MILLION FOR PUBLIC WORK

The Board Of Finance Commissioners
has started to work on the budget for
the fiscal year of 1923. They began
this afternoon. prior to the regula
meeting and at a conference with Mayor
Pagan.
They are considering the estimates
money needed and asked for by the
different Boards, which have all been
submitted, with one exception. The
The Commissioners themselves have
made up their estimate but expect to do
so this afternoon.
Each Board asked more than it receiy-
ed this year. with two exceptions, the
Fire Board and the Sinking Fund Com
missioners. The former asks for S244,-
OPS as against s251, ,475 received this
year. The decrease is accounted for be-
cause no request has been made for
new FIRE engine. The Sinking Fund
Commissioners ask for less owing to the
fact that safe, at cost Of $500, was
purchased this year.
The Street and Water Board asks for
$3.50, 1850, as against S295.340 allowed
this year. The marked increase is be-
cause of extensive improvements which
the Board contemplates making. The
Board of Education wants S614, 400.
This year it received S526,23S. The in
crease is chiefly due to the increasing of
teachers salaries. Following is a table
of the moneys received by the different
boards this year a0agaiust the amounts

Pennsylvania Railroad Files
It's Scheme with the Rapid
Transit Commissioners.
MAMMOTH SUBWAY STATION
Boundaries of the Main Depot
Which Will Occupy -Four
City Blocks.

With the Rapid Transit Commissions
the ePnnsylyania Railroad has Sled its
plans for the tunnels and two big SUBJ
way stations in New York City One
of these stations viii be, as the engineers
say, "mamoth station constructed
under Thirty-third sstreet and extending
from Fifth avenue to Lexington avenue
It viii surpass any Of the big under
ground stations in London.
According to these plans the main en-
trance from the street to the tunnel
station win be at the Park Avenue Ho-
tel. and there will be another one near
the rear of the Waldorf Astoria. This
station is not the main station but is
what is termed "a subordinate stop
making it almost as important as the
main depot itself That viii occupy four
blocks. bounded by Thirty-first street,
Seventh avenue, Thirty-third street and
Ninth avenue: the lots ON the east side
of Seventh avenue between Thirty
first and Thirty-third streets and the
underground portion of Thirty-frst and
Thirty-third streets, between Seventh
and Eighth avenues, and between Eighth
and Ninth avenues.
That the road intended to make
station on Thirty-third street Mt Fourth
avenue has been known for some time.
but not until the plans were examined
yesterday was the imemnse scope Of
this work. realized. This so-called sub
ordinate station will extend along Thir-
ty-third street a distance of 1000 feet.
There is to be a station Of the rapid
transit line at the same point. 1t has
bene proposed that the New York Cen
trail should extend its tracks down to
this point along Park avenue. Should
this plan be carried out the Pennsyl-
vania and the Central viii meet at this
underground station.
In the franchise provisions Of the
Pennsylvania road there is this stipu-
lation: The company not to oppose the
construction of any rapid-transit rail-
road along or across the same routes
which do not actually interfere with
the authorized structures Of the COM

He referred to the trial of yesterday
and said that the only evidence against
the defendants was that of the complain
ing witness, which evidence was denied,
and met by the defendants. The officers
who served subpoenas had nothing co
do with him. He would not be a party
to inviting such influence and would not
receive the prosecutors limitations
without protest. He repeated ms de-
mand that the Court make an inyestlga-
ton.
Judge Blair here interfered. I di-
rected Yesterday that the names OF fwen-
ty men on the panel be stricken or FOR
failure to answer the call of their names.
| will say that | was surprised at the
verdict Of yesterday. The conduct OF the
present panel shows a laxity which can
not be tolerated. If it was to be toler-
ated it would be just as well to have no
court at ALL
Prosecutor Erwin again got on his
feet and said that there was no law that
compelled him to give process for service
to the Sheriff. He claimed that he could
have subpoenas served from his own Of
ise.
Judge Blair, sharply: Process will be
served as heretofore pending an order Of
the Court to the contrary.
Counselor Eagen then moved that
Curry and Lyons be paroled in the Gus
sody of the probation officers. Mr.. En-
win objected and protested. Judge BLAIR
told Mr.. Eagen that he could renew his
nation tomorrow morning, and held the
whole matter over.
Mr.. Vickers, when sene by the report
ers after the scene in court, said that
he made no charges against the honor
of anybody connected with the trial. He
insisted that hte verdict of the jury
should have been one of conviction. The
Court had disposed of the jury.
Constable Michael Eagan was not in
court during the colloquy between his
brother and the prosecutor. When he
heard about it he went to the bench
and talked to Judge Blair. He explained
that the subpoenas on Fo xand Kenny
were served the day before the case
was first listed for trial; that the case
was continued and the announcement
was made in open court to all witnesses
to attend yesterday without further no.
tice. That fact was recalled by Judge
Blair. Constable Eagan afterwards told
the reporters that he, too, demanded an
investigation and that he would not have
his honor maligned by Prosecutor Eagan
or anybody else.
The matter may again be referred to
tomorrow morning, but it looks as it the
incident was CLOSED and that the at
tempt to make political capital for the
iext shrieyalty campaign has missed
fire.

Six Pavonia Yachtsmen Run
Their Sloop Ashore in the
Shrewsbury River.

a Racking Wait Till Morn

Six prominent fishermen of the Heights

nights ago, while off on a fishing cruise
ON the Shrewsbury River Their boat
was sunk in FIVE feet of water and all
had to wade ashore. 1t was two o'clock
in the morning. 1t was pitch dark and
the fishermen had no idea where they
were at. After all had succeeded in
getting safely to land they We're forced
to camp out on the barren beach the
rest of the night until daylight arrived.
Then they repaired the boat.

the Pavonia Yacht Club on the sloop

Matthew Norton, Benjamin Cox, John
Cox and William Cosgrove. All these

The party did some fishing in the lower
bay before proceeding to the Shrewsbury
River 1t was near midnight when Cap
tain Lockwood turned the sloop up the
river. 1t seems that Lockwood lost his
bearings and. while steering around the
sloop. ran ashore The party was not
scared, but thoroughly at sea as to
lust what to do They did not know
where the boat had struck, but finally
took rope aud threw the anchor over
the bow.
Then all swan or waded ashore in
the dark. 1t was their intention to wait
until daylight to heave the sloop off.
Tney waited. 1t was dreary wait. how
ever. All were wet to the skin and
chilled to the bone Time passed slowly.
Ii seemed as though they had waited q
week for daylight to arrive.

tide had risen only about four feet of the
mast was visible. The stranded fisher
men were powerless to do anything. They
were almost famished and thoroughly
fatigued All they could do was to wait
until the tide went out again. When the
water lowered sufficiently the men went
to work to tow the boat ashore and re-
pair the bottom. A rope was thrown
over the masthead and the sloop pulled
over on its side and up on the beach. a
large piece of canvass was tackled over

sloop was finally foated and the fisher
