COLER GOES TO ALBANY. the Controller's Office During the last Thirteen Month $308,000 Ont of $2,432,056 Ha Been Paid on Judgment Confessed by the Corporation Counsel The Con. troller Objects, and Both Explain Their Positions. Corporation Counsel Whalen was averse, when seen to-day, to discussing the statements of Controller Coler in repird to the proposed legislation to give the Controller something to say in connection the confession of judgments against the city. bill having this purpose has been pre sented at Albany, nnd a public hearing on takes place to-day before the Citiet Committee of the Assembly.

Controller Color went to Albany this morning to at tend tbe hearing. In his utterances the Controller has in timated that the cause of this resort to tbe Legislature is the large number of claims that have been filed against the city recently under the law entitling em ployees of the city to be paid at the prevailing rate of wages." As a result of the passage of this law, hundreds of claim's have been filed against the city for hundreds of thousands of dollars. In the past thirteen months claims have been filed in the Controller's office aggregating while $308,000 has been paid on judgment confessed by the Corporation Counsel. "The attempt of the Controller in this connection, said Mr. i halen, when pressed to discuss the proposed legislation.

is not new. Every Controller of the city of New York since the days of Andrew H. Green has objected to the confession of judgment without their sanction. None of them was successful. When the thing is understood, it will be conceded that to require the approval of any other official than the legal advisor of the city for the confession of a judgment, would only lead to confusion.

"A person hiving a claim against the city presents It to the Controller. If that official refuses payment, the recourse -of the individual having the claim is to the courta. The Corporation Counsel then comes into the case as the representa tive oi the city. It is for him to consider the law in the case and if judgment is confessed it is because it is for the best interests of the city that sued a course should be followed. 'The records of this office are at all times open to the scrutiny of the public.

The Controller passes on the facts, while the Corporation Counsel passes on the legal features." The statement has been made by the Con troller that certain lawyers have been Uking advantage of the conditions caused by the law requiring the payment of the prevailing rate of wages to city employees, and they are reaping a rich harvest by prosecuting these claim. 'While these claims ire made in the name of labor," said tbe Controller, "and tbe proceeding is nnder a law passed in the interest of labor, it should he pointed out that laboring men have othing to do with this attempt to raid the city treasury, and reap no benefit from it. 1 am abso lutely powerless while the attitude of the Corporation Counsel is to confess judg ments on these claims and to refuse me information as to claims thit are pending." The Controller declares that he has been informed by men that they have requested to assign their claims, which tbey have later ascertained were paid without their knowledge. "It looks, said the Controller, "as though some of these lawyers got a claim paid without telling their clients about it, snd then sent an agent to bny the client's claim for a small part of the payment." The bill pending in the Legislature re quires that the approval of the Controller shall be necessary to the confession of all judgments for $10,000 or less, and in the case of larger amounts the approval of the Maror shall also be required. In tne first year of the present adminis tration Controller Coler took Issue with the Corporation Counsel on the confession by the latter of a judgment.

The matter was taken into the courts and the Corporation Counsel won the case, the Controller being represented by a taxpayer. meeting Of the Brotherhood of St. Andrew to Be Held This Evening. Tbe pre-Lenten meeting of the Long Island Assembly, Brotherhood of St. Andrew.

The Bridge Commiiiioneri mnd the Grand Street ImproTement Aaso- elation Haa Had Conferenee-The Coit of the New Thorooghf are la Eitiniated at Abont $350,000. The New East River Bridge Commissioners and the Executive Committee of the Grnnd Street Improvement Association kaveNcompleted series of conference con-eerning the ndvisnliility of cutting street through from Grnnd nnd Hooper streets to the proposed nluza of the New East River Bridge, which will lie lit the corner of Havemeyer and South Fifth streets. Theodore P. Fritz, the president of the improve ment association, told a "Citizen" reporter to-day that the New East River Bridge Commissioners are heartily In favor of the project and that they will do all in their power to see that tne improvement is carried out. "The Inst time we met tlitf Commis sioners." said Mr.

Mr. Fritz added that the property could easily he acquired l)y the city through con demnation proceedings, and that at a very fair estimate would not cost more than $350,000. Mr. Fritz then gave the reporter the following figures: Nine pieces of property in Grand street, appraised valuation South First street, 21 pieces of property, MaTcy avenue, 16 pieces of property, South Second street, 32 pieces of property, South Fourth street.

8 pieces of property, $36, 700; South Third street, 13 pieces of prop erty, $61,700: nodney street, 4 pieces of property, Havemever street, A pieces of property. Sli.SOO. "This," said Mr. Fritz, "makes a total of $313,000. But we are willing to allow a little more so that no mistake will he made.

If you look over th property, you will see that there is a public school in South Fourth street. We will take part of this' school. It is a primary school, at tended bv very small children, and is an old building. Our contention is that the building should be razed to the ground long before the bridge in completed. With the construction of a bridge a new condition of affairs will be started and the school will be entirely out of place in its present location.

The new bridge will be In the true sense of the word a railroad bridge, and there will be continual traffic back' ward and forward. You will see that the plaza will be but two short blocks from the school, and the lives of the little ones jeopardized. For that reason we favor the demolition of the school. The intention of the association is to have the street completed the sime day that the bridge is opened to the public Mr. I.

S. Remion, one of the original organizers of the movement, when seen by "Citizen" reporter, said: "In my opinion, the1 street will be built without any agitation whatever on the part of the citizens of the Fifteenth Ward. and the only reason we are working for it Is to have the thoroughfare completed at the same time as the bridge. There will be considerable traffic at the bridge plaza, and in order to avoid congestion, there must he a direct outlet from the plaza It will benefit the farmers on Long Island who bring their produce Into the city." Borough President Grout, Senator P. McCarren.

Register Howe. Cord Meyer, James Langan, Deputy County Treasurer Thomas F. Farrell and Lawyer William Mflthiaa are strongly In favor of the new street. It was brought up in 1882 by Mr. James Langan, who prepared a bill.

This bill was introduced in the Legis lature, where it was formally killed. The bill called for the opening of a street from Grand nnd Hooper streets to Driggs avenue and Broadway, where the Williamsburg Savings Bank- Is located. At the same time there was a movement on foot to widen Flatbuth avenue, and both meas urea were killed simultaneously. The merchants of lower Grand street are opposed tp this scheme, claiming thot should it go through, their business will be thoroughly ruined. This objection Is met by the uptown business people, with the assertion that Grand street, below Hooper, will be dead, anyway, and that the best thing the merchants an do Is to move further up.

It will be, the same, they claim, as lower Fulton MUSICAL ITEMS. A miulcale wss given last evening at St. Catherine's Hull, Washington avenue, un der the direction of Mr. Arthur Voorhees, director of music at the school. The ar.isti 1 v-i-ah were lilicy r.

He said whenever an at tempt was made to do anything with the currency, the cry went tip from the press of both parties that it was to be al; sold and no silver or the reverse to that, as the political feelings might dictate. Hamilton and Jefferson investigated the question from a fundamental standpoint, snd there- was no politics in it.

It wis so in TAcb ster' time. All these great men believed the double standard was the best system, but that it could be obtained only by the concerted action of nations. Mr. Tlatt in his speech created much merriment by alluding to Mr. Cork rell as the "witsrd of Missouri," asserting the Senator must have a magic pen if he thought a law could be given a commodity value it did not possess.

Mr. Flatt contended that half of the silver money In the world was not worth over fiftv cents on tbe dollar, and he cited ferlen a one of the eountrle. Mr. Teller sharply reptied and declared Mexico bad no gold in Wreulntlon. After a heated discussion between these Senators, Mr.
