New York Hernld Bureau.
Albany, March 2.
Mayor Hylan, at meeting before
the traction hearing, told representa-
tives of the New York State Confer
ence of Mayors to-day that Gov. Miller's
transit bin not only infringed on the
principle OF home rule. but paved tho
way for increased fares and the sad
ding on New York city OF it's milk
dried surface lines. He declared that
it should be defeated and his bill per-
mitting municipal ownership and opera
ton OF bus lines substituted.
OF the thirty-four cities represented
twenty-one registered their opposition
to the Governors measure, five favored
it, four were for It with amendments
and four announced that they had taken
no position.
The cities opposing the bill were Am
sterdam. Auburn, Batavia, Bingham
ton, Buffalo, Dunkirk, Elmira, Glen
cove, Glens Falls, jamestown, Lacka-
wanna, Newburgh. New York. North
Tonawanda, Oneida, Oswego, Port Jer-
Wis. Saratoga, Schenectady, Troy and

Syracuse. Gov. Miller's home city;
Cortland, ithaca, Gloversville and
Johnstown. Yonkers, Mount Vernon,
Oneonta and Poughkeepsie asked for
amendments, and no position was taken
by Albany, Utica, Rome and New
Rochelle.
Mayor II. H Farmer of Syracuse, In
defending the Governors measure, de-
clared that 1t Is the "only solution OF
the vexatious problem of public utilities
which has been with US for fifty years"
Mayor Ralph +. Butts of Poughkeepsie,
in favoring the BILL said that the State
should regulate fares and service. but
he objected to interurban lines having
to ask for franchise from each city or
town through which 1t passes
Mayor George r. Lunn OF Schenec-
tady asserted that IL the bill becomes
law the State might Just as well appoint
a State manager for each city and abol
ish city government. He added that New
York is threatened directly by the meas
ure and every other city indirectly
Mayor Samuel A. Carlson of jamestown
advocated the appointment OF COM
mission for each city with transit
problem. He would have these commits
sions made UP of five members each.
one appointed by the Governor, one by
the Mayor, one by the Common Council
one by the employees and the fifth by
the stockholders of the company. He
would then give each commission full
powers, such as the Government gave
the railroad commission during the war.

CARUSO RESTS QUIETLY,
. AS FEVER ABATES
Greatly Improved an Off
ciol Bulletin States.

Enrico Caruso was reported last night
in the Vanderbilt to be resting quietly.
At 1890 o'clock Bruno Zirato, Caruso' 8
secretary, said the fever had continued
to drop and there was nothing to add
to the optimistic reports given out
earlier.
The following official bulletin was
given out at noon by the five physicians
attending Caruso:
"Mr. Caruso is greatly improved His
fever is lower than in several weeks. /"
The decline In the singers fever was
attributed to the operation Tuesday for
the removal OF a secondary abscess. II
was believed the pus had been forming
for some time and that the resulting
fever was preventing his recovery. The
fear now Is that his system may be-
come poisoned or that another abscess
may form. At any rate, his physicians
admit he is still I'm danger. He had only
liquid food yesterday.

FIRST BILL ON MILLER

Reorganization of S. I. C..

Special Despatch to THE NEW yoKx HERALD.
New York Herald Bureau,
Albany, March 2.
Tho first OF the important bills
recommended by Gov. Miller 20 be sent
10 him Is that of Senator Knight and
Assemblyman Brady. reorganizing tho
State Industrial Commission and making
it single-headed body. It passed the
Assembly to-day by vote of 100 to 81.
Little objection was voiced to it on the
floor of tho Assembly. but labor men
who oppose 1t have asked for a hearing
before the Governor. The introducers OF
the bill say that they have answered. by

terfere with what II believes to be Its
right to pass upon this question. think
you have a right to ask What in a
positive character have you done to
try to bring about q settlement of itT
IL It can be shown that the city has
made such an effort and has made any
progress and has any plan for modify
ing these contracts In what 1t believes
to be the public interest. then should
say that 1t was inexpedient to inter-
fere with the progress Of any such
negotiations that might be going on.
but when there Is no appearance or
any such plan, no appearance of such
negotiations, then may suggest with
all due respect to the city authorities
that 1t is hardly in order for them to
to interfere at the same time confess
ing that they have done nothing them
selves to try settling the problems"
The former Comptroller reminded the
legislators how the traction situation
was becoming more serious and the
traction property more impaired every
day through the fact that the companies
are not receiving sufficient revenue to
keep that property up to the proper
standard.
But something that no government
has any right to do" he declared, land
that no people ever intended 1t should
do. Is to stand by while a great property,
such as our traction interests, is beng
imperilled and impaired.
"It is charged that this bill Is for the
purpose Of raising fares. This bill says
nothing about fares except as to the
right Of the transit commission to regu-
late fares. It is the easiest thing in the
world to charge that the bill means an
Increase in fare.
Thorough Inquiry Needed.
"If flve cent fare can be preserved
in this city every man who appears
here to-day either by word of mouth or
by presence In behalf OF these bills be-
lieves in keeping the five cent fare.
But the only way that you will ever
determine whether the five cent fare
can be preserved is to have such thor
ough investigation of the conditions Of
the companies as Gov. Millers bill pro-
vides.
TT is my belief that there is some
water In those securities. If SO let us
take the water out, and that is one of
the Governors suggestions. If 1t is
found that the companies can be sus-
tanned and the city sustained In Its in
vestment upon q f1ve cent fare, then we
will continue to have q five cent fare.
"I want to say that the fare that Is
paid must be q fare which represents a
proper return upon a proper capitaliza-
tion of the companies and sufficient to
take care of the city's obligation. If it
shall be found that that fare is in excess
of cents. may I say to you and the
other members of this committee that l
believe that the people of the city are
f1. f,a% nt, ~ s,f
service. and they are not welded to any
particular figure. II it should be con-
clusively proved to them that that figure
Is an inadequate one"
Mr.. Metz said that there were worse
things than having Mayor Hylan re-
elected but nothing possibly could be
worse than continuing the abominable
traction situation now In New York
Now there is a divided authority. .

amendments. all of the serious objections
OF the labor leaders. and that any further
opposition has little chance OF prevent
ing its approval by the Governor.
Daylight saving repeal and the State
Tax Commission reorganization bills win
probably be the next Of these ON tho
Governors programme to reach him.
The repeal bill was advanced to the or
der Of final passage in the Senate to-
day. The tax bill Is now on final pas

When you undertake to stabilize
railroad securities with their con-

city OF New York you are doing a
one sided and a lop sided and a lert

What sort of legislation is 1t that
permits a railroad corporation to ac-
cept or reject and takes by the neck
the great city and says, III you

your successor In interest we will
become for you a part OF the PLAN?
1t won't do to say that your COM
mission is representing the city of
New York, because the bill in every
line breathes opposition to the city.
I insist that this bill not only Is
contrary to the Constitution OF the
State Of New York but it violates
many Of the provisions Of that of the
United States, too.
This bill makes a mockery of self
government. Homo rule? There
isn't any such thing If the provisions
of this bill can ultimately go into fun

undoubtedly a proper method Of
transportation.
The transit problem has been al

football Of politics.
I can say to you that the oorpo-

framing Of this measure. And I can
say to you that they WIN have no

They wiu be dealt with honestly and
fairly, but more than that they Will

largest possible measure Of home

measure have offered no plan. They
are now what they have been for

Last ight's Dreams
What They Mean
DID YOU DREAM OF CROSSING A
BRIDGE?

NEARLY all authorities agree that
~ to dream of crossing a bridge in
dicates success in business. If you
dream that the bridge is in bad condi-
tion and that you are warned not to
cross it, and yet do cross it, is a sign
that you will rapidly go onward to
success. If you have any difficulty
in getting across your dream bridge,
and yet do SO, it means that you
will successfully overcome obstacles
thrown in your path. Simply to see
a bridge in a dream means that you
will soon be called upon to exert your
self 10 get the better of some private
difficulty or business obstacle. But
don't fall off your bridge of dreams
wake up before you do that. How
ever, if you should fall off, or be
pushed off, or he forced to leave the
roadway to avoid being run over, if
you support yourself by clinging to
the structure it is still a good sign,
for it means the overcoming of diff
culties on the road to success. Only
one authority can be found who re-
CARDS it unlucky to dream of a bridge /;
the almost unanimous verdict is the
other way-except that you should
not fall entirely off the structure. In
that case, or if the bridge ~collapses
under you, beware of false friends.
