was the only who appeared In opposition to the
measure His main argument was to the effect that
the passage OF the bill would mean a loss Of at
least So 900 TO the city. This would be brought
about by the relief accorded in the bill 10 the con-
tractor by not compelling him to pay anything into
the Sinking Fund for the first five years. Another
ground Of opposition that the bill permitted a
business corporation 10 operate railroad In the
State, which in violation of the law. The bill
further crippled the city to its ownership When
the lease expired the city would own hole In the
ground and the contractors would own the ventlat-
ing plant. the overhead wires and the power-house
Mr. Murray said he appeared for some Of the largest
estates along the Rapid Transit route II the bill
passed, 1t should be amended so that the prop
erty rights would br protected.
A. B. Boardman. OF New-YOrk. counsel for the
Rapid Transit Commission. asked the committee for
a favorable report the bill. The amendments
proposed to the existing law, he said. were minor
ones and were suggested by The Rapid Transit COM
mission in order 10 perfect the measure so hat the
intent of the original law might be carried out.
Alexander Il. Orr. president of the Commission
also argued IN favor of the bill. AS the Dill was
suggested by the Commission, he said IL shouId
pass. for the Commission was competent 10 look
after the interests OF the people.

that the statement Is not true. While the police Of
Albany up to 1894 could be justly accused Of wrong
