TENEMENTS UNDER THE NEW IA


1t is notable fact that in spite of all the
dire predictions made at the time of the passage
Of the new Tenement House law the actual CON
structiOn of houses under its provisions has
already begun. A considerable number of plans
for new apartments in The Bronx on the West
Side and in Harlem have been filed since April
y, when the new law became effective; and
more interesting still, plans for tenements in
the congested East Side districts have been
submitted to the Department of Buildings in
the last few days. This is particularly remark
able because. owing TO the fact that the city was
so greatly overbuiIt and so many tenement
plans were filed in anticipation of the new
law, it was generally believed that it would he
at least year or two before its effects became
apparent And it is encouraging to note that
the builders, in spite Of their early opposition
TO the present statute and in spite of their fire.
quent asseveratiOns that Outer courts with
minimum width of six feet, inner courts with
minimum width of twelve and yards with
minimum depth of ten were not compatible
with n living profit, have set themselves quietly
to the problem and are rapidly working it out
1t only goes to show, what was evident at the
time, that the most strenuous opponents of the
new law five months ago were those who had
taken the least pains to study it's provisions.
The result of their recent application means
nothing less than revolution in the present
housing conditions of -YOrk-whch means.
of course, radical betterment of our civic life.
Particular attention will be attracted by the
efforts now being made TO apply the new law
TO our most congested tenement districts. Here
the nroblem it must he admitted, is peculiarly
difficult The builders and investors are faced
on the one hand with the fact that the market
price of East Side lots is comparatively high,
and on the other. with the fact that the rentals
are omparatively low. 1t is evident that the
building of a five story tenement ON a lot
that costs from 5000 to $4,000, prevailing
prices in several OF the tenement quarters, is

The embattled farmers of the veldt have so
obstructed the operations of the diamond mines
of the Darkest Continent that cutters Of gems
in Antwerp and Amsterdam are in dire dis
tress. and ward bosses in American cities have
discarded the wearing of low necked waistcoats-
The corn crop, the potato crop and the apple
crop are short in more than one State of the
Union. and several countries in Europe are dis
turbed over the outlook for their harvests. Now.
if the diamond crop is scanty this season the
prophets of evil who have been predicting hard
times and general unhappiness will take great
comfort in their croakings.
New-York tribune., 1901-09-09

As this issue of The Tribune goes to press
the news concerning the President is wholly
reassuring His physicians in their latest even
ing bulletin announced that they had detected
no unfavorable symptom of any kind, but
found his condition satisfactory. This does
not mean that the danger of sinister complca-
tions has passed. but from this time forward
the chances of his recovery will greatly in
crease with every succeeding hour of freedom
from Inflammation consequent upon his wounds.
The Presidents serene courage has been ex-
ceedingly helpful to him. and that advantage is
sure TO be retained. Deep anxiety must con-
tinue for a while but hope is surely and rea-
sOnably succeeding to dependency. In the
relief and gratitude of the American people at
the prospect that the Presidents life will be
spared the whole world joins.

Humbert was glorihed as a hero and martyr. The
dongs Of this gang Of anarchists have brought re-
proach upon the city Of Paterson and upon the
State at large to such an extent that the reputa-
BILE citizens OF Paterson have been discussing ways
and means for effacing the opprobrium that at

An Execution In China,

The poor wretches We're made to dig
q large square pit, and one by one they
We're made kneel at the edge with
their hands tied behind their backs. A
japanese officer stepped forward and
with the ordinary service sword drew
1t back and forward over the poor
wretch's neck, and then with swift
blow it descended, cutting off the head.
The next one was as successful, and
then came terrible spectacle. The Jap
anese officer. after wiping his sword.
drew the back to and fro over the
poor wretch's neck three or four times
before he struck the fatal blow. Down
came the blade on the apex Of the skull,
cutting about two inches into the neck.
The poor wretch fell into the pit, the
Japanese officer climbing down and
saving away at the neck until the head
was severed. The heads were immedi-
ately carried over to the main road and
strung up OH poles as an object lesson

were congregated around with blanch-

akin to those of drunkard who has
been under alcoholic stimulation for
long time and suddenly has his drink

system feels the lack of the Irritation
and stimulation of the city noise, to
which it has become accustomed. The
stiffness actually appals and depresses
