CITY TO REACH 5,000,000 Hetty Green Bank Declines Govern ment Deposits Celebrated Lase ot Brian Born New Art Swindle Uses Uncle Sam as Accomplice, NEW YORK. June 26. Now it is proposed to change ureatcr tew York into Greatest New York by a further extension of the citys limits. In the ten veur.s since the organiza tion of the greater city its population has crown so rapidly that is has over flowed the limits then created. Much of this increase has gone into New Jersey and has built up an almost solid urban community in the north eastern part of that state, extending for a distance of from fifteen to twen ty miles from the Manhattan shores. These cities have a population of a million and a uuarter or more and commercially form a part for Greater Vi Ynrlf ahhmteh territorially 01 course they cannot be added to it on account of the conflict of state boun daries. To the northward, however. there is no such difficulty as this and this is the direction in which the city has been growng most rapidly. Ten years ago when the city was enlarged to its Dresent boundaries the north ern part which forms Bronz Borough had a population of only KKXI.WIU and contained ereat stretches of undevel oped land. This has ben built up very rapidly and now has more than Jmv 000 inhabitants. Adjoining New York northern line the cities of Yonkers, Mount Vernon, and New Rochclle have ben trrowine at a tremendous rate and it is now proposed to include these and the intervening sections oi Westchester county in the city, add ing a quarter of a million to its popu lation and bringing the total up 10 more than 4.00.000 with a prospect of reaching the 5,000,000 mark by 1910 The subject is being agitated particu larly by representatives of Bronz Borough who declare that the Brook Kn and Oueens section of the city are favored in public improvements at their expense. Consequently tney want to add to their voting strength on the city boards by the creation of a new borough. This adition, if made, would increase the area of the greater city to nearly 400 square miles but would leave it still only three-fifths the size of methopolitan London. While there are many people who hold that New York is already so laree as to be an unwieldly municip ality it seems to be inevitable that ifc limits wilt soon be extended to take in a considerable addition of ter ritory up the Hudson and along Long Island Sound. intn the ens tank. Mr. Coler who loves a light as well as his terrier does had no other battle on In nanus at the moment. He did not so much mind parting with five dollars of his hard-earned salary uiasinucn as lie i a man of considerable wealth, but lie immediately decided that it was un constitutional for state to delegate police powers to a private organiza tion such as the "cruelty society." 11c thereupon became the champion of oppressed tlogdom and set out to ob tain a legal decision as to the consti tutional' rights-of dogs and their owners. The case has got as far as the Supreme Court of the state but it is likely to be' carried through high er tribunals to the Supreme Court in Washington. Meanwhile the fate of Brian Born hangs in the balance. If he finally goes the chloroform path he will have the questionable satis faction of knowing that his name fig i,r,. in voluminous court report and may be cited in precedents centuries hence. New York is again excited over the dwindling of its export grain trade. The cause of the latest agitation is the withdrawal of five of the great freigh ters of the White Star Line. The commercial interests realize that it i inevitable that much of the grain ,hi,-h fnrm.'rlv nassed through this port on its way to Europe will con tinue to take its course marketward via r.nlf norts on account of the ad vantage in location which the latter rnlnv. What arouse ire in conncc inn with the nrcsent incident is the fact that th grain diverted from this shipping point is going out tnrougn rntre.il and that some of the steam ers withdrawn from here may be put on the Montreal service. The railroad differentials which make grain cost two-and-a-half cents a bushel more in New York than at the Canadian port are blamed for this situation. In view of the fact that the question was fought out before the Interstate Com merce Commission two or three years ago and resulted in a decision adverse to Now York and Boston it is doubtful if anything can be done, but an attempt probably wil be made to secure some concession from the railroads. t x jljjl mm wV' ;l FORM ON I COMKWMT, lf lb FECH1CIMLK H3HO.

One effect of the currency law pas- o,) at the recent session of Congress has been to make ont-of the strongest hanks in the country decline govern mptit dcoosits and return those that it lias nn hand. This is the famous riipmiral Bank of this city. The rea cn fnr this action is not hostility to the new law the fact that it requires banks to pay interest on government ,lnosits. The Chemical pays no in terest to depositors and it argued that to make an exception ot uncle sam would be an unfair discrimination against its other customers. The Chemical Bank is one of New York's institutions in. the same sense as the Broklyn Bridge or Central Park and atmosnhere in spite ot the new building which it recently erected, is miirh more like that of an old world P;tahlished than like the typical hustl ncr American banking house. It win nnt accent deposits indiscriminately and to induce it to take on a new dc positor is like obtaining membership in one of the city's exclusive clubs. The sols concession it has ever been known to make is to furnish desk mom - to its star depositors, Hetty Green, who is reputed to carry the largest cash balance of any bank de positor in the country, running up to four or five millions, and who makes her headquarters at the bank, there by saving office rent. It isn't often that importers over value the articles that they bring into the country from abroad and on which they pay customs duties. In fact the vigilcncc of inspectors is c- oted wholly to preventing underval uation. A practice has been brougnt a lUrlit this week, however, in which rot-tain imoortations are deliberately inventoried at a figure far above their rl value in snite of the additional ilntv nassed. This is in the importa tion of foreign pictures and is a new phase of the bogus art scanuai in which Uncle Sam is involved as an innocent accomplice. The importer of an alleged "old master" which cost as much as fifty or seventy-live not lars when purchased of some un known Euroncan artist has the m voire made out to show a valuation of $1,000 or $5,000 or whatever figure he may select. He pays a duty oi twenty per cent, on this estimate and then shows his receipt to the unsus pecting customer whose bank account i larger than his knowledge ot an. Curh a tirnof of worth is accepted as conclusive and the dealer has no dif ficulty in making four hundred per rf.nt nrofit on his small investment nliis as much as he can induce his vie- tim to nav. The came is saia to nave t.n fokt(l successfully on a number r.f niil('l..ss millionaires who flatter themselves that they are familiar wun most forms of sharp dealing. Tlio rase of Brain Boru threatens to become historic in the legal annals of the country. The Brian Boru reter red to is not the celebrated Irish hero but a. terrier of the same nationality belonging to Borough President Bird S. Coler of Broklyn who was torm erly Comptroller of New York, and later the Democratic candidate for Governor. In an evil moment Brian Boru wandered from home and fell into the hands of one of the dog- catchers employed by the S. P. C. A Mr. Coler. whose actions do not be lie his pecular first name, hastened to the rescue of his pet only to be in formed that he must pay a fine of $3 and a tax of $2 or else see the re doubtable Brian go the way of many another less highly pedigreed canine AS THINGS ARE.
