NEW YORK LETTER.
ESPECIAL CORRESPONDENCE 7

The conviction of police inspector
Mclaughlin i significant in several
important ways. Ii Is for one thing a
yinlicatiOn Of the jury systems, though
incidentally II reflects stronglyuPonths
way IN wLichihe system is administered.
The trial proves that it is possible 10
get al honest jury even under adverse
circumstances. But the history of the
getting OF that jury shows clearly how
largely the rules of practice have been
perverted IN the interest of criminals.
When Mr.. Cleveland was governor be
called attention to the fact that for Il
full score OF years every alteration
made IN the system of criminal pro-
cedure had been made in the interest
of criminals aud at the instigatiun oi
criminal lawyers The same thing If
true of every altered Interpretation oi
the jury laws. The second point illus
trated by this trial is the importance
of having on the bench only men of
capacity, courage and conscientious
ness. 1t Is due TO Judge Barrett
mainly that competent jury was Sc
cured in this ease AMI that Mclaughlin
is convicted. There is absolutely no
point nj which vigilance and conscience
on the part of the citizen are SO nee
essary rs IN the choice of judges to
preside over our courts.

Nearly four hundred violations Of
the speed ordinances during the
month of May by the Brooklyn troll
ley iuggernauts. That is the report
just submitted to Mayor Schieren by
Mr.. Franklin, chief Of the corps OF
trolley inspectors. To be exact, the
number of violations WAS 800, divided
as follows among the five systems
brooklyn Heights Company, 1872; At
lantic avenue, 81; Brooklyn, Queens
County and Suburban, GO; Coney
Island and Brooklyn company, SO
and the Brooklyn City and Newtown,
80. Mr.. Franklin further reports that
not single company has attached a
speed indicator to It's cars, and that
only few improved tenders have
been put on for experimental pur-
poses.
This is an outrageous defiance of
the law, the Grand Juries, the courts
and the public opinion OF our sister
city. The murderous trolley corpora.
tions practically say to the people
that they will do as they please and
defy punishment for their crimes. If
Mayor Schieren did his duty in the
matter the slayers of the innocents
would have been brought to terms
long ago and scores OF lives would
have been saved. The responsibility
for the non-enforcement of the law
rests with him.

The LcgisIature OF 1909.

The prOrogation of the Leg lature
brought the session of 1895 to an end
almost to day within five months
after its assembling. According To
the average of late years this IS
reasonably short session. 1t is longer
by far than it used to be; ii is longer
than is required by public business.
But while party politics are made the
subject and the object of Legislation
in Massachusetts, there must be an
inevitable waste of time. A legisla.
ture that should give itself to work
and not to politics would find three
months ample time to accomplish
everything necessary to be done. The
legislature which has just adjourned
has made no great and distinguished
record. The product OF five months
of law-makiug has produced the
metropolitan water act, the subway
amendments, the act esta blishing textile
schools and some few other measures
OF general interest, among which may
be named the Saturday half-holidRy
for banks and the establishment OF
home for consumptives. 1t has also
provided with reasonable hberality for
the maintenance of the policy of State
highway construction. But when one
undertakes to discover any really great
and comprehensive enterprise OF leg
islstion the record of the past five
months is found 10 he barren indeed.
On the other hand there has been no
open scandal. The influence of the
corporations las not been manifested
to any great extent in the House. That
body, indeed, seems to have been uu-
usually free from faint. 1t is in the
Senate that the corporation lobby has
worked this year, and that body has
proved the graveyard of legislation in
the interest OF the people. The dis
tinctive feature OF the legislation OF
1899 is interference with local self
government This is seen in the at
tempt to bring the cities of Holvoke
and Woburn under the control of the
State, and more notably in the amend
meut of the charter of the city of Bos-
ton in violation OF precedent and jus.
tice without giving the people the
privilege OF passing upon the proposed
changes. The result is the establish
ment OF precedent in legislation
which is full Of danger. The tendency
is bad it is demorslizing in the ex.
treme. But while the Legislature Of
1895 cannot claim the admiration of
the public for what it has done, it will
receive public thanks for many things
it left undone.

About 10 Per Cent.

In the Massachusetts Crop Report
for MAY, issued 10y William r. Ses-
sious, Secretary State Board of Agri-
culture, are found these interesting
passages on tuberculosis: "The ques-
ton relative to this disease among our
domestic animals were asked in order
TO learn the views and opinions OF act
unl cattle owners. Most of our cor
respondents are thoroughly familiar
with the care and handling OF live
stock, and their replies to the ques-
tons asked show commendsble spirit
of fairness aud H desire to state the
facts as they understand them. One
hundred and twenty-nlne replies We're
received. Many stat that they were
unable to give an opinion which would
be Of value, owing to the impossibllty
of detecting the disease by physical
examination, except when the cases are
very marked. Thirty.eIght CORE
spunlents replied that they believed
their locality to be free from the dis
ease. Qaite large number gave the
number affected rs one to two per
cent. Others placed their estimate Of
number affected as high as TO- 20, and
even % per cent. the majority Of
estimates OF percentage of animals
badly affected are 0. one and two per
cent. None place it over 10 per cent.

Practical Work

Troop A of the Washington militia

for II night at time, marching by

fifteen days this command will he on

e1ge OF its particular branch of ser.
vice which il is impossible to secure in

Finally, the conviction of Nc
Laughlin incidently brings to atten-
tion the very gravest defect of our
criminal system, the one thing about
it which has b.gn most obviously in
vented to enable criminals To escape
justice, the thing which more than
any other robs the punishment of
criminals of its proper deterrent eff
feet. There was absolutely no doubt
of tins mans guilt The proof was
positive, complete, and free from all
doubt that, while entrusted with the
duty of enforcing law, he used his
power to eXtort money from law
breakers and in the process debauched
the conscience and conduct of his
own subordinates. The case against
him was SO clear that conscientious
judge in summing up the evidence
practically ordered conviction as the
only possible verdict OF the jury. Yet
when this clearly guilty man came up
for sentence his lawyers "file no.
tice of appeal" upon quibbling tech
nicalltles, and under our extraordinary
rules OF procedure they will have
power-"as of right"-to postpone
justice indefinitely. Nothing of the
kind is possible under the laws of
any other civilized country. Nothing
OF the kind ought to be possible under
our laws. The purpose of law against
felony i. to prevent felonies by pun
ishing them. Under our law the pre-
yentive influence is practically lost by
a senseless delay. In other countries
the result of trial is presumed to be
just, and he who would appeal from
it must SHOW adequate ground of APP
peal. In New York appeal is made a
matter of right, to the practical multi
ication of all our criminal laws.

}. Crockett, president OF the Boston
Christian Eudeavor union, is chair
man. The hall committee has great
deal of work on its hand-, and out of
the $40, 600 that will be spent on the
the convention the hall committees
expenditures will amount to some.
thing like $4,000. This commit.
tee has charge of ali the work
of getting ready the three large
auditoriums of the convention, and
the care of them during the conven-
ton. On this work all the members
are actively engaged at present. 1t
Is now thought that sounding boards
will be put in both large tents and in

tlrely new experiment, and is thought
will be great improvement.
