WHAT THE FIRE COMMISSIONER KNOWS.

WHAT THE FIRE COMMISSIONER KNOWS.
On Monday evening, while perhaps still in
state of excitement due TO the Warren-st. disas-
ter. Fire Commissioner Scannel said:
There are other similar concerns that pay little
heed to the law. have in mind one firm which
carries far greater quantity of explosives than
that which was stored here We are constantly
in fear of trouble from that quarter. and instruc-
lions have been given to take the greatest pre-
cautions in case a fire occurs in the neighoor-
hood Of the building occupied by the firm to
which I refer. No, do not care to give the
name of that firm now. I shall have the matter
looked after Immediately.
1t is, of course, consoing to reflect that in this
instance the door may be locked before the
horse escapes but the Commissioners remarks
are nevertheless not entirely satisfactory. If
he has known as he emphatically says he has
that various establishments were violating the
law, and that one firm in particular was gross
offender why, it is reasonable to ask, has he
waited until now 10 have the matter looked
after? And If. as he also declares, his opinion
is that drug firms have been in the habit OF
watching for the visits of his inspectors and
temporarily reducing their excessive and Illegal
supplies of explosive materials to correspond,
why has he so considerably refrained from or
dering inspections to be made at unexpected
times? 1t is likely to occur to simple hearted
citizens that Mr.. Scannelrs Indignation would
be more becoming and more useful II it were
directed to some extent at least against the
department of which he is the single head.
If the provisions Of the charter which were
designed to prevent such calamities as that
which now engrosses public attention suit

reasonably entertained, it would seem to be
evident, on the authority of the Fire Commits
siOner himself that they have not been properly
enforced. He now assures the community that
he is going to be alert and vigorous in his treat
ment of offenders, and we hope he will keep
his promise If he knows that the law has been
broken aud who has broken it he is presumably
able to demonstrate his knowledge in court and
procure the infiction of a fitting punishment
He will find on examination of the charter that
the crime he charges is as serious in the eye of
the law as it is in the judgment of the COM
| munity.

IN HEHORIAM.

It has often been observed that men are prone
to attribute to others qualities which they dis
Germ in themselves. 1t is not surprising, there
fore that Richard Croker should constantly
refer TO Governor Roosevelt as that wild lhan.
Certainly no man not supposed to be actually IN
need of a keeper was ever wilder in his talk
than Tammanys ruler and prophet has been
during this campaign. Having defiantly broken
at the outset his own prudent rule OF silence
he has grown more violent from week to week.
His latest explosion, corresponding to that
which occurred the same day among inanimate
objects in Warren-st, blew his last remnant or
discretion to fragments. On Monday evening
he advised all Democrats to surround the polling
places on election night, count noses" and 'if
1.-The vote doesn't tally go in and pull out the
fellows in charge"
Now, whether this outbreak indicates merely
an inf1amed temper or an otherwise disordered
mind, it shows that Mr.. Croker is in a danger
GUS state. and we should feel that we had neg
lected a serious duty If we refrained from re-
calling to his recollection the fact that man
named John Y McKane once similarly under
took to be a law unto himself in the matter of
an election, and subsequently spent several
years at hard labor in States prison. He is not
available just now for purposes of advice and
admonition but If he were we should expect
him TO drop Mr. Croker a friendly hint.
