GAMBLERS AND POLICE.

The pretence of the police that they cannot
find gambling houses or get sufficient evidence
against them TO secure conviction has received
q rude shock. The Society for the Prevention
of Crime organized a raid of its own on Monday
evening under warrant from Magistrate Flam-
mer, and, carefully concealing its intended
movements from the police of the precinct in
which the gambling den existed, managed to
find the place running at full blast, and took
120 prisoners and three wagonloads of gam
bling apparatus to the police station.
Do the Police Commissioners need any better
evidence to convince them that their subordi-
mates are playing with the gamblers and pro-
tecting them? Two weeks ago information was
given to the police of the existence Of
gambling house in the Bowery and a raid was
organized, but when the officers had arrived
they could see no evidence of gambling Then
the game was moved elsewhere and the au-
thorities professed themselves unable to find
It, though private citizens had no difficulty in
learning its whereabouts and now by private
enterprise 1t has been stopped, thanks to the
discretion which gave the police no chance to
warn their partners and friends
What does President York think Of this ex-
hibition of inefficiency and rascality the part
of his force? What is he going to do about the
failure of the former raid though men who
were in the room when it was made declare
that the evidence of gambling was plain, but
that the officers persstently refrained from see
ing it? Is he still prepared to put faith in his
men when he sees that the way to raid gam
blers successfully is not to tell the police be-
forehand? We do not believe Mr.. York likes TO
bear the burden Of protecting Tammany gam
blers and blackmailers. Yet his credulity or
his complacency as head of the Police Depart
ment is causing the decent people of this city to
think that he knowingly consents to the faunt-
ing immortality which everybody who wants to
can see and which few people can believe Mr..
York does not unless he wilfully closes his
eyes

THE DANGER FROM TRUSTS

The existence Of great corporations with
stocks that are far in excess of the appraised
valuation of their entire property, goodwill in
cluded, and with constant need to seek loans
for the prosecution of their business has been
recognized for more than nine months as hav-
ing had and as still likely to have in future an
important influence in the markets. Some have
blunty declared that 1.-The next great panic"
with general prostraton of industries would
come from that cause and when weakness
of industrial and street railway stocks dragged
down the whole market on December %
they were supposed to be about right by
many, the Secretary of the Treas
ury apparently taking that view. But 1t
is well In this matter as in others, to get rid
as far possible Of such fears as are baseless
Substantial reasons for apprehension should be
fully recognized, but not magniied and multi
piled by excessive tmidity. It is to be recog-
nized that there are outstanding stocks and
bonds of So. 1873 100000 par value issued by in
dustrial companies formed in 1899 which rep
resent property and business by promoters
themselves appraised at less than 81, 100,000000,
besides a few corporations OF similar character
formed late in 1898.
Roughly speaking, the market value of the
preferred stocks Of these co2cerns has dropped
