THE SCANDAL or HYDE.

II is not for newspaper 10 pass jung
ment on City Chamberlain Hydes guiit
or innocence of bribery as charged III
the indictment. But with regard 10 his
continuance in office there are no TWO
opinions possible. If we accept the e&-
planation nut forth in Hyde's defence or
the transactions on which the indictment
is based HYDE is unfit to remain in once
a day longer. Though he himself makes
no proper Acknowledgement of that fact
he had the grace last night to announce
his forthcoming resignation. The Mayor
also has seemed TO he unaware that the
Chamberlain had morally forfeited MS
office but it may be assumed, we trust
that ne will promptly let him go.
Conceding that the $4,000 obtained
from the Carnegie Trust Company by
Hydes secretary for IIyde's own use
was loan. as Hydes defence represents
IL to have been. it was a grossly I'M
proper transaction. 4 scrupulous Gus
todian of public funds would not think
of borrowing without security from a
bank which he had made depository
OF those funds. Such loans have been a
common form of honest graft prac-
tised by public treasurers bent upon
enriching themselves while IN office by
any means short Of stealing. But this
unsecured loan, accepting the explana-
ton issued in Hyde's behalf, is made
oven worse bv the secret and underhand
way in which il was obtained. Borrowed
in another mans name, assuming that
it was merely borrowed, and handled
through his account In another bank, ap-
parently for purposes Of concealment, the
money makes its way to Hyde's pockets,
we might say, furtively. The transaction
is dishonest as the grand jury views IT,
and dishonorable as Hydes defence ex-
plains il.

THE TARIFF ON SHOES.
the Editor of The Tribune.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: notice the statement In The Trib-
une that IN 1910 the importation Of shoes
from Great Britain reached the value of
$1,000 The Tribune made the statement
that the figures were not large, but that
they indicated a striking increase. With
the 10 per cent duty removed, as proposed
by Chairman Underwood's free list bill,
shipments might be expected 10 reach a
much higher figure.
think Il is we'll worth noting in this
connection that the total imports Of shoes
from all nations for the last six months OF
1910 were $4,000. as compared with $4,000
during the whole year OF 1902. Not Eng
land alone but Germany. Austria France.
Switzerland and Canada are sending shoes,
and there is every reason TO believe that
figures for the current year will greatly
exceed the mark established In 1910. even II
the duty remains as It IS.
The average profit OF the American shoe
manufactures does not reach 8 per cent.
This bill therefore Is Offering to foreign
manufacturers, already on a level or better,
bonus OF double tho profit TO the Ameri-
can manufacturer, TO encourage him 10 ship
his goods 70 this country. The whole prop
osition I consider ono Of the most aston
ishing that was ever placed before Con-
eress
II IS 10 be remembered that the duty
on shoes had already been reduced from
q per cent to 10 per cent % per cent on
kid shoes). Certainly the American manu-
facturers Of shoes might reasonably have
expected TO ne let alone, at least until there
had been some equalization elsewhere in
the way of other commodities and raw ma
,eriaI ". C. TAYLOR,

" HIS. HEAD. TOO.
Said the Mayor to his new Depu
Police Commissioner yesterday:

Said the Mayor to his new Deputy
Police Commissioner yesterday:
OF late you have heard concerted cry
that there are an extraordinary number
Of robberies and holdups In the street
and no one arrested therefor. This OF
course, has encouraged every robber ana
crook TO come forth and ply his trade,
and / suppose you will have some trouble
With them. As a matter of fact such
crimes were entirely normal when the
cry began.
So the Mayor at last acknowledges
that there is now an abnormal amount
of crime in this city. 1t matters not
that he gives different explanation Of
the wave of crime from that generally
accepted. The wave of crime IS now
an official fact, and the new deputy Is
told to expect trouble. Lecky, Epictetus
and st. Augustine are temporarily laid
on the shelf as authorities upon New
York conditions and the Mayor has got
down to brass tacks. He has, so 10
speak. like the rest Of the town, got
"crime in his head"
