a a a THE DAILY STANDARD UNION: BROOKLYN, NEW YORK CITY. SUNDAY. SEPTEMBER 2. 1917. Bridge In the elevated trains from Cast New York, Cypress Fills, Canarale and Rid rewood will transfer from the Centre street loop, at Canal and Centre, streets, to the Broadway trains and vice-versa, it making no difference to them which line the Broadway operation belongs to.

It is, probable that the Bay Ridge trunk line of the South Brooklyn subway will have the most persons to travel up Broadway in the rush hours, while in the evening the Sea Beach Coney Island line will carry the crowds to the ocean. Speaking of this question of the train operation in Broadway, Commissioner Travis H. Whitney says: "As the Ben Beach, West End and branches alL furnish trains to the Eighty- sixth street (Bay Ridge) Fourth avenue subway, which now terminate at Chambers street, It 18 as yet uncertain which class of trains will permanently operate up Broadway. Experiments will have to which be made until it IN ascertained section of South Brooklyn furnishes a greater proportion of passengers desiring to go north of Canal street and which method of operation will cause the greatest convenience to the traveling public, Such matters cannot be determined in advance certain and the public must endure a. amount of experimenting in this opwhich will prove to be the best for eration until a system can be evolved the greatest number of passengers." Financial Man's View.

A well recognized financial authorIty says of operation of the new subway up Broadway In the heart of Manhattan: "Although the cornerstone of the plan is the halving of the fare cost to dally riders, there in a good prospect that the merely financial results will not be disappointing. During the period of construction, since 1913, there has accumulated a deficit on this section of the dual subway of $1,037,276, and no benefits have been realized. That was inevitable. But for the last year of the period there was earned the full preferential to the Brooklyn Rapid Transit, and within $250,371 of the Interest upon the cost of the new construction. If that can be done with the system not opened, It is with reason that the Brooklyn Rapid Transit's, last report saya: 'It will only be.

a short time after complete operation when all of the operator's preferentials will have been earned and the WHALEN BROTHERS BROOKLYNS BIGGEST CREDIT HOUSE HEIGHTS FOR STATION NAME Stop on Clark Street Tunnel Route in Henry Street So Designated. EXPERIMENT WITH TRAINS. South Brooklyn Service Problem for New B'way Subway. There will finally be a Brooklyn Heights subway station when the new routes between this borough and Manhattan are completed. That name has been officially bestowed upon the stop on the Clark' street tunnel route in Henry street, with an entrance from the property of the Hotel St.

George. It will be the most convenient point for access to Wall street, for the next stop to It will be at Wall and William streets, Manhattan. From the time that subway construction was begun on this side of the East River efforts have been made to have a Heights station. On the first subway under Joralemon street It was hoped. to provide stopping place between Borough Hall and the river, but the depth to which the route had to extend the heavy grade precluded the possibility of a station at Hicks street, and it, Was thought that any other point would be too near the Borough Hall stop which could not be moved further east.

80 an entrance to it from Court street was provided. On the Montague street line of the new B. R. T. subway repeated efforta were made to secure a station at Hicks street, between the station fixed between Court and.

Clinton streets and the river. But engineer. In difficulties and the question of cost seemed to rule it out and a final compromise was made to provide ramp from an entrance at Henry street to the Clinton street end of the other station. This station is to have a moving stairway for ascent at the Court street end, the depth having to be excessive as this subway will co under the new Interborough one at Fulton and Willoughby streets. The latter route will have a station at that point, connecting with the present Borough Hall station and with the Montague street station of the B.

R. T. line by A mezzaine. After stopping at the new Borough Hall station the trains going down Fulton and Clark streets will next stop at the Brooklyn Heights station and then go William under the river, Wall The stops in street and at and Fulton streets and after turning, Into Beekman street and passing under the New York Post Office there will be a stop at Broadway and Park place, where this line goes under the new Broadway route, which has its City Hall station al Murray street. The Clark street route at West Broadway and Park place becomes part of the new West Side line running uptown in West Broadway, Varick street and Seventh avenue bast the Pennsylvania Railroad station to join the present route up Broadway north of Times Square, It will lead as directly to the theatrical centre as will the new B.

With the opening of the new BroadWAy subway route from Canal street and Manhattan Bridge to Union Square on Tuesday, to be followed EL little later to Herald Square and Times Square, the question of which trains from South Brooklyn shall run up Broadway and which continue as at present to the Chambers street torminal had to be decided. It can only be found out by experimenter from which of the three to be four- of the Fourth avenue subway the greater number of passengers will desire to go uptown in Manhattan, but at the beginning the Sea Beach trains will go to Union Square.

Flynn Gets New Drawing for Supreme Court Ballot. CLIENTS GOT NO NOTICES. First Case Direct Primary Law. (Special to The Standard Union.) KINGSTON, N. Sept.

1-Supreme Court Justice G. B. B. Hasbrouck, on motion of Lawyer Joseph C. H.

Flynn, of 50 Court street, Brooklyn, to-day granted percraptory writ of mandamus to County Judge Burt Jay Humphrey and George J. S. Dowling, anti-organization candidates, and against Secretary of State Francis M. Hugo, compelling Hugo to hold a new drawing for the order in which the names of candidates for the Supreme Court, Second District, shall appear on the Democratic primary ballot. Lawyer Flynn, appearing for Judge Humphrey and Mr.

Dowling in the first law action under Section 56 of the direct primary law, alleged that his clients had not received notice of the drawing, which was held at Mr. Hugo's office In Albany. The section of the specifically provides that the candidates, themselves must be among receive such notice. Mr. Flynn had everything his own way in the petition and supporting affidavits.

Attorney Merton E. Lewis had to admit, in a letter, that he had no defense to the action. Not one person could be found by him who could swear that Hugo had mailed the notices to Judge Humphrey or Mr. Dowling. This admission constituted Lawyer Flynn's trump card and he won hands down.

There are three Suprme Court vacancles in the Staten Island, Brooklyn and Long Island turisdiction. The Regular Democratic Organization designated Supreme Court Justice William J. Kelly, Richard S. Newcomb and ex-Secretary of State Edward Lazansky, In that order, which was exactly the order in which the names were taken from the Jury wheel at the drawing In Albany. Judge Humphrey got fourth and Mr.

Dowling fifth. result of the issuance of the by Justice Hasbrouck a new drawing will be held at Albany benext Thursday night. Being among the first three on the and especially occupying first place, is important, because many voters simply mark a cross next to each of the first three names, or similarly mark the first name on the list. and none other, through oversight, although warned on the ballot to vote for three. The Direct Primary law under which this action was brought was passed in 1913.
