"I was brought up In commercial
houses and know that a first principle
t huslness men confronted with sinking
more money in a losing veniure in io
t out quickly, pocket tho loss and try
to forget It. Theoretically, a city ad
ministration might adopt the samo prin
ciple. Practically It Is difficult. In .1
tnershln this could be dono
and It would be nobody s concern ex-
cept the partners. In the case of a I
city everybody Is concerned. It might
be Impossible to make many of "the cltl-
lens understand that' the administration
was doing the nest ining unuer me cir
cumstances If It pocketed a loss of scv
tral million dollars.
'That's only one consmeraiion. mere
! also the legal question. I think Mr.
McAneny goes too far In saying that
the whole $17,000,000 expense of the
court house and site' Is mandatory
under an act of the legislature. The
Hoard of Kstlmate did select the orig
inal site under n law of 1911. which
authorized the court house board to do
the selecting If the estimate board did
not do so within six mourns.
I!ut In that act there was not n word 1
m to what the cost of the building or
site should be. As I have sam ueiore,
the city under that act could buy a site
to coat not more than $2,000,000 nnd
construct a building to cost not more
than $4,000,000. The financial obligation
was left entirely to the city's discretion.
Whatever the cot mny be the city gov
ernment alone Is responsible for It.
"However, on May fi the city through
the Hoard of Estimate took title to the
additional land to bo used for the Court
House site. Such an act Is Irrevocable
except on grounds of fraud. The Esti
mate Hoard cannot rescind Its action.
The city cannot compel the sellers of
this land to take It back. Therefore the
only possibility If we decided to abandon
the whole project would be to put the
property In the market nnd sell It at tho
first favorable opportunity."
Depends nn Legislature.
Mr. McAneny says this cannot be
done without nn act of the Legislature.
As he construes the law of 1911, tho
rite must be used for a Court House and
cannot be used otherwise or sold. Un
doubtedly the Legislature would rescind
this mandate next year If the city gov
ernment asked It to do so, but. argued
Mr. McAneny, that would mean another
year of loss, with Interest chnrges
mounting at the rate of $(100 a day.
He has asked Corporation Counsel Polk
for an opinion. He believes It will con
firm his own belief that tho Court House
must be built unless tho Legislature
votes otherwise.
Mr. O'Mallcy told the Comptroller
yesterday that tho silo could not be
sold now even If tho city would and
could do It. In the last fow years the

heard of any negotiations of such con
sequence. The Carranza people seem hopeful
largely because of the Imminent arrival
of Charles A. Douglas, Carranxa'a
Washington attorney, nt Vera Crux.
Douglas Is expected to do his utmost
to convince Carranza of the wisdom of
conceding a point here and there for tho
sake of gaining the good favor of the
United States.
All of Carranxa's advisers are In
favor of making some concessions In
order that the Washington Government
may not be able to place on the Klrst
Chief the onus of continuing the present
strife and Intolerable conditions In Mex
ico. The Villa agency and Oen. Angeles
repudiated the effort made by two mem

"Previous to this time he had offered
me $2,000 to help In getting hl.i fnther-ln-law

me to his oltlcc In the Union Trust
Hulldliig nbout a week or so before he
went to Pittsburg and asked me If I
Intended going with hint and Mcllenry
, to put old man Schneider out of fhe
way."
"Did ho broach the putting of Mr.
Schneider out of the way In a matter
of fact manner?' Howers was asked.
He was so matter of. fact that I
I thought for
wh.e he was Jesting."
' said Howers,
"He nsked me If I wanted to make
some money. He knew I wns out of
uork and thought probably 1 would do
anything to get 1.01110 money.
"I had told him I was hard up. Mc

"When I nsked Forney what he
wanted mo to do he told me he wanted
me to put .1 man out of tho way. I
told him I didn't want to be mixed up
In anything like that. Then he arid
MoIIcnry laughed, and Forney remarked
that I shouldn't be chicken hearted. For
ney told me later that tho man ho
wanted out of the way was his father-in-law,
Mr. Schneider."
Powers raid tho conversation In ref.
erenen to going to Pittsburg took place
In Forney's ofllce nbout a week before
he nRiiilt upon Mr. Schneider In the
Pittsburg hotel. He continued :
" Well, are you going to Pittsburg
with us to carry out this Job? For-

me I mustn't mcntUm anything about
what he had ssld to me nnd led mc
to believe thnt he nnd Mcllenry
going to put their plans to kill

Mr.
Schneider Into effect.
"Hoally, I have thought all along the:

The flexibility of
the Equitable floors
By flexibility, we refer to the manipulative char
acter of the Equitable floors, due to the absence
of catacorners and waste spaces, making it easy
to measure off just what each tenant requires,
without burdening him with excess space and
excess rent therefor.
The net result is7that you can locate in any part
of the Equitable which you may choose; and
you may lease just as much space in the Equita
ble as the nature of your business requires; and
we will build your quarters around you, so that
your accommodations will be in evey sense of
the word a perfect fit.
What is even more to the point, the rental cost
is as reasonable as close figuring can make it.
