LAST CHANCE, sAYs THE MAYOR.
This Is the Time for the Manhattan Com
pany to Make Terms with the CITY.

Mayor Gilroy held short conference yester-

aud John NJ. Bowers. counsel for the Rapid
Transit Commission. After their departure
the Mayor said:
II have every hope that the latest propo-
siton OF the Commission will be accepted by
the Manhattan Company. II 1t Is not accepted
/ shall bo greatly disappointed. More than
that. II the elevated railroad company does
not accept tho proposition and perform its
Obligations to the city, shall see to 1t that no
further proposition is offered The Rapid
Transit Commission will never be called to-
gethcr again to consider IN extension OF the
elevated system. and shall use every means
in my power. whlo In public Office. to broak
down the monopoly OF tho present elevated
railroad company. In this know shall have
the aid OF every other city official.
But rs have said, have no fear that the
proposition will not he accepted in one OF its
forms Both consider as ominently fair to
tho Manhattan Company and what the city is to
get by tho acceptance OF eithor is certainly all
1t can hope for in the present circumstances.
It makes no material difrerenceto IN Q whether
the railroad company elects to pay q lump
sum OF $4,000 or to pay per cent. on its
receipts.
The route for extensions md the granting
OF increased facilities for handling traffic l
consider good provisions. l believe Tint the
plan vii! provide fair degree of rapid transit.
1t will not only shorten tho time between up
town and down town points. but it will provide
seat for every passenger. AS n Huremite
who has had to ride on tho elevated roads
ever since they were built, think ] voice the
sentiment OF the great majority OF uptown
people when say that comfortable riding Is
greater desidoratum than extra speed.
No. eiN hnvn haI \
q conclusion as is possible now. and II their
proposition is accepted the $4,000 expended
by the city for their work will not bave been
spent in vain"

doors would be open at the usual hour. but
notice was posted on tho doors OF tho First

There is no question OF the assets OF these
