CITY'S PURCHASE
OF OLD FERRIES
MENACE TO LIFE
onion Co.'S Antiquated Boats
Called Unsafe by a
Shipping Expert.

\fter II Years Efforts Con-
Germ May "Unload" on
Municipality.

Nearly twelve years ago the Unicn
Ferry Company made a desperate but
vain attempt to sell its ferrybo&ts to
the city. 1t is now within close reach
Of success If the offer of Grover Wha-
len, Commissioner of Plant and
Structures, Is sanctioned by the
Board Of Aldermen. The Committee on
Public Letting of the Board of Alder
men, as told in yesterdays Evening
World, has already approved IF the
offer involving a purchase price o.
S350,O00 for nine old and mostly an
tiduated ferryboats. In addition the
city officials plan to spend 100000 in
overhauling them.
Years ago the Union Ferry Com
pany, operating Ave ferries between
Manhattan and Brooklyn, was q
profitable concern. 1t paid what WIS
then considered the good dividend
Of per cent. on its $1,000, 600 cap
tai stock. But its decline as a dlvl-
dend payer began when trolley lines
were established on Brooklyn Bird 70.
Trolley competition took away mill
ions of its passengers.
When, in 1905, the city was press
ing for payment OF certain franchi -
claims, the Union Ferry Conpa ~
notified the city that if these were not
adjusted it would cease operating the
cerrles.
The company in the last three
years of its lease suffered greatly" II
wrote, "the Fulton Ferry especially
so; from 1891 to 1898 this ferry car
rled about 100000 passengers year
ly. but in 1898, by reason OF the troll
leys crossing the bridge, this number
dropped to 100000 and steadily de-
creased thereafter. and In 1901 less
than 100000 were carried; while last
year only 3,S0O,OOO were carried. The
Catherine and Wall Street Ferries
also suffered, with no corresponding
decrease in operating expenses"
The city made new franchise terms
based upon a basis of , per cent. ot
the gross receipts.
