The 'Ttapld Transit Commission hue finally and definitely declined to oonelder elemtotl loonnaotlon. therefore, cannot urge too strongly tha adoption of pinna for a aubwuy connection. When tha Mayor was questioned on this atatamant, ho replied: "That port of tha meaeaga must not be 'taken to mean that I am opposed to an elevated loop. It waa written prior to the last I meeting of the Rapid Transit Commission.

fThraa or waa it four members had stated that they would never, never, never vote (for an elevated structure In Manhattan, and 'on tha face of this the proposition hod every Wemblanoa of death- I do not know whether or not these gentlemen have changed their minds." tha Rapid Transit Commissioners did change their minds and the loop waa adopted would you. as Mayor, veto the act?" i am not an advocate of a permanent ele- vatad eonnaotton," said tha Mayor, diplomatically. "Were it a qeustlon where the I mama amount of money and tlraa wore In-volved In the building operating of an loop, and a subway loop, I should certainly favor tha subway proposition. But my mind Is open, and I want something dona, and done promptly. If an loop presents tha qulckets means of relief, I shall support It as a temporary preposition.

1 'To an extent, of couree, am not an advocate of elevated struoturea, tout there are many conditions to ba considered. For Instance, I would not advocate an 1 on Broadway, would But on the other hand, there may too presented conditions which would call for a permanent 1 struoture. There was, for Instance, a very good plan an loop advocated two years ago. This was to put the 'L through private -property between the bridges. That plan avoided the present dissension as to the overshadowing of the publlo thoroughfare.

6uch a plan I believed In. Mr. Grout, who iwfts Comptroller, threw it down on the ground of expense, tout I do not think the expense was unreasonable or unjustifiable. There is one plan I am opposed to, exoept as a last desperate resort, and that Is the to run an overhead loop through 'Centre street. There are many other unim-Iportant thoroughfares through which such struoture might be built, it seems to me." The message discusses the transportation problem, as follows: The great facilities for transportation offered by the Wlillamsburgh Bridge oannot he fully used until some such connection Is firovlded.

Frederick Koffre, Berthold Hamm and Paul have been operated by the Brooklyn Rapid I 1 A of th brldgemen employed on the Blackwell' Island Bridge held up that A work for four months, froth January to May, 1906. A etrlko clause In the oontract rendered tha Commlasloner of Bridge powerless to avert this strike.

The ntapufacture of the tel for the bridge went on steadily In the contracting company's shopa during thl period however. At the present time, 65,000 ton of the 50,000 ton of ateel called for In the contract has been manufactured. The Blackwells Island span of th bridge ha been of erection Is now going at both the Manhattan and Queens' end. nd uhstantlal Increase ha been made In the working force. The Bridge Commissioner has concluded plans for the Queens terminal and has begun active work on plans for the Manhattan terminal I expect to see this bridge In operation during the first six months of 1908 Ifokret to find that the legislation pro-vldlng for the depression of the tracks of the New York Central Railroad on Eleventh avenue seems to be misunderstood.

There Is no question but that the operation of this road at grade Is a constantly Increasing mehaoe to life and limb In this seotlon of the tT S'IS Sax? "i however, gave the Rapid Transit Commission and the railroad corpor-atlon a year In which to agree on plane. for this Improvement. The Rapid Transit Ctom-, mission has completed Its plans and Sub-mltted them to the railroad, which now has under consideration. In tha event of 'a failure to agree, the city la directed by the term of the Saxe hill to accomplish the work by the condemnation proceedings The time alloted does not expire until March The problem of providing the constantly Increasing population of the city with safe comfortable, and at the same time rapid means of transportation, between the business and residential centres of the various boroughs, Is one. to which I have given a reat dead of time end study.

Relief obviously Ilea In Increasing sub-ways ana bridges, and a more extensive and better arranged syetem of terminals. The nglneers toave struggled with this dif- durlr. ti'e pa year with ft moat gratifying results. New subway routes have been laid out and bids will ba adver-tised for this month. In this connection I deJ that the city Is now acting and will continue to act In the beat of faith out the provisions of the Elshurg bill.

Any suggestion that these terms wifi make the contracts for the new subways unattractive to bidders la premature and 111-advlaed. In conjunction with my colleagues of the Rapid Transit Commission, I shall do my best, to, carry out to tha letter the terms of this legislation. Relief from new subways Is necessarily a long way off, relief from the Blackwell's Island and Manhattan Bridges Is happily closer. During the Interim ltf thy Intention to do everything possible to relieve the present arduous conditions, and steps In that direction have already been Initiated by me The connection of the tubes under the East River will be a great factor in this work, making the actual service of this tunnel a matter of a comparatively short tlma The acquisition of the Staats-Zeltung block and the contiguous prop-eni title to which waa taken on Deeem-bw 94, for a new terminal station for the Brooklyn Bridge, will. I believe, speedily relieve the present congested conditions.

It- la my Intention to complete this Improvement at the earliest possible data Plana for the operation of thla terminal are well advanced In the meantime, everything posalble baa been done to increase the carrying capacity of both bridges. The capacity of the Brooklyn Bridge local trains ha been Increased 9,000 passengers or 25 per cent, per hour during the rush hours, a result attained by adding an extra car to each train, by Improvements In operation, and by the addition of stairways at Bridge looal train consisting of five car, are now being successfully op- crated daring rueh hours for the first time In th history of tho bridge During .1 Mr. Wynkoop Is entitled to great credit for having worked up the system, and persisting In getting it before the public. When Mr. Cruexbaur became consulting engineer he had a plan for establlehing a sub-surface construction bureau.
