ANOTHER LAME ORDINANCE.

The total lack Of success which fortunately
attended the Ingenious effort Of Alderman
Stapleton 10 get rid of that much discussed but
imperfecuy identified person, the lend seat
hog" has not deferred one Of bis colleagues
from tackling the passenger who stands be-
tween the seats Of open cars. At yesterdays
meeting OF the board Mr.. Downing, Of Brooklyn,
introduced an ordinance providing that every
person who presumes to occupy n portion of the
space so described and who refuses 10 vacate
the same on request shall be guilty Of q INSIDE
meanor and punished, on conviction, by fine
Tot exceeding SO by Imprisonment for not
more than three months, by both fine and

The first query which Alderman DOwnings
proposition raises relates 10 the power of the
aldermen 10 interfere after this fashion with
the habit which the street railroad comnanies
have Joyfully encouraged and the public has al
most universally acquired; but we suppose that
they can do it under those general provisions
OF the charter which authorize them 10 pass
such ordinances rs they deem necessary and
proper for the good government order and nro-
lection OF persons and property and for the
preservation Of The health peace and prosperity
OF the city and its inhabitants. Furthermore
The experiment which AR. Downing proposes fs
one which we should like 10 see made under
conditions adapted 10 afford fair test Of the
merits or the question Persons standing be-
tween the open car seats are necessarily ohiec-
tionable 10 those sitting behind them who are

course, would be glad Of seat. but tho street

THAT AUTOMOBILE ACCIDENT.

There is discrepancy In the testimony which
has been offered in regard 10 the shocking ac-
cidcnt that occurred on Sunday near the Van
Cortlandt Park station OF the New-York Cen
tral road. On tho one hand IL Is asserted that
the driver OF the automobile Spencer. attempted
to change the course of the vehicle before reach
Ing the railway track. and might thus have
avertcd n collision had not another occupant
Of the carriage intcrfercd. This story is told
by the fireman of the engine which wrecked the
automobile. On the other hand. the tlagman al
the crossing. Williams declares that Spencer
wilfuly ignored all warnings. and even threat
cncd TO run MIN down. The driver himself
apparently makes no effort 10 cxculpatc him
self by rciterating the firemans statement. IL
is remotely possible that his employer. Mr.
Noakes has taken steps TO insure silence out
Of consideration for the family Of Mr. Read
Even So ii is hard to see how the fagman
could he mistaken. or what motive he could
have for misrepresentation.
Upon another phase of the tragedy there Is
less uncertainty. 1t was enacted in what had
long been recognized as dangerous locality
steep grade, the observation OF the view 10
the southwark by bushes and other obstruc-
TONS and the number of railway tracks to he
crossed there made particularly unfortunate
combination. 1t appears that the New-York
Central company had matured plans for getting
rid Of the peril in the best possible manner. An
Improvement which involved the raising of its
own tracks ana the depression Of the common
highway Was in contemplation us long ago as
last summer. 1t has been customary when both
4 ailroad and Il municipality are mutually ben
Gifted by such a change to divide the expense
The New-York Central naturally sought finan-
cal cooperation from the city in this under
taking. its oYprtures being addressed to the
Park Commissioner of the Borough Of The
Bronx When that official replied that he had
no money which could he devoted to the work.
the railroad company was unwilling TO go ahead
alone. 1t would be unjust TO blame it. either.
Not only in New York City, but elsewhere also
along its lines, there are probably other grade
crossings which ought TO be abolished TO
sumo more than its share OF the expense in a
single instance, therefore. would establish bad
precedent. Delay in carrying out such plans is
often attended with fatal consequences, but in
the present instance the responsibility does not
appear to rest with the railroad company.
