UNIONS THREATEN SUBWAY.
Views Of the speakers at the Annual Din
ncr OF the Municipal Club.

Some fifty members of the Municipal
Club of New York. which is a Brooklyn
organizatior-came over here yesterday
and went through the Rapid Transit tunnel
from the Circle at Sevnnty-frst street
under the guidance Of S. l., F. Deyo. the
chief engineer OF the Subway Construction
Company. The party then took look at
the power house at the foot of West Fifty
ninth street before adiourning to Reisen-
weber's Hotel. where they had their annual
dinner and listened to number q speeches
on rapid transit.
II am quite sure that the contractors will
finish the work on the tunnel in tin,e,e Con-
tractor John B. Mcdonald told them.
There will be some delay in the compile
ton of thepower house due to labor troubles,
but We hope to be able to lease power from
other companies that will enable us to to
operate the road from the day OF its open
ing and till our own plant is ready.
In building the Fast River tunnel we
have to go down deeper than any one has
yet done. | cannot assure you that
the tunnel will be built on time, because
the difficulties are so great and, more than
that. because the uncertainties are so many.
1t is known now that no man can work
more than two hours at a stretch at such a
depth. We have reason to believe that our
worknen shall not even be able to work
SO long"
John Peirce, a director Of the Subway
Construction Company. dealt with the
additional difficulties arising from the
attitude of organized labor. He referred
to the delay in the completion of the Hall
Of Records. OF which he is the builder,
