Gen. Coils has refused to give . permit TO
tho Forty-second Street. ManhnttnnvtIle, and
St Nicholas avenue surface road to open the
pavement on Amsterdam avenue in order to
change the motive power from horses to cleo
tricity. Permission TO change the motive
power has already been granted TO the Metro
poltan Street Railway Company, which also
operates two tracks or that thoroughtare. In
his letter TO Albert J. Elias. President Of the
other road. Gen Collts said that while he had
the highest regard for the legal opinion OF
Acting Corporation Counsel Connolly. who holds
that the Commissioners Of Public Works can
not compel the removal Of two of the four tracks
in Amsterdam avenue, yet he prefers not 10
act until a court OF compsrens jurisdiction has
passed on the matter.
My engineer informs me-" continues Gen.
Coils. that the construction Of four tracks on
this avenue with underground conGllts would
not 3n4y inlpern existing city property, put
would render ready Access TO our many under
risky and expensive. There are upon this street
already six water mains. each four feet in
diameter. similar TO those l Am now laying in
Fifth avenue. upon which the entire population
Of the city depends for the safe conduct u a sui
hcient, water supply. In addition there are
two electric subway condutts. one twenty-inch
and one twelve-tnch water main, SIX gas
mains. eight and ten inches in diameter, one
thirty inch gas main. and one twenty inch gas
I'm fact, this avenue is the great artery

health and comfort OF the citizens. and It
should be protected by my department when
ever threatened.
Perhaps IL il not within, y provinces as
Commissioner OF Public Works 20 express any
opinion as 10 the menace TO life and property
which would result from the rapid moytng Of
four railway trains in quick succession upon a
single street. yet I think that 10 IL such An
alarming condition a. would affect the judicial
mind II I could show. al | am prepared TO DO,
that a common use Of a single track by sepa-
rate companies offers no mechanical or cleo
trtcal obstacle and Is perfectly feasible.
II appreciate your offer 70 accept my ssug-
gestion for the use Of tracks in common with the
Metropolitan street Railway Company, but II
I gave you such permission, I have 40 pONer TO
enforce its recognition by the Metropolitan
Company. Only a court OF Justice can do that.
When so much is being done to provide

IL seems like a step backward to unnecessarily

In conclusion Cen Coils advised Mr.. Elias
TO apply for a mandamus to compel the granting

WASHINGTON. Sept. 1l-Civil Engineer A. G.
Menocal, L. :. N. has requested the Navy De-
partment to appoint a court OF inquiry to inves-
tigate his conduct IN supervising the repairs to
the dry dock at the Brooklyn Navy Yard. The
request is the result OF the recent action Of the
department in relieving Mr.. Menocal from this
duty and placing 1t under Naval Constructor
Bowles.
Mr.. Menocal has been stationed at the Brook.
lyn yard for more than two years. His princi-
pal duty has been in connection with the naval
dry docks there. When dock No. 3 was badly
damaged by a cavern that caused leaks to
develop Mr.. Menocal was directed to take
charge OF the work Of repairing it. The work
has not progressed very rapidly. and last week
Constructor Bowles was summoned from Brook.
Ign for a conference with Acting Secretary
Roosevelt He explained the situation and.
with the approval OF Secretary Long. Mr.. Roose-

to assume charge in place OF Mr.. Memo

conduct operations without reference to the
regular methods OF official decentralization.

East Twenty-second street stations, which

to keep order between Thirteenth street and
Tventy-third street. Several biuecoats from
the Mercer street station were also on hand. y
number of fights took place, but none OF them
amounted TO a riot. They were single COM

said:

the reply.
Mr.. Crimmins then called over one of the
foremen and ordered him to call on the men to
return to work.
THAT'S all right said one of tho strikers,
but what about our pnyI'

some OF the men said they had not had any
lunch or any, money to buy food. and Mr..
Crimmins pulled out a handful OF small change
and began to distribute % cent pieces. There
was a Wild scramble for the money. in which
Mr.. hat was knocked Off.
About an. hour later the pay wagon arrived
and the work of paying on the men began At
ter one OF the men had been paid he was fol.
lowed by another man. who got into a tght
with him on the sidewalk in East Twelfth
street. The second man hit the trst man in
the face and sent him through the plste-slass
window Of J.. Puwell's store at the corner. A
big crowd gathered, 1t once, but the fight was
stopped there and then.
Early in the day Mr.. Crimmins sent the fol
lowing letter TO the firms OF sub-cOntractors,
Mcmahon. Naughton Il Co., and 7. E. Grim
Minis & Co.. who are doing the work:
GENTLEMEN: The law requires q corpora
ton to make weekly payments OF wages 10 al
labOrers and mechanics. While I appreciate
that tho law does not apply TO companies and
individuals in carrying forward work OF con-
structiou, I should be pleased to have you ar
range TO pay weekly. There is no question
about receiving the money weekly IL you re-
quire It by the presentation OF the rolls. Yours
very respectfully, jon D.
The reason OF the delay in paying the men
downtown WAS because the pay wagon paid the
uptown gangs hrst, and stopped on its way
downtown TO pay each gang before It reached
Union square.
