he presented TO the Board Of Aldermen again
after delay Of six weeks. caused by Mayor
Lows action in opening the whole question
anew to public consideration. The Mayor has
never explicitly accounted for that somewhat
sudden proceeding, but il be supposed that add
flonal pressure in favor of the project would re-
suit from the delay, the event has Enthusiastically
justified his expectation.
The Aldermen can scarcely fail TO perceive
that those members of the board who are still
hostile have only a small minority of the people
behind them. It is said that they are AS numer-
Gus and IS strongly opposed TO the terms agreed
upon by the Rapid Transit Commission and the
company they were when the matter was
temporarily taken out OF their hands: but we
are not quite prepared TO believe that statement
especially IN view Of the fact that Mr.. Cantor
whose lead they have followed. is considerably
less resolute than he was at the outset He is
nor yet openly willing TO abandon his contention
for an eight-hour day, but he is convinced that
the improvement will not be definitely defeated
Possibly he fsncies that the company will ulti-
rnstely accept that condition, but we hardly
think So for evidence that it will or ought to- is
entirely lacking. The company has been thor
oushly frank and straightforward from the
first. Starting with a remarkably liberal propo-
sition, II has readily agreed TO changes which
were reasonable and proper but II has firmly,
rhough IN perfect good temper, refused 10 make
concessions which could not Justly be demand

"FrREwoRKs ORDINANCES.

II Is gratifying to know that we have in this
city ordinances relating to the discharge of FIRE
works. That we have will be news TO many
people: perhaps to most The manner in which
fireworks Of the most offensive kind have been
used in various parts Of the city during the
present year as we'll as for years past, would
indicate that the use Of them was as free and
unrestrained as the drinking OF soda water or
the smoking of cigarettes. The general display
of snowy pyrotechnics has doubtless been con
fined TO certain prescribed times and places
But there are parts of the city, including nrst
rate residence and business streets. not in the
suburban outskirts, but near the heart OF the
city. in which last spring and summer all sorts
of crackers and other explosive devices were
used daily and nightly, in the most public man.
ner. often before the eyes OF the police. There
appeared 10 he no thought Of regulating or re-
straining such practices. Yet we now have 1t,
on the authority Of a resolution which the Alder
men adopted a fortnight ago, that there are
municipal ordinances upon the subject restrain
ing people from using fireworks except under
special permit.
Those ordinances It seems were specially
suspended so as to allow the use Of fireworks
at political gatherings at election time; whence
the appalling disaster Of election night at Madi-
son Square That fact may now be source of
regret to those responsible for it. But, above
and beyond that, the incident Of Tuesday should
cause general heart searching upon the sub
ject OF fireworks. Municipal officers will do
well to consider what the existing ordinances
are, and how dagranty they have been violated
and ignored, and what means should be en-
ployed for making them more than dead letters
upon the local statute book. They will do well
to consider, too whether fireworks in general,
as popularity used, are not a relic of barbarism
which il would be 10 our credit and profit 10
abolish. An artistic display OF colored fires,
produced by skilled men In place and under
circumstances which protect the spectators
from danger, is a beautiful and legitimate thing.
Such display attempted in a crowded street
or square is always a dangerous and may easily
become a disastrous thing, as the CHASTITY record
Of last Tuesday only too plainly shows.
AS for the more common type OF fireworks,
which makes no appeal 20 the sense OF sight,
but merely offends the senses Of hearing and OF
smell, It is in all respects an abOmination. The
only ordinance relating to such things should
be one absolutely prohibiting the use OF them,
and it should be vigorously enforced. This Ia
mented disaster. which merely compressed into
q few moments and into one place a small part
of the yearly destruction wrought by fireworks
throughout the land, may well serve as change
point from which to date the community's
freedom from a form of celebration which is At
once wasteful. brutal and destructive Of prop
erty, limb and life.

COUNSEL IN POLICE TRIALS.

Whispers are adoat that attorneys may be
shut out from the ordinary police trials In Null
berry-st. What a hardship that would be tn
the hectorlng SERGEANT Buzfuzes who have
done so much bullying OF witnesses in their
efforts to clear patrolmen and other officers
who have retained their services! But is it
certain that the members Of the force are IN
sore need of the aid of Dodsons and Toggs
members of the bar to whom they pay so
much
In every ships crew there are sea lawyers"
sharp edged and Ingenious disputatious and re-
sourceful. These barristers and solicitors OF
the forecastle know how TO take care OF them
selves when they summoned before their
superior officers Is II not true that most of
the policemen who are called up for trial in the
Central Office would fare as we'll as they have
been faring if they paid no fees to attorneys?
Whenever men in the department are arraigned
before the courts for misdemesnors or are in
dicted by the grand Jurors for felonies. of
course. then the condition Of things is radically
different Every defendant who must meet an
allegation of guilt, which, If proved, may be
followed by Imprisonment should hire lawyer,
and may often require one of no inconsiderable
ability. But in the average hearings when
mere offences against discipline are in question,
the rank and file Of the police and men of
higher place also can usually hold their own
against their sccusers without calling IN
counsel

Even the hesitation now manifested and the

upon arbitration For the strength and beneh-

good faith Of those who employ it. If either

Of such an increase. In every suit. whether at
