CITY ACTIVITIES

The Boston Globe calls attention to the
fact that municipal ownership is not new
in Boston. The early mayors Of the city
sought to pay off the city debt by the
sale of lands. They made 5000, 900 on
the Boston Neck lands and about half
million on two other projects, but lost
a million and half on the South Bay
and Back Bay schemes. On the FIVE un-
dertakings the city is ahead about 81. 800, :
000.@ The greatest municipal undertaking
the Globe remarks, was the Quincy mar
ket which paid for itself in 1913, and
has returned = an aggregate profit Of
$3,O00,0D0 since.
A municipal ownership assemblyman of
New York has introduced bill for a "
cent fare on all railroads in the state.
The present passenger rate is 8 cents. but
works out about cents on the roads
which have competition. The lower fare
Is supposed to meet conditions in New
York when Ohio can successfully demand
2-cent fare.

IMPORTATION OF RUBBER.
Attributed to the Popularity Of the
Bicycle and Automobile.

The United States will have imported an
aggregate of nearly or quite $50, 900, 900
worth of crude India rubber at the close
ment made public today by the bureau of
statistics of the Department of Commerce
and Labor If to this Is added the value
of old and scrap rub Der intended for re-
manufacture the total will considerably
exceed that amount. In the ten months
ending with October, 53,500,O0O pounds of
India rubber. with value of Sal SOC, 900,
were imported. During the single month
of October $5.O00.O00 worth of this product
found its way into this country.
The enormous growth In the importations
of India rubber into the United States,
which consumes more than one-half of the
worlds production, is attributed to the pop
ularity of the bicycle and automobile,
coupled with the Increased use of cleo
tricity in the daily affairs Of the people.
The importations of this product into this
country have more than trebled during
the past twelve years, and show now
larger value in the import list than almost
any other single product.
The statement shows that the value of
India rubber importations has increased
more than 200 per cent in decade The
increase is attributed to the great demand
in the various parts of the world for the
use of this product.
The statement says the indications seem
to justify the belief that the Philippine and
Hawaiian islands are capable of producing
large quantities of this article. as a result
of this governments establishment of nur-
series in those possessions for the distribu
tion Of rubber plants for use Of rubber
plantations.

AGAINST THE RAILROAD.
Right to Cross Street Denied by Mary
land Court.

ANNAPOLIS, Md, December 20.-Judge
Burke delivered an opinion in the court of
appeals last night in the litigation between
the Northern Central Railway Company
against the Canton company, which in
wolves the right Of the railway company
to lay and maintain tracks across a GER
tain avenue located upon the Canton COM
pany property. This appeal was taken
from decree of the circuit court for Bal
tfmore county, which perpetually enjoined
the railway company from laying certain
tracks. and the court of appeals affirms
the ruling Of the lower court. In affirming
the Baltimore county court the court of
appeals holds that by the true construction
of the lease of October 1, 1873, the North
ern Central railroad had no right to lay
any tracks across 18th avenue connecting
its elevator and ore pier with Its tracks
on the north side of said avenue. The costs
in the case also go to the appellant.

BRIDAL TOUR TO AFRICA.
Sea Captain and Wife Spend Honey
moon in Strange Lands.

NEW YORK, December 20.-Capt. E. w.
Day and his wife came ashore from the
British steamer Arcs Castle yesterday after
a wedding trip which had extended over
1900 miles. The first and second officers.
with most of the members of the crew,
lined the rail to wish the shippers bride
goodbye. The trip to them had been
memorable one not only because the Arcs
Castle came from Delagoa Bay in twenty
eight days-very nearly a record passage
but because of the presence on the freighter
of the captains bride
Capt. Day was married in Philadelphia to
Miss Tryon, pretty American girl, last
July, and it was at his suggestion that his
bride accompanied him on the long voyage
to South African ports. The fact that she
was to be passenger created great inter-
est among the ships officers, and when the
news became known there was shining
of buttons and a sharpening of razors
which would have flattered the bride had
she known it. This feeling was intensified
when the day before the Arcs Castle sailed
Mrs Days piano was swung over the side
and her pet collie Jack Davis came TO take
possession of the vessel.
Mrs Day. who had never before been to
sea, was the life of the steamer from the
time her blonde head appeared over the
companionway until she bade the officers
goodbye yesterday.

YARDMEN'S ULTIMATUM.
Strike in New York District if Five
Cent Increase Isn't Granted.

NEW YORK, december 2O-Unless the
railroads now in controversy with the yard
brakemen and conductors in the New York
harbor switching district grant by Satur-
day the demand for an increase of cents
an hour a general strike is to go into effect
Immediately.
This ultimatum was sent last evening to
the general managers of the roads by
James Murdoch, fourth vice grand master
of the Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen,
who arrived here yesterday from Cleveland
He went into conference at once with the
local committees of the men and then de-
cided on the strike unless the demands
were granted by Saturday The ultimatum
was sent to the general managers of these
railroads: Central Railroad of New Jersey,
Erie, Delaware, Lackawanna and Western,
Lehigh Valley. Long Island, Baltimo and
Ohio, and Staten Island. 1t says:
Again referring to the negotiations be-
tween yourself and the committee repre-
senting your employees, yardmen in the New
York harbor district, we respectfully beg
to advise you that the cents an hour in
crease offered by your company is not &C
ceptable, as a settlement has been made
with the New York Central for cents an
hour increase. Your yardmen employed in
the New York harbor district and those
employed by the New York Central have
heretofore been on an equal basis as re-
CARDS the rate of pay per hour. We be-
lieve this equality should still continue to
exist.
We beg to advise you that unless the in
crease granted by the New York Central
namely, cents per hour effective Deem
Der 1, 1906, is conceded by your company
ON or before December %, 1906, all men,
bers of the Brotherhood of Railroad Train
men employed in your yards in the harbor
district will consider your failure to con-
cede the rate as a refusal to deal as fairly
with your men as the road mentioned
above, and will at once withdraw from
your service.
The strike vote was taken week ago,
but the ultimatum was unexpected eSpeci-
ally in view of the action of the engineers,
firemen and conductors in deciding not to
strike in sympathy. The men in these three
branches made agreements with the rail-
roads several weeks ago by which their
wages were increased.
