THE MGRATH BILL.
The Tenement House Department Pro.
tests Against Its Approval.

To THE EDITOR OF THE SUS--Sir; Those
who believe that the Tenement House de-
partment should be upheld in Its efforts
to compel unwilling house owners to keep
their tenements in habitable condition
should urge Governor Glynn to veto the
McC;rath bill. which would allow owners
to escape penalties even II their offence
were proved and shown to be without
excuse.
This bill proposes to substitute for the
definite penalties set forth In the tenc-
ment house law "A nominal penalty or no
penalty at the option of the Civil Justice
before whom the case is tried. These
Justices have crowded calendars in many
courts They cannot possibly give each
case the careful consideration which the
Tenement House Department now gives.
They cannot Judge of the gravity of the
offence The bill would place in the hands
of these officials who have no r.sponsl-
bility for the enforcement OF the tene-
ment house law the determination of
penalties TO be paid by delinquents.
A more dangerous attack upon the
tenement house law has not been pro-
jected In recent years. If 1t becomes
law II will seriously hamper the work of
the department..
Amy citizen who wants to be fair cannot
complain that he has been oppressed un-
der the law as 1t stands. The department
does not insist upon penalties except in
cases where violations have been allowed
to go uncorrected for long periods. The
department receives hundreds of COM
plants daily. Its power to correct the
bad conditions shown in these complaints
will be much reduced if the McGrath bill
becomes law.
The bill was introduced just three
weeks before the adjournment of the
Legislature. No hearing was given on
II. No evidence of any public demand for
the bill was produced,
Every citizen who wants to see the
tenement law made effective in the dis.
tricts whore II is most needed should
urge the Governor to veto the bin.

End OF the MeIlen Prosecute n.

The abandonment Of the mansla ugh.
ter indictment found against CHARLES
s. MELLEN, ex-president Of the New
Haven Railroad. because Of the fatal
accident to the Springfield express
ut Westport last year, marks the end
Of proceeding which never should
have been begun. The charges We're
based on certain bad conditions alleged
to exist In the rolling stock and road
bed Of the road. together with some inl-
perfection Of system or discipline.
1t Is not necessary to assume that
conditions Of any sort were perfect in
order to hold the highest officers Of the
road not guilty In respect to the mishap
The obvious point Is that no immediate
connection could be shown between
any act or order Of Mr.. MELLEN or any
established policy represented by him
and the actual occurrence at West
port. The responsibility, II any, 50
far as he was concerned, was Of that
attenuated kind which involves neither
moral Obliquity nor criminal intent.
The physical conditions Of the road
were due to general causes over which
even Mr.. MELLEN had very limited con-
troll. and the element Of human error
seems to have been at least as much
due to union interference as to any
fault Of management.
The indictment was due mainly to
I,A h,.,e 81 o., a.
which always goes up on such occa sions,
and Of course. nowadays, the victim
must be some one higher up" If
the prosecution had succeeded in this
case it would have had the pernicious
effect Of driving men Of brains ont of
railroad management or would have led
them to hide behind dummies.

A sUFFRA0ETTE,s HUSBAND.
Baskine IN Reflected Glory. He Feels
Himself Slowly Growing Heroic.

To THE EprToR or THE SuN-Sfr: l
am the husband Of a suffragette. Some
people might feel disturbed by the ex-
periences which have to go through be-
cause Of this fact, but I am happy de-
spite them. I am employed In q bank
where there are between forty and Atty
clerks, and perhaps l am one OF those I'M
fortunate people whom everybody knows
by his first name, SO that when Jims vile
makes a speech anywhere on the rights
Of woman the next day remarks are made
about 1t to me as I sit at my desk.
My wife made an address noticed in tho
morning papers urging everybody 10 DO
the Christmas shopping between election
day and Thanksgiving. DO l received
every day assurances from my fellow
clerks that they were leaving carly In the
afternoon TO do their Christmas shopping
They seemed to think that l was per-
sonaiiy interested in the fact that they
were doing their Christmas shopping ac-
cording to my wife's schedule.
on another occasion Mrs. Smith made a
spe. ch calling upon the members OF the
Woman's Suffrage party 10 ask their hus-
bands and brothers TO abstain from to-
bacco for one month and to subscribe the
money they saved to the woman's suf-
fray e movement. She calculated that $780,
900 or more woubl he raised Cor the cause
OF course she persuaded me TO give up
tobacco. and the interest my fellow clerks
took In my self-denial during that month
was malicious and trying. l do not doubt
that | had a trunk full OF cigars offered
10 me for daily consumption. but no one
rendered me smoke when the month
was up.
on another occasion Mrs. Smith made q
speech In Wall street about the down.
trodden working girl while I stood by.
very proud OF her. But l must say that
! felt great contempt for my fellow
men when they greeted with mockery re-
marks of hers which should have called
stance, when she said, DO YOU men ever
In mis- city who are unable to earn enough
IN the stores 20 Keep even respectable
body and soul together" the crowd with
unanimous shout called out. "Hooray,
hooray!' She exclaimed, Now, really,
you don't mean that. II Is impossible
for you to hold such sentiments" And
again the crowd shouted "Hoorayl"
These are some of the things which the
husband OF a suffragette must be ready
to face. but l feel that IL is making me
slowly, very slowly, into man OF heroic
mould. Perhaps after a few years II Mrs.
Smith should become an American sinili-
tude OF Mrs. Pankhurst l might he able TO
live up to the glory OF her fame.
So let no man draw back from the hap
piness Of being the husband OF suffra-
gette. For though in days past the path
OF glory might lead TO the grave. nova
days the path of glory leads to the news

Stran Cling Scientific Research.

Monday was n bad day for medl-
cal science and humanity got n deplor-
able setback. In New Jersey Governor
FIELDER took advantage Of a technical
ity to bar the Rockefeller Institute
from the State. In New York all the
modern maglcians. all the enemies Of
light. shouted their foolish and wicked
platitudes at Governor GLYNN and by a
stimulation Of numerical force attempted
TO put the people Of the State In the
position Of favoring Quackery. The ef.
feet Of the move may not be final, but
in itself 1t was painful exhibition Of
medieval prejudice and ignorance.
In New Jersey the disaster Is r..
remediable, at least for the present.
The Governors veto Of bill passed
unanimously by both houses Of the Leg
islature effectually shuts out the re-
search department for the study Of
animal diseases which the Rockefeller
Institute proposed to establish with the
100000 recently contributed by Mr..
ROCKErELIER for the purpose. The bill
took the form Of an amendment to the
act Incorporating the Society for Pre-
venti0n Of Cruelty to Animals, and Its
effect was simply to free the research
laboratory from vexatious supervision.
The bill was, Of course, In general
terins and Mr.. FIELpER killed 1t be-
cause he thought others than the Rock
efeller scientists might take advantage
Of It to commit cruelties. Surely this
was makinga long stretch Of magma
ton to find grounds for disastrously
anti-social policy.
The study Of animal diseases has
lately. doomed up before scientific men
in huge proportions. The relations be-
tween such maladies and those from
which mankind suffers though recog-
nized are little understood. 1t is ex-
pected that their study may be Il great
boon to humanity. This Is one phase
Of the work. But there Is besides an
economic aspect. The annual loss
nothing short of stupendous. Recent
official reports put 1t up to $lOOWO.OOO
n year for cattle and about $75,OOO.OOO
each for hogs and sheep.
There is crying need for an imme-
date and vigorous attack on this great
evil. One would have supposed that
New Jersey would have felt hOnored in
aiding so promising scientific cam
paign. But the prOmptlngs Of narrow
fanaticism have again prevailed over
science and progress and the institute
must either seek hospitality elsewhere
men are educated up to modern stand
ards.

Passing Of the Funeral Train through
Ohio Described by All OnlOOker.

To THE EDITOR OF THE SuN-Sir: The
orty ninth anniversary of the assassination
Of Abraham Lincoln on April II. 1865.
brings 10 my mind the day the people OF
my native village. New London, Ohio,
learned that President Lincoln had been
shot. Though but years old at the
time ! shall never forget the excitement
that followed the announcement Later We
awoke one morning to hear that the body
OF the martyred President had passed
through New London In the night, the
route being the Cleveland. Columbus and
Cincinnati Railway. the Bee Line then,
but now n part of the Big Four. As
those were the days when l went to bed at
shutdown ! did not witness the impressive
event. y few months ago. in response 10
an inquiry. | received from an old friend
the following description OF the Lincoln
funeral train:
remember distinctly the passing OF the
train through New London tina, carried the
body Of Abraham Lincoln on its way from
the East to Springfield, H.. for burial. I
was at that time IL years old. The train
was due In New London about midnight,
but It was about 1880 o'clock when It ar
rived. preceded BY pilot locomotive and
one ear 10 SEQ that the track was unob-
structed. With number Of boy compan-
ions waited around the depot to see the
train, when II arrived Il was raining very
hard. The train hated about I'VE minutes,
y guard stood at the door OF the car tn lat
contained the casket and allowed no one to
climb upon the car steps ! remember how
~" train OF six seven coaches looked
with the drapery of black crepe cloth and
tho locomotive with its mourning drapery
and heroic picture Of Lincoln resting on the
pilot beam ana lighted 10 show Ma familiar
features from long distance ahead. Those
were trouhlous times, and never since have
l witnessed depth OF sorrow In the taking
of OF a great American that compared with
the sorrow over the death OF Abraham
Lincoln.
