the fact that most concerns which nave re-

part Of their old force. In steel rails TWO large
concerns are about to start up but only LOT

in September was 1000 tons. less than fifth OF

forms Of finished products. In the shoe manu-
facture there is somewhat better feeling. ana

for a time was more than 30 per cent, Is now
only about % per cent. In cotton there Is

4 CRATE INDICTMENT OF BROOkLfN

4 CRATE INDICTMENT or h"""hHfN
For thc third time within less than two
years serious attack has been made upon the
administration Of public affairs IN Brooklyn.
These attacks have all been non-political IN
character. and are all the more Significant on
that occount. The first occurred when New
Yor, bank refused To accept an issue Of Kings
County bonds on account Of the doubt which
il entertained as to the legality OF the issue
The second came when the fire insurance com
pancs Of this city resolved on an advance III
rates for Brooklyn property because OF the IN
efficient Fire Department Of that city And
now II il announced that the banks Of New
YorI, will make no more loans on Brooklyn
nroncrtv 40 long rs the affairs of the city re-
main under the control of the Ring There has
been no such grave indictment Of the King ana
the Rings policy mp 10 this time. It's gravity
cannot be- ovcrcstimatcd. II shows how deep
and serious is the distrust created in III" pub
liz. mind by the administration Of Mayor Body.
And vet n m,,st be admitted by frank and
fair.rninded men that there Is nothing in any
way surprising in this Brooklyn is unique in
having Mayor who only by hairs breadth
escaped Indictment by one Grand Jury. ana
who was mercilcssly scored by second. which
failed TO ndic him only because II was AS
sured bv another creature Of the Ring that II
had no power to do 80 II * an admitted fact
that on account Of the high taX-ratc and the
bad condition Of things in general good many
people are seriously in doubt as To the dcsira-
bility Of continuing to live in Brooklyn. II
there were not speedy hope Of IN improvement.
il Is almost certain there would soon be- large
emigration from that city.
The action Of the bank officers cannot be AZ
tribuicd 10 political motives. Sagacious men
Of business do not manage their business af-
fairs in that way. They have responsibility
To those for whom they act. and are in honor
bound 10 take 10 unnecessary risks. II Is be-
cause they have serious msgivings regarding
the future Of Brooklyn that they have taken
the important step reported in or columns on
sunday Fortunately. the prospect Of speedy
improvement il excellent. The p"opl" of Brook
lyn are aroused and recognize the necessity Of
Il sweeping reform. The action Of the bank
officers will add fuel To the flame There il
only one way in which the name AMI fame Of
Brooklyn can be- redeemed That Is by IN I'M
compromising overthrow of the Ring respon
siblc for the pass to which matters have been
brought. by dilccnt work during the next
two weeks This can h" accomplished.
