"sEAKJNG Up" DEPARTMENTS.

Tho predicted "shake-up' in the Dock and
Tenement House departments Is in some quar-
ters interpreted as political move on the part
of Mayor Mcclellan to punish his enemies IN
Tammany or to show his Independence OF the
Nurphv regime We hope, however, it is more
fairly to be considered an honest attempt to
improve the administration and weed out poll
Tics from the service. One of the first acts Of
the MAYORS new term was the deposition of
OakIeys man Berlinger whose misconduct as
secretary of the Municipal Civil Service Com
mission was severely commented upon Dy tne
State Civil Service Commission after its tnves-
tigation last summer That same investigation
disclosed many abuses and instances Of appar-
ent political manipulation in the employment OF
persons in the classified service.
The labor class was particularly fertile
field for the cultivation of the Oalzeys, Feather
sons and Cassidys. The State Commission,
while examining only a few laborers picked
more or less at random from the vast number
IN the CITY service, found "foremen" not actu-
ally doing foremen's work, and 1t is highly
probable that large number of men, by manlp-
ulation Of the schedules, have secured UNFAIR
advantages over other applicants for laborers'
nlaces who were not III collision with the ap-
pointing officers and enabled to register on
special lists for which they knew the appoint
ing power would make requlsltlon concerning
tages and were not doing work appropriate to
their titles the State Commission reported that
they Should not be permitted to reap any
further benefit from such appointments beyond
being retained in the exact positions which TREY
now hold, and their transfer to other positions
"on the strength of their present employment
should not be permitted. To prevent this a
probing of the labor service is necessary, and
"the Municipal Commission has full power to
make 1t. Such investigation might also prop
"erly consider the political favoritisms COM
planned Of in the employment Of laborers" After
carefully studying the labor schedules for the
State Commission Chief Examiner Fowler re
ported to it that while the political favoritism
did not seem to affect the action of the NUM-
cipal Commission itself in any direct way, yet
"a mass of evidence along this line tends to con-
vince one that there is a great abuse"
Frequent complaints have since been made of
the improper employment of laborers In the
Dock Department, and If the Mayor really
means TO have a housekeeping and back up
the Municipal Commission in the good work OF
which it gives a hint in the reorganization of its
Office, he will do well to have that thorough
investigation Of the labor service which the
State Civil Service Commission recommended

HOSPITAL CARS ON RAILWAYS,

In its latest issue Engineering News de-
scribes what is probably the most elaborate pro-
vision ever made by a railroad company for the
care of injured passengers. special car has
been completed for the Southern Pacific in which
there are twelve berths, quarters for surgeon,
an operating room and kitchen. The same
corporation has ordered several other cars, WHICH
are not so commodiOus or expensive, but when
are TO serve the same general purpose. In tax
ing this action the Southern Pacific is not set
ting a new example, but the hospital car is at
present q good deal of a novelty. 1t has been
adopted on only a very few lines and its central
idea has, in the particular specimen here re-
ferred to- been worked out with completeness
that appears to have no precedent.
If a car costing, as this one did, $4,000, were
to stand idle most Of its lifetime, there might
be a question Of the exped1ency Of the invest
ment but it appears that the Southern Pacific
car f. adapted to more than a single class Of
service. The berths may be deposited in re-
ceptacIes under the floor and replaced with COM
Portable chairs similar disposition may be
made of the surgeons table. When 1t Is not
deemed advisable to keep it in readiness for
emergency demands. the car could be devoted
to private use either by railway officials or per-
sons who wished to charter IT.
There IS another consideration which might
be regarded as a more serious objection than
the one tust mentioned to initiating the course
of the Southern Pacific Inasmuch as no one
can foresee exactly where an accident Will
hanpen # would be necessary to have num-
Der of these cars, suitably distributed to meet
the requirements Of an extensive railway system
like the Southern Pacific or some OF the Eastern
roads which have determined to employ them.
On the other hand, the voluntary adoption OF
means to reduce the suffering Of injured pas
sengers and increase their chances Of recovery
ought to prove advantageous to any transporta-
ton company employing them. Much ignorant
prejudice might be removed by the pursuance of
so conspicuously humane policy, and popular
good will IS. sometimes convertible into profits.
Even If the necessity for using them should
never arise, the addition of few hospital cars
to the equipment Of a railroad might not De
bad investment

nomena observed at widely separated points;
but it complexities the problem to be solved. The
task is further embarrassed by uncertainty as
to the quantity Of air which GENES from the
equator further north than latitude 30; for that
is about the limit of the upper currents which
overlie the trades.
When more is known about the general cir
culation of the atmosphere 1t may turn out that
heavy rainfall in one part of the globe and
either an acceeration or a weakening of the
trade winds are both effects Of some one cause.
The coincidence pointed out by Mr.. Shaw should
not be dismissed too hastily by meteorologists.
He may have offered clew that VIII lead to
important results. 1nasmuch as the maximum
stage of precipitation in England seems to lag
a few weeks behind the maximum of wind force
at st. Helena, systematic observation of the
latter may prove an aid to forecasting for the
United Kingdom, If not for other parts of the
world.

vETE0Ro1oGIC4L PARALLEL.

4 curious coincidence is noted by Mr.. W. n.
Shaw IN Nature" On the island Of St Helena
the average wind velocity for the last htteen
wears has fallen to the lowest point III May
and reached its greatest extreme III SePlehlpel.
Monthly means of rainfall IN Southern Ehgl'lhd
Co, +tirtv-fve wears show similar oscillation
ho+vvoon t1vo extremes. the minimum appearing
late in the spring and reaching into June anu
the maximum occurring in October. Ihree more
detailed instances of such correspondence are
,,,o,,+iopad nv the same writer. During the first
half of 1899 England suffered from prolonged
droptb and the wind at that time at st. Helena
was feebIer than IT ever has been since. On the
o+bar hand there was an excess of precipitation
in the one locality and stronger winds IN the
other in 1903 than for many years previous
Again in 1898 there were two ma1ima OF rain
fall in England and two maXima of wind force
at st Helena.
Though Mr. Shaw cautiously hints that n re
Iationship may exist between the two sets OF
phenomena, he refrains from discussing the
mechanism which governs and might possibly
connect them. Any one who attempts to explain
the parallel which he reveals must deal with
two puzzIng facts The island on which Ma
poleon was imprisoned is on the other side of
the equator from England, lying in south latitude
10. Again, it is in one of the great trade wind
belts. and the circulation in these-at the sur
face OF the earth, at any rate-is distinct from
that of the atmosphere further away from the
equator. Beyond irregular but practically per
maneut zones of calm that follow rather closely
the 3Oth parallels of north and south latitude
independent systems prevail. Here the wind
blows first from one point Of the compass and
then from another, instead of coming steadily
from one quarter.
The first of the difficulties specified is, perhaps,
the more serious-not because there is little
interchange Of atmosphere between the two hem
ispheres, but because there is a seasonal diff
ference between opposite sides of the equator.
The trades are produced by the rise Of hot air,
and the draught in the southern trade wind belt
is caused by the same force that operates in
the northern belt If it were found that varia-
lions in the intensity Of the trades on this side
Of the equator correspondent with those on the
other, the problem would be simplifed; but 1t
won't do TO take anything for granted At st.
Helena September is a spring month, and the
conditions prevailing there then exist over the
North Atlantic in latitude 10 in March With
out definite proof to the contrary. IL may be as
sured that in the Northern Hemisphere the
trades are at their minimum when they are at
their maximum at st. Helena. Englands eX-
cessive rainfall, then, is apparently associated
with the least output Of energy in the northern
trade wind belt The fact--if il be Il facts
not necessarily fatal 70 the supposition that
there is a relationship between weather phe-

sUGAR AND THE PHILIPPINES.

The case made against the Philippine Tariff
bill by Republican Insurgents in the House of
Representatives has been singularly illogical
and ineffective. They have substituted glttering
generaliIies for tangible arguments and demon
strable facts Most Of the opposition comes
from members in whose districts the beet sugar
Industry has been established, and the burden
Of their complaint has been that the Payne
bill sacrifices the American sugar producer out
OF a mistaken impulse Of generosity toward the
"brown brother" in the Philippines This is
echo-and feeble echo--of the argument made
against reciprocity with Cuba Four years ago
the same protest was heard from the
quarter. The sugar and tobacco interests were
convinced that the admission of Cuban sugar
and tobacco at reduced rates spelled ruin for
their market Congress- It was urged was neg
iecting the welfare Of its own household and
piunging into sentimental foreign charities 1t
was said then, as it is said now, that we
were stripping our own people Of the profits
OF their industry and turning those profits over
to strangers.
More Difference would be paid this argument
to-day il it had not failed entirely in the prac
tice we have had under our reciprocity agree
ment with Cuba. We allowed the Cuban pro-
Queer Of sugar q rebate in duty of 90 per cent.
yet apparently that concession has not ruined
the American sugar industry. The American
sugar planter has lot been forced to sell his
crop at so per cent Of its former price simply
because the Cuban planter pays 20 per cent
less duty on the sugar he sends to this coun-
trv. Sugar values are not determined by so
simple 4 process. According to figures just
issued by the Bureau Of Statistics Of the De
partment Of Commerce and Labor, the United
States consumed In the fiscal year 190+'05
1882 90, 256 pounds of sugar. OF this total
1867 $50 $50 pounds were produced at home
Cuba sent US 2,057, 690899 pounds, Java 899394,
575 pounds and Hawaii $50, 721 ,3S7 pounds. The
rest came from Porto Rico, Germany, Belgium,
Mexico. the Philippines. the West Indies (other
than Cube and Porto RIco) and South America.
The product Of Hawaii and Porto Rico comes
in free the product Of Cuba pays so per cent
of the Dingley rates, the product Of the Philip
pines IS per cent, the product Of Java, Germany
and the rest Of the world the full Dingley duty.

33 per cent roughly speaking, is subject to
full tariff rates and % per cent TO no tariff
rate at all The other - per cent pays either

POLES AND WIRES IN BROOKLYN.

Mr. Coler is to be commended for his inquiry
into the status of the electric poles and over
head wires in Brooklyn. There can be little
doubt that the borough has been badly treated
in the matter. 1t was half generation ago
that Manhattan-then the city Of New-York-
abolished such things. It was a good many
wears back that Brooklyn took some steps tow
ard doing So The need of abolition is as great
in Brooklyn to-day as 1t was IN Manhattan
fifteen years ago. Yet there the poles and
wires remain on many Of the chief thorough
fares an eyesore an obstruction and danger.
It is bad enough for Brooklyn to be cursed
with overhead trolley wires, which IN some
places. as around the Borough Hall. form a
veritable network between earth and sky, and
are a Disagreement to almost every important
thoroughfare. One of these days they will be
regarded as intolerable and will all be put
under ground. That time however, is not yet.
But there can be no sufficient excuse for the
maintenance Of the telegraph, telephone and
electric light poles and wires all over the city In
recent years some wires have been put under
ground or transferred from streets TO back
yards, but it is credibly stated that still more
have been strung on the streets, so that the
number Of miles of overhead wires IN Inc
streets is actually increasing.
President Coler may not be as expert an
axeman for choppng down poles as was Mayor
Grant but he can surely find some other and
not less effective way of Kidding his borough
of this nuisance.
