Park Commissioner Herrman revoxed its franchise and the Supreme Court has denied the company’s motion for an injnnction to, restrain the Park Comavssioner” ‘The reason for the Park Com- missioner’s act was that the swan boats were nat safely operated and that a girl was recently drowned. | By this action the market value of the swan boat franchise is de-| —Stroyed.

Yet the court holds that the Commissio: xt he acted for the public welfare is and that his tis official rights was proper. Evidently the swan boat company had no standing in Wall Street. Mts stock and bonds do not appear in the’stock ticker quotations. It “never merged itself or constituted a holding company out of its officials -or issued collateral bonds. It is even doubtfal if a single life insurance company has invested a penny in it, It has never been syndicated. No great banking firm handled its promotion. ; Obviously this swan boat company lacked the essentiat require=|- ———-ments_to_secure an injunction and have a referee appointed to take _ _ testimony. _ Were it not for the swan boat company’s failure to adopt Wall Street methods it would have a much more sound legal footing than the Consolidated Gas Company, for instance. The Consolidated Company’s franchise expired some time ago. It is only a hold-over, subject to ejec- tion at will. The swan boat company had an undispuied, live franchise. Tts one accident is not a tenth as bad as what the B. R. T. did when its motorman pushed Fannie Rodinsky off the bridge over Coney Island Creek, or what the Metropolitan or the Intefborough does every day. Not one of thé swan boat company’s employees, but a stranger, caused the accident which resulted in its franchise being taken away. , The swan boat company evidently failed to cultivate.a pull.

This is not half as ex- = treme: as avhat- the -ParkCommis- sioner did to the swan boat com- pany.” The Corporation Counsel ; — did not propose to cancel or revoke any existing franchises. His action would not impair the value of the real investment. At the most it would “have resulted only in doing justice between the people and the public ‘service corporations. : ‘Corporation Counsel Ellisors committed the great sin of attacking high finance, of fighting half a billion-dollar capitalization, He actually = uindertook ‘to do what his oath of office required that he should do.
