city, feel no hesitation in thus laying before you
and your readers complaint which feel Justified
in making. lam in the habit OF travelling to and
from my place OF business on the Broadway cars,
morning and evening. 1t is for the interest OF the
company owning these cars aud for the citizens

be made.-
believe that all that can be done to accomplish
this is adopted by the company; but the drivers
have great deal to contend against, and have 10

ORANGES from those drivers Of teams and express
carts who rurposeiy delay them.
We're this the case only now and then would
make no complaint, though might be justified in
30 doing; hut it Is repeatedly done. THIS evening
such a Migrant insult was offered by one OF We g.
cott's express wagons, between Thirty-third and
Thirty-ourth streets to the car was on that de-
termned it should not pass unnotlced. There
were two men on the wagon who seemed bent
upon keeping IN the way OF the car ana insulting
number of times and calls were made, they only
looked round, laughed and persevered In their
abomnable insults. This was witnessed by several
both on and or the car and even by that helpless,
Indifferent set OF giants who are in their apathy
and an Imposition on the public under
the names Of Westcotts men l should
have been glad to have exposed them IN
your columns for the public publ contempt sunss si
the much-abused car drivers and conductors, but
ON behalf OF those people who have to adopt q
comparatively slow method OF journeying up and
and down town until they are blessed with the
much-needcd ''rapid transit" Such men as the
drivers Of the WestcOtt wagon, to which have
made reference. should be voted public nuisance,
and trust you will bring about, through your
voice and influence some method which snail put

would thus insult their fellow citizens. IL is not
