TAS ORONANE 4 At Aldermanic Hearing Com- panies Admit Can Charge Less and Make Profit. OPEN NEW STANDS. Proposed Measure Has Mayor’s \ Approval and Inquiry Shows Varying Fares. A new taxicab ordinance drawn under fayor Gaynor's eve and embodying @ features of the Nicols measure leemed worthy of enactment by Chief the Bureau of Licenses James G. ‘Wallace and his chief inspector, John Drennan, who have made a study of taxicab regulation, is to be introduced fn the Board of Aldermen next week. It Is designed to supercede the Nicols ‘Ordinance now being considered and to give the city an immediate relief from the irregularities of taxicab transpor- tation. Besides taking a firm gtip on the rate Raquestion the “official” ordinance does way with the monopoly of the tax! itands, heretofore seized and held by ‘special interest” concerns. It retains of the stands in front of hotels are housed but opens up ces and other Tender- loin resort the use of al It pro S¥ides penalties for violations, redices the rate generally in vogue at present of $1 a mile and enables the city authorities to deal rigorously with persons guilty of tampering with taxicao clocks. Chief Wamiace pointed out to-day that while there is much justice in the claim of the independents that the ‘“truet’ ©oncerns monopolize the trade, that special stands, nevertheless, have ad- vantages to families who ve tn hotels, Sach companies are responsive, he said, and few complaints are made against the service. The present rates are ob- Jectionable. “The only rate which did apply,” sald ‘My. Wallace, “was declared unconstitu- tonal by the Supreme Court, in the case of the Universal Taxicab Company egainst the Mayor. This decision wiped out for practical purposes all rates appty- ing to taxloabs and forced us to either Gieregard the subject entirely and allow the taxicab people to charge anything they pleased or to fall back on the old coach end cab rates which arbitrarily permitted an owner to charge $1’ mile seating four persone.” TAXICABS CHARGE AT. RATE. IN OF COURT RULING. ‘The rate which the Court set aside was @ cents for the first half mile and 10 coats for each additional quarter of a mile. At present nearly all taxicabs charge at rates much in excess of this figure, although it was testified yester- day by William Thiet, a member of the Independent Taxicab Owners’ Associa- tion, that sixty of his associates met May 7 last and agreed to operate their machines on the following baste: % cents for the first half mile and 10 cents for each additional quarter of « mile. Mr. Thiel and other independents plainly told the Aldermanic spectal committee comprising Bryant Willard, airman; Samuel Marks, John Bolles, R. Coleman, John J. Meaghan, Henry T. Grimm and John McCann, which have, at last, been aroused to action by pubilc clamor, that he wai Well satisfied with the self imposed reduced scale. He assured the commit- tee that even further reductions might be made if the new ordinance would @bolish the private stands. He had made good profits on his investment the reduced rates, he sald, and was sure taxicab men cowld stand the re- duction !f an open field for all was : ered. Phe Aldermen learned many things net before brought to their attention. Sizce the Micol ordi- mamce was introduced little or no headway has been made by the Board.

He sounds rather tame, this smokeless, drinkless, meatless ideal, does he not? By no means the sort of person whom we consider a conquering hero in New York. In fact, he sounds as if a professor of eugenics had invented him. Yet here is what Mrs. Kate Trimble Woolsey, au- thor of “Republics Versus Woman,” and @ profound student and advocate of eugenics, has to say about him. “You can't produce an ideal husband simply by eliminating the un- desirable habite of the mgrsculine being,” Mra. Woolsey declared. “You notice that no one docs much talking about the ideal husband, except the unmarried girl. Why? Because he is a myth.
