follow the London idea. and you
have lower rates, there will be
hrst class oars. as men will have
some chance to keep their cars
riSht. There never was an ordi-
nance passed allowing a taxi 90
cents a mile. as At present
IL would seem from the above that
the drivers generally want strict rules
so that an equitable service may be en-
toyed by all concerned. Under tho pres
ent system the public hickman is being
Disseminated against and therefore can
not be on q par with the London and
Paris cables, where all must give equal
service at uniform rates.
Also tho drivers are beginning to re-
alise that II this condition existed in
New York which IL generally conceded
to have a more spending public than
that of London and Paris, that they
would make more money and with
lower rates would enjoy more fares and
tips than at the present high tariff The
London cabbies are gradually year by
year arriving at tho noint OF owning and
operating their own cars. which tends
toward moro efficient and careful SER
vice. A. has also been found to be the
case here. according to Police Commas
smioner Waldo.
DRIVERS WHO FAVOR LOWER
RATES.
At the public hearing william Thiel,
owner Of two independent taxicabs,
said that he was operating under tho
thirty cent drop. and that his book
showed an income OF % 1-3c. for every
mile his cabs travelled. He was very
well" satisfied with the reduced rates
and thought II could he reduced further
with the private stands abolished.
do you ind that you are getting
more business under tho reduced rates7"
he was asked.
Yes. sir. and believe Il will even
tuaily get me larger business than
before the reduction"
Another driver. George H. Hart, driv-
Ing his own car for two years, was
asked. I'm your opinion would q thirty
cent drop incresse the number OF your
passenGers n universal in your city?"
TT certainly would" he answered.
''rf this board should make more pub.
Tic stands and do away with tho special
permits. do you think a '3o-cen. drop
would enable you 10 run q car profltably
II tho car cost you elsO0f'
Certainly" ne answered.
| Apropos Of this. Alderman Courtlandt
Nicoll. who 10 q nephew Of De Lanca,
Nicoll and has consulted the lawyer 70
garding the proposed new taxicab gov
er-ine laws, declares that the compa
mics can exist under the 3o-cent rate
and really flourish providing prope,
management and operation follow.
Said Alderman Nicoll: IT studied tn,
taxicab question while abroad. havinl
occasion to visit in my researches tn,
principal large cities. I obtained from
Scotland Yard a printed schedule O
rates IN vogue In London since the ad
vent Of the taxicab. These schedule
reveal a rate that does not. but whic
should. prevail In New York. The SOS
Of taxicab travel in London. the man
agement Of taxis. the behavior OF driv
ers Of such cabs and the general al
around control are 90 vastly .differen
from conditions In New York that ther
II no comparison"
In London in the last three years tn
taxicab service had increased approx
mately from 2.0<s cabs TO 8441 cabs.
According to Mr.. Ducasse Of tn
Mason-Seamon Company. the number Q
taxicabs has decreased every year I

vegetables do well. gathered "a bush

A Review Of the Old Year
BY A. A. G.

Another year has been added
To the calendar of time:
Another year is forever gone
From your life and from mine..
II has brought us many joys,
Many blessings bright and true;
But, alas 1t too brought sorrows,
Bitter heartaches not few.
Though it brought us brightest joy
Many pleasures rare,
In it we saw our highest hopes
Go down in darkest despair.
Though it brought us opportunities
1t too, disappointments brought;
For our greatest expectations
Have come, alas, to nought. S~
But thou--we should not tell of this,
We must remember it no more.
Perhaps it's best for us,
And something better stills in store.
Could we but look in the future, 4
These, perhaps, would be stepping
stone
To lead us safely on
To higher, richer joys yet unknown.
We see our mistakes of the old year /;
How selfish and unfeeling we've been /;
We see our faults now, but too late
Could we but live II over again
