In using these impressive figures aa a basis for con- fdent expectation of relief from transit congestion, it is profitable to make comparisons with the figures of “L" traffic, Im''1903 the number of passengers handled on the elevated lines in Manhattan showed an increase over that of the previous year of $1,327,677. That is, the | ounces of talounr you ordered?’ a knock-out finish, that Standard O11 settled the scrip between Charles F.

The gain for 192 over 1901 was at the rate of 7,596,825 & quarter, only slightly Jess in the year's total “han for 1903, It is therefore apparent that in the brief time since the subway was begun the elevated has had “to provide for a new business amounting to 60 per cent. congestion of through city trafe will be fully as gre! as at present. Mr. E. C. Benedict, one of the builders of the Ninth 4 venue elevated, says that New Yorkers “had hard work in getting seats in omnibuses,” and he does not doubt that “the old conditions will prevail when the subway @ running under pressure,” It is @ beliet shared by every one, particularly in| out of ‘em you can. ‘view of the gains made last year by the “L” at the ex-| pense of the surface roads. Thus the Third avenue sur-| face line alone lost nearly 6,000,000 passengers, It is! © reasonable iuference that most of them went to the faster “‘L,” as it is a reasonable inference that as many more will desert other surface roads for the subway. ‘This incidental accession of new traffic will add further to a congestion from which no permanent escape Is of- fered, not even by the subways yet unbuillt. But at least the temporary removal of pressure from ‘the “L” should provide a seat-enjoying interval which its patrons will welcome. They will be specially re- sentful of any attempt of the management to take ad- vantage of the opportunity offered to limit the train service or introduce other car-packing economies, To 5 prolong the interval of relief a hurry call should go out for the other tunnels already proposed and partly planned. LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, Chiet of Pulice Hayes in the Hoboken Police Court has issued an order that policemen are in future to re- ot frain from referring to their prisoners as “gentlemen” end “ladies.” This opens up again the old, old question, When is & lady not a lady? When does a man degenerate into ® gentleman? Just because & lady ts arrested for scratching her Dest friend's face, doos she thereforé cease to be ladylike and become merely womanly? Just because 4 gentleman ts arrested for beating h's ‘wife, can it be cajled a manly rather than a gentlemanly act? If this ts so It will be a serious blow to the social + prestige of our criminal classes.

Within | another four years, there is reason to apprehend, the) off to get the Job, The District Leader's Second Assistant Deputy Lieutenant explained to me that the condition of the rooms had a lot to do with making the Party popular, and that the man who kept them rooms lookin’ nice would be a power In tho THstriet and could awing hundreds of votes, So as a spe- clal favor he lety me sweep out the club, morning and! night; wash the windows; currycomb the transparencies; serub the stairs; tend the furn and be sole custodian the cuspldors.

He says if I work well I | oan have the Job as a permanency, no matter whag political pull ts brought to bear to oust me. I must be pretty solid with the Leader, I guess, to get such nonora slowered on me so quick. He nodded at me one day when he came into | the rooms.
