Grade Crossings Taboo.

From the Philadelphia Inquirer.
In view of the intention of the city
to see that all railway crossings in
its limits are abolished, the decision
Of the supreme court of Pennsylvania
In notable case is important. Through
the elevation Of the Reading tracks a
shipper lost a valuable switch connec-
ton for his yard and brought suit for
damages on the ground that his rights
we're prescriptive. Apparently this was
made a test case. for there must have
been many similar disturbances to
business. Although this might seem a
case where the damage to an individ-
uars business of long standing was a
great wrong, the supreme court holds
that so great is the necessity Of the
public Improvement SO important Is it
to protect tho lives of the people, that
individual interests must give way.
Damages are refused: but It is init
mated by the court that the company
should assist the plaintiff in getting
new connections. which probably will
be done. However. the important point
is settled that in clevating railways

nense is not to be enlarged by food

The Becker Decision.

The reversal by the New York court
Of appeals Of the verdict OF guilty rem
dered in the case of Police Lieut..
Becker of New York city is accom-
panied by the affirmation of the con-
victions in the cases Of the four young
men who were accused OF actually TAX
ing the life of Herman Rosenthal Thus
the higher court calls for a new trial
for the man who was charged with the
Initiating influence. but allows to stand
the verdicts which condemned to the
electric chair the direct assassins OF
the gambler who had turned states
evidence and was on the point Of max
ing revelations OF corruption to the
district attorney. A new trial Is ordered
for Becker. but there Is some doubt
whether 1t will ever be held. The latest
decision Is so positive in it's condemna-
ton OF the first trial that 1t may be do
cided to abandon the case. as promising
small prospect Of conviction.
Conspiracy Is one of the most dim
cult Of crimes to prove tn court. In
Becker's case the evidence against him
was largely circumstantial but mainly
turned upon the statements Of more or
less discsedtted witnesses. There was.
Of course, no question whatever as TO
the fact that RoSenthal was killed ana
that his life was taken by a squad Of
men who deliberately went after him.
Certain Of the conditions later dis
closed indicated police complacence II
not conniyance. and there were reasons
to think that Becker. with whom
Rosenthal had had previous connec-
lions. WAS willing that the gambler
should be put away. Yet upon q full
scrutiny Of the trial the upper court
nnds no convicting evidence that he
was aware Of the plot OF the gunner
70 kill Rosenthal or that he In any way
inspired the crime.
In tho light of this latest decision it
seems possible that the actual slayers
/ will be executed. But it is = question
whether their final punishment will
serve materially to lessen lawlessness
