SIGNS SAKE BILL.
Mayor Urges amendments BE LAID
Before Present Legislature.

The bill introduced into the Legislature by
Senator Martin Sake. designed to take the New
York Central tracks from Eleventh avenue ana
authorizing the Rapid Transit Commission 10
contract with the company for the construction
of a subway for the tracks. was signed TOT
the city yesterday by Mayor Mcclellan inc
railroad company through its counsel ira A.
Place. announces that It will continue to hight
the bill, and will demand hearing before Gov
ernor Higgins.
The Mayor has sent this memorandum TO the
Governor with his acceptance OF the bill:
Memorandum to accompany Assembly Bill No
2S6. Int 236, entitled: "An act TO terminate the
use of streets. avenues and public places IN the
city OF New-York in the Borough OF Manhat-
tan, by railroads operated by steam locomotive
power at grade.'
There is no question in my mind that some
legislation is desirable in order 10 terminals
the use Of the public streets by steam railroads
operating at grade in the Borough or Manhat-
tan. While many of the provisions or the pro-
posed bill are open to criticism, and while there
are some doubts as to whether It's enactnent
will accomplish the object which Is sought, L
consider that IL is step in the right dlrectlon,
and therefore have no hesitation in accepting 1t
on behalf of the city of New-York-
II has been suggested that in case the bill
proves to be defective in certain provisions II
will be possible seek relief next year from the
Legislature and have the act amended so that
it may finally prove to be effective l see no
reason, however, why the proponents of the bill
should wait year before attempting TO correct
such defects as the bill may contain. 1t seems
TO me that 1t would he more advisable, after
careful consideration of the objections that have
been urged against the BILL to propose amend
ments and present them to the present Legis
lature, in order that the city may obtain with
out delay a statute Of sounder constitutionality
and more certain effectiveness"
Speaking for the railroad company. Lawyer
Ira A Place said last night
We shall continue to oppose the BILL but only
on the ground that II would be ineffective and
would not accomplish the purpose desired. The
Mayor himself, shown by his memorandum.
has serious doubts the same subject. A
hearing will be demanded before the Governor
and we shall present our objections then.

A WRETCHED HOUND
and HIS WORK
RESPECTABLE GIRL LUREo HERE
FROM ST. HELEN's FOR DANCE
HALL sERvlcE-LAW WEAK IN
THE cAsE-PoLIcE INTERVENE.

Sam Bashara, an Assyrlan by birth
but claiming st. Helen's. oregon, az
his place of residence, was up before
Judge Anderson at the police court
yesterday. Bashara is accused, and
the accusation is we'll substantiated, OF
bringing girl to this city for i'm
moral purposes. His victim is a re-
spectacle and Woodworking girl OF 10
whom he lured here from Portland,
promising her a position as waitress
or clerk.
On her arrival here she was placed
in dance hall, where by repeated
threats she was forced to remain ,in-
til rescued by the police. Not only
is there no charitable organization In
this city for the protection of girls
travelling alone. but there seems to
be no city ordinance nor state law
for the punishment OF this crime. The
only thing to be done is to send the
man out Of town, which, as he has
already received his money is just
what he wants, and to send the girl
back to the struggle for existence as
best she may, with the hand OF so-
ciety against her. Unfortunate, Of
course, but this Is an open town.

Bad Place for Furs.

From an Exchange.
No longer do fashionable women in
Washington put fortune in furs. Elk
perience has taught them that nothing
is so injurious to fine furs as the warm,
moist weather that prevails at least
a good quarter of the year. The Ba-
roness Won Rosen, wife of the Russian
Ambassador, after learning what dam.
age could be done to her sables, has
sent them to her furrier in st. Peters
burg, and has ordered lighter and
less costly set. The Rosens are rich
in furs. The Ambassador has a half
dozen fur-llned overcoats. and the
Baroness Elizabeth, the only daughter,
can make change Of garments and
neckpieces every day in the week. She
has a particularly fine silver fox jack
ct. But, like her mother, she realized
that many furs are not an essen
tial in Washington, SO her finest speci-
mems also have gone to Russia.
