THE CONTRACT AWARDED.

The Rapid Transit Commissioners have some
times been accused of proceeding too slowly
with their task, but they certainly wasted no
time in choosing between the two bids for the
underground franchise which they received on
Monday. Yesterday afternoon they awarded
the contract to Mr.. John B. Mcdonald who pro-
posed to do the work for $50 100000 but offered
no percentage on the gross receipts, in prefer
ence TO accepting Mr.. Andrew OnderdOnk's bid
of $39,300000, with percentages rising to 10 per
cent on gross receipts exceeding $5,000,000. In
both cases the sureties were found to be salts
factory, and the chief question was which offer
was financially the more advantageous to the
city In the former case the city would have
to loan its credit to a considerably smaller
amount than in the latter, but would forego the
chance of a direct return the sum advanced
over and above the interest on the bonds sold
to procure it. The decision is that this is the
better arrangement
We have said that the comparative financial
merits OF the two propositions were the chief
question: but they were presumably not the
only question The Board was bound to con-
slider also what working arrangements with
other transportation companies were in pros
pect. That was a matter concerning which the
public not competent to form an opinion,
but it must be assumed that the Board was in
possession or all the information essential 10 its
purposes; for, as we observed yesterday the
advertisement required each bidder to submit
with his proposal the names and addresses of
all persons connected with it, directly in
directly 1t is to be expected that at the proper
time the public will be fully informed of such
facts. Meanwhile there will be no general dis
position TO doubt that the Board has exercised
its discretion wisely.
The fact that Mr. Mcdonald Is closely ident-
fed with Tammany Hall, not only as a sue
cessful contractor, but an officer of the
organization, inevitably creates belief that he
has its powerful backing, and some of it's most
important members for his associates in the
present enterprise If the conditions were diff
ferent, this apparent connection would doubt
less cause anxiety and complaint; but the Rapid
Transit act, the terms of the contract and the
character of the Commission whose control Of
the undertaking continues may be presumed to
constitute a satisfactory security for the public
interests. 1t is difficult to realize that after
many years of almost hopeless waiting Obsta-
ces which at various times seemed fatal have
been removed, and that the construction of I'M
derground roads is actually about TO begin.
Let us hope that the execution of the project
will be expeditions as the preparations have
been weariSome.

where this per cent tax, If 1t could be levied
with even moderate completeness on the securi-
ties OF residents, would not only pay all local
taxes without any assessment of real estate, but
fill county and town treasures with sums which
they have not the slightest need to spend. This
is class taxation of the most patent sort. A
fixed rate in such places would mean extrava-
gance, as do all tax leves which are arbitrary
and not based on needs of government.
A tax on securities without deduction for debt
would operate hardly on banking and brokerage
business. Vast amounts of stocks and bonds
are bought on credit or used as collateral for
loans. If the holder at the instant of assessment
is to be taxed for their full value and not merely
for his equity in them, there will be a decided
contraction in loans and suspension of business
at the annual assessment period. long string
of brokers would be seen crossing the North
River the first week in January to get stocks
temporarily ont OF their hands into those of
some Jerseyman-that is, if the law ever went
into anything like general execution. If en-
forced it would operate TO drive capital from
the State, just as the present law would if en-
forced. The force of the existing pressure would
be greater or less as the tax rate is different
that is all If il is not TO be enforced there is
reason for passing it. How the committee think
it can have anything like general and equal op-
Grafton in view of their own declarations, passes
comprehension. Workable or not it is just an
other piece of patchwork, and what New-York
wants is not tinkered tax laws but scientific
tax system

The Supreme Court at Washington has only
this week finally passed upon the case OF the
seizure of vessel as a blockade runner by our
Navy on July 49, 1898, and has. by the way, de-
cided that the condemnation and sale OF the
vessel were not justified. 1t was a British yes
sci, but We have not heard that the British
Government or the British nation was sitting up
O. nights in anxiety, indignation, or any other
state Of mind, over it. In view OF that record
we reckon there has been good cause for
throwing fits In this country over British deten-
ton for a few weeks of some American cargoes.
and will not be until at least one year, five
months and twenty-six days have elapsed from
date of seizure.

the flag is just as pronounced to-day
