Another reason which may be urged against the
proposition which has received lie commissions

N placing the cable IN Broadway, the city stipu-
lated that whenever any other company al

Broadway this minimum yearly payment by the
broadway syndicate should cease. The OF

The Mayor added that no plan should receive
