The Couklin bill removes the restrictions
OF the Eisberg bill of 1905, which vas in
tended to prevent further bgiiding the
erection in City Hall Park OF building
occupying more space than existing struct-

FOR SHORT BALLOT.
: amendment Favors .Appo1nt-
ment Of Certain State Officers.

IE3v Telegraph to The Tribune
Albany, Feb 2-Assemblyman Dana. of
New York, to-day dropped into the bill box
4 proposed constitutional amendment, fol-
loving out the Governor S recommendation
for a short ballot. It provides that the
Governor, Lieutenant Governor and Con-
troller shall be the only state officers voted
for by the people The Secretary of State.
Attorney General State Treasurer and
State Engineer and Surveyor are 10 be ap-
rointed by the Governor. Mr.. Dana at
tempted to introduce the amendment,
which was in the form of a concurrent
resolution from the floor at to-days ses-
sion, but objection was made by two DEM
ocratic members.
In speaking of the measure the intro
6ucer said that voters centralize their at
tention on the Governor, Lieutenant Gov
ernor and Controller, and have no time or
inclination to choose to the rest of the
state Offices which are administrative.
This measure" he said, will make the
Governor responsible for the admnistra-
ton, and will give greater centralzati tion OF
responsibility. It will shorten the ballot
and more simply bring TO vote the Issue
between the parties"
He expressed the belief that the officials
10 be made appointive are now selected
principally for geographical reasons. and
that the voter desires to vote by party and
then hold the party responsible for an
efficient government through the Governor.

HUDSON BRIDGE SITE CHOSEN.
Interstate Commission Recommends
Eastern End at 179th Street.

Albany Feb. 2--The Interstate Bridge
Commission in its report to the Legislature
to-day recommends the selection Of a site
for a bridge over the Hudson River from
l19th street, New York, to q point opposite
on the New Jersey shore al the foot of the
Palisades. This will require main span
not exceeding 100 feet in length. One ad-
vantage pointed out is that il will connect
the trolley system of The Bronx with that
of New Jersey and connect tho New York
park system with the new Palisades Park.
The opinion is expressed that the state
of New Jersey. which now fayors d site
further downtown, viii withdraw its ebjec-
ton TO the 179th street site and will furnish
its proper share OF the funds necessary to
the construction OF the bridge. also provide
road connecting it with the New York
State Boulevard, which is projected 10 the
state line, about ten miles distant.
