NEW YORK, May 22.-The fact that a
ten-year-old boy was allowed to wave a
green lantern, giving the signal for a

"a IL" train In which hfty persons We're
hurt at Bath Beach. The police report
says:
The accident was caused by the fiag-
man. Edward Lowenthal, allowing Ed
ward Young. a ten-ycar-oli. 20 swing a

The triumph OF the enforcement
of the law against Migrants in this
city by efficient peace officers would
be practically complete, but for the
criminal property owners who decoy,
harbor and wet nurse Migrants in de-
fiance of the law and the courts.
81 say to you without qualification
that it will profit social order ano
purity more in this city to prosecute
and punish the criminal property
owners in conspiracy with Migrants
than it will to convert the burglars
and hang the murderers and rapists.

want to say to the peace officers who
have stood by me and are now stand
ing by me to enforce the law against
Migrants, that you will find formal
notice with the sheriff and chlet CT
police, to be served on the wet
nurses of Migrants in this city. You
know or can ascertain by reasonable
diligence the names of every pro-
perty owner of this city who is in
conspiracy with the Migrants to
override the law, and to the enforce
ment of the law, and to throttle you
in your efforts to do your duty as
public officers, and I want you to
copy the form of notice filed with
the sheriff and with the chief Of po-
lice. and serve it on every one OF
them | want you then, to keep your
eyes and ears open, get up the evil
denee and put it before the grand
Jury. and we will test the question
whether there is sufficient virtue and
power in the courts and the law TO
overthrow the Migrants and their
wet nurses.
81 want you to file a copy of the
notices which you serve with the OF
hcers named and I trust the public
press of this city, which IS the clean
est of any city in the world, and
which in my opinion, is doing as
much for the moral cleansing OF the
city as the pulpit will send their re-
