Man opened the proceeding by offer! 2 several protest of property owner against the bill, one of which he mil, giving the natnee and why the bill ihould not be signed, aa it would inflict serious Injury on valuable property along the line of Ilroadway.

He then related his experience In regard to the bill at Albany, how he had but limited opportunity to contest It in committee, and how It wu hurried through the Assembly without consideration. Franrla M. (Toott Mid trie Mayor and authorities of New-York City were opposed to the bill. There wee no substantial supervision given to the authorities over the road. It allowed this company to carry away the leading etreet of the City bodily and dump It in the river.

It autbor-l74xi the eomnany to excavate under lateral street; to build tramways, and to remote ru. water, and teni-heatlng pipe without the city receiving any oomteiiiallou. K. JalTray read protot. In which -the history of the bill was related as it rame up st Various tunes at A litany down to when it whs finally lie neclared there was no demand for the mad.

The bill give authority to toe company to excavate to a depth of 1A (eat, but they may. If tbey like, ao down HO feet, and the di'ir they go the more tbey endanger the foundations of the bo lines on the street. Any Interference with Uroadway la ao injury to the entire city. II. 1'oiu-r aaid the bill la tuhatantlally a new bill, and propose a vast new grant to this com-pauy.

A It stood originally the road waa limited to ill fret In width, and waa a simple tunnel, wbcrfea. now the limit has been removed, and It claims an atisoluta measurement of 44 f.ct. Vault that were formerly ec'uru are now to lie swept away, endangering the foundations of buildings along the street. In six years the rent of two vaults he occupied coat frt.iMl, and tbe building attached broaabt a rental of t.J,inu. but tbe construction of this road would, ruin such property as be owned along the street.

I Jobn it- Parsons said be should offer none but legal objections to the bill. Ho said that tile Constitution Declared that no pr-vliege shall be grunti of a private and local character. There waa no eicue for Infringement of the Constitution In this instance, as the Legislature panned an aot in ll under which the company could have organised without acting in violation of tbe law. Another reason wby the bill should not pass win that It did not rjulre the-couaeut of the abutting property owner. The point urged In opposition to the bill In behalf of the municipality of New.

York are clearly act forth In a brief signed by Muyor Grace and AlKtant Corporation uurnwl K. M. Scott. The bill. It Is alleged, is drawn with a slngleeve to tbe advantage di-sired by the corporal ion In whose Interna it Is pexsed, and with absolute dlitreirnrd of the interest of the municipality of the city of New-York and of the rlgbi and.

Interests of the owner of property along and In the Immediate vicinity of the pro'tosed railroad. The abjections to the bill on behalf of the municipal authorities are briefly staled as follows; Plrsl It de not contemplate or provide for the consent or tbe local authorities to the construction of the road and toe occupation of tbe streets. The Constitution of tbe htate prohibit tbe passage of any law authorizing tbe construction of a street railroad except upon the consent of the local authorities. It la possible tuat a railroad to bo constructed beneatn tbe surface of the street does not fall witbln tbe strict letter of this eonHtitutional prohibition, but It clearly fails within iU spirit. No provision whatever 1 made for compensation to the city for tbe use of lie street.

It I confidently submitted and strenu ously uririMl that no private corporation should I permitted to appropriate any of tbe streets of tbe oily, either upon, in, under, or above the surface, unless adequate and continuous compensation to the city I provided for and secured. 'i htril No sutwlanttai supervision on tbe part or tbe local aumoriiie 1 proviuea Tor in toe VHL Tbe corporation Is to be permitted to lav violent hand upon the city's most Important street, dig It up, disarrange and rearrange all It tindergrouad pipes and sewers, and tbe authori ties muMt stan a oy witnoul tbe power to tutor- Xere or even protost. J-ourtaNoadeouate guarantee Is afforded that the work, lr ever liegun, will be more than partially completed and then left unfinished, with Itroadwav either permanently ruined or with tbe burden thrown on to municipal authorities of motoring it to It normal condition. Tbe capital of the company Is to be i.OA but It it not neresaarv that all or any part of it shall be subscrllwd liefore tbe work I done. Further-ruore, the Trustcv may borrow money to an UnlltnitiMl eiteut, and thus leave as little they please or nothing a ail to be represented by tbe capital stock.

While the bill I not Idontlcal with tbe one Vetoed by Gov. Cleveland It 1 urged that tbe following sentences of his veto meanage apply with equal force to it: "Hut if private partiet wbo sustain deuiare by the construction of the road are lualuouately protected it appear to me that the municipality 1 klao but little regarded. The work la Iw be done In iu busiest and most Important street, wltbout any direction or yupervMlon on it part. Tbe municipality must Kaud by and see It main thoroughfare exra-vwied and earned away and anotoer construction substituted for it against it protest. I taunot think that the rovioioii or the bill rould be crrit out witoout a violation of prlnijlple, which should aot be permitted." A fter referring to tbe manner In which the Mil was railroaded through the Leglalature In the closing hours of tbe susaion.

without giving an opportunity to the city authorities for a bearing, the brief conclude: hurely it cannot be elaimed that the measure was atforded or re-Pelved such consideration as it importance de-lnnded." W.J. Mo Alpine, engineer of the oornpany, explained that no haxard. injury, or Inoon ventenoe nail be done adjaoeut buildings or presnisu; that travel by vvbluie and peleatrian on tbe team and crossing street shall not be Interrupted during the construction of theworkst that the constant and accustomed uae of adja-rent buildings shall not be interrupted or lncon-venieuoedi that tbe constant supply of water, vu, drainage, Ao to ancb building sball be continued without Intcrruiw tlon, and that such motive power shall be used as wui not Vitiate the atmosphere of tbe arcade or of adjacent premise. The completed structure will present a strong aud durable roadway for public travel, far superior to theexistlng one, reeling upon a solid foundation of concrete, and supported from below be walla of masonry, iron column, and strong lrou girder. all of wblcU will rudurv for a century i or more, and each part ao arranged as to be replaoed without Interruption to street or railroad travel.

The surface pavement will never be required to be disturbed for any purpoe whatever until it le entirely worn out. Tbe water, gas, steam heating, aud drainage pipes, a well a the elevtrie wire, which are to occupy tbe ground at various depth below the pavement, require) to be taken up frequently for repair and replacement. In the plan for tbe arcade all tbeen pipe will be placed la open vault, throuah which the inspector can walk and hourly examine every pine aud promptly repair or replace de. active one or put In new one. These xaro-luat on, repair, and replacement will be made without disturbing tbe street or.

He said the bill doe aot violate nv ameodmmta to the CtMutltuUon. There a re only two amendment that are at all applicable. irat, there la one nmhil.itni mntintf la curporatloa any axoiuaivw franriiikie. Ttua doe not grant an exclusive tbe company has an exclusive franchise already tor PuliJlng a four-track railroad under nroauway. Thia it bad when tbe constitutional amendment wa pasaed.

This bill srlves tbe company the right to spread it track so ss to take lu wider cars tban It now bas tne right to use. which would enable it to run car of the standard gauge. The bill allow the oornpany to excavate no wider space tban it already na the right to excavate to wit, I mm curb to curb, or nearly ao but It ta now obliged to put water pipe. pipes, ana sewer aitne tide between it track and the curbstone. This bill rive tbem tbe right to put those pi pee under tbe track and to ue tbe apace thus saved to widen their track.

The court have held that, where a corporation in existence and ha for feited its franchise for any reason Legislature my re re tbe forfeited franchUe without violating the Constitution, and the whole subject Is fully treated by the Court i Appeal in the elevated railroad ca-ei. Neither doe this bill violate tbe second provision of the constitutional amendment, which prohibit the Legislature from authorizing the construction of a street railroad without tbe consent of property owner along the proposed route or such railroad, or by order or the (Supreme Court; flrt, because this bill does not authorize the building of a railroad at all. Tbe company now ha the Power which It never forfeited to build four-track railroad under Ilroadway. There I no need of granting to it that which it already powvsea. The moat that can be said to le granted by this bill a provlolon to lay wider tracks and run standard oar thereon, which is a very different thing from granting original authority to build a railroad, which I what tlio Constitution prohibited unless the property owner consented or the court to onlcred.

Secondly. It doe not violate this prohibition because the railroad which la to lw built tinder Ilroadway 1 not a street railroad at all. A street railroad It a road laid on the surface of a strcet.which In. terferea with trallic on tbe (urtaoc, or one In the air, reotlng on the surface, which would Interfere with the enjoyment of light and air bv property owners. It Is very proper In such case that property owners should consent, but even here their non-consent Is provided for by giving Jurtdtctlon to the court, A rellroad under the street Interfere neither with traffic on the surlace, nor light and air, and property owner hare all enjoyment of the street which they would have if the railroad was not there.

The Mate own the fee of tbe street subject to the right of tbe public generally to ue it as a highway on tbe surface and-subject to tbo right of property owner along the street to ne it for access to their property and for light or air Neither the general public nor the abutting property owner have any estate In the earth under the surrace. either by way of a veuicd rtgutor an eavment. Hitherto the street under tho surface has been usvlevs, except to put pipes in and hold sewers. The Legislature no a perfect rlirbt, untrarameled by any constitutional to make use of the land under the surfucB for the public good and In anv -way that secou lx-et to it. Tbe vault owners, so called, have no ownership at all.

Tbcy have a simple right from the city authorities to use the space under tbe rldewalks at sufferance. This right miiy he recalled at any moment and the vault owners cannot complain, le-aue they knew that when tbcy built their vault. Cbarle Kensell. representing various labor associations, presented resolutions from labor societies In New-York City comprising over fO.OOU mem ber recommending the Governor to approve tbe bill tu a great boon to tho poor working people. Mr.

Lawsoti N. Fuller dwelt upon the fact that the elevated railroad at the present time were inadequate to do the passenger traffic of the city. Addressing himself to the Governor, he aid: You are askeu to Imitate Govs. Hoffman and Cleveland and veto tbi bill. Make your own record.

Say to these gentlemen wbo oppose tbe Arcade bill that tbey don't know their own Interest." He went -on to say that as the city ennuot extend eaot and west, but only north, all facilities for transit in that direction should be made use of. The Jjovernor Inquired what wa the occasion of the' bill being delayed to the last day' session and asked the date of It Introduction. President Kmitb answered that tbe bill was introduced In the Senate March 11 with the view of holding It place on the calendar. Owing to the tact that last Winter the principal objection ura-ed was that provision bad not been made for tbe building of the road, tbe company doclded not to ask further legislation unions a contract with responsible parties should first lie made. A this required the securing of several millions of dollars, and the pledge and ability to raise million more when required the negotiations were not closed until May 7.

"On the morning of May 8 she Hai I road Committee of the Senate were Informed of our desire to secure an amendment, that would allow the putting of the pipes underneath tbe roadbed, and thus enable ua to have sufficient room for our cars, so that passengers could be carried through to the Buttery or anywhere on tbe line without change. Senator Thomas asked to have tbe bill printed Immediately, so aa to give the fullest possible information. The company had a man remain In Albany to carry the bill Immediately when printed to our opponent in New-York, and the bill were thus delivered to Mr. Man, CoL Cruger, and other of the opposition at tbe earliest moment possible, and as soon as received by us. A bearing was appointed for 4 o'clock on the following Monday, at wbioh those in opposition were present In force, and occupied the moat of a hearing of over four hours duration.

There was no clause in this bill, which wa not in the one carefully considered and acted upon by tbe same committee and the same Benate last 1 Winter. What were considered bad feature of that bill were left out. and those clause favorable to the company were much more restricted and less liberal to the company than tbe corresponding clauses In the bill last Winter. In open Senate a full opportunity wa allowed foroiscussion on all the ameudraenta proposed. In the Assembly there were 50 mem! ers wbo bad considered the bill lat Winter.

Tbe new members had months before received ail tbe documents pertaining to the enterprise. Therefore there was no oonortunitv to deceive nor was there a desire to mislead, and every possible opportunity that tbe circumstance admitted of wa given to tbe opposition. Tbe motion in the Assembly to discbarge the Committee of tbe Whole, and thus cut off amendments and debate, was made by a mem ber opposed to ine pui, ana wno voted against It, ONTAJtlO RAILROAD STOdK. Albaxt, Jane 6. A hearing; was civen this morning by Gov.

Hill on the bill authoriz ing the New-York, Ontario and Western Rail road Company to exchange certain bonds. M. Da Costa, E. W. Paige, and J.

B. Kerr ap peared for the company, William Allen Butler for the holders of terminal bonds, andT.P. Fow ler for the holders of the common stock. Mr. Greene, who Introduced tbe bill In the Assem bly, explained that tbe road Is the only one in the State In which preferred stock of 12,000.

000 control common stock of $58,000,000. This road is reorganization of what waa known as the Midland Road, and two resolutions favoring It were passed by two classes of Directors, copies of which were banded to the Governor. Tbe bill pmiri1 both house without opposition, and no one came to criticise it. If the bill be not signed the road cannot go on, be claimed, and will nave to go into ue bands or a iteceiver. People livina- along the road bold very much of tbe common etooa, ana are in ravor 01 tne bill and reorganization.

W. A. Uutlar said he had riven tbe bill conxld eratlon from a legal point of view, and it occurred to his mind that it was unconstitutional. It was a violation of that section of the Constitution whloh said that no person sball be deprived of bis property without due compensation." Tbe bill create a debt for the benefit of a portion of the stockholder without paying a cent. It wants to turn tbe preferred stock-bulders into creditor.

It proposes creating a mortgage debt, unlimited in amount, not for money, not for property, but for tbe capital stock of the company that Is, preferred stockholders are to exchange their scrip, and are to get bonds from the company, dollar for dollar. M. 1 Costa, tor the oornpany, said the Directors have tbe right to purchase anything of value to tbe road and create a debt for it. bov- ereign power realties in the Director and if granted by the operation of this bill. Tbe Governor aaid he only cared to know whether a majority of tbe stockholders have the power to ban ire preferred stock into a secured debt.

Tbe bondholder were 'willing to grant tbe Receiver SO days in which to pay the interest, and if not paid lnf that time proceedings will bo taken to foreclose, Mr. Gardner said It would be impossible' for htm to furnish the accounts in that time in order to get the necessary authority, but the bondholders present refused to allow a further extension. The result of the meeting was that no definite arrangements were completed, but thers is a probability that If tbe interest on tho second mortgaire, now past due, or tbe Interest on tne- three-million-dollar 6 per cent, mortgnire, due July Is not paid within the 20-dav limit the entire Buffalo Division, including the equipment and the extensive termi nal property in this city, win oe roreciosea ana bid In bv the bondholders. Tho meeting repre sented over one-half of the holders of the second mortgage bonds and a largn proportion of the bolder of the firsts, on which tbe interest 1 due next montb. One of the bondholders said: "It was our money that built and equipped tbe Buffalo Division, the cream of tbe road, and we don't intend to negotiate with the other bondholders, wbo purchased their lionds knowing the exact terms of the first and second mortgages.

Tbey bought tbe bonds on speculation after tho road was opened and developed, while we put our money Into it to bulla and eouiD It." If the bondhold ers foreclose on the Buffalo Division, it wfll mean the disintegration of the entire system, as the Pittsburg Division relies on the Huifalo Division for an entrance to the city, and several other diviMons are held up through the earnings 01 tbe UUUalo Division. -I. ERIE'S WESTERN CONNECTION. Ctscinnati, June 5. The Superior Court Judge to-day granted tbe petition of Hugh J.

Jewett, asking for a transfer to tbe United States Court of the suit of George Hafer against the New-York, Lake Erie and Western Railroad Company, the petitioner, tbe Hamilton and Dayton Railroad Company, and others. Tho restraining orders, however, against the New-York. Lake Erie and Western Company and Mr. Jewett. enjoining them from voting the pooled stock of the Cincinnati, Hamilton and Dayton, remains in force until a different order is mado by the United State -court.

As the case will not, in tbe regular course of things be reached Jn that court until October, tbe effect of what ha been done is to tie up the pooled stock, wbich Is a majority interest, and tbe election on June 16 win depend upon the vote of the. minority holders. It is said tbat an influential element among the minority are friendly to Mr. Jewett. and the election is likely to result in bis interest.

The New-YorV. Lake trie and Western will probably then be driven to make such an arrangement as it can with the Cleveland, Columbus. Cincinnati and Indianapolis, (a Vanderbilt road,) for a Cincinnati line. ILLEGAL TOWN AID BONDS. Chicago, June 6.

Judge Greaham, of the United States Court, I bearing the cases of Colony, Dole, Grant, and others, bondholder to tbe amount of $130,000 In the Ottawa, Oswego and Fox River Valley Railroad Com pany, against the road, the towns of Ottawa, Bruce, Evans, Oswego, Dayton, Fox. South Ottawa, the County of Kendall, and tbe Chi cago, Burlington and Quincy Railroad Com pany, xne case came up on excep- tiona to certain allegations in the bills. The above towns all Issued aid bonds in 1880 for the above road, but the bonds were declared void because the law under which they were Issued was never passed by the Legislature. Tne bondholders now claim to be entitled to tbe stock Issued to tbe towns, because the latter cannot bold It and yet repudiate tbe bonds. The Chicago, Burlington and (Julncy Railroad in 170 obtained a perpetual lease of the Fox River Vallev Koud, and Is therefore also made a de fendant.

The "track" had been allowed tourist for live years, and business men had invested largely and bunt up a trade witn its patrons. The question was serious to many not engaired in pool selling. James Qutgiey.

a hotel keeper, aaid the -people wbo had spent money in establishing themselves at Coney Island would have to go away if pool selling were topped, and the owners ot valuable horse would take tbem to other parts of the country. P. M. McDonald, another hotel keeper, said the horsemen were in debt to the butobers and other business men, ana toe result was a general demoralization of business since tbe stopping of pool selling. If it were not resumed property would depreciate fiO per cent, and mortgages be foreclosed.

Fully 100 establishments bad been started in seven years. The speaker -asked why Queens and Westchester rV-tlu 1 In- I out interference from tbe law.
