SYSTEM ALMOST A FAILURE Sayi Legislature Should Not Havw Authority Over Docks, Sewers, Hospitals, or Public Buildings. WANT THE OLD TRAFFIC PLAN Merchants Will Urg a Law Amendment Restoring the Former System.

Th Merchants Association of New York baa drafted an amendment designed to exempt the Traffic Squad from the restrictive operations of the-three-platoon law, which th present Xegislatur wrots on the statute books before its adjournment. The proposed amendment has the approval of Police Commissioner Waldo, and It Is believed that It wLl be sanctioned by the city administration, but whether It will be delivered at Albany In time to be passed by the Legislature at the present sitting Is another Question. It has been shown, however, that the Traffic Squad could be handled with a little more efficiency under the old arrangement, and the plan of the amendment Is merely a return to that arrangement. As It existed before the three-platoon law went Into effect It was a highly specialized department of the police service, and Its duties differed from those of ordinary patrol duty, particularly in knuvfl ft tfriA a houses or Worth, Drecoll, and Paquln OI hours that the three-platoon law ren-may now visit their favorite modistes ders fixed.

10. A vigorous plea for ri emancipation of American cities from ti control of State Governments was waK0 oi $04 a week working by the piece tide to-day at the International Mu- jjdpil Congress by Gov. John A. Dlx of y.w fork, whose paper on Home Rule loir Cities was read by Charles Logue, CUirmsn of the Boston School House Gov. Dlx's paper is in part as follows: -Tills gathering of executives is a most seoursglng sign.

It must, I think, be conceded that there is a basis of fact In ft general belief that city government the one glaring failure in our American system. The efficiency and strength at our National Government Is beyond euaitlon. It is admitted that our system It State government has vindicated Itself; but nobody can deny that in the administration of municipal affairs through the agency of municipal government there is Ruch to be desired. -Whatever of failure there may be-is tut to the refusal of the people to apply to tns government of cities the fullest neuure of the democratic principle of self-government, or home rule. The Nation Is supreme within its own domain, as tbs State.

But the city is the serf of tb State. Instead of a self-governing community the American city is an aggregation of people that In fact art the aubjects and the victims of a legislative power outside themselves and greater itan themselves. "There can bs no right solution of the problem of city government until it Is admitted that the city has an Inherent light to be endowed with adequate authority that can be exercised without Interference from any quarter to satisfy tha rights and meet the needs of the people within the municipality. Local nit-government should be as clearly and stflnltely established as titate govern ment or as the rights of the Nation within in lines of the Federal constitution. "We have Incomoetence In City Couiv ells.

We have police forces that are demoralized, and city departments and bureaus that are inefficient. How can It a otherwise when the city Is treated as dependency to be controlled and gov trned in Its vital affairs by an outside lawmaking body that can possess little knowledge of Its needs and Is often care- teas of Its rights and Its Interests? The Legislature of New York State Bis enacted a law which automatically gives a charter to a city of the second class, and there Is being prepared for In troduction at the next session of the in January. a similar law affecting cities of the third class, so that any village having the required number of Inhabitants to De a city of the third class may receive a charter uniform with ether cities of that class, wherein Is dele' gated to the people all necessary author Ity to conduct its municipal affairs en tirely on the "home rule principle, env bodying unequivocally the principle that the people shall have the right to spend their own money as they find necessary lor the needs of their community, without dictation from any higher authority than themselves. This will relieve the Legislature of tpeclal enactments for the flushing of treeis. the construction of docks, author lung firemen's conventions, providing minis xor tne maintenance ot a nospnai.

empowering the city to issue bonds to Peve streets, construct sewers, purchase or puoitc buildings, the regulation of sal sries of officials, and other matters which eem entirely unwise for a Legislature saving representatives rrom every section of the State to attempt to regulate, thereby diverting Its attention from broad principles to devote its time to the consld ration ot purelv local matters."

McCABE'S TENTH VICTORY.

Retains the Democratic Leadership of Albany at the Primaries. Sftctal to Tht Nrw York Timtt. ALBAXY, Sept. 19. State Committee-Kan Patrick E.

McCabe mad a better sowing at to-day's primaries than a year ago, and for, the tenth time won In the Democratic fight for three years be has had Robert E. nalen as his opponent, and In two-thlrda the towns and wards to-day there JJre stiff conflicts. By agreement the Conoea wards paired, thus avoiding any ontesta. In Albany City Mr. McCabe jsrrled fifteen of the nineteen -wards, and they have made from to $100 a week during the busy seasons.

Moet of them were Imported from the famous dressmaking shops of London and Paris. hy they should be reduced In pay to the level of the mediocre men in the trade the employers could not comprehend, but they let the union demand go on that score since these men had seen fit to go out with their union companions ana stanu with them for the leveling of pay. These rflt mad ft nrotests in the union meetings against any reduction in pay. They did not want to ratify the agreement drawn up lor tnem oy tneir leauers, oui they were howled down. Th emnlovers.

who were made aware of this, anticipate that one of the first com plaints that win prooaDiy so permanent arbitration board will be the plaint of these artists who will cling to their piecework plan. Several of the larger employers said they would make no protest against the restoration of the former wage seal iornese sauieu men. Here are the terms of the agreement as finally settled In an all night conference ending at daylight yesterday and ratified at a series of mass meetings held in the afternoon: On sanitary conditions, a permanent Sanitary Board, composed of delegate from both side and outside experts, shall have power to tuna compulsory orders binding on the employers objected to, the board being organized on the lines followed In the cloak and suit Industry sines its strike of last year. On grievances, a permanent Grievance gourd la to settle all matters capable of easy adjustment, those on. which there Is a serious difference being appealable to a permanent Arbitration Board, Hours oKlabor are to be limited to fifty per week.

Instead of fifty-two hours as under the present arrangement. The right to dlecharge la to rest abooiufely with the employers, which is a concession from the present plan. Piecework Is to be abandoned In favor ot week work with a minimum wage scale of f24 per week. Sundays and holidays are te be allowed to the workers, but the question as to whether they shall receive pay for these days is to be arbitrated. Pay for overtime la to be fixed by the Arbitration Board, the employers offering 40 per cent, additional, and the employee demanding loo per cent, additional, with no home work and naovertime work after 8:30 P.

M. There was little disappointment on either side over the terms of the peace settlement. The employes consider It a victory, and the employers declare it only puts on paper the concessions which the employes of the better shops have en-Joyed for a long time. Both sides are gratified that the season work may now be done on terms that will ellml nate the possibility of driving the trade away from New York. It was stated that the permanent ar- rv.tration hoard win tie chosen from men of the type of Louis Brandies, Louis Mar shall, and Hamilton Holt, while the ex perls of the board on sanitary control will be-selected bv Julius Htnry Cohen, counsel for the employers, and Meyer London, counsel ror the employes.

There will be on the board also two members to be nominated by the union and two by the employers. CHAMPiON FOR DR. DOTY. Journal of Medicine Says Health Offi cer Is Being Hounded by Politicians. The New York State Journal of Medi cine has this to say editorially relative to the Investigation of Dr.

Alvah H. Doty's administration as Health Officer of the Port of New York Shall our own Empire State lag In the rear when there Is so much good hunting abroad? Perish the thought, and so the pack are In full cry at the heels of the chief sanitary officer of the Port of New York, whose sins are many and must be investigated. His' chief offense, to be sure, consists in the fact that he draws a salary and earns It. Somebody else wants it. Therefore nail bis skin to the barn door.

But the regulation of traffic does not call for attention during the entire twenty-four, and to divide the traffic men Into three shi is is to provide for one 6h.f ith no traffic work to do.

Bo every week one-third of the Traffic Squad is ordinary patrol duty, and this their concentration on the traffic work has made it necessary to draw other men from the rest of the force to help out. Under the old arrangement the men worked ten hours, but they had an hour off for luncheen and had their nights to themselves, 'and, for the most part, their Hundava. This lent a distinction, a comfort, to their lives, but they lose all that under the three-platoon law, and in having to work eight hours at a stretcn there can be no interruption for luncheon. As at present administered, the aauad In Manhattan Is assigned in groups to eight precincts. In each precinct, each week, the quota of traffic 'men is divided Into three groups, two of which do traffic duty, with the other on ordinary patrol.

"However, a few politicians know better, or, rather, don't care anything about the merits of the case nor the people's health. They want the Job and the cash. So a faithful and competent public servant la heckled snd harried at a time whrn he la straining every nerve In the discharge of a difficult and dangerous duty.

Father of Kidnapped Boy Gives One Explanation, Police Another. Vincents Sabella, Importer of 869 Broome Street, whose young son. his namesake, disappeared two months ago, Is the victim of an the police believe, was perpetrated by kidnap pers. Sabella was severely beaten on Mon day afternoon In the shop of John Gra- mentt, otnj East Fourteenth Street, by three men. Sabella enys he went to the shop- to collect a bill, and was talking with Mrs.

Gramenti when the three men One hit him with a club, and another struck him over the head with the butt of a revolver. They turned his noi-ktta Inside out. and were trying to extricate a roll of bills from his hip pocket when Mrs. Gramentl's screams drove them away. Sabelia raid that the roll contained SiUO.

iioth he and Mrs. Garment! declare that they can give no description or the assailants, baoena is in Bcllevue Hospital with several cuts on his bead, lie said he believed the attack was due to the fact that the robbers knew bis habit of carrying sums of monev. The police version of tha affair Is that babelia was in tne neignoornooa to Keep an appointment with the kidnappers oi his son. Sabella communicated with' the iHllce when tne bov first disappeared, but became disgusted when they obtained no clue and ordered them to keep away from him. The police sav that they have Informs tlim that Sabella axreed to pay the kid nappers ln three installments.

They say he paid $1,700 a few weeks ago, and went on sionaay xo pay anotner at. mo. Their theory is that ho had some dis agreement with the men he met and that this explains the attack and Isabella's failure to give a description of his assail ants. An opportuntly to try out a new araoke protector came early yesterday morning when a little blase started 'in a cellar at t'2 West Houston Street, and with it a new automobile hose wagon, which had Just been installed In Engine Company 20, in Lalayette Street, also waa let ted. The smoke defier was Invented by James D.

lialioran of Engine Company 2.1, now temporarily attached to Engine Company it consists of a iengta.of garden hose, reinforced by spiral wire. and is stretched from the street with the lire hose. The outside end ot this small hose contains a screen to prevent foreign objects from being sucked Into it while in use. The other end Is held by rubber attachments, close to the nozzle of the fire hose. Attached to the inside of the small hose are several small tubes leading to a device resembling tue nose guard used by football players.

It fits securely over the nose, and is held ln position by the press ure of the teeth. The operation depends on a simple principle of physics. The high pressure of the stream as It leaves the nozzle of the fire hose creates a temporary vacuum at that point and fresh air from the outside Is drawn ln through the garden hose to fill it. This air is carried immediately to the nose of the fireman through the little tubes bavingtneir or igin in the end of the small hose, supply ing hun witn fresn air, no matter bow smoke-filled tno room may be. Battalion Chief Helm witnessed the test.

which was made by Capt Blggers and if iieaien saunders and McGratu. They saying that though the cellar was filled with smoke they experienced no difficulty ln breathing. Fire Commissioner Johnson, it is said, has assured Mr. Hailoran that lr luriher experiments prove the lnven Hon a success it will be adopted through' out the city. Mr.

Hailoran will be kept with Engine Company 20 for some time yet. because the district covered by that company is proauctive oi cellar nres, whicn lend themselves particularly to ex periments with the helmet. Cellar fires are usually smoky, and on that account difficult to fight. Halloran's invention was something of a surprise to his fellow-firemen. For months he had been working on something, but iney couia not guess What.

Me would shut himself up in his locker room durin much oi his leisure time, and tinker an draw, but lust what he was doing no one could learn. Some of his colleagues thought he must be studying: to take the examination lor Assistant Foreman, and the mass of papers about his room was supposed to represent his work on possible examination problems. But Hailoran, while not distrusting his associates, thought he had Kood reason to be secretive. This was not the first time he had dabbled in inventions. Twice before he had worked out useful devices and had had the ideas stolen from him before he could patent them.

He tnought to stay the slaughter of rural visitors who insist on blowing out the gas, and invented a little apparatus, the prongs of which remained apart while the gas burned, but -came together if the light went out without being turned off and caused a relighting the gas. Before necoming a fireman ne worked with tne Kdison Company and with a gas company. VS'hile with the latter he devised a method of preventing his company from being cheated on the twenty-live-cent metres. tteiore talking about his present Invention, Hailoran saw that he had the full rotectlon of the united States Patent fflce. It is said, however, that when he applied for a patent he learned that a toreigner, a rencn or an Austian count, ne doesn know which, had invented a somewhat similar device about forty years ago.

This, however, depended for Its supply of fresn air on that in- mediate ly ahead of The stream of water in the hose, while Halloran's draws from the whole out-of-doors. Various smoke helmets have been In vented, but firemen sav thev were lnri' practlcarle, being heavy, complicated, and in some instances covering the entire face. Those who tried Halloran's Invention sav it win relieve much punishment which firemen have suffered from "smoke- eating." OBJECT TO ROWDY PORTERS Travelers Protest Against Them and Cab Drivers at Pennsylvania Station, The activities of the public porters, cab drivers, and expressmen operating on the curb around the new Pennsylvania Sta tlon have become so offensive to travelers that complaints of their conduct are pour lng In on the railroad officials. So nu merous have these complaints become that the railroad company has posted filacards ln conspicuous places warning Is patrons that It will not be responsible for the actions of or charges made by these Individuals, who are entirely beyond Its jurisdiction. These free lances are not allowed to solicit business ln the station, but as matter of policy public porters who have been engaged elsewhere are allowed to escort patrons as far as the train gates, althoueh under no conditions may they pass through.

The railroad maintains a large force of porters, readily distinguished by their uniforms, to meet the requirements of the public. These porters are under the direct Jurisdiction of the corporation, and their actions are ln marked contrast to those of the publio porters. 0,000 SUFFRAGE PARADERS.
