POTTER AND COLER TALK TO C. L. q.
CONTROLLER THINKS GOOD WILL COME
FROM THE VICE CRUSADE.

Bishop Potter and Controller Coler were the
principal speakers al the annual diner OF the Cen
trail Labor Union Of Brooklyn in the Labor Ly-
ceum No 93s Wioughby-ave, last evening.
Bishop Potter said in part
believe that much good be done by the con-
tact of classes The basis Of the social organism
Is the table since 1t gives good an opportunity
for social intercourse. Some time ago In Washlng-
ton l told some members of Congress mat conchT
alton consisted of putting cigars. am a1rald
shocked them. We must get together ana try
10 create an air of good fellowship. becauSe IL
kindies common enthusiasm and fraternal feelings
which are the cement of union You cannot 40 any
co-operative good for the race except upon the
principle of brotherhood.
Mr. Coler followed Bishop Potter. He was greet
ed with much applause He suggested that a
great many complaints which he received were
worthless because improperly drawn. The labor
unions should appoint committees to make the
handling of complaints their special business. He
said that the outlook for municipal ownership OF
public utilities was encouraging. and thought that
a list OF the properties owned by the city should
be made out and that several million dollars
worth of these properties should he sold,
Nowadays" he continued, I'VE hear a good deal
about vice and believe that good will come from
the present agitation against 1t: but believe that
no city in Europe has less vice than New oFk,
as those Of YOU who have been abroad know for
yourselves believe that the city OF New ork
to-day gives too much attention TO higher educa.
ton and not enough attention TO common School
education. If children all went to scnool So
cial conditions might be different
Speeches were also made by r. Fulton Cutting:

water had oily and hshy taste
AS was published in The Tribune. President Muir

the offensive taste and odor had been brought
about by the rains washing the surface dust and
debris into the reservoirs the Croton water shed

thought. would n way remedy the evils, In
some places the hydrants had been run for fifteen
minutes, and in others Tor about half an hour.
