TRAINING DRAFT COLTS.
Youngsters Should 30 Broken Early to
Use of Halter.


There is pretty well rooted idea
among those who raise colts that some
advantage lies in allowing colts to run
without handling until time to put
them to regular work. such system
insuring more perfectly broken
work horse. saving time end generally
being more satisfactory No doubt
familiarity breeds contempt In the
horse as well as In the man. and the
horse that Is made pet surely often
turns out a bad actor and unworthy
Of the attention he receives Is there
not a medium road to travel In this
colt training. especially when draft
colts are under consideration? It Is
certainly foolish to waste time train
ing colts that would be as well of
without good deal of the handling
At the beginning. however. we may
be sure that halter handling from a
very tender age is essential 1t is one
thing that colt never seems to learn
well after he has become large and
strong. and Il horse that does not step
up promptly to the halter aud that
does not firmly believe that his con
nection with the man at the other end
Of the halter is absolutely unbreaka
BILE is surely more or less nuisance
for his full life. and that generally
means for twenty years or more u
long time to contend with any nni
sance
As to the advisability Of further
training Of the draft colt before he Ia
past two there may we'll be sOine
doubt Our drafters take naturally To
work In harness. some actually sten
ping into regular work the first time
harnessed and eventually becomina
true and energetic workers But per
haps this requires unusual ability an
patience which II Ia extremely dOnhi

MCCALL ATTACKS mitchell.

enced subway bill Veto.

The first criticism OF Mayor Mitchell by
Edward T.. Mccall since the Mayoralty
campaign is contained in statement
made yesterday. Mr., Mccall. as chair
man of the Public Service Commission.
calls attention to the Mayors veto of the
bill raising from $4,000 to 100000 the
amount of contracts which the commits
sion could let without public bidding and
permitting the commits sion to finish sub
way work itself when the contractors
fail.
Mayor Mitchers veto viii be very
pleasing to the Contractors Association
he said. 80 far as I know. the only
opposition to this bill. either in Albany
or before the Mayor. was by a repre-
sentative of that association who de-
nounced the bill because 1t provided for
municipal construction
AS the law now stands. all work in
connection with rapid transit, no matter
how trivial. must be by contract, and
such contract, no matter how trivial. must
be submitted to the Board OF Estimate
and Apportionment for its approval"
After reading the statement the Mayor
said that he had been guided By the
opinion of Mr.. McAneny and Mr. Prem
dergast. and not by that of the Contrac-
tors Association.

MARKETS BILL Is
VETOED BY MAYOR
Says He Approves Of It's Intent,
but That It Is Poorly
Drawn.
SIGNS BUILDINGS ACT
Doubts It's COnstitutiOnality
and Will Have It Tested
in the Courts.
SIGNS BUILDINGS ACT

Mayor Mitchell vetoed Yesterday the
Pollock bill giving the city a department
OF markets with five commissioners and
public wholesale market in each borough.
Although he doubts the constitutionality
of the bill empowering the Board OF Esti-
mate to regulate the height of buildings
he signed II and will have II tested in
court.
Mr.. Mitchell disapproved OF the markets
bill reluctantly. He said the solution II
proposed for cutting the cost of living had
great merit. but that the bill was poorly
drawn and seemed to be mandatory.
whereas the Board of Estimate insists
that IL should be only permissive. Cyrus
c. Miller. chairman OF Mayor Gaynor's
Market Commission. which was for the
BILL told the Mayor yesterday he was now
convinced that its language was not clear
and ne urged a veto.
Apparently the Mayor was impressed
with the argument o: opponents OF the
bill at the public hearing that the bill as
drawn might give monopoly of Ganse-
wort Market traffic to the New York Cen
trail Railroad. for in his memorandum OF
veto he says:
1.-THE Board of Estimate and Apportion-
ment with the approval Of the Mayor is
authorized to grant connecting spurs
from any railroad operating main line
tracks. This language might be construed
10 apply only 10 railroads having main
line tracks in the city al this time and
thereby create monopol!es OF service.
section 1860 of the proposed bill
gives the market board power to make
rules regulating traffic in and about ter
minal and other markets am afraid
this prov !slon is too broad and that 1t
would conflict with the Police Depart
ments traffic regulations. The word
about would be almost certain TO cause
a conflict OF jurisdiction"
The Mayors objection 20 the height
of buildings bill was that the courts
might construe II as providing for seizure
OF property without due compensation.
President McAneny. chairman OF the
height OF buildings committee. which pre-
! pared the bin. thought 1t was cons:itu-
tional and the Mayor signed II that the
courts might decide. The bill permits the
Board OF Estimate to divide the city into
residence and business districts for pur-
poses OF building regulation.
