CLOSING IN ON BRoCKwAY.

The meeting OF the State Board OF
Charities In Albany yesterday was held
at the request OF the managers and Su-
perintendent Of the Elnira Reformatory
in order that they might make n final
attempt to head of what they are con-
ident must be the report OF the exam
lining committee on the charges OF ile-
gal and brutal practices brought against
that institution. II was indeed meet
ing granted to enable the counsel OF the
Reformatory. Mr.. John Stanchfield. to
make n three hours stump speech, laud-
ing the beneficent character OF the tor
ture chamber and the many exccllencies
Of Brockway. and denouncing the sen
sational" press. which. he said, had
raised all the trouble and prosecuted"
the worthy Superintendent.
Not word was uttered to refute the
evidence given OF mothers and sisters
whose erring sons and brothers had died
from the crueltles practised on them In
the Reformatory: OF the young men
who had gone forth into the world
crippled and impaired In health through
the brutal paddlings and the savage
blows and kicks of their torturers.
1t was the "sensationalism' OF the
press that was to blame.
This is the plea advanced by every
violator OF the law and every ruffian
whose crimes are exposed by watchful
and fearless journals. Go into the cells
OF the State prisons to-day and hundreds
OF felons will tell you that they are the
victims OF "sensational' press 1t was
certainly 'sensational' to describe the
dragging OF terrified wretches out Of their
cells with hot iron hooks: the chains and
bars to which prisoners were fastened In
dark cells like wild beasts: the beatings
across the kidneys with lengths of hose
dipped in water: the savage blows in the
face of a poor wretch who turned his
head to pray for mercy. But II was all
true. and was proved by the manned and
crippled living victims and by the tears
and sobs OF the relatives of those whose
lives had been sacrificed to these horrible
brutalities.
1t is said that the report will be at
once presented to the Legislature. and II
is to be hoped there will be no delay In
acting upon 1t and In ending a scandal
worse than any that has ever before oc-

HOW TO STOP IT.

The Platt BIPARTISAN Police bill, re-
ported to the Assembly despite the pro-
test made against II by some OF the best
citizens Of New York. will pass the Leg
lslature. and Its fate in the Governors 8
hands Will depend on the position Mr.
Croker may take upon 1t. unless some
very vigorous action is adopted to pre-
vent such n result.
Everybody In New York knows that
all the evils to which the present police
System may be subjected will be
doubled and intensified under the Platt
bill. There will be two political bosses
to satisfy instead OF one. and the neces-
sltv OF secret combinations and harmo-
NOUS ttion will most effectually pre-
vent exposures. The evils OF the old
Commission. when the division prevailed
as It would prevail under the Plat BILL
are -sh In the recollection Of many OF
our people. We shall have a return to
the days when nm equal division OF
political power In the Board meant a
perpetual bargain and trading In all the
departments of the Government. be.
tween the worst elements OF both
parties.
There is only one hope. and that Is for
the people to combine In monster
demonstration against the threatene
evil. The best men In the city. on both
the Democratic and Republican sides
should arouse themselves to action ant
let the politicians know. as they hav,
been taught on two or three recent oc
casions. that they must hold theiI
hands. The manifestations OF an in
dignant public sentiment may yet stoI

Pauperixing wage-Enrners.

To the Editor:
The Evening and Morning World are to be
commended for their earnest efforts to alleviate
the condition OF the worthy poor this Winter. 1t
Is dire necessity, not choice. that drives these
people to ask aid. And the greatest OF Kindness
Is to place them In self supporting positions as
soon as possible which can be done by the ladies'
prominent in the church charity organizations
bringing the following subject before the employ
ers OF the thousands of femalS help In this city.
Even In the present business distress positions can
be found by wedding out the wealthy wage-earners,
OF whom numbers be found In large establish
ments who boast the paltry salary wouldn't keep
them in perfumes; maybe not. but 1t would keep
many from applying to THE Worlds relief
funds One OF the managers OF a local life-insur-
ance company Is authority for the statement that.
OF the several hundred typewrters they employ,
a hundred have no need to labor, being OF quite
wealthy parents. Another crying outrage is the
religious institutions OF all denom nations. who
bid for the work of the large wholesale dealers In
n ale and female apparel They have cut the prices
down to starvation figures. The households OF
girls striving to support aged parents and younger
members OF their family look helplessly on. while
these institutions, receiving large amounts oil
money from the State and city and from private
sources paying no taxes take the bread from
these wage-earn who pay the taxes In rentals.
These religious pauper institutions were never
founded with the Idea that they ever would com
pete for work to beggar our working classes. An
appeal should be made to the Legislature II they
do not desst In their rivalry with our poor people

UNMUzzLED LATIN ON THE WALLS

Things can be done in Cambridge that
could never be done in New York. Take
for instance thoseLatin posters in Pom
peiian red. printed In old Roman charac-
ters. that are now glaring from the walls
and show windows Of old John Harvards 8
town. announcing stage production of
Terence's "Phormio" by the College stu
dents. If one Of them was seen on
Harlem fence the entire police contin-
gent OF the North End would be walking
around on tiptoes fo. six months to
come. dodging imaginary dynamite fends
and feeling each passing breeze for indi-
cations of nitro -glycerine. They wouldn't
know what 1t was but as 1t has CORY
anarchistic appearance. they would guess
at 1t with blood-chilling and spine-curl-
ing results.
Downtown the brick-red document
would do equal damage to the peoples
nerves. Most persons who have any
thing like an education, studied Latin
at school and promptly forgot It when
they went out into the world. They
would only get an inkling OF the posters
meaning but still would have their
doubts, The hoi polioi though. wouldn't I
be able to understand anything but the
proper names in the announcement and
would suddenly jump at the conclusion
that there was to be an election in the
ward and that Terence Phormio was
running for some Office or other. The
bomb throwers would think 1t was q
bloodrare call to get together and do q
bursting business. The auctioneers woult
construe 1t as new and thrilling competi
ton. The BARRIERS would see the wore
"blbliopolam" In 1t and think II hac
something to do with their red, whit,
, and blue signs.
!, 1t would create tremendous excItemen
In all quarters, and scholars who rever,
: the memory OF Cicero and those othe
fellows who dealt in nicely rounded
Roman rhetoric would shed a silent bu
sympathetic tear over the canine qualit,
=, OF the Latin that is used.
