New-York tribune., 1901-03-18

OF a congratulatory article IN The Times on
one Of Mr.. Chamberlain's schemes for the re-
generation Of the British Antilles. An annual
subsidy-teu it not in Gath but that is the
word which the leading journal uses-of 100000
is TO be pai5 BY the colony Of Jamaica and by the
imperial government for the development Of the
fruit trade between the island and the United
Kingdom. These steamers are specially built
for the storage Of tropical fruit and for making
high speed. 1t is expected that oranges. bananas
and other tropical fruit viii be delivered in
Bristol and London fourteen days after leaving
Kingston, and that great business will be es-
tahlished in consequence Of the payment of this
steamship subsidy. The royal commission which
recently reported the industrial condition OF
the West Indies recommended the development
Of the fruit trade by means Of high speed
steamers The Secretary for the Colonies, who
has had an unfortunate experience in the Ba-
hama hemp industry. has sought to carry out
the suggestion by agreeing to pay one-half OF
the subsidy for limited period.
Mr.. Froude. in his book the West Indies
quoted an enterprising American trader as say
ing that there were dollars in the island of
Jamaica" The phrase has fingered in English
mems memories. and is always revived when
any reference is made TO the declining fortunes
Of the West Indian possessions. There are dol
lars in the entire group they wellnigh per-
suaded. II any one can only learn how 10 get
them out This steamship subsidy and series
Of small doles 70 the various governments of the
neglected islands are the only results OF the pro-
longed investigation Of the royal commission
and the British West Indies are virtually left
10 the mercy Of Americans. who have been car
rying on with them for thirty years a fruit trade
of greater volume than Bristol can ever hope to
foster, and who have also provided the only
systematic safeguards for the protection of their
sugar industry. when The British government
was bent upon taxing the bounty fed beet sugar
from the Continent and having cheap jam and
marmalade for the free breakfast table" When
Mr.. Chamberlain entered the Colonial Once he
advocated a judicious investment Of Treasury
funds Cor the development Of neglected estates
Of the empire. This steamship subsidy is the
first practical measure which has been adopted
for promoting the revival and prosperity OF any
West Indian Industry. 1t is little enough as a
means for the Industrial restoration Of a single
island; but il IS better than the usual futile sug-
gestions for grants for botanical gardens. agri-
cultural schools. central sugar factories, new
roads and measures for thinning out blacks and
coolies in corgssted districts: and il is more
useful than heating the air with the old time
warning against carrying all the eggs in one
basket I y. F.

FEAR BROOKLYN WONT GET HER SHARE

Many Brookyrites seem to fear that if there
should be a consolidation OF the library boards Of

that there was something 10 be said on both sides

There are good many people in Brooklyn who
are determined that she shall retain her local gov
eminent and 90 things in her own way as much as
possible. Personally believe that the East Pfver
should be treated more than a street and
that Brooklyn should not be considered as being

BROOKLYN TO DOTS PART.
'IR. BERRI THINKS SOME OF THE
PARKS NIGHT BE UTILIZED.

Ex-Naycr Charles \. Schieren. of Brook
Iyn. is willing 10 give a site for one Of the
libraries.
Il would esteem it a great privilege" he said
yesterday. 10 give site for one Of the Carnegie
libraries. and I believe there are enough public
spirited men in the Borough Of Brooklyn TO
provide all the locations necessary The great
trouble will be that the men who might con-
tribute sites viii want 70 place them in their.
own particular wards or sections of the bor-
ough. 1t Will be a matter OF great Importance
to locate these libraries properly They must
be placed not for the present but for fifty or
one hundred years hence. The centres Of popu-
lation Will in all probability be completely
changed in the next fifty years. believe that
the great mass of the people in that time will be
housed in Queens County. There is more room
there now, and the tendency is all that way.
Tunnels and bridges now under way Will rev.
olutionize the mode Of living Of the people None
of these substantial. beautiful buildings must
be situated where they will soon be closed in
by mills and factories and public buildings. OF
course. highly restricted sections in the outlying
districts Of Kings County should be literally
supplied with these branch libraries. they will
in few years be thickly populated. I have no
doubt that Brooklyn will do it's share TO show
its appreciation OF the magnificent gift Of this
wonderful man Carnegie"
BERRI WILL DO HIS SHARE
William Berri formerly president OF the
Brooklyn Bridge Commission, said he was will
ing 10 do his share toward providing sites in
Brooklyn. There are dozen men whom I could
name right now who would be glad Of the op-
rortunity to give sites in Brooklyn for the Car
negie branch libraries" he continued. They
are men who would be as modest about contrib
uting their mite as Nr. Carnegie has been in
giving his muekle 1 doubt if you could get one
Of them 20 say what he is prepared to do.
Il believe that Brooklyn will handle this mat
ter as it does other public questions. such as
providing silver service for the cruiser Brook
lyn and in securing funds for the Martyrs Mon
Ument. a public meeting Will probably be
called and a treasurer appointed for fund.
which I believe will be largely contributed 70
by public men.
i believe l fully appreciate this magnificent
gift Of Mr. Carnegie. and 1 certainly shall do M
share. whether it he 70 provide a site or con-
tribute to general fund 70 buy.
The city has land OF its own which ought 10
furnish ideal situations for these buildings. It's
parks. for example. could be utilized for that
purpose, such Tompkins. Prospect and
other smaller parks in Brooklyn proper. as well
as Forest Park and other property in the out
lying sections II these buildings could be
placed in the parks IL would be a great mistake
% hide their beauty by surrounding them with
houses and public buildings"
