\ \ oe -- ACCUSES OLD |, DOCK BOARDS, The New York Steam Com. pany Says It Has Been Grossly Defrauded, PROMISED A BULKHEAD, t But, It Is Alleged, Another Party Was Secretly Put in Possession. PRESENT BOARD IS SHOCKED. ma It We to an Expense of More than a Million, The Company © '. a Put . C. Andrews, President of the New York Steam Company, appeared before Mayor Bircng's Reform Dock Com- missioners to-day and made the sweep- ing statement that former Dock Boards had cheated them for fourteen years. His company made a formal applica- tion to lease the bulkheads between new piers 24 and 2%, North River, for tho reception of coal. He said his company consumed about 1,000 tons of coal per day, and it was necessary that it have a bulkhead contiguous to Its plant. The Morgan Steamship line also showed that the business of the company necessitated the use of the bulkhead in question. President Andrews said that for years his company had been promised the lease of the bulkhead at the foot of Dey street by former Boards. It was the in- tention to construct an underground system for the transfortation of the coal to the plant and with that end in view had purchased property to the value of $1,300,000. But all of the Boards, he safd, failed to keep their promises and the prop- erty 1t had purchased was practic- ally worthless. He said there was vacant wharfage between the piers leased by the Ameri- can line and John H. Starin which he had tried to le but neither of the lessees would part with it, Chief Engineer Greene acknowledged that it was alwayr understood that the New York Steam Company was to have the lease of the bulkhead at the foot of Dey street and that the old Board had leased it without affording the company an opportunity to bid on It. President O'Brien said he was greatly surprised that the old Board would lease property tu one person without giving another an opportunity to bid on ft when {ts' members knew the other “was anxious to possess it. He thought a great injustice had been @one the New York Steam Company by such action and that it was also a loss to the city. ‘The Board laid the matter over for a ‘week. DOCKS QUERY MONDAY.
