With the Bridee Terminal at Tillary Street lie Company Will Put In Elevators to Accommodate the People A Conferonco 'VVitli Mnyor Sehleren. Thoro was a conference at tho mayor's office yesterday afternoon, between Mayor Schieren, Bridge President Howell, Engineer Martin nnd representatives of the elovatod railroads, on tho terminal plans in.

thoir relation to the elevated railway tracks. Certain ohangos in tho railroads will bo necessary, in the event of the adoption of tho Tillary streot terminal plans, nnd what tho mayor wanted to know was Whether for the cost of such changes it is proposed to hold tho city liable. General Jourdaa ot tha Kings County elevated oxplained what his company would have to do, and said: "We have got to have side trackage betwoen tho main track on Fulton stroet and the bridge to accommodate bridge trains, so that tho main track down Fulton street will be unobstructed. It will be necessary to have a spur for the accommodation of bridge trains between the tracks on Fulton street and the bridge terminal building." The general, in reply to the mayor, said ho had no doubt that the plan would be ontirely practicable, and the cose of the structures to be erected by the company would bo borne by the company alone. "I was told by somebody," said the mayor, "that the olevatod roads would not expend another cent on their terminal at tho bridge." Wehavo said," remarked General Jourdan, that we ougrht to be allowed the cost of the Btructure at High street, we take down.

Wo incurrod a large expense, believing tho bridge was finished. Now, if the bridge is compolled to move to another place, we ought to be allowed the oxponso of that structure 'Would you charge tho city anything at nil in ease this plan is udoptodV" asked the mayor. "What I want to know is whether thoro will bo any obligation upon the city "Tho only obligation is I think we ought to bo allowed the oost ot tho struoturo," ruplied General Jourdan, "We would not need any depot at High street. Thsro is every disposition on tho part of the Kings County road to carry out this scheme." Engineer Nichols, representing the Brooklyn Elevated Railroad company, said they would have to depress their tracks at the now station about three fet. To depress them would bo costly and it would involvo the uso of a steeper grado from Sands street down to Adams and York streets.

He regarded this as ob.jee tionable. Mr. Nichols said they hod not studied these plana as a serious poesibility. They considered these plans objcotionablo because they did not provide properly fer the reception of tho grat mass of people who walked over the bridge to Sands street and who would be debarred from convenient access to tho olevatod roads. "It seems to mo," ho went on, "wo should be obligod to retain our station on Sands street in the hope of getting a portion of those passengers who now walk over the bridge.

If we established a station at the junction of Sands and Adams streets, thoy would have some two hundred feet to walk before they could reach tho station and then they would havo to climb the stairs. The surface cars would get a majority of tho people. If we maintain the Sands street station substantially as it is now. the changes in that station would bo comparatively Mayor Schieron asked whether, If this Tillary street plan is adopted, tho city would be under any obligations would the railroad company make any claim for expenses. Mr.

jSichols eoufd not speak definitely, but he thought whatever changes ther were the company would expect the city to reimburse it. He should ay would cover the wholo thing. President Howell asked if it would cost as much as tho gridiron plan. "That involves," replied Mr. Nichols, "the construction of a new line from High stroet and the construction of a curve there which would give us much better faollitles than we could possibly get at this other point." President Howell asked about the number of promenade passengers carried by the road and Mr.

Nichols said they were low. They had to climb sixty llvu feet. On the new plan the company proposod to put in elevators to accommodate tho peoplo. "Wo are considering it at various points along tho line," said Mr. Nichols.

"I think we shall have to do "Thegreat objection to the old plan," said the mayor, "are the posts which your company would put up in tho plaza." "They would be placed at long intervals," said Mr. Nichols. "Now, wo can do muoh better than evr boforo. They are making such improvements in building and in large girders, etc." "Doesn't your loop interfere with tho other railroad?" asked tho mayor. "That has been gone over to some extent.

As last planued, I think many of tho objections in that respect were removed." In further talk, Mr. Nichols Bold the company thought tne plan before them was romoto, nnd that the other one would be adopted. Mr. Nichols said that the whole matter under discussion would be brought before tho executive committee of the company. General Jourdan said that a strong feature of tho Tillary stroet plan was that it was a permanent settlement of tho terminal question.

Mayor Schieren said it not only settled tho permanence, but It also takes a cloud off of tho property thereabouts. Everybody was anxious to have this vexed question of tho bridge settled. "It will be settled forever," said President Howell. After some further informal talk tho conference was brought to a close. QUAKItELED AT A SOIREE.

He Professes to Be a Follower oT the G. 0. Voted the Democratic HcUet, Was an Anll (Jaynor Watcher at the Polls, Is Very Ignorant About Some Thims. The tissombly committee which is investigating the contest of William H. Friday against James Graham for tho seat from tho Sixteenth assembly district continued its session at tho common couucil ohamber in tho city hall yesterday afternoon.

The first witness for Mr. Graham was Harry Sturtevant, Coney Island plumber, who testified beforo tho scnatw committor. He testified that ho had sometimes employed as high as ISO mon and repeated hi former testimony as to the rapid increase of hotels in tho Second olection district of Graves end and about his experience as a Hopublican watcher on olection day. On cross examination tho witness testified that bo was an honorary member of tho John Y. McKano association; ho didn't know what that meait oxactly, but when tho association gave its last ball his name appeared as secretary.

Ho said ho voted tho Eepublioan ticket iu 18SS, but didn't know whether he was with McKano that yoar or not. He wont to Wash fngton with MoKano for Harrison's inauguration, but ho had nover tnllccd politics with him. He added that ne avoided the discussion of polities or religion. On examination as to tho extent ol his knowledge as to how the olection in Gravesend the witness became tangled up, but stuck to his answer that to tho best of his knowlodgo and belief there was no fraud iu Gruveseud. He declined to swear that 1.500 lived in the Seoond district thirty days boforo election, but swore that he bolioved they did.

He admitted that ho knew every house in the Second district. Whon he was asked to name tho houses in which thoso men lived ho named the Hamilton Hats, which ho said had twenty nino apartments, but said ho couldn't tell how many men lived thero. He believed that liushman, the brewer, employed a largo number of men, ho finally fixed at twenty. He was asked about tho population of the Second di trieton Novombor 7, and said ha didn't know. Tho witnoss was a Republican watcher in tho Sixth election district, but wasn't present all tho timo during tho count.

By way of explanation ho added that he didn't think tho count needed any watching because it was in the hands of honest men. Asked if, as Republican, he was surprised that only 10 Republican votes wero oast out of 1,500 iu the Seoond election district, tho witness replied, Not very much surprised." He said he know all the election officers in the Second district, but had not discussed tho count with one of them since the nlectlon. Ho added that his intoront in polities then censed. On redirect examination tho witness was asked on what he based his opinion that tho count In the Sixth district was honestly conducted and ho replied, "On my knowledge of the honesty and integrity of tho election officors." Michael J. Cummlngs.

city clerk, was sworn and testified that Sehiereu's vote for mayor in tho Tweaty fKth ward was 4,856 and 2.277"in the Twenty fourth. Jlr. Judge offered tho evidence to show that Friday ran behind lits ticket. Mr. Elliott made Mr.

Cummings swear that no mayor had ever received such a vote as Mr, Schieren. Michael P. Murphy, sergeant of police in Gravesend, testiiled that he had lived in Coney Island twelve or fourteen years, that ho was a Republican and votod in the Second district. Tho votes were boing taken rapidly when lie voted and ho had to wait to get into a booth. He was a Republican watcher in tho Third district, watched the count from start to finish saw no fraud or irregularity ther.

He said that ho was a resident of the Second district, but had no definite knowledge of tho population or the number of voters in the distnot. On cross examination Sergeant Murphy said ho became a Bspublican in 1HSH, but didn't remomber what his politics was when he was appointed; he had "no material intorest In politics then." Ho said was on a leave of absence during elee tioa week, whon he became an election watcher. Chief McKano gave him the leave, but he novor discussed tho use ho intended to make of his vacation. Tho witnoss said he was a good Republican on election dav but declined to say how he voted. Ho aid not base his declination on the ground that the answer would tend to degrnde or incriminate mm, and alter long argument tho witness, with a very red flow, replied that he did not vote the Republican tiokot.

He said that he did not think it wus inconsistent for him to be a Republican watcher and vote the tirkot. Ho also said that during his vacation he was one ol tho copyists employed boforo election and copied names from tho rogistry books which ho found In the polling place. Ho didn't know how tho names got onto th registry lists. Mr. Elliott fenced a long time with tha witness to Dud out what timo ho voted, and finally got it flxod about 7 or 8.

Ho found ten or twelvo persons ahead of him. and thought It might have taken him two minutes to vote; ho couldn't swear that ho cot through in less than five minutes. He wouldn't say whether or not ho believed that 1.500 votes could bo cast in Gl'2 minutes. Ho said ho didn't know how many saloons or hotels tharo aro in tho at Coney Island, his duties being inside the police station. The witness testiiled tnat he was at tho town hall at 5:30 on election morning, but didn't seo Colonel liacon that day, didn't soo any row or hear about one until it was all ovr.

He declined to say where ho was between 5:30 and the opening of the polls. Ho was asked if he knew of moro than thro hundred or four hundred voters living in the Second district on election day, and said he thought there were moro than that, as several large hotels wero open then. Ho could only name tho Clarendon and Stubonborg's, but said tnere were several others which he couldn't tell by namo. On redirect examination Sergeant Murphy said that he votod a split ticket, with somo Republican and somo Democratic candidates. It was developed that the only Hopublican ho voted for was Sheriff Buttling.

William J. Cox, the Republican politician of the Twenty fifth ward, was the next witnoss. He testiiled that before election ho met William H. Friday, aud denied that ho told Friday that his votes iu Gravesoad would not be counted, or that he offered to bet Friday that fifty votes would not bu counted for him in Gravesend. He swore that ho didn't talk with Charles Huron during tho campaign.

He said that ho was a warm admirer of John McKano. It came out that ho had not been subpenaod as a witness, but testified voluntarily. Jamos Gumming testiiled that he lived in Sheepshead Bay and was a Republican olection watcher in tho Fourth district. His evidence was substantially the same which ho gave to the senate committee.

A Conference Rctween the Commissioners and a Committee of the lire were' Board of Trndo.

The Question or Transferring Licenses Discussed at Length. At tho request of a committee from the Brow cm' Board of Trade ef New York und Brooklyn a conferenco was held between the committoa and tho uewly appointed excise board in tho mayor's office, in tho city hall, last night concerning the attitude of the latter toward the license transfer question. Commissioner Welien presided. There were present James Lieb mana of Obcrmoyor Liebmnna, Herman Scharmunn or A. B.

Seharmann's Sons, F. Clarkson of tho Budweiser Browing compan7 und John Zlpp of the Sohaofer Brewing company of the committee and Commissioners Forrester and Hacker, togother with Jacob Brenner, counsel to the board. After Mr. Wolleo called the meeting to ordor Chairman Lleb munu of the committee spoke as i'ollorrs: We reprcseat the brewing industry of New York aud vicinity, comprising somo thirty ilve firms and corporations, whose product is over six million barrels of beer annually, amounting to two thirds of the total product of the stata and 20 pur cent, ot the whole. United States.

Out of these thirty live linns there are thirty loeatod in this city whose output amounts to over a million barrels per year. We employ from to S.O'.IO men in this city who earn, good wages all the year round. Tho financial depression which been so universally folt has not resulted in the discharge of any of our employes or the reduction of their salaries. Whatever there has been of its ill effects has been borne by the firms thorn solves. At this important juncture, when a now administration is taking hold, we would like to he informed a.s to what way tha excise law will In: execute, and how tho breweries will stand with the new excise board concerning the transfer of licenses.

Inasmuch as brewers have large amounts of money involved, and are to step in frequently to lend a helping bund to a poor customer and as the power vested in you is absolutely discretionary i no success oi Dr' una t.tio retailer depends in remarkable degree us to how tho law will be executed by the new board in the llltlire. CoinmitteenintiZippexplained to theEAOXK reporter that the transfer of licenses was carried out on this plan. A saloonkeeper is compelled for various reasons to vacate his place of business before the expiration of his license. It may be that he is compelled to move by his landlord, or the location is a poor one and" he wants to seek better quarters, or possibly he may want to go out of business altogether. If he should sell his license to another, what the brewers wanted to know was, would the excise board recogniza the new owner in bis request to locate in another part oT town to do business on tho unexpired license? in this regard a license is something in the nature of a cheek and tho brewers would like the privilege of transferring sueii licenses by simply indorsing the fact on the back.

It is this portion of the law that is purely discretionary with the'exciso board and as changes are constantly occurring the importance of such a privilege is apparent. In reply to Mr. Lii bintum's remarks Commissioner Welles replied that inasmuch us die new board did not assume control until February 1 anything he said he wished to be considered unofficial. All meetings they had held had been purely preliminary and they had not met to formulate any definite plan of action. As to the tran.sfer of licenses, that was a matter upon which they would havo to consult their counsel ami therefore could not commit themselves to any particular line of action.

He hnd no doubt, hownver, that the commissioners and the brewers would be able to work harmoniously. In regard to the saloon business, Mr. Wolios stated very emphatically that it was the intention of tho board to see to it that the traffic was oonducted on an elevatod plane and tho tone raised. Saloons that were run by disreputable peoplo in a dis reputublo way, such as dives where low characters congregate and vice was encouraged, would be promptly suppressed. Committeeman Clarkson stated that the committee was present ns brewers, and not concerned with tho retail trade further than their relations as supplying the th't saloon keeper for beer.

"Wo aro not hero," said ho, "to represent any industry other than, the wholesale trade." Mr. Clarkson said that the committee would be only too hnppy to eo oporate with tho new board along any und all lines as far us they possibly could. Mr. Welles replied that the importance of tha license transfer question would bring it among tho llrst to be considered after tho organizatioa of tho board. Ho then asked Chairman Liob maun how the license transfer business had boen handlod in tho past.

Mr. Liobmaun stated that it would take him two hours ana a halt to make a clear statement of the matter, and wished to be excused. He then requested that tho now board inform the committee as soon as convenient after February 1 just what cours they proposed to take. Tho meeting then ad journod. CORRECTING SCHOOL COMPOSITION.

Superintendent Gives Teacher a iv HSintw. Superintendent William H. Maxwell lectured on Wednesday night beforo tho department ot pedagogy of tha Brooklyn institute, his subject being "Recommendations to Teachers for Labor Saving Mothods in Correction of Compositions." Mr. Maxwell recommended somo tiiax ago a plan of having the compositions written in ink, and ono fourth correctod ouch week by tho teacher. Notes of the princinal error wore made and tho clas was taught the corroet form.

This led the pupils to criticise thoir own work. A new plan, howevor. which tho superintendent now recommended wus to havo eacli pupil write dully a short composition, taking not over ten or fifteen minutes' time In which to do it, tho subject to be taken directly from class work. The pupils road them aloud aud mistakes wero corrected as fnst as they wero observed. What the pupils had to arh was best accomplished by doing it each day.

No on could be mado to write well unless ho or she wrote for the purposo of expressing thought. His composition should bo on what he is thinking of most. The study of grammar would find practical application in correcting compositions. Tha prevention of errors by proper teaching was more important than tho correcting of them. Children should be taught to see when a sentence naturally closes and not to run them togethor.

The teacher should see to it that correct language was used. In correcting, tho superintendent said, the teacher should llrst seo If the pupils had put all they had to say about one suCject in one paragraph, aud bogun another with a new subject. Then ascertuin If each sentnnee contained only one thought, Notice if it wae written grammatically. Punctuation should then be looked to. Correction of tho spellinf; was another requirement.
