flight to have -a committee up t?> the
Poaid of Estimate t?. know if this thing
i" ?isn't slept long enough. Y.m will hav
at It-hr one vote with you By th? way. I
ta,., three votes, so >ou will have three,
ami we will try to get it oui and do It.
TOa great dim? ulty In official matters Is to

In Defence of Central.
I? ,t wai not the end ?if what ha had
?<? y about the New York Central and
? ?nth avenue. There was a good ?leal
.-fence of th? rallroa?l before
???rough. Faying:
...??t year they had a bill up in Albanv
that If the New York ?'entrai did not take
heir tracks in six months and g?-t%out,
then the tracks wire to be pulled up and
ompanv was to be put out. jQBt think
it' Th? y ?ame Int.. the city .?f New
Yr.iV when the city needed them bad!? -
Bllroad did. It got Its tracks legit 1
y. and moje than that. If the tracks
?>i torn up In the <"itv ?.f New York this
the commerce of this ?Ity ?vould
nost come to a standstill to-morrow.
? ? that soit of business Is called states
hip by some people. My own notion
. ,t when the votes an- counted that
tt statesmanship will be found at a
Hing discount all the timo. He finds
vi pretty fast.
'. what is the law of the case? The
f the case is that th?'y have a right
but the law goe? further and says
when their locatl m tu-cornes lncon
it or dangerous the cty has a right
?s a law fo give them a substitute
to put them in another place where
wont do harm. Well. Tomklns and
our heads together last wint??r ami
Irew a bill up to tills effect?that we
i A give that railroad a substitute rout?
r? places undergroun?! ami some places
ic-ad, but nowhero on the ground any
to,
the ragbag bill Went through flying
'.?tramen at Albany picked it up ahead
?ur bill and put it right through. Of
las every sensible person?not to say
?iv sensible lawyer?knew that it was not
w..ith the paper It was written on. Rttd I
Buppoas the man who waB back of It knew
? ? rfectlv well. But once you try to g? t
M on claptrap you r.ever get over it.
-rap then becomes the diet that you ,
11 tin. You swell out and puff up In "the
? of the groundlings ami look so lm
nt when you deal !n claptrap.
I I had, of course, to veto that bill
- ? . it cam? to the city Hall. And then
b\ lair? ff.rce and with no helo except
tr- you gentlemen-no help around the
C\V Hall?Mr. Tomklns did get the hill
'hrc >gh at Albany, and It was approved by
?Ttye'.f as Mayor and bv the Oovernor. and
ta I Mil was that before October 1 the
Ne?' York Central should file with the
d of Estimate and Apportionment a
i?ia i taking all these tracks and ?howlng
thet.t either underground or overhead, out
of harm's way; and before- t.he time was
'ip they had their plans filed?I want to tell
ou to-night?they had them filed.
Thev did not lose any tim? about It at nil.
and they are anxlou? to do It. And. what
1? moTe, -we put In the bill that they had
to do the whole thing at their own expense
aril at no cost to the city what?*?*er, snd
?iVy didn't complain about that either,
falnly because it wouldn't have done them
*-nv good if they did.
Before he got around to subways and
Hieven t h avenue the Mayor disposed of
?r?gt Problems and such thing-?. The trusts
*ere ihe easiest things he had to handle.
I? ?hm all very simple Corporations were
wganlv-d tinder a statute. Repeal the stat?

PRAISES MEDICINE'S COURSE
Dr. Schurman, of Cornell, Says
Law Falls Short.
Jacob Could Schurman, president of Cor?
nell University, derlar?-d last night that
the law had not made and wa? not making
the progress, either in the humanitarian or
In the scientific direction, that medicine
was, and while medicine was advancing
civilization, he often thought the lawyer
Was not as happily situated as the physi
cian. and pursued ends anti-social rather
thiiii altruistic.
The criticism of the legal profession was
mad? by Dr. Schurman In a speech at the
dinner of the Society of Medlca.1 Jurlspru
dence at the Hotel Savoy. Dr. Schurman
a<|il?-?l the law avas falling short of the, de?
mand that the public had a right to make
of It.
Speaking of the Sherman anti-trust law.
I'r Schurman said lawyers, instead of get
tlntr together and trying to solv** the prob?
lem of trusts, Which was both a legal and
an economic one, advised their clients how
ti k?eep within the law and without the
prison. He mentioned the lance number of
bonks circulated by socialists amona labor
men in Which the aarlters spoke of a servil?
Judiciary and said lawyers were to a large
degree responsible that such Idea? were be
Ins spread broadcast. _
"The lawyers have not recognized thHr
duties toward the community," Dr. Schur?
man saiil. "The law Is a progressive scl
ence, although based on precedents, and
you can't everlastingly look backward. The
lawyers must try to bring the laws to th?
level of modern social and, Industrial con?
ditions."
Dr. Reynold Webb WllOOS presided at th?,
??inner. Among the speakers were the Rev.
Dr. Hoben \V. Mclaughlin. Dr. Smith Kly
Jelliffi- and i'arl H?user.
BRONX. WANTS TRAINS TO STOP
Thinks It Is Entitled to Express Ser
vice by Reason of Population.
The Public. Service Commission has taken
up with the management of the New York
< entrai & Hudson River Railroad Company
the question of having all express trains
make at least one stop In The Rronx.
Commissioner .John K. Eustls has had a
conference with officials of the company. In
which he pointed out tho reasons urged for
such a change. He pointed out that all of
the fast trains were stopped at Hlghbrldge
for ths purpose of changing engines, and
he thought it ought not to be difficult to
arrange to receive and discharge passen?
gers during such stops.
The Commissioner also said that nil of
the fast trains stopped at the principal
cities along the line, and he said thit most
rf these cilles had less population than
The Bronx. Mr. Kustis la hopeful that the
company will make the desired concession.
