Before tho Appellate Division of the Supreme
Court can decide whether the city must build
the underground railroad recommended by the
Board OF Rapid Transit Railroad Commission
ors it must determine what margin, above tho
constitutional limit. tho city must have for in
curing debt. 1t would be interesting at this
particular time. were such q thing possible, to
know just what the opinions Of tho Justices who
arc TO decide tho main question are.
Many OF those who, by their votes, put these
Justices on the bench believe, as has already
been shown in THE SUN, that the margin
above the constitutional limit would DO too
small, could the railroad BIO built for the
amount estimated by tho engineers Of the
Rapid Transit Commission. Hardly any, Of
course, believe that 1t could. Other persons be-
Neve that, no matter IL the road could be built
for onc-quarter OF the lowest estimate, the city
should not undertake tho work. because, when
the public works now begun, or to be begun in
the near future, and for which the city Is now
liable, are paid for, the debt Of the city will
have reached tho constitutional limit. or will be
90 near 1t that hardly enough margin will DO
left to build y respectable schoolhonse.
There arc still others, and there are very
many OF TINS CLASS, VINO are wondering, no
matter what the judicial fiat may be, how tho
city Is going to pay for an underground rail
road and for works already or soon to be begun,
which, as shown in yesterdays SUN, will prao-
ideally wipe out the city's debt.incurring CO.
pacity, and still pay for many other public
works, authorized by the Legislature and al
ready undertaken, and of which 1t is believed tho
general public know little. or these works, or
improvements, there are nearly 100 in progress.
Completed, each one will cost anywhere from a
few hundred dollars to a few millions. The
precise nature of some of these works and es-
timated cost Of completing them were brought
out in the testimony taken before the special
commission which approved the report Of the
Rapid Transit Commissioners On account OF
the difficulty in obtaining accurate information
relative to the nature and cost of the works,
only the most important and best known OF
them were exaini. led. Hero are some of them:
