Pending Tunnel Building. OPPONENTS CITE. STATUTES, Declare Law Prevents P. S. Board From Abandoning Ashland Place Section.

The announcement, made exclusively in yesterday's Eagle, that an official report would soon be submitted to the Public Service Commission, advocating a partial change of route for the Fourth avenue subway, has caused a notable sensation. Of the hundreds of prominent Brooklynites actively interested in subway development. some favor the con- templated shift, while others argue that to abandon the Ashland place, Fulton street. Flatbush avenue extension and Manhattan Bridge sections of the South Brooklyn tunnel, and, instead. to turn the road down Atlantic avenue and have it approach Manhattan by a tube leading from the foot of Atlantic avenue to the Battery Park, would involve a delay which would postpone for perhaps a year the completion of the entire subway.

It was learned to-day, however, that the official who is formally to suggest the change has taken Into consideration that it would require considerably more time 10 construct a tunnel under the East River than to build the road according to present plans, and he has worked out a temporary substitute that, in his opinion, would permit the subway being placed in operation just as quickly under the changed route is 1f the original route were followed. "There is 110 intention." said the official to a reporter for The Eagle this morning. "of abandoning the tunnel under the Flatbush avenue extension. That tunnel will be necessary for the Broadway-La-1 fayette avenue loop line, and for the Eastern Parkway subway. even should the Fourth avenue road proceed to Manhattan by another route.

How Delay Could Be Avoided. "If it should be deemed wise to turn the Fourth avenue road down Atlantic avenue, it would, therefore, merely be necessary to find a way of connecting the end of the Fourth avenue section proper. at Atlantic avenue, with the tunnel now building under the Flatbush avenue extension, and to run the Fourth avenue trains over this temporary line until the tunnel from the foot of Atlantic avenue to the Battery shall have been finished. And such a physical connection already exists. Flatbush avenue the present Interborough subway contains six tracks.

Or these five are on the so-called 'first while the sixth is underneath. on the 'second Except at the terminal at the Long Island Railroad Station, only tWo of these six tracks are used by the Interborough. It is true that the Interborough controls, by lease, the remaining four tracks. and it is probably true that the Interborpugh would ask a very high rental for their use by a rival road. the other hand, the city possesses the right to condemn.

By special act, as many of the unused tracks in the Interborough subway under Flatbush avenue as were needed as a temporary connecting link for the Fourth avenue subway could be condemned, and the Fourth avenue subway trains could be run from Fourth and Atlantic avenues over these tracks, through the Flatbush avenue extension tunnel and over the Manhattan Bridge into Manhattan, until the Battery tube should have been completed. Then the trains could be diverted to the Atlantic avenue- Battery tunnel route, thus relieving the congestion on the Manhattan Bridge and leaving it free for the use of the loop and Eastern parkway subway trains." Say Statutes Prevent Any Change. Opponents to any change of route in the case of the Fourth Avenue Subway pointed out two provisions in the Rapid Transit Act, to-day, which, they declared, would operate to prevent the abandonment of the Ashland place and Fulton street sections of the route. The Arst of these provisions is found in Section 26 of the Rapid Transit Act, and reads as follows: "The Public Service Commission shall, prior to the time of the final grant of franchise under the provisions of any this act, or the making of a contract for the construction of any railroad under the provisions of this act, have power to rescind and revoke any resolution. or resolutions, of such commission, or its predecessors, adopting any routes or gen- eral plan for a rapid transit railroad adopted by such commission, or its prede- cessors, and, in the discretion of such commission.

in lieu thereof to adopt new routes and a general plan." In the opinion of those who cited this provision of the law. the fact that such authority to change was conferred "prior to the time of the final grant" unquestionably meant that the commission had no power to alter a route after the "Anal grant and the making of a contract for construction" had been made, as in the case of the Fourth avenue subway. As strengthening this contention, opponents of the suggested change pointed to Section 6. Sub-division 2, of the Rapid Transit Act, which reads: "The commission may from time to time alter such detailed plans and specime fications, but always 80 that the same shall accord with the general plan of construction; but whenever a contract shall have been made, for the construetion of any railroad herein provided for, no such alteration shall be made by commission without the consent of the contractor and his sureties." Those who cited this last provision declared that by no stretch of the imagination could such a change of route as has been suggested for the Fourth avenue subway be construed as being in accord with the general plan. of construction.

Furthermore, they raised the question of consent. Sureties May Object. It is said that William Bradley, contractor for those sections of the Fourth avenue subway which the alternative plan would result in having abandoned. is not averse to the shift. The law, however, specifically states, so it was declared.

that the consent of the sureties must be secured. and there were many to-day who thought that at least one of Contractor Bradley's sureties would oppose the abandonment of the Ashland place and Fulton street sections of the Fourth avenue subway. Mr. Bradley's sureties are the Empire State Surety Company, the Title Guarantee and Surety Company, the People's Surety Company of New York. and the Massachusetts Bonding and Insurance Company.

Prominent in the board of directors of the Empire State Surety Company is Frank Bailey. It is under stood by Mr. Bailey's friends that he is vigorously opposed to any change of route in the case of the Fourth avenue subway, though Mr. Bailey has emphatIcally and broadly denied that the Realty Associates, of which he is president, is extensively interested, directly or indirectly, in any property on either Fulton street or Ashland place, which the city must acquire if the original route of the Fourth avenue subway is followed. As a director and a power in the Empire State Surety Company, friends of Mr.

Bailey say, he could exert enough influence to prevent that company from giving its consent to a change of plans in the sections for which Mr. Bradley has the contracts. with the result that, unden the law, the Fablic Service Board would And it Impesalble, even' ghouid It 80 desire, te change the route, Commissioners Are Retleent. None of the members of the Public Service Commission would diseuse the proposed change of route for the Pourth avenue subwAy for publication to-day.

The Two Had Not Been on Speaking Terms Since Their Clash Two Months Ago. Eagle Bureau, 608 Fourteenth Street. Washington, May 18-Paymaster General Rogers of the Navy has decided to end the "intolerable" relationg between himself and Secretary Meyer by going on the retired list.

He has sent word to Secretary Meyer that he is willing to be retired. This is acceptable to the secretary, and, in the course of the next few weeks the paymaster general's resignation will be accepted. It is the present intention to appoint Pay Director Thomas J. Cowie as paymaster general. Cowie is well liked in Congress through his connection with past legislation for the navy.

Mr. Meyer is weak with members of the Senate and House, and it is thought that Cowle's appointment will aid the secretary in obtaining Congressional approval for his legislation. The published announcement that master General Rogers is to "resign" turns out to be not quite correct. He will not resign his present place unless it is coupled with an order for his retire. ment.

He is eligible for retirement under the thirty years service law. Mr. Meyer and Mr. Rogers have not been on speaking terms since a clash in the Secretarys office about two months ago, when he ordered Mr. Rogers to get out.

When the Secretary told the Naval Committee last week that his paymaster general was "insubordinate the latter determined to quit. The strain of the anomalous position had been wearing on him. and has been exceedingly Irksome to the Secretary. Both recognized that it could not continue. The Secretary received word several days ago that the paymaster general would retire on any date that Mr.

Meyer might name. The message also stated that in the interim Mr. Rogers would be glad to co-operate in any way possible with the Secretary to install the latters methods in the paymaster generals office. This was taken by Mr. Meyer as a surrender.

The President approves of this plan and has along backed up his Cabinet officer. It is learned, however. that Paymaster General Rogers will not resign his present post and accept duty elsewhere. When he quits it is to go on the retired list with his present rank and threequarters pay. The determination of Secretary Meyer to have a change in the paymaster generalship was strengthened the other day by a report of an expert accountant.

whom he had engaged to examine Mr. Rogers' office. The accountant declared that under the methods in practice. it is impossible to strike a trial balance. After Paymaster General Rogers retires there will be a thorough reorganization of the personnel of the office.

The retirement of Paymaster General Rogers was not unexpected at the Brooklyn Nary Yard. Considerable comment was passed on it to-day. Paymasters Reah Frazer and E. C. Tobey are the officers at the yard who have been spoken of to succeed Mr.

Rogers. but it 18 thought their chances are slim. Paymaster T. W. Leutze, son of commandant.

PROMINENT MEN TO AID. Many Well-Known Citizens Named on Committee to Arrange for Suitable and Harmless Celebration. Borough President Steers feels that there should be other ways of celebrating the "Glorious Fourth" without making the day bideous with noise and filling the hospitals with maimed and crippled boys: and girls, and while he does not think that the use of explosives can entirely be dispensed with, he is hopeful that a plan may be devised by which the Borough of will be free from a great deal Brooklyn of this kind of celebrating when the holiday arrives.

With this end in view. the Borough President has decided that a great deal of good may be accomplished by a committee of Influential citizens who can arrange entertainments of a patriotic Dature that will keep the children interested and prevent a great many accidents. This morning he made the following announcement of his plan, which is in line with the campaign for a sane Fourth which The Eagle has been conducting: account of large number of accidents attending the the Fourth of July celebrations, it appears to me that the time has come for making a change in the method of celebrating our national holiday. therefore, have appointed committee of citizens who hold similar views, with the hope that this commitwill arrange programmes for the chiltee dren throughout the borough of a patriotic and educational character. I do not anticipate that the use of fire crackers and torpedoes, and other forms of firewhich have 80 long delighted the works, juvenile mind, will be entirely dispensed with, but I trust that the use of explosives will be SO confined and placed in the hands of adults that the fatalities this year's celebration will fall attending greatly below that of previous years.

"The natal day of the republic should something more in the minds of stand for our young people than a fire-breeding and noise-producing festival, and I think it is possible with a little forethought and to devise programmes which, preparation it carried out in the several sections of borough, will be productive of an inour creased sense of patriotism and national pride among the rising generation. therefore appoint the following restdents of Brooklyn as a committee to vise such programme and to lay out the districts in which the exercises shall be held, and in their judgment to add to their number or local committees: General George W.

A fight in a moving picture place at 661 Third avenue brought Philip Speigel, connected with the show, to the Fifth avenue police court as a prisoner today.

He was charged with felonious sault. The complainant, Joseph Dobson. a laborer. living at 180 Sixteenth street. appeared with his head bandages, and told Magistrate Geismar that Speigel had struck him with "a blunt instrument." inflicting a scalp wound.

Speigel also bore marks of battle, the principal one being a discoloration u- der one of his eyes. His story of the trouble was that the complainant. accompanied by several other men, tried to enter the "theater" without going through the formality of paying the price of admission. Whereupon, Speigel explained, it was necessary to eject those he termed "deadheads." As for feloniously assaulting Dobson, Speigel denied it. Magistrate Geismar held Sneigel in $500 bail for a hearing on May 24.
