Has Had No Effect on the Criminal
Element, While law-Abiding Citl-

of Protecting Themselves.

New York.-One year has passed
since the Sullivan law" aimed to
prevent the carrying OF concealed
weapons, became a law, and, as was
predicted year ago. the law proved
an utter failure. Crooks and other
criminals continued to carry con-
cealed arms in spite of the law. which
lawabiding citizens who were the pos
SCISSORS of arms for protection and
neglected to get rid of them before
the law became effective.
In other words, the law merely had
the effect of depriving the law-abiding
citizens Of their means of protection.
while the criminals, against whom
they tried to protect themselves, were
left in possession of their weapons
According to the annual report Of
the coroner. just issued, there were
1O6 homicides by shooting during the
last twelve months in Manhattan. only
two less than In 1910. when the high

eighteen of these cases the circum-
stances did not call for an arrest.
while in lightweight cases arrests
were clearly in order. AS matter
Of fact, however. arrests were made
only in thirty-seven of the cases, leav-
ing f1fty-one cases in which no ar
rests were made.
Under the Sullivan law 1t is illegal
for any dealer to sell pistol or other
dangerous weapon prescribed by the
Jaw to any person not in possession Of
a license for owning and carrying
such weapons. In spite of this fact
1t is estimated that during the last
twelve months more than 5000 revolv-
ers were sold by dealers and pawn
brokers in this city in violation of the
law.

Colonel Roosevelt, admitted after his
arrest that he had bought the revolver

Gentlemen" he stated, with ad-
mirable lucidity, murder is where a
man is murderously killed. The
killer in such a case is a murderer.
Now, murder by poison is just as
much murder as murder with a gun,
pistol, or knife. 1t is the simple act
OF numbering that constitutes murder
In the eye of the law. Don't let the
idea of murder and manslaughter con-
found you. Murder is one thing;
manslaughter is quite another. Con-
seQuently, IL there has been a murder,
