That Chicago should have bad taxicabs or bad chauffeurs is ead enough. Still, Chicago is young. Chicago is not “cosmopolitan.” That the great metropolis of New York should not have a eystem of cheap, safe, comfortable taxicabs, driven by carefully licensed chauffeure—a system as good as any city on earth—is a ecandalous shame and anomaly!
