L. Agnew was one OF the Commissioners. is to
acquire gradually the water front and to i'm
prove it at the expense OF the city. then by
leasing tho piers to get revenue. which
should go to the City Treasury. Tho dock
property has within recent years come to be
ono among the most valuable properties in the
Yoyk er"ws III viii p' contnue % to ncra hn ns seM

in acquiring property and in the construction

are a number of these tenants Of the city's
dock property. The ones who paid tho
least the last, quarter are lsaac INTER-

S3T.5O a piece. the railroad companies pay
tho largest amounts. The French steamship
line is the only trans Atlantic steamship com

in this respect by the Pacific Mail and the
Providence and Stonington. The largest in
dividual rayment is made by c; T; Hunting

Owing to the great amount Of building in
New York. with the attendant excavations OF
earth. it is easy at the present time for the
Dock Department to get tho material to fill in
its piers up to the bukhcad line. 1t is also
easy to get large stones for use in constructing
the piers On the west side the contractors are
removing the small houses which have to Id
taken down before buildings can bo put up on
the lots. and are leyclling the lots to conform to
the street grade. Tho contractors are glad to
have place in which to dump the earth and
rocks. In the same way the Street Cleaning
Department is relieved by tho amount of ma
teria that it can dump about Manhattan Island.
There is SO much less to be carried down the

THE GAME OF PRETENCE.

Although quite sure that the An
nexation Club-which includes the
military forces-has been reduced to
I5o members, the Royalist organs
have no desire to test its strength or
that of the Government in practical
way. They confess that the voCiferouS
majority leaders who "side with the
Queen" do not intend to exert them
selves in her behalf but prefer to let
out the job to the United States This
in view of the February boasts that the
Provisional Government would not be
permitted to last five minutes after
the Stars and Stripes should be taken
down, and the later threats that, if
Commissioner BlOunt we're not here to
prevent the same result would follow,
becomes very laughable.
The flag fell and the Royalst agitat-
ors were as quiet as mollusks in a sand
pile. Mr.. Blount served notice that he
would not interfere with any effort the
people here might make to change the
Government, whereupon the hangers on
of the discarded sovereign crawled into
the nearest hole and plugged the en-
trance with a cigar stub. Now they
say they are leaving everything to
America. When America finishes the
work for which Mr.. Bount was ac-
credited in the most friendly way to the
Provisional Government their next
move, we presume, will be to leave
everything to the Almighty. 1t will be
anything to save their bacon from too
forceful contact with the $50.
