VAGR1NCY INCREASING.
Charities Commissioner Blames Mag
istrates- Morgue Not Refuge.

Robert W. Hebberd Commissioner of Charities,
has written a letter to Acting Mayor MCGOWAN
denying widely circulated reports that homeless
men, women and children had to be sheltered at
the City Morgue on the night of August 26. when
there was violent storm In making this denial,
Mr.. Hebbard declared that the vagrancy laws
practically were nuIified by of the city
magistrates. thereby causing situation affecting
the homeless which amount of charity or num-
Der of municipal lodging houses could overcome
A cornpa rativeIy small number of but no
women. Commissioner Hebberd says. were housed
in a chapel adjoining the morgue on the nignt OF
August 25 This large room entirely discon-
nected from the rooms devoted to the actual care
of the dead, appears to have been the only means
open for caring for the men in the sudden emer-
gency and was certainly far more humane than
II would have been to have lett them to the mercy
of the storm"
Pending the completion of the new lodging house
about December 1. which will have more than
double the capacity of the present the depart
ment hopes to have temporary arrangements
made which would prevent the recurrence of sucn
an emergency. Mr.. Hebberds letter referring TO
this matter says:
In this connection it is to be remembered, how
ever that the municipal lodging house is intended
only for the care of persons temporarily without
shelter. 1t is not intended for the continued care
of vagrant persons, who shouid, to the conraIy'
receive the attention of the police and the nagis-
cordanee with the provisions of law Were this
policy carefully pursued do not believe that tne
municipal lodging house would nave any ulIlcultS
at this time in caring for those who are proper
charges upon it's bounty.
| have no present means Of knowing how many
homeless people there in the city, but have no
doubt but that the number is abnormally large foT
this time of the year. There of course, at all
times in New York thousands of persons on the
verge of homelessness. and in a time OF hnahcIaI
depression many casual workers and others who.
from various are least desirable as en-
ployes readily fall into this class.
In my opinion, the practical notification OF the
vagrancy laws. by some of the city magistrates
particularly. has had much to do with the ap-
parent growth OF vagrancy in. the city This Is q
serious matter. because If such laws lack preper
enforcement-hv which I mean sending vagranls IS
to the workhouse-they have to be cared for in
other ways that simply cause them to increase to
the point of becoming menace TO the good ofdeI
of the community Once allow the idea to spread
abroad that vagrants from out of the CITY can CON
the enforced discipline of the workhouse to con
front them and shall have more than can pe
