The elephant with the Sparks shows
which attacked Mrs Minnie Green dur
ing circus act when the company
was playing in Richford few days
ago. has been killed, the second shot
bringing the animal down, but seven
more being fired into the huge body
The killing was necessary because att
er the circus reached New York state
the elephant during a performance at
tackled Louis Reed, the menagerie SUI
perintendent, at the some place in the
routine of the act that Mrs. Greene
was attacked. The elephant knocked
Reed down and rolled him, as it had
done TO Mrs. Green, but the attend-
ants were prepared for the act and
drove the elephant off, after which 1t
attempted to strike several of the
women attendants of the show who
we're standing near. That determined
'Mutt's" fate and his death took place
soon. Three ex-service men, with 40
calibre rifles, finished the animal, which
was chained up in the elephant car.
Mrs. Green, who is still in the st. Al
bans hospital, remains about the same.
Mr.. Reed, the later victim, will soon
be about, but on crutches.

New-York tribune., 1921-12-13
The City and the Port

In his attack on the Port
Authority's plans Mayor Hylan
speaks the language of long ago,
when the chief constituents of a port
were pier and ship lying along
side it. A modern port is some
thing different. 1t must be termi~
nal for land carriage as we'll as for
sea carriage. Development Of port
facilities on land must 60 along with
development of piers and channels.
In the old days Manhattan Island
was port Of itself. But the modern
Port Of New York includes all the
waters of the adjacent bays and
rivers. 1t overlaps state boundaries.
1t embraces hinterland in New
Jersey in which lie the terminals of
all but one of the trunk railroads.
The New Jersey half Of the port
area is vital to any scheme of up
to-date port development. Territory
in this state outside New York City
also figures in the port district.
1t is childish, therefore, to rail,
as the Mayor does, at the Port
Authority as an agency created by
the Legislature in violation of city
home rule. Control of the port as
it now exists is a state concern. 1t
is the concern of the two states, New
York and New Jersey, which have
entered into a port treaty. 1t is
the concern, furthermore, of the
United States government. New
York is the nations chief port, and
very large part of the country is
interested in it's efficient and eco
nomic operation.
The Board Of Estimate and Ap-
portionment's point of view is
parochial. The city cannot insist
on developing it's part of the port
In its own way and in way
antagonistic to the other parts
without inviting disaster. Nature
has given the New Jersey side su-
perior terminal advantages. The
wise thing to do is to pool holdings
and harmonic interests. The Port
Authority seeks to accomplish this,
and its project will benefit this
community much more than any
separatist municipal projects could.
The city administration should wake
up. This is 1921-not 1871 or 1921.
