GREATER NEW YORK POLITICS.

When Gen. Tracy was nominated for
mayor by the Plat republicans, it looked
as if Tammany was sure of compar-
atively easy victory, owing to the division
of the republicans. But the outlook for
Seth Low has improved since then. On
the one hand it is pretty plain that the
Plat ticket will be supported by only II
minority of the republicans of Greater
New York-the Independent Republican
or Brooktield organization, which in
cludes Mayor Strong and many friends
of Gen. Tracy, having declared against
the latter and for Mr.. Low. On the
other hand some strong democratic
factions have joined the Low column,
among them being the "shlp' Democracy.
so called, which helped the republicans
of Brooklyn to assault the Mclaughlin
ring; the powerful German-American
Reform union, which has twice decided
municipal contest in New York; the
Purroy Democracy, which includes the
antl-Tammany elements of the borough
of the Bronx; and the Grace Democracy,
the strongest rival of Tammany in the
democratic party of New York.
The New York Staats-Zeitung, the
most influential organ of the German
opposition, and the Brooklyn Eagle, the
most influential newspaper in Brook

Low, and for want of republican organ,
the Platt machine has been compelled TO
accept as such the New York Sun, which
in politics is free lance. The outcome
is indeed uncertain as yet but is certainly
a fair fighting chance for the Citizens

SOME NAVIGATION FIGURES.

The annual report of Mr.. Chamberlain,
the commissioners of navigation, which
has just been submitted to the secretary
of the treasury, shows that the total
documented tonnage of the United
States on June 80, 1897, 100000 tons,
is the largest for 2l years, except 1898,
when it was 4,S25,07l tons. Our largest
documented tonnage was 5,539,sl3 tons
on June 30, 1861.
Considering the speed and number of
trips of steam vessels, compared with
sailing vessels, our merchant fleet has
never been so efficient as this year. The
steam tonnage amounts to 2,35s, SOB

ton thus far indicates that at the end of
the current fiscal year the steam tonnage
for the first time in our history will ex-
coed the combined tonnage of document
ed sailing vessels, barges and canal
boats. BY act of congress In 1874,
about 100000 tons of canal boats and
barges were exempted from documents,
and are no longer carried on the govern
ment books.
The total construction for the year,
sol vessels of 1929 gross tons, is the
largest annual output since 1891. The
square-rigged sailing vessel has virtually
ceased TO be a product of American
shipyards. No ships or barques were

seal Rabbit skins.

Rabbit skins are now made to look
like seal skins. The process of prep
aration is the following: The rabbits
are caught alive, their fur shaved
evenly all over and the animals set
free again. This operation is repeated
at intervals for a considerable time.
Then the rabbit is killed and its skin
dried and treated exactly as sealskin.
The result is a shining fur.
