hearing In the Controllers Office.
William @. McAdoo, president Of the Hudson &
Manhattan Railway Companies. appeared in behalf
Of the project. Frank Hedley, ice-president and
general manager Of the Interborough company ap-
peared for his company and objected to features
of the franchise. He said he had objections to
granting the franchise, but thought that the Ian
guage Of the proposed request ought to be more
explicit and that il might, II framed at
present, lead many complications in carrying
out the plans and interfere with the ultimate de-
velopment of Manhattan and The Bronx. His princ-
pal objection that the proposed subway, on the
third level was granted 10 different companies
The Steinway tunnel he said the northerly
side of the thoroughfare. while the McAdoo tunnel
the southerIy side.
Mr.. Hedley said that he would like to have the
wording Of the proposed franchise changed so as
con1ne the McAdoo tunnel entirely 10 the south
erIv side but Mr. McAdoo would not accede TO this
Chief Engineer wilmington, of the Controllers
office said piecemeal construction Of the sort
proposed by the McAdoo company would retard the
development of subway building scientific lines
He said 1t was bad TO allow the McAdoo company
space in Sixth avenue all. the city ultimately
would need that for longer line.
After a long debate the matter was sent back to
the Public Service Commission for notifications
with reference TO the location OF a station and
passenger runways at AID street and Fifth avenue.
