The need for whitaker street as a
thoroughfare for vehicle traffic will be
conceded by everybody familiar with the
facts. 1t will not become. such a thor
oughfare, however, until it has beeY
paved. Drivers will not use 1t when they
can avoid doing so, because It is rough
rough on animals and on vehicles. with
a good, vitrifed brick pavement. it would
be extensively used, even without the re-
moval of the street car track. Under the
law, when the city paves a street occu-
pied by street car tracks, the company
must bear its proportion of the cost.
Whitaker street is narrow, and the car
track runs through practically the whole
length of it. from Bay TO the city limits.
Thus IL it were ordered paved, pretty
considerable part OF the cost would fall
upon the railroad company. The city may
not be in position to order the track re-
moved, but it certainly is In a position
to order the street paved. With the cost
OF paving confronting it. the company
might consider whether II would not be
better to abandon the street, since such
abandonment would involve no consider
able loss of revenues. The Barnard-Aber-
corn belt line would do the work that Is
now being done by the Whitaker shuttle
cars. Barnard street is within three hun
dred feet OF Whitaker. hence there would
be very little IL any loss of business 10

lie opinion would never permit other
tracks 70 be put there; thus there 10 no
danger OF competition IN the scheme. At
all events. whether the track Is removed
or not, whitaker street ought 70 be
paved.

Great Britain wants to place part of
her new loan of $500, 100000 In this coun-
try. J. Pierpont Morgan, who is now
in Europe, has issued a circular in New
York asking for subscription to the loan
to the amount OF $15O,OO00O0. The bonds
are offered at 9i1a. They bear interest
at the rate of 22I per cent. for two years
and 21h thereafter, and cannot be redeemed
until 1923.
1t is doubtful II there will be a rush
for the bonds in this country 1t has not
been so very long since Great Britain
placed a loan of s25OOO,OOO here, and when
the investors got their checks they found
that the British government had deduct
ed the income tax of per cent. Some of
them at once disposed of their bonds.
They felt that great Britain had acted in
bad faith, because she had not said that
she would deduct the income tax when
she offered the bonds. Besides, they did
not know but that the income tax would
be increased, and it might be as much as
10 per cent. instead of 5, as at present.
And from present Indications they were
not wrong about the income tax being
increased. 1t is proposed to make 1t
per cent.
There does not seem to be any justice
in compelling Americans to pay a tax
to Great Britain. When Germany placed
a loan in New York she announced that
her bonds in American hands. would not
be subjected to any tax, and Russia, when
she sought a loan in our money market,
gave a guarantee that neither the bonds
sold to American investors nor the IN
come from them would be subjected to a
Russian tax.
No doubt a large amount of the Brit
ish loan will be taken by our insurance
and other companies which are seeking
safe investments. The rate of interest
is of course very low, but the security is
regarded as good as can be had, and that
is a matter carefully looked after by in
stitutions making investments of trust
funds.
1t has not been so very long since Great
Britain could borrow at a lower rate of
interest than the United States, but now
United States 2 per cents. are above par
while British Consols bearing interest at
the rate of 2% per cent. command only
9411. Indeed, the United States can bor-
row money now at lower rate of in
terest than any other nation. They have
more than $4,000, 900 in gold in the treas
ury. and it>looks as If New York were
fast becoming. il she is not already, the
money center of the world.

TAXING MORTGAGES.

The bill pending in the New York Leg
islature taxing mortgages one half of
one per cent. by the state and exempting
them from county and municipal taxa
ton is meeting with strong opposition.
One objection is that mortgages held by
savings banks. insurance and trust com
psnies are relieved from all taxation on
the ground that they are taxed in other
ways. Another objection is that the own
err of the real estate which is mortgaged
will have to pay the tax-that is, the rate
of interest will be raised so as to cover
the tax on the mortgage.
But it is rather remarkable that there
should be so much opposition to the bill
in view of the fact that mortgages are
now taxable in New York. and the rate
of taxation is fully two and a half per
cent. On New York city. 1t seems, how
ever. that nobody returns mortgages for
taxation, except the administrators of
estates and guardians of minors, and the
tax assessors do not take the trouble to
look up the records. There is a very gem
eral sentiment that a tax ON mort cages
is double taxation, and hence the law
taxing mortgages is dead letter in New
York. If the bill taxing mortgages one
half of l per cent. should become a law,
the tax would be collected. Hence the
opposition to IL.
In many If not most, of the states,
mortgages are not taxed, or IL taxed, the
tax is a very light one In Massachusetts
they are not taxed, while in Pennsylvania
the tax is one quarter of per cent, and
that covers, state, county and municipal
taxation
In this city mortgages are taxed at the
rate of about 2A per cent. on three
fourths of their face value. That is an ex
eessive rate, and it is doubtful if very
many residents invest money in mort
cages when they can find other invest
mcnts that pay fair rate of interest.
The MORTGAGES are taken by outside in
vestors who do not have to pay taxes on
mortgages. The whole system of taxation
in this state ought to be thoroughly re.
vised.

why He Got His Quarter,

This happened yesterday morning while
the president and directors of a Chestnut
street bank were discussing momentous
affairs in the board ROOM says the Phil
adelphia Record. The door suddenly open
ed and a husky voice exclaimed: viii
liam, ] want a quarter, and l want it
quick" Every one looked up. The pres
ident recognized the intruder as a man
who had been a playmate years ago,
when they were both boys. His wander
ings had taken the form of a circuit APP
parently, and this was his semi-annual
visit. William, l want a quarter-to get
a couple o. drinks explained ne of the
husky voice. you ought to be ashamed
of yourself" observed the president, en-
barrassed and irritated. Ashamed of my
self" said the bum. why? Because
1 told you the truth? William, if I'd come
here with a lie on my lips, you'd give me
your last winters overshoes, an old over
coat and S." The president gave start.
That was exactly what he had done to a
seedylooking fellow who had slipped pas
the guard a couple of weeks before. Yes,
William, that's just what you'd do if I
told you 1 wanted to bury my dead wife
and buy food for six starving children.
I know it, because l helped the wjdower
drown his sorrow. When the five-spot was
gone we hooked the coat-the overshoes
weren't worth a cent Oh, wish I was
a good, conscientious liar, like Jim The
directors said the drinks were on the
president, and, as subsequent events prov
ed they were.

AN INTEREsTrxG QUESTION.

The question which Messrs. Camp &
West have raised in connection with the
leasing of Florida convicts promises to
be an interesting one. It seems that they
claim that they have a contract with the
Board of Commissioners OF State lnstl-
tutions for a certain number of convicts.
On the other hand, the board insists that
the contract into which it entered with
Messrs. Camp & West is only tentative
one. In an issue OF that sort the only
tribunal that can settle the matter is the
court. and so the Supreme Court has been
called on to adjust IL. 1t may turn out
that the state will not get so much for
it's conVicts as it was thought II would
few days ago. If we are not mistaken,
the contract under which Messrs. Camp
g. West claim a certain number of con-
victs provides for the payment of only
500 a year or less per convict. Some
of the recent bids were a great deal
higher than that. Under the last call
for bids the minimum price the board
would accept was $130
In some of the reports which have ap-
peared in the papers it was stated that
sub-lessees have paid as high as
$50. 1t is to be presumed, OF
course that such a price as that was
paid only for exceptionally healthy and
strong conyicts.
Until the suit which Messrs. Camp &
West have begun is decided the convict
lease question will remain an open one
that is, the state will not be able to
make a satisfactory estimate of the
amount it will get for convicts. The
suit WILL of course, be pushed to de-
cision as rapidly as possible, as both par
ties to it are naturally anxious to get a
settlement of it promptly.
It would be rather startling to the
board If the tentative contracts which
were given out should be held to be suf-
fcient to give those claiming under them
the convicts for which they bid. In that
event, the state would lose a good many
thousand dollars and the boards faith
in tentative contracts would be shattered.
