ae Park Row, New York. Entered at the Post-Oftice at New York as Second-Class Mall Matter. VOLUME 48.... CHURCHILL’S DISMISSAL, The dismissal of Sergt. James Chufchill from the police force yesterday establishes a precedent of impor-| tance in the department. It indicates a decline in the power of the “pull.” “Pressure of business,” as Com- missioner Partridge calls it, has held up Churehill's sea- tence for nearly five months, but in the end the officer has had to go, political influence having proved powerless to save him. Churchill as acting captain of the Fifteenth Precinct | ‘was temporarily 1n command of what is popularly known | as the “Red Light” district. He was put there to suc-) ceed Diamond after the fusionist orators had attracted public attention to the prevalence of notorious conditions | there by making the denunciation of these conditions a | feature of the compa'gn against Tammany. He +‘gnillzed his appointment by a series of spectacular rafds which promised a thorough cleaning of the precinct, but this vigilance was speedily relaxed and the old order of things restored. He {s now found guilty of neglect of duty In) failing to suppress such improper resorts and also of con- duct unbecoming an officer. If it had been found impossible to hold Churchill re- sponsible on the evidence brought against him and to calling other precinct commanders to account. This was | generally recoznized and Churchill's sentence, carried | out in opposition to very strong political pressure, will | + do much for the discipline of the department.

Nothing in the line of expert evidence in a court-room has ever exceeded in farcical features that of the hand- writing specialists in the Molineux case. Their contra- dictory testimony would be ludicrous beyond expression ‘if it were not for the sobering reflection that a man’s life has been weighed in the balance against their filmsy tis- sue of insubstantial theorfes. The professional jargon about “supinated s’s" and “fluent fizzles” developed under Mr. Black's handling of these witnesses Wednesday ‘would be deemed extravagant in a comic opera libretto. As serious contributions to the burden of evidence ‘against a suspected murderer they come near Insulting the Court's intellixence. The admission of one discom- fited expert that after his hasty off-hand expression of opinion in a matter of compared handwriting had in- “volved the honor of a woman he had found it expedient “on second thought to contradict himself flatly was a case «in point, aggravated it may be, of the worthlessness of such testimony. One of the few good results of this costly, prolonged and tedious trial will be the discrediting of this species ‘of expert. The Evening World quoted recently the opin- fon of Supreme Court Justice Woodward that the abuses of expert evidence have “grown so notorious that If not checked it seems inevitable that a reaction must come which will abolish such testimony altogether.” This re- action Is likely to be accelerated by the developments of the second Molineux trial. THE NEW ERA, It is a veritable pleasure to see that civilization is Mfting us above the narrow prejudice whic! divorced -eouples have heretofore entertained against one another. ‘If a ceremony which inflicts mutual bondage is conven- tionally suppcsed to foster regard, how much more so should a ceremony which confers mutual IMberty. But entirely apart from sentimental grounds there Is cogent practical reason why people should be amicable toward their ex-husbands and wives. For before many ‘years the women of a married man’s acquaintance will be divided into two great classes, the women he has once wedded and the woman he is wedded to, and if he can be amicabie to neither of these classes what is to become of amicability in this world? But not only should the erstwhile spouses be cordial to one another but to their precursers and successors, The closest friendship should exist between the wife that ‘was, the wife that is and the wife that is to be, the ex- husbead, the acting husband and the husband-clec ‘These are not the dreams of an ideal future, they ur>| the facts of a rationa! vresent.

The Spanish war had just broken out and there was a de- cided miltary flavor to the tableaux. ‘Phat in which the brown-eyed girl had figured so charmingly was entitled “Oft for Cuba,” and she posed as a young woman bidding her sweetheart good-by. ‘The girl was shy and had little ex- perlence of the world. She had hesl- tated a long time before consenting to form a part of a picture dealing with the emotions so poignantly expressed. But the other girls in the church had laughed at her, and when she learned thet the part of the other departing sot- dier was to be taken by @ young man she had never before met it did not seem to be so dreadful after all.
