Well, if all tbis population is to flow here, as it must, what is to bo be the fifed on Brooklyn real estate I need not Indulge In any fancy sketch In reference to this. Everybody Bees that thedemand must immensely increaso ror our real estate and for our buildings. Is this Bridge, then, a necessity? Until ven have perfect communication between Brooklyn and New York you cannot expect to have this population come over here, as ll should and would in case there was a physical connection.

Tbere are thousands ol people who will not come to Brooklyn because tbey are impeded, perhaps for naif an hour or an bonr in their business, or interrupted in their recreation or their pleasure by delay in croBSiRg tbe river. Thousands and thousands again will not come here because they apprehend danger In the ferry boats from collision with the ves River 6357 Ellen M.Smith C. H. Glover Phebe Burnett Hnrrlst T.

Sirim Harvey 5th and 6lhtj in effect a benefit to New York mora than to Brooklyn, nnd he wanted to know why the City or Now York was not called upen to subscribe a portiou of tho money as wel as Brooklyn. He claimed that tbe Company bad no right lo ask for money Irom tbe city. If the (trnject was to be as profitable aa it was claimed It would be, why could not the stock bo taken up by private subscription? Ho claimed that lha whole thing was speculation lo swrndle the City of Brooklyn out of three millions of dollars, because by tho terms of tbo act, if the cities of New York aud Brooklyn should ever deem it necessary to lake the brtdea and make it a free bridge, as il would moat assuredly be, tbe stockholders were to bepaid33 percent, over the entire co it of tbe bridge. Mr.

John F. Hennessey hoped tho cily would not place implicit confidence on the Stat ements made by Mr. Church, for his speech was a stereotyped one. when When It proposed to introduce water into tbo city, Mr. Church made a similar Bpeecb, but the water was Introduced, and what wbb tbe cost to tbe incalculable benefit which was derived from lis establishment.

Sheriff Campbell said be was In favor or the building of a bridge cither by private subscription or by tho cily, no matter whether it cost eight millions of dollars or twelve millions, because he considered it a matter ot viial importance to the growth and prosperity of the city, and he considered tnat tho Common Council would be doing a wise Ibine by lording the credit of the city to the company to the extent of three or even five millions nf dollars. Mr. Cammt jer I am In favor ol building (ho bridgo as much as tbe gentleman is, bnt I am in ravor of having it built by piivate subscription, aod I am not In favor of taxing tho poor man for it. Mr. Cburch So am I.

I will subscribe $1000 to tho stock. Mr. McCue Wc will put you down for that amount. Mr. Campbell I am opposed to all tbis Bnrt ot talk about tbe poor man in tbis connection.

Every man knows that whatever benefits the cily beuellts the poor man aB well as ibe rich man. Mr. Church We are to have on election soon. Let tia put up a seperate ticket at tbat election with bridge or no bridge, loan or no loan, and see how ihe people of Btooklyn will voleou it. Is this mectlne a proper representation of the oeople of the City of Brooklyn 1 I claim there should bo some better means of g' tting at the sentiment ot the people In this matter, aiopeo, btfore the Board of Aldermen take tae responsibility of rantinz tbis loan.

Mr. Cummcyer I think lbi la tbe proper time to take an expression of ihe public voice on this malter. and il the meeting bad been called at the usual hour th. re wonld have been a larsre attendance. (Division av.

That may happen any dav, and It is only bv God's providence tbat it has not happened before. Let one such fearful catastrophe happen to day, and your Brooklyn prop eny Is hardly worth that (snapping his flneers). (Ap i plause). We muat have foresight and prudence, we raret prepare against any possible contingency by which that can happen, and we can only do it by having a permanent Bridge. Then if Euch a calamity do occur, if the Bridge exist the people will say, we have the meang of gelling to nnd from Brooklyn without the liability to such an accident.

flow are we going to get such a bridge by this plan? That is the question von are all tbinkiug of. Can wo get bucu a budge by any other plan? I did not know any other plan would be here, and I am not here for the purpose of jalkiog about any other plan which may be suggested in opposition lo tbe ono which we present. We have selected this plan because we thought it Ihe best. It is nobody's plan, but tho 8uggcelion of scientific men. Tbeic is no interest in this plan to be subserved by its adoption.

But we could not adopt a plan liko that (pointing to Mr. Dnw's model) because it is subject to tho fatal objection that it obstructs tbo navigation of the East River. .996:131 Keap and Leo and Marcy. lo 19Gti Iruiteda or ..1977, Srholes do do do do do lots and bouts. lot end do lot nud house.

Fifty years ago it was a iatal objection to building a bridge across tbe river tbat it would impede navigation. Te day inBtead of one or two we count by scores and hundreds, the vessels going through tbo East River.

How much more Ib the objection increased Where iB tbe gentleman loget his power, in State Legislation, or fiom tho United States Government, who demands of ns to obstruct and shut np the finest watercourse in the world, as tbe East liver is? Can he suppose with oil bis plausibility aod eloquence, or witn any other means he may employ, that he can induce ruasonablo men to consent, any reasonable body ot reasonable lefrlalators to permit him to Bhut up the passage of tho East Rivor If we are to stay till wo get relief hy his plan, till some such action be had by this State, and by the federal authorities. It will be after be and and our children ehall have rotted in our graves. But tbis measure we propose Is an Immediate one. It gives us present rel ef and present benefli. If that is practicable, if it can be carried out, let them go and try It.

Cburch The cry has been lor thirty years, when any money was wanted lor these things, tbat property would be increased so mucb in value thit taxation would be reduced, bnt Instead or that us find taxes going np oil tbe time. When Prospect Park waa lngnp tbat was the cry, but atill the taxes gonphUner and btcher. Mr. Wm. C.

Do Witt tbat there were tw arguments advanced by tbe venerable ana wealthy gentleman on his led, (Mr. Cummcyer) wbicb ho felt It incumbent on bim to answer. Toe gentleman said that the advancing of tho proposed three millions of dollars would degrade tbe sureties of the city, but be (Mr. aid not propose lo spend lime upon that point, because in the noxt breatn he admits It would Increase tne taxable property of the city twenty five percent. Mr.

Cammeyersaid he supposed the speaker referred, to him, be would aBk If it would be beneficial to tho poor man to have tno value ot property raised In Brooklvn. Mr. Do Wilt I will ask tho gentleman If tho erection of this brioge will raise the value of property. Mr. Oimmeyer I suppose It will, Sir.

Mr. De Witi Tben If an advance of three mllliona ofdollars will advance the value of the large amount of property in this city, that I contend is a proper answer to Ibe proposition tbat ihe issuing of the loan will degrade the credit of tho City of Brooklyn, but I will pasB i hat and go on to the argument that tbis bridge would be detrimental to tbe in'ie'ests of Ibe poor man. Tho argument is old. It was made anainst sieam engine and against every other Invention for saving buman labor. Now let us go back a few years.

Was the 1 1 borlng man any better off In the City or Brooklyn when propeny was not worth one tenth of what it la to day tbau he ia to day? Does it iollow that because property In one street goes up, the poor man's collage gos any hiyber? On tbo contrary, do not all these improvements inure to the benefit of the poor man by giving him employment? The speaker 'then went on to allude to lha improvements In Paris made by the Emperor Napoleon ihe Pacific Rillroad, and other ereat public improvements, Bhowinz that by them all classes of the community were benefitted. In conclusion be slid th directors of the present company wero above suspicion, and it would be a lamentable exhibition of the wont of public spirit if they were not snpporlod by all classes, rich and poor alike, corporate bodies and individuals. Mr. Nortbnp held that the construction of the bridge wonld reduce taxation and bo a priceless boon to the poor man. What was lha reason tbe thousands of vacant lots iu the cily were not occupied by the poor men to day.

Here we have thousands upon thousands of vacaHt lota which wonld be built np as homes ror the working men, if there were only furnished traveling accommodations by which I hey could cot to their labor in winter. He bad no donbt whatever tbat wltbin five years aftertbncomplelionoflba bridge, the taxable propertv of Brook yn wonH bo increased fifty millions of dollars. He was opposed to the malter going to a vote nf tho people because it wonld bo down. When the proposition to erect the Water Works was put before Ine people, they voted it down several times.

We leave that out of view entirely, ond we present it lo the city of Brooklyn as tho tuing wbicb of all oiheis is most ntccssary for its continued prosperity arld increase. This Bri ige, I will now say, Sir, to answer the quos lion of the gentleman, when complete will cost about eight millions of dollars, and in that estimate I tell tbe gentleman that we include Ihe entire expense of the Bridge from end co end from Sands street, Brooklyn, to tbe City Hall, New York.

Mr. Dow Mr. Roebllng estimates higher. In his report he said from shore to sbnre. Mr.

Murpby here introduced Mr. Rocbllng, who slated that bis estimate for the bridge, not includimr the real estate, was between six and seven millions of dollars, and tbe estimaio of real estate would bring II up ahonr olftht millifena. Mr. Dow rose lo tpeak ag.iin. but Mr.

Murphy clUmed that he bad tbo floor, and said: I repeat that tho entire cost of tbo bridge, aid all connected with it, including land damages, after tbe most carefol estimation on the Dart of Mr. Rneollng, ihe Engineer, and of gentlemen selected for estimating the value of the land and buildings, is about cigbt millions of dollars, pnd no more. Mr. Roebline'a calculation of the expense ol the misonry and of ihe iron work of tho bridge from ono termination to the other, was, as he stales, between six ond seven millions ofdollars and tbe estimate ot I be gentlemen selected for tbe purpose ofvaiuitjg the. land was between one and a half and one ood tfiree nuarter million dollars, thus making the amount which I have already stated, of eight millions.

That includes tbo purchase of tbe land aud everything poastble that we know of, or could imagine would eu tor into tbe iost of the Bridge. The geutleman, therefore, may dismiss from his mind tbat which appears to excite him somewhat, tbat we came here for the purpose of deceivlnp ibe people and rur ntng the ct'y Into an expense of 15 or 18 millions of dollars. How in regard to there ostimateB, 1 may say it although Mr. Roehling is present, tbat thty could not bavo beon made by a more competent mart.

We Eropose no new tbing. Just wbat bus been uilt, and what this gentleman has built, and which is a peif. ct succeBS. There are other plans; there bos been the plan of Innnellng Ihe river. I bave nothing to say particularly about thu, except tbatit is much more expensive than tills; thai il is Impracticable for carnages if not for foot passengers, SB the grade will be nt lease ten feet in a hundred in passing tbe bottom of tbo river.

Tbe pneumatic plan has also been proposed lo run a lube at the bottom of tbe river, and blow pastDgers through. That may possibly do for pas eogers, out we can easily see that it would not do for carnages and conveyances' of different kinds. Toere does not ectm to be anything that prill meet alt the requirements as to the physical connection aud leave tbe river unobstructed, except thiB suspension bridge, of adequate dimensions to carry over mo vehicles, pasreu gers and cars that may be necessary. This plan, which will be explaiocd more fully by Mr. Roebling, embraces these three different features: In Ibe first Jlace it proposes ample footways for foot pasEengers.

proposes two double carriage ways going and relunlnfr. And it proposes two tracks for cara to be moved by stationary power oa trackways about thirteen or fourteen feet each. Passengers will then be carried from Sands street, Brooklyo, to the Cily Hall, N. by stationary power in less than five minutes, saving tbem almost a half mile on either side of tbe River in carriage or walking, an3 taking tbe people of Brooklyn to wnere tbey have not been able to get by any direct conveyance to Broadway, N. Y.

You tbns open all the npper part ol New York and tba western part of of Broadway, to Brooklyn, You tuna create an entirely new field for Brooklyn. A set nf people, persons engaged in these localities of New York, who have never hitherto come loBrootlyn to live, will now have every inducement to come; yon empty as It were tbat ereat cily Into this, the business men of that cily into Brooklyn for residence, I do not anooose of course tbat the Brltige Is going to give Brooklyn ali the advintagea and conveniences New York possesses nut give us the Bridge, and then we will bave all those local institutions wbicb will attach these men here and will increase tbe chancer of our buildlDgs and public Institutions; and we will not be as now. In ens. quince of tne impediment between us and New. York, we are consioered a mire suburb, as in fact we arc.

Mr.

J. W. Dow then addressed ihe Committee at somelenL'th, presenting thenlun heretofore diaciiBsed in the Eaolb, of a srlesof four bridge, built on lour Elera eacn, aud making four lines nf streets and wa're onses, cxtendiug Irom New York lo Brooklyn. Ho claimed tbatlheaooption of this plan would uoi costtho citf one cen', the rent of warehouses paying the cost, and that it would werk to tbo advantage of toe harbor by offering belter facilities ford. and harf aee, while as be asserted, tbe bridne was liable at any time to snap and burl its fieiabt into tbe river.

Mr, Dow said he was very sorry to have to oppose a scheme brought forward by Mr, Murph? and hers whmn ho bo htuuiy reBptctfid ba no one who 'ad croseed ine Ewrt river daily and watched tbe growth of population, coold doubt that something more loan a mere bridge was needed to meet tho wants of Brooklyn. His Slan bad been studiously kept out. of tte rooklyn papers, which were afraid to niscusa it lest it should withdraw snpport. from lac bridge project. Mr.

Dow presented a model shotting, bis lx teea ntcrs. and explained bow trie draw brirle be lUnson place ijei.be 13 unncni i aim i mm inrce qu jner miiltoni. Now I assume ibut the expeuee of this work will notex CJe'd 8 millions, for the reason that these calculations have been ha. ed on tne prices of labi.r anu mat iials as ihcy stand to day, when every indication nr ihe line Btmws that my expect oediictieu in hotn tbe value of mai rial and lab. r.

So ibai most iifcely ih expense of constructing this Badge will bo ss tbun tbe estimaio of eight millluus which we have assumed ou the ha is of the calculations. And what do we nek or the Cily of Brooklyn We astt her to suoscrine tie amount of ibree millions or allitlemore thuu one tbird nf tbe wboln cost tbo inn rest of which, if it fhnuld full on the taxable o'op eriy of the city t' pay. wruld bo but one mill and a ball' per cent, on tho r'oilT. It would amonui.at seveu per coat.

Now, this would tic a remuneration to the public fur tt.is eub Ecripti cm? if they oid not receive a dollar by way of interest, on tue cspi'al ram Ibe investment itself.

Ho was confident that, bridge or no brioge. tbe demanos of r.omto.rce would ulilmaiely comp I us to convert the East Btver Into docks as bis scheme proposed. Mr. D. L.

Nortbup and Mr. Rodney Cburch made a few remarks, af er which Mr. Dow rose again and asked whe.tier the was lo cover tbe entire cost of the bridge, oronty the DOrtioa from shorn to shore. Hon. Htnry C.

Mnrphy then rcse and spoke as follows: Gentlemen of the Committee: I occupy, as yon well understand, the poeluorr of President of the Bridgo Company, not by tiny seeking of my own, but by tba request 'i tbo gentlemen nam. as Directors of It, in tbe net Df incorporation. Audi suppose if is therefore propfr for me to answer tbe question proposed by Mr. Dow. Beloro doing ao I wish to reciprocate hire what that gentleman has expressed, my very high appreciation of the character of Mr.

Dow. I have known him for a very lont period, us he has said, almost tooionir to mention, i may be lorty years, sir, and I have always found blmlo be an honorable, truthful man and I know he veiuld net come h. re to advocat" any plan unless befincerely believed In its efficacy. But wbfle, at thesauri time I accoro to him that character and that feeliig in the matter, Imusiplaim for myself, nnd for tko gentlemen with wnom associated the same iurity of mo'ive and th same honor. TMs oompmy.air, present themselves before yon becausrlby tho act til' lucoporation thecily or Brooklyn wbb au thoiized lend its aid to this enterprise, and lxcan we helievnit is only by the city of Brooklyn taking part in it that we can rcasor abty expect the succeee which it I' servei', and within a reasonible time.

But wo no so firmly, with tbo conviction, tsir, that this If hullt will be of untold alue to thu lniereBts or toe city of Bmoslvn and to its property, enhancing itc means of enterprise and enhancing tho value ofiti taxable eBtates, Wc do not present it to jOxford and i. imcjr iu iuciea in agreater ratio iban the population one side ol tbe Thames ju Loi.dot., or on one side of ma Si loo In Paris is likely to increasu compired with the other psniim of London or Paris. Iu other words, from tbe peculiar location nud relations of New York and IIMiikiyn, tbe ultimate pmiulati 'n of this me ropolis muatprrponderaWon the Brooklyn ride that Is.ir we mike the physical conuictlon wnloti we seek 'o make hy ihe lirldge. If recao onco nnlte Brooklyn and New York, so that we hae entire safety lo crossing, and ihe means of transportation at times, then the population on this ude of the rlvr must from the very phy lcal conriiim these two places give Brooklyn the advantage (applausi). Now mere ate two citenrostaners which militate aga'nst tbe popala lnn goinu to theother Bide of the Notth river, as.iutimatid by my friend, Mr.

Dow. Tb North river no spanned by a bridge. You will Ond, and Mr. Riebling will convince vou ou that, polut, tbat tbe limits of a Bo nsiun btidgo are such that it cannot be turowu over tae Nrtb rivor, 'and ihereforo tho Noith river mui't evir formau impediment against tbe going out lo any vesv gieat or scrlons rxl nt or population on tbo opposite aide or tbat rler New York, therefore, on the wost side is hemmed in, la stnnted lu her growfi wo mny consider all this locality as a part of New York. Th re is another circumstance, aod that is, tbat Jersey is a Ton inn jurisdiction it is another State.

Tha' will always iiavo an effnc to prevent the population from frtelv ovr to th other Bide of tae river. If Brooklyn nd New York be a.tted, the frre tendene nod natural law is for popn In ion to here.
