At the time of the populay up rising in 1891 against the train murders on the Central's Eleventh avenue tracks President Chauncey M. Depew said “An agitation similar to this is, directed against us every year,” To-day, fifteen years later, indig- nant citizens are still keeping up the} fight. They have seen the death] roll mount from twenty-eight, the] figures which provoked the ‘agi-| tation” of 1898, to a point where} attained a ratio of a victim a week, line of those who have lost an arm or a leg sion, ighterhas recently hey have seen tl fengthen into a “Com AC 2 Wockade of the streets grow annually worse with > increase five-fold | bill for relief at Albany “killed” by watch. | Th and the ir They: have seen bil ful logisiative « have seen th Uerierence } Yet they have not lost heart, They note that at every recurrence of | the “agitation” the augmented public sentiment behind it makes it more | fggceful. They are as certain that these death tracks will eventually go as they ‘ t MeCurdy But h ng must they wait? How many more lives must be sac-| ed before “Death Avenue” is made safe? In a time cf popular demand for the abolition of grade crossings there are perimiited on Eleventh avenue, below Fifty-ninth street, a score, of the n.ost dangerous crossings which are to be found anywhere. Power- | ful locomotives haul long trains through a congested thoroughfare under | the same primitive safeguards which existed fifty-five years ago, when the region traversed was open country. . How much longer are the murderous conditions to be tolerated? Paul Kelley's Closed—Next! It appears to have been a perfectly simple and easy matter to close | + Paul Kelley's saloon and dance hall once the resolution to do so was taken | by the Police Commissioner. Following that good beginning, what about the “hundred dives just as ad” which the Commissioner is reported as saying are flourishing in the | city? If their character is as represented they exist in open defiance of the law. Their licenses are-void, They are moral plague spots which should be wiped out, | Probably no more effective blow could be dealt at gang domination | than to close the dives which serve as their haunts. A gang without 2| saloon as headquarters and basis of supplies would be an organization without coherence. It would lack the main motive for existence. Schwab as Senator, How much seriousness there may be in the project to make Charles M, Schwab Senator from Nevada remains to be seen. But it is to be sur- that the suggestion will appeal to many citizens of the Sagebrush State. With Schwab In the seat of Sharon, Stewart and Pair the silver age would be expected to return to Nevada. In him the State would have a ‘bgnanza king of a new order, but one well qualified to maintain old tradi- . tions. What he might do as an orator is not so important as the voice he would give Nevada in Wall street and in the commercial councils of the Géhate. Socially he could represent his new constituents with becoming eclat from his chateau on Riverside Drive. h The proposal indeed has much to commend It. Under Schwab's ex- | <ploitation there is reason to believe that the Western pocket borough » would assume a new importance among American States, ‘The paling of the sputtering night lamp on her table at length caused ner to glance toward the wi light had erept upon her w . level ehaft of light, turnt | A New Yorker’s Strange 2 ae = = Quest for a Pirate Hoard | OF PREVIOUS CHAPTERS @ young New Yorker, who , joins & circus troupe, ‘an abnormal influence over event While the ¢ cua of the eastern seu into a lake of shim: rey ural Mettord an ances mering gold, tincuncec the risiig of AS a pirate, rumored to huve| the sun Ail nature seemed wished feasure somewhere on Block Lal: clean by the hursicane Gault, nae boy. had found a despatch clearness of ctnosprire oroag box, once the poser of lerael.
