Sheriff Knott Suggests
That Fees Be Increased
Taxpayers Should Not Be AS.
sessed to Aid Individual
Litigants, He Saws

Sheriff David H. Knott Yesterday
sent to Nathan Hirsch, chairman of the
Mayors Committee on Taxation, a sug-
gestion for the raising of additional
funds for the city.
Sheriff Knott has decided that the
fees of his Office. as we'll as those
charged for service in several other
public offices, are too low. The Sheriff's
office, like the offices of the County
Clerk and the Register. is in a differ
emit position In its relation to the pub
lie than are such departments as the
Police, Fire and Street Cleaning.
These latter render a direct service
to the city, and for their support a tax
is levied on all property owners. In
the Office over which Mr.. Knott pre-
sides the service is almost entirely of
a personal character rendered to indi-
viduals interested in litigation.
Fees are now charged, all of them
going to the city, but it is supge sted
by Sheriff Knott that they are not
high enough. He suggested to Mr..
Hirsch that they should be increased
so that the Office can be made self-sup-
porting, which will relieve the taxpay-
ers of the city from contributing to
the upkeep of an Office from which
they may never have any direct serv-
ice.
On the suggestion Of County Clerk
William F.. Schneider the fees in his
office were increased some time ago.

vored the Barnard. Evidently few
knew that the substitution had been
contemplated, the majority stating that
their opinions had not been asked"
The result of the poll was sent to
Great Britain, whose Commiss Toner Of
Works, Mr.. Butler said, evidently had
been confirmed in his view that the
entire American committee favored the
superior substitute" by cable mes
sage sent to him November Is, 1917,
"signed by the executive chairman of
the American committee, giving lists
of those who enthusiastically praise
Barnard's Lincoln and the names Of
the presentation committee"
These lists of enthus astic admirers
of the Barnard statue likewise were in
vestigated, with the result that "many
Of those Intercepted advised that they
did not favor the Barnard statue or
that their names had been used, as
even in the case of the President of
the United States. without authority"

graduating the National Academy of

might read the freshly announced
names OF the members of the military
staff of Governor AL Smith (who was
present as guest) and was given
permission. He began with "Adjutant
general, T. Fortesque Cod; military
secretary, E. Stuyvesant Founder"
and so on, until the Fulton skarket fish
were all represented.
Whereupon the POSTMASTER said:
We'll, we'll, that's some catch and it
refutes the campaign notion of Mr.
Whitman that Al. palled with the
Oliver Street low brows. Too bad
the staff is not here"
This was a cue for the "staff," which
entered all clad in sweaters, jumpers,
caps and carrying jimmies and black
jacks. They passed among the diners
singing THE Bowery," and medley of
old-time airs like "The Market On
Saturday Night"
The ominous looking "staff" had
just disappeared and Governor-elect
Smith was just about able to sit erect
once more when Mayor Hylan or
rather P. T. Rellihan, in red wig
doing his best to look like the Mayor
broke in on the diners, demanding per-
mission to make a speech.

Dy myself, Iom, he said.
That will be a novelty. Let US have

Has Hearst's Approval
The "Mayor" asked that an officer
Of the society be delegated to escort
him to the rostrum, and POSTMASTER
Smith appointed Director William
Leary to "show the Mayor up"
II need not remind you Intelligent
citizens the way the war went in
France, the Mayor said. l am too
modest to claim all the credit for win
ming the war;, but Mr. Hearst assures
me I had every bit as much to do with
it as he had"
After that Toastmaster Smith called
Luther Titles attention to the fact
that Mayor Hylan has appointed Mr..
Hearst to welcome the soldiers back
"Yes," replied Mr.. Little, "but the
soldiers will have their gas masks"
What do you think Mr.. Hearst will
say to them ?" asked Mr.. Smith.

complain of the cold. President Smith
directed him to the City Hall, where
there always is an abundant supply of

there are some things that even a devil
won't do, and visiting the City Hall
just now is one of them. After Satan

The row was over the refusal of the
waitress to give him second helping
of sugar.
No Sugar for Murphy
President Smith offered mediation
after the waitress had dropped tray
of dishes to the floor and began to
shake red fist in Mr.. Murphy's rotund
countenance. Oscar was summoned
and took the waitress away while Mr..
Murphy protested that he merely asked
for some sugar and the waitress in
suited him.

he added.

Smith. you've handed out so much

the city's requirements for the pres
ent. BY locating an Il freight struct-
ure approximately 80 feet in width on
the marginal way, which averages 300
feet IN width, there would be no prop
erty damages to be paid by the city to
the owners of buildings facing on West
Street, and, of course, there would be
none to be paid for property affected
out shore of the structure.
at has been suggested that one of
the methods that might eliminate the
objection of an elevated freight rail
road and at the same time not involve
the prohibitive cost that subway
would entail would be the placing of
four or six tracks for the accommo-
