TO see new 10TH Slty III &IiiSoe Anvil
day morning, July 23rd when fleet
of city owned buses, guarded by a
Gordon of motorcycle police, wendell
its way from the Pennsylvania hotel
to the City Hall. In this connection
it may be interesting to learn that it
wasn't so many years ago that the
territory in the vicinity of Brooklyn
bridge was the "heart" of things as
far as New York city was concerned.
Advancement has materially changed
this condition and at the present time
the heart of the city's activities may
be said to radiate from Times Square,
near 42nd and Broadway, the, theat-
rical district.
When the party reached the city
hall they were escorted to the Council
Chambers. After all were seated
Mayor Hylan and some of his depart
ment heads were escorted to the
presiding officers stand where the
mayor was introduced by President
John Brimblecom of the Editorial as
ISOLATION. Mayor Hylan has been
twice elected mayor of Greater New
York, the second time by an increased
majority, with the opposition of every
newspaper in the city, save and ex-
cept the Hearst papers. Of course he
had the backing of Tamany Hall.
In his address to the newspaper
men the mayor devoted most of his
time criticizing the newspapers, par
ticularly the Metropolitan press, and
one would easily gather from his talk
that he was of the opinion that he
: was about the only honest man in this
great city of cver7, 10000 people:
The only man the Herald editor has
ever heard speak who uses more
capital "I's' in given length of
time, is Senator-elect Magnus john
son who addressed the people at the
Stearns County Fair, last week. In
this respect New York's mayor would
run Minnesota's dirt farmer states
man a close second. The Herald edi-
tor may be perhaps a trifle cynical, or
perhaps we are bit narrow minded,
but Mayor Hylan did not "sen" him
self to the writer, as we could not
help but believe that he was playing
to the galleries in his address, posi-
bly, being of the opinion that he IS a
potential candidate for President of
United States.
After leaving the City Hall, a visit
was made to Trinity church, Broad
way and Wall Street. William Brad
ford the first printer and publisher of
New York and Philadelphia is buried
in the little cemetery adjacent to the
church. The ground occupied by this
cemetery is probably worth million
dollars. After wreath had been
placed upon the grave by Mrs. Wal
lace Odell, wife of the new president
of the editorial association, fifteen
minute service was held in the church
with an address by Rev. w. B. Kin
kaid, senior curate of Trinity.
p
At 1890 the party were taken to
the Equitable building in the Wall
Street district where luncheon was
served at the Bankers Club on the
4Oth floor of the building. This build
ing is near the south point Of tie is
land that carries New York proper.
One can get a most comprehensive
view of New York from the 10th
story where the luncheon was served.
The editors were addressed by H. L.
Doherty who gave the luncheon, and
by Seymour Cromwell, president of
the New York Stock Exchange. Fol-
lowing the luncheon the party were
escorted through Wall Street and the
Stock Exchange by Mr.. Cromwell,
where they were permitted to see the
"bulls" and "bears" in action. The
visitors gallery where the editorial
party was located is about Is feet
above the trading floor where 20
standards are placed about the room
each with shelves to carry notebooks.
IJpon the wall to the right is black
board where figures appear and then
disappear. These figures meant moth
ING to the visitors but to the men on
the floor they spoke volumes. Hun
dreds of thousands dollars worth OF
stock are bought and sold here every
day by mere nod of the head, or
spoken eyes" which are afterwards
carried out eyes, is binding upon
all trades who are members OF the
exchange.

Later in the afternoon many OF the
party visited the new home OF the
New York Tribune at 225 West doth
