NIXON WILL HASTEN
TRANSFER HEARINGS
Decision Sought on Abolition
at 80 Points Before Federal
Court Acts July 8.
BIG SHORTAGE INDICATED
B. r. T. Receiver Presses His
Application for Issue Of
S15,000,O00 Notes.

Hearings on the application of Job
Hedges, receiver Of the New York City
Railways Company. for the right to
abolish free transfers at ninety-nine OF
tho 11S transfer points on Its lines and
to charge three cents for them in the
future. were begun before Public Ser
vice Commissioner Nixon yesterday.
Henry l.. Stimson. counsel for Mr..
Hedges, led the argument for the appll-
cation, assisted by James L. Quacken-
bush. counsel for the New York Rail-
ways. Corporation Counsel Burr, ap-
pearing with e. J. Kohler for the city.
objected to the taking Of any testimony
until an UP to date appraisal Of the
property could be made.
AS Judge Mayer, in the Federal Court.
has fixed July s as the time when he
will decide whether the Eighth avenue
and the Sixth avenue lines shall be
turned back to their original owners be-
cause the New York City Railways can
not pay the rental charges, Commits
soner Nixon announced that he wanted
the question OF whether transfers should
be abolished settled before that date.
When adjournment was taken until
tomorrow morning the Commissioner
announced that he wanted to complete
the hearing on that day.
Evidence given by Frederick @. Wood,
assistant to General Manager Hedley,
was to the effect that the adjustment
of free transfers and the charging of
three cents for them would bring an ad-
ditional revenue to the road of $S63,sS1
year. 1t was stated that rentals now
due and unpaid to subsidiary lines
/ amounts to s667,b10. If Judge Mayer
does not get assurance by July that
the rentals can be paid, 1t is believed he
will separate the Eighth and Ninth ave-
nue. lines from the consolidated system.
The earnings for the system up to March
81 were $4,000 short of paying the in
terest on the bonds, not to say anything
of the rentals. This interest is due to-
day and will have to be defaulted, Mr..
Stimson said

 streams of Alaska.

FLONATON R DAD
Be FIXED BY
COUNTY FUNDS

AS soon as the weather clears up,
construction work will begin on the
Pensacola Iomaton road, which the
county commissioners, with the aid
of state funds, are planning to put
into first class shape. Altogether
about $4,000 is to be put on the road,
the county furnishing the labor The
construction to be done under the su-
pervision of the state highway COM
missioner.
A three way drag, which will be
drawn by a tractor, has arrived in the
city and has been unloaded by County
Commissioner L. w. Hardy within the
past few days. This will be used on
the road, both the county and state
bearing a portion of the cost. The drag
is to remain in this county.
Owing to the fact that the Pensa-
cola Flomaton road is Al miles in
length. it will not be possible, with
the funds at hand, to repair the en-
tire stretch. However, a part of it
will be put into first class shape and
the balance placed in condition to
stand hard wear. Commissioner Hardy
says.
