Brooklyn, June 18 1SD7. CARS WITH HIGH STEPS. Tliey Are a (Source of Much Discomfort, Says a Reader. To tho Editor of tho Brooklyn Eagle: It is certainly an outrage on the public that tho Brooklyn Heights Railroad Company is allowed to run cars with steps as high as It dees. The cars I refer to particularly are tho ones with double trucks made of the old cars.

Ono of the members of my family is slightly lame and invariably has to wait for ono of the now cars. I do not be llevu there is another city In the country which would put up with such inconveniences and quietly filt by without at least entering a protest. Personally I can go to any place within reason, but when I get In and out of these cars with such very high steps I always am afraid of falling and see many who have to grapp the handles and let themselves down very carefully, particularly women.

To tho Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle: Tho people of Brooklyn are learning to look to you, not only as a bureau Information, but as a friend, particularly the class who most need friendly counsel for which they havo no other source of supply. The latest annoyance comes from the dread of the threatened tax upon savings bank deposits no trifling calamity for small depositors who may havo tolled and pinched for years to lay by a littlo fund for time of need.

As wo read the law, and as it was, doubtless, Intended to bo understood, all deposits are free from taxation, not only for banks, but equally so for the dopositors. Must the interpretation of ouo man, who would be wiser than the other millions of tho state, be permitted to be supreme authority? You reply to one "Wonder lns "Savings bank deposits are exempt from taxation." If you have legal authority proving this to be a positive fact indisputable, will you not assort it, giving such reliable authority for your statement that all disturbed minds may be at rest? If there be the least weak point in the law, any spot into which one seeking notoriety may Insert one of his digits, that point should be strengthened at once, and made so elear that no question can hereafter be raised upon tbo subject. Thoro seems to be a by some bank oflleia.1 that depositors should tost the question. ITow can one having but from $1 .000 to $3,000 (tho limit) afford to consult legal authority? How can depositors entire unknown to ono another unite upon tho matter? Would not a public meeting of depositors only "glvo them away," affording an opportunity for the assessor to learn who are depositors? How docs this fact become known? Surely banks will no: betray the trust reposed in tbem by depositors. It.

appears to mo that the banks are the ones to lest this question, for It is certainly to t'heir interest. What is to proven tho people withdrawing their money? If the majority should do so what use would there be for so many such Institutions? Please let the people know that all that Ks necessary is to transfer their money to hanks In other states. A large proportion of the people of Now York have only to ste; across the boundary and be in one of six states, one of which must have at least one reliable savings bank. And they need not fear withdrawing their money lust they lose It in transfer. All they will havo to do is to show to tho proper ofTlcer of the bank their bank book and gKvo proof that they have tho amount of money they wish to transfer, and such transfer will be made on paper, with, no troulblo whatever on their part.

There would, of course, bo a little loss of Interest at first. SURROGATE'S NOTICES. THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, by the gTace of God free and Independent To Ellen S.

A FIGHT FOB CONTROL. The Twentieth Ward Side of the Controversy. To the Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle: From the tone of the article in yesterday's Eagle referring to the proceedings at the organization of the Tenth assembly district committee held at 417 Carlton avenue, the evening previous, one would naturally think that the contest was merely between Messrs.

Hag gerty and Dooley on the one side and Mr. John J. Moran of the Eleventh Ward and myself on the other for the control of the district organization. This is not so and in jus eice to the Twentieth Ward side of the controversy I think it but fair to correct that impression. Mr.

Dooley and who have been the executive members of the Twentieth Ward for the past two years and who are good friends to day (at least I have no ill feeling toward him), differed as to the policy to be pursued in the organization of the new district. He preferred to have it controlled by his Eleventh Ward cloBe who naturally would be more than friendly to his interests. The writer, with at least two thirds of the delegates of the Twentieth Ward, while not desiring in the least to embarrass or injure ex Judge Haggerty in his candidacy for the shrievalty nomination this fall felt and insisted that the Twentieth Ward, having three flfths of the election districts and delegates of the whole assembly district, should have at least a one half interest and share in the control of the district organization and that the wishes of the delegates from the Twentieth Ward as a whole should be respected and recognized in the make up of the various officers and county committeemen from that ward and also that they, and not the Eleventh Ward, should have the right to name the executive committeeman who was to represent the Twentieth Ward. The writer advocated calling all of the delegates from the Twentieth Ward together and after a full and fair discussion of the matter to select an executive committeeman, six county committeemen and two of the four officers of the district committee, agreeing to support whoever might be selected. Mr.

Dooley did not approve of this suggestion and when an open caucus was called to meet on Wednesday ovening at the very hall which Mr. Dooley had previously designated to the committee of thirty two, of which he was a member, as the place for tho holding of the meeting on Thursday of the delegates of the assembly district for the purpose of and notwithstanding the fact that every delegate from the Twentieth Ward, Mr. Dooley included, had received a card inviting him to be present, Mr. Dooley sent a letter to a number of these delegates, which appeared in the Eagle of Thursday, asking them not to be present on Wednesday evening. About half a dozen of these gentle men appeared at the caucus and were indignant at the attempt to secretly influence them to remain away, and everyone at the meeting was at a loss to understand why any Twentieth Ward delegate should object to having his fellow delegates meet him in an open, manly manner for the purpose of discussing the various matters to come beforo the meeting the night following.

The meeting on Thursday evening was held back and not called to order until about 9:30 o'clock to give Judge Haggerty a chance to arrange matters with a half dozen of his own ward delegates, who were said to bo np posed to him, and when he succeeded at the time before mentioned, Mr. Dooley called the meeting to order. If Judge Haggerty had not been successful, it Is hard to tell when the meeting would have been called to order. The six delegates selected by Mr. Haggerty to represent the whole Twentieth Ward in the new county committee for the coming campaign actually control four election districts and two of them were prevented from going aa delegates to the district committee at tho late primary.

Mr. Dooley's side delegate from his own dlBtrict voted against him to uphold the Twentieth Ward's right to manage its own affairs. Mr. Marlborough would never have been elected from the Fifteenth District (where there was no contest) had it been known ho intended to vote as he did. Mr.

Cal'laghan was repudiated by his own district (the Fifth), and when he found himself beaten he refused to vote at the primary, although tho young Democrats of his district opposed to him cast 73 votes out of 102 cn the roll to demonstrate his absolute inability to control tho district. Mr. Frost could not get on the successful ticket as delegate in the Third District. Mr. Jenmott carried his own, the Second District, by a small majority.

Three years ago ho controlled thirteen districts against Mr. Dooley In the assembly convention, in which Mr. Jennett was successful in getting the assembly nomination. Mr. O'Connor carried his district, tho Fourth, a contest at the late primary and controlled the two dolegates from the Eighth District.

These aro tho six gentlemen now on the county committee. To get Mr. O'Connor three or four votes and thus win, Mr. Dooley agreed to g'o on the ticket with and swallow three political enemies, who have boon losing sleep and spending their nights as well as days for the past six years in the endeavor to defeat him. Well may ho be congratulated on his skill as a taotlcian.

Nearly all of his old friends of the Twentieth Ward, who havo stood by him in many political battles, and it was only, when a few of them in particular, began to stand very close to his side that he achieved any success, were, I am sorry to say, opposed to him In this last contest. The young fearless Democrats of the Twentieth Ward stand together to day stronger than ever and know now without a doubt, who their friends are, as well as their foes. They are in the fight to stay and will be heard from later. The contest, on their part, on Thursday evening last was a protest against foisting upon tho Twentieth Ward, men who aro not representative of it, merely to gain the neceseary few votes to control the assembly district.
