r. ]. SPRAGUE OFFERS PLAN
Issues Pamphlet on Subway
Problem-To Share Profits.

In q nannT,lsf addressed to the Public
Service Commission Frank j. Sprague the
consulting engineer. who has been opposing
the triborough route for the last TWO
months offered yesterday two alternatives
which. in his opinion, would solve the sub
way problem of the city at considerable
saving OF public money
In a condensed table Of probable costs of
the triborough route Mr.. Sprague tried TO
show by using the figures thus far made
public by the commission that. with the ad-
dit:on of ell the items which should be con-
sidered but had been ignored by the COM
mission in its statements, the total cost,
including equipment, would reach $3.50 $751;
59S
Mr. Sprague said that the view OF the adj
vocates of the triborough that there are but
two alternatives before the city, namely,
surrender to the marlborough or the con-
struction Of the triborough as a competing
SYSTEM was wrong. and he suggested one
alternative for a general solution of the
problem and a proposal for an independent
line. already outlined by him on several
occasions.
The new proposition is joint profit ar
rangement based on the offer of the Inter
borough TO make extensions of its lines with
city capital Mr. Sprague explained this
in the following terms:
"A share of profits on extensions can be
translated into percentage OF profits OF
the whole some equitable basis Whlcn
recognizes all the contributing features, and
as matters now stand both the Interboroush
company and the Public Service Commls-
sion NAV well consider a material eXpan-
sion OF the earlier proposition on new
basis namely. that the city shall share TO
a proper degree in the profits from all sub
wav operation. and TO a lesser degree In all
elevated profits as we'll, on condition of
voice in the company's management ana
the adoption Of q fixed policy of co-opera-
ton during the lifetime OF the present fran
chise.
1T however. The marlborough interests
will not definitely renew their offer" Mr.,
Sprague said later, then let the Public
Service Commission do what any competent
private corporation would do-seize upon
every strategic route sought by the Inter
bormlgh which can be moulded into coher-
ent. workable system. construct il on sane
lines at the minimum cost. SO that 1t would
attract and maintain profitable independent
operation.
Such an independent line Is not that
represented by the trborough route"
Mr.. Sprague offered a four-track route
| from 42d street down Seventh avenue to
! Liberty STREE; one level, instead OF dou-
bic deck as that proposed by the trfber-
oush. below sd street; then a two-track
line TO the Battery. and another from Lib
