Ask Mrs. Josephine Schmid, owner of more than fifty saloons and known as New York's “Brewery Queen,” who is about to buy out the Interests of her partners, Max E. und Simon E.

Since her husband's Geath, fourteen years ago, when ehe as- gumed an active part in the manage- ment of her property, she has been at dds with her business partners, One @ause of disagreement, sho has stated 4m court, was that she wanted better beer brewed, and only malt and hops weed in its manufacture. i ‘Will Brew Pure Beer, ‘When Mrs, Schmid s in sole control ot her brewery she will be at Uberty to earry out her ideas of brewing, and May ada to her wealth and fame by ‘aha @ beer that will add to New fork’s fame, Gince the death of her husband Mrs. Bchmid has béen almost continuously In Utigation with her dusiness partners. ‘They claimed that the real estate of the brewery was the joint property of the @opartnership. She held that she was the holder of one-half of it outright. This led to the Bernheimers applying for a receiver for the company. John M. Bowers, the well-known attorney, jwas so named by the Supreme Court. Mrs. Schmid finally won her case and her partners are now willing to dispose of their interests to her.

Municipal ownership got another boost to-day when the Sinking Fund Comm|s- sioners, the Mayor presiding, adopted a resolution contemplating the acquist- tion and control of the Staten Island ferry by the city. This will be great news to the thousands of Staten Island residents and the pubic generally, who for years have been compelled to en- dure the wretched travelling facilities furnished by the present ferry system. Incidentally the newly elected Chair- an of the Finance Committee, John McCall, the Tammany leader in the Aldermanic Beard, and a member of the Sinking Fund Commission, effected the muntelpal ownership proposition at the meeting to-day.
