BROADBRIM'S 1 Y. LETTER.
IKlth a week of cyclonic storms filled
with death and disaster, the trial of tho
phenomennl thieves, Ives and Stayncr, tho
Flack trial, a daylight assassination and
any number of minor affairs of interest,
the middle of September may well be con-
sldercd a red letter week. What a week
Ithasbccnl Itain, a deluge; wind, a bur
rlcano; news of disaster everywhere,
Whllo tho heaviest of the suffering was
undoubtedly at the outsldo watering places
do not for a moment suppose that Now
York and Brooklin escaped without loss,
In fact the loss In absolute cash is greater
in tho two cities than In all the outside
watering places put together. When the
storm began on Sunday night tho wharves
all along tho river front were filled with
costly goods and the cellars along tho
North and East Itlver wero crammed with
hundreds of thousands-of dollars' worth of
merchandise. Ucforo the extent of the
calamity could bo anticipated tbo cellars
were flllcd, tho wharves submerged, and
all along both river fronts was ono sccno
of dire disaster. No such tide has been
seen for twenty years, and not many In
tho present century. Many of these eel-
lars, not used for storage, aro Inhabited by
a wretched class of human beings who
havo no other shelter; they wero driven
out like rats Into tho pitiless storm to find
shelter in tho station houses or any other
place that offered rcfugo from tho howling
wind and petting rain. Speaking of rats,
thero were millions of them all along both
river fronts, and they fouuht each other
with maddened desperation In seeking
places of safety. Sometimes a huge wharf
rat would bo seen floating on a little pleco
of stick or board just enough to hold his
weight; presently somo desporate rodent
struggling for dear life, would catch sight
of tho other rat floating on his ark of safe-
ty, then ho would attempt to get on board,
but the ship was not big enough for both
so both fell back In the water, then would
begin a desperate struggle for the ark
and it generally ended by both going
down.
ll'hal a fearful wieck Is beautiful Coney
Island; all along the beach, where lovers
strolled under the soft beams of the early
September moon, Is one vast and fearful sho was not feeling well, requested per
sccno of wide spread desolation. H'hero mUslon to remain. Mr. Olsen and his wife
Gllmoro wielded his magic baton on Sat -
urday, holding under bis under bis spell
listening and applauding thousands, all Is ness developed typhoid foyer. Tho girl re
wreck and ruin, iriierc Seldl interpreted 'usei' to have a doctor sent for by some of
tho inspiration of Wagner, all Is -
and darkness. J'eoplo away from New
York who hayo never visited this charming
watering place, when they read of tho
wreck of Coney Island are apt to say,
What of It? To the people of New 1 ork
and vicinity it means much moro than the
loss of a few thousand dollars. It was the

were tenderly cared for and riven a breath
of God's free air fresh and puro from the
ocean, uncontaw.nated by the fetid odors
of tho city. Ard here thousands of llttlo
ones wero gathered in from tho recklug
slums and Rlycn a clean wash and a short
summer outine. Then hnndrodsof thoti-
sands of poor people were enabled to on-'
joy for fifty cents or a dollar sncli a season
of pleasure as anywhere olso would have
bankrupted tho family treasury, and they
could near for comparatively nothing some
tho Qocst singers and musicians In the
world. And so we manrn the calamity
that has fallen upon us.
The result of this terrlblo storm has been,
a pei feet stagnation In all kinds of bust

used a tool hero and thero as ho found It
needful, but tho whole of tho villainous
plot was worked out In his own head till
Hhoscbcme almost reached a successful
completion
The unparalleled cheek of tho rascal Is
best shown by tho fact that when he had
not a quarter to pay for his breakfast nor a
shelter for his head except by tho suffer
auco of a casual acquaintance who allowed
him to put a little shabby old desk in a
dark corner of his office, ho got out his
cards and circulars, "Henry S. Ives, bank
or," and drew small checks of fifty cents
and a dollar and a half against himself,
trusting to chance and luck to meet them
as fast as they came In. Four years from
the time when he swept out offices for
three dollars a week ho failed for twenty
millions. Just think of It, -a penniless
vagabond getting up on nothing, a credit
of twenty millions, and In Wall Street the
homo of the sharps. It must mako some
of tho old operators sick as they read the
story. But the ontl.ls not far off. The
delicate gentleman Instead of riding to
Court In the Black Maria or walking hand'
culled .along the streets to a deputy sheriff,
has ridden to Court In a cab, and by pay
ing for the privilege has for tho present at
least secured an immunity from handcuffs
but his conviction Is certalii, for forgery
has been added to his other crimes, and If
bo gets a full term for each indictment he
will bo about a hundred and fifty years old
when he gets out, making due allowance
for 'u commutation for good conduct
For the first time since the case became
notorious, Sheriff Flack, his wife, and tbo
son, who betrayed his mother, were all In
Court together face to faco; but they were,
far from a happy family. It is an unpleas
ant affair eyen to think of, because the
perjury and conspiracy connected with the
caso lies right among tho ministers of juts
tice. Tbo judicial ermine is smirched
high officers and men of repute hitherto,
figure as little better, If any, than common
felons; whllo the son by his treacherous
act has sunk himself so low that no man
cares to recognize him. . Sheriff Flack has
a strong political pull, but as matters look
now, If he does not resign, tho Governor
ought to suspend him from his office, for

The question Is often asked how it Is
that our pollco captains grow rich i
twenty five hundred dollars a year. Up to
tho time of their promotion they were all
poor men, but they aro not captains a long
time before they blossom oat like Solomon
In ell his glory. I know one captain who
takes the air on Harlem Lane eyery after
toon when ho Is not on duty, and the pal;
of trotters that he sits behind would mort
gage five years of his salary. The secret
was partially explained to me by the keep-
er of a saloon, on tho Eighth Ayenue, wh
was one of tho sufferers. "Why," said
he, "you can do nothing with the poll
without money. We saloonkeepers know
all about it. There Is not one of us could
I keep open a week If the captain of the pro-
clnct got down on us. Every month regu
lar a man comes round to me, and I know
just what he wants, and begets It every
time, and no questions asked. I just
plunk down my cash, and be takes It and
walks out, and he don't give any receipt
either, and I don't ask It. -There's a hun
dred and eighty-six of us In that precinct
and all of them have to come down. Then
there are oyer twenty gambling houses
they have to comedown big, but it's worth
It, for no one disturbs me now, and as for
the gamblers, why if there is going to be
raid on them they always get a tip from
headquarters, so that nono who do tho
square thing ever get caught." Two po
lico captains wero on trial last week for
allowing gambling hells In their precincts
but they proved to the satisfaction of some
of the Commissioners that they had never
even suspected It, and so slipped througli

A complete service ofKait KxpreSs Talnl Is
now In lull operation between New Yor k, Phil

Baltimore and Ohio Railroad. Tho Keif York
outlet Is furnltked by the Central It, R. ot New

of the latter eompany at the foot ot Liberty
street, Mew York, two blocks from the Elevated
Railroad. All the trains are equipped with
handsome eoachis aad Pullman's l'arlor and
Sleeping ears. Two of the trains are oompoaed
xelualrely of Veittbaled can, but, In accord
ance with its long-avowed policy, the B. . O.
exacts no extra fare for Improved service. Ps.

of course, pay the ordinary Pullman charges,
bat no extra oharge for Limited Express service
Is Impoaedbv tke B. fc O.
The B. fc O. still continues to operate the fast

remarkable record for punctuality achieved by
these trains Indicates what tho public may ex

It Is a fact, now generally known, that tho
fastest trains In America are run on the U. Il O.

There are eight trains In the schedule of 24 each
