R. R. COMMISSION HEARS BRONX.
Many Complaints of Union COmpany's Ser
vice-President Maher to Reply.

There was a public hearing yesterday before
the State Railroad Commission at the Hotel
Bronxland, at which the transportation facilities
or rather the lack Of them in The Bronx were
discussed. Commissioners Dunn and Dickey
and Charles X. Barnes. electrical expert Of the
commission, were present. Edward Maher rep
resented the Union Railway. of which he is
president. The marlborough company was not
represented. Others present were A. c. Hot
1enroth. president OF the Taxpayers Alliance
and Colonel Charles Baxter. chairman Of its
executive committee; Olin J. Stephens, president
OF the North Side Board Of Trade; Albert G.
Davis, ex-president of the same body. and Con-
gresham Joseph A. Goulden.
Colonel Baxter criticised the management Of
the Union Railway Company. He said the ser
vice was inadequate in all respects. and that the
cars we're run irregularly on all the lines and
without regard for schedule. A. c. HOttenrOth
asked that the commission take evidence as

vice Louis Curvillier complained that it cost 10

BUMPS FOR PASSENGERS.
Fiat Wheels in SubUay and on III"
Relics of Strike.

There have been frequent complaints Of nat
wheels by the passengers on the elevated roads
and in the subway within the last few days,
Notwithstanding the statements Of the Inter
borough officials a short time ago that every
thing was moving as smoothly as if there had
never been a strike Sudden jOlts and jars are
stil felt at times. showing that some Of the
new rnotormen were still more or less clumsy.
At the Offices OF the Interborough Company IL
was admitted yesterday that during the strike
arrears OF work accumulated on the rolling
stock department. A representative OF the COM
pany said:
AS far as We know everything ought TO be
going en- smoothly. We have the best and most
powerful lathes of their kind In the world for
blaming wheels and they plane down nat
wheels very quickly. We kept up the repair
force during the strike. but in the confusion
when the strike acute, with men working
under new conditions there was perhaps more
10 look after than our mechanical force could
undertake. Even with the most skilful men the
100 sudden application of the barke may drag
one wheel while the others are moving, haIten-
ing it. There would be more Of these cases in
The first weeks Of the strike, but now the pub
lie notices incidents which occur in ordinary
traffic which they would never have noticed

WINTER WANTS CHANGES.
LETTER TO r. 4. BOARD.
Suggests Substitute Subpay Routes
for BROOKLYN.

z. ". Winter. president OF the Brooklyn Rap
tcN Transit Company. in a letter TO the Rapid
Transit Commission. suggests certain changes
In the proposed routes OF Brooklyn subways. It
IS regarded significant that the Brooklyn
Rapid Transit should come TO the front in want
ing changes made IN the routes and the COM
mission believes the company win be bidders
for al the Brooklyn routes. Mr.. Winters letter
is in part as follows:
After careful study OF routes outlined by your
committee on plans, the Brooklyn Rapid Tran
sit Company believes that certain alterations
shoulc be incorporated. in order 20 better meet
requirements OF the transit situation OF the
Borough OF Brooklyn The reasons for these
proposed changes are briefly as follows:
The line indicated Con map submitted with let
teri on Georgia-aVe. 10 Blake-ave. and thence to
the intersection of Eastern Parkway and Pitkin-
ave. reaches a pOpulous ana rapidly growing
section OF Brownsville not now conveniently near
any line OF transit.
The line on PalmettO-st. via Oppressive. and
Stanhope-st.. 10 an intersection with your COM
mittees proposed line on Broadway would afford
an additional outlet from a densely populated
and rapidly growing section known as the Ridge
wood district.
Changes were also suggested in reference to
the Gstes-ave. line. substituting one 10 Lafay
ette-ave.. the line running to Blackwells Island
Bridge.
In speaking OF the Manhattan end OF the sit
uation in Brooklyn the letter says:
We believe the lines thus far proposed for
Brooklyn travel IN Manhattan on Centre and
William SITS. from Delaney 10 Old Slip not
adequate, nor would they carry the people Of
Brooklyn far enough across nor far enough
north in Manhattan 10 bring them within easy
walking distance Of their places of business. 1t
IS estimated that 20 or - per cent of the peO-
pie working south of i4th-st. in Manhattan live
IN the Borough of Brooklyn. and ii would seem
that any subway plan made with reference 10
this business should afford a continuous ride
as far north in Manhattan that street.
Is lines
OF the operating company should extend north
Of Delancey-st. and west Of Broadway, and this
map suggests University Place, Wooster, Canal
Centre and William SITS on the east and 9Th
ave. Hudson. Duane and West SITS. on the west,
with connecting loops at l4th-st- on the north
and Cortlandt-st. and Maiden Lane on the south.
