CO. (Ths New York WORLD.

Public Service Commissioner 7. Ser
geant Cram i'd to-day that the pref
~erential payment proposition in the new
subway offer of the marlborough COM
pany is illegal. In his opinion. and a
violation of the constitutional provi-
sion. He made this statement to-day
following the meeting of the Public
Service Commission. al which the pro-
posal was referred to the committee OF
the whole for consideration.
The preference Is also objection
able" added Commissioner Cram, "be-
cause it would probably result IN the
city advancing the $56. 100000 during
the term of the proposed lease. without
securing payment of either the interest
or the principal bonds ISSUED by the
lefty at maturity"
Y lie added:
The provision relating to the Belmont
Tunnel. which in it's present condition
L. useless for subway trains, provides
that the me should be put in as
three million contribution by the Inter
boro. against which the CITY must issue
three millions In money. and then spend
probably three millions more In adapt
ing It to the use of subway trains. Thi.
Is in excess of the cost of a new up-to-
date tunnel
There are no provision In the Inter
boro proposal safeguarding against IN,
present d~isgracefui overcrowd1ng.
The provisions for the advance b,
the Interboro for contradiction here,
after to an equal amount with the CITY
are obscure. confusing and unprofitabl,
for the City.
I'm my judgement the City shoil,
either build the subway itself. ther
operate or lease It. or issue permits e
the Lnterboro for extensions of its pres
ent system. 10 DO built by the Inter
boro wholly at It's own expense.
The proposed permits for third-track
Ing the elevated roads should be granite,
and on easy terms. but l fall to see an!
connection between third-tracking tn
elevated and building subways.
The provisions for leveling existinI
leases and for recapture are illusor,
and add nothing to the value of the pro
posed agreement from q public point o
view.
