Although the Rapid Transit Commissioners are
not talking much about the Ellsworth bill. there
is no doubt that they considerably exercised
over the measure. Speaking OF the bill yesterday
one of tho commissioners said that there was
considerable danger that the bill might pass unless
the business men Of this city and others who
were DESTROYS OF seeing the city provided with an
adequate system OF rapid transit directed thel-
efforts 10 defeating IT, 1t is not improbable that
the commissioners themselves will Immediately
take steps that may 10 some extent nuty the
aims OF Messrs. Croker and Plat. The Commits
sion IT is understood purposes to act quickly on
the Manhattan plans. 1t was intimated by one of
the commissioners yesterday that the report OF
the Conference Committee would be made before
the end OF the week. The subcommittee Of the
Commission met yesterday afternoon. and 1t
represented as now ready report. Just what
recommendations or suggestions contained in
this report cannot he ascertained until IT has been
laid before the meeting of the full Commission; but
there is little doubt that the Manhattan company
as a factor in tho rapid-transit problem will be
eliminated With the Manhattan plans finally and
quickly settled. the Commission will be prepared

further delay The specifications and the form OF
