Electric Cars Are to Pass Under
East River.
-FOUR TRACK SUBWAY TO Be BUILT
THE BROOKLYN RAPID TRANSIT
COMPANY WILL SOLVE THE
TRAFFIC QUESTION.

NEW YORK, April 27.-The Brook
Ign Rapid Transit company has evolv-
ed plans for solving the traffic ques-
ton which, if carried out will enable
the street railway lines to carry an
nually 2OO,OOO,000 more persons by 1910
than are carried now across the river
! every year. In a general way it is
the intention of the company to do
away with terminals, where no ones
journey actually terminates, and to
substitute subway loops.
The details Of the gigantic scheme
are complex, and many notifications
and alterations are probable before it
is complete, but in the rough outline
it is simple enough. Passing under the
East river in three tunnels, one of
which is to have four tracks, subway
trains will be run in a double loop
through the lower end of Manhattan
island and through the shopping dis
trict of Brooklyn around Fulton street,
intersecting in both boroughs many
of the most important of the existing
lines. Beginning at North Seventh
street, in Williamsburg, a four track
tunnel will run to the foot of East
Fourteenth street. Thence a four
track subway will run under Four
teenth street to University Place,
where it will split into an outer and an
inner loop. For the former the sub
way, with only two tracks now, is to
run to West Ninth avenue, then turn
ing south it will pass through Green
witch and Washington streets to Lib
erty Through Liberty street it will
be carried across town to William
street and down William street to the
mouth of the second tunnel, which,
starting at Old Slip, will emerge in
from Borough hall.
The inner loop, of two tracks also,
running through Wooster street to
Canal street, whence it will be carried
eastward again to Center street and
then south again, and will reach the
third tunnel at the foot of Maiden lane.
This tunnel will come out at Pineapple
street and a short distance beyond
trains runnig through it will reJoin
the trains on the outer loop, whose
route has already been described.
After the junction in the Brooklyn
half of the subway four tracks will
run under Willoughby street and Flat
bush and Lafayette avenues to the
Bedford avenue extension. Here two
| tracks will be carried straight to North
Seventh street and the first tunnel to
Manhattan. The two others, forming
another outer loop, will be carried on
to Bushwick avenue. and will be
brought back to North Seventh street
| by way of Metropolitan avenue. These
! loops will meet eleven lines in Brook
| Ign, three of them elevated, eight sur
| face lines. In Manhattan they will cut
| practically every line of Importance.
| Trains are to be run around the loops
in both directions. The cost of the
| scheme complete is estimated by the
company at $76,OOO,OOO. 1t is believed
| that the carrying out of this plan will
completely eliminate the bridge crush.

IMPORTANT PAINT NOTICE

Prof. Laid Gets After Paint Concern
That Is Trying to Fool the People.
There are being circulated various
circulars by parties unknown to my
self, giving analyses of Harrison Bros
C Co.'S mixed paints which circulars
are intended to deceive and mislead
from the fact that they represent
analyses of paints made some two
years ago, long before our present law
was under consideration. The an
alyses of the paints as then made do
not correspond with the analyses
made by this department during the
present year of some of the same
brands of paint as now found upon
the market in this state. Some of
these circulars bear no date and are
being sent out as though they repre-
scented analyses recently made, and by
us, endorsing these brands Of paints
and indicating that they require no
