MAYOR OUTLINES PLAN
FOR MUNICIPAL RAIL WAY

CHICAGO, Dec. 20.--dayor Harri-
son outlined a plan Lass night in dis
cussing the possible results of nego-
tiations now pending for the merger
of surfaae and elevated street rail-
way lines, whereby all local transport
tation facilities. including a subway
yet to be built, may become the prop
erty of the city without the payment
of any money from ths treasury.
A new ordinance would be drafted,
according to the plan, which would
provide that the city have the right
to take over the entire plant on a
valuation and capital account to be
decided upon in advance. The city
would have, as in the present plan,
share in the net receipts. and that
share, instead of being placed in the
city treasury and left there for the
requirement OF the lines at some fu-
ture time, would be turned over year
by year as it is earned to the. com
panies for the reduction of the capi-
tai account.

NEW YORK. Dec. 2o.-A brave

Among the Progressive Economic
enthusiasts are Mrs. William Grant

of the persuasive sort" Mrs. George
Baskowitz, who with DR.. Baskowitz
founded and supported for several
years the Manhattan Visiting Nurses
Association, and Mrs. George Kerr,

produce be canned and held over un-
til winter when the preserved vege-
tables could be sold to the university
dining halls and to the various upper
class eating clubs AS result, a
make-shift factory was installed in
the basement of one of the dormi-
tories and here several of the self
supporting students worked through
out the summer and early fall can
ming the various vegetables grown on
the farm -
AS the project, even in such a crude
form, proved an unqualified success,
plans for enlargement were immedi-
ately taken up and it is expected that
a plant costing In the neighborhood
of a thousand dollars will be installed
next spring. IT will be placed on the
university farm and win be operated
entirely by the Nassau undergradu-
ates. It is expected that practically
all of the produce raised next year
will be put up in the permanent
form at the factory, and that the
plant will furnish means of support
for at least ten students.

RIPARIAN REVENUES OF
STATE si7S,7i6 IN 1912
State Board Makes Annual Re-
port to Governor.
IFrom a stan Correspondent.I

IFrOm a Sfaf Correspondent
TRENTON. Dec. 2o.-The State
Riparian Commission today submitted
to Governor Wilson it's annual report
showing that. the revenue received
during the fiscal year amounted to
$17s,716. This amount is less than
that received in any one of the past
five years. The report attributes the
falling off to the unsettled condition
of the commercial interests.
The report says that with the i'm
portant question of the policy of the
government settled for the next four
years the commission now looks for
ward to successful year. The COM
mission states that not only will
pending applications be pushed to a
satisfactory conclusion, but the nor
NAL business of the board will be
resumed
. The receipts of the commission for
the year were made up of grants,
$75,813; lease. annual rental, $36.75;
conversions, $76,23S.60: rentals on
leases, e,61065; interest on grants
delayed in acceptance, s1s.25. The re-
port says that a number of appliea-
tions for riparian lands are awaiting
the conclusion of Governor Wilson
and the commission. The aggregate
of these may reach 100000.
