MADISON AYENUE COSIEST Hearing by the 'State Railroad Commissioners of the Application to Change Motive Power. NECESSARY CONSENTS FILED J5ut Opponents of the Metropolitan Company Claim. Its System of Computation is Wrong President Cole Seems to be 7a- vorably Disposed. The State Railroad Commissioners met in the Chamber of Commerce rooms yesterday morning and gave a public hearing in the matter of the application of the Kew Tork and Harlem Railroad Company and the Metro poll tan Street Railway Company for the approval by the board of the substitution for bora. nnwpr nfan nnHorrrnnrul current of electricity as a motive power on the Fourth and Madison Avenue Street Railroad.

Mr. Robinson for the applicants filed an affidavit of Peter Kelly, formerly a cleric In the -office of the Department of Taxes and Assessments, giving the total value of property along the route, exclusive of that owned by the city, at and that of property owned by those whose consents have been obtained to the change of motive power at $44,858,630. or $2,741,310 more than the one-half required by law. From Forty-second Street to the Harlem, Mr. Robinson aid, there are 830 individual- owners of property in Madison Avenue, and of this VII V.nli ri.

A AnnaAv.4 Tnn V. showing the formal consent of the board to the chanee 1a asked. W. H. Page, representing the Third Avenue Railroad Company, opposed the application.

He contended that the law of 1S32, Chapter 93, provided that-on this line no car or vehicle shall be propelled south of Fourteenth Street by other than horse nd that this restriction has not been reoioved by any subsequent Mr. Page alj quoted from Chapter 3C7. Laws of forbidding the construction or operation of any elevated or underground railway upon or under Madison Avenue -unless the majority of the owners of property in number and value gae consent, and claimed that this law applied to the proposed road, an lu operating power would be under ground. President Cole said that all railroads are more or less underground. Mr.

raised the point that the applicant tironosed to eo ahead without the con sent of the Board of Electrical Control and thus assumes the attitude of a law-breaker. He further contended that the road runs past much city property, and the consent of the Park Commissioners is essential. Mr. Robinson said he would concede that Do application had been made to the Board of Electrical Control, the Park Board, or the Common Council for consent to the proposed change of rrrotive power, but said that such application would be made if found to be neccsavv. Mr.

Page finally said that he proposed to how that the necessary consents have rot been obtained; that the yttm upon which the applicants have calculated their consents is wrong. W. C. Truli, representing an owner of Property in Avenue, opposed the application on the ground that the consents of one-half the property in lineal feet or in value, as required by law, have not been obtained. President Cole read a letter from Marcus M.

Murks, representing the Prospect Hill Taxpayers' Association, urging the Commissioners, to grant the application. J.

He also expressed nis strong disfavor of giving valuable franchises to corporations without receiving adequate concessions in return. The far on the street railways, he urged, should be reduced to 8 cents.

A big Newfoundland dog, foaming at the mouth and apparently mad, tried to find shelter In a quick lunch restaurant at 428 Sixth Avenue, yesterday, when the place was Tilled with people from the shopping district taking luncheon. There was a general exit, including the waiters and cashier. Two men. bolder than the others, attacked the dog with chairs. The poor beast was looking for rest, riot flght, and after knocking one of the men down he permitted the other to chase him into the street.

Down Sixth Avenue he ran, scattering People right and left from Twenty-ninth to Twenty-seventh Street, crossing the Avenue three or four times in that distance, and having all the room he wanted to move about in. Then he bolted into a dry goods store, where he met with as inhospitable a reception as he did in the restaurant. Two Tenderloin detectives and a patrolman followed the dog Into the store and began shooting that Is one detective and the patrolman began shooting while the other, detective said "Shoo!" Accounts differ as to who killed the dog. Detective Walsh is sure that it was a bullet from his Pistol that did the business, while the police blotter at the Thirtieth Street Station House -credits the victory to Patrolman Gregg. Anyway, four shots were fired before the dog was killed and business resumed Its normal course.

Though a mere the Newfoundlander was as large and as vigorous as a sturdy calf. Too much meat from a fond owner, and not the weather, was the cause of all the trouble.

Pittsburg Times.

March 1. 17. The value of the work lies In the fact that It is intended to supplement the Encyclopaedia Brit-annica. To use the publishers' words, The aims sous-ht are to supplement tb Brltannlca so as to oring all Uis developments of history, discovery, arts, and sciences down to date; to extend biography so as to Include living men of distinction; to enlarge the view of American interests, and to supply references to the original text, making the whole work available for easy consultation. Any on who has occasion to consult a trustworthy work of reference will find this supplement of great service." New York Herald, Mareh 6.

1807. Fin discrimination in the estimate of value as applied to themes is apparent In th fact that forty-two pages are devoted to electricity, the commercial and scientific thought of the sge. Ounmaking and gunpowder also receive the attention which they deserve. Iron and steel. Irrigation, and several other salient subjects are also well covered." Brooklyn Dally Eagle, April Tha supplement is made specially attractive to the people of this country by Its particular survey of American Interests in their latest phases, also by Its extensive biographical sketches of eminent living men.

American as well as foreign. This supplement will give new value to sets of all British and American editions heretofore bought, as well as bring them down to a later date than any other encyclopaedia extant. The aim of the publishers has been to put upon the market a work superior to and more recent than any other work of reference in the language." Detroit Tribune. Feb. 8, 1887.

The treatment of some of the topics is very full and satisfactory. Thus, for Instance, forty page are devoted to electricity and the article by Dr. Stratton Includes recent experiments in surgery by the aid of Roentgen's rays. The blo- graphical sketches form one of the most valuable eatures, as they cover eminent living persons and those who have recently won distinction." Saa Francisco Chronicle. March 7, 1697.

Besides the large number of briefer articles, supplementing the accounts in th last edition of the Brltannlca. and not only bringing th lnfor-matlon down to date, but making it mora accessible for quick reference than th form of tha original permits, there are many longer papers on special subjects of Importance contributed by authorities upon the several subjects that in treatment rank with the elaborate essays of th Brit- -annlca which, have given that work Its deserved Sromlnenoe."

The names of the contributors are a guarantee for the high quality of the material generally.

Each State of the Union Is dealt with In detail, and of the 1.500 illustrations which embellish the text may be mentioned the seal of each separate State, th capltols of the various commonwealths, and plet- ares of leading men and women of America. The work has been prepared with the utmost care and every effort taken to avoid errors of any charao-tar." Nw Orleans States. March 14. 1807. "Viewed as a whole, the work is worthy to be called a great addition to encyclopaedic literature.

It Is thorough and accurate In Its presentations of fact, and the special feature added to typify the latest developments In all branches of effort ar of particular Interest." Evaning Star, Washing- ton. April 17, 1887. It is annecessary to repeat all the words of approval which -have already been passed upon the. enterprise in this journal. It Is a compendium which suffers to some extent from th rule of compression Imposed upon It by its seal.

But the students of American history, for which it seems to have been more especially prepared, will find it helpful on many a knotty point. A considerable corps of competent writers have been engaged upon the work, and, to sum up, It has been particularly well printed and bound." New York Tribune. April 20. 18S7. The fifth volume of th American supplement to the ninth edition of the Encyclopaedia Britan-nica has at length been Issued.

This completes the set. and. taken as a whole, the work Is most complete. It contains everything that could possibly be desired In such a supplement. It is strictly up to date, which is th great tiling with such a publication.

The promises of the publishers have been more than fulfilled. As noted heretofore, the very best writers have been employed In the preparation of the supplement, making It about the most complete of the end-of-the-century works of references to be found."
