Human Torpedoes.

We congratulate MARSHALL MABEY,
sandhog, and proud Of the profess
sional title. on his recovery from the
shock that even SO rugged a specimen
Of humanity rs a sandhog must feel
after such m experience n Mr..
marcy had last Saturday. On that
day he and two other men working
ut the head OF the subway tunnel
under the East River were caught In
a blowout Of compressed air. shot
through q hole In the river bottom,
through fifteen feet Of water and
some twenty or twenty-five feet into
the air. A fourth man who was with
them in the shield was able to save
himself by cliuging TO an iron ring.
The men in the tube back of Its Dor.
Ing head ran to safety. The two who
were projected through the mud and
water with Mr.. MAREY lost their lives.
The survivor will have n story TO tell
us long as he lives; but men to whom
such perils are the stuff OF daily life
are not as much given to story telling
in the capitalized first person as some
others who have less to build on.
In due time the bore will be COM
pleted. the tracks laid through II, and
trains will weaye their new strand
into the city's life. Multitudes will
pass through the tube. complaining
over momentarily >cyntious delays
ind the minor discomforts of urban
passenger transportation. The sand.
hogs who made the hole accept their
difficulties and dangers rs all In the
days work. Plain men of muscle and
courage. they are no candidates for
hero medals. But they do, In the
most eloquent way. Of practice not
precept, stimulate their fellows TO an
excellent stoicism.

Another Rear End Collision.

The first questions that will he
asked with regard to the rear end
collision near Milford on the New
Haven Railroad yesterday will be
concerned with the adequacy OF the
signal system. Was this originally
sufficient to safeguard the line3 Was
II rendered defective by accident?
BY what failure did 1t permit the
following train to approach at full
speed so near the stalled coaches that
the fagman was not able to go back
to q point where his warning would
be effective:
Flagman. engineer and fireman are
dead. The brakes. II applied ut all,
were put on too late. Did the engl-
neer disregard the signals that should
have stopped him, or brought him to
low speed? Was the flagman laegard
IN his dutyl If the signal system
Is adequate, the explanation OF the
wreck can be found only in man fail
IRE. that collapse against which no
machine. no matter how Ingenious. can
protect; and whether the fault lies
with the signals or a man, there can
be no excuse for a zeal end collision.

Senator Browns Proposals.

The Brown bills for the relief Of
this city are the result Of the inquiry
made by a legislative committee this
winter into its financial affairs. and
are designed TO remedy some Of the
more obvious injustices under which
the city treasury labors. The Comp
troller Endorses the proposed advance
ment Of the rates for the payment Of
taxes, by which interest charges on
revenue bonds would be materially
reduced. 4 step toward this was
made some years ago. when two dates
for tax payments were fixed. instead
Of one, a reform that has worked
satisfactorily.
The other proposals look generally
to a fairer distribution of moneys be-
tween the State and the city, a more
equitable division OF the expenses Of
the Public Service Commission. and
a much needed extension Of the pow
ers Of the Board of Estimate over
city and county salaries. These CON
SESSIONS do not represent all that the
municipality deserves, but they may
mark a gratifying change In the policy
that for years has guided the Legis-
lature. a policy for which Mr.. ADLER.
The leader IN the Assembly. spoke
when he accused New York of 'cry
babying around" because II has be.
come restless under the enactments
that tax 1t for highway Improvement
while denying 1t their benefits.
New York will be suspicious Of the
Brown bills. and will examine them
with care for jokers; but 1t Will be
hopeful that they mean what they
seem to mean. the beginning Of IA
period Of fair treatment Of half the
population by the other half.

CHRISTIAN REFERENDUM.
Belief stated In the Power Of the
People 10 Prevent War.

TO 1Ilr InrroF or THr SvE-Sir: The
people Of Christcudom accept the au-
,hnrity o' Chr.st's p-ccept, "l.ove your
relghbor." The Governments Of the
states Of Chr,s,eudum do not accept IL.
The result; il VAR.
The Governments have different theo-
ries as to the source of governing power
some think II comes from the people
va; none Of these permits the people to
s,y icca''y and directly whether or not
they want war.
Other Governments hold that their
rover comes from God. Ttles. Govern
mcn,s do not accept the authority of the
pre- cpt. notwiths'anding that theory.
