MCARREN DEPUTY MAY QUIT POLICE, McAdoo Will Not Discuss Ques- tion of Haggerty’s Reported Resignation, Voluntary or En- forced. For the first time within the past week Police Commissioner McAdoo to-day re- fused to answer the direct question: ‘Has Deputy Commissioner Haggerty resigned or will he be asked to resign?" “I won't discuss that,” was all Com- missioner McAdoo would say. Haggerty's resignation rumored since the fight betwe Murphy, of T: any Hall, and Sen- ator McCarren assumed such serious proportions. He was McCarren's law partner and his personal appointee. Beckuse of his close relations with the been Leeder is | lanky Senator, who last night defeated Leader Murphy's attempt to oust him from are County politics, * ip now thought he will soon step down and out. Commissioner McAdoo announced at noon he had been advised that the Ap- pellate Division of the Supreme Court had decided that former Capt. John Reardon, of the Greenpoint avenue ata- tion, Brooklyn, had been tried unfairly last August. Capt. Reardon was brought up on oharges of being in « saloon while on the station-house blotter.

It was reported to-day that thy con- tract for the great Pennsylvania tunnel under the North River, Manhattan Isl- and and the East River had been let and that the O'Rourke Enel Construction Company were ful bidders, having undertaken the job for $20,000,000. When President O'Rourke, of the com- pany reported to have obtained the con- tract, was asked about it to-day he anid ‘that even if he were the lucky bidder he could not discuss the mat- ter, as there was a clause in the con- tract that forbade the contractor dis- cussing the Job, Mr, O'Rourke says he has no oficial confirmation of the awarding of the contract to hia company, but expects to be advised within a few houre. ‘The task that will be undertaken by the contractors will be the greatest tunnelling ever projected, as it presents some features never yet attempted by engineers, There are far longer tunnels under the Alps, but the diMoulties en- countered in those great enterprises are ‘as nothing to some of the problems presented in tunnelling under two great rivers and a city. ‘The tunnel to be buflt under the North River will be unique in its construotion, as it will have to be supported by « bridge structure beneath the subsoll of tho river, The tunnel jtselt will also be a marvel of engineering. bhai bi COCKRAN IN CONGRESS.
