At a meeting of the Atlantic Coast Conference

races in the future the foremost mainmast of

There will be change in the scale of time al

CENTRAL PLAN.
Assemblyman Says Road Should
Pay for All I'm poUements.
by Telegraph to The Tribune.l

Albany. Feb. S.-AssembIyman Oglesby, of
Westchester to-day introduced a bill which
will seriously affect the New-York Central's i'm
provements from Croton to New-York. where it
is planned 10 change the motive power TO cleo
tricity and 10 abolish several grade crossings.
Mr.. Oglesby's bill provides that where the To-
cation of the roadbed is changed or electricity
or other motive power is substituted for steam
the entire expense of abolishing grade crossings
shall be borne by the railroad company. The
present law provides that the State shall pay
one-quarter of the expense the locality one
quarter and the railroad company one-half
Mr.. Oglesby said
Such expenditure by the State for protecting
the lives of its citizens may possibly be justified
in some instances on the ground that the rail-
read has it's grade established. Personally |
don't believe any public service corporation or
individual has or can acquire a vested right TO
commit murder or to conduct its business as
To be constant menace to the lives of persons
travelling the public highways
The New-York Central has made extensive
plans for the improvement of its road from New
York City TO White Plains and has petitiOned
the Board of Railroad Commissioners for an or
der abOliShing all grade crossings the road
between these points. The plans include the
substitution of electricity for steam The use of
electricity would of itself necesstate the aboli-
ton of all grade crossings. 1t would not be
practicable 10 run as many trains as will be
called for in their proposed schedule many
of which are express, with highway crossings at
grade.
1t is inconcefvable that the Board of Railroad
Commissioners would put the stamp of its APP
prOval on this bold attempt of the New York
Central company to compel the State practically
to rebuild and electrify its road, and the only
reasonable deduction that could be drawn from
such action would be that it the result of q
conspiracy, either actual or constructive, be-
tween the Railroad Commissioners and the rail-
road company. l should consider it nothing
short of crime.
