1t is to be hoped the Board of Alder.
men will grant the new franchise t.
the Staten Island Rapid Transit al
their meeting tonight. No n denies
that the animal rental of 800 for the
first ten years and 5000 for the re,
manning fifteen years is small and
there is hardly a doubt but that the
ferry and docking privilege at the foot
of Smith street, will be worth many
times that amount twenty-five years
hence, but let us look on the other
side.
Here is a railroal company with a
terminus in Perth Amboy and running
to New ork which is actually de-.
sirous of improving it's service. While
the lease only provides for a new and
modern ferryhouse, we are assured
that a new boat will be put on and
that many more express trains will BIT
run to st. George where the new
elghteen-minute ferryboats will carry
the passengers to the city: This is
something the people want.
How different are the conditions in
regards to the Central railroad. That
company will not even give the local
patrons lights at the station. Nothing
is done toward improvement. All
efforts to secure relief have amounted
to naught. People have suggested the
boycott and other extreme means OF
bringing the Central to terms. The
Staten Island offers relief. 1t wants
to please the people of Perth Amboy.
Why not assist them and show the
Central railroad hat the city means
business? AS long as the people are
crying for relief in the train service
any company that is willing to give it
should be given public support.

The reports read at the meeting of
the Board of Governors of the City
Hospital, Friday, shows two things.
In the first place it is evident that q
hospital can be maintained in this city
and, secondly, that it requires a large
amount of money to do it. From the
y financial report published in Sntur-
n~day's Evening News, it is evident
lat the institution is being run IN an
knomical manner and the report a
lit to the management. While
erous donations have been received

t6f6ueh tie oflelnafy channel to meet
the running expenses. 1t remains,
therefore that if any additions are to
be built or the facilities of the insti-
tuition are to be increased, the cost
must be met in some manner other
than the ordinary course pursued by
those who are laboring continually
for the cause.
1t was shown at the meeting OF tie
Board of Governors Friday night that
a morgue is an absolute necessity. In
fact, no such institution is complete
without one. When a death occurs it
is essential that there should be a
place TO lay the body where it can be
properly cared for until friends or re-
latives arrive to take charge or until
arrangements can be made for burial.
1t was stated Friday night tnat some
times when a patient dies it is neces-
sary to place the corpse in a ward
along with the sick. Such n thing
khould never be. Hospital patients
re too prone to let their mind dwell

New Orleans, Oct. 1A-The local clm. mittee having in charge the arranging ot the details for the Interstate Missi ppl River Levee Convention. which opens here on the 27th, have completed the important schedule of railroad rates for the oca- sion.
 The Southeastern Passenger Association which covers all the territory south of the Ohio and Potomac Rivers and east of the Mississippi River, has autho ized a rate of one first class far9 with 25 cents additional for the round trip. This rate is good from October 25 to 30, inclusive.
 The Southwestern Passenger Associa- ton, which takes in the corresponding ter- ritory west of the Mississippi River. has authorized the same rate with the excep- ton that g are added additional inste d of 25 cents.
 The Western Passenger Associa ton, in- cludlng all the territory north of St. Louis to St. Paul, covering among others the States of Minnesota and Iowa, has authorized a one and ole-third rate for the round trip.
 The Central Passenger Association. which takes in all that territory east of Cincinnati, has likewise authorized a round trip rate of one and one-third fare. So far more than 1000 delegates have sent in their names slgnifying their intention of being present. The convention. there- fore. promises to be the largest that has ever been held in thS. city.
