IF DE LACY, WHY NOT OTHERS¢ ‘The capitulation of Peter De Lacy at the very open- ing of hostilities by Capt. Miles O'Reilly Is especially {mportant in its bearing on other capitulations yet to come. If De Lacy, fortified as he was, intrenched and barricaded by blackmail and pull, could yield at the first fire we have a right to expect other surrenders long desired in pool-rooms and gambling-houses uptown. It haa not been supposed that they are stronger in such resources than De Lacy was. De Lacy says that “If the police want to they can close a place up.” That is the long and short of the whole matter. What O'Reilly has done other captains ‘an do, Or, if they don’t know the O'Reilly way it might ‘be well to rotate the valiant captain around the various precincts where his services are needed. He knows how, and that is a kind of knowledge greatly in demand at present—greatly in demand by the public and, most of all, by the administration if it is to redeem promises long left unperformed. Whe Overcrowded Car.—The ladies of the West End Wom- en's Republican Association have made a good beginning in adopting resolutions of protest against the overcrowd- ing of street cars. Now, if they will only tell us tho overcrowding can ve remedied their services will be grate- fully appreciated. THE COST OF COAL, The coal operators evidently expect that the cause of the miners will be prejudiced by the publicity given to the suggestion made by President Mitchell that the in- crease of cost involved in the demand of the miners could be put upon the price of coal. Did anyone expect anything else? Did any one sup- pose that the onerators would, under any circumstances, put their hands in their own pockets to meet the cost of advancing the wages of the miners? ‘The net cost of the proposed advance is given at 12 cents a ton, or about $7,000,000 on a year’s supply of anthracite. It has cost the public more than that ina month, without counting the cost to the miners and their employers, with no perceptible gain to either of the three parties in interest. The operators are not grieving deeply over the cost of coal to the dear public. What they want Is to break up the Mine Workers’ Union, and to accomplish that end they are perfectly willing to subject the public to more éerious sacrifices than an advance of 12 cents a ton in the price of coal.

When yesterday morning's fog cleared away from the harbor some surprise was caused by the appearance of the steamship Hugoma resting easily on the soft mud of Oyster Island, where it had gone aground while looking for an anchorage. It was an unusual occurrence, but {t promises to be more frequent hereafter. The enormous consumption of coal in harbor transportation was never !mpressed on the New York mind until within the past two weeks. With soft coal tre amount of smoke given our converte an or- dinary fog into dangerous darkness, and should the use of soft coal continue into the more foggy season of autumn the experience of the Hugoma will be a daily occurrence, while the menace to ferry trafile is too seri- ous to be discussed as long as there is a hope of avert- ing it. Uniting Behind Marphy.—it !s well for Congressman Me- Glellan to appeal to the faithful to “sacrifice personal am bition and preferences, to forget party difference to forget the quarrels and discussions of the pas why should he ask them to “unite behind Ch Murphy?" Is not this new Democratic doctrine. SHERIFF DIKE’S MODEL JAIL The Brooklyn jailbird as in his prison cell}. sits will no longer be the desolate being that he was. Sheriff Dike has ideas of his own about personal comfort in prisons. He thinks that bad air has much to do with bad morals, One cause of had air in a confined area at night is due to the gaslight burning out the oxygen; to prevent this us far as possible the Sheriff has shut off the gas in the Raymond Strect Jall and substituted electric light. He also holds out 4 promise of electric fans and other in- novations such as will “make the jail attractive.” Raymond Street Jail is well nigh hopeless architectur- ally, but these {mprovements will accomplish some good, Prisoners who have preferences about Jails as about hotels may come to regard it as a Waldorf among such institu- tions. Brooklyn's “society” Sheriff seems to be getting @ reputation of being the right sort even among those who were sorry to see Guden go. His “society” juries have been a success; his prison tmprovement ideas are along the right lines. Of course, if he makes his jail too attractive he will hear from it on the stump in the next campaign. There were Fleet strect prisoners in Mr. Pickwick's time who used to fear that if they got out they could never get back again; will it come to this in Raymond street?
