SAVE THE WATERFRONT.

The controversy which has arisen over the
Astoria grant of land under water by the state
Land Board will have served n useful purpose,
however that particular case may be settled, II
II directs public attention TO the need of pre-
serving the waterfront Of the outlying sections
of the CITY 1t is already time to he anticipating
the day when population and business viii be so
grown that docking facilities along the Queens
and Richmond waterfronts will be as valuable
aud necessary to the common prosperity as they
now are in the more thickly settled portions of
the metropolis The old city's experience in Sc
curing public docks should not be wasted. If
we 90 Oh now TO repeat the blunders of fifty
and one hundred years ago which il has cost
enormous sums 10 retrieve il will be n work Of
incredible stupidity and shortsightedness
The city of New-York was once in control of
practically all the land under water about Man
haitian Island. Early charters and grants Co
lonial and State gave the city possession of the
waterfront at the lower end Of the island, and
in 1926 the city secured similar rights on both
rivers from the limits of the old grants TO Spuy
ten Duyvi on the one side and the Harlem on
the other These were, of course subject to
previous grants to private persons allowing
them to build piers beyond low water mark
/,
came into the control of the city, and as the
law then was in this State, could have been i'm
proved without regard TO claims OF owners Of
uplands adjoining the water to right of access.
The only persons who had Il claim for riparian
rights against the city were not the owners Of
land on shore, but prOprietOrs whose lands ran
out fully TO the bulkhead line by previous
grants. This great property the city proceeded
10 waste Its value was not fully appreciated
and the authorities were not prepared TO de
velop it themselves. SO they sold or leased in
perpetuity the greater part of ii 10 upland own
ers who promised to fill it in and build docks
II the great development Of business had been
realized and these grants had been made for
limited periods, subject 10 revaluatOn If not alb
solute termination. New-YOrk would have had
in It's docks Income producing property OF al
most ncalculable value. But II was allowed TO
pass absolutely into private hands and I'm recent
years the city has been compelled 10 condemn
and pay for at the present valuation, due TO the
greatness of the city a. whole waterfront
property which II practically gave away
Is this mistake TO be repeated where fifty
years hence public docks will he needed? This
Is a question which concerns both the State and
the city authorities. The State has been grant.

MONEY AND BUSINESS

The worst month Of the year in stock specula-
ton Is relatively the best in business. Consider
ing the necessary relaxation the end Of the
year draws near the monetary exigencies in
preparation for annual settlements and the gen
eral observance OF the holidays December does
wonders when il rivals the best Of other months
it does this year in volume OF business The
largest weekly exchanges ever known were those
Of last week, though they had not quarterly or
even monthly payments TO swell them averaging
S24SO72 600 daily at New-York, 500 $50 600 at
thirteen other chief cities and $40 053 600 at six
ty-siX minor places. Nor is II speculation mainly
that swels the aggregate. for the months pay-
ments at all points outside New-Ycrk are thus
far and promise TO be. the largest ever known in
any month. All kinds OF business are flourish
ing; not merely great activity, but extraordinary
profits realized. Wages OF nearly 100000
hands in textile and some other industries have
recently been raised. and the Carnegie works
last week advanced wages Of about - 900 more
The aggregate for all workers is now probably
the largest ever known.
The contrast between productive industry and
speculation is the sharper because. with marvel
lous progress in industry. there comes a smash
especially severe In Industrial stocks A week
ago in this column the greatest production OF
iron ever known was announced, and the same
day the stocks Of the many iron producing and
working companies were depressed to the lowest
point ever known. South Africa furnishes a pre-
text but not cause, and neither pressure in
money nor selling of shares by London. which
were not Industrials affected prices as much as
the general distrust which refusal Of informa-
tion by corporations produces. After the panic
on Monday there was general recovery aver.
aging more than 81 share. but this was fol-
lowed by further decline. so that the average at
Fridays closing the lowest yet for the year.

in this country those who are most conspicuous
