AGAINST BLACKMAIL.
Mayor Low, Of New York, Sends 4
Message to Aldermen.
MUNICIPAL OWNERSHIP WANTED.


New York, Jan. Mayor Low
sent his first message to the board OF
aldermen yesterday. 1t was brief,
and the only subject treated of was
blackmail in the civil administration,
in the stamping out of which he said
he desired the cooperation Of the
people of the city. IF, during the
next two years." the message says,
ANY citizen or any employe Of the
city pays money illegitimately, either
to avoid injury or inconvenience, or
to secure his rights, he will do it be-
cause he wants to and not because
he must. No one, from the largest
corporation to the poorest bootblack,
need pay one dime for protection
from harm or to secure just treat
ment at the hands Of the city gov
eminent. No laborer or other en-
ploye need part with one cent Of his
salary to any one, either in or out
OF the city government. Any one
asked to make improper payment for
any purpose has only to report the
fact to the mayor to be sure of pro-
lection and redress. With the CO.
operation of the citizens and of the
city employees, the whole foul system
can be broken up"
Wants Provisions for Municipal Ownership.
Chicago, Jan. I'm a message to
the city council last night on the
traction question Mayor Harrison de-
clared that he never would give his
official consent to a franchise extern
sion which did not contain provisions
making possible ultimate municipal
ownership, nor to franchise which
did not require ratification by a
referendum vote of the people be-
fore it took effect. No municipal
ownership clause will do, he de-
clared, which depends on the preliml-
nary passage Of enabling legislation
by the state legislature. Legislation
first and franchises afterward, was
his motto.
Contract Marriages Legsiized.
New York, Jan. THE first con-
tract marriage under the new Weeks
law was filed yesterday with the city
clerk. This contract certificate is an
agreement between man and a
woman to live together as man and
wife. Under the law any contract
signed by the contracting parties,
witnessed by a commissioner of deeds
and filed with the city clerk within
month thereof, legalizes the marriage
and the progeny also.

Of bloody racial encounters at about the
