rushed through the LegioUtOltl without timebeing __-Tordad to consider the grave questionsinvolved in it. Those who sign this protestcharacterize it as a breach of faithon the part of the State and an at¬

Some important testimony was elicited yes-tetday before Coroner Levy ii: his investigationinto the cause of the heait-rending disaster at

tlie German Catholic school. Particularlyworthy ot prompt attention ou the part ofwhom it may concern were the statementsmade by the Superintendent of the Society for

the Prevention of Cruelty to Children. He

expieaoed the opinion, as the result of his ex*

nminntioo, that twenty-six out of the thirty-four parochial school buildings in tho city were

defective: that seven ont of the ten Home foit!ie Fri*- idleaa Behool buildings ..ere defectivethat fifteen out ot the eighteen Children- AidSociety school buildings were defective; andtint uH the buildings four in number,occupied by the Hebrew pchools, wiro defec¬tive. And when the Supt iintenileiit came- to de¬fine v.hat he meant by a ''defective" building,ho Showed that he meant a building which was

in a condition that invited and tendered c:i-ythe repetition cf the German Catholic schooltragedy. The warning baaheen Bounded. .Voeto those who have the care of these defectiveschool buildings if it ia disregarded.

THB PLEA OF INSANITY,In-ano murderers are likely to be scarce it.

California hereafter if the proposed new lawia adopted, its provisions remind one of thedurkey's coon-trap.they nie denlgned to** cotch " the animal both " ngwme'and ncouiiii'."If a inaii aecosed ot minder makes a plea of in*sanity, ho is to beeinmined Iii st on that point.If the examination declares him Bane, he is then

ti led for murder, and bia first plea ia to count as

un nggiavatiOB of his offence. If the examina¬tion declares him to be insane, he is to be sent

to ;i mad-hooao for lilc and is not to bc releasedunless bis sanity at the time of his crin e is es¬

tablished, in which event he is to he at once

put on nial for his crime. There is no induce¬ment ior a mnrderer to plead insanity under alaw like that unless he prefers life in an Insanensylinn to hanging, By pleading not guiltyand standing his trial au nceused murderermight get free on the ground of lasufflcienlevidence, 01 Mime other cause; er lu- might gelf.fi with a term ol imprisonment j bnt by plead¬ing insanity be accepts one of two certainties..-it her to be shut up foi lift- in an insane BSyltUnor h. hanged.We have not seen the full law but only au

sbstracl of it. These provisions wc have men*tioned 'lu noi Boom in covei cu-e*. where a ci im-mi.ii i*. Insane at the ti mc of committing thc deedand recovera his sanity subsequently. This un*

doubtedly Imppena sometimes, hui in nearly allinataneea the plea of temporurj insanity ia asubterfuge. It univ be the Intent of the Cull*ftiniia lan tn include iii the provisions namedell casca where insanity lspleaded, leting on theprinciple that amaa who has been insane once

ard committed murder is liable to other similaraberrations, and is, therefore, a oonstunt men¬

ace to the, safety of society, The possibility of

nnj.i iaonlng for life in a mad-bonas a pet factlysane man, in punishment for a crime fir w Inchlu- ii tii.t morally responsiblei should be avoidedIn every way, but ii must he said that snell a

poasibiUty is very rare. We venture lo say thatwith a law like the California one in force we

should hear very little of Insane murderers,.Your temporary iiiFauo persona, with a tend¬ency to homicide, uro usually sane SttO-gtl atall times to lookout carefully for their o.mi

necks. They know the penalty foiniiiin andthe ehnaees for dodtcinK it BS well as anybody.Tho Quiteao trial awakened aa almont na.*

Mi-nl desire for a rndicnl reform in om ciim-inal laws on this inmuity idea. Bis was an ag¬gravated cri-e of it, uud he managed it an nell*fully that many soft-hearted people to-day araafraid the Liovertiinent hanged a liimttic whenit hanged him. ll the California law hud beenni foi ce in thc District of Columbia we doubt if hswould ever have dl-covcied thut he was inn.meat all. Under such a law "expert" testimonywould be a very difleivut thing irom what it is

noa-. At present it is tho most unsatisfactoryfeature of our criminal trials. " Expert* n can

always bo lound to swear on both side* of a

case, Bind Ibo moro they swear lite dooper be¬comes tie muddle. Sometimes, indeed ai nearlyall times, the ilili'orence ol' opinion among themis honest. The trouble is not in them but inthe inexact state of tits SCtBUec wbieb theyrepresent. Hut when thc law .says that if a manis insane he is to be Imprisoned lor life, and ithe is not insane his pretense that he i* is to betakes as evidence that lie is a murderer, tholicld for expert testimony will be coiisideiablylimited. The inlluenco ol sympathy for thoprisoner will be entirely removed, for whateverthe verdict reached on hi* mental condition, itwill be lnid fm- linn. There aili ba little in¬ducement to take sides, and the pi goner's case

will be ih iiled mole hcaily on its merits than

nuder tba pissant ayatera. lint we venture to

say that under the California law the expertswould seldom be called in at all. Their ser¬

vices would not bo merely restricted; theywould virtually be abolished.

LP.GAL'ASPECIS GE THE. SHERIDAN CASEThe demand for the cxtrmliticn of Mr. Par¬

nell's zealous friend and follower, Sheridan, isbased on a charge of complicity in mumer. Itmust not bs supposed that the crime of murderis limited by ibo lnws of thia country to theuetual pei petrution of the crime. .Several of theStates havo gone tar bcyoud the, old commonlaw rule and have included the accessory beforethe fact in the crime of the principal. u Suchaccessory,'' say* Wharton. ¦ although absent at¦ tho commission of the felony, if he procures,¦ OOUnsolB. or commands another to commit said"felony subsequently perpetrated in consequence"of such counsel or command, is liable to beu charged with the crime." Hy the statutes of theState of New-York, tho distinction has beenabo) ished, and tho accessory before the fact is lia¬ble to be included as a principal. It was decidedin the case of Ref, tat, Williams (but thia is a

British et\S6| that when procurement is by an

intermediate Bgeat it is not necessary that the

accessory be cognizant of the name of the per¬petrator.The treaty between tlie United States and

(.teat Britain provides that the extradition shalltake place upon such evidence ol criminality as

according to tho laws of the place where thefugitive <>r person so chuged shall be foundwould be Hillicleiit to Warran! committal. Itwould seem then that tin- definition of the crimeand tlie mode of procedure will be regulated hy¬the codes of ctlniiua! j nu edlin- of New-York.The renal Cede make* no distinction betweenaccessories before the tact and principals, but

THEY " A Loni. IN THE BHIP."In his letter to the Grant Cinb st Albany on

the oecaaioo of tire (linnet recently given them*aelvea by thal organization, ex-Senator < 'onklingvividly recall* to tbe reedai ol tbe N>wl. .nen t tbs etrenmatoncea auder which tbsgreat Apostle to tbs Osottlea made bi* tirst land**lng Bl Malta. " Standing in the piesemM 1*1" reverses mid grieving far events which aeeiuu not good for our country," wrote thees*Senator, "the (inuit Club and its member*can say

' Wo ninnie, lu tba ahlp';" aad that lswhat the centurion and the soldier* who were

with Sf. Paul might have saul a* they stoodaround the fire for which Ihe spastic had- gathered a bundle of stick*," foi it la recordi dthat " Pl nil said to the OBI tullun lind to the

It mnv BSdoubted if the ex-Senator tn this figure runs on

all-foiiis lu every paitlcnlar with tbs apostle,but in tho respect that each told the centurionmid Soldiers that they could not be saved ex¬

cept they abode iu thc .-hip, the resemblance laperfect.

lt is Written Of the early patt of the SOyBgeWhich ended bo disastrously at Malta, that they"sailed slowly many dav*," and the same mightIx-said wild lilith of thc voyage i f t hose whounder ex-Seiiaior ConkTIug'a Bdrloeuabode lathe ship." Hut " when in tic li lime was | pent, andwhen Bailing was now dangerous*^.a point cor*

responding in the voyage of the three hundredand six to thut Just preceding the anira! aftho other centurion from his trip around Ibeworld."Paul admonished them" (and beralawhere the parallelism between Senator andSaint halts f,-r a moment), " and said unto them," 'Sirs, 1 pi ki ive thal this vu;aga will be aitb" hm t aad lunch damage, nol only «f the lading" and abip, bnl also of our live-.' The Senatordid not peroeive thia, 'I hf. Tiuiw m. did, bow*ever, ami spike warda "1 corresponding Importto the centurion and the three hundred and -ix.The centurion of Paul's time wintered in "aharen of Crete,'1 which "Helli toward thosouthwest mill northwest.n In the correspond¬ing Beaton in ex-Senator Conklings time thethree hundred and sn wintered in a similarharbor. It lar "toward tbe touthweal sudnorthwest.'' Then the elder record ii ;ii-

"when the south wind blew aoftly, boppoelng"thatthey bud obtained their purpose, loosing** thence, they Bailed cloae by Crete." Howaptly this runs with the period when Colonel¦Thoma* Ochiltree and olin ra were engaged in"scooping In" Southern delegations, when"th* south wind blew softly'1 a.ni the threebundled and six supposed ¦ that they bad ob¬tained their purpose.''Following tho soft south wind, however, it

will be remembered that there came dornPennsylvania and New-York a breeze corre¬

sponding to what is described us bappeoingtothe ship of the cenfiiiion and his lellow-\ oy-

Bgers. " Not long after thee arose against il a

tompestnoua wind, culled Eurodydon.fl Themu ( ceding passage in the narrative of the cen-*tm ion's shipwreck dci.crihcs precisely the pro¬ceeding* Ol the ex-Senator's crew. u And when"the ship was caught, and could not bear upu Into the wind, wo let her drive." The studentof current political history does mit. need to beleniiiidcd how, when tho tempestuous windcalled EoroelydOU carno up from Pennsylva¬nia and New-York in theenrly spring of l>s<>,the gentlemen who afterward " ubodo lu theBhip" ut the command of ex-Senator (.'(inkling,"lot her drive." lt is related that they who were

with the apostle " used helps, undergirding thou ship ; and, fearing lest they should fall in the

" quicksands, strake sail, and so were driven."The .. nndargirding*1 by means of tho unit rule,by which tho three hundred and six strove to

avoid quicksands, finds nowa parted parallel,and ii is n remarkable coincidence that in bothcases when they ''.shako sail" they "were

driven." The third day of the voyage of thethree hundred and six, which ended in ship¬wreck at Chicago, hagan with theeftort of ex-

Niia'tor Conkling to exclude the delegates from

Weat Virginia, and was occupied with tho

report of the Committee OB Credentials, It is

accurately described in the account of Paul'sVoyage, "And the third day we cast out with** our own hands the tackling of tho ship. Aud** when neither sun nor stars in many days ap-** pealed, and no small tempest lay ou us, ."ll"hope that wo should be auvnd was then taken¦ away.*' Nor could the final event of tho voy¬

age of the three hundred and six be illustratedin a more titting or forcible tiguro of speechthan in the actual description of what hap¬pened to the apostle and his companions. Thenarrative runs: "And falling into a placeu where two acas met, they ran the ship"aground ; and tho forepart stuck fast, and re-

"mained unmovable, but the hinder part waau broken with the violence of the waves." Womust congratulate Mr. Conkling upon the felic¬ity with whieh in a ainsle Mentone- ho has con-

ueeied the shipwreck at Malta with tho disasterat Chicago. Ho has covered the canvas with a

single aweep of the brush. They all "abode inthe ship."We might pnrt.no the figure as to u tho bar¬

barous people " who in both cases allowed theshipwrecked ones "no little kindness''; we

might, Indeed, call attention to the fact thatthe ex-Senator holds over the Saint in tho re¬

spect that while only ono viper carno out of thebund lo of sticks which the latter had gathered,and fastened on lils ha..d, the ex-Senator doesnot hesitate io say that out of tho bundle hogathered several havo como to eting him. Butthat would be foreign to our purpose, and his.

Our only wish is to draw out the lull meaningof tho ex-Senator's beautiful sentimeut: "Weabode in the ship."

A MARINE MEDICAL BBBVICB.The attention recently attracted in Kngland

to tho position of ship singe his and tho neces¬

sity for a radical revision of the medical andsanitary departments nf tbe mercantile marineappears likely to result in some action by thoHoard of Trade .oohing to the upi ointment ofmedical officers as . fbi inls of the British Cov¬et nment, responsible to the Government alone.The ground taken by Dr. Hilliard Irwin at a

meeting of the Manchester Medico-Ethical As¬sociation led to the passage of a resolution re*

quanting Government Inquiry Into tbe status andsfficiency of Burgeonsnpon passenejei .hips, andthis request has been tuhen op by tho lendingmedical journnlaol (treat Britain. This is, of

course, a subject In which Americana are deeplyinterested, innsmuch as tee furnish the bulk ofil a cahill pnnsengen between this country andEngland, while it is nlso ¦ matter of importancethat the thousands of immigrants yearly comingherc should land iu a satisfactory sanitary con¬

To taks away tho power of protecting snellamounts from the debtor is to aim a blow at confi¬dence between man and man.

Another view of the ca»e arises where tradersobtain luaus from a banker to help tneni in an

emeiejency. The abolition of preferences will ren¬

der it datis-crou* for banks to make *>dvance* to blt

man whose position ls ijuestionable, and the propor¬tion of failures may be increased by rendering such

assistance impossible. Suon a jurisdiction over pref¬erences as was esutemplated by the Senate llaak-

raptey bill,w ould. in the vat ied conditions of trader*in cities and country place*, involve les* harm andinjustice than a hard aud fast line, either prevent-iData4.II preferences or leaving ¦*».¦ at present, to Ihe

debtor to prefer whom he pleases. However, of Ihe

two evils, the entire abolition of preferences willprobably be the least.
