The sawdust trail leading 20 tho
rostrum in Billy Sunday tabernacle
will connect with New Tork's rapid and
other systems Of transportation. While
the religious organizations backing
Sundays revival campaign have been
preparing for his entry in New YORK
the men who manage the subway and
elevated crowds, the surface and bus
traffic have figured on, ways and means
OF handling few thousand more men.
women and children 90 and from the
tabernacle.
And outside the counc. OF the eX-
pert traffic managers. several hundred
proprietors Of taxicabs and Ford cars
have selected points in the vicinity Of
the tabernacle to catch the overflow
and to convey visitors TO the SUNDAY
meetings. These independents will
operate chiefly between the elevated
station at 15sth Street and Eighth Ave
nue. and the big building where Sunday
will cxhort New York sinners.
viii Add More Cars
The Sixth Avenue elevated and the
subway will merely increase the mum
her of cars in their trains for the
hours set for the revival meetings. Il
was said yesterday afternoon that the
trains could not run on closer schedule
than they do at present. The people
who use these two principal arteries
of transportation will perhaps expe-
rience bit Of regulation rush-hour
crowding no matter how efficiently the
trains are handled.
The Third Avenue Railway Company,
operating the surface cars, Will add
several hundred coaches to their reg
ular rolling stock during the campaign.
Officers Of the company said yesterday
they would operate cars on less than
one-minute Roadway beginning to-day.
The three lines which run closest TO
the Tabernacle are the Third and
Amsterdam, which goes within one
block of the place, and the Kingsbridge
and 145th Street and Broadway lines,
which run past Sundays church. The
first named line operates from the
Postofiice in Park Row TO Fort George.
A branch Of the same line runs from
l25th Street ard the East River, over
the same tracks up Amsterdam Avenue
to l62d Street. along 81. Nicholas Ave,
nue. to 16Sth Street. The l45th Street
, and Lenox Avenue line runs up Am
sterdam Avenue 20 162d Street anC
Broadway and along Broadway past the
tabernacle.
The Fifth Avenue Coach Company an
nounced that 200 new coaches had beer
ordered several months ago to meet tn,
( demands of the Sunday revival. Sew
/ eral of the coaches have been delivered
and it is expected that all will be il
operation within a week or two. in ad

Cost to CITY Considerable.

Even from Fourteenth to TweN.
;tieth street the cost to the city Will
be considerable, as the assessments
on the valuation of the abuttlng
property will not cover the cost OF
The paving.
Main street from Twentieth to the
city limits can be repaired at small
cost and put into very good condition
until such time as the city feels 1t
can bear the burden OF the cost OF
permanent street paving.
The brick from Fourteenth 20
Twentieth streets will be laid on
five inch concrete base and q COM
bination cement curb and gutter Will
be used. The gutter will be two
feet wide on either side OF the street
and this will help cut down the cost
of the brick. The street will be
,ixty-six feet wide between curbs,
he same as down town.
Park on Upper Main Street
The resolution calls for q park
seventeen feet wide between Nine
teenth and Twentieth streets. In the
center of the street. This block Is
the highest portion OF the whole
street and the parking will make an
attractive addition to the upper end
Of the street.
The brick on Franklin street will
be laid on four inch concrete base
and the combination cement gutter
and curb will be used on this street
.lso. The gutter viii be eighteen
inches wide.
A few days ago the city passed
esolutions ordering in seven blocks
of concrete paving. This with the
brick paving ordered today will be
the city's complete paving program
for this year. Altogether twenty
three blocks have been ordered.

country in large amounts in antici-
patton of the break of diplomatic

reliable financial circles here today.
Two million dollars in gold has

Opens ing quotations, which ranged from 3-4c to 6 1-4c high CT with January $1231-2 to $1.273-4 and May $1.2O 1-2 to $1.26, was followed by moderate further gains before reac- tion set in. Both December and Jan uary rose to within 1-4c of the exist ing maximum limit.
 Oats duplicated the action of corn. The greatest upturn, however, was 2 1-2c.
 Provisions sympathized with the strength of cereals. The resulting gains, however, were not of sweep ing character.
 Subsequently, denials that the max imum price limit on future deliveries would be disturbed led to something of setback. Reports were current meanwhile that a maximum and mini mum price limit on cash corn would be established The close was nerv- ous. 1c to 1-8c net higher, with Jan uary SPA 7-8 to $1.25 and May SIPS 374 to $1.23 7-8. e,..a

New York Cnttnr.

New York, Dec. 20.-The cotton market opened steady today at an ad- vance of to points in sympathy with firmer Liverpool cables. There were overnight buying orders around the ring, but they were soon supplied and the market weakened after the call under local and Wall street sell ing. The census report of 10,142, 1858 bales ginned to December 13 was al- most exactly as expected. The light ginning for the first December period had evidently been discounted and re- cent buyers turned for profits on the publication of the figures. Prices cas- ed off in consequence, January sell ing down from 29.51c and March from 29.11c to 28.82c before the end of the first half hour, or about 18 to 21 points lower.
 Trade interests were buyers on the early decline, while there was no change in the generally bullish aver ings tapered off the market turned steadier. Business was quiet late in the morning with prices showing ral- lies of several points from the lowest.
 Offerings were very light during the early afternoon and the market showed considerable strength on con- tinued trade buying and covering. Near months were relatively firm, with December selling up to 3O.49c or PA points net higher, while January advanced to 29.61c and March to 29.19c, or about 16 to IS points above last nights closing figures. Reports that the central powers would issue another peace statement within the next few days may have been partly responsible for the advance, but it was more generally attributed to the absence of spot pressure and the strength of the near months.
