RAILROAD STOPS sCALPING
New York Central Gets After Dealers
in Communication Tickets.

Twenty-Five prisoners appeared before
Justice Mills, of the Supreme Court, at
White Plains, yesterday. to answer to the
complaint of the New York Central Rail
road that many residents of Peekskill, Gro
ton, Tarrytown, Ossning. Dobbs Ferry and
Irvington, on the Hudson River division,
ahoe, on the Harlem division, buy from one
to twelve Communication tickets monthly. and
sublet the use of the tickets to friends and
customers at one-half of the regular rail-
road ticket fare, which is a liberal advance
on the pro rata cost of the Communication
ticket. The railroad authorities allege that
one man, living in Tarrytown, has paid the
interest on his mortgage on two houses,
taxes and all other charges, from the re-
ceipts from the use of eight tickets which
he has bought monthly. Two women ap-
pear on the list-Mrs. Mary Albert and Mrs.
Margaret Farrell, both of Ossining- The
latter had eight tickets in use, while the
former had six, 1t was alleged.
The railroad had several men getting evil
dence. In each case where the investigator
hiI ed the use of a ticket he took ii TO the
New York office of the company where it
was photographed. and the Photographic
copy now forms a part of the records in

counsel and consented to the fling of an
order enjoining them from the practice. and
all agreed 70 abide by the order. If any
are found 70 be disobeying it they will be
hailed before the court to answer to a
charge Of contempt of court and will also
be sued for damages

EXTENDS SEVENTH AVENUE
Board of Estimate Approves Plan
of Lengthening Thoroughfare

The through artery of travel from Times
Square 10 Greenwich Village and the lower
West Side which has been needed for
many years was provided for yesterday
when the Board Of Estimate approved of
the proposition to lengthen Seventh avenue.
The plan is TO extend that thoroughfare
from its present terminus, at Greenwich
avenue, south TO Varick street, and 10
widen Tarick street from that point to
its terminus 1t West Broadway and Frank
lin street from So TO 100 feet.
The proposition. which il is estimated will
cost some $I0.000Go0 has been before the
hoard for several years. The special com
nlittee Of the Board Of Estimate was con-
Jinued' for the purpose OF fixing the area
Of assessment. 1t Is suggested that il will
probably include all Of the property in
Greenwich Village and all that fronting in
Seventh avenue for its entire length
The board tentatively approved the propo-
sition to extend Irving Place south from
18th street TO Fourth avenue. The cost is
estimated at 100000, and the board holds
the right TO change the present plan before
work Is actually begun on its execution
Borough President McAneny urged ac-
ton on the widening of the 34th street
roadway, as II is intended TO provide for
the extra traffic TO be caused by the OMEN
ing Of the Pennsylvania Railroad Station
As many business interests said they de-
sired more time TO consider the question
OF having their sidewalks cut down +o
widen the street, final action on the nrono-
sitlon was postponed until the next meet
ing Of the board on JULY %

PRINTERS ENTER A DENIAL
Tell Mayor All City Record
Work Was Authorized.

George r. Valentine, manager for the
Martin B. Brown Company. printers of
the City Record, sent to Mayor Gaynor yes
terday a long reply to the report of the
City Record Commission.
1t denies all the charges brought by the
commission, and declares that every line
that has been printed in the City Record
has been printed order of the different
departments. as under the contract they
were compelled to do.
The answer says that all the real and
substantial reforms to be accomplished
both in the publication of the City Record
and in the administration of the office
itself, could be accomplished without the
abuse that is incorporated in the report Of
the commission.
1--WE assert, and stand ready to prove
says the answer. despite any charges
made by the commission, that the prices
for services which have been rendered by
the contractor for the City Record to the
city have been reasonable and just, con-
sdering all the elements which ought
fairly to be taken into account and that
every item of work done. either under con-
tract open orders, authorized by
those legally empowered to authorize the
same.
IF the printer were given discretion as
to the form in which public documents
should be expressed. how much of them
should be left out, there would be very
little use for the publication of public
documents"
Continuing. the statement says:
I'VE declare with utmost emphasis that
every dollar of work performed on open
orders for the city was duly authorized
by concurrent action of the three members
of the Board of City Record"

BUY 100000 AT PAR
But Value of "Inter-Met." Notes
Depends on Reorganization.
TEN DIRECTORS HIT AGAIN
Preferred to Put Up $5,500,000
Rather than Defend Suit,
Lawyer Says.

It was said yesterday by one of the law
yers concerned I'm the Metropolitan Traction
settlement that the 100000 of per cent
notes to be issued by the marlborough
Metropolitan Company to pay its share OF
the IS, 800 600 settlement, had been subscribed
for by the ten directors of the Metropolitan
Securities Company who contributed the
remaining s1,5Oo,000 to make up the settle
ment.
The marlborough Metropolitan notes are
to be issued at par, and the ten men who
buy them will get their money back, If the
notes are paid But the interest that the
'Inter-Met." has in the surface railway
system depends on its interest in the Metro
politan Securities Company. The Securi-
ties company controlled the surface rail-
way situation before the receiverships be-
gan. but that companY's future interest
will depend on the method of reorganiza-
ton.
The 100000 of notes which the ten Secu-
rites company directors have agreed to
buy have at present, therefore, only
hypothetical value.
The inducement to the directors to settle
I'D was the suit for s. 797, 200 brought
against them by Colonel W. w. Ladd, re-
ceiver for the New York City Railway
company 1fllS suit represented TIE I'LL
ference between the price at which the
New York City Railway Company's ten
year 3 per cent notes were sold to the
Metropolitan Securities Company 0O and
the price at which they were redeemed
within a short time-par
The receiver for the New York City Rail-
way Company alleged a statutory violation
by the Securities company directors.
All the claims of the City Railway Com
pany were then Jumped together, making
a total of little less than 100000.
About s1250.0O0 had already been paid,
and the ten Securities company directors
compromised the remainder by agreeing 30
pay s1.500,0o0 out of their own pockets and
subscribing for 100000 of notes which
might have a value some time in the future

DUMMY ENGINES MAY RUN
Board of Estimate Refuses TO
Enioin New York Central.

BY vote of 10 to the Board of Esti-
mate yesterday refused 10 pass the reso-
luton of President Mitchell of the Board
of Aldermen calling upon the police 70
stop the running of dummy engines by the
New York Central on it's Eleventh avenue
tracks below 30th street This followed the
receipt of an opinion from the Corporation
Counsel that while the city unquestion-
ably had some rights in the premises they
were not clear enough to render the use
of force advisable.
After the vote the Mayor said he would
instruct the Corporation Counsel to begin
q suit in equity to test the rights of the
New York Central in Eleventh avenue.
Alexander s. Lyman, of counsel for the
railroad. ntimated that If the city should
stop the use of dummy engines the com
pany might not do anything, but that the
city might be held liable for all damages
done to the business interests involved. He
said the New York Central Railroad con-
sidered its rights to occupy its tracks or
the West Side had been settled by the de-
olson of D. Cady Herrick.
President Mitchell argued for the passage
of his resolution, saying that there could
be no question that the rights of the COM
pany to run dummy engines had expired
years ago.
II think Mr.. Mitchel's idea is in the main
correct" said the Mayor, but 1 think it
is too doubtful a matter to use violence
in"
The Mayor then appointed a committee
consisting of President Mitchell, Controller
Prendergast and President McAneny, TO
consider ways and means of dealing with
the Eleventh avenue problem. II presume
the committee will allow me to work with
them, said the Mayor. He was assured
that his assist ance would be valued.
