sts. is finished.
MAGNITUDE OF THE WORK.
Some idea Of the magnitude 90 the work un-
dertaken NAV Lc gathered from the following
facts; In each block II the road there are
eeyorty-two tons Of iron AMI steel put into
place this quantity being made UP OF OH
different pieces: ! 1870 lncaI feet 81 duct laid:
:;4S cubic yards Of excavation; lVn cubic fc't 81
concrete laid and 80 square yards ~ paving
done. The work involves inc employment ~
ironworkers concretcrs. duCt-aycrs. caulkers'
Plumbers. p9c-in overs PAYERS and blacksmiths'
The work on the line running through Fhty-
ninth-st. is not So far advanced, nut. on tho
other hand this work is not OF great magni-
tudn The work about he circle Is conpetei.
From Eighth-av to Seventh-aVe one track ~
done and the other torn up. No work has been
done from SeVenth-Gye. To Sixth-ave. From F!fth-
ave to Sxth-aye.. the north track rs finished. The
north track from Fifth-ave TO Madison-ave Is
ready for paving. but the work IL slow mere
owing TO the narroWDesS OF the street and the
Iroximity OF tho big hotels From Madison
ave. nearly 10 Third-ave. the north track is
finished. but elsewhere on the line no work has
been begun. II Is thought that II VIII he Octo-
Der - before the F.fty-ninth-st. line liz ready
for travel.
AMsTEEDAM-AvE. TROUBLES.
Streetcar traffic is now suspended on Amstcr-
dam-ave and the tracks from Seventysecond-
81 10 Ninety -ninth-st. are torn VI. The iron
work IS partly in place In this stretch OF the
avenue and the work here is expected Il be
finished in about n fortnight more Then the
task Will be prosecuted northward 10 One hun
drCG-and- twenty and II is expected that
the road will be ready 10 resume operations about
November !. Meanwhile no cars run over 1t.
The immediate future condition Of Amsterdam-
ave IS al present a matter Of doubt, owing 10
tho contention between the Third Avenue Kali
road Company and Commissioner Collie The
Commissioner has refused the company consent
10 tear up It's tracks. which run outside me
tracks Of the Metropolitan Traction Company.
and the company has applied for n mandainus
compelling the Commissioner 10 grant TINS per-
mission.
Twcnty-third-st is also la n condition Of per-
,urbation west from Sixth-ave. In Ninth-ave.
East Of Sixth-avc provisions were made for the
underground electric system some years ago. so
mai this portion Of Twenty-third ST. viii not
hs,c to he opened The work in Twenty third
g; has been confined far 10 the north track.
but on account OF the heavy traffic there ana the
proximity OF the railroad ferries the nuisance
has been great From Sixth-ave to SeVenth-avc
the north track Is practically completed, hut inc
ironwork is not yet laid from Seventh-ave. To
NInth-ayc II viii probably hr November be-
roro the system IL in working order In Twenty
third-gt
