ELEVATED INTERBRIDGE LOOP.
Proposed by Commissioner stevenson as n
Temporary Relief.

mp
Bridge Commissioner Stevenson favofs
the scheme to connect the elevated railroad
IN this borough with the Delaney street
terminal Of the Williamsburg Bridge. He
raid yesterday;
L do not want TO be considered AZ an adj
vocate OF elevated railroad, extensions, nor
do I mean to advocate the abandonment
of subway connection between the bridges.
What I have in mind for quick relief from
existing conditions is the double decking
of the elevated oad from the Brooklyn
Bridge to Delaney street and the Bower
and the construction OF an elevated struct-
ure along Delaney street to the Williams
burg Bridge entrance. Such a structure
should be built and owned by the city. IT,
could be leased to an operating company,
and when the subway connection between
the bridges is completed the lease could De
terminated and tho structure torn down
This is only q temporary measure and l
do not believe there would be objection
anywhere. The Manhattan Bridge has
been designed for both subway, and .ele-
waited service and when the Brooklyn Bridge
is reconst ructed IL will he double deckedi
that the upper may be used Tor elevated
and the lower for subway service.
In a few words, what | propose is a sub
way and elevated connection bet eel all
three bridges, Both services are needed
and both are possible, il there is no objection
TO the elevated structure in Delaney street.
am not, however, pinning my entire faith
in the solution of the bridge problem on
these plans. II another elevated structure
Is barred by public opinion the subways
can give the relief eventually, but | am in
n hurry and in connecting the bridges the
elevated structure is the quicker

interest will be ready to double deck the

ARM AND NECK SWOLLEN.
Humphreys SO Far Alarmed That He Has
n VIII Drawn.


Henry W.. Humphreys, u former Newark
policeman, called at the First Criminal
Court in Newark yesterday and asked
Clerk William Yuill to draw up his will.
The clerk expressed surprise at the request,
but Humphreys insisted that he was in
earnest.
Il want you to draw up the instrument
at once" he said. Il am not exactly
afraid of what might happen, but l want
to be on the safe side
Humphreys then displayed n bandaged
right hand and called Yuills attention
.. the swollen condition OF his arm and
neck. He then explained that he had been
bitten by a bulldog, the property of his
friend Policeman Henry +. Mueller. at
the latter's home, 1873 Colt street, lrvington,
May S last, and hat while he had taken
all possible precautions against serious
consequences, the appearance of the SWELL
ing on his arm and neck caused him to fear
that hydrophobia might develop.
The dog had been friendly with Hum
phreys nearly six years, but on this cca-
sion he reached his hand through the gate
without speaking to the animal, The dog
inflicted wounds in HumphTeys's hand and
arm in three places. Two lays afterward
H~umphreys's arm gave HIM so much pam
from the swelling that he went to the CITY
Hospital for treatme Mt. Al the institution
the p physicians found an ugly wound te-
tween the thumb and index finger more
than an inch deep, and they extracted a
clot of black blood. Humphreys had his
wounds dressed and went home. The
pain comes on him for a time and then ceases
and he continues to visit the hospital every
day. On Monday his hand was swollen
to twice its normal size. 1t was only yes
terday the pain in his arm and neck devel-
oped.
Clerk Yuill drew up the will and it was
Witnessed by Sergeant Charles McGovern
and Policeman Mueller.

said Magistrate Cornell in the West Side
court yesterday, al he released John j.
Evans Of % West Tooth street, the auto
mobile driver who ran down John w. Mack
of 3l5 West Twenty-eighth street.
The accident happened in front Of Big
Bill Devery's saloon at Twenty-eighth
street and Eighth avenue on Wednesday
night. Evans was backing his car along
the curb when he an down Mack. The
latter received a cut on the head that re-
quired several stitches. When he picked
himself up he jumped into the car and pro-
ceeded to pummel Evans.
Evans told the court that II was an acci-
dent az he did not see Mack. b latter
said he didn't want to push the case. But
I'd like to have him r~eprirnanded, he added.
There's only one way these automobile
drivers can be reprimanded effectively

TOO MANY DROWNINGs.

The list Of drownings this season has
been much longer than the ordinary
list. Never a day passes but that the
dispatches contain stories of deaths in
the water. Yesterdays Herald told how
twenty-three people had gone TO wateTy
graves in different parts Of the United
States. And most OF these deaths are
entirely unnecessary. The exercise of a
little caution. little ordinary prudence,
would prevent the great majority Of
them.
The victims Of drowning accidents are
confined TO no class. Many of them are.
or were, splendid swimmers. men and
women familiar with the water. sup
posedly acquainted with its dangers.
Theirs is the familiarity that breeds
contempt for. secure I'm their strength
and their knowledge they venture out
far beyond the danger point a sudden
cramp or exhaustion seizes them and
down they so, never to rise in life
other victims are the inexperienced.
who, after an hour on the water in
frail boat, think they know all there is
to know about it. The boat is rocked
by one of the occupants. or some unex-
pected accident happens, and down into
the water the party goes, down to
death
The Herald believes in water sports;
IT believes that every boy and every
girl too. should be taught to swim. To
learn to swim one must go into the
water. but one should also exercise the
greatest prudence. 1t is not necessary
! TO swim a river or to swim far out into
! the sea in order to demonstrate to your
| friends your knowledge Of swimming
and your fearlessness. Such feats par
take more of foolhardiness than Of
courage. Save your swimming strength
until occasion arises TO make it of real
use in saving your own life or the lives
Of others. Every time you go beyond
your depth in the water you take a
chance on. losing your life. This is an
| absolutely sure proposition. Unless
there is need for you to go beyond your
depth don't take the risk.
! When you get into a small boat don't
! think you are a humorist when you
rock it. for you are not a humorist at
all. You are only a rather ordinary
sort of fool, for you are endangering
not only your own life, which is of not
much moment, but the lives of those
who are in the boat with you. Sit still
in the boat and enjoy the scenery, the
fishing or whatever has taken you out
on the water When you go in swim
ming. don't go beyond your depth. or if
you do go beyond your depth, don't try
to swim across the river, the lake or far
out into the ocean.

and in all of them he made friends.
Those who came TO know him as he was
found that he was not a devil at all,
but genial. kindly gentleman who
took a keen interest in life and in his
work, who liked to have his friends
about him, whJ coul1 tell a good story
well and enjoy hearing one. But the
stage was his work and his life. He was
never so happy as when behind the
footlights.
In his later years Mr. Morrison was
practically stone deaf. He never heard
a word that was spoken by the COM
pany about him on the stage. and those
that knew of his infrmity often Won
dered how he managed to catch his
cue. for he never missed one The Sc
cret lay in his thorough knowledge of
the part and the play. When he was
not in a position to read the lips of the
actors he could Judge by the elapsed
time the moment he should begin his
next speech.
Morrison has passed forever now
from LIES stage. but there viii be
many TO miss him and mourn his loss.
His passing deprives the theatrical pro-
fession of one of it's unique characters.

The "reformers' gave US the rain. No
body saw such a rain as this during the
Morris administration. Therefore the
credit must belong 20 the Americans"
They won't be a bit backward about
claiming IT, either. They will tell us
during the fall campaign that If it had
not been for the American party's
splendid conduct Of municipal affairs,
with special reference to the water
supply. every lawn in Salt Lake would
have died and lots Of people would have
had to get along for a day at a time
without drink-of water. They can
get drink Of anything intoxicating
they want under this administration

have come in less violent doses but let
us not complain. Wed like some more
