Necessity of Morgue Most Unpleas-
antly Shown at Sixth Precinct.
The crying need OF a new and properly
ventilated morgue for this city was never
better illustrated than yesterday aud last
night The body OF the colored boy,
Campbell Hall, lay in the ice box n a
decomposiug condition. The odors from
the corpse were terrible, aud filled the
entire Sixth precinct station-house, in
the rear of which the little illy-yeutilated
room used as a morgue is located
During the day it was necessary to keep
all the doors leading to the cells aud yard
closed, in order TO shut out some of the
sickeniug smell. The bedrooms where the
officers are compelled to sleep We're also
perneated, aud many of the patrolmen
sought temporary relief by sitting in the
flower garden in front of the station
1t was suggested that Health officer
Woodward be called upon to remedy the
evilaud prevent possible sickness among the

In one of It's latest decisions the SUI.
preme Court declares that negligence
us cause OF action against u rail
road company must be proven, and
that the finding of the body of II man
on the tracks does not create u pre-
sumption that tie came there by reason
of the cOmpany's negligence. This
ruling will have far-reaching effect
upon damage suits brought against
railroad companies for injuries re-
celved on their property. The assump-
ton will be made that the tracks were
amply guarded, and the plaintiff win
be compelled to prove his point and
show by evidence that they We're not.
1t Is notorious that the law regarding
protection mt railroad crossings Is con.
stantly and hagrantly violated. When,
however, the victim to this negligence
has been killed It becomes almost i'm.
possible to bring witnesses to the fac,
Of violation ut the particular time.

Ing their legislature In regard to pro-

4S2,MO woOdchucks, ana that each one
can destroy 500 pounds of clover per
season. -Deducting 10000 from the
above figures, the 100000 remaining
must destroy each season 111.5OO tons
of hay, which at SO n ton gives $IO5,-

woOdchucks. The farmers and thell
boys have consented to run down the
chucks for the astonishing bounty OF

all this, the actual number of wood

The worm has turned. The bitter has
been bitten. Let the unusual fact tie
duly recorded. A few days ago Farmer
John Sheffield. of Manchester Cross
Roads, n. Y. received a mysterious cir.
cular letter inviting him to go to New
York City and buy screen goods" He
went. He was taken In tow by q 'green
goods" operator as soon as he reached
the town and was steered into den In
an obscure hotel. where he met two
other men who had money to sell mt
cut rates. These gentlemen showed
him 81 600 In crisp new bank notes, and
assured him that he could have the
bundle for $500 spot cash. Whereupon
Farmer Sheffield. while examining the
alleged counterfeits. hastily gathered in
the pile, planked down 500 in pay.
nent and pocketed his purchase. The
three swindlers made united rush
upon him. and In just ten seconds lie
had pummeled all of his assailants into
insensibility and sauntcred out Of the
place humming, "This IL the way
long have sought aud mourned because
found 1t not" Farmer Sheffield r.
ported the occurrence to the New York
police, and Ii held to await the appear

double stout, brewed In his new and
finely appointed brewery at SUB to $40
Dudley street, corner of BlOOmlngdale

competent judges fully equal to the
famous imported ales and pOrters.
There Is no reason why they should
not equal the best. The brewery,

Every salOOnkeeper knows that good

There seems to he no doubt about

George a. Trude to succeed themselves

Both these gentlemen deserve to he
thus honored. because both have made

uclic colleagues of the Police Comiuis-
Sion have done. Reform Is all very
well in its way. but the Democratic par.
~ of Chicago Is just now suffering
FROM frightiully large overdose of re-
form. Aud II does seem rather pc |
culiar that 1t Is only the Democratic |
party that seems To he made the victim |
of all the concentrated goodness that Is
abroad and In the air ut present The
Republicans seem tn he getting along
swimmingly. fighting their own fights
out in their own way. settling their
own differences and attending to their
own affairs generally. Theirs Is the
winning policy. The Democrats. ON the
contrary. seem to he irrevOrably en-
mcshcd in the reform web. This latest
result of the move for angelical purity
in public affairs Is particularly harmful
to the party. II has made an activ"
campaign committee of 2W able-bodicd
voters for the Republican party. II Is
hut natural that these men should hold
the Democratic party responsible Cor
the crying injustice that has been done
them. FOR It has occurred under Dem.
ocratic administration. and with u
Democratic chief of police ut the head
of the force Each one of these men
will become u missionary In his waT.
actively working for the Republican
ticket In the forthcoming campaign.
They all have friends and relatives.
and these will also interest themselves
In aiding to bring about the defeat of
the Democratic ticket this spring.
Small wonder. Two hundred an'l
thirty men deprived Of their means of
living and thrown with their families
upon the streets at time when work
IL hard to be- found, IL something which
sounds particularly harsh. II may bc
that the innocent wives and families
