The Rxeoutlve Committee of the Republican County Committee met last night In the Johnston Building to take action on Senator Elsburg's Municipal Court bill. The com mittee went on record as opposing the pro posed1 legislation, and appointed a committee of two, of which Jacob Brenner Is one, to look after Brooklyn's Interests. The object of the bill Is to legislate out of office the present Municipal Court Judges and create new districts.

Brooklyn, under the bill, will be divided Into five districts. The organisation believes that It should have at least seven. Chairman Brenner did not outline what policy he would pursue In connection with the measure. Following the Executive Committee meet ing was a meeting of the County Committee, at whichMr. Brenner reported the dates se lected for the Congressional and Assembly District Conventions.

It had" been decided, he said, to hold the former on April 4, and the latter on April 6. Quarantine Commissioner Schroeder said that It would be impossible to get a hall in his district for tho holding of a convention on April 4, "because it was Easter Monday and he asked permission to holdT it on the Saturday night pre ceding. Permission was granted. Harry Jaqulllard said that he favored tne holding of the Congressional Conventions on Tuesday, April 6, instead of April 4. and asked that the change be adopted.

There was no objection. Chairman Fawcett will preside at the first convention held, which will be In Mr. district. Ex-Register John K. Neal offered a suggestion for an amendment to the election law, providing for the appointment of an Inspector who falls to appear on Election Day.

The amendment gives the appointing power to his associate. This amendment will be sent to Albany. Mr. Neal also offered a proposed amendment to the Primary Law, giving a voter living in a district sixty days permission to vote. Mr.

Wingate, of the First District, offered" resolutions which were adopted, endorsing the bill Introduced into Congress by Mr. Smith, of Michigan, to Increase the pay of letter carriers and suggesting that the pay of Post Office clerks be also Increased. STOPPED TO QUENCH THIRST. 'Tis Said a Gang Helped Hesse to So So, and Then Gave Him Knockout Drops. Gustave Hesse, of 192 Pearl street, was drugged and robbed this morning.

He had been working up to a late hour and started for his home. On the way thereto he stopped in a saloon to get a drink. He looked prosperous. A line of hangers on bobbed up In the bar-room and joined in drinking with him. Becoming more sociable, they began to Introduce themselves to him.

There was a Jones, a Robinson, a Smith, and several others bearing good old staple family names. While Hesse's back was turned, one of the men dropped a little chloral Into his beer. He became partly unconscious. Three men led him out. At Wiiloughby and Pearl streets one took his gold watch and chain.

Hesse was then laid down on the side walk. Patrolman Donegan, who saw the quartet, ran to the corner. One of the trio threw away the Jewelry. The officer grabbed the man, but the other two es caped. The prisoner eaid he was Dick Murphy.

He was held to-day at the Adams Street Court. Hesse said he was sure he was drugged as he drank three beers only and could stand twenty easily. His watch and chain were recovered and Identified by him. Auction Sales To-day. By James L.

M. O08TA BICA. By nil to ttw Orleans, and thence Chief Engineer Nichols Declares the Best Plan to be the Most Desirable. MIGHT IN TIME ENTER JERSEY. Faults of the Martin and Subway Plans Lease for Route Connecting Bridges Should Not Prohibit Changes Demands of New Bridge.

Brooklyn trolley cars may run across Manhattan Island to connect this borough with the ferries and transportation facilities of the Hudson River. This is a plan which was officially recommended to Bridge Commissioner Best this morning by Chief Engineer Nichols, of the Bridge Department. The report will be presented to ttf Committee on Flans of the Rnpid Transit Commission, which will hold a meeting to-morrow afternoon. The novel proposition of running Brooklyn trolley cars to the Hudson River, where they might, in time, be carried under the river into Jersey, is set by Mr. Nichols in the following words: "There should, however, be provided as speedily as possible some connections by which ears from Brooklyn could run further Into Manhattan, and certainly aeriss town directly in line with all the three great bridges." In response to the request of Comptroller Grout for facts and figures on the proposed plan to connect the bridges by means of an elevated, Mr.

Nichols says: "The Martin plan will cost ja.000,000 and require about a year to carry out. The Parsons plan to connect by a four-track subway, J5.5O0.0O0, and four years' time. The Best-Westneracher-Nlchols plan will cost J12.5O0.O00 and relief can be given In six months, while the elevated can be In operation In a year." The report, is. In part, as follows: There are three tangible propositions for connecting the East River bridges. Nos.

1 and 2, and all provide in some way for future connection with Bridge No. 3. A. The so-called Martin plan for an elevated railway through Centre, Grand, Essex and Delaneey streets. B.

The plan of the Committee' on Scope and Plans of the Rapid Transit Commission for a four track subwav through Centre and Delaneey streets. C. Your plan for an elevated railway through and over private propertv to Delaneey street, extended to Mulberry, and thence over Delaneey and Inducing the construction of a station office tiullding on private property as an extension of the present Brooklyn Bridge station. Neither the so-called Martin, nor the subway plans, provide for a considerable increase in the Brooklyn Bridge terminal station, and to this extent both of these plans, will, in my opinion, fail to provide material relief for the present congestion at this station, or provision either now or ever for an adequate City Hall station for all the bridges. Such a station your plan does provide and this Is so essential a feature of the plan that it cannot be easily separated from the railway of which it forms an Integral part.

The cost of the Martin plan may be taken JS.000.000. This plan could be executed within twelve months after the legal rights are sscured. The cost of the subway plan may be taken 15.600.000. This plan would require about our years from the present time for construction. The cost of your plan would be J12.5O0.O0O.

The earning capacity of the station building for public office purposes is taken at IW6.000. which amount is 4 1-2 per cent on J9.000.000. The ret cost of the bridge connecting rnllway. on which an operating company should pay rental is therefore ll.500.00O. This plan will provide relief from the congestion at the Manhattan terminal of the Brooklyn Bridge within six months and the connecting railway can be operated before the station Is completed and within twelve months from the time when the real estate Is secured.

The Martin plan has every objection which pertains to an elevated railway In the public streets and the stations could not. in my judgment, be made sufficiently commodious and convenient without greater encroachment on private property than has been assumed. The subway plan assumes the construction of a four-track subway built presumably within the effective limits of the public streets, two for elevated trains and two for trolley cars. Now the Williamsburgh Bridge is to have six effective tracks; the Brooklyn Bridge has four tracks; and it has been proposed to reconstruct it with six tracks, while the Manhattan Bridge is to have eight railway tracks. I submit that it Is simply absurd to expect four tracks on any structure, and least of all In the confines of a eubway.

which minimizes the possibilities of Intertrack exchange, to satisfy the reasonable requirements for a railway destined in the near future to connect all of these bridges. believe that two such subway of four tracks each will be all too small for this service. The Martin plan provides tor four tracks from the Brooklyn Bridge to Canal street, end two tracks for the remainder of the distance. There certainly should be four tracks on the Delaneey street elevated railway, rnd your plan provides for tracks over the whole line. The subway plan will require a grade from the Brooklyn Bridge under Park row, which, while practicable for trolley cars, would be dangerous for elevated railway trains.

This plan requires that two of the tracks on the Wllliamsburgh Bridge now designated for trolley service shall be used for elevated railway trains, and that the present elevated railway tracks shall be used for local service only. This I submit is an unwise disposition of the tracks on that There are about twelve surface trolley llnw now reaching the Brootatanernrlnus of the Wllliamsburgh Bridge, and only one elevated railway line. To apportion the six tracks bo that four shall be used for elevated railways and two only for trolley lines will be a distribution manifestly disproportionate to the existing conditions, and fraught with dissatisfaction, disorder and disgust tor the pear future. Moreover, the clearance at the middle of the bridge does not permit the safe operation of elevated and trolley cars in mi; npaue liruuucu lur ine narrow trolley oars alono. A subway built under the Rapid Transit act between orifices 1 and 2 or frnm th City Hall to the Wllliamsburgh Bridge would naturally fall Into the hands of those prepared to build and operate It conveniently to themselves, and they might not be able to give adequate accommodation to inuon.jii iroiiey cars, ana mignt not.

Indeed, care to do so. There should he nrovlded as sneeHitv au possible some connections by which cars from Brooklyn enuld run further into Manhattan, and certainly across town directly In line with all the three great bridges. Your plans for the future anticipate the construction of nn elevated crosstown line from the Manhattan Bridge, through Canal street, to pass over and transfer to all the tip-town lines, whether elevated or subway, but this, line cannot le made effective for several years. The trollev ears from itmr.ir. lyn should be able to run across town over tne ttrooKiyn ana the Wllliamsburgh snages.

preieraniy mrougn a trolley sub wav. which would form a connecting rati. way for the trolley lines on the bridges with a doxen or more stations In Munhnrtan for discharging and collecting Brooklyn passengers. The Centre street station projected on your plan would furnish one of the larger of these stations, and the vexatious trolley terminal of the Brooklyn Bridge might well be transferred to the' basement of this building for the purpose of removing the present trolley terminal at this point and preparing the way for such a trolley subway loop In To my mind the plan submitted by vou to the Board of Estimate and Apportionment on the nineteenth ultimo. Is' the most desirable of the plans proposed for con necting the three bridges.

It lends itself most easily to adaptation to all the condi tions ol tne near ana long tuture; it benefits the district traversed Instead of Iniur- ing It as the Martin plan might; it is better than the subway plan, because It permits adequate accommodation for the elevated railway trains, and leaves the trolley service to be provided for In a more satisfactory manner than is possible In the subway pro-no art: it mat be built In a manner more free from hindrances and limitations as to the future tnan tne suoway; its net cost is not much greater tnan tnat ot tne jiiartin plan, and It can be built on one-third the time, and at much less cost than the subway plan: it furnishes an adequate office building capable of being made an ornament to the locality seiectea, wnicn may De orougnt within reasonable financial reach, and It permits the almost Immediate relief of the congestion an tne Brooklyn image terminal, STREET. March 9 Stocks were generally higher partly owing to a rise in Ixipdon, where covering was pretty general, largely for Glasgow account. Russian securities there were unchanged and Japanese 1-4 lower. Money In London was plentiful and discounts were easy. No confirmation of the reported destruction cr capture of the Russian Vladivostok squadron by the Japanese.

Brooklyn Rapid Transit was 7-8 higher, owing to a report that Mr. Belmont and his friends have secured control of the Brooklyn Coney Island road. This had a good deal of weight because it is believed that Mr. Belmont Is a large holder of Brooklyn Rapid Transit stock, so that his acquisition of the Brooklyn Coney Island road is likely, it Is argued, to inuro to the advantage of the B. R.

T. The question is asked whether the persistent selling of Corn Products may not be with a view of securing control. Whatever the cause the suck Is being steadily sold. Pennsylvania advanced only 1-1 on the early business the price rallying but feebly owing to the report that the company will issue new bonds to the amount of J30.O0O.OXi. Leading bear interests have directed a good deal of thelr attention of late to Pennsylvania, owing to its heavy capitalization, which, they contend, makes It more vulnerable to attack than any other stock on the list, save U.

S. Steel. The report of the impending Pennsylvania Railroad Company's bond issue was promptly denied by officials here and in Philadelphia, bears continued to sell it, saving that the last bond Issue was denied in the same way up to the last minute. This one incident alone has led to a noticeable increase In the short interest. New York Central gross earnings, too, for February show a decrease of J121.071.

It is proposed to cut down the Lake Iron ore output this year fully 40 per cent-, which would reduce the total production some 15,000.000 tons. The usual spring reduction of 50 cents a ton In wholesale anthracite coal prices will be issued, it is stated, within a few days. The Presidents of the coal roads at their meeting yesterday, however, did not. It appears, discuss the matter. Serious floods, meantime, are reported in the anthracite regions.

The companies, however, have been charging very high prices all winter, making the people smart for the great coal strike, for which, of course, they were in no way to blame. There was a good borrowing demand, especially for Pennsylvania, St. Paul, Union Pacific. B. Atchison.

Canadian Pacific. New York Central and Erie first preferred. The borrowing demand for Pennsylvania was especially brisk. A Chicago despatch asserts that the Corn Products Company has now entered on Its busiest season and officials say its gross sales thus far are far In excess of a year ago, with all the available plant in operation. It is added that the prospects are good for heavy sales by the company during the next three months.

There was good selling of Amalgamated Copper. Mclntyre Marshall sold 5,090 shares of the stock; Dewitt 4.000, and W. Schoeftel. 1,000. The buying was considered of a pretty good character, however.

The Consolidated Tobacco Company earnings for the year shows an Increase of 13.066,664 in net earnings and a surplus over Interest charges of JIO.017,324. an Increase of J3.102.118. Cotton advanced 40 to 50 points. The foreign news was rather better than expected this morning. Reports of the destruction of the Russian Vladivostok squad ron had no effect, for Russian and Japanese bonds were 1-4 per cent, higher.

American stock In London were Irregular, but the general feeling there was more cheerful than for several weeks past, owing to a cessation of the Continental liquidation. British Consols advanced 1-8. These advices and official denials that the Pennsylvania road is to issue new bonds were the principal bullish factors this morning. A London despatch said: "Yesterday's Im provement In the securities markets is main tained for the most part tolay by continued short covering, principally for Glasgow account, and caused a rally of a point In Grand Trunk Issues. South American mining stocks steady without quotable change.

American railway shares show Irregularity, but are apathetic. Monty in plentiful supply and discounts are easy a condition which Is likely to be continued according to popular theories in financial circles." New York Central gross earnings for Feb ruary show a decrease of J421.071. From July 1 the gross earnings show an Increase of Jl.024.871. No statrmfnt of net earnings from July 1 to March 1 Is at hand, but according to the last statement net earnings for the period show a very considerable decrease. The demand to cover relaxed later on r.n1 the market became dull and Irregular.

Bears continued to circulate reports of an impending bond issue by Pennsylvania and these ru mors had more or less effect. The trading was mainly local and professional in char-acter. A Iondon despatch said: "Some mediation rumors from Continental sources have had some favorable influence. Best of strength, however, seems to have come from covering of unwieUly bear accounts. Private advices to responsible banklny houses from Paris contain warnings that surface Indications there are better Chan the facts and are apt to be misleading." It Is said that shipments of gold to Paris on account of Panama Canal payments are highly Improbable.

The earnings of 72 roads for January an average net decrease of 23. 93 per cent The "banks have lost to the Sub-Treas ury since last Friday J2.002.00O. The American Ice Company stockholders elected a compromise iboard of directors. It Is still believed that the soft coal labor trouble will be settled peacefully. Tho earnings of 39 roads for the fourth week of February show an average gross In crease of 8.78 per cent.

BAR SILVER. The New York bar silver quotation to-day is 57 per ounce. COTTON, The market for cotton was active and strong at an advance of 40 to 49 points. March sold up to 16 cents. May 16.35, July 16.30 and August 15.68.

On the rise there was considerable profit taking by Wall street and leading local interests, but the offerings weer well taken by shorts and 'ouil leaders and prices reacted only 8 to 12 points. The Improvement was due to strong cables, continued small receipts, covering by frightened shorts, an improved spot demand In Liverpool, where the sales were 12,000 bales, reports or drought from the Southwest and an Indisposition to Bell for short account. The principal bullish factor Is the continued small crop movefnent. Liverpool advanced 12 points on the spot; futures opened 3 to 5 points lower, but recovered tho loss and advanced 13 to 14. The port receiupts were estimated at 12,000 bales against 15,403 last week and 23,478 last year.

WHEAT, CORN AND OATS. Wheat advanced a fraction at first owing to bullish crop reports from the southwest, where the weather continues dry: outside buying and covering of shorts. May sold at 94 l-2c. here and 92 8 -8c. at Chicago, on the rise, however, bears became aggressive Havana To.
