- — STREET-CAR SCENES. ‘What a New York Oar-Driver Has to Say About Them. Quelling Disorderly Persons Eo oontrio and Singular Passengers From the New York Star “Life on a night car is not so dull and monotonous as the average person would suppose,” was the driver ona Third avenue street car to The Star revorter last night, who had invited conversation by asking the knight of the lines and brake if he did not “‘prefer driving by day.” The car was a closed one, and as the hour Wi riding on the froat platform, loth to throw away a froshly-lighted cigar. “I have been driving of night now for over five years,” the driver went on, d i that time T have contrived to gee about as much life in Chatham strect and the Bowery as tho averagoe dviver. Whoa, there; can’t you stand up, you old bundle of bones?” he eried, rebuking one of the horses which lost its footing and came within an ace of slipping down on the paving stones at the Pearl street crossing ‘“‘Every- thing is so damp to-night that the horses can scarcely keep their feet,” he continued. “And this is a poor team, too. The company always b their best stock on the day cars. When a horse comes on the line fresh from the country, he is full of fire and pays no attention to the bell. By the time ho has dragged o day-car, com- peting with the Elevated, for a couple of yeras and sustained A THOUSAND FALLS he is as stiff' as an old man; thon he is turned over to the night runs, when the running time is lengthened from ten to thirty minutes, and —" *“Going up?’ ““Not this evening; some other evening; good evening.” The break in the conversation was ocoasioned by two young girls who were standing alongside of the track, at the en- trance to the Bowery, as though wait- ing for a car, and the driver checked the speed of his car as he addressed them. Their slangy answer evidently nettled him, for he struck the off horse a stinging blow with his whip, and muttered something by way of consolation, that the young women were not good enough to ride in his car. “You oceasionally carry some pretty rough passengers, do you not! “‘Rough passengers? Now you are shouting The roughs only travel late at night. 1n the carly evening they are quict becauso they have not be- «come waked from stale beer or vil- lainous whisky, but, later in the night, when they are three sheets in the wind, they are as nastyas rattlesnakes, I carry all these low bummers, ‘rope- in,” runners and ‘heelers’ for the Chatham street and Bowery dives. This trip is too early for thom, but when T leave che city hall on the next Tun, a score of them will climb on board before T get to Grand strect. The majority of these hoodlums live between Thirty-fifth and Fiftieth streets and above Ninetieth street on the east side. They all know me,and, as they never fall to greet me when getting on the car, I can say, without the slightest exhibition of pride, that 1 am on speaking terms with some of the most notorious THIEVES AND CUT-THROATS in New York city. “Do they ever make trouble on the trip?” “Not as a usual thing. They know me and understand that I know them and would give them away to the police if they ever got on my car the second time. At tumes one will come aboard a listle drunker than usual, and pick a -quarrel with some timid-looking re- spectable passenger.” ‘‘What course do you pursue on such occasions?” “‘Well, it is a good deal like a play. 1 recognize the offender as the hea villain, and myself as the avenger. }i stop the car, st up the brake, walk in- side and catch him by the throat. The conductor comes to my assistance, and we railroad the offender out of the car quicker than a tonguey woman could say Jack Robinson, T never warn them of what I am about, for that might give them a chance to draw a knife, T fire them out first and lec- ture them after the car starts on. About once a month one of this class, who is a stranger on the line, will try to go for a watch or a pocket-book, If either the conductor or I detect the thief, we hail a policeman or else give tho rascal to understand that we are on the alert. Tcan always tell when a job is put up to work a car. One fel- low will get on at a street crossing and walk up to the upper end of the car, a second will get on a half- block further along, and the third will be at the next crossing, If more than three are travelling together, two will get on together, say at the second crossing, If the first man thinks there will be any difficulty, or that the prospect is not worth the risk of detec- tion, he will leave the car before they all get on, Once aboard, they gather about th, drunkenest or richest dress- ed passenger, and then if I or the con- ductor decline to interfore, they are both conductor aua driver for a time. The devices by which passengers may be robbed are many. A mock quarrel can be begun, and in the general sham battle which ensues watch chains can e snapped and their owners will not realizo their loss until the thieves have left the car.. One can get on the front platform and one on the rear and keep mysel’ and the conductor chatting while their palls are free to WORK THE PASSENGERS, It was on this score that some years ago placards were put in each car urging that passengors should not en- gage the conductor or driver in con- versation, and spotters were sent out with many cars to see whether we were livin't up to the rule which for- bid conversation. Sometimes a thiof will try to rob the conductor, but as a usual thing the crooks know that the man who works the alarm monitor has to account for every fare registered, and so are honorable enough to let him alone.” ‘Do many women travel on the night cars?”’ “On_this trip, yes; on the following trips?” No, At this season of the year a great num- ber are coming from Coney Island and Rockaway, and they save five cents by riding on the surface line, Next trip the waiter-girls from the concert sa- loons, and the cooks and servant girls, who have been out for ‘a time,’ will climb on at every block. The women on this run are pretty respec- voply of a | juite late, the man of news was | table, but occasionally they have taken too much beer. I hate a drunken man, but I never see a drunken woman without a feeling come over | mo that I would like to ring her neck. | Intemperance s growing among women, t00 They start out by drink ing a glass of beer hefore going to bed |of an evening, and as they cannot | begin to stand as much liquor as & man the first thing they know they are rogular sots. A woman who likes nd’ fosters the desire for it, 8 all claim to being a lady | A few nights agoa woman got on who dressed in black silk. She actually wore diamonds, and a watch and chain that must have cost $300. She was very drunk, but put on a haughty air and assumed A DIGNIFIED BEARING, | speedily She sat in the left-hand upper cor- |ner, and the car was pretty well crowded, At Hester street an old hag got on. She was slouchily dressed, and not quite so drunk as tho other woman. By the side of the nicely od woman there wasubout four inches of unoccupied space, and | the new-comer attempted to wedge herself into it. Such a look of dis- | gust as shoe received T nover saw be- . Beckouing to the conductor, the n with the fine clothes managed “Con—ductor, remove this “a~bond, please!’ “You dare \ Tudy —a vagabond, you " criedthe dilapid: and, befor could interfere, ehe flew in fine-looking woman's face almost seratched her eyes out before we could interfere. As it was, the assaulted woman went into hysterics, had a touch of the jim-jams, fainted and converted the car into « traveling hos- pital before we got to St. Mark’s place, whero she wished t> get off. Very frequently the Bowery girls who travel on the late trips fight. They always carry a heavy whisky glass in their pockets, and a fow of them carry revolvers about the size of good ten cent cigar. One night I saw a Ger- man girl witha dagger. She belonged in the Atlantic garden, and was try- ing to kill a fellow who was making love to a woman from one of the Bowery variety shows. She would have stabbed him, too, had she not dropped her dagger. It was very warm that night, and the front door was open, and I, who had been WATCHING THE FUN, quickly stepped in and put my foot on the kuife, blocking her game. The fellow she wanted to stick turned white as a sheet and hurriedly left the car with his serio-comic companion. The Gierman girl never said a word until the retreating couplo turned into Prince street, and then she said, ad- dressing me, in_a cool and decidedly sweet voice: “‘Oblige me by removing your foot, Mr. Driver.” was 80 taken by surprise that I blubbered out something, and stepped off the dagger, and she thanked me with her eyes, loaned forward, picked up the glitter- inginstrument, wrapped hersilk hand- kerchief about it, and then- allowed handkerchief and all to drop in her lap. She left the car at Sixteenth strect and went up toward the West- minster hotel, and I'll wagera month’s salary to a bottle of soda that she will one day knife the chap whom she car- ries the dagger for ” ~ As the driver concluded his story the car stopped at the stables, and while a fresh team of horses were being put on, the reporter bade him good-night and returned down town by way of the Elevated. vag call me—me drunken thit looking female, and Smugglers Fall Into a Trap. New York Timea. The custom house officers on the lookout for smuggling have recently been closely watching the movements of certain vessels arriving at this port, and at midnight on Wednesday made o *“haul” which to no inconsiderable extent repaid them for their extra ac- tivity, The Havana line steamer the City of Washington an chored off Quarantine, early on Wednesday evening, to remain there over night. Special Officers 8. D. Cook and M. J. Harrigan de- termined to closely watch her, and when darkness set in they 1owed off toward the vessel in asmall boat. For three or four hours or more they were tosséd about on the waves, discovering nothing out of the usual order of things, but just before midnight their patient watch was rewarded. The steamer’s stern light was raised and wayed five times in quick succes- sion. The officers pulled to the steam- er. Harrigan handled the oars and sat with his back to the vessel, whil Cronk forced his slouch hat well down over his face, and further disguised himself by tying a large handkerchicf over tho top of his head and down under his chin, as if to hold his hat on in the wind. When they reached the vessel a voice from overhead said, in half suppressed tones, “pull away and come back in fifteen minutes.” They tollowed instructions without a word, and were soon a Lalf mile or more dis- tant. The fifteen minutes soon elapsed, and then the light was waved again, this time over the vessel's side. The small boat again pulled up beside the steamer. voice overhead was heard again, right; here goes,” and down to the boat fell a bag at the end of a stout rope. The rope was loosened and an- other bag followed, then another and another, till five in_all had beon cast down, “That’s all,” called outthe voice, and the boat hurled toward shore, to turn as soon as darkness hid its track and make way to the hospital ship. That reached the bags were opened and the Havana cigars to the number of 7,900 were discovered, all nicely packed in pretty boxes, The seizure was made known yesterday at the custom house, and an agent of the steamship line was soon on hand for particulars, and was not a httle sur- prised when he learned the story of the interesting way in which the smugglers on his vessel had over reached themsolves and made delivery to government ofticers instead of to coufederates. The cigars have not been appraised yet, but an examina- tion proves that many are of extra brands, The steamer will probably have to pay a heavy fine, there being no evidence as to the identity of the persons who threw the cigars over- board. ——— Ligquid Gold.

Poor Water Supply and Wretched Fire Protection, New York lotter ta Philadelphia Record. The great fire at Vanderbilt's horse car stables on Fourth avenue, and which made a ruin of Morell's ¢ storeage warchouse with its valuable contents, has called attention to the liability of this well-built city to a great down-town fire and the impossi bility of checking the flames. In the great fire of 1835 there was a small supply of water and only a volunteer department; before the contlagration of 1848 Croton water had been intro duced, but the mains were inadequate. In Zhoth cages buildings had to be torn down in order to check the flames. Many of our citizens imagine that with the increase of Croton supply the lower portion of the city is compara- tively safe; but the ct s there is mnot a building below Canal street where the water rises higher than the basement. The new postoffico water supply does not rise higher than this, and yet it is built on the most favorably-situated ground in the lower part of the city. At the torminus of the horse cars, opposite The Herald building, all the water for the horses las to be brought from the Astor, the water hydrants not being avalable, Hencef there were a tire in that vicinity the mains would not supply enough for a single engine. In 1843 these mains were wooden four- inch mains, made by boring logs; now they are only eighteen inches, when they ought to be four feot and a helf. Here is where the trouble lies in the lack of a new aqueduct and source of supply, which should sup- plement the Croton and render the flow of the stream inexhaustible. In nearly all down-town stores water is pumped up to reservoirs on the roof or in the top story, and nearly all the elevators are run by steam, so that the drain upon the Croton is kept up day and night. Suppose thata fire breaks out in any down town building. In point of fact but a single stream can be turned upon it. The conflagration, even in an alleged fire-proof building, must soon gain the mastery unless the watchman or the first engine on the ground can put it out while it still re- quires only a few pails of water poured on the flames. If this cannot be done it must spread until an entire section of the most valuable portion of the city is in flames, and it will not be checked until dynamito is applied by some level-headed official, and a block or two of valuable buildings has been laid even with the stre The talk about fire-proof buildings is all non- sense. Take ‘‘Fort Sherman,” for instance, at the head of Wall street, which will perpetuate fora few years John Sherman’s peculiar ideas and methods in banking. Its massive walls seem stout enough to withstand the pressure of a dozen outside confla- grations, but within it is filled with the most flammable wood- work, which would speedily curl up its iron girders, scale offits red sand- stone battlements and leave it a smok- ing ruin, These are facts which are undeniable, but which no newspaper in this city would dare to publish in the plainness with which they are here set down. Some of these papers have their local habitation in buildings which are professedly fire-proof, but are only iron and stone tinder boxes; others fear to distress politicians by a veritable allusion to the water supply; others, again, fear offending the Fire Department or the financiers who are erecting ten-story towers of peril. The Fire Department is all right —‘‘the finest in the world,” of course —but it is not their fault that the water supply is utterly insufficient for their noeds and that the public is kept in blissful ignorance of the fact. Some day the thoughtless public of New York will learn it to their sorrow and at a cost of several hundred - millions, possibly. Meanwhile their ignorance 1s bliss and saves them some hittle expense in the cost of private watchmen. 1t must not be thought that there is not a fire-proof building in Now York. There is one, exactly one, and no more. The building in question is the Lennox Library structure, at Fifth avenue and Seyenticth street, opposite the Park. 1t is literally founded on a* rock, being built without # cellar, on a ledge of solid gneiss and trap, There was o contract work about. Every- thing was done by day’s work, and the bricklayers, who were all carcfully se- lected, were allowed only to lay so many bricks'a day. The result of Mr. Lennox's conscicntious care is mot only one of the handsomest buildings m the city (its outside walls are of fine white marble), but the only one which s absolutely fire-proof. = Within its secure walls are already placed a choice collection of statuary and paintings (including “Milton Dictating Paradise Lost to his Daughters”), and the libraries are vlacing and catalogu- ing tho finest library in America. 'Vhe building is better worth a visit than any other in or about Central park, Let us hope that when comvleted it will be thrown open to the public at an hour when its treasures can be made use of by the general public, especially our workaday young men and women. The Astor library and most of the others are closed during the only hours in which working peo- ple can visit them.
