WILL BE NEW SIGHT
NEW YORK TO HAVE THE FINEST
200 IN THE WORLD.

Plans Nearly Completed For Its Estab-
lishment-Wild Animals to he Shown AS
Nearly as Possible Under Natural Con-
ditions-W. T. Hornaday to Be Director.
The New York Geological society has
been hard at work during the past two
years, and now it is prepared to move
much more swiftly. 1t has selected w.
T. Hornaday as director.
The society is made up Of men Of
high standing who believe that New
York should have a geological garden
in keeping with its Importance.
"'The society proposes to give New
York the finest geological garden in the
world, said Mr.. Hornaday. 1.-THE legis-
lature has already authorized the city
to set aside 800 acres for the purpose,
and the work of examining sites has
been going on all winter.
"The garden must be accessible to the
people Of greater New York Oh the pay
ment Of a cheap fare. The selection lies
between Vancortlandt, Pelham, Bronx
and Crotona parks. A subcommittee,
The Madisonian. (Virginia City, Mont.) 1873-1915, 1896-10-10

consisting of Messrs. Green, Osborn and
La. Fargo, has the matter i'll charge. l
am to spend three weeks in going over
the parks and then submit a detailed re-
port to the board of managers, upon
which they expect to decide definitely
upon a cite.
When this is determined, we shall
proceed with plans for laying out the
garden and the buildings. Then we
shall call fer subscriptions. 1t is desired
to raise $3.50, 900 by subscription and
then ask the legislature to increase the
amount to $500, 600, which will be suf-
ficient to establish and equip a magnifi-
Cent garden.
1.-The society proposes carrying out a
new principle, that Of placing native
and foreign animals Of the tropical re-
gions as far as possible among their nat
ural surroundings. The large area which
we shall have at our disposal will make
it possible to do this. The larger ami
mails of North America will be shown
in the free range Of large Enclosures, i'll
which the rocks, forests and natural
features Of the landscapes will give the
people an impression of the life, habits
and native surroundings of these differ
ent types.
"lt is proposed hat the lion house
shall open into IL sandy Enclosure, in
which palms and other tropical plants
will give IL perfect impression Of the
natural habits of the lion. The finest
existing geological garden in the world
1,o, I,,A Et ,.,,, WILL SOn oorn. --,
possibilities are unlimited.
1.-The first main feature will be the
collection Of native animals, many OF
which are rapidly becoming extinct.
The value Of exhibiting them under
natural conditions will be very great.
When this garden is established, it will
be the city's finest resort for recreation,
provides that visitors must be admitted
free during four days of the week. ONT
of which must be Sunday.
"a vast amount of preliminary work
has already been done. l think that
actual work on the grounds will begin
next autumn. 1t will not take long tt
make Il fine collection.
THE new garden will not interfere
i'll any way with the menagerie i'll Cen
trail park. We have no wish to encroacl
upon it i'll any way
MI. Hornaday was selected as direct

mendations of the leading biologists O

SUNDAY AND THE HACkMEN.
Several Drivers Arrested for LOiter
ing on the Stands.

Under the law relating to public vehicles
the hack stands are not permitted to be
occupied Sundays. The law also provides
that drivers of public vehicles shall not
Ioiter about the streets and seek employ
mant There are more licensed vehicles in
the city than there are places on the stands
for them, and for this reason the law
against lettering or Grabbing has not
been strictly enforced. But last Sunday
Policeman Barry observed about forty pub
lie vehicles lettering about the vicinity of
the Airing ton Hotel. and he swore out
warrants for most of their drivers Seven
of the warrants were returned today, and
Judge Kimball heard the cases.
Four Of the drivers are employed by the
Union Transfer Company, and it was stat
ed that these men object to going out Sum
Gay. but are compelled to go out or lose
their situations. The facts were not dis
puted, and Judge Kimball held them guilty.
AS these were the first cases brought for
a long time, the court did not impose
fines, but gave the men a warning that
they will be fined If the offense is repeated.

EMERGENCY HOSPITAL.
An Effort to Settle Existing Differ
ences ut the Institution.

cnccS the
The unpleasant relations existing between
DIR. James Kerr. surgeon-in-chief at the
Emergency Hospital, and the members OF
the medical staff of the institution, still
the subject of investigation by the direc.
tors, through committee consisting of Mr.
John w. Foster, chairman: Mr.. w. C.
Whittemore. secretary, and MeSsrs. B. H
Warner, A. A. Thomas and H. l.. West
These gentlemen held meeting yesterday
afternoon and examined Miss West. the
superintendent at the hospital, upon some
of the conditions existing there. The com
mittee adjourned until May 4, when 1t is
expected final action will be taken in the
shape of report to the board of directors
In the meantime. it is currently reported
efforts will be made to adjust the differ
ences existing between Surgeon Kerr and
the medical staff, and relieve the situation
of its serious aspect. The objection to
Surgeon Kerr is entirely of a personal ma
ture his temperament, it is said, being the
cause of the prevalent dissatisfaction of the
staff with him. Accordingly, ii is thought
that the directors of the hospital both on
the committee and off of it will endeavoI
to assuage the present bitterness and pre-
vent recurrence of it in the future by
adopting set of rules which will express
ly stipuate the exact duties and authority
of the surgeon-in-chief, as well as those OF
the medical board, and thus eliminate al
chances for a clash between DR.. Kerr and
the medical staff hereafter.
