$500 February Receipts of
Owner Of Two Cars at
Mountain Lakes.

No line Of vehicular traffic, not even
long distance, has undergone transition
and improvements in so brief a period
as the hack accommodation at sub
urban railroad stations within fifty
miles Of Manhattan.
The first type was the numbering
stage, with either horse or team
driving il. II seated about a dozen
passengers, and the driver loaded il to
its capacity, or as full as he could get
il. and then with a "giddap' to his
animal he would drive of. Following
the usual rule of first come, first served,
he would deliver the passenger fret
whose house was handiest, then next in
order. and so on until all we're IN
loaded. In winter the passengers bur-
led their feet in straw on the stage
floor and huddled together on the seats
like chickens on roost to keep warm.
Later the two-seated hack supplanted
the stage in the more enterprising SUBJ
urban towns, these being usually sur
reys that were pleasant to ride in in
summer and which were made as COM
Portable as possible in winter by the
buttoning of curtains on the sides Of
the vehicle for shelter from wind and
storm. but in the severe months they
were made hard 10 enter and alight
from. With such a vehicle the hack
man could deliver two or three passen
gers on one trip from the station.
That method was considered an i'm
provement until some hackman. more
enterprising than others, carried pas
sengers to and from the station in
hrougham. This kind Of carriage was
cool in summer and warm in winter.

study the question OF city planning
ord realty speculation. whether or not
a oreat citv could be divided into sep
arste districts for home and business
use. without destroying opportunities
for profit taking in realty.
For some decades the city has had
some highly restricted home areas. and
those restrictions have no. only kept
out unsightly and Objectionable build
ines. but the value of properties IN
those districts has steadily risen while
adjoining places with miscellaneous
buildings have been blighted with
decline. No sections, except very
few, have escaped the realty distress,
confusion and uncertainty that follow
promiscuous building, and the leaders
have suffered not only from SHRINK
age of profits but from a diminishing
business.
The Commission on Dstricting has
spent months in making a thorough
survey Of the city, and 1t has drawn
I'D boundaries for the proposed dis
tinct home, business, Office and fac
tory areas, and the Board of Aldermen
will soon hold public hearings on these
zones. Some citizens are expected to
ask for a change in the lines of certain
sections, but the real estate fraternity
does not anticipate any strong protest
to making the work of the Commission
on Districting legally binding on all
owners and lessees. The commission has
not sought to find a remedy for Grad
icating present building evils. The civic
movement in Fifth ave. is launched in
hope of putting an end as quickly as
possible to existing factory nuisances
in the area from 33d st. to 10Th ST.,
Third av. to Seventh sv. II will be no
easy task to find within the next few
years suitable accommodations for
most of the manufacturing concerns in
the district.

Leaders Unlikely to Frown
on Plan to Remove
Factory Nuisances.
Nv ARTHUR T. NICHOLSON.

The movement 10 eliminate factories
from the area bounded by 33d and osth
sts.. Seventh and Third ayes, has been
launched at a time when the master
minds OF the real estate fraternity OF
the greater city are in receptive at
titude 20 consider seriously such a
plan. There is every likelihood that
there will not be dissenting voice on
this important subject among these
realty masters, and that men Of lesser
rank in the local realty centres will do
nothing not in harmony with this gen.
ersl tendency OF affairs.
These realty masters are confronted
with a situation that is largely the re-
suit of their actions. 1t was they who I'M
hesitatingly opened their strong boxes
at the pleas for money 10 erect lott
buildings in and near the heart OF the
principal shopping, hotel, amusement
and railroad distric. of Manhattan. IL
was they who did all in their power TO
encourage this intrusion into the sec
ton, instead of putting barriers in the
way of any one devising schemes TO
locate manufacturing concerns there.
A glance at the miscellaneous char
acter of any district of the city might
lead a person unacquainted with the
realty market TO infer that the market
has no leaders. In many blocks are
modern apartment houses, factory,
a garage, conservatory Of music; a
building for physicians, and stables
and even some other kinds OF struct-
ures, the factory, garage and stables
detracting from the value Of the block
for residence. In other blocks milk
bottling plants will be found in the
centre of home bailiwicks, and il there
is a more sleep destroying plant than
the one where milk bottles are cleaned

TO BUILD AT JAMAICA
Title Guarantee and Trust Company to
Have Fine Home,

A building is now being planned by
II. Craig Severance and william Van
Allen, architects, for the Title Guarsn-
tee and Trust Company, at Jamaica,
Long Island.
The building will adjoin the present
quarters, in Fulton 81. The increase
Of business due to the rapid growth OF
Queens and Nassau counties has forced
the title company TO increase its fscil-
tiles for handling the increase in bust
ness. Special attention is given to the
comfort OF the employees. Large. airy
locker rooms are provided, with dress
ing rooms and shower baths, and COM
Portable rest rooms will be found on
the upper floor for the two hundred
women employees.

WILLIAM STREET
SUBWAY EXITS
Seek to Find Solution of
Problem at Conferences
To Be Held.

At the meeting which was called b.
the Public Service Commission, upon
the request of the Advisory Council of
Real Estate Interests, 10 consider the
matter 90 subway exits and entrances
On William Street, it was decided b.
the representatives. OF the commission
end of the city that wherever possible
these subway approaches should De
made through buildings and not be
placed on the sidewalk.
Travis II. Whitney, Leroy I. Hark..
ross and Sig Cedarstrom represented
the commission and DR.. l.. 7. Goodrich
the Borough of Manhattan, while real
estate interests were represented By
T.. c. Cammann and the secretary oil
the Advisory Council A number OF
possible approaches were presented by
Mr. Goodrich, who has thoroughly in
vestigated the buildings along the sub
way route, while Mr.. Riegelman, now
Sheriff of Kings County, but who while
a member Of the legal staff Of the Pub
lie Service Commission had charge OF
this matter, outlined the work which
lad been done in obtaining proper en-
frances upon the premises OF Kuhn,
Loeb e. Co. and the Bank of America.
In order to interest property owners
in giving their consent TO having exits
and entrances placed through their
property, the plan of William Barclay
Parsons for arcades in several build
ings along William Street was thor
oughly considered. II was the decision
of the representatives of the commis-
sion and the city that no entrances
could be obtained by purchase, but
must be obtained through the property
owners consent.
With this purpose in view, IL is pro-
posed TO specify to individual property
owners along the route just what ad-
vsntages would accrue 10 them from
approaches in their buildings, for no
property owner would consent 70 such
an arrangement unless the benefit was
decidedly TO his advantage.
The final arrangement made between
the real estate representatives and the
city officials was that conferences
should be held between property own
ers along William st. and their agents
in the rooms of the Real Estate Board.
in order to make tentative plans for
these meetings, a preliminary confer
ence will shortly be held between Mt.
Cedarstrom, Laurence McGuire, presi-
dent of the Real Estate Board, Mr..
Cammann and Cyrus c. Miller.
II is understood that at subsequent
conferences efforts will be made TO
obtain the consent of the various prop
crty owners interested in this matter
and thus find solution TO a problem
which has for some time perplexed
both the Public Service Commission
and real estate owners, who object
strenuously to interfering with traffic
on William st. by the erection Of
kiosks or exits and entrances along
side of the buildings.

Auto Bus Popular in the Suburbs

ment in vehicles, the elimination Of the
horse and the coming of the automo-
bile brought the jitney bus into use.
For q few years this vehicle was in
strong favor at suburban railroad sta
tions.
Now the taxicab is the fsvorite vehi-
Gle for transportation at suburban
railroad stations as we'll as in the city.
The utility of them TO suburbanites is
we'll proven at Mountain Lakes, y. j..
where the owner of two cars made
more than $500 in the month of Febru-
airy carrying commuters TO and from
the station. Meeting all trains, these
taxicabs, with others, demonstrate how
far an advance has been made over the
advantage the stage coaches offered.
The surrey and brougham are now
back numbers, being relegated, with
hack horse, TO the limbo of antiquity.
Taxicabs convey passengers 20 and
from Mountain Lakes station 10 all
parts of the place in less than five
minutes.
