The Arrest of Mrs Trantman-

1t seems well-nigh incredible that the
wife Of a respected citizen, guiltless Of
any offense against the laws Of the land,
could be seized and thrown into a COM
mon felon's cell upon the bare accusation
Of a comparatively obscure stranger. And
yet that is precisely what happened in
New York City the other day when Mrs
James Trautman. wife of a well-known
surgeon Of that city, was arrested upon
the charge OF picking the pocket of "a
stranger in a hallway. around or about
the "Tenderloin,' of some 81.
The hearing disclosed a case of mis-
taken identity, and the real culprit is
thought to oe a well-known character
about the city. who had previously given
trouble along the same lines Mrs Traut-
man was shown % have been at her home
at the time Of the alleged theft
1t is not strange that striking re-
semblances between people should lead tC
queer, and often grotesque. complications.
The police are not TO blame for that But
how 1t happened that Mrs Trautman,
perfectly able to give an account Of her
self evidently of respectable appearance.
and rendering names of other highly re-
spectacle citizens by whom she might in
stantly have been identified, was. never
theless, thrown into d common cell, there
10 await tardy investigation, is something
that cannot be satisfactorily explained.
There can be no possible excuse for such
treatment Police officers are not noto-
riOusly careful as a rule. about such
things as this. Too many of them are
prone to consider everything FISH that
comes to their nets. The very fact that
mere suspicion IS enough to warrant the
legal detention Of a supposed criminal
ought in itself cause police officers TO be
most careful in handling such cases. Mrs
Trautman might have been politely and
tactfully detained while the matter was
being looked into-and her humiliation
would have been bad enough then, but 1t
would not have been unreasonable. Lock
ing her in a cell with several degraded
women was outrageous.
The conclusion is inevitable-0nly men
of unmistakabIe intelligence should be
given positions on the police forces Of
the cities under the Jurisdiction Of which
such contingencies are apt to arise. A lit
tie common sense upon the part of the
police officer who took Mrs Trautman in
charge would have prevented great
wrong.

therefore. we assert that the present sys-
TEN, even If honestly followed, is bad
enough.
But when It is shown that the daily
weight averages, and. Of course. the total
compensation Of the railroads. are in
creased by arithmetical juggling. prompt
action is demanded, to the end that the
mulcting Of the government may be
stopped II no fairer way of determining
the daily-weight averages can be devised
than the plan Of weighing the mails for
ninety days, and compromising the rail
roads for a year or more on that basis.
the figures representing the total weight
carried in those ninety days should be
divided by ninety in order to ascertain
the correct daily averages, instead OF by
seventy-eight-the total number Of days
in the weighing period less the number
Of Sundays therein. That fact is so plain
that no honest and intelligent man will
attempt to argue to The contrary-assum-
ing. Of course, that the railroads carry
the mails every day, as is the case. gen.
orally.
