Benjamin {. Marsh. secretary of the
New York Congestion Commission, declared
last night that he would challenge Con-
trolIer Prendergast to public debate on
the question OF the proper way to make up
the budget of the city.
Mr.. Marsh sent a letter to all the mem
bers of the Board of Estimate yesterday
in which he said ii was a subterfuge to
pretend to economic by cutting down the
departmental budget, when it would he
necessary 10 make up various deficits in
departmental expenses by issuing revenue
bonds during the year. He said that the
city budget should be computed so as TO
include the corporate stock budget in the
total expenses of the city as well as by
computing the additional revenue bonds
issued
When Mr.. Marsh appeared before the
board yesterday to argue the matter Con-
troller Prendergast told him he was deal
ing in kindergarten finance" Mr.. Marsh
protested that every statement he made
was true. After thinking it over for a
while he decided that the only way to
vindicate himself was to issue a challenge
to the Controller.

received a shock yesterday at the meet
ing of the Board of Estimate when Con-
troller Prendergast suggested that the sala-
ries of the justices in Brooklyn be equal
lied with those in Manhattan by cutting
down the latter to $500 year and raising
the former to that figure. The justices in
Brooklyn now get $500, and Justice Rus
sell was contending that their salaries
should be raised to 5000 to meet those OF
the Manhattan justices. The contention
viii not be allowed.
Alderman Frank Bowling argued for rails
ing the pay of ell day laborers from 81 and
Sc 80 a day to So a day. He said that while
salaries of higher paid servants of the city
were being increased the day laborers
had received no consideration, although
they were the hardest hit by the increased
cost Of living.
The New York Telephone Company re
newed it's offer of 1906 to make certain
money payments and give the city service
at a so per cent reduction from regular
rates If II should be allowed to continue
its monopoly in the city. The matter was
referred to the Corporation Counsel for
report on December 2.
