Can 1t Be Done?
or Of The Tribune.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: 1t would be most Illuminating 20 your
readers if you would show how the Mayors
garbage proposition can earn the enormous
profit he says it would yield that is, save
the city 100000, which he says is the pres
ent cost of garbage disposal, and earn an
additional profit of 81 100000, making $1,000
900 in all, and all this on an investment Of
S9,OOO,OOO That is over % per cent net profit
on the investment annually.
There are few lines of trade of any kind
that will yield that enormous profit. mean.
of course businesses which are unprotected
by patent rights and which are not virtual
monopoles.
II there IS such an enormous profit in gar
bage 1t is wonder 70 me that great many
have not engaged in that line
of business. IL seems that any one would
put up s90OO,OOO to make S2,4OO,OOO a year
particularly on ffteen-year contract. but
even tive-year contract would not be so bad

enty vessels. But Great Britain alone mas
launched more than 900 new merchant
ships within the last twelve months
II may safely be affirmed that IN no
other naval war has Great Britain suffered
so little from attacks on her commerce. IN
the four years 1860, for instance she
lost more than $500 merchantmen, and
even in 17Gl, when the commerce OF the
enemy had been swept from the sea almost
as completely as German commerce to-
day. the enterprising French prlyateers
succeeded in capturing at least 500 British
vessels. These losses had not the slightest
bearing on the outcome Of the war nor Is
there any good reason to suppose that the
losses of the Allies, including the ravages
Of the submarines operating off the Brit
ish and Irish coasts, will have any bearing
on the outcome of the present war. They
have served, no doubt, to encourage the
German public, but that is all.

THE TENEMENT LAW RIPPER
Commissioner Murphy Applauds The
Tribune's Stand Against 1t.
To the Editor Of The Tribune.

10 the Editor OF Inc tribune.
Sir: / cannot omit the expression of my
grateful feeling for the splendid work which
The Tribune has done in trying to uphold
the cause Of the Tenement House Depart
ment against the insidious attacks made
upon it by the same group Of men that every
year seeks either to abolish it or 10 dimin-
ish its opportunities for usefulness.
The Lockwood Ellenbogen bill might have
been better known as the Jekyll-Hyde bill.
because it had at the outset the support Of
some entirely well meaning and honorable
citizens Of this community who sought re-
lief from what they believed to be the seri-
Gus depreciation Of the value Of their prop
critics and an interference with their rea-
sonable rights.
That there was some ground for their
complaint is not seriously disputed, though
have seen no conclusive evidence Of its
existence in any such considerable number
of cases as would justify the extent of the
agitation based upon it. was among those
who suspected from the beginning that the
source of the agitation was really a desire
to nullify laws for the better protection Of
homes and workshops which had been passed
by the legislatures of the last few years.
The bill stands to-day without a single
sponsor who can be suspected Of an unsef-
ish interest in IL. The alternative measure
proposed would accomplish that cousolida-
ton Of inspection and responsibility which
was the pretended basis of the whole move
ment, but without opening the door TO the
notification Of the law. VIII the sponsors
of the Lockwood bill accept the
compromise measure proposed by the City
Club? If not, they stand confessed Of dis
righteousness in their attempt to enact a
measure under the guise Of consolidation
which would have really meant notification.

Merchantmen May Mount Guns.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: In your article Submarines and Solid
Shot" ] am astouished TO sec that you hold
the erroneous view that armed merchantmen
lose their non-combatant character and may
be rightly regarded as warships. Merchant
men may at all times carry guns according
to international law, for the purpose Of sig
mailing or repelling unauthorized attacks.
In time Of war, an armed merchant vessel
of belligerent nation may have guns mount
ed on the stern of the vessel without losing
its character OF a non-combatant, as was
proved in the case of the Carpathia some
months ago, when this vessel arrived and left
This port uurestraiued.
AS the error is liable 20 become an excuse
for our hypheratcd friends in their justifca-
zion of Germauy's criminal campaign on the
innoccnts I therefore wish 20 draw your at
tcntIon 20 that point. AFRlCANUS

Donald Nicholson.

Mr.. Donald Nicholson, who died yeSter-
day. was for nearly thirty years managing
editor. for much Of that time also acting
editor. of The Tribune. His connection
with the paper covered in all about forty
five years, from two or three years before
the death of Horace Greeley, its founder
and first editor, down TO the present. He
retired from active service in 1908, but
retained the vice presidency of the Tribune
Association, which he had assumed in 1898.
His whole career as a journalist was spent
in the service Of The Tribune, to which he
gave a professional devotion which never
wavered and a running-oyer measure OF
personal affection and loyalty.
As secretary to Mr.. Whitelaw Reid
(then managing editor and after Mr.
Greeley's nomination as n Presidential
candidate editor-in-chief) Mr.. Nicholson

Brides and Pancakes.

The pies, the biscuits. the what not
that mother used to make have figured in
song and legend for generations, but not
until recently, in Newark, did they re-
ceive legal recognition. Now some Jersey
Judge will have to decide whether or not
Mrs. Esther Beyensee is entitled to $4,000
because ON occasion her husband, Edwin,
preferred his mothers pancakes to her.
II is a nice question, involving ones rela-
tive appraisal Of good cooking and love,
but rather perplexing to ones sense OF
chivalry. For how could anything be
more tempting than mothers pancakes or
more alluring than the brides company?
Mr.. Edwin Bevensee found the counter
attractions Of the two as strong as the
white horses which used to pull people
apart to suit the whims Of ancient mon
archs. Time was when a son was son
until he wed, or words to that effect, but
that was before sweet brides became more
plentiful than the pancakes that mother
used to make. To-day, therefore, the
competition between mother and bride APP
pears more nearly equal.
If brides would restore their former as
cendancy, let them profit from this domes-
tic dilemma, sign Of a degenerate age, and
learn again to duplicate those pancakes.

Another Fidelity Trust Company

To the Editor Of The Tribune
Sir: We noticed in the press reports Of the
receyershlp proceedings Of the international
Mercantile Marine Company, published with
IN the last few days that reference is made
to the Fidelity Trust Company" as being
the trustee for the second mortgage bond
holders and co-defendant in a legal suit.
Any reader would naturally conclude that
this refers to the Fidelity Trust Company, Of
New York, and We therefore beg to say that
this company has no connection with this
matter IN any way, shape or form, nor is it
interested either directly or indirectly in any
OF the securities Of the International Mer-
camille Marine Company
VIII you kindly give due publicity to this
letter so that any readers may be properly
informed, and the inaccuracy referred 20
promptly corrected?
We understand that the Fidelity Trust
Company referred to is located IN another

Billy Sundays Terms.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: John Henry Smith is probably an au-
thority on revivals. Indeed, am quite will
ing to concede his right to speak of the af-
fair which took place, he says, thirty years
ago. | am quite willing also to believe that
it was real revival because it had strong,
truth-loving men behind it. But when Mr..
Smith undertakes to tell your readers that
Billy Sunday demands, as a condition prece-
dent to coming to New York, the sum of
1000, I ask to be permitted to say that he
ceases to be veracous authority.
am we'll acquainted with Mr. Sunday per-
sonally, and know the conditions upon which
he always accepts invitations. He never
asks for any pecuniary guarantee. If Mr..
Smith would take the trouble to get into
communication with the Philadelphia COM
mittee which invited Sunday to that city, the
Paterson committee, which performs the
same function, or any other committee in
any town where the evangelist has preached
since he entered the work Of the ministry, he
will get convincing proof of the error of his
assertions.
Billy Sunday has not asked New York 20
raise $4,000 or $4,000 cents for him. He
has not said that for $4,000 he would drive
the devil out Of New York. Mr.. Smith may
be the innocent dupe of some slanderer who
has told him these things.
| know the conditions upon which Mr. Sun
day will come to New York. These were
made clear in a special article of mine in
the Sunday Tribune several weeks ago. He
will come here if there is unanimous call
for him. He will demand that all expenses
be provided for and that a tabernacle, with
seating capacity of at least 10000. be erect
ed lie will ask that the local churches pro-
vide for the entertainment Of his party and
himself and that choir commensurate in
size and quality with the Importance of the
occasion be trained and prepared.
When all these conditions are met, when
the debts Of the committee are paid and
when the last Sunday OF his visit arrives he
will take free will offering. If this is large
he will gratefully accept 1t; If it is small he
will be satisfied. These are the conditions
They are final and absolute. Any man who
says differently is either ignorant of the
facts or he deliberately conceals the truth
viii be quite willing TO give Mr.. Smith 500
TO be devoted 10 any charity he might select
if he will prove that Billy Sunday ever asks
for a pecuniary guarantee for himself

The Last of the German Commerce
Destroyers.

With the KronprinZ Wilhelm i'm Hamp-
ton Roads. apparently for the purpose Of
interning. as the Prinz Eite Friedrich did,
the German campaign of commerce de
struction on the high seas virtually comes
to an end. The cruiser Karlsruhe is still
unaccounted for but no sign of activity has
come from her for several months past.
In all probability she was wrecked or
foundered.
The Kronprinz Wilhelm left this port
on August 3. 1914, and has kept the sea
a little more than eight months. In that
time she captured and destroyed fifteen
merchantmen, most of them British. Her
chief sphere of operation was the South
Atlantic, and speed, combined with good
luck and good generalship, enabled her to
elude the hostile cruisers set on her trail.
Her career, like the career of the Prinz
Eitel Friedrich, is a tribute to German
seamanship.
But. taken all in all, the exploits Of the
German commerce destroyers on the high
seas have been of very little military
value. The shipping destroyed is only
tiny percentage of the strength of the
allied merchant fleets. The Allies have
retained complete control of the seas, and
their military operations have never been
interfered with. Great Britains COM
munications with South Africa, India,
Australia and Canada have been kept alb
solutely intact, and her sea-borne trade
with all the neutral nations has continued
without serious hindrance.
In these days of wireless communica-
ton the task Of the commerce destroyer
tthe limited activity Of the submarine
excepted has become extremely difficult.
The Alabama alone in the Civil War did
vastly more damage than all the German
cruisers together have done in this war.
They have captured perhaps sixty to sew

A Visitors Questions.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: II happens frequently that it takes a
visitor to see us in proper perspective. 1t
was visitor who asked these questions:
"Why do pay only five cents to ride four
teen miles in the subway, and AZ cents to
ride the same distance in the city on the Long
Island Railroad"
"Why does the city permit grade crossings
in Queens County and forbid the same in
Kings"
why are the people OF Long Island taxed
for the city's subways when apparently they
derive no benefit from them?"
Being unable to give an intelligent answer
pass the questions to you, Mr. Editor. as
proof that it is others who can see US as we
really are. CHARLES II. GEORGE
