"due think the passing OF telegraph wires over
the iron elevated railway structures"
While this argument in favor of putting the wires
underground IN New-York was being uttered Senator

this reform. For six months Charles f. LOew Ihco
dore Moss and Jacob Hess have been examining plans
for electrical subways under act of the Leg
which directed the appointment of certain Conms-
.oners to supervise the putting of the telegraph wires
underground They have not adopted any plans.
Meanwhile the telegraph companies are making no
haste TO obey the law Senator Cullen III his bill wOdld

substitute Mayor Grace. Recorder Smyth and Presi-
dent Mooney of the Board of Aldermen as the Board
