Tbo sole responsibility to tba people for hi or their conduct rest with him, as prop-arty It should A single execntlvo bead direct the affair of thia great Government, and ta nlone responsible for the management and the administrative welfare of tba country.

Tbo experience of human affair I tbat when responsibility ia narrowed and Scad upon one person or ageaey taa right ot ua people are oeet ooa-aerved. Thee generalisations apply In my view with gpeolal fore In respect to tbo ofBeo and dutlea of Surrogat. A burro rate la oaa who stands In tha plaoa of aaothar. He reproaent a dead man. It I hi solemn duty to admin Is tar tha aetata, with dna regard to tna law, aa the dead man wished It to bo administered.

Tha Surrogate's Court la act apart from all courts. It la not restricted to tbo hard form and riaid tech a trail tie of tbo eommoa-law court. Tbo evert Ue of tba common law do not hedge It about It la essentially a eonrt of equity, and In a larger and serious aena Ita funeUona are morally great. I nee this designation deliberately, for the Hurt-orate' Court Ia tba anooeaaor or the aid Kocjoaiaaucai The surrogate of thl county la tha hardest-worked maaiatrat In tha world. Thl I know not alone from my own observation, bat from tbo opinions of others who are qualified to radge.

1 was talking with Justice Barrett about It lie aald tbat ho never re allied how great thla work waa nntll ha had looked Into the operation ot almllar court in Europe. Tba Burro- Cata baa mora work to do that la purely Judicial aaa aay other two magistrate in thia city. In bl Judtotal capacity ha ha to Paaa upon aa averare of 150 wtlts per month. At oae time la the prreeat year the Bomber ran uptoSOQ. In aonto of theaa eases, there being no oonteat or Cjueat lon.be needs only to re view the work of the Kobato clerk, but In no ease are bl dutlea erely perfunctory.

It la not enough for him to sir a his nam to a paper handed to htm. Ha must know what tbo paper oontalai and must eee that It contains It properly. In caiss of eon teat all the testimony most be brought to his notice. Ha most hear It In per-- bob er must review lt Ha must hear and paaa upon all motion. They averaKa from TO to (K per week.

July 15, which waa a motion day, there warn 77 mottoas. although it waa In tbo 'vacatloa season. My practice haa been to eon-duet all proceeding In person whenever It waa poaalbw. In proceeding mainly Judicial 1 have eadeavored to eonflna teettmoay to proof ot tba teetaraeatarr capacity of the testator waa he capable of disposing by will ot bta aetata, did he de It freely and without undue iafloeaoe, and waa it done In oonformlty with law! Taoee are the vital qnestloas nlway. and by connnlng testimony to those laauea I presume I have oaraed a repuutloa aa a stem, braaqua, ever maglstrato.

One man' advice, If hobo a friend, will change her mind about what some oa elae may have adnaed her a few hour before. All thle add to tbo Kurrorate's labor. Ho most stralrhtea matter oat aa the dead man would have done.

Then the revision of account and the adjustment ef ebarres the fiarrogate'a duty, and It la tbo moat nagging, nerre-deetroylng task to which hiewbenuBeaa aaaienn bias. A fMirrogato snen become distrustful of human nature. The a) tng that niurder will enit ta all wrong. It haa to be hunted. There are lawyer nnt rltenta before me every dar who are natural thieves.

Kvery proceeding brought la pending ease entitle these In cbarr or nn estate to stipulated ootopansatlon. The devlcea which tnen will emnlor to Bk-h BOO or BIO orBdnr even 92.SO out ef an estate In excess of honeat allowatiee are amazing. I require all ebargea of thla kind to be accompanied by affidavits explaining service and slating the time apant upontaeea. In ptt of that precaution, which baa contributed to my unpopularity, I hare to ran my pen through account every time I take a batb to examine. Thla mean that ia my opinion a large proportion of administrators, executor, trustee, and lawyers eurht to he In Jail for perjury Instead ef enjoying freedom aa the eustav dlaas of estates.

There are people whose aa-eooata alwaya paaa, who are not always aeeking proceeding for the purpose of heaping np false ana nxvoruouaie caarge against neipiea estate, but theao people are In very small minority. I bare not prosecuted any ease of perjury because I have no time for such bust-nee, but I am morally certain of their abundance and I feel rrstl tied tbat the system of polio Inspection: which 1 bare originated baa contributed somewhat toward lessening an evil which once waa glaring and widespread. A a te tbo work of tbo eommlttec la rerard to the BaiTogate'a office. I ata not convinced that a chance in the Coaatitntloa la neceaaary. Posl-bly the statutes might provide all needed relief if they were amended In certain particulars.

The meaning of the statute at present seems to he questioned. I have before me now a report ot a reference. For six hours I have been going over thla testimony. In that time I mlrbt have beard the case disposed of it. The question la raised here that the referee had no rirht under the law to reject certain testimony tbat waa offered to him.

The lew provides that the Surrogate may deputize aonie one to take legal testimony for hun. In my view, authority to take legal testimony implied the right to Judge whether or not testimony may be admissible under legal rule. If that statute 1 obscure. It should made perfectly clear. I sent to Albany last Winter drart ef hill providing' that the Surrogate might appoint one or more official referees or deputies, with full power to take testimony In case assigned for referene.

and whose finding should carry the same weight as the Hurrogato'a. The bill passed tbo Assembly all right, but In the Senate It waa obstructed by a young man from this city whose idea of statesmanship waa that the bill onrut to be defeated because It would (Ire the Surrogate little more patronage. I At preaeut the Burrogate can assign cased to referees, who become for the time assistant Hurrogate. They can take testimony and report back, but the Surrogate jiaa to go over their work if either side com plains. It Is an unset la-factory system and It fall utterly to lighten tbe Murrocate' burdens.

It la also provocative of delay and expense. People complain ot the law delay. The delay it anally with the lawyers, who can work but will not I am nearly always reluctant to send case to a reference, for tbe reasons stated. I should be still mora reluctant it tbe referee were not under my control. If tha Surrogate could deputize some one with authority to rule and to make conclusive findings, such assignment to be revocable at the fturrogate'a pleasure, the Surrogate' responsibility would remain aa nt present and hi labor might be lessened.

A Surrogate ia empowered under the law to send ease to a Jury for trial. Whenever I have suggested such disposition of case I have encountered tbe most passionate and urgent pretests. Lawyer and clients alike have preferred to submit their cases to the Judgment of one man rather than to that of twelve. Thia may aotbemneh ot nn argument against tbe Jury ayttetn or In favor of narrowing responsibility, but It Indicates something of the disposition of people to trust to Judgment trained in matter of legal contest rather than to tbe untrained Judgment of laymen. I peak, ot course, only of caaea In tbe Surrogate's Court Speaking more generally, I have never been in love with our system of administering law.

I cannot see the neeeaaity of a General Term, except, possibly, for restricted caaea. There are too many court of appeal, and they serve together no useful purpose, while they make tbe administration of law cumbersome and expensive. A man who will appeal once will appeal higher if defeated, and If airalu defeated and hi eaae will admit of It, be will go to tbe Supreme Court ef the United State. Appeal once begun are usually oarried to tba end. If each successive higher court reverse the decision of the oae below, the appeal continues, it would go on ndleesly with tbe multiplication of eonrt, and It would the sooner terminate If the number of court were lessened.

On General Term usually tate the law and tbe Court ot Appeal affirm it There are Jew reversal. by, then, should there two trial oaappe alt bo far as several courts of appeal serve any purpose by way of dlfferencea ot legal interpretation, the (how that in human affair it la not easy to And asperate group of men able to agree entirely upon a given aubject Appeal from tbe Surrogate, I am fully oonvinoed, should be had directly to the Court of Appeals. I do not aay It for nay personal reason, becaoae no decision of mine haa ever been reversed. I My suggestion to the committee were thai provision ba made for tbe appointment by tbe Surrogate ef one or more Tic Surrogate, to be etston should carry equal weight with hla, end who abould continue in office at bl pleasure. The Surrogate would then be solely responsible for the conduct of hla omoe, providing hla own assistant and dispensing with aerricee not n' te satisfactory to him.

He alone would be bt euntrol of hi One of tbe Vice Surrogate might be assigned to chamber work and the ether might supervise the rises of work I bare designated aa police inspection. Thia would leave tbe Surrogate with general supev-vlaioB ot hi entire office and alone responsible for its management, while his time. Instead at oemg Broken ana a is tree tea ana interrupted by all tha potty details of the offioe, could be devoted mainly to purely Judicial work. Such change wonld furnish actual relief, and it would be possible to keep always abreast of tbe contested will calendar. That calendar ia now clear for the first time In twenty-five year.

After tbe adjournment of one of the sessions Appraiser Cooper piloted hla visitor to the eighth division of tbe torehoase, which embraces the sugar laboratory. Here the Inspections and analyst of sugar by mean ot the polarUcope and its classification for purpose of taxation are done with mathematical exactness. The extent and Importance of the work of Inspecting and grading sugar may be appreciated from tbe fact that the dutlea on sugar and cane product collected at thla port average from to $15,000,000 annually.

Of this somewhat less than a quarter Is collected from importations of beet ugnr from Germany, and the remainder from cane angar and molasses brought from Cuba.

It comes in hogsheads containing from l.GOO to 2,200 pounds, in tierces containing from 900 to 1.200 pounds, in basketa holding 450 to 600 pounds, in bags and barrel tbat bold about 3O0 pounds, in ceroon containing about 150 pounds, and in mats holding 60- ponnd on the average.

The First District embraces all of New-York City, Jersey City, Hohoken, tbe National Storage Docks on Black Tom Island, and Yonkers.

Of course, tbe idea I for the tter promotion of tbe practice of photography and an object In study and development of photography in itat numerous applications to art, science, and commerce, The union proposes to bold meetinr andenhibltlon in the principal cities. establish photographic club in town where there are amateurs, and establish a special department for the exchange of prints between member of the -nnlon at borne and abroad.

It I proposed tht a Council of twelve, elected by the members, ahall have charge of the affairs of the aaaoclatloii. The annual dues to be St for members of pnotographlo cluba and 5f. for unattached memhera. Amateurs In this country are also talking of forming a union of the various societies for the purpose of comparing work and methods and to procure a more representative collection of print and lantern slides nt the various exhibition in the country. Mr.

Thomas) Bola. formerly editor of the English rhofiraphie Xew, tn the July AmaUvr i-ituioorapAer, writes 01 tne thin, transparent celluloid and Its uses. Although tbe earlier experiments li the use of celluloid a a basis for tbe negative were made In Paris," say Mr. Bolaa, and the flrst result were obtained there, we gene rally look on the practical introduction of the celluloid negative a coming from tbe Kew World, and now that wa have tbe celluloid negative fb-mlv established on both aidea of the Atlantic, It ia Interesting to note bow many uaes tbe puotokrapher may make of the transparent base, nhtock of which tend to accumulate when Sim are soaked off spoiled negativea. Inscriptions ot letter may be written or printed on strip of tne celluloid film, and these may be laid between tbe negative and the printing taper bo that I tbe wording appear aa wblt ine on a grohnd more or less dark, according to the part of (the negative selected.

Similarly ttmay he used In making mask by which photograph my be made tbe basis of a Kew Year', Chriatmaa, or congratulation card. CoL Waterhooae refer to the use which may be made of the celluloid aheeta In making factitious negativea for reproduction by the various Sboto-mecbanlcal printing processes, as Indian ik eaa be worked on it with fineness and delicacy, wbetherj brush or pen is used. When matt surfaced and It celluloid can readily be roughened by friction with the purest emery powder tt will take pencil or crayon tlnta, and also tbla waihes of Indian Ink. In short, by working on a Oellulold sheet aa artist eaa obtain with ease mori variety ef effects thaa by any ordinary method of ongraving or etching, while any required number of copies may bo printed on the usual e.Ter paper or by the photo-mo ehantral procenee. If the artist prefer to make ipareney on tne celluloid Instead thia positive may be printed by methods which.

to either a long teater or a short teeter, ac cording to the aixe and character of the package, 1 taken. If a hogshead, the long tester is used; 11 a oeroon. tbe snort tester sumces. Tbe tester 1 a steel instrument HQ aped like a half segment of a tube about an inch in diam eter, with tbe lip alltrhtly turned In. It haa a circular handle, and when it Is pushed into a nogsneaa or otner pacaage 01 sugar ana given a turn and withdrawn it takes a core of sugar out of the package showing the exact quality clear through the package.

The lonr tester are hand made, and though of apparently simple niecnantam, Lncieeam na to pay apiece ior mem. The sampler 1 provided with tin can that bold about half a pound of sugar, which is Just about tne quantity a long tester win take out 01 a package, and. having taken hi sample, the sampler sticks hi thumb into the groove at the upper end of tbe tester and draw tbe tester through his clasped hand, and thus dlschargea the sugar into the tin can. The can 1 labeled to how the mark and Invoice of the sugar, and Is then covered and put In a wooden look box. of wnicn mere are lour sizes used, containing, re spectively, zo.

00, a. and iuu cans. From the time thl sample ia taken until it is classified and th classification la reported to tbe Collector-of tbe Fort and importer the ample remains In the. custody ot the sworn officer of the Government, It I carted to the Appraiser stores by a Government truckman. and delivered to tne augar olaasincatinn room.

Here all the samples of each mark, which means all the sugar of each kind inn single invoice. are turned out upon a table and mixed by hand. Then two of the tin boxes are refilled and labeled only with a aerial number, wbloh la in die ted upon tbe record which haa accompanied the sample from the dock by a blue pencil number. What remain of the angar after these two half-pound samples have been taken out is wrapped up in paper, marked with tbe owner name, and returned to him eome time after the rradlng Is completed. One of the two sample cans bearing the aerial number is now sent down to the laboratory.

To complete the safeguards for a purely aolentlSe teat the chemist and polarieeope reader are not permitted to know anything whatever about the ownership of the sugar to be graded, ita place of production, the steamer by which It wa brought to port, or the date of Its arrival. Except the aerial number there are no marks about tbe sample by which It eould be Identi fied. The second sample can I kept by th ex aminer in a cupboard under lock and key. If the grading of the sample sent down to the laboratory by tbe dumbwaiter should not appear correct, or for any other purpose a verifi cation of the test should be desired, the contents or tne second can are transferred to another can. given a blind number, and sent down to the laboratory for analysis.

By the result of thl teat the accuracy or inaccuracy of the first teat would bo suown. Tbe laboratory 1 completely walled off from tbe classification room, and the chemists are al lowed no access to the samples until they reach them by tbe dumbwaiter. To reach the laboratory from the classification or examiner' room, the visitor had to descend two flights of taira. pass tnrougn tne anteroom to tne eerie of laboratories, and through a amall hall and then up two other flights of stair. The first tbe polar! scope reader know or see of the augar tney are to analyse is wben they remove It from the dumbwaiter, with only its serial number to identify it with the records in the other part the building.

Tbe laboratory 1 urnlahed with several long table of heavy, rough wood, ran red on tnree sines 01 the room and in the middle. Vpon these repose the paraphernalia of the testa. These consist In the main of four pairs of delicately-adjusted druggist' scale In glas caaea, adjusted to the metric system of weight: several large glass water bottles, with glasa tube through the corks; soma small globular bottles with long, slender neoka, all of the standard capacity; a large number of amall glass Qlters; doxeas of glass aud brass tube of equal size, with removable brass cap at either end. in wbloh a small round glaaa Is Inserted so as to permit light to pass through the tube, and, finally, four of those wonderful instrument by which th grade of sugar ia determined the polariscopea. Tbe polariscope i shaped and mounted somewhat like a apectroMiope, with a vaeaat central section of the cylinder.

In which th tube con taining tne solution of sugar la placed when the tost is to bo made. It eonsiata of a cylinder containing several different shaped prism, arranged to focalize a ray of light on a field, with a scale at the opposite end of the cylinder arranged to indicate how near to tbe standard the llrht would approximate tn eolor. A quarts plate, fixed in one end of a amall brass cylinder, which is tested and marked at the Smithsonian Institution In Washington, to indicate how nearly destitute of color it Is, serve as the standard by which the polariscope are tested. Upon a recent inspection of tbe quarts plat aad the polarieeope, under direction of the secretary of the Treasury, they were found to correspond perfectly. Four chemist, or polariscope reader, aa tbey are called by the Appraiser, were at work in the laboratory.

They are B. W. Moore, Supervising Chemist, who occupies the place recently vacated by Edward Sherer; Robert Kigney, G. Landamann, and 8. F.

BalL There are three other enemlata in the department who are also occasionally ngaged aa polariseope reader: they are W. D. Crumble, E. J. Chapman, and J.

The politicians are waiting patiently ior Chairman Edward Murpliy of the Democratlo State Committee to Issue the call for the meeting of tbat committee, at which nn Interesting entertainment may be furnished. The Tammany men having made their silly bluff about tbe alleged movement to expel ex-Mayor William B-Grac-e and the other County Democracy member of tbe committee unless tbey would pledge themselves not to make any coalition with the Republicans in the local fight, have not had much more to say on that phase of tbe matter. but have contented themiielve with affirming that the fight would be made on the selection of a committeeman to succeed Police Commissioner "John R.

It ba been aid tbat In view of the fact that Mr. Voorhis haa estublitbed something of a Democracy of his ho might withdraw hla resignation and endeavor to remain on the committee a a representative of hi own follower. Wben asked yuateroay ir be naa any intention 01 takinir that course; Mr. Voorhis said that he certainly had not and he did not consider it good taste for him to discus tne question 01 ni successor. Inasmuch as he bud so much to do with raising that queatlon.

He was a Democrat to the core, and he believed that there was a good chance of securing a Democratlo Legislature this year ir the uemocrata would only atana firmly together all over tbe State.
