Mr. Connette alo gave evidence yesterday In another branch of the same inquiry, directed at determining whether all the local traina In the Broadway bronch of the Subway above Nlnety-iMxth Street during rush hours should not be run thorugh to Dyck-min Street instead of stopping at 137th Street, and whether tlm Dyckman Street and Van Cortlandt Parte expresses should not run local altogether above the Ninety-sixth Street crossover.

We find ourselves In a pocket between Brooklyn and the Brons." he amid. We hava bn In It for yeara. and thua far onr complaints are In vain. Every express train starts from Bronx Park, and we have never yet enjoyed In the rusn hours the pleasure of a seat, but have frequently enjoyed the plesvsure of being shut out of a car beeavuao no more people could be Jammed In. Ws sought before the -Tres-nt Subway was built to avoid this difficulty, which we then for-saw.

by pointing oot to the then Ki rid Transit Board that two tracks from Ninety-sixth Street to the river would not accommodate Bronx and Harlem tSth. B'lt we were told that we were too lata. Then, to tease ua. President Orr of that board aald that there was a way out whereby we might get some kind of service In Harlem, and that was for 11s to get busy and get a yard at 145th Street, so that they could start expreeeea from thr.t yard ones In a while for the Harlem traffic. We thotight that with a auggeatlon from ao high source we would be all right, so we got rmsv and Interested Barclay Persona and Mr.

Rives, who wna then Corporation Counsel, ana we pre-, vailed on the Board of Aldermen and a ycrd waa established at 143th Street. But we have been buncoed out of that yard might use a mora elegant word, but that la exactly what we feel I have yet to hear of a single expreaa train ever start-In from 145th Street. I have no detailed figure, but I don't think I need them as long as no express trains nave ever been run from that point for our accommodation." Mr. Itlandy said that Vhat he would like to have the commission do wag to order the operation of an occasional express from 143th Btreer downtown during ruth hours for the Harlem people, and an occassional expreaa uptown at night from South Ferry, ao that folks getting on at Rowling Green. Wall, and Fulton Streets should not find all the seats taken bv people coming over from Brooklyn.

Coiuiiiisaioner Eustls promised to take the matter under advisement. GRANTS ELEVATEDEXTENS10NS Interborough Can Now Build Queent-boro Bridge and. Bronx Lines. The Public Service Commission Issued yesterday to the Interborough Rapid Transit Company certlflcatea for the extension of its elevated lines ln the Bronx and across Queenaboro Bridge and for the third tracking of the Second, Third, and Ninth Avenue Elevated lines ln Manhattan. The routes followed by these ex-tensions and.

the general terms of the agreement with the city became -public aoma time ago after the Publlo Service Commission and the Interborough had concluded their negotiations on this matter, but there were In the actual certlflcatea aa made public yesterday many features of Importance not brought out tn the earlier publications. 1 So far as concerns the extensions of the elevated lines It Is provided that the city shall receive a sum equal to 2 per cent, of the gross receipts from whatever source derived," and at all stations on the extensions, to be determined by a count of the tickets taken, or by such other method as may be adopted. The original rate of compensation Is to last for twenty-five years, after which there will be a readjustment at the end of each twenty years of the eighty-five year franchise, but at no subsequent time of readjustment shall the clty'a compensation be less than the 2 per cent, of the gross receipts on the extensions. The interborough la bound by the certificates to operate the extensions in connection with Its present elevated lines for a five-cent fare, and the type of construction that Is laid down Is that which has been followed on the Van Cortlandt Park extension of the Subway the city, however, having the right reserved to require construction with solid floors and other devices to make noiseless operation over 15 per eent. of the route.

This will make it iHJssibie to have noiseless construction over parks, roadways, and other public places. The city also reserves the right in the case of the Queenaboro Bridge extension and the extension out Jerome Avenue ln the Bronx, which was originally laid out as a part of the Trlborough subway route, to permit lessees or operators of anv rapid transit railroad to use these tracks on terms to be agreed upon between tho company and the city, or such lessee or operator. Arbitration Is provided for as a recourse in case the partlea fail to agree In this negotiation. The city has the rbrht to take over the Bronx extensions iy paying their value at any time after ten years, and the Queensboro Bridge extension at any time after five years on the same terms. At the expiration of the lease the extensions are, like the subways, laid out and built to revert to the city without payment.

The third-tracking agreement Is on a somewhat different basis, for the reason, first, that third tracks can hardly be separated from the actual Ptructure to which they may be added, unless thev are broken up for scrap, and, second, that the Manhattan Klevated has a ltU-year franchise. They are to be built on the Second, Third, and Ninth Avenue Klevated lines. In part as a double-deck structure and ln part on the present level, and extensive additions are contemplated between Chatham Square and Cltv Hall to enable the Second Avenue Klevated line to operate its express trains Into the Cltv Hall station as well as the Third Avenue. The Interborough Kets also under the agreement two-track connection between the present Third AvWnue elevated structure at 143d Ktrect and th West Farms division of Its existing Subway, the franchise of this connection expiring Oct. 10.54 The franchises are perpetual like that of the Manhattan'Kl-evated: but It la provided that If at any time the Manhattan lease be terminated find the city acquire that property no additional payment shall be made for.

the third A method Is provided In the certificate or ot-mputlng the Increase tn gross rev-errre -dire to the third- tracking nnd the city Is. to receive '2 per cent, of this amount, subject to readjustment at the enl of twenty-five years and at the end of each Jt-year period thereafter. The Interborough has threo months to get the consent of the Board of Bstlmate to the third tracking, and the elevated extensions, one year from that date to get the necessarv consents or property owners, or the authorisation of the Appellate Di vision, ana two years thereafter to com plete all the construction. ACROSS AIRSHAFT ON PLANKS Risks, Life to Save Fainting Woman and Her Child Rune from Plaudlta of Crowd. Flames a hooting from the basement of a five-story tenement at 113 Kaat 118th Street last night drew a group of boya and young men from their play ln the anow to the task of waking and rescuing the fifteen families sleeping ln the house.

Aa the youths, led by William Brusle, 20 years old, of 21 East 118th Street, rushed Into the lower hall, they were met by dense rolls of smoke, througb which flames which had started In a pile of rubblsn ln the cellar and swept up the alrshaft and stairway, were already visible. The boys rushed upstairs, knocking on every door, and crying to those within to same themselves without waiting to drees. Aa trell as they could the boys guided the terrified tenants, many of them old people and children, to the rear fire escapes' and up to the roof, the flames gaining: rapidly upon them. Most of the tenants had piled out by way of the rear escape and the roof, making their way from there to adjoining houses, when Brusle learned that Mrs. Mary Cramston and her 13-month -old baby.

Vincent, were asleep ln their flat on the fourth floor. The baby, one of the women called to him before she disappeared down the fire escape, waa 111 of bronchitis, and Mrs. Cramston bad been unable to sleep before last night. Brusle looked down the smoke-filled passage from the roof. The flames were already up to the third floor.

Nevertheless be Jumped down, and rushed to the door of the Cramston flat. It was closed, but he burst Into the room. Mrs. Cramston and the baby were both fast asleep, although the roaring of the flames coulJ be heard distinctly and the smoke was stifling. Brusle woke them and told Mrs.

Cramston to follow him to the fifth floor and the roof while he carried the baby. As they reached the door, however, the woman, at the sight of the flames already licking their way up the stairway to the fourth floor, fainted. Brusle cried for help, but all the other tenants and rescuers had left the building The flames were almost at his feet. Tien Brusle. who Is a well-built youth, still holding the baby ln one arm.

lifted the unconscious woman In the other and staggered up the stairs to the fifth floor. He reached the fifth floor and stumbled toward the narrow leading to the roof. By this time the flames had reached him, and Mrs. Cramston's hair waa ablaze. The baby's, too.

was singed. Through the dense, hot smoke he pulled his heavy burden up the stairway and fell out upon the snow-covered roof with them. Just as the flames shot up the acuttle opening. The mother was still unconscious and the baby crying. Brusle again shouted for help, but there was none near to hear him.

Hut the flames were now stealing around th-edge of the roof, and he could not wait. While the lookers-on held their breath In frightened amasetnent he dragged the unconscious woman across the perilous foot plank and let her drop Into the anow of the adjoining roof. Then, more lightly, he ran back across the plank, picked ap the baby, and carried it to safety.

Both were then taken in charge by others and carried down stairs, where Mrs. Josephine Smith, the Janitreaa of the bulldln. cared for them until an ambulance surgeon from the Harlem Hospital arrived. He found Mrs. Cramston badly burned about the head, face, and hands, but said she would recover.

STOLEN FROM WALL ST. SHOP $1,000 Theft in the Ainstie Art Gallery at Subway Station Discovered by Negro COSTLIER ONES LEFT BEHIND Pictures by Zelm, Inness, Selnac, and Other.

Valued at $75,000, Too Large to be Carried Away. The Wall Street Branch of the Detective Bureau la working on a burglary, ln which four paintings valued at more than $1,000. were stolen from the Alnslle Art Gallery, at 1 Wall Street, some time between 4 o'clock Saturday afternoon and 8 o'clock Monday morning. The gallery, which is situated ln the basement of the building, and through which stream dally thousands of Subway passengers to snd from the train platform, which adjoins the gallery on the west, waa locked at 4 o'clock on Saturday afternoon, heavy fireproof Iron doors shutting It out from the Subway platform, and from the stairs that lead to the street. At that hour this station of the Subway la abandoned till Monday morning, passengers using the one ln Broadway instead.

At 8 o'clock on Monday morning the colored porter. Robert Showel. opened the fallery. and bepan dusting the paintings, re noticed nothing amiss, but few minutes later his helper. William Lewis, also colored, who has been employed In the gallery for twelve years, arrived, and in a moment noticed that something was wrong.

An investigation showed that tour fine paintings, all of them small enough to be conveniently hidden under an overcoat, were gone. They were a landscape by George 11. McCord. measuring 10 by 14 Inches, valued at $300; two by J. R.

Kellogg, measuring 8 inches by 10. and valued at $J00 each, and one by W. Merrltt Post. 10 by 20 Inches, valued at $2W. The thief apparently had not been without art sense, although far more valuable paintings nad been lert untouched, probably because they were too bulky to be removed without attracting attention.

Amnnj those thus left were one painting by Zelm, worth one by George worth Sa.TiOO: one by Selnac. val- ixi at and a large painting of Columbus's fleet valued at $2,500. besides otl brinKinij the value of the entire colii tion up to about $75,000. Cf-orge II. Alnslle, the manager of the upon his arrival notified the Strict Branch of the Detective Burt an.

and Lieut. Holland knd Detective Millinore were assigned to the case. They found that entrance to the place had prohnbly been effected by means of a skeleton key through a door leading from the southeast corner of the gallery to the hall of the office building above. This door had been left open by the thief upon his departure. Although no clue to the visitor was found in the pallery, the police said yesterday that they had several men under suspicion, und were hopeful of soon recovering the stolen paintings.

The paintings hiid been Insured ngaiiut burglary until a few months ago, when Mr. Alnslle allowed the policy to lapse. He said yesterday that ho was Inclined to feel almost satisfied when he considered how much heavier his loss might have been. ami it reported that Sl.rtfnon la the sum tent-ulivfrly offered for naming tl.a mcieMor to one of the present va- cerf-ies.
