MUNICIPAL OWNERSHIP
RESULT OF CHICAGO ELECTION
MAY AFFECT NEW YORK.

For several weeks politicians in the east
have been watching interestedly the prog
ress of the campaign for municipal owner
ship of public service corporations which
came to head yesterday In Chicago by an
affirmative vote. 1t has been prophesied
right along that the outcome in Chicago
would have far-reaching influence in the
east. where already there is considerable
foment in behalf OF the policy of public
ownership.
In New York especially is the situation In
teresting. Politicians of the metropolis have
freely expressed the opinion that If Chi
cago gave pronounced victory for mu-
nicipal ownership the ball would surely be
set rolling in New York and new issue
in mayoralty politics might take form In
the near future. A number OF New YORK
politicians, with whom member of The
Star staff was discussing this subject in
New York last week. agreed without dis
sent that municipal ownership would come
to the front Immediately
May Come Up in New York City.
It Is a coincidence that the investigation
by the legislature of the lighting franchises
comes at time when public interest Is
aroused in the question of public owner
ship. That Investigation already has devel-
oped a situation that Is attracting the no
tice of the public and if the light OF inquiry
is turned on in full volume there is no
doubt, it is said, that the public will be
aroused to action
A fight over municipal ownership in New
York would be a battle royal. If the
municipality owns the franchises and Tam
many owns the municipality. the plain peo-
pie would have something to think about
in earnest II can be imagined how the
conservative financial interests of New
York city Ewith millions upon millions of
money involved. would regard the prospect
of the precious Tammany bunch getting
hold OF the Vast public franchises of the
greater city. ~ 2.
That there is great dissatisfaction In New
York with the present management of the
public utilities, cannot be denied. The tele-
phone monopoly has borne heavily upon the
people and has brought forth protest
within the past few months. There is
grumbling all the time over the manage
ment of the transportation lines, and the
electric light and gas companies have made
themselves peculiarly offensive in recent
months.
If Tammany should conclude to take ad-
vantage of these conditions and. pointing
to the outcome in Chicago. make a cam
paign with even pretense of favoring
municipal ownership. 1t is said by thought
full politicians that some ginger surely
would be injected into the approaching
struggle for control of the city.

KING 70 VISIT FRANCE
GREAT BRITAIN'S MONARCH TO
TARRY AT MARsEILLE AWHILE.

PARIS. April liking Edwards passage
through France tomorrow on his way to
Marseille and his meeting with President
Loubet are. attracting notable attention.
The officials here do not wish the meeting
to assume political significance in connec-
ton with the Morocco incident. Neverthe-
less large section of the press and public
Will attach significance to the exchange of
Angl0-French amenities Immediately fol-
lowing Germanys announcement that she
does not accept the Anglo-French agree
ment relative to Morocco.
Similar popular significance is attached to
the meeting of the French and British
squadrons Off Spithead in the summer,
though the arrangements for the meeting
long preceded the Morocco incident. 1t has
not the slightest relation thereto Never
theless the coming friendly gathering of
formidable French and British squadrons
brings out much comment.
An effort is again being made to create
an impression here that the United States
has an understanding with Germany rela-
tive to Morocco but the authorities are
satisfied that the report is misleading and
false. Similar discredit is given to Ma
Piles dispatch saying that King Victor EN-
manuel will utilize Emperor Williams pres
ence at Naples today to efface the miSun-
derstandings growing out of the Morocco
incident. Despite all reports, it is posi-
lively known that Italy Is maintaining COM
plete reserve relative to Morocco.
