Judge Hiram r Steele, of the Brooklyn
League. favored Mr.. Abraham's plan as far as
it contemplated a direct connection or the CITY
Hall and the Brooklyn Borough Han oy SUP
way. 1t might be objected that as only the
Interborough company could use that route
there would be no competition, but TINS seemed d
trivial objection compared with giving an et-
fective service TO Brooklyn
I'VE have recognized that the Interborough
must necessarily be the tenant. and the city
might not get. so favorable bid as IL competi-
tion were possible" he said But what OF that,
when a satisfactory system of handling the pas
senger naft1c OF two big municipalities Is at
stake"
Daniel Moynahan, president Of the west End
Board of Trade, said that the Fourth-ave. tun-
mel would connect with all the street railways
leading to the seaside summer places and would
extend hope of connection with Brooklyn to
to the people Of Staten Island, possibly even a
connection with the transit systems Of New-Jer-
sey by way of staten Island
Irving L. Bush, of the Bush Terminal Com
rany. argued that there was no use confounding

gested sections at Thirty-sixth-st and Thirty

tenn of rapid transit through the subway for
horses and vehicles, to take place similar TO
the compartment for vehicles on ferryboats. II
some such provision were not made he declared
that manufacturing and shipping interests would
go 10 New-Jersey, where they had adequate
transit facilities.
senator Burton wanted tunnel built from
Brooklyn u Manhattan along the line Of the
new East River Bridge. Until that was done
there would be no relief from the bridge crush,
he declared.
After the Brooklyn hearing the board consid-
ered the moving of the Seventy -second-st. sta
tion Mr. Parsons reported that it would cost
some S2O,OO0 to move it back from the Seventy
second-st. line. No action was taken. Mr.. Par
sons said that he would leave this city for Pan
anna next Tuesday, and asked that his salary
as consulting engineer be stopped for the time he
would be absent. He also sent letter to the
board. saying that he had taken some work IN
Long Island City which would in no sense in
terfere with his work for the board
Does that mean that you will take no work
likely to interfere with your work for us?" asked
Mr.. Smith.
1T means that exactly" replied Mr.. Parsons.
Il want the board to understands that would
take contract which was in the least likely
to conflict with my duty here or, If ] wanted to
accept such work, would resign here first.

A DIVISION ABOLISHED.
That of Forestry. in General Land Of
fee Ceases Tonight.

BY order of the President the present
forestry division of the general land office
will cease to exist at midnight tonight and
the work of this division will be taken
I'D by the bureau of forestry Of the De-
partment of Agriculture. The higher
salaried clerks of the division, such as the
chief and his assistants, will be transferred
to the Department of Agriculture with the
division. The positions occupied by these
employees are statutory positions OF the
general land office, and promotions will be
made all along the line to fill them. The
incumbents of these positions Will NIL orig
inal vacancies in the Department of Agri-
culture.
The transfer of the forestry division of
the land office to the jurisdiction Of the
Department of Agriculture is the result OF
the suggestions and solicitations of for
estry experts throughout the country. This
division has had charge of the forest re
serves of the United States. and 1t has
been argued that the forest reserves nat
urally belong to the bureau Of forestry,
rather than to the bureau which has charge
of the public lands of the country. There
will probably be another division of for
estry created in the land Office In the near
future to look after the public forest land
not now included In the forest reserves.
The work of this division. however. will
be similar to the work of other divisions
of the land office, and will not deal with the
protection of trees etc, which has been an
important part of the duties of the divi-
sion which is to be abolished in the land
office.

TOLEDO LETTER CARRIERS.

ing Working Hours.

Postmaster General Wynne today had un-
der consideration the charges against a
number of carriers Of the force of the
post office atfToledo, Ohio of selling min
ing stocks along their routes during the
working hours. The matter has for some
time been under investigation by the
inspectors division Of the Post Office De-
partment. and the report of the inspector
who worked on. the case has been made to
Chief vickery and by that official to the
Postmaster General:
1t is likely that four of the offending car
riers will be dismissed from the service
and that eighteen others will be suspended
for short terms. The offense is violation
of the postal Jaws sand. regulations, which
forbid any soliciting whatever by carriers
or others IN the employ of the post Offices
In the case OF carriers such work could
easily be carried so1lbat a profit since per-
sons to whom mailais delivered naturally
feel an interest in the carriers and might
thereby be influenced. to invest in schemes
operated by them. Action, wiR- be taken,
according. to the decision of Chief Inspector

GERMAN COMMERCIAL TREATIES
Accepted Formally by the Bundesrath
Trade Relations EXPLAINED.

BERLIN, January 31-The bundesrath
accepted all the commercial treaties today.
This Is merely a formal act preparatory to
submitting them to the reichstag tomor-
row. They have been considered for some
days IN the bGndesrath In relation not only
to the treaty nations, but with reference
also to Germany's trade with other coun-
tries.
The prevailing view, as the Associated
Press learns. Is that the most favored prac-
tice IN application with other countries
should continue as heretofore. Prussia's
perpetual treaty with France is perpetual in
the sense that there Is no time limit IN
which 1t would have to be abrogated Were
Germany to decide to exclude the United
States and other states from the most
favored nation provision in the thirty nine
treaties which Prussia or the German en-
pire has with other states. including the
United States, Prussia would be in the
highest degree unwilling to abrogate the
treaty with France.
In discussing trade relations with the
United States the controlling opinion in
the bundesrath was that although there
was a measure of injustice in the United
States claiming, she certainly would, all
the privileges Germany obtained by COM
mercial treaty with other states through
afford to engage in a tariff war with the
United States, because she must have
American raw materials, such cotton.
while the United States would strike hard
by practically excluding $4,000 600 Of, man
ufacturers collateral S'''''
The effect of a tariff war, 1t was added,
would be to greatly injure the German
steamship lines and destroy the pleasant
political relations between the two eoun-
tries. The decisive fact, however, Is that
all the most favored nation discussion in
the bundesrath was on the existing treaty
with France. -1'r
