According TO Cannssers' Records.

The registration keeps along about $50
or little less daily and, according TO
the indications, the last few days OF the
month will see the usual rush OF other
years repeated. II is a well known fact
that a large percentage OF the people OF
the city leave all their Affairs Till the last
minute and usually barely suueek through
I'm time, a fact which the clerks In all
the city departments have to deal with
the citizens readily recognize TO their
sorrow because OF the extra work II
makes them.
There were PAT persons registered last
year on June 18th. making the total for
that day 1885. Yesterday there was but
2o7 which made the total for this year
l.. .e56. something like 176o more than last
years total at that time.
At noon the Indications were for about
200 today. which will register a falling
off when compared TO the 2al registered
on Bunker Hill' day last year.
The grand total for last year was j.
900, but some people even considering the
falling of OF the daily registration now
are sanglrne enough OF an immediate In

The contract for building the Pennsylvania
,,,,psls on Manhattan Island. from the North
1,s,er shaft 10 the East River shaft. is likely to
Ia awarded in about ten days. According 10 a
rurnor which was partly confirmed yesterday
William Bradley. who is the contractor for the
creator part Of the rapid transit subway run
,ips, through upper Broadway. and for much
other irnportnnt work, viii set the contract Hs
* the lowest bidder. The successful way in
which he has carried on his subway building
rlaces him. IL is said. in a high rank as a sub
way contractor The Pennsylvania tunnel work
in Manhattan Island will be in many respects
similar to the subway work. and if he gets the
contract Mr. Bradley will be in a position TO
begin the work Immediately, he has sufi-
cient force Of skilled workmen in his employ
md a large amount Of the. necessary ma
cninery.
Besides being the lowest bidder Tor the and
work OF the Pennsylvania tunnels. Mr.. Bradley
was bidder for either the North River or tie
East River work. The contracts for the river
work were recently awarded to the ORorrkc
Engineering Construction Company and : Pear
son * Son. Limited. Of England
one reason why the land contract is likely 10
go to Mt bradley is said To be his ability to
find n quick outlet for all the rock that VIII
have 70 be blasted and taken away. He is one
~ the largest handlers OF stone in this cit,. and
owns many stone carrying harges and boats.
He could use much Of the rock tC be blasted

RIG SIBWllY CONTRACTOR LIKELY TO GET RIVER
TO RIVER TUNNEL CONTRACT.

Whoever gets the land work will have to do
# without disturbing the streets. The depth
OF the tunnels through the city will vary. At
Second-ave It viii be fifty feet below ground
and at Flrst-ave. seventy feet. The tunnels will
cross the East River line at a depth Of thirty
five feet below the bottom Of the river. The
work on the tunnels must in way interfere
with the rapid transit subway water. gas
and electrical mains.
Sir Weetman Dickinson Pearson. president OF
s Pearson & Son. to whom was awarded the
contract for the East River tunnels, is already
hard at work employing men. giving orders for
machinery and perfectng his plans. Sir Weet-
man said yesterday that he would have direct
supervision over the work. and that he would
have his headquarters either here or in Brook
lyn. lie said he expected 70 employ from two
to three thousand men on the work. lie thought
that ground for the tunnels would be broken in
about three weeks. He does not expect to meet
many difficulties.
The Pennsylvania Railroad has undertaken
an enormous work. hut that II will pay l am
