The InnlsInn Detected.

The Elsberg bill for the extension Of
the powers Of the state Superintendent
of Elections has been amended by the
Senate Committee on Judiciary 50 that
az il reads now the most objectionable
sections proposed in the original draft
are suppressed. The paragraph au-
thorizing the Superintendent and his
deputies 10 invade the homes Of every
resident Of Kings, New York, Queens,
Richmond and Westchester counties at
any time has been stricken out. The
sentences authorizing the appointment
Of 200 permanent deputies to intimidate
the people Of New York have been aban-
doned. Bad the bill still is for il is I'M
lust. discriminating and sectional, like
the law it would amend, hut il is not as
bad as il was az its beginning.
The mobilization of the ElsbarG bill
was not the result Of n change Of heart
on the part Of the politicians who wrote
il and had il introduced. The abandon
ment of certain of its provisions was due
TO the fact that timely discovery was
made Of their intent and scope, and that
the promoters OF the measure feared
to carry out their original programme.
Their sentiment toward the Independent
voters Of New York is unchanged, and
whenever an opportunity offers they
will not hesitate TO use it for tn" annoy
ance and humiliation Of the citizens Of
the metropolitan district. They must be
watched continually.
As THE Sun exposed the odious nature
of the Elsberg amendments to the
Metropolitan Elections District law, and
brought them TO the attention Of the
voters, it is particularly Gratified that
the protest against them has been efec-
tive. We congratulate the people Of
New York, in whose interest the protest
was made

The Formulation Of New York

The population of the city Of New
York, according to the estimate Of the
Federation Of Churches after careful
study Of the situation, was about four
millions last June, the increase since 1900
having been more than half a million. II
that rate of increase continues during the
rest Of the present decade the population
In 1910 will be about four millions and
three-quarters.
That is, in 1910 the population Of New
York will be more than a million and a
quarter greater than in 1900. OF this in
crease probably more than one-third
will be of Jews. which race already now
makes up toward one-ffth of the inhab-
itants In 1900 the population of foreign
birth and parentage constituted about
four-ffths of the whole, in the Borough
Of Manhattan about five-sixths and its
percentage is now increasing because Of
the unprecedentedly great immigration.
At present the aggregate of the dis
tinctively Christian population of the
town is only about two-ffths of the
whole. This includes the whole Of the
Roman Catholic population and the total
number Of Protestant communicates.
Besides these, the Federation estimates
a total of about half million Professionals
who attend church more or less rcgu-
larry and more than million Professionals
who are Churches, or outside OF any
religious faith
New York, therefore. cannot now be
called Christian city. Jews and in
fidels and The reug.ousIy Indifferent or
unattached constitute a majority OF the
inhabitants. The Protestant percentage
ia becoming less, the vast preponderance
of the additions 10 the population being
of Roman Catholics and Jews The total
Of Protestant communicates and church
attendants, a. estimated by the Fedora
ton, j. only about as great AZ that Of the
Jews alone, and by 1910 il is likely to be
much less BY that time there will be
more Jews here than natives Of native
parentagc The Jewish population has
increased from only about per cent. Of
the whole in $50 10 nearly 20 per cent,
in 1905
These are important facts for social,
political and religious philosophers to
bear in mind when they are planning
for the government Of the New York of
the future

The Prize Of Enrs

The market price of garments made

Of little interest TO the American people
for several months. To those who are
likely 20 be concerned in the prices Of
those wares about six months from now
there is a measure Of interest in the an
nouncement that the immediate future
will probably inaugurate another era Of
high prices.
The annual London fur sales are now
ended, and the prices realized show a
general advance over the sales Of last
year, with notable increase in the cost
Of the more valuable furs. Sea otter and
blue fox advanced 10 per cent, mink 65
per cent, otter IS per cent, silver fox
90 per cent, and Russian sable so per
cent. The hide Of the humble muskrat

visitors know what plays are successful
here, and what are not The nose OF the
public Is very sensitive 10 detect failure,
and although a piece might be played
here for months. il would not now on
that account have the least additional
chance for success in the cities that make
up the road"
The necessity OF taking from the stage
the plays that fail is an additional bur-
den TO the managers, for It is not easy TO
find Successors 10 them. Thus it hap
pened that some Of the most popular
New York theaters were closed several
times during the present year at the
height Of the season. The most prob
able result Of this new tendency will be
the cessation Of theater building until
playwrights are more prolific in the
production Of dramas which are able TO
stand up against the now critical require
ments Of the public.
