That the thermometer will soon spell a story of death and disease or of health for the millions of people who must spend next summer in this city, was admitted today as the result of recent investigation into the possibilities oi' a future famine in ice. With a shortage of 2,000,000 ton3 of Hudson river ice staring them in ther face, the harvesters of tliis frozen croo now declare that zero weather for at least one week and freezing temperature for five is required to brln? the city supply anywhere near normal.

If the fickle mercury does not stick steadily to its lowest notches through the month of March, it has already Deen demonstrated by the experts that the hot spells summer will see sickness and suffering izi the slums here that may ravage the town from end to end. Work Wealthy. Declaring that the Thaw bribery charges at Albany are only a surface indication of a vast underground railway to release rich prisoners from state institutions, newspaper men who have followed the back door trails of court buildings and law offices here are now whispering of a "system" at work in such cases, any exposure of which would shock the town. Scores of shyster lawyers, political pullers of wire and official hangers on are reported to be organized here to systematically bunco wealthy friends of prison and asylum inmates with boasts of their powers of delivery. For six years there has been no end of talk of hundreds of efforts to liberate Harry Thaw, though no one has been able top rove that it amounted to anything beyond sensational gossip.

Rockefeller Roused. For a 50 foct strip of land running from his back yard to Fifth avenue, John D. Rockefeller just paid $1,250,000, whhfi is now recorded as the most expensive single stab at business encroachment ever made for this rapidly fading residential district. While Harry Whitney, Tom Ryan and scores of multimillionaires have finally fled uptown before the steady and uowerful march of business building up to this end of Fifth avenue, the Oil King has apparently determined to stand his ground for a while at least. Within 10 years it is predicted that it will cost the Rockefellers many millions more to keep their residences from being completely engulfed by commercial structures.
