I'lns would mean ail advance, at tlie end of ten years, of at least $50,000,000 anuuallv in tlie gross receipts; indi'iitiug the ability of tlie traffic of ten years hence to carry an investment of $300,000,000 over tlie investment in the present rapid transit lines.

Tlie eunp'i'ees have recognized that the revenues derived from the growth of tlie future will be distributed through all parts of the extended system; but they have no doubt that tlie share falling to the short haul district as xvell ns (lie eontributnry yield of the long haul lines they are planning to link xvitli the short haul district vvi uld be amply sufficient to carry not only the new Manhattan' lines of Ilie Interhorongh Company, hut the proposed line on Broadway. The In-terborough Pompany's earnings iikiii ils investment in the present subway are between 17 and IH per cent. The figures of tlie Fuhlic Service Commission indicate that, although Ilie percentage of profit on all the old lines must, of necessity, fall temporarily within tjie first years of operation of the new, the margin remaining to the Interborougli would be ample to entry its present investment.

A number of officers were hustled to tlie scene on a run, but after surrounding the house aud making a thorough search, could find no truce of a burglar or of a burglary. Investigation disclosed to the police that the residence, until wns owned by Gordon Lognn, a wealthy retired banker, who, when he went on a trip around the world, leased the house and its contents to J. H. Hannan, the wealthy shoe manufacturer. Mr.

Hannan liked the house so well thst through Logans attorneys, he purchased it. iaist Sunday the Hannan family went to their summer home and the keys were left with a neighbor who was to look after the house until workmen had removed all the furnishings, which Mr. Hannan did not buy. Oneofthe workmen forgot his coat and returned for it on Sunday night. After leaving the house it -was found hy the sen-ant of the friend who lmd, the key that the window was open.

Yesterday she. therefore, went into the house and while closing down the window, a woman who lives in a house situated in tlie rear of the Hannan home noticed an arm closing the. window. Suspecting that burglars were at work, she telephoned the police. The burglar scare aroused the neighborhood.

The only reason for withholding action for the present on these lines is tlint the conferees hate been adtised that a tunnel may be built to Staten Island for ilie carrying of both freight and passenger service, wit it the ennstrurtmn of which an imidenlal $1 will lie saved in the shifting of the mains ol tile Catskili water supply, libit could be carried to tlte island in this ttav.

Il is proposed that the Brooklyn nt-pany. as a further addition In its on system, build the Brighton Bern it exton-sain from Ilie Mallmne station to a point of coupim turn with the Fourth avenue and East Ithcr tunnel lines, at its own expense: the argument being that this line by itself would be sennenblp otdv to the company, ami tlint in the eent of recapture it would lie of no practical use to the city.

That in estimating the expense of operation upon the new lines or upon extensions of any character, the basis be the so-cnllcdjjpiisscngcr mile unit as gainst the Tar mile unit. Upon this point the conferees submit a lengthy argument as one of the eighteen np- Kendiees. In the negotiations, the intcr-orongh Company has declined to yield on this point, although the Brooklyn Company accepted it. That the companies banning discount Incidental to the loans they secure shall not be included in the account of cost of construction, but that brokerage not to exceed 3 per cent, may be allowed. A separate argument ia submitted on thia point alto.

'I he Interborough and Manhattan com-1 panics oeffred a year ago to do this work at their own expense, if the city woitin grant the franchises and eejit as an annual rental "two per epnt. of the aggregate inert asc in tin gross receipts at the new express stations." The conferees have stood out for fifty ter cent, of the increase in net profit on the entire system.

bile this change, as proposed, lias not been accepted, it is understood that the representatives of the city and the company have not been far apart and that some settlement may yet be reached that will permit au immediate start upon the third tracking work. Bilges are attached mentioning in the report Ilie matter of the use of Broadwav by the Brooklyn system, to which it is understood the Interbornugh company objects, and with relation also the city's present financial ability In build ilie new lines it would Imre to take care of under either plan 11s well as the estimated (osts of construction. The report proper consists of forty-six pages and carries ninety pages of ap-pendhes composed chiefly of statisthal tables and the elaborated argument upon flip more intpbrtant points still under discussion. The report proper of the Board of Estimate's Committee recommends that the committee he continued with authoritv to submit tlte proposed terms to the respective companies and to reieive their replies. It has Ion urged that the linking of the Brooklyn system witli the projected Broadwav line upon which the plan for the broader relief of Brooklyn depends absolutely would result in a reduction of the present revenues of the Interbofough company to a point that would forbid th carrying of its own proposed new lines.

We lielievp. however, that fears of this sort are without basis. The conferees have accepted throughout their consideration of Ilie matters iiefore them estimates of future traffic prepared, from every available source, by the stnlisti-einns of the Public Service Cnjnmission. The figures of the past show flint street railway traffic generally in New York City increases in the ratio of the square of the increase in population. Even if future growth falls beneath thia rate, il is certain, at least, to increase at a rate not less than double the rate of increase of population provided, of course, that additional rapid transit facilities are available.

The of increase-in --the current decade iDltbliloot Mas been estimated variously from 38.7 per cent, (the rate in 190(1-1910) to 43 per cent. No one lraa estimated It at lesa than 35 per cent. With these conservatfve figures as a basis, jt is assume that the traffic of the next ten years will increase not less than 70 pr which would mean that the traffic of 1920 would give the rapid transit linea 1.000,000,000 additional five-cent fare annually. The ex-perienre-of the Manhattan -surface lines. the essential provisions of the Iubli Service I-aw governing operation and management, strengthened wherever the city so -requires.

All coni rads for the eonstrudion of Ollier than iity lines are to Ik- let subject to tlie approval of ilie Commission to their form and term. There is an exhaustive review of the negotiations upon terms between the 0111-lerces and tin- representatives of the oinpanies. The report recites that the utcrhnrniigh Company li.is offered, in adJ 111011 lo its proposal of Dec. 5, 1910. Io mid and operate on a half-and-half basis with the City the elevated line- in northern t.lueeiis and extensions of certain of the Bronx lines farther north, and the operation of tin much discussed new line from Long Island City under the river to Times Square: theme down Broadway to Foiirleonlh street anil by wav of the I'nion Sqiate route to the District and by wav of Eastern Parkway liai lo Fhitbnsh avenue and the Bnt-lery tunnel.

The conferees do not believe. however, tlint any part of Broadway should be occupied in such a way as to prevent its use for a througii route, and they have therefore rejected this part of the Interborougli plan and declare f'W Ilie througii Broadway line of the Brooklyn 'nnipany Tlie Inter! orough Company also agreed during the conferences lo treat the Jerome avenue and White Plains road lines as extensions of the subway system and not of the elevated lines, and lo accept a modiheathm of its present leases with the City "provided tlie lien of any duly authorized mortgage be not dis-turia'd." so as to give the City the right to take over at any time after ten years either the East Side leg of the present subway south of Forty-second street or the West Side leg running north through Broadway with its natural extensions, as part of a continuous north and south line, if life City chose to take such line for independent operation. The company would agree to the limitation of its earnings on the new lines to tiiree per cent, over tlie cost of carrying its investment. 11s long as deficits remain on extensions. It would agree also to divide all costs of const ruction evenly witli the city, rather than to deal with indefinite figures.

Tlie report cites Hint the Brooklyn eoinpanr lias met practically all of the requirenii nls ns lo operation, and that the InterlKirough still resists. It lease, however, two points of difference itli the former company based upon the place in the new system of the Brooklyn Company's present lines. The conferees recommend that the amount reserved annually to the Brooklyn company in lieu of its present earnings be fixed at the rale of the present year's nei income; that is, about $3,000,000, while the company has contended for the rate of the last year preceding the operation of the new system; or. else, a maximum-minimum arrangement under which tiny would start with the receipts of the present year, and go as high as $3,500,000 as the rate to throughout the contract.
