Two serious accidents accidents from which
many people bad miraculous escapes-have &C.
CURED on the building at No. Al Park Row, to
objects which might have caused appalling loss
OF life have on separate occasions fallen from
the roof or while being hoisted TO it. No one was
killed in the first accident, but in that which &C.
CURED yesterday mans life was crushed out.
Accidents of this kind are not frequent in
New-York. The question therefore naturally
arises why two such have happened at this par
tcular building in a comparatively short inter
val. Can it be that the contractors there do not
exercise proper care or have not established ade-
Quate safeguards? 1t is a question which the
Buildings Department should inquire into
closely

EXCESSIVE RATES FOR CABS.

1t must be admitted that the charges usually
exacted for cabs in NewYork are unreasona-
bic. In comparison with the rates imposed IN
most of the well known cities in this Repub-
lie and among other peoples the figures are
above what Is fair. Even admitting that CAP
horses cost considerable money in New YORK
and that the pavements are excessively severe
Oh the animals, the prices usually exacted any
where between the Battery and the upper part
Of the town not of Ii character to be toll
Grated except by the wealthy, many Of whom
are as bitter against inordnate exactOns as
are men OF moderate means. II the cab own
ers should adopt reasonable schedule they
would find their vehicles used much more free
ly It has been the habit, however for cab driv-
ers to insist upon q tariff which is altogether
excessive.
ANY one who studies with care the conditions
Of the carriage service in NewYork knows
that the charges are extreme. 1t is true we
have great number of streetcars, and we have
lust had reason to rejoice over the addition
of a subway service. For the greater part Of
our Transportation over the surface, elevated
and subway roads fares are moderate and just.
But there are certain hours of the day in which
these lines are so crowded that unless one is
fortunate enough TO take a near the outset
Of his journey he will be obliged to stand up
all the way. Moreover, in spite Of the great
host of people In town at present disposition
seems to prevail among railroad managers not
TO do the best possible with the various systems
under their control. 1t is Il dscredit. too TO
city like NewYork that on some of the surface
roads, including especially Park Row, horsecars
are still running, old fashioned constructions
which ought TO have been abolished long ago
The court decision just given that the local
systems OF streetCars in New-York and Brook
lyn must give transfers literally will tend 10
increase the throng of passengers OH the routes
of the companies OH both sides OF the East
River. The jam Will be as great this winter
and next year ever before il not greater
Here is tempting opportunity for the owners
of cabs and carriages for hire.

THE Boston Daily Advertiser has succeeded
in producing what 1t evidently considers fairly
satisfactory explanation OF Harvards poor
showing in football and In rowing. The ex-
PLANTATION. like that OF Columbus in regard
to the egg is very simple. and I'm that
respect 1t bears a resemblance to many
other equally great discoveries. The Adver-
tiser" find that the winning football teams come
not from universities located In great cities
like New-York. Chicago, Philadelphia or Bos-
ton, but from universities located in small towns
or cities where, THE Advertiser remarks
there is little else to attract the enthusiasm
OF the students" In short. ii says the interest
in football is chiefly provincial" while to out
siders the interest lies 'in the viciously fought
struggle, with the possibility that every now
land then a player VIII be laid out" Poor
'provincial' Yale and Princeton! and poor spec
tators animated by such boodthirsty instincts.
