A RAILROAD IN BROADWAY.

DISCUSSION BEFORE THE ALDERMEN.
ADVOCATES OF THE VARIOUS SCHEMES PRESENTING
THEIR CIAIMs-ARGUMENTs OF THE OPPONENTS
OF THE ROAD.
The Aldermen's Committee on Railroads
yesterday listened representatives OF the various
schemes for building surface railroad in broadway,
and also TO opposed to granting such franchise
The committee is composed of Aldermen Robert Hall.
Jacobus and Roberts, and besides these many other
members of the Board were present Among others who
attended were George H. Nehrbas OF the Central Tax
payers Association James W. Foshay, president OF the
Seventh Avenue Railroad Company John H. Strahan,
Simeon L. Church. George H. Moore Robert McCsferty,
John b. Haskin Robert B. Mooney, George W. Mclean,
Theodore E. Tomlinson, Cornelius Flynn and Edwar j.
Creamer.
George II. Nehrbas. in behalf OF the Taxpayers
Association opposed Broadway railroad. The Giml-
mutton OF business on that street was owing to the
general movement uptown His reasons for opposing
the road were that the Common Council had no author
ity either TO grant the franchise TO road or to
make any limitations and that the road was unneces
sary and uncaed for by those most interested.
John e. Haskn claimed that If a road were built it
shonld be done in the interest of the city, and be
managed as the Croton Aqueduct, tho parks, any
other public Improvement. This. he claimed the city
had legal right to do Mr.. Haskin spoke IN favor Of
his propositions TO give 81 000O 900 and per cent, or
25 per cent profits all over 10 per cent Of
net profits the city for the franchise. lie said his
offer was made in good faith and in opposition TO the
cormorants known as corporations One objection to
selling the franchise, he said the fact that nobody
could stand In competition to capitalists like vanderbilt
John ii. Strahan representing the Seventh Avenue
Railroad Company said that his company did not seek
the grant, but was ask for 1t out of justice TO
its STOCK khoders He claimed that the franchise should
be given to the Seventh Avenue Company because 1t
would carry passengers from the Battery to the Park
| for cents, while any other company could not 20
above Uuion-square on Broadway, which would make
fine payment Of two fares necessary If the seventh
| Avenue Company did rot obtain the franchise.
Charles b. shaw OF the FOrtysccOnd street, Manhat-
tanyie and ST. Nicholas Avenue Railroad thought that
his company could perb0ps, build the proposed Broad
way road under existing laws. without any grant from
! the Common Council and he had grave doubts whether
the franchise could be 10 any other company
The committee will meet again on Thursday next
