PAYING FOR TWO PROVINCES.

Austria Hungary is just now coming to par
tlcularly direct and not at all agreeable realiza-
tion Of the pecuniary cost of that annexation
OF two Balkan provinces which last year was
regarded with much eXultation. Almost ex-
actly a year ago, under the ambitious urgings
of Archduke Francis Ferdinand and his loyal
retainer Count AehrenthaI the Dual Realm
abrogated the Treaty Of Berlin so far as ar

thing TO add nearly 10000 square miles Of ter
ritory and more than 100000 inhabitants to
the empire, with more than 1,OO0 miles Of rail-
roads ana a foreign commerce of $45O00O00 a
year. Popular rejoicings and exultation were
great. Despite the diplomatic complications
which arose and the complaints OF bad faith
which were widely maGe; the sovereign was

WHAT ABOUT AUTONOMY

The CALLED jade winces. and it is from Senator
Pat McCarren, to whose organization Murphy
humorously assigns Justice Gaynor as its share
of the city ticket that the loudest protest comes
against the action of the Tammany convention.
'Tammany," says Long Pat" "is aiming to
grab the Board of Estimate and AppOrtion-
"ment." OF course it is. Everybody knows that.
But it is aiming to grab something much dearer
TO McCarren than the Board of Estimate and
Apportionment-namely, McCarren's Brooklyn
organization The Controllers Office shelters
a large part Of the McCarren following. It is
full Of district leaders and of workers on whom
district leaders rely to retain their districts.
With the patronage of the Controllers Office
out of his hands, what will be left to the
Brooklyn Senator with which to keep up his
fight for the autonomy" Of Brooklyn?
How will the jealous BroOklynites to whom,
according to The Brooklyn Eagle" autonomy
is sacred" regard the prospect Of Tammany
using Justice Gaynors candidacy to batter down
the defences that have hitherto kept Murphy
on this side Of the bridge? That the peril is
real enough any one can see who reads McCar-
ren's passionate attack upon Tammany in the
convention and his plea that in the division of
the provender something more than the husks
be passed to him. If there is any real feeling
for autonomy in Brooklyn it will surely be
manifested in resistance to Tammanys attempt.
with the aid of Justice Gaynor's candidacy, to
cross the bridge. Here is test for BrOoklyn's
love of autonomy.

the pretty general conviction that the increased

cause widespread and vigorous opposition in
both Austria and Hungary and will enormously
increase the difficulty Of maintaining the part

of the present forebodings are realized, the an

SETTLING THE poLAR DISPUTE

proofs 10 a suitable commission the National
Geographic Society has done Well The pro
posal will commend Itself 10 the judgment al

and Of the general public not associated with
geographical research

Peary's pecuniary backing came mainly from

was president he may properly submit his re-
port 10 that organization at its next meeting.
but we cannot imagine that the officers of the
Peary Arctic Club OF the explorer whose name
New-York tribune., 1909-10-02

it hears win hesitate TO facilitate in every way
open to them the examination now suggested
by the National Geographic Society. It is GER
tainy for their interest to accept the invitation,
and We must assume that it is equally to the
advantage of DR.. Cook TO dispel uncertainty
regarding his achievements with the utmost
prOmptness. If his case depends on records
and apparatus which he has left in Greenland.
the sooner he undertakes TO recover them the
better. If he has promised to show his records
first to the University OF Copenhagen, that In
stitution will doubtless release him from the
pledge
Too great attention cannot be given to the
choice of a commission to hear the evidence. II
its members are not to be nominated by the
explorers, II is fair that they should approve
them. 1t Is extremely desirable that men or
international reputation should be invited to
serve. There are enough such men IN the
United States, but general confidence in the
verdict might be strengthened If such distin-
guished Europeans as Sir Clements Markham,
Lieutenant Shackleton and DR.. Nansen should
join in the work.
