The serious obstruction to II thoroughfarc by
the work of laying new pavement is now fully
illustrated in Cortlandt-st. Few. If any. of our
downtown streets are used by n greater number
of people than the main avenue of approach 20
tho Pennsylvania Railroad ferry; yet the side
walks for two or three blocks up from tho ferry
are half covered with piles Of paving stones, which
in all probability will lie there for several weeks
Perhaps there IL no way OF avoiding this under
the present methods Of carrying on paving opera
tions but the continued discomfort Of thousands
of people day after day for weeks together is
serious Indictment Of those methods. OF course

TRIBUNE found reason 10 believe and sci lorlh
with many interesting Details Tammany with
drcw from the combination. If decisive PROOF
had been lacking before it was supplied when
Mavor Groy. having persuaded the four Rapid
Transit Commissioners who had resigned 10 re-
sumo operations cordially approved their la'eSt
plan and proclaimed it as his own oilclai
ultlmatum to the Manhattan Company.
Whatever the influences which put Mayor
Gilroy in his present frame of mind the a',i-
tudo which he has now assumed is likely to be
,dv.ntaocous to the city. The Mayor declares
that if the Manhattan declines to accept one
or the other of the alternative propositions
made by the Commission he will do all IN
his power to break down the ccmpanys mo-
nopoly. Mr.. Russell Sage says that nc Is
curious 70 know how the Mayor Is gong 10
carry ont his promise, while the Mayor IN re-
turn informs Mr. Sage that if he will only be
na,ient he will be abundantly enlightened On
that point 1t will occur to some persons, per-
hans that if the city government is in posi-
ton to break down the Manhattan monopoly
il must be because the Manhattan monopoly
IN, committed offences which the city govern
mcnt has hitherto chosen to ignore. But, with
out pursuing that suggestion we feel warranted
in saving that it is greatly to the advantage OF
the community that the municipal authorities
should be neither partners nor servants Of the
Manhattan managers.
A striking indication Of the benefits which
arc likely to result from this disruption of re-
la.ions, whatever their precise nature may have
been is found in one of the objections which
tho Manhattan people make to the Commissions
plans. They complain that there is no clause
in the proposed agreement giving them COM
plcte and permanent control OF rapid transit
operations from this time forward. Mr. Sage
yearns for exclusive rights. lie wants guar
antee against competition. But so long as
Mayor GilrOy remains in Office and in his pres
cnt mood the city will be saved from that mis-
fortune I'm our opinion, the public will derive
considerable benefit from an eXtxlsion OF the
elevated lines within their legitimate fed, bat
we can scarcely imagine a more costly wrong
than the city would suffer If i should be put
ilrevocably at the mercy of the Manhattan
COmDauy.

rather sudden and extremely vigorous decara-
tion in behalf of the people. This is fair way
TO define his Intervention, we think for the
tenac;ty of the Manhattan Company in adhering
to its policy of taking as much and giving as
little as possible has long been the chief obstacle
in the way of improved transportation iacili-
ties. The negotiations and failures of the last
two years have supplied strong, if not abso-
lutcly conclusive, evidence of a close combina-
ton between Tammany leaders and the Nan
haitian Company to manipulate the Rapid Tran
sit Commission and the market to their mutual
advantage. 1t is dincalt to resist the convic-
ton that the proposed franchises have been
used for speculative purposes, that great
deal of money was made by the insiders on
the advance in the price OF Manhattan stock
and subsequently by some at least of the same
persons on the decline, and that during this
period of large fluctuations the welfare and
necessities of the community concerned these
operators no. at all. But after time the game

THE CHOICE or A STAGE FOR AMERICA

There have been various reports OF late as TO what
theatre I'm New York would BE- occupied by Henry e.
Abbey's spectacle "Amerca,' now at the AUDI
to;inm In Chicago. Niblo's Garden and the Academy
Of Music have been mentioned. Mr.. Abbey SAID
Yesterday that II would not be- Nihlos, ard he was
not vet sure whether 1t would be the Academy or not
The choice lies between the Academy ard the Met
ropoan Opera House. The latter Mr.. Abbey has had
I'm mind all along: In fact since long before IL was
burned The work Of restoring the Louise Is going on
rapidly and Mr. Abbey has no doubt that 1t VIII be
ready on November 81. when 1t IS proposed TO open
the opera season. though the Opening may be delayed

This plan will have several advantages. Mr..
Abbey will have both the company and the theatre
entirely IN his own hands, and he Will be able TO
use the same orchestra the same chorus and the same
ballet for both. The opera season will end at the
usual time In the early spring. and then. II the

The X achcstcr Democrat states that ii is
The pulpose II the Republicans Of Western
Ncw-loh; + prosecute an aggressive campaign
this fall This is gratifying pcr Of intcll:-
gcncc. It shows that our friends in that sec
ton Of the state have determined to make the
INST Of the fine opportunity which presents
ii.clf Of achieving victory FOR their party, and
IN rcfcrc for the cause Of good and progressive
Government. In this determination they may
be sure they viii have the hearty support Of
the Republicans OF the metropolis and Of the
rest Of the state. Already the question. When
shall the Republican State Convention be
cIllcd? is being earnestly discussed by the Re-
lMblcan PEE, all over New-lork The gen
oIal feeling seems 10 be that we have much
10 gain and nothing to lose by an early con-
ycntOn and long campaign. The existence
Of such feeling attcsts that Republicans, lead
crs and rank and file, are con,ciou, that the
m ne the Republican record is examined, either
on its own independent merits or in compcti
ton with the Democratic record, the better will
be the prospect for Republican success at the
November ballOt-boX.
An aggressive fight is the sort Of fight which
they expect t. make the necessary Roadway
against the Democracy. \ perfunctory can
va :, a canvas which runs itself half-hcaitcd
canvass, will be useless. We can only win by
rcsoutc persistent fight in every school dis
trict. Ii would be absurd folly to under
rate the strength Of our opponents. They are
strongly intrcnchcd at Albany and throughout
tho State. They are in Possession of all the
State offices which are to be filed this fall.
They control both branches Of the Legislature,
and to help them TO retain their power they
have tho benefit of tho gcrrymandcr which was
lately put through the Legislature. In the
circumstances, the task of beating them is
necessarily big contrac-not so big as to dis
courage Republicans, but big enough to con-
vince them that they cannot afford to mako any
mistakes in organization, or in choice of can
ddatcs--that they cannot afford to be other
than earnest and united in any district.
Ii bchooves the State, county and other COM
mitces to proceed promptly to make whatever
arrangements arc necessary for the conduct OF
an aggressive campaign. In the MEANWHILE
tho canvass which i, in progress that confines
itself TO suggestions of candidates for places on
the State ticket or Cor the Legislature Is profit
able. For uncxceptionable nations-nom-
nations which are at once strong and popular
will be half the battle

1t seems a small matter to trouble the august
Supreme Court of the United States with, but
it is altogether likely that the question whether
Ellis Island is in New-York or Ncw-Jersey Will
be brought before that body for decision al an
early day. 1t came before Judge Benedict yes
terday in case of alleged perjury at the island,
the point being raised that the Circuit Court
for this district had no jurisdiction for the rea-
son that Ellis Island was in another State.
The authorities are conflicting as to the boun-
dary line between the two States. Plainly the
question ought to be settled and this can be
authoritatively done only by the court of nlti-
mate resort
