leasor, on February 10, 1915, that IT had
decided TO take the Equitable lease be-
cause IL could save money. an offer OF
sl.S6 WAS made.
Mr.. Mason testified that Commission
er Hodge told Mr.. Rogers in his pres
ence that the Equitable offer was for
Sl39 a square foot. The witness said
he had no knowledge of the rate finally
put in the Equitable lease, but the low
est offer he knew of was for Sl39. He
said The Tribune had offered the re-
CURED space, with the necessary altera-
tons, for s1.30 a square foot after the
lease had been signed.
do you suppose that IL you had
offered the space at 81 square foot
the commission would have stayed y
asked Senator Lawson, of the committee.
The witness expressed no opinion.
Mr.. Mason was asked IL he had heard
that Governor Whitman had declared
that he would get the commission out
of The Tribune Building because of its
previous opposition TO him. An editorial
from The Tribune in regard to the Gov
ernor's threat" was spread upon the
records of the hearing.
In the course Of his testimony DR..
Allen referred TO the proposed West
Side improvement and the relocation
of the New York Central tracks as Civ
ing the railroad a terminal freight
monopoly on the West Side. He de-
clared that the proposed plan put out
by the port and terminal committee OF
the Board of Estimate was deceiving.
He branded one of the pictures of tho
improvement given 10 the newspapers,
depicting the district near Grants
Tomb, as more than misleading.
Hints of Graft.
Henry B. Seaman, former chief en-
gineer of the Bubble Service Commits
sion. who resigned September 2l, 1910,
submitted lengthy statement TO the
committee in which he described the
utterly demoralizod" condition of the
body which led him to resign. He de
cared that contracts had been let on
an extravagant basis and intimated that
graft had prevailed. He submitted
facts and figures to support this con-
tenton without calling the commits
sioners by name. but designating them
by numbers, as No. /, No. 2, etc.
Frank Moss, counsel to the commit
tee, read figures into tho record, taken
from the printed 1918 report of the
Public Service Commission, TO show
that the foisting Of scent fare on

CARE OF CHRISTMAS PLANTS

TAYHAT is to become of all the
 " Christmas plants that are de
 livered from the florist at Christians time? Perhaps it would be as well for those who like to see things growing and dislike the thought of anything dying not to seek the answer for l have no doubt that many which have been for the time greatly admir- ed will in rapid succession follow the same course to a common fate-the trash can.
 To some, of course, such a fate is more or less inevitable under the best of care. For instance, q poinsettia could not be expected to last all win . ter. and it might not be enjoyed if it did. being distinctly plant of the Christmas season. However, it may De kept in n fairly healthy condition for several weeks if it is kept in somewhat warm room and watered sparipSly. And when it does begin to fade t should be remembered that il is capable of serving other years Of usefulness after this one. So if you have no way in which to care for it give 1t 10 some friend who has her own place for keeping plants.
 To care for the plants that have come to you in comparatively good condi- ton is not difficult task. for They probably have been given sufficient fertilizer to last for some time. and therefore that particular want need not be considered for the present But they will need attention in three things water. heat and light
 In watering remember that flower ing plants require. as q rule. plenty of water. particularly aZaleas. cyclamen and bulbs. The lovely little ardisias. with their red berries. can be given less water: also geraniums. Heather has strong roots. and the mistake is often made Of watering it too much for it's small roots are in very fine mesh. and they hold the water and are liable 70 rot If given more than they will absorb light away Orange and lemon trees will take more By this it is not meant that one should keep the plants soaked pcrpetually. Let the soil begin to get dry again after each watering before more is applied. This is safe rule Cor all potted plants.
 Ferns require liberal watering and frequent shower baths though the lat Ter should never be given to the deli cate maidenbair ndiantum. although it requires much water at it's roots and likes a moist atmosphere
 The ordinary room temperature is satisfactory, or at least bearable. to most plants that come from the florists although azaleas will do much better f allowed to stand at least part of the lime in cool place.
 Sunlight nay be given to the dra ,enas. crOtons ,both foliage plants. geraniumS. also narcissus and other bulbs until they bloom partial sun light to tho bcsonias and ardiSias. but Inc ferns will do well without direct fight Adiantum should never be put in drafty place.

BRITISH PASTOR
 RAPS PRESIDENT

Continued From Page One) rages reported upon strict inquiries. He knows of the sinking of unarmed passenger ships. like the Lusitania and Arabia. without notice or warning He knows of the murder of Captain Fryatt, of the nocturnal deportations of Belgians and French into slavery. He knows of German connivance at Armenian massacres. And yet he is of the opinion that the nations who are leagued to disarm this evil de- moniac of national militarism have the same aim as the perpetrators of these crimes.
 Wilson Oeranged? ..
 President Wilson has either in a fit of mental alteration sent the wrong note. or he has entirely mis- apprehended the European situation.
 These things are black and vile. The very thought of them on Christ mas Day makes one studded. Does any one suppose that peace would be honorable which regarded the assail- ants and the defenders of humanity as having in view the same ends ? What kind of unity of aim do you eX- pect between. wolves and sheep dogs over the heeces of the torn lambs?
 Peace on the basis of such hy- pothesis would be only an armistice giving an exhausted adversary a much needed interval for recupera- tion before renewing his unsuitable passion for the hegemony of the world and the destructions of his rivals after a savage war"
