"TAMMANY CONTRACTS" REST.
Cram Doesn't want service Board
Accused Of FaVoritlsm.

Rather than have the Public Service
Commission accused OF favoring Tam
many contractors" Commissioner J. Ser
geant Cram said at yesterdays meeting
ahat he was I'm favor Of rejecting the
contracts whereby the lnterborough
would engage Terry a. Tench, the T. A.
Gillespie Company and Enare a Triest to
extend Its elevated roads for l2iH per
cent. above cost
When the Interboroughs application to
have the contracts .. k came before the
commission about three weeks ago Mr..
Cram said he was ready TO vote yes"
But week later he had changed his
mind and, like the Board of Estimate,
thought there ought to he competitive
bidding. Yesterday he resumed his orig
ina position. He said that as the con-
tractors are the same that are third
tracking the elevated lines It would be
best to let them build the extensions
also.
However he added. "as the proposed
compensation il objected to It seems bet
ter to reject the contract than to make
! II a political card"
1t developed that the Interborough had
not yet obtained the consent of all prop
erty owners along the route OF the extern
slons. Action by the Appellate Division
Of tho Supreme Court Ia required. so the
whole matter rests until October q
