All of the Public Service Couimlsslouerj are of equal power, have the same vote and exercise the same functions, and tha fact that ono man is appointed as chairman does not, under the Public Servici Commission act, give him any authority whatsoever over the other members 0 the board.

Wasblngton, April 3 The Brooklyn Navy Yard will not build one of the fuel ships which were authorized In toe Naval Appropriation bill passed in 1912. for both of them have been assigned by Secretary Daniels to tho Mare Island Navy Yard on the Pacific Coast. UnUss shipbuilding operations are to be suspended at tno Brooklyu jard after the oattleship Xew York is out of the way, it ill he necessary for Brooklyn la 3eeur.j the battleship which was author- nM.i ui. I j.i acuums voia SHIL'B im eific Coast for construction.

Secretary Dank took advantage of the wording of the paragraph which authorized thg two colliers. This paragraph read: "Twj fuel ships, not to exceed $1,140,000, and wuich tlull be built iu navy yards, one ou the Pacific." Tne iuteution of Congress was that ono chip should be built 011 the Pacific Coast and one on the Atlantic Coast, It being understood that either Brooklyn or Norfolk yards would get the latter vessel. But es the law did not specifically say Unit one vess3l should be built on tbo Atlantic Coast, Secretary Daniels felt ii'ia to send them both to Mare Ieland, which submitted the lowest bid. This will do no Injury to the shipbuilding Industry at the Brooklyn yard, providing the dreadnought battleship authorized in this year's bill Is Bent there for construction. If Brooklyn got one the fuel ships it would not have been able to haudle tho battleship without in-creaso of yard facilities.

The last naval bill requires that tho battleship be built 11 a government yard. Brooklyn at the present time is the only yard equipped handle a vessel of such size. Thero will be 1 loud protest at the Xor-foly yard, however, over the sending both fuel ships to the Pacific coast. The Norfolk people expected to got one of these vessels. It Is now likely that Xorfolk will make a fight to get the battleship, and if it should be successful in that.

Brooklyn will be left with no construction werk after the New York out of the way. Assistant Secretary of the Navy Franklin D. Roosevelt will arrive at the Brooklyn Navy Yard on Saturday riorntiig next, for the purpose of inspecting the Government's biggest, plant, lhe Secretary leaves Washington this ifternoon t-j attend the wedding of Miss Ethel Rosevelt'dt Oyster Bay tomorrow. Although no official Information hs been given out as yet concerning the construction of the dreadnaught for which appropriation was made In the last session of Congress, there are interesting Indications that the keel of the giant Washington, April 3 The Democratic majority of the House Committee on Ways and Means reassembled today at what was expected to be the final meeting before the tariff revision bill Is laid before the Democratic caucus next Tuesday. With the points of difference between President Wilson and the rommlttee settled by au agreement on free raw wool, the Interest shifted to a lerge extent to free sugar and the details of the Income tax plan.

Members of the committee were prepared to receive a final word from the President regarding the tariff measure and to devce much of today to consideration of the income tax. There was a possibility of a change in the provisional rate of 1 per tent, on amounts above the exempted $4,000 a year, running up to 4 per cent, on or more a year. In connection wim the framing of the new permanent feature of the government revenue system, consideration of the question of flexibility of the rates so as to meet emergencies in government needs has evuked an Ibsus as to the constitutionality of any provision that would permit the President, by proclamation or otherwise, to chance any Income tax rate. The income tax plan will absorb much of the administrative details of the present corporation tax law, will be administered by the present, but enlarged, Internal revenue machinery of tno Treasuo Department, will be based on the Incomes for a singlo year's operations, Instead 01 an average of a number of years as had been suggested to the committee. The cost of the collection of the tax, it la estimated, will not exceed 1 per cent, of the aggregate revenue from tnat source.

It is figured t.hat probably at least two-third of the income tax revenue can collected uraer the principle of collection at the source. The purpose of this method is to minimize the Inquisitor. ni features and lcRBon the basis of individual complaint. Th's is largely base! on the working of the law in Greit Brit ain, which, according to the information leid before the committee, collected from an Income lax. As to all incomes by which the tax Is so measured and paid, the Individual tax-paver would not be required to make a personal return.

The Government, corporations, copartnerships and persons paying annual earnings to employes or other persons In excess of the minimum taxable Income now provisionally 54,000 would deduct and withhold this tax and turn it over to the Government, a method that wonld likewise apply to mortgages and lessees of real or personal property. The taxpaver, under the proposed system, would not, in the bulk of cafes, come in contact with a revenue official. will be laid down at the Brooklyn yard.

That, in any event, was the date for beginning the work which was announced In statements issued from the Street Cleaning Department. Hut as yet th clean-up has not and the Finance committee of the Board of Aldermen, which was asked to approve the expenditure of J37.O00 for the extra expenses of the clean-up, has not yet acted. There Is small likelihood, It was stated at City Hall today, that the clean-up will ever be undertaken. Opposition to the proposed appropriation of tiie money necessary has developed In the Board, based upon Section 1176 in the Charter, which gives the Health Bonrd authority to compel owners of premises where there are accumulations of waste likely to prove dangerous to lifo and health to remove the saute at their own expense.

"As a matter of fact," said a member of tiio flnaneu committee this morning. "This looks like au attempt to get the city to go in end do at Its expense what should done nt the expense of owners or tenants. Either the Health Department or Tenement House Department may abate any rulsince may compel those responsible for It to abate It. Why, then, should we engage hundreds of trucks cud wagons to do what the peo-pla responsible should do." There has been a marked falling off in enthusiasm on the part of those desiring a clean-up since the first of the week. Last year, when the matter was first suggested, the city departments were constantly receiving reports about the littcrcd-up and odoriferous condition of streets in certain tenement house ne'giiborhoods.

Accordingly, Health Department offljials. street cleauers. Boy Scouts nud others made a concerted attack upon "King Dirt" with effective results. The Mayor on Tuesday, however, went through the East Side with a special view to ascertaining whether the streets wt re fctill Iu an unsanitary condition. After returning to office he declared that he had found that a Kreat improvement had taken place as a result of police "Those streets," he, said, "are Just as clean as Flatbush avenue.

Curran of the finance committee of the Board o' Aldermen, Bald today that the requeft of the Street Cleaning Commissioner for funds, Rhie'n was made after the Health Coni- missioner had stiffened that such a step he taken, could not acted upon before Monday, as there will be no meeting the committee before that time. He declined to express himself as to the likelihood of the measure being approved or no I At that same meeting the of Dr. Iilerlo for with which to wape war upon mosquitoes in Brooklyn, Queens and Richmond will ho considered. This will probably pass, but not without opposition.

HYDE APPEAL IS ARGUED. New Trial for Former City Chainber-ldin May Result. The appeal of former City Chamberlain) Charles H. Hyde from bis conviction S3 a i bribe taker before Supremo Court Justice GofI last fall was argued yesterday before the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court in Manhattan. No decision has been rendered yet, bu; from the questions asked by the justices of ths court it was considered not unlikely tha! Hyde would get a reversal and be granted a now trial.

The attorney for Hyde was John B. and the prosecution was represented by Assistant District Attorney Jonn K. C.ark, who work-id up the evidence in ai! the banking casts, which resulted in the conviction of several e.v-batikers in Manhattan. The two points at issue iu the legal aspects of the esse were, first, whoiher Hyde had reaped any benefit from the deposit, of city funds Iu the tottering banks of his friends; and. eecond, whether as a matter of law, Joseph G.

Robin, the witness against Hyde, hr.d been his accomplice In the alleged crime. Ji'scice Goff had charged the jury that the aid given by Hyde to bis friends in the Carnegie Trust Company was a material benefit to Hyde and that Robin, though he admitted helping Hyde's friends out at Hyde's request, was nt an accomplice iu the crime. Shm these rulings be declared wrong, Hyde will get a new trial. SHOOTING FEUD OUTCOME. John Chictivello, Thrice Wounded, May Die From Injuries.

Announcement of this was made today by Elections Commissioner Jacob Livingston, chairman of the Republican Executive Committee. The petition will entitle the candidates to places on the official primary ballot, but not In the regular Republican column under tje Republican emblem, the Instead, the names of i'u Alder- manic and Assembly candidates will ap- Dear In a another emblem.

This emblem will designated by the 'Republican County Committee. This plan has been worked out by Commissioner Livingston In an efiort to construct the party organization 011 the election district basis and at the same time keep within the present primary law. Previously, the Republican organization has been based on the Assembly district as the unit, and under it thvre Is no provision for an election dlstrcl organization of official character which can assume the powers of designation or lay claim to the right of representation In any other body having tho power of designation. Byt Its own act the Counly Committee has robbed itself of the power to designate any candidate that does not run throughout the entire county. This condition was brought about by the passage of a resolution declaring for the election district unit plan in conformance with the now law, when at the same time tho Republican party did not have already formed election district organisations upon which to build a practical party machine.

Neither was there any spring primary this year at which such organizations could be brought into existence. This left tho party without any machinery to designate candidates' that would run in districts, smaller than the entiro county. Xext fall Aldermen Assemblymen mutt be nominated and elected so the plan to designate them by petition and run tbetn under a separate column on the primary ballot v.as conceived cs a way out of the dilemma. At the same primary election next fall at which these designated candidates will be ofRcinlly nominated the whole Republican party machinery can be- remodelled on a permanent election district basis by the election of a Republican rnmiplttee in every election (iistrlet. This H'l'-l make recourse to the petition makeshift under the present primtry Jaw unnecessary In the future.

as a regular appraiser now gets for hie whole year' work. Then the statement saye: "For a barefaced attempt to make the Surrogate's otlico a very powerful factor in party politics, nothing better could be imagined than the Frawley bill. It will keep hundreds of lawyers an 1 henchmen under obligations to the Surrogate and his party." Then the statement goes on to say that an investigation is being made of the practice of appointing lawyers as referees, which practice it terms "pernicious."

Board May Reconsider Spencer's ''Honorable Mention." "The Board of Merit, consisting of prominent men, who award module and other commendation to members of the Fire Department, will be asked by George W. Olvany, Deputy Fire Commissioner, to reconsider the awarding of honorable mention, Class to Captain John Spencer of Engine Company No. 24. According to a report made by Captain Spencer, on which the award was made, he aud Lieutenant Abbott of his company, on October 14, 1911, rescued a Chinaman during a flra at 161 Bleecker Btreoi, Manhattan. On March 20 last Captain Spencer waB awarded the commendation, carrying with it an additional point In all civil service examinations taken In the future.

No award was received by Lieutenant Abbott. Tho recommendation by Deputy Commissioner Olvany that tho captain's award be reconsidered grew out of tho trial at Fire Headquarters today of George J. Foster, a fireman formerly attached to Captain Spencer's company, and now connected with Engine Company No. 27. Foster waB brought up on charges of using disrespectful language to a superior officer, made by Captain Spencer, who testified that after receiving the award Foster demanded to know why he had not been mentioned In his report as having participated In the rescue of the Chinaman.

Foster's demand, he told Deputy Commissioner Olvany. was supplemented with disrespectful language. Foster declared that the rescue of the Chinaman was made by himself and another fireman, and that they were not assisted either by Captain Spencer or Lieutenant Abbott.
