PLANS FOR running BROADWAY.
AGITATION OF THE QUESTION OF SURFACE RAIL"
WAY.
Judge Hilton, week ago, sent to each prominent
owner of Broadway property two printed Slips VIII
the reouest TO return one of them to bin within ten
DAYS One of the slips states that the undersigned
favors surface railroad upon Broadway properly
constructed and managed each owner 10 DO al
lowed. if he so DESIRE to subscribe for proper
tionate amount of the capital stock according 10
his frontage upon the street." The other contains
refusal to consent 10 any such road. no matter oy
whom controlled" number of the slips have
already been returned, and it is understood that
they are about equally divided III opinions. Judge
Hilton Yesterday sad that the plan nad Deeh
adopted merely to ascertain the opinion OF the pro-
peTty owners.
John Daniel, of John Daniel & Son, 757 Broad
way said This Broadway surface railroad IS
plum for somebody, and have no doubt that the
reason why the subject is kept secret Is because
there are several rivals In the field lknow that
Judge Hilton favors the project. 1t is quite posi-
BILE that there is an orealzed movement TO &c., ges
Legislature. Such a road would advance the value
of Broadway property 20 per cent and the need OF
one is felt every day broadway Is street even
ND to commerce. As soon as the East River Bridge
is completed and the GauzeyOort Market opened
there will be no such Jams and crowds on broadway
as at present. Broadway then will be as clear
downtown as it is now at Eghth-st. Besides this
the stages not equal to the demand for transient
travellers. They are small, Slow noisy and over
crowded. 1t is wel-knOwn that fear OF stage poles
has driven private carriages off Broadway. Inc
stages should be done away with, aud III their place
there should be built a first class road, having
handsome airy cars which should be as pleasant 10
ride in as those of the Elevated railroad"
Dwight ii. Olmstead, President of the West Side
Association said 81 understand that steps are
my opinion such road is impossible, in the present
condition of Broadway. 1t would kill Broadway
TO all other purposes of travel new road is
needed but 1t sho ud be built at The side of Broad
way not upon it. Connected with it. in my opinion;
there should he irstclass rapid transit depressed
road from Fifty-nlntl-st. TO Manhattanvllle under
the control of tue city.

adds that the powers and duties of the Dock Com

IN PARIS.

1t is not generally known that a.
mong the industries Of Parissthe keep
ing of bees is one that is much prac-
tised, and frequently complaints have
been made to the police about the nui-
sance thus occasioned. One inhabi-
tant alone in the 10Th ACCOMPLISHMENT
keeps from eight to nine hundred
hives ; and there are a great number to
be found in the 18th ACCOMPLISHMENT,
near the goods station at Ivry. Va
luable as is the possession of bees to
the owners, there is no question but
that they do a great deal of damage in
various directions. At the Say sugar
refinery, for instance, it is calculated
that the damage amounts to Is, 0OOf.
a year; for a whole jarful of syrup
will be completely emptied in less
than a couple OF hours, and two or
three bushels of bees are taken or des-
troyed within the day. The workmen,
who are obliged to follow their occu-
patton bare to the waist, suffer terribly
from these little pests, and frequently
