TERMINAL BILL MAY BE FOID.
ALLEGED UNCoNsTITUTIoNALIrY OF THE
STATUTE FOR INCREASING FACILITIES
AT THIS END OF THE BRIDGE.

An alleged defect has been discovered In the
McCarren bill authorizing the changing Oh lhe
Manhattan terminal of the Brooklyn Bridge on
account of this the act is believed by the Board
Of Estimate to be unconstitutional. The State
Constitution provides:
mo private OF local bin which may be passed
by the legislature shall embrace more than one
subject and that shall be expressed IN the title
The bridge terminal bill apparently embraces
two distinct features, namely, one for the extern
sion Of the terminal facilities, the other for a
franchise for the elevated roads. which may be
limited to terminal facilities at the City Hall
station or may go to Harlem over new route.
In view of the probable defect in the law, ii Is
said that Controller Coler will advise that no
action be taken in the Board Of Estimate on the
terminal plans.
