NUPT. AYDON'S
ANNUAL REPORT
He Recommends Constructing
SnbWayS for Electric
Lines

Jonathan W. Aydon, superintendent Of
the fire and police telegraph system, last
evening presented to the Police Commits
sioners his sixth annual report covering
the year ending June 80, 1899
In his report Mr.. Aydon strongly
fayors the erection Of subways for under
ground wires. In part he says:
Il renew my recommendation Of sew
oral years ago, that the city construct a
system Of subways for the purpose Of
placing all wires underground Recently
a franchise including the privilege Of con-
structing such system Of subways was
granted by the Street and Sewer Depart
ment to private parties, bnt these parties
have thus far made no effort towards
making their franchise practically ef-
fective.
by all means this subway should be
constructed by the city and be the prop
erty Of the people. Once constructed, the
wires now overhead could be placed in
this subway, thus affording an under
ground wire service OF the most practical
and useful character. The revenues aris-
ing from the annual charges for the use
VI Auf NMUNhNN y W val AOuH lNlt-
phone, trolley and electric light lines,
would. / am convinced, be sufficient to
pay the interest on the cost Of construc-
ton, and. in addition, TO establish a sink
ing fund for the ultimate extinguishment
Of the entire debt incurred.
81 feel that it would be to the real in-
tcrcst of the citizens and taxpayers for
your honorable body. in conjunction with
the City Council, 10 apply to the next
Legislature for the necessary authority
to enter upon this important work and to
provide means for the cost thereof"
Mr. Aydon called attention to the dan
ger arising from the prox nifty of fire
alarm and police wires to other wires
conveying high potential currents, and
recommended that a rule be created re-
quiring that all wires carrying high po-
tential currents shall be strung below the
fire alarm wires, and not closer than for
ty-four inches.
He also suggested that the Police De-
partment purchase more modern instru-
ments for police reporting boxes.
The system comprises: Police Tele-

tanning switchboard register and dupli.

consideration to the two election bills to
be presented to the Legislature. These
bills govern the city elections. They
were prepared by J. Harvey Whiteman.
and the Legislature will be given both, so
that they can take their choice. One bill
provides for few changes in the present
law and system now in use. The other
is radical change and the members of
the committee have some fears about it
meeting with the approval Of both polit-
ical parties 1t does away with the
present primary election or nomination.
In order to get on the official ballot all
person will have to do will be to pre-
sent Il petition bearing the names Of fifty
qualified voters to the Department of
Elections. No limit will be placed on the
number of candidates a party may put
up.
In fact on the ballots the party a candi-
date belongs to is not to be specified.
According to Mr.. Whteman's proposed
law the names of the various offices are
to be arranged across the top of the bal
lot. Under the offices the names of the
candidates are to be printed in alphabet
ieal order Unless the voter is acquaint-
ed with the candidates they will not
know to what party they belong. The OBJ
ject Of the bill is to eliminate as far as
possible party lines in the city election.
lt is provided that person wishing to
vote shall mark his choice in the left side
Of each column with black lead pencil

filed with the Election Department by
