NAY BLOCK CITY FERRI
amendment to Charter ProU1d'ng
for It Found Faulty.

The letter of President Swanstrom to COM
missioner Hawkes. of the Dock Depar tnlen'' ~
published yesterday, suggesting that condl'lohs
had become so acute that it was now the
duty of the municipality to acquire and operate
the Thirty-ninth-st ferry, brought to hght a
peculiar mistake in the amendment OF the char-
ter adopted to make this possible Apparently
It was another case of too many cooks spolilng
the broth for in the effort to make certain tnat
the legislature should provide for the operation
of the ferry by the city, the phraseolosy OF tne
amendment got mixed up. and 1t is oount1ul IL
the desired step can be taken under the amend
ment as it passed.
To get its passage the different persons III
terested in the subject attempted to tack the
measure on the bill referring to the Cheisea
Improvement The amendment, passed, reads
follows:
Upon or adjacent to the North River In tne
Borough of Manhattan between the Battery and
Pier 3 in the City of New-York.
In the first place the Manhattan terminal of
the ferry referred TO is Pier B. East River. In
the second place, there are four piers In the
citv of New-York known as No. 3-two on the
East River and two on the North River. 1t
happens also that the new words thus inserted
were not properly underlined in the bill as
printed for the Senate. 1t may invalidate the
amendment and leave the city without authority
to do anything. The Goelet estate owns the
ferry terminal in Manhattan, and proba bly,,
should any effort be made by the city to con-
denim the property under the act. would resist
the attempt using as the basis the irregularity
of the amendment
Commissioner Ha wkes said yesterday that
he favored the development of South Brooklyn.
and had gone so far to have plans drawn
for the ferry terminals. He could go no further,
he said until the legality of the amendment had
been passed upon by the Corporation counsel
He said when he received Mr.. Swanstrom's let
ter yesterday he replied to 1t, stating the posi-
tion of the department.
The Dock Department prepared three bills
covering the question. which were technically
correct. but the persons interested in the move
to have the ferry operated by the municipality
did not make of them. fearing that a sep
arate measure would not get through the lests-
Iature.

WATTERSON STARTS A FOLK BOOM
He Says That the St. Louis Circuit Attorney
Is Democratic Possibility for Next Year.

Louisville June 9-In The Courier Journal
tomorrow morning Colonel Watterson will declare
that Joseph W Folk. of 81. Louis. is possibility
for the Democratic nomination for President next
year. He Will say, in part:
The latest dark horse to edge mis- way it
were, into the paddock has still year before him
to make a record. Neither Mr.. Tilden Mr..
Cleveland had much more. If the Hon. Joseph w.
Folk of St Louis, be nominated and elected by
the Democrats TO the Governorship Of Missouri, he
will occupy very much the position occupied by
Mr.. Tilden in 1876. Whether Mr.. Folk himself ts
another Tilden, or even approximately Up to the
Presidential attitude is question we have no
means yet Of deciding. But in the prevailing cha os
1t is conceivable that he may come to DC In the
running, without nomination and election
a Governor of Missouri.
Mr.. Folk is 70 be Tammanys orator the coming
Fourth of July. If he makes a good impression,
count him thereafter one at least Of the possi-
bilities. In American politics nobody can tell what
year may bring forth.
In another editorial Mr Watterson will say of
Bryan and Cleveland:
very encourag ging. It is disCouraging because the
life Of the party is being crushed between he
per and neither mstones of BryaniSm and Cleve-
landism which. in either case is but another name
for nordinate egotism and selshneSs. If the party
throw off these millstones it will have chance.
prejudices and passions find some good man who
has not been mixed extensively with the faction
fighting, put him upon platform which the
masses of the party unite under agreement
that bygones shall be bygones. ii will have a
chance, but not otherwise. Both Mr.. Bryan and
can be any real peace or effective union among
Democrats,
