METZ NO RUBBER STAMP
Mvst Understand Ins and Outs in
Considering Franchises.
Aftvr a conferenro yostrrday afternoon ■with
Mayor MuTKlleii Oootroßer Metz said there was
no lomrer any controversy between the Mayor and
If ov<*r th« matter of handling' franchiees in
the Board of K?=timate and Apportionment. A week
fcgo Boroußli President Ahearn introduced a. reso-
lutlon referring franchises to a committee consist-
Ing of the Controller, the President of the Board
of Aldermen and th^ president of the borough in
terested. Controller Metz was in favor of th© reso
lution. Tlie operation of such a plan would decen
tralize the power of the board as a whole, and
make the Mayor a. non-participant. Senator McCar
r*n called on the Mayor on Wednesday, and Im
mediately afterward it was said by the Senator's
friends that the Controller had surrendered to the
Mayor. This angered Mr. Metz. When he was
seen yesterday at the City Hall he said:
I am no damned rubber stamp and nobody's rlork.
and nobody can make me a rubber stamp to O. K.
his wishes. There- is not one particle of politics in
this matter. Senator McCarren has made no peace
between v.i and the Mayor. There was none to
cake; there is no war. 1 have no quarrel with the
Mayor. My position is very plain. As Controller
of the city of New York I- snail not vote or act
on any Important matter where great property.in
t«-erts are involved unless I know all about It. I
eaall not take the word of any engineer, no matter
1 r.w competent. In such cases, unless I am able to
•*• and question the persons Interested and make
my own investigations as to the rights of the per
sons and the right and interest of the city.
Ab to the bureau of franchises which has been
trancierre.i to the Board of Estimate from my de
part tne- I do not ear.> whether it is or is not re
stored to the Finance Department, but I want an
lc<lep r.de:i t bureau of investigation, that I may
nave an opportunity to look into thing* myself.
and I shall sot sit like a dummy and vote on mat
ters I don't understand.
I repeat. I am no damned rubber stamp to record
another man's views. It Is true that I saw Senator
teCarren yesterday, but that has nothing to do
*Ith this matter. I insist upon my right to inveetl
(Me every matter upon which I am called upon
to vote, whether it be a proposed franchise or a
latter of seemingly little importance. That is my
position, and it is a. position from, which no man
«an cake me recede.
After his talk with the Mayor later in the day
the Controller, who was in a happier mood, said:
It's all over. There's no trouble. I got what I
«ctenfi«d for. Harry P. Nichols hereafter. Instead
«£ formulating a franchise and submitting it to
«• board in a "canned" slate, will simply submit
•Ofe-mions to the board, and the board, Bitting as
* committee of the whole, will act on the franchise
«nd afterward Instruct him to frame the franchise
xor final approval. "
The Controller had a talk with Borough Presl
*»t Ahearn over the handling of franchises. After
*» had cone, Mr. Ahearn said:
.So far as Tammany Hall or Senator McCarren
concerned, all this talk about deals over fran
g*«s Is rot- I tried six months ago to have the
2* r d of Estimate adopt a plan for framing fran
?"•*• in harmony with the resolution I Introduced
•*etk ago. Grout opposed it. As soon an we Rot
?» decision of the Court of Appeals vesting the
«*jchlse power Indisputably with the Board of
f^toate I renewed my resolution, which I believe
Jo to a good and feasible idea. I think the board

The average condition of meadow mowing lands

LAKE MEN AT WORK.
Freight Rates Uncitanged — Two
Millions and a Half Labor Loss.
Cleveland. May 10.— In compliance with the terms
of the agreement reached yesterday, the striking
longshoremen reported for work early to-day. The
work of getting up steam in the big ore hoists on
all the docks was at once begun; the boats were
lined up. hatches off, and word was sent to the
boats to the harbor to be ready to come in as soon
as the boats now inside are cleared.
All of the twenty thousand men 'who were out on
strike at the various lower lake ports returned to
work, and the task of unloading the 1.000,000 tons
of ore that had accumulated ln lAke Erie was
begun. The railroad freight crews that were laid
off were again put to work.
The strike lasted nine days, cost $3,600,000 ln dlreot
lose of money to the strikers and carriers, and tbe
men return to work on the sum basis ac last year.
Bad faith Is charged by tbe longshoremen against
the officers of the Mates' Union, in whose behalf
they struck.
Contrary to general expectation, it is not proba
ble that there will be any advance in lake freight
rates at this time as a result of the strike. Promi
nent vessel owners to-day expressed the opinion
Chat, while rates will doubtless go upward toward
fall, there will be no advance at present.
Tho same conditions exist at all lake ports.

U. S. RUBBER YEAR,
Increase in Profits — of Con
trol of Rubber Goods Company.
The report of the United States Rubber Company
for the fiscal year ended March 31. 1906. shows the
net profits for the year to have been $3,881,270. as
against $3,761,923 for the previous year. Deducting
the $276,770 dividends received on the Rubber Goods
Manufacturing? Company preferred stock held toy
the United States Rubber Company, the net earn
ings of the latter and its subsidiary companies, ex
clusive of the Rubber Goods Company, were $3,604.
500. The net sales for the year were $32,888,594. as
against $32,931,211 the previous year— a slight falling
off, due to the mildness of the winter.
In referring to the acquisition by the company of
more than 80 per cent of the capital stock of th«
Rubber Goods Manufacturing Company, the report
says, in part:
The beneficial results to both companies of this
acquisition your directors believe will be very great.
In general, both companies use the same raw ma
terials, and both have had distributing agencies In
the same centres. Consequently, savings can be
effected in the purchase of supplies and in the dis
tribution of goods, and the diversity of product
tends to equalize the volume of business and the
profits in years of varying character.
The dissolution of the Rubber Goods Manufactur
ing Company may be effected at any time by the
United States Rubber Company owning- much more
than two-thirds of its shares, but for the present
such dissolution is held In abeyance. '
