INCENsED OVER WoMAN's DEATH
Crew Refused to Move Train for Dy-
ing Woman

OYSTER BAY, N. Y, August 27-The
action of crew of Long Island train
which was standing at the depot here Sun
day night in refusing to pull up to allow a
carriage containing a dying woman to pass,
has lncensed the villagers and a complaint
will be filed with the railroad officers. The
carriage was kept waiting for half an hour
and when the train finally pulled out and
left the crossing free the woman was dead.
She was Mrs. Amelia Burrell, widow,
ffty-nine years old and lived in West S7th
street, New York She had been visiting
Mrs. Thomas Garvin on Hamilton avenue
and yesterday morning with a number of
others went by launch to a picnic grove
called Sycamore Camp, short distance
from the Presidents home
On the way home last night Mrs. Burrell
was taken suddenly Ill, and when the
she was put into carriage. The only road
leading from the dock to the village crosses
the Long Island railroad. The S:O4 pm
train was waiting at the depot, blocking
the roadway, and the carriage could not
pass. The woman became rapidly worse
and every effort was made to induce the
conductor and engineer to move or split
the train to let the wagon pass
They refused, saying that they could not
move the train without order. A physician
was sent for, but by the time he arrived
the train had pulled out.
In the meantime the woman had died
When the body had reached the house,
Coroner Townsend was sent for, but he had
left town and did not return until this
morning.
Heart failure was the cause of the wom-
ans death, and, according to the physi-
clan, prompt medical attention might have
saved her life.

DUBLIN's POLICE SYSTEM.
Recent Comparisons Instructive, Not
to Say Startling.

Special Cablegram to The Star.
DUBLIN, August PA return has been
issued to the members Of the Dublin cor
poration by Edmund w. Eyre, city treas
urer. regarding the comparative cost of the
policing of Dublin and the various other
cities OF England and Wales. The return
Is most instructive, not to say startling.

tically pays double the average cost Of
policing any of the English cities. In Dub
lin the police are special department.
controlled by q commissioner, constituted
under a special act of parliament by which
provision is made for taxing the citizens
for their maintenance at the rate Of Sd.
in the pound on the valuation OF the city.
The result has proved that, though crime
Is diminishing In Dublin notwithstanding
its growing population, the cost Of policing
has grown with the increase in the yalua-
ton of the city, until the financial inn
position on the city has become monstrous.
For instance the valuation of the metro
politan area of Dublin in 1850 was 645,OOO
pounds; the valuation for the year 1905
Of was 1,345, ,00O pounds. The result Of this
increase in the valuation of the city has
been that the cost of the police in Dublin
has grown up from 1000 pounds in 1850
to 160,950 pounds in 19O5-06. The strength
of the force practically remains the same.
in 19O5-O6 it was 1194. The cost of main
tanning the police force was. therefore, in
creased-in f1fty-five years-from 1850
pounds to 100. $50 pounds. Dublin Is gen.
orally known as one Of the most peaceable
cities in the three kingdoms. In 1870 the
number of indictable offenses was 5,1s6: in
19O5-O6 the number fell to 1926: The num-
Der Of summary convictions in 1870 was
47,31O and this showed great falling off
in 19O5-O6. the number being 2996O.
