1t comes from pretty good authority tha' 'he
I1avemevers made the boast that the new
bridge would not get into Brooklyn without
having them upward Of 81 100000. Since then
they have come down from that attitude ana
made a definite offer to the city. Exactly what
.h,. Npura Is could not be learned yesterday
1t lies somewhere between $oOO,ooo and Sl'ooo'
OOO One thing that is fairly definite Is that
the Trust wants Just about twice what the
property is actually worth
That part of the strip which lies above water
has lust been assessed by the Brooklyn asses
sors at 500, 900. This figure is supposed 10 pe
20 per cent of the real value. which must there-
fore be S132. $50. according to the judgment OF
the assessors AS this block Is especially con-
yeniently located for just the use that Is now
made Of it by the Sugar Trust, the Bridge Com
missioners are disposed to consider SlJO'ooo as
q fair valuation of the block. The strip that
lies under the water they put at about as hluch

1t Is generally agreed that the waterfront iand
is worth about the same on the other side OF the
water-line This submerged part OF the strip lies
between two wharves, and IS used for moorlns
vessels. -,
AS the bridge is to be 132 feet wide. it will be
necessary to buy the whole strip OF land. Inc
Commissioners cannot escape buying the lana,

Trust land, and let the latter sue for damages.
But as the Commission must have some or the

Two courses can be pursued by the Commits
sion-to have the land condemned or TO buy as
cheaply as the Trust can be induced to sell. The
former course would probably result In interim
nable litigation, the problem before the Com
mission is to determine how cheaply 1t can get
out Of 1t II it buys.
The new valuations Of Brooklyn property made

wear upon the properties held by the American
Sugar Refining Company and the Brooklyn
Wharf and Warehouse Company. which to-
cether own nearly the whole Of the Brooklyn
Waterfront are of interest in this connection.

gagged in these negotiations. They follow:
