Sir: Only one branch Of the Aldermanlc report
quoted this morning needs comment. The cost OF
the East River tunnel IS estimated by better authorities
than the Committee on Docks at 100000 instead
Of s15 ooo 900 the amount "paid up" and expended
for surveys etc., is between $4,000 and $4,000, In
stead OF less than 81 oOo' the present stockholders
arc not Irresponsible" but quite able to build the
tunnel and tho franchise cannot DO transferred with
out being forfeited. These errors were corrected al
the hearing" but Of course, too late, H. as stated ID
the Board the report was already in type.
1t is quite true that the capital of the company
was temporarily fixed at 100000 or only double
what the law required, but, as the event proves !"
would have been folly to pay an organization tax
of many thousands of dollsrs on charter Dependent
for its validity upon the action OF the Board Oh
Aldermen. If their consent IS ever granted, INC
capital be increased by simple vote OF tne
stockholders And the company is by no means
hopeless of consent It took three months argument
