GOOD SENSE.

Mr.. G%ladstone's successor has been
making a speech at Manchester. and has
said some sensible things. Lord Rose
berry is a typical B%nglishman and a
member Of the House OF Lords. He
probably has as many insular prejudices
az usually distinguish Englishmen. but
he differs from a large number of his
countrymen In progressing with the
times and not remaining stationary
while the world moves.
Lord Rosebery declares hat his con-
fdence in the success OF Home Rule Is
the result of his conviction that In this
day Of advanced intelligence old preju-
dices and errors are bound to die out.
The English people, he believes. will
soon be willing to concede Justice TO
Ireland.
In like manner he believes that par
liamentary obstruction will cease. be-
cause the longer there is congestion In
the Legislative body the more satisfied
the people will become OF Its absurdity
and wrong, and the more resolved that
II must be remedied.
VIII our own Senators take these re-
marks of the English Premier at heart?

MODEST REQUESTS.

New York had It's share Of the army"
yesterday. The visitors came from New
Haven by boat, having mustered enough
money to pay their fares. They were not
allowed to parade the streets, but pro-
ceeded to the headquarters OF the Peo-
pies party and sat down to a banquet Of
frankfurters n beer.
1t Is significant that these New Eng
landers, about sixty In number, repudiate
any connection with Coxey. They go to
Washington, they say, to petition Con-
gress IN their own account, and mod
estly ask Tor the establishment of Gov
eminent farms and factories where the
unemployed may now and at all times be
supplied with work: for n constitutional
amendment affirming the right OF every
citizen to have work; for the abolition Of
interest on bonds; for the construction OF
good roads; for National control OF rail-
roads. telegraphs and mines; for the cul-
tivation of all land not In use. and for
Matchmaking trusts.
The visitors and their friends meet at
Germania Hall! tonight to discuss this
platform. 1t may be enlarged by re-
quiring Congress to supply every citizen
with good health and a wife who Is not
a suffragist. But II Is to be feared there
may be as much difficulty in getting Con-
gress to act upon It as there Is to maxi
the Senate vote on tariff reform.

JOHN BURNs's FAR-oFF BLACK EYE.

The Burns eye acted as all other eyes
do when they try to stop anything that

a swift trip to the starry armament,
and when 1t got back It got mad and

assurance that we believe his version Of
the eye episode. We harbor no suspi-
cion that his wife hit him there or that
the cat did 1t. or that he fell against

AS there must have been some ex-
pense to sending the news of his black
eye all the way from London to this
country, we will add to our expression
of sincere sympathy a suggestion that

A STATE

The Democratic Senators were nearly
unanimous yesterday in their caucus ac-
tion looking to the advancement OF the
compromise shape. Inc single exception
vas found in Senator Hill. whose soil
tary may" was recorded against the
resolution to introduce amendments only
through the Finance Committee.
Senator Murphy was absent from the
caucus. Whether his absence was in
duced by Mr.. Croker is not known. But
1t Is certain that he was out driving
with the Tammany boss while this most
important meeting OF the Democratic
Senators was being held.
Thus the great Empire State was throt-
tied at Washington when the question OF
the relief Of the business Of the nation
from Its paralysis and the rescue OF labor
from Its suffering was under discussion.
This betrayal Of the State by Its rep
resentatives in the United States
Senate. this treason to the De-
mocracy.' was made the more
marked by the fact that at the same
moment the voices of the most promi-
nent Democrats In New York were
raised at a great meeting In this city
demanding prompt and favorable action
by the senate on tariff reform.
One New York enator voting against
the interests OF the nation and the other
junket'ng with a Tammany politician

tacle for the Empire State!

Rules for

To the Editor:
In walking. the body never entirely quits tAs
ground. the heel of the advanced foot touching
the ground In each step before the toe of the rear
foot leaves It. The advanced limb supports the
body. while the rear foot propels 1t. Suppose q
man to be standing with his heels together and
he be now made to take some Eteps, starting
with the left foot. then the motions will be the
following: The body Is inclined forward. by this
means the centre OF gravity would fall in front
OF tho base formed by the feet II the left limb
were not raised and the foot thrown forward.
The toes lust clear tie ground and the heel Is
made to touch the ground first. This prevents
the body from falling. Meanwhile the right leg
is Strengthened and the heel raised. When the
heel Of tho left foot touches the ground. nothing
in the right foot but the big toe is In contact
with 1t. This member serves as the propeller.
The step is now complete and the work Of each
limb Is exchanged for the next step and SO on.
The cause OF waddiing Is the inability OF persons
to bring the leg forward In a straight line. but by
force OF habit they describe a seinIcircie with
their legs at each step. MED. 20

POLICE UNDER INSPECTION.
Summer Uniforms Scanned for
SPOTS and wrinkles.

The annual inspection of the Summer
uniforms of the Police Department be-
gan to-day.
Early this morning Inspector Will
Jams went to the Eldridge street sta
ton. where he found the s~tation-hous
and the street in front of 1t overrun
by policemen in the Summer blouses
and lightweight trousers.
The first platoons from all the pre-
cinct in the First Police District had
received orders to report at the Ell
bridge street station this morning. In
spector Williams took a stand In the
Sergeants' room, near the front win
dow, where he could get plenty of light,
and began to hunt for grease spots
and wrinkles.
The policemen marched in by platoons,
and as each mans name was called he
gave his coat collar a twist which
turned 1t up around his ears and
stepped to the front. The big Inspector
ran his eye down the front of each
mans coat and then turne him around
to look at the name n number under
the collar. A gentle. punch in the back
from the Inspectors big fist was a
sigma that the policeman had passed
muster.
Inspector McAvoy looked over his men
at the Mercer street station, and In
spector Conlin did the same at the
East One Hundred and Twenty-sixth
street station.

LOOKING FOR GOLDHORN.
His Accounts Are Said to He Short
900.

Il dwig B. Goldhorn is making 1t lively
for police and detectives In many cities.
Up to April 10 he was employed as a
bookkeeper by the Mannheim Marine
Insurance Company at their New York
agency at n Beaver street. On that
date he disappeared, and his accounts
show an apparent shortage OF $4,000 1t
is also stated that the police hold pos
session of two forged checks, drawn on
a Canadian bank. n signed with the
name of the New York manager. James
Johnston Riley.
The Mannheim Company's officers in
this city are very reticent this morning.
They are making every effort to run
down young .Goldhorn. Inc further than
that they decline to discuss the matter.
Goldhorn's native place is Eberfelds,
Germany, where his parents reside. The
family Is said to be wealthy. He has
lived in q boarding house in East Four
teenth street for the past SiX months.
He received frequent visits there from
a pretty young woman, whom he In
troduced as Miss Annie Meyer. 1t was
understood that they were engaged.
Miss Meyer has been i~nterrogated by. the
police, but she was nab to aid them
In tracing Goldhorn.

BOYS NECK BROKEN.
He Fell Forty Feet from an Ele-
vator and Was Killed.
Tried TO Leap from a Car While II
Was in Motion.
Conductor Caught Him by the Leg
but Had to Let Go.

An unknown boy. about fifteen years
old, met a sudden and frightful death at
23l Mercer street at $50 o'clock this
morning.
The boy approached the street en-
trance to the express elevator with a
hundl containing three coats on his
shoulder, and told Elevator Conductor
David Myer that he wished to go up
stairs. The boy did not know the name
Of the firm to whom the coats belonged,
but Myer surmised that the coats were
fifth and sixth floors as a clothing man
ufactory.
The ELEVATOR started up with the boy
t%e car arG at the e sesond ioor M for the s'9 otRer
passenger, and the boy stepped OFF also.
Here. that isn't where you want to
go. IN tell o where to get off,"
cried the elevator man.
The lad got on to the car again, and
just as It was passing the third floor he
threw his bundle to the landing and
Myer reached for him and taught him
by the foot, holding him suspended un-
der the car. which was still in motion.
Myer saw at once that the boy would
leased his hold, and the boy fell head
long to the basement. a distance Of about
forty feet.
His neck wal broken and his skull
was crushed. Death was instantaneous.
The body was removed to the Mercer
street police station. and the Coroner
notified.
The police do not attach any blame to
the elevator man.
w Natelson, a tailor, OF 1903 Cook
street, Williamsburg, whose name was
on the bundle of coats, was telegraphed
for. He came over at once mo identi-
fed the boy as a new employee, and
said that he knew him simply as
'.Joe."
