McBEAN PLAN IS REJECTED Contractors' to Hava tha Subway Ready for Connection with '14th Straat by 1918. Tho contract' for tho construction of the tunnel under tho East River from Fourteenth Street, Manhattan, to Nortn Seventh Street, Brooklyn, waa awarded yesterday by the Public Service om- miaaion to A Fllnn. Limited.

Thev will naa tho usual shield method of driving the tunnel under the bed of tho East Rtvef. and will complete tne work for Sd.639.0-JS.S0 In twenty-oeven months from tha delivery of tho contract. This nuts an end to the effort Of Dun can McBean and his associate to ob tain the contract for the construction ttl the tunnel by tho method with which -Mr. McBoan'a name la conected. Thto provide for the dredging out of a trencn In the bed of tho river along tne une 01 tha lnnn.1 and the lavlnK In It of the tube of the new tunnel, which would have been pervioualy prepared on ory land.

Mr. Alcllean contended that his anrt more a Deed than tho shield plan, and that It would reaun in mm at a considerably less depth than on ander tho bed of the stream. Thereby, bo argued, tho gradea between the tunnel and the reat of tho aubway would bo- considerably reduced, and a permanent advantage in tho matter or operation would be secured. Vhen he lsid his plans before Commissioners Hodge and Hay ward, however, they took them up with Colonel Black. Chief Knglneer of the War Department In, thto dlatrlct.

Tho East River to, aa a navigable stream, under tho Jurisdiction of the War Department, and Its sanction would bo necessary for any alteration In It depth. A soon, however. Colonel Black understood that tho McBean method would Involve tho reduction at one point of tho depth of tho East Ryor he aaid he could not approve of it without modification. It would be necessary to preserve the -i present depth of the river without obstruction, and that would have necessitated the dredging out of tho trench HO feet beneath the surface of tho water. Thto it was realized by the Commissioners and by Mr.

McBean himself would bo a very difficult and costly piece of work, and It waa decided hot to have recourse to the trench method. The contract waa then awarded to Booth Fllnn as the lowest bidders, but they undertook to reduce the contract tlmo for the completion of the Job from thirty-four to twenty-seven months, ao that the discussion of tho McBean plan ft 1 i. vlnir of aeven naa i cu.

Tho Inaccuracy of tho Government's statistics concerning exports, complaints about which war reported from Washington, waa conceded yesterday by men well acquainted with tha Urge ax-port trades. It was duo partly, they aaid, to tha fact that appropriations for compiling statistics have not been sufficient to keep tho work up to date. A more serious cause of error waa tho inadequacy of the present forma of declaration, which do not require a detailed statement of exports or destination. Here a groat reform is expected after new forma of declaration are put Into use on Feb. 1.

Discussing this yesterday. K. C. Porter of the Bureau of Foreign and Domestio Commerce ao the Custom House, said: Mo doubt a great deal of the inaccuracy of our export statistics is due to carelesanea on tho part of the shippers. They have not bothered to give a description of goods and they have been permitted to use very broad defi-nltlob which mean little.

"The old forma simply called for a declaration of the destination of cargo. Consequently, an order for Russia might be shipped by way of Germany and WOUid DO ncorura aa avi. Then Mr. Potter explained that the general term dry goods, meats, machinery." and ao on. have been ao- v.

Gloves, Fabrlci, and Metals Among 'tha Things Considered. E. J. Rudgard wlgg of Norfolk. waa partly auatalned yesterday by the Board of Oeneral Appralsera In a claim for lower duty on women'a glovea.

They war returned by the Appralaer aa made of lambskin, and on this account the Collector took duty at per doxen pairs. The rotes tan claimed that the glovea in question consisted of schmaschen. or sheep origin, which should have been returned at only SI per dozen. At the hearing it developed that the Importations consisted of both lambskin and schmaschen glovea. Judge McClelland held that the glovea ahown to be of lambskin were properly assessed, but granted the lower rate on the schmaschen gloves.

The Duplan Silk Company waa upheld in the claim that dress goods coin-posed of allk and wool were properly dutiable at 43 per cent, under the pro-vialon for woven fabrlca in chief value of Bilk. Although Appraiser Saeue re- i ft. nr alllc. portea tne J. Collector Malone dUrenarded thia rlnd-ine and returned the fabric at 44 rant arl ijviuiu valorem under the wool cloth provision.

The importers submitted their case without evidence, relying upon tho Appraiser' report. Judge Brown held that the Apr raiser's report must be taken as true aince the Collector incorporated it in hi certificate to the board, even though the report waa made n.ore than thirty days after the filing of the protest. Judge Fischer, In disposing of a re-appraieeraent protest Involving shipments of sine bars from Juan C. Peral-ta of CaUao. Peru, reversed the action of Collector Malone in taking duty on a higher bssla on tha plea that no market existed In Callao for tha xlnc.

The Collector exacted duty on tne Belling price of tho product In the United States, whereas tha importers here showed that a regular market prevailed i r.iion Entry ior ui i n.ftvftj ft was accordingly allowed on the basis of ilH5 per I.0O8 kilos. When shipment of Toledo high speed steel arrived here from the General Supply Company of Ottawa. Appraiser Satiue wss unwilling to accept tne in- voiwo or "3ftftft7j Ing Canadian market value at tne time of anlrment. ie auvanceu values, auu the Collector demanded duty on a higher level. Judse Fischer, in reversing the local officials, hold that the steel had been properly entered sa having a value In Canada or sou per ton.

Strong Demand for Sheepskins. 1iNDON. Jan. 13. A sale of sheep skins was held here today.

There were 4,770 bales offered. The sklna were in. ewaa condition, and there waa a demand for all sorts. Crossbred advanced 13 to 'M per vent, and merlnoa 111 to 10 per cnu November sales. BUSINESS NOTES.
