The shooting of James McCoy in the back of the head by County Detective McLellan was startling enough; the extenuation of it by Jerome is most amazing. “has no power that the ordinary citizen does not pos- sess." Yet because he was assisting a policeman to apprehend a man not a fugitive from justice the de- tective “was warranted in shooting.” “It justified him in using all the force necessary, or apparently neces- sary, even to killing a man, to effect an arrest.” And Mr. Jerome adds that his detective only did what he Would have done himself in the same case! This is not the se of a Tombstone or Dead- wood town marshal for a shot at “Wild Bill;" it is the excuse of a high judicial officer in New York. It makes a detective's revolver drawn In the excitement of the moment judge, jury and court of last resort in determining a man's guilt or innocence. Wherein It fs superior to the rough-and-ready methods of Judge Lynch is not apparent. excl STRAIGHT TALK. The remarkalile interview given by Mr. W. 8. Dev- ery to The Evening World yesterday has been supple- mented and completed by some further remarks in the Morning World to-day in which the ex-chief, or, as he insists, the real chief, “says things.” Serene in the consciousness of his independence, Mr. Devery not only rules Croker out of Tammany, but out of the United States, classing him with W. W. Astor, pays his respects to the mighty triumvirate of Murphy, McMahon and Haffen with an irony worthy of his best days in Mulberry street, incidentally calls attention to the “contractors' ring” in this elty which is gradually squeezing the small contractors out of ex- istence, volunteers an opinion on Fire Chief Croker us a “star gazer,” on Commissioner Partridge as a “real nice old man,” and on Nixon and Freedman and Dunn and others, and finally winds up with an emphatic declaration that it 1s time for the old gang to get out; they have all made their piles and the younger man ought to be allowed their chance. And the most remarkable thing about It {s that Mr, Devery not only hits the mark every time he speaks, but he voices the sentiments of the rank and file of Tammany more accurately than any one else in the organization has dared to do. His remarks will command the careful perusal of a wide circle of readers. CAUSE AND EFFECT, Disorder and riot have prevailed in Chicago for the past two days with a promise of more to come.

These evil consequences will last after the strike is settled. They can be removed only by re- moving the causes which have led to so ugly an out- break among the usually peace-loving and good- natured people of Chicago.
