APPROVES OF THE FORD
FRANCHISE TAX BILL.
Ex-Governor Flower in Sympathy with
the Measure. Which Imposes Add
tlonal Taxes on Corporations.

NEW YORK. May i-Ex.Governor
Roswell p. Flower. who is at the head
OF great enterprises which will have to
pay large sums OF money under the
terms Of the Ford franchise tax bill,
declares that ne is in complete sym.
paihy with the objee; which the measure
seeks TO obtain.
I Mr.. Flower said that he believed that
Corporations should be allowed to make
IA stated reasonable profit annually. and
that they should be required to pay ad-
tional taxes in proportion as their fran
chises increased IN value He believed.
he said, In the granting OF perpetual
franchises under these conditions. as
capitalists would feel safe in investing
great sums OF money In semi-publlc en-
terprises. and the city at the same time
would derive greater benefits in the
same proportion as those who hold the
franchises.
Mr.. Flower said that the justice OF
taxing franchises had passed out OF the
debatable stage. and he believed the d.
rectors Of street, railroad, telephone.
gas telegraph and subway companies
would be wise to pay willingly a fair
tax for the privileges they have been
given by the city.
Corporations have nothing to fear from
the Ford bill, Mr.. Flower declared. be-
cause the United States supreme court in
the Nebraska decision established the
fact that a corporation could not be
taxed out OF existence.

ESTIMATED COST OF THE
NICARAGUA WATERWAY
Rear Admiral Walker and Engineer
Haupt Estimates Expense at one
Hundred and Twenty-Five Millions.

NEW YORK. May IA special to the
Herald from Washington says: On ac-
count of the difficulty OF reaching a
unanimous conclusion as to the cost OF
the proposed waterway, the Nicaraguan
canal commission has not yet submitted
a report, and It is not expected to dc
so for some time.
When the report is submitted the pres
ident will appoint the isthmian canal
commission, authority for which is given
In the river and harbor appropriation
bill. Rear Admiral Walker and Civil En-
gineer Haupt are practically agreed on
the question OF cost, but General Haines,
the third member, thinks the estimates
Of his colleagues too low When all the
figures as to the amount OF material to
be removed and required in the construc-
tion OF the canal with the conditions
prevailing had been received. the three
commissioners reported an agreement
on the cost of each feature of the work
Rear Admiral Walker was quite willing
to let this sum. with an addition Of ten
per cent for emergencies, stand as the
estimate OF the cost OF construction,
but General Haines thinks the canal
viii cost more than the sum estimated
by Rear Admiral Walker and Mr.. Haupt.
When the preliminary report Of the
commission was submitted, Rear Ad-
miral Walker and Mr. Haupt estimated
N9S, 100000 but General Haines added
minority report, which, while 1t approved
the route selected by his colleagues
adder 20 per cent to the estimate of
cost.
