Around the building there was a good deal
of speculation as to the accuracy of tho
report that the Judge had ac-
cepted Cabinet portfolio. Judging
from appearances" said one old conrt
official, lit looks very much as if 1t were
true. The Judge has left his seat on the
Court OF Appeals bench to work on decl-
sions in his chambers, and this looks like
he wanted to wind matters up. 1t is un-
usual to say the least for Judge to be so
anxious to get rid of the cases at this sea-

Manslaughter by Trolley.

From the New York Times
When a person Of depraved nature and GRIM
inal conduct is put to death by authority of the
state penalty for taking human life and as
deterrent to others for the protection Of society,"
there is apt to be an outcry against the
barbaritv Of the act from sentiment
talists who are guided rather by
feeling than judgment. Those who
sympathize with the victim to the extent of
doubling his guilt in spite Of proof may de-
nounce ii as Judicial murder. and surviving rel
atives may even be permitted to parade upon
a coffin plate an assumption that the state is
the murderer, to the contempt of lawful au-
thority.
Killing is dreadful business, no doubt,
even if inflicted by the state upon criminals
from the stern necessity Of self-protection, but
it seems to excite less horror when it is done
in pubic streets by corporation
authorized to operate trolley car.
The killing or manning of innocent
persons where this engine of destruction is
permitted in the streets of crowded cities is a
matter of almost daily report. conspicuous
case was that in Jersey City on Tuesday of a
well-known civil engineer. but it is no more
granddaughter to kill prominent citizen than a
needless child.
Is there anything to justify this killing of
people and bereaving their families by cor
poratlons. and, if not. where is the RESPONSE
tacio 20 dCCiueHts upon railroads
or in the streets by which life is lost,
and it may be said that nobody is
to blame. Railroads must be operated.
| teams and cars are necessity in city
| streets. and fatal accidents are sometimes un-
avoidable. But experience has shown that this
peculiar device known the trolley car, by
reason Of the powerful current Of cleo
tricity used in operating it and the
frequent difficulty of controlling its move
ments. is constantly liable to kill peo-
pie. Its victims far outnumber those of
capital punishment and are more numerous
than those of the ordinary murderer IN the
same community. Exact statistics might show
the trolley to be q rival of any epidemic dis
ease by which wont to be visited.
Is the killing of people by the deadly trolley
any less manslaughter because the operating Of
that device is authorized by law or by the rail-
road commission!
