Excerpt from The Brown Book: A Biographical Record of Public Officials of the City of New York for 1898-9To carry out the provisions of the present Charter, which is not denied was framed by men of high capacity and rare authority on municipal affairs, but which, nevertheless, was subject to much study and necessitated many radical changes and innovations, was a problem involving complications and difficulties which had not been met before. In spite of this, however, it can safely be said that the first year of the consolidated City Government under the present executive and administrative heads has been a dis tinct success.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
