@t New York as Second-Ciass Mail Matter. WOLUME 48.__._____NO. 15,086 A LAXITY IN THE LAW, Justice Alfred Steckler at the Phi Delta Phi dinner night made some remarks about search warrants the sanctity of person and dwelling guaranteed by Constitution which are of timely inte: things the Justice said: Byery man's home, as in the first days of constitutfonal the peace officer to enter or to selze cannot he 4 but upon probable cause supported by affidayit, nam- or describing the person and particularly describing the ty and the place to be searched. h unnamed places are Illegal, and property to be solzed “must be particularly described. Another fact, apparently los: P aight of, 1s that in the absence of positive instruction in tho Hf srarrant to tho contrary, the search must be made tn the da: | time and not at night, and, while an officer may break open I} the doore of a place to he searched, proper notice must be | @tven and admission refused before ft !s his right to do so. |The use of the axe and the battering ram {n making forcible entry into castellated private residences in the \derloin and elsewhere has become so much of a mat- ‘ of course that we have lost sight of the lack of war- for such emashing processes.

In ‘Ro other could it exercise an influence for greater evil in the Tax Department. If Mr. Martin knows ‘whereof he speaks it is his duty as a citizen to make ‘Pudlic his charges in a definite manner and press them. Simply to voice a rumor is not enough. JOHN LS ENOLISH. Languege as John L, Sullivan uses it as the vehicle for the expression of his {eas assumes a rare richness ‘ef vooabulary and flexibility of meaning. His sayings in Part Vi. of the Supreme Court yesterday deserve pres- “‘ervation as models of the President's Engiish. To a “thin and precise-looking woman" in the court-room he wald by way of comment on the questions asked of a witness: ‘Nutty, madam, plumb nutty; them guys Js all ity.” And to himself he added: “The whole jolnt is on the bug.” To a witness he sald: “If that guy kids me like he's Kiddin’ you I'll make him look like thirty cents.” Of the lawyers he said: “They talk too much. They're ‘@ cheap set of four-flushers.” ‘To the Judge: “Say, you're a good man. I wish there ‘was more like you. John 1. does honor to a good man.” And to the men in the box: “Gentlemen of the jury, men, you fellers’—— Here, unfortunately, the distinguished pugilist was | est short in an address that started off {nan Antony-like Tanner and probably would have been memorable In Gury speeches. Hard were the hearts of the court at- tendanis that stopped him. CITY OWNERSHIP OF DOCKS. The decisions nanded down yesterday by Justice Bteckler upholding the municipality's title to yalusb!o ‘water front property are doubly important: They directly gaye millions of dollars to the city and warrant it in pro- ceeding with the contemplated plan of permanent dock improvements. The main opinion was rendered in the suit of the Knickerbocker Ice Company against the Dock Board ask- 4mg an injunction to restrain the city from using the water front on the North River between Forty-second ‘and Forty-third streets known as Thirteenth avenue. The ©, tee company sought to sell this property to the Dock Board for $120,000. The Board refused to purchase on » the ground that it was city property. This contention a ‘the Justice now sustains and by so doing calls in qui tion the title of many corporations and private owners ‘who hold lands on the water front legally the property of | the city. ' He thus puts an end to their encroachments and © points oul the way for the city to recover. \ THE FORGIVING GOLFER, ‘Those who feared that the exchange of personalities son the Montclair golf links wherein one player felled an- » other to the ground with a putter would result in any = permanent breach of the bond of club courtesy appear to Pave reckoned withont a proper estimate of the strength ot this bond.
