tattered, her shoes were
" out at the heel" her features bore that
evidence Of hunger's raw
ages that cannot be concealed, and which
is unhsppily too often witnessed on
Gotham's East Side. In her arms she
carried a pinched- looking little baby.
There were neither shoes or stockings on
it's feet, and it was clad in the miserable
habilameuts that tell Of deep. desperate
penury. The couple looked as if they
had been suddenly picked up by some
genii on the barren hills of Donegal, and
whisked through the air into the heart
Of New York. The landlord asked for
dispossess warrant" He pressed his
suit vigorously, in spite Of the kind
hearted Justices appeal to his humanity.
He would not listen to such sentimental
rubbish as that when his business inter
ssts were involved. The facts were that
his woman did not pay her rent, and he
wanted to let the apartments to some
one who would pay, and that was the
ong and short Of 1t. The woman tear
'ully repeated the story that is so sadly {
'requent in these civil courts. Her hus-
band was sick; she had not any means l
If earning living, and all she wanted &

THE COST OF POOR ROADS.
OFFICIAL eAPER OF. DABLEs>NITY.
AND N~ssco COUNTY.

An interesting contribution TO the dis
cussion of American country roads comes
from Prof. Richard T. Ely, who affirms
that "poor roads cost this country on the
average over 500 horse" He is sus-
tained by Prof. jerks of Knox college,
who thinks 1915 horse is a low esti-
mate for this loss" The board OF trade
of Knoxville, Tenn, has laso made the
suggestive computation that bad dirt
roads cost the people of that one COM
monwealth more than 81 ,000, ,000 year.
From tables made from other statistics
it is also declared that on Il gravel road a
horse will draw nearly one and q half
times the load, and on McAdam over
three times the load ne can draw on the
common dirt road
The losses from time consumed,
from wear on beast and vehicle
and from repairs in indirect ways, fall
principally, of course, upon those engag-
cd in agricultural pursuits. The average
cost which produce carriers bear in haul
ing to the Knoxville market from the
surrounding farming region is estimated
at 1880 a load. This averageitis authori-
tatiyely stated, could be reduced one
half upon good dirt roads and five-sixths
ever good McAdam roads. That is to
say, one OF the CHIEF expenses borne by
farmers is doubled through the extravi-
CANT economy which perpetuates poor
roads. 1t is, comparatively speaking, a
saving OF cents anda spending of dollars.
The amount of money annually lost in
this country from coast to coast through
badly kept highways can only be guessed
at, but it is something enormous.
