WHAT CONSTITUTES AN
OVERCROWDED CAR?
Public Utilities Commission Is Trying
to Answer. So as to Fix
Standard.

What constitutes an overcrowded
street car?
This puzzling question has been put
to the Public Utilities Commiss ion
by the Washington and Old Dominion
Railway Company. The commission is
trying to make up its mind, so that Il
standard may be established.
In a number of instances" the COM
mission recently informed the rail-
way. 'as many as twenty-seven. twen-
ty-eight, and thirty-three passengers
in excess of the seating capacity were
observed on cars having seating
capacity of forty-four. Such condI-
tions appear to be conducive not only
to Inconvenience and discomfort. but
actual danger as well. particularly as
passengers are sometimes found riding
on the steps"
The railway company explained that
while some of the cars during rush
hours are overcrowded on leaving
Thirty-sixth and II streets, many OF
the passengers are discharged not far
beyond the Aqueduct Bridge.
The commission, upon the recon-
menda tion OF Corporation Counsel Con-
rad II. Syme, has decided that the
local railway companies cannot be
compelled to receive the siX-for-a-
quarter tickets issued by the Metro
politan Coach Company before the dis
continuance of its Sixteenth street her
die line.

Truck-making After the War.

The present sees the motor truck industry max
ing heavy profits; the future is uncertain to high
degree. Expanded plants and more highly speed
cd methods will us all with much greater ca
pacity than before the war. and there has always
been more than enough capacity for the market
demands. 1t remains to be seen what can be
done to take care of this increased output There
is the possibility that it will lead to price cut
ting. On the other hand, strong business re-
vval would absorb largely increased production
and such revival seems to me not at all unlikely
The truck business has enjoyed the fruits
OF a real business boom. 1t came into being too
late for the last one in 1000
The war is demonstrating the capability OF
the truck in wonderful way. This will, of
course, help to introduce it into new fields when
peace comes. AT the time American trucks
are receiving some excellent advertising and get
ting foothold in foreign markets. But it must
be remembered that the end of the war will see
a vast number of secondhand trucks available 1t
remains to be just what part these will play,
and whether they will be resold in this country
hardly think they will. Finally, it is a reason
able expectation that the price of horses and of
horse feed will be high hereafter. This will great
ly help the of the truck, where compcti-
ton with horses is matter of Importance These
are only some OF the many factors to be con-
sidered in attempting to forecast the future.-Engi-
neering Magazine.

The WAYS of the Police.

A Judge OF a New York police court recently
denounced a police system which permitted the
employment OF person addicted to the use Of
drugs for the purpose OF cntrappng those en-
gagged in such traffic The court held that it
must condemn and scathingy disapprove of the
efforts OF any police officer who, "in fcrretng out
crime, the pursuit OF drug fiends, drags down
TO the depths OF the gutter and makes drug
user of boy OF the age of u years. and who,
using that boy OF such tender years, is conscious
of the fact he is victim of the drug. 1t is one
OF the most horrible cases this court has had to
deal with"
1t is difficult to escape the logic of such stu
alton, which is brought home with no little force
to Washington. 1t is we'll known, if not to the
general public, that methods similar to those
exposed in the decision of the New York justice
have been frequently attempted in this city and
have failed solely because too many prominent
people have been involved In Washington,
obscure and helpless people have been prosecuted
and held in subjecton, while those of higher
station in life have been permitted to so free of
moeStaton.
The United States Attorney for the District
OF Columbia is at present engaged in the task
OF investigating the Washington police force and
pending that inquiry there will be silence on the
part of many citizens who have information to
npart that would be valuable and important were
II available under proper conditions. 1t is no
secret that the Department OF Justice has in re-
cent months engaged the services of a large num-
Der OF stool pigeons in an effort to enforce
the laws of the District OF Columbia, and this
circumstance brings the more forcbly to mind
the decision OF the New York Justice Such ac-
t'ity the part of the Federal government for
the purpose OF suppressng violation OF the laws
against vice in this jurisdiction is OF course,
the reverse OF complimentary to the police ad-
rninistration of the District of Columbia but from
that standpoint it is not to be ignored The
| nitcd States Department OF Justice has deemed
Il necessary TO adopt the most extraordinary
methods to cnsnare violators of the laws Of the
District OF Columbia that have ever been applied
TO the residents OF the Capital Reputable citizens
have been employed to spy upon the conduct OF
their former companions to such an extent that
in Washington situation has been reached in
which every man suspects his neighbor of a de
sign TO nvelgle him into game of penny ante"
tor the purpose of police raid.
The Washington Herald is in nossession Of
information concerning the operation OF the
nltcd States Department of Justice and the po-
lice department OF the District OF Columbia that !
II the public interest demands will make inter

How Some Prudent Americans Sc
cured Themselves.

Many have been the reports since the
war in Europe began of the demoraliza-
tion of the foreign exchange market, and
there was in August and September of
last year practically an embargo upon
exchange, since there was little OF it.
and what there was could only he bought
upon something like ShyIock terms
l have often been reminded. as | have
road or heard of the difficulties in the
foreign exchange market, of converse
ton which / had in the summer Of 1900
with the late Frederick y. Tappan. who
at that time was chairman Of the New
York Clearing House Association.
Il think it was in August" said Mr.
Tappan, that ! was summoned from
my country place in the Berkshires to
New York, and 1 recall vividly my rail-
road ride in response TO that summons.
for the train went through the most
friShtful thunderstorm | ever expert

found there was great anxiety. The re-
port prevailed that Bryan was almost
certain to be elected President. and with
him 4 Congress which would enact free
silver legislation. This anxiety threat
duty to secure at least S2J,C0OOo0 in gold
with which to build up a bulwark against
panic.
As / went about among the banks and
came in contact with the dealers of for
ciGn exchange, found that n good many
persons had been buying exchange on
London. They were doing this because
they were apprehensive that a victory
by Bryan might Put the country upon
oil,
they were able to secure gold and de-
post it to their credit in the London
banks and thereby protect themselves
This scare did not last long and
there was no real panic, but for day
or two l wondered whether we were
not to repeat the experience of 1896.
In August of that year. all of the
indications pointed to the election OF
Bryan ind the free-silver Congress
You would be amazed If l were to tell
you the names or to give you an idea
of the number of persons who at that
time bought exchange on London. The
movement reached large dimensions,
so great, in fact. as to cause an ap-
probation in the price of exchange.
AS result. there accumulated in Lon
don banks several millions of deposits
which stood in the name of Americans
or next friends. and for which de-
manu- III Soiu couiu De Hltue anu
could be met. This was done so that
these persons could insure themselves
against depreciation in property val
ues in case free silver We're established
in the United States.
II think Samuel J. Tilden set the
example nearly twenty years earlier,
for at the time when the so-called
Bland silver-dollar law was passed.
Tilden. who had just failed of
the Presidency, converted a consider
able part of his wealth into exchange
on London. doing that because he was
persuaded that the effect of the Bland
law would be greatly to depreciate
property values of all kinds"

Georgia Not Alone RESPONSIBLE.

Let us be honest with another and put all
extraneous considerations aside The very great
majority OF the people of Georgia unalter-
ably convinced that Leo Frank guilty of a
most diabolical crime richly meriting the ex-
treme penalty imposed by the law. He tried
and convicted and as a result OF a most tre
mendous and unsparing effort to his life
for what purpose is not apparent unless it was
the hope and expectation that he could in the end
prove his innoccncc-a governor OF the State COM
muted his sentence from death to life imprison-
ment. That governor, driven from Georgia, his
life threatened, is his way to Alaska.
The truth is that-as circumstances have.
proved-Leo Franks life was not to be spared
He doomed by the very effort of his friends
TO him. Their unremitting endcavors, and
most OF all, their large expenditures of money
aroused spirit of resentment and hatred that
bred distrust OF their governors action in
committing the sentence. The shadow of doubt
of Leo Franks guilt obscurcd by what may
well be termed the brazcn efforts at all hazards
to him from death at the hands of the law.
The State of Georgia stands outraged and dis
graced, but it must not be forgotten that, if no
great national clamor had been manufactured, if
the State had been permitted to administer its
own law it it applicable Leo Frank would
have gone to a death prepared by agents OF the
law. Let some of the people outside the State

making false statements of value to OBJ
