SUBWAY NAILS FEASIBLE
Postmaster WiIIcor Replies to Il.
B. CortheN.

Replying TO Il criticism of his plan to use the
subway for transporting the mails on the ground
that connection could be built between the sub
way and the Postofice and the subway and the
new Grand Central Station for two or three years,
postmaster Wilcox yesterday termed such criti-
cism rot" He couldn't see why. If the subway
meant such rapid transit for persons, it shouldn't
equally rapid transit for the mails, and he
reiterated his declaration that the solving of the
rapid delivery OF mails depended on the of the
subway. the installation OF pneumatic tubes con-
meeting all stations, and the establishment OF
branch postoffces fast they are needed.
a r. Corthen. the engineer in charge Of the
New-York CentraIs plans for the Grand Cen
trsl Station had declared that IT would take two
or three years to build the connections between
the subway and the Postofice and the railroad
station At present by possibility could the
subway be used to carry the mails, because Of the
lack OF space at the Grand Central subway station.
he thought
Mr.. Wilcox pointed out that in December a
conference was held between the Postoffice OFF,
cials and officials Of the InteTborough. at which
Mr. Bryan. the ce-president OF the company sub
rnitted a plan by which the subway could be
tended 10 enter the north end of the Postofice on
the Park Row side, and leave it the south side.
Mr.. Newman. president OF the New-York Central.
had assured the Postofice people that in two years
arrangements could be made for direct connection
Of the subway mail with the mail trains.
Mr Wilcox continued:
! am not aware that predicted the use OF the
subway for the carrying OF mails the completion
OF the New-York Central station Mr.. Cortheli
evidently believes that Improvement in every line
OF business this city revoves around the long de-
leyed Improvement on the New-York Central Rail-
road In making my recommendation for the use
OF the subway. was giving 10 thought TO the
new Grand Central Station. and / reiterate that
the use OF the subway in the carrying of mails in
this city would be great step IL advance.
The statement that spur could not be built
under the General Postoffice is nonsense This
has already been considered. and for any one who
claims to be engineer familiar with the build
ing Of subways to say that q spur could not be
put under the POstoflce. from the City Hall TO
5rOa0NaN seems almost past comprehension II
Ar. CoTthel means that a subway could not be
built ul.der the branch postofice TO be erected in
connection with the New-York Central station
why doesn't he say SO? ! do not why the
mails should not be transported from part OF
the city to another. from Manhattan Brook
lyn as soon as subways are completed. even If the
Grand Central Station is not finished.

Charges of Irregularities in Bronx.

The Municipal Civil Service Commission decided

Park Department until Park Commissioner Henry
