In two open letters he denounces its subway contract \3 for the Manhattan and Bronx system as “a .” and protests docccccccccces nar disastrous wrong to the cit against its proposed contract for an East River tunnel as another and similar wrong. He points out that the Long Island Rail- % way Company within two years applied to the Municipal Assembly for substantially the same franchise, agreeing to build the tunnel along substantially the same route at its own ex- pense ‘‘ona franchise for fifty years, the tunnel to revert to the city as its sole property at the end of the term.” He asks why the Long Island Railway Company suddenly abandoned this plan, and finds the answer in the Rapid-Transit Commission’s plan, which he de- scribes as a plan— oo “DISASTROUS wrongs ‘ To construct this new tunnel railroad at the city’s expense, and dispose of it in advance to the contractor in the same way that the tunnel railroad in the boroughs of Manhattan and the Bronx was |‘ disposed of—t. e., not for the city to own and lease it when {t Is completed, but only after the expiration of a term of fifty or |‘ seventy-five years, during which it {8 to be conferred on a few favored indi- viduals for a mere pittance, and to their vast aggrandizement.
