COEFEY HAS RESIGNED.

Amid surroundings of the most solemn and
impressive character Michael J. Coifey, presi-
dent of the Board of Aldermen of the city of
Brooklyn, was yesterday released from the re-
sponsibilities of public Office and retired to pri-
yate life. There is balm in the reflection that
Mr.. Coffey has withdrawn into the chrysalis
state only that he may emerge in a still more
bewitching and resplendent form. lie ceases
to represent the Ist District in the Common
Council in order that he may be eligible to
represent some district not yet selected in the
Senate Chamber. He sent his resignation to
the City Clerk yesterday afternoon and Colo
mel Cummings Immediately read it to the
Board. Under any circumstances it could not
all present. When we remember all that
Coffey has been to Brooklyn, and all that
Brooklyn has been to him when we recall his
almost unparalleled labors, sacrifices and tri-
umpbs; as we review his relations TO the trans
portatiOn system of that renowned and ven
cradle municipality rs We reflect upon the
devotion with which he has done whatever his
hands found to do and above all, upon the
tender personal ties which he has been cult
waiting all the time we acknowledge with pro-
found sincerity that his last appearance upon
the Aldermanc stage was not unworthy OF him.
As the s,lcmn moment approached Mr.. Ccffey
was discovered to be in the chair. Behind him.

The truth is, Governor. you have filled the

YOU t, do is to think differently about it and

giving out unexpected tails in the most con-
fusing manner, and synchronous as well with
the rcappcalancc of the sea serpent near Lynn

the same coast. they have been taken as in

all. 50 far off in saying that the game is about

will be honorable to all parties. And we shall
cling around your knees until you shade OFF a
little in your demand.

Strangers, especially from the West, where ami
mate objects move quickly, have expressed surprise
that our Broadway cable creep along in such
"a lifcless way. Broadway, Of course Is den'ey
crowded street and its condition in this respect Il
the reason assigned by the Cable Company for the
slow progression of its ears. But they couLl 20
much faster than they 90. and one of the reasons
of their slowncss is the U.s. on the same tracks and
at the same time the cable is running OF cars
drawn by horses. The rate of the cable cars has
TO be such as is consistent with the movement OF
the horse cars jogging along between them. The
company should be compelled at once TO take Its
horses away. If it is going to run cable road
it should be compelled to run a cabIe road Aside
from this, however, there is another reason. New
York is ten years behind in its adoption of the
cable. and, in fact is only adopting this slow
mode of transit when other cities are enjoying
the benefits Of later and more rapid methods Of
street car propulsion.

Although Roger Q. Mills is no longer in the
House of Representatives, his tradition appears
least there is talk on the part OF many
Democrats that in revising the tariff the best
plan of procedure will be to revive the Dark
Lantern methods made memorable by I" Pre-
mier" Mills in 1883. No one has ever disputed
Mills's claim to the patent right to this idea,
and it is a rare compliment to him that 1T is
now revived even in tentative way. 1t will
be characteristic of Democratic uncandor and
dislike of straightforwardncss if new tariff
bill is prepared in secret and forced through

rules modelled after those which prevailed in

Yet another change is to be recorded in con-
nection with the map of Africa. According to
Che terms of convention just concluded be-

has been made protectoratc and vassal State of
the Eocr Republic. 1t was in 1884 that the in
dependence of the Swat was first recognized, and
in 1890 the Government of the white population
was vested in mixed commission representative
of British Government and the Transvaal Repub-
lie. The concession of Swaziland to the latter

an outlet to the sea through Tongaland, and in
