MILLER PLAN HALLS
TROLLEY SUSPENSIONS
Garrison Sees Only Hope in
CoUernor's Idea.

AS a result of the proposal Of Gov.
Miller to the Legislature to reorganize
the machinery for handling New York q
transit problems il was reported yester-
day that there is prospect that addi-
-tional trolley lines viii not be suspended.
Lindley NJ. Garrison. receiver for the
Brooklyn Rapid Transit Company, had
predicted the day before that thirteen
more Brooklyn surface linea would have
to go out of business. The receiver
made no statement to the contrary yes
terday, but declared that Gov. Miller's
plan seemed the only hope for proper
solution of the transit problem.
Frank Hedley. head of the INTERIOR
oush. said he did not deem it proper for
him to comment on the Governors plan
Mr. Garrison issued the following
statement:
1T seems to me that the only hope
for proper solution of the traction
problem lies along the lines OF the Gov
ernor's message. Unless. as he sug-
gests a competent body of men, vested
with full authority and charged with full
responsibility. take this matter up and
give il the study that II requires and
reach n conclusion just to all concerned
do not see how II can ever be properly
settled.
The only opponents OF this sound
and sensible method OF treating this
business proposition (for that Is what ii
is) will come from those who seek per-
sonal and partisan advantage in pre-
venting Just and proper solution"

CAR LINE WINS POINT
AGAINST TRANSFERS
Temporary Order Issued to
59th~St. Crosstosun.

Judge Charles M. Hough in the United
States District Court granted yesterday
a temporary injunction asked for by the
Belt Line Railway Corporation against
Charles d. Newton, State Attorney
General: Alfred N. Barrett. Public Ser
vice Commissioner, and Edward Swami,
District Attorney, the effect of which is
to relieve the company from accepting
transfers on the Fifty ninth street cross
town line from passengers coming to IL
from other lines running north and
south
The order enjoins the officials from
enforcing the provisions of an order
passed by the Public Service Comnris-
sion in 1912. which fixed five cents as
the maximum joint rate of fares by all
lines in this city. excepting in so far as
the order provides for joint rates be-
tween the lines of the plaintiff and the
lines of the Third Avenue Railway Com
pany, the Forty-second Street Railway
Company and st. Nicholas Avenue Rail-
way Company.
With the granting of the Injunction,
Judge Hough filed an opinion in which
Commission refused to grant the cross
town company rehearing. the prelimi-
nary injunction is therefore in order.
He said the decision was limited to the
enjoning of the transfers complained OF

BANKERS FAVORABLE
TO GOV. MILLER'S PLANS
Traction Issues Slump After
Early Rise.

Bankers. operating officials and bond
dealers who handle traction securities
were inclined to look favorably on Gov
Millcr's plan for unification of the
traction system, as outlined In his mes
sage TO the Legislature.
The stock market paid but scant at
tention TO the message, and after a htful
burst OF speed at its opening the trac-
tion issues settled back into the dol
drums, and most OF them closed tho day
with slight losses. Traction bonds. how
ever. were, active and strong in the first
hour or so of trading. but. like traction
stocks. slumped IN the afternoon. Inter-
borough Rapid Transit refunding 5s were
particularly active and strong, selling
up TO 55M. against closing price of
54% on Monday. The three year per
cent. convertible notes OF the Brooklyn
Rapid Transit Company sold at AZ. an
advance OF 1 u points. Other changes In
securities OF the lines affected were frac-

people of the city of New York are de-
termined not to lose control OF their
own affairs.
His plan OF one company under a
new Public Service Commission is the
most daring suggestion as solution for
the transit situation in New York ever
