 There was an exciting runaway on Bank street this morning. W. D. Richardsons colt broke away at the Naug- atuck depot and started for home with lightning speed. Mir Richardson was tossed out onto the snow, but fortunately escaped unhurt The animal made things lively along the street and crossed the Bank street bridge and over the New Eng land crossing with such speed that pedes- trians and drivers of vehicles scarcely had time to get out of the way. At the corner of Riverside and Bank streets Police Off, cer John Brickel made a desperate effort to stop the runaway, but the speed of the animal was so great that it was impossible for a man to come within reach of him He flew up past the Mahaney hotel. A trolley car was coming along the street and spectators held their breath thinking the animal was sure to be dashed to pieces against the car. In front of James Hori gan's store a milkmsn made a sudden bound and grabbed the animal and after 6 desperate struggle succeeded in securing the horse. MT Richardson soon appeared and learning of the perilous feat per formed by the mllkman handed the lattei something substantial for his services

Under Military Rule.

Every effort 10 settle the strike of the trolley operatives has been without satis- factory results The strikers, through their executive committee have made con cesSion after concession, and the only point upon which they have stood out was that the companies should re-emplOy all their old men.
 This was ilatly refused by kc presidents of the companies at confercnce with May or Schieren, at which were present Messrs. Connolly, Best and Giblin of the strikers executive committee and Presi dents Lewis, Norton and Wicker of the Brooklyn Heights, Atlantic and Brooklyn And Queens County systems of trolley cars respective ly. President Lewis mado it q point that he is in honor bound to retain the men he has employed since the strike began. This the strikers will not acoedc to.
 A day of great disorder has just passed The city is virtually under military rule. Streets are blocked against pedestrians by cordons of soldiers, and any one who stops to argue the point is told to walk around the block while glistening bayonet is held within two inches of his face. Thousands of morbidly curious citizens flocked to the scenes of the riots and helped to swell the crowds that gathered to do mischief The green hands had some rough experiences all through the day, and 6 breakdown of any kind was the signal for the formation of q savage mob and for the rapid demolition of all tho glasswork in the car. On the Court Street and Fifth Avenue lines fully half the cars are in a | very dilapidated condition, and if the present attitude of the men is maintained | the other half will soon be as bad The various mobs that gathered at the car sta bles and along the tracks of the tied mp lines numbered at least 30,OOO. Perhaps | this is eyon an underestimate, for there were mobs big and little in almost every section of the city
 2 Cars Went Astray.
 | Many'ca cars went astray yesterday. The switches were broken. and obstacles were heaped on athe tracks. Wires were cut at
 various points, and on,s tho whole the day was full of petty annoyanees for the rail l road companies. Motormen abandoned their cars at various points and in some instances left ths city aS soon as they pos, sibly could, so serious did the situation seem. Blood was spilled in quantities, but no one was seriously hurt. Several shots were fired at car ai | Fifth avenue and Twelfth street, the bul. let's passing through the windows and em. bedding themselves in the woodwork. Nc arrests were made.

While there is good deal of dispute


While there is a good deal of dispute
as to the fairness and equity of an In
come tax, it is popular with the mass Of
the people because it seems to strike at
the rich . men. The Astors, Vandcrbilts.
Goulds, Rockefellers, and men of that
class will be obliged to pay anywhere
from $5o,ooot to 100000 apiece in tax
es which they have hitherto escaped en-
tirely. But it is not so certain that the
tax will come out of their pockets. There
are many ways in which capitalists can
recoup themselves on the public for their
income tax outlay, by establishing high
er charges for the services, rentals or ar
ticles from which theirincome is derived
The persons upon whom the tax will fal

or incomes from permanent invest

What they Wanted,

Gail we want is money; sleep on.''
This was the inscri ption which house
breakers at West Rutherford, N. j., left
in pencil upon bedroom door. They
were very considerate. They chlero-
formed the master and mistress of the
house; they operated with such perfect
quiet, that none of the other inmates
were awakened, and then they made off
with 1926. Would they have been so
polite and humane, if they had been
vigorously interrupted?--if they had
found the chances Of arrest and long
Imprisonment unpleasantly great? The
law which made highway robbery and
night burglary capital crimes did so be-
cause of the danger to human life from
those crimes; and the fears of nocturnal
invasion of our premises is not so much
the fear of losing our property. as Of
being murdered if we SO much as Whis-

ho,isehol ders, and also with the POLICIES
to prevent him from entering at all ;andl,
considering the risks, it must be conced-
cd that we are exceedingly careless in our
precautions.
there Is one precaution, of very def
mite and PRACTICAL charac ter which every "
body can take. notwithstanding many
tragic warnings, people will still keep
securities, valuable plate and jewelry,
ana considerable sums of money in their
houses, not IN safes, as they would keep
property in their places Of business, but
IN drawers, OF trunks, which. even if
locked, are easily opened. They cannot
conceal these things from their servants
and OF the character Of those. servants
they frequently know nothing. A pro-
fessional burglar is always too sharp to
work upon guesses or uncertainties
When he enters with designs upon things
Of value, he knows that they are under
the roof, and generally knows precisely
where they are. IT they are locked up
in nice little burglar proof safe he will
do nothing SO desperate as to attempt to
open 1t. He will pass to some other
residence. whereas he is well informed
they keep the spoons in the sideboard
drawers, and leave the other plate for a
show on closet shelf; or where as he is
told, respectable sum of money may be
found in the pockets of the proprietor Of
the premises, or half dozen gold watch
es and diamond rings may be picked
without any trouble whatever. OF course,
1t the habit were abandoned altogether
of keeping articles of great value or
cash in considerable sums at home, the
enterprising and sagacious Bill Sykeses
would be the first to find out the fact.
They have no passions for nocturnal in
trusion unless something can be made
by it. Neither have they intention of
being detained, even though they may
be detected. The householder. unless
he has the burglar at a great disadvant-
age, would better not attempt to oppose
his exit. It must be borne in mind that
there is not one burglar in a thousand
,1,@x S4~4
rather than submit to capture.
