OUR OWN GOVERNMENT

OUR OWN GOVERNMENT
should now take greater care to protect
Presidents from possible danger
The Senator did not think any
extra precautions would be necessary.
OF course, he said, it would be
wrong to permit the President TO expose
himself unnecessarily but ue believed that
the people Of the United States think well
enough of their Presidents TO protect them
so far as any protection would be aYailing
The presence of an unusual guard of troops
or police would be a constant temptation to
evil disposed persons.
The Senator spoke Of an interview th at
he had on one occasion with President
CarnOt, during which ne spoke OF the high
regard be had for the United States, our
institutions, aDd our people, and he seemed
10 know our public men quite as well as
many of our people knew them. The SEN
atOr spoke feeiinglv Of his death. and said
that il filed him with profound sorrow
and indignation that so great and so good
a man as CarnOt should be stricken down
Oy the hands Of an assassin.
Representative Hit, Of Illinois, who
was Charge d'Afaires at Paris during
TIE EvENTFUL YEARS
from 1874 to 1881 and was in the last Con-
Eres chairman of the foreign affairs com
mittee of the House, spoke OF the dead
President as a man Of pure life aud OF
unsulIed character and reputation. No
man N France, IN ais opinion, was held in
higher esteem, or more thoroughly deserv-
ed the confidence and love Of the people
than he.
Mr.. Hit said he could not understand
what possible motive there could be in the
killing.
1T seems he said, like malignant in
sanity and nothing else. His life had been
without reprOach. and in all the years he
had spent in France ne had never heard an
aspersiOn against MS character. The motive
might have been revenge for the execution
of Valiant. as it is well known that the
President had withstood every appeal and
eyerv influence that was brought to bear
TO save the culprit's life. This will very
likely be found 10 have been the cause Of
his assassination
Senator Sherman, ex-chairman Of the
Committee on Foreign Relations, was Wis
IDLY affected on hearing the news of Car
not's death, and exclaimed; This is
crime against civilization. regard Carnot
as one of the strongest men that France
had had in many years. He could always
be trusted to do the sensible thing on every
occasion He was thoroughly epublican
in all his ideas and had the greatest admi-
ration and respect for America and Amer
icans.'
Senator Sherman met him in Paris four
years ago and recalled the reception given
on the fourth day of July in commemmora-
ton Of independence Day. On that occa-
sion, President CarnOt spoke Of America
aS the model repu olic of the world and De.
spoke for her a glorious future.
Senator Sherman was greatly impressed
with the sincere and transformations man
ner Of the French President and said that
he considered him one of the greatest II
not one Of the most brilliant men that
France had ever known.

PASSENGERS BADLY MIXED.
Union Elevated Railroad Changes
Trains Without Warning.
Football Tactics Secure Seats at the
Bridge Platform.

Brooklynites who ride to and from
their homes daily on either of the three
lines of the Union Elevated Railroad
which terminate at the bridge are
rapidly becoming cxasperated by the
methods. or rather the apparent lack
of system under which trains are
despatched from that point.
AS one occupant of Fifth avenue
car said last night: The Company Is
playing a practical game of tag with
the passengers He alluded to the
manner in which the waiting throng, as
well as the guards stationed on the plat
form, kept guessing as to which side
of the station their train will start
from.
At this terminal there are two tracks,
one on either side of the central plat
form from which riders embark. on
these trains are despatched over three
separate lines, namely: Fifth avenue, to
Bay Ridge; Lexington avenue, to East
New York, and Myrtle avenue. to Ridge
wood. Up to about month ago the
Fifth avenue trains had departed from
the west side of the platform since the
road had been rum the other two lines
running from the opposite side.
Without preliminary notice. either by
signs or verbally, the passengers were
lined up against the ratings on the
sides which custom had given them to
understand they were to find their proper
trains at, when suddenly they were in
formed that the respective trains were
on sides opposite to the usual order of
things.
Since then, except for delays at wash
ington street, near the curve, ira ms have
run without causing much criticism.
Passengers had become accustomed
to the new order of things and the re
sultant confusion from Firth and Myrtle
avenue ciowds lining up at the narrow
gaps in the rail to tight passage
through when train arrives without
preliminary notice from the guard as to
which line II runs on.
Last night, however, the platform was
filled with wet, perspiring, struggling
men, women and children, massed most
thickly at the rails which guard the
edge. Without warning the Company
had apparently returned to first princi-
pies, and neither the attendants nor the
passengers had been given an mixing.

the animals was shot and killed, but the
other got onto the trestle work OF the
Pennsylvania road and up to noon cut
up lively capers and stopped traffic over
the road
The animals are the property OF Sher-
man, Gable & Co., and were in one of
the paddocks OF the old stock-yards with
number of others. About 9 o'clock
they managed TO get loose. and both
started up Henderson street at breakneck
speed.
Men, women and children made wild
dashes for cover. When they reached
Provost street, one of the animals tore
down First street towards the Pennsyl-
vania freight yards.
A crowd had gathered, and after half
an hours hard work the animal was
chased into the river, where he was shot
by Policeman Thomas Kelly. of the Sew

river.
The other enraged brute tore through
First street to Warren, with crowd In
hot pursuit pelting him with stones.
Or Warren street he made dash for
the Pennsylvania Railroad trestle, and
mounting the steep embankment, began
TO make life miserable for brakemen and
section hands.
After smashing things in that vicinity
for about half an hour the steer started
down the trestle-work towards the Point
of Rocks, about n mile and half away.
Drill engine i76 went in pursuit. Near
the Point OF Rocks the animal turned
on the crowd which WAS following him
and drove them back.
on his wav back he encountered n
train Of Pullman cars and proceeded to
demolish the car "Saloam." After this
he ran towards the train shed, near
Henderson street where he held sway
up to noon.
A gang OF Italians surrounded him
with picks, crowbars and axes obtained
from the railroad shops. He charged his
enemies and forced them to beat hasty
retreat again and again, but finally, when
the cowboys came up, after having
made brave fight for his life, he was
lassooed shot and his throat cut.
