ULTON MARKET is “a blot om the face of the city” and" must be wiped out. Another evidence of the destructiveness of New York in Me passion for convenience as against cheapness in living! * Time wae—before the elevated road connected with the Bridge fm Brooklyn, before the trolleys went across to New York—when traffic pouring by the big market made it a flourishing centre. Mwenty-five years ago it was a busy, crowded place, one of the cheery sights of the city on a sunny morning. Now it is « rat-ridden cavern, unkempt, unclean, omelling to heaven, fit only to be scoured off the map. In the old.days a large part of New York used to go to market % save money. Now it goes to the nearest delicatessen shop to fave trouble. To succeed to-day any public market must be on an ‘expensive corner where thousands of people pees it. It must not equire them to go ten steps out of their way. Washington Market eurvives only because New Jersey commuters still go to Communipew. Schemes for reducing the cost of living are constantly wrecked @o marketing. So take a last look at old Fulton Market. Heave a sigh for Dorlon and Eugene G.

It is good news te hear T _ that we make progress in discouraging him. Less than twelve months ago it was pointed out that in one year in this city 8,648 fires, representing a destruction of $3,000,000 worth of property, one-quarter of the total fire loss, were eliberately planned. Of seventy-two cases of arson that came before the courts in the same period only twenty-three resulted in con- victions. According to the annual police report for the year 1919, there were but sixty-one arrests for arson and only fourteen convicted. Within the last twelve months, however, according to Fire Chief Kenlon, “eighty-five scoundrels of the firebug type have been sent te Sing Sing, and this has helped to cut down the number of fires of incendiary origin.” “For many years,” be declares, “this form of crime has flourished because it has been almost impossible to convict for arson. The sympathy of juries seems to go out to those charged with that crifme, though I cannet see why any sym- pathy should be wasted on a scoundrel who would burn up immocent women and children by applying the torch in order ‘that he'might gain a few miserable dollars.” The Romans punished arson with death. So did the Saxons and the medieval Germans. In England to-dsy a man who deliberately! sets fire to his own property or that of others can be sent to jail for| life. In this State the maximum penalty is forty years. But why in practice do we so rarely take advantage of the law to mete out pun-| BONAPARTE SECRETS.
