then wrote to the district director of public
instruction for permission. North after

rector was then received asking what
would be the grade of the proposed school,
what would be taught i'm it, how many
teachers would be employed and how many
children would attend. Replies to all of
these questions were promptly forwarded,
ard, in September. after some further cor
respondence, the district director wrote to
the patron Of the proposed school that per-
mission for its establishment would be
granted If the local authorities of the town
had no objection. Upon this the school was
opened; but the 18th of September
another commur ication was received from
the director saying that on account of the
opposition of the local authorities the school
must be closed. On the Sth of October the
local authorities notified Mr. c. and
wrote the director that they had no objec-

no avail. On the 26th of October, six
months after the beginning of the negotia-

CLEARING THE LOBBlEs.

President Scanned. of the Fire Com
mission, confirms the story that the law
prohibiting the managers of theatres
from allowing persons to stand in the
aisles during performance must he
enforced. II the law IL as Objectionable
as some persons represent, he says the
best way to Insure its repeal or amend
ment is to enforce it, His own Judgment
Is that 1t is a good law, and that to
allow people to stand in the aisles and
lobhes of places of amusement must
necessarily Cbstruct rapid exit In case of
fire, and is calculated to lead to disaster.
President Scannell says the officers Of
the Department will be instructed to use
discretion In enforcing the law. and to
avoid as far as possible any controversy
with the employees of the theatres. OF
course, the Hobbies at the back OF the
boxes are the places where the people
who pay admission money only gather,
and that Is just where Crowding Is the
most Objectionable and the most hazard
ous. Yet the law mentions "aisles" only
| and II Is contended by theatrical folks
| that this space behind the boxes is not
| an "aisle." SO the tlremen stationed al
| theatres are instructed to use some dis
Cretion in enforcing the law, but to TAX,
care that no crowding obstructing tn,
exits shall be- permitted
The law is II good one for the publ,
in many respects, and II is to be hope,
it will be properly enforced,

OVER $4,000 FOR THE BABIES.

The Sick Babies Fund to-day amounts
to 32i032 GO. As everybody knows. who
has followed the course OF the charity,
and nearly a half-mllion people have
had their eyes on II every day, this Is
the largest amount reached in any year
since the Fund came into existence,
seven years ago. Without the surplus
from former Summers, which was added
when the Fund opened last May, the
contributions are nearly 5000 in excess
of those of the record year, 1892 when
over $4,000 was received from the peo-
pie
The present large Fund. amassed In a
season of terrible business distress. is n
magnificent testimonial of the popular

1t shows not only that New Workers
and their neighbors are big-hearted and
liberal handed. and that the cry of inno-

money, but 1t also shows that the public
has fun confidence in 1.-THE Evening

THE END OF pRoCKwAY.

The Brockway case Is closed so far as
the testimony is concerned. There can
be no doubt in any unprejudiccd mind
that the charges made against the man
agements and methods of the Elmra
Reformatory are not only sustained by
the evidence. but that the Illegal and
brutal methods have been brought more
closely home to the Superintendent and
managers by this second trial.
There can be no doubt what the find
ing Of the Commission will be. But there
ought to be no delay in the report, and
not a moments loss of time in sweeping
out OF existence both the Superintendent
and the present Incapable and unfaith-
full Board Of Managers. Gov. Flower
will be very blind to his own political
interests 4 he does not act promptly, and
no elaborate report IL required from the
Commission. The scandal IL sickeninS.

An effort Is now being made by the
Brockway interests to turn the Reform
atory over to the State prison manage
ment. To change the characters of the
institution Just at the moment IL has II
prospect of being saved from Rrockway-

would be an outrage the people Of the

The FnlIncy of Projections.

To the Editor;
90 g." has allowed his intelligence to be
imposed upon II he believes that the beautiful
fabrics that come into this country and the
magnificent vessels that enter our harbors are
produced by pauper labor. II this were true what
spectacle would England present-a nation
with highly skilled pauper labor monopollzing
half the trade Of the world in spite Of hostile
tariffs everywhere. and holding the whole world
under contribution. To a mind not blinded by
prejudice and selhshness. England's commercial
supremacy simply demonstrates the fallacy OF
protection. High tarin means restricted trade,
ter for wage earners? This is the question
In a nutshell they have TO decide. Who ever
heard OF a nation being injured by extending its
foreign commerce? The reverse Of this, brought
about by high tariffs, is the principal of the
wretched condition OF most Of the European
countries. There is no jugglery In commerce.
You cannot make 1t one-sided; 1t Is always
mutually beneficial. An exchange Of products
does not diminish the demand for labor. but in
creases It. The idea that country is enriched
by shutting out things that are comparatively
cheap to make way for those that compare
lively dear. is absurd. Under McKinleyism our
foreign trade has steadily declined, our internal
drained from rs. It is therefore only reason
able to suppose that a liberal tarir will re-
verse these conditions. Trade with foreign coun.
