THE WORLD: THURSDAY Bb hac A "| MAYOR LOW OUT AGAINST ThE STREET GHA GILL, *We Have Had One Huckleberry Road Scandal,” Avother ’---How He Says, “and Don’t Want Politicians Are Working the Game, + Mayor Low to-day declared that the “street railway grab” bills at Albany @houla meet with the most determined opposition of every citizen of New York “who cares for the good name and wel- fare of the city.” ‘Thanks. the Mayor says, are due to the newspapers for the “splendid sup- port they have given.” The Mayor be- Moves the proposed legislation was ®rompted in the interests of tho Union railway of the Bronx, which has beea ckering for months over a proposed anchise before the Board of Hstimate _ &nd_ Apportionment. “We have had one Huckleberry road @candal,” said the Mayor, “and don't Want another.” Drawn by Master Hand, The Mayor continues: <"Every one of these bills was drawn by a masterhand, with the evident pur- pose of reviving street railroad rights that had expired or had become, in one Way or another, value‘ess. Senator Goodsell’s willingness to omit from the scope of his bill the Borough of Man- Rattan convinces me that these were intended to apply to the Union allway Company in the Borough of the Bronx. “Tt was evidently felt to be too hazard- us to present at first a single bill for ‘the accomplishment of the desired object, Jest the meaning of it should be {m- mediately recognized, Genator Goodsell, a Republican from Orange County, was therefore called upon to introduce a Dill that would do a part of the work. Sena- for L'Hommedieu, a Republican, of Niagara County, introduced another, and Senator Grady, a Tammany Hall Demo- erat from this city, introduced st:ll an- Other, Senator Goodsell's bill and Sena- tor Grady’s bill have been in effect united fn a new bill, just Introduced by Sena- tor Wilcox, a Republican, of Cayuga County, but the original bills have not Been abandoned. ‘Wants to Expose the Scheme, “My present purpose 1s accomplished fn acquainting the people of the city and of the State with my belief, which I conctive to be wellfounded, that these measures are Intended to give to the Union Railway Company, without pay- ment, privileges which they have for- felted or which have lapsed. and which, Under the present charter of the city oo laws of the State, they can only wwain by paying for them what. they @re worth. “I think it not unlikely also that these ‘amendments are intended, in some way, to warm into life the incomplete fran- ehise of the People’s Traction Company, which received the conditional oonsent of the municipal authorities of New York on or about July 1, 1895. “The very unfrankness with which these matters have been brought for- ward in the Legislature, and the pre- tense that they affect only other citles in other parts of the State, are enough to condemn them, and especiaily when {t is known that the counsel of the Motropolltan Street Railway Company, which. with the Union Railway < isa part of the Interurban sys tom, "has been in Albany repeatedly in the, interest of these measures. “Senator L'Hommedieu's bill extends from Dec. 31, 1903, to Dec. 31, 1908, tain consents” that. presumably Cease to be effective without this exton- sion, Senator Foley's bill, No, 803, da- prives the individual passenger of his right of redress tor the failure to re- ceive a transfer, and throws upon wie Attorne; 1e duty of bringing actions in such cases. Cadin's bit attempts to permit a. rall- road, whlch has not been able to obtain a complete consent, to Sinan. that part of its road for which it has been avle to obtain a consent; in other words, It proposes to break tip routes into frag- ments, at the pleasure of the railroad company. AU Should Join tn Fight. “I call_upon every public-spirited or- ganization in the city, and upon every pubdlic-spirited citizen’ to communicate without delay with their Senators and Assemblymen, protesting against the passage of these bills, “Not one of them tn In the public nterest, Evers single bill lets down wome bar which his been erected elther by the amendments to the State Constitution, passed in 1874, or by the general railroad Jaw— for the protection >f the public in- terest, I hope that letters and tele- rams and protests of every kind will deluge the Senate and the Au- sembly antil those bills are killed beyond resarrection. “My Angry, into this subject has led me to the discovery that the Union Railway Company has wey been at work before this in the endeavor to secure by indirection what it cannot secure openly. Wil Send His Own Bills. “I have already said that I hope the pending bills will be defeated; put I do not intend to stop there. I pro- pose to fend to Mr, Whitman, the city’s representative at Albany, an act to fepeal Chapter 608 of the laws of 1901, 20 as to compel these companies to again come under the salutary pro- visions of the General Rallroad Law, ax originally passed.

William Vanderbilt Kissam, a nephew of the late William H. Vanderbilt and a decade ago one of the most popular young men In the McAllister ‘400," did not appear in the First Precinct Court in Newark to-day to answer a charge of fourishing @ revolver in a drug store at Market and Mulberry street Tues- day night. Mr, Kissam, who {s thirty-seven yeara old, was arrested on Tuesday night, and as he was unable to answer questions he was locked up in a coll. Early in the morning friends secured his release, and he was taken to his home at No, /$ Mount Pleasant avenue, Newark. At the time set for his ar- raignment to-day word was gent to the police station that he was too ill to ap- pear. Probably few young men with such brilliant prospects as those mapped out for young Kissam by his millionaire relatives and friends have failed ao ut- terly and pursued such an unenviable career, Educated at Harvard, he took the place that was awaiting him in the best soctal circles in this city.

Aside from the imported models, our collection of which is as representative and com- prehensive as you will find anywhere, we have idealized copies of French hats, tastefully trimmed with flowers and laces, for which we would be justified in asking a third more than they will cost you—$12.50 to $25.00. Our designers have also expressed their cleverness in exquisite hats which cost but $10.50. Gloves for Women. Whatever may be said of the superiority of American products, gloves are certainly not one of them. After a critical analysis of the leathers and finish of gloves made both in this country and in Europe, we were reluctantly compelled to admit that the foreign glove finishers are far ahead of home talent, both in the cutting and finishing of gloves. To provide the best efforts of all the glove makers of Europe, we, have chosen the one glove of each which was to our mind the highest expression of the craft. Under the name of the Gracia at $1.00, the Patricia at $1.50, and the Maxine at $2.00, you may have them in the Spring shades to match your costume. — Eee 3, 1803.
