New York City must pay up its back taxes on
account of the care of the insane under the state
Care act. This is the ruling Of the court OF last
resort and all that has been gained by the litiga-
ton is the privilege Of paying interest on the
sum due The total amount to be met Is close
10 s5OO0OO0, which, we suppose must be pro-
yided for by the Board Of Estimate. In the light
Of this decision 1t is palmer than ever that
grave mistake was made last spring when the
bill turning over the care Of the INDECENT insane
of the city to the State failed to become law.
The non-actlon of Mayor Strong has always been
iucxpllcabe. The result is simply that the tax
navers Of Ncw-York have to carry the double
hurlon one year longer than would have been

The first celebration Of Commercial Day in
this city was q gratifying success from every
point Of view. December 10 marks the cen
tcnnial anniversary Of the negotiation Of the
commercial treaty with Great Britain by Jay
and the annual observance OF the day is planned
for by those most deeply concerned in the cele
bration which took place last evening. Mr. De
pew who is, we believe. largely responsible for
the celebration, improved the opportunity afford
ed by his speech 10 emphasize the Importance
OF arbitration in the settlement of international
disputes and to enter a strong plea in favor Of
the continuance Of the course hitherto pursued
by the United States in this matter.
Mr.. Erastus Winan has many friends who
have stood manfully by him in spite Of the rOu
bles in which he has been involved for the last
year and half; and they will rejoice with him
heartily at the decision Of the Court Of Appeals
yesterday setting aside the verdict Of the jury
which declared him guilty Of forgery. Mr.
Wiman thus emerges from his fluctuations with
a clean bill Of health and it Is understood that
the Dstrict-Attorney will take no further steps
In the matter save 10 move for the dismissal Of
the indictment His offence appears 10 have
been only technically crime, but on the
strength Of his own admissions the jury felt
bound TO convict him, while making an urgent
Recommendation TO mercy. Mr.. Wiman has had
brilliant caree. in this community, and has
disclosed great executive and organizing powers.
II may well be that chastened by misfortune,
he will yet enjoy opportunities for usefulness
commensurate with his acknowledged ability.

that the members Of that body are favorable
