CHANGES IN SUBW4Y.
=. ). 4. Has Ne5c Plan for
UcsfchestFr 1renHe Branch.

The Public Service Commission sent 70
the Board Of Estimate and A9portionmeut
Yesterday for its approval . mobilization
of tho Southern Boulevard and Westchester
avenue branch OF the Bros 1way- IL xington
.eenue subway. By the proposed change
5here win y. two miles more Of subway
than was originally planned This is to take
the place OF Two miles Of elevated structure.
The new plan differs IN two respects. In
the first place. the road. instead Of coming
to the surface in 1SSth street near Cypress
avenue. is continued as sub-av 10 point
i'm private property near a point on Whit
lcck avenue. between Bancroft and Aldus
streets. In the second place. the line of the
railroad north OF Hunts Point Read. IN
stead n coutin ing along tho Southern
Boulevard and Westchestsr aven1a. curves
into Nhiti1ck avenue and thence runs
north along Whitloc,S avenue and private
property into westchester avenu..
The commission states IS reason for
ITS determination to continue the subway
further into The Bronx that ths cost of
coming 70 the surface In East isSth street
would he excessive The advantage Of the
new plan is that II makes "a possible TO
rrinS the road 20 the surface without block
ing the street and on comparatively mex
pensive private .-oIertv. Tho line in
Whitlock avenue is also straigh-sr End
shorter
Tho new application % tie Board of
Estimate may tie up the contrast letting
on the t3roadwa LsNir gton avenue route
for a time. pending tho hearings for and
against tha proposition.
The commission alsN addressed the Board
Of Estimate H the matter Of six resolu-
tious passed by the board on October %
requesting inf,rmaton of tine commission
as to 1he general status OF rapid transit
