ceived no satisfaction, and 1t Is understood 'hat

Mayor Schieren Is fully justified In his an

NEW BROOKLYN PARKS.

BROOKLYN IS 20 be congratulated on the pros
meet Of having about 900 acres added TO us
mark area In the near future. Under the dircc-
tIon OF Park Commissioner Squler several park
sites have been selected and negotiations are
now in progress for acquiring the desired lands.
They are to be paid for by an issue Of county
bonds. and II has been found necessary to hasten
the proceedings in order to take advantage OF
the law while Kings County remains distinct
from the city Of Brooklyn. The two will become
completely merged at the beginning Of next year,
when the annexation Of the last remaining town
Is consumInated The law under which the Park
Commissioner Is operating, II Is interesting TO
ohserve was passed at the instance Of the Demo-
cratic Ring for the benefit Of certain Of Its mem
hers who were engaged in real estate spccula-
ton and planned to make large profits at the
EXPENSE Of the city BY benign fate this law
is now 10 be turned to the advantage Of the city
in a marked degree; and ultimately to the advan-
tage OF Greater New-York, when consolidation
becomes an accomplished fact.
Commissioner Squier has been guided In his
choice of sites for new parks largely by the ad-
vice Of Mr.. Frederick Law Olmstcd and his as
sociatcs All the requirements Of the law have
been fully met. In the matter Of public hearings,
in this month. confirmed by Justice Brown, OF the
Supreme Court. -Four sites for large parks In
the outlying districts Of the city have been de-
cided upon and six sites for small parks block
or two In extent in sections where breathing
spots are specially needed. The most important
Of the proposed large parks lies outside Of the
present city limits. In Queens County, but under
the law the Commissioner was empowered to 60
beyond Brooklyn into adjacent territory This
park will comprise about 500 acres Of land lying
on the hills east Of Cypress Hills Cemetery and
extending TO Richmond Hill. The land Is COW
cred In good part with forest trees, and 1t Is the
intention TO keep 1t In Its present natural state
as far as possible Few improvements" will
be undertaken; the fewer the better. The next
largest park will include the Dyker Meadow
property adjoining the Government lands q

THE QUESTION FOR SILVER MEN.

For calamity howlcrs these are extremely hard
times 1t Is not surprising that out Of 1872 dele
gates 10 the Cleveland Convention only 15S were
found who favored free silver coinage-less In
proportion than the one obstinate jury man out
IL twelve who swore that the other eleven were
all blinded by prejudice. True, this Is test Of
Republican opinion and half. or perhaps more
than half Of the delegates In n Democratic con
vcnton would be OF that opinion. But half Of
half, and twelfth of half, make less than three
out Of ten of all the voters. and In republic
the tail does not wag the dog.
Not the slightest unkindncss toward our silver
friends Is intended In the plain statement that
they cannot fairly expect 10 dictate 10 this coun'
try when they are outnumberctl more than two
TO one Concclng all that they can possibly
claim as To the sincerity and entire disntercstcd-
ness OF their motives, granting that they firmly
believe that the prosperity Of the country Is re-
tarded by denial OF silver coinage. still these
partners OF ours In the business Of governing
must In fairness admit that the majority ought
TO rule. |: they should cross party lines. and
count electoral votes instead Of popular majori-
ties they would still find great majority against
them on this single Issue. What have they to

TROLLEY COMPANIES AND TENDERS.

The Brooklyn street railroad companies showed
n spirit Of stolid opposition to the ell
zens and the city yesterday when they were
before Mayor SchIercn to discuss the fender
ordinance which was passed by the Com
mon Council two months ago, and which goes
into effect next Tuesday. The ordinance makes
the not unreasonable requirement that ench ear
shall be equipped with a safety device which
shall extend within three inches Of the tracks
and be SO arranged that nothing can pass I'M
dcrneath the platform to the wheels. Notwith-
standing the fact that there are numerous
Tenders on the market and In use in other cities,
notably In Baltimore one railroad president In
formed the Mayor that his company had tested
various tenders but had been unable to find one
which met the requirements OF the ordinance
Then another complained that the city had not
selected a fender and agreed upon a style which
should not he changed He was as strenuous IN
his objection 10 spending cent in behalf OF
public safety, unless he was assured that no
future improvements In tenders should make 1t
necessary TO spend more money later, as II his
company were not making exceedingly large
profits as the result of being allowed to Use the
city streets. The contention Of the presidents
amounted 20 a plea for more time. There was
no good fender. or II there was 1t might be I'm
proved, II II was not they had not yet equipped
their cars with II and could not now do II In
time to comply with the ordinance next Tues
day, and they did not wish TO be under the neces'
! sity Of paying $26 for every time they sent ou'
