TO BUILD SUBNAYS That's Comptroller’s Plan if Private Companies Do Not Make Proposals. BELMONT ONLY BIDDER. Traction Magnate, Says City’s Finance Officer, Has Offered to Do the Work. Comptroller Metz was at his office early to-day ready to talk upon two subjects that were dear to his mind. He had been to Long Beach yesterday with Fire Commissioner O'Brien and made & full inspection of the hotel and cot. tages upon which the city has an option) to convert it into a home for conval- escents, On Saturday, with his exec tive scaff, he spent the afternoon in Brooklyn examining grade crossings and going over the routes of the proposed subways. “In my opinion,” he sid, speaking of the latter subject, “many of those pro- posed subwitys will never be butlt, al- though I believe all of them are needed. What bothers me is the delay. I think that all of the routes laid down by the Rapid Transit Board should be Advertised antl work begun at once, If there are no bidders for all or any of the routes the city should find-eway to go ahead with the work itself.

SEEKS A RECEIVERSHIP FOR A TRUST FUND. Trustee Says Income Is Ready, but Applicant Refuses to Sign Receipt for It. Wiliam Weil applied to Justice Amond to-day for the appointment of a receiver for the trust fund of $100,000 bequeathed as @ life interest to Mary Shelton Reed Wiggins. The money was left by the will of the late Chief Justoe Bingham R, Sheldon, of Illi- nols. Mrs, Wiggins resides at No, 20 West End avenue and was a niéce. George M. Burr, a banker, of Man- fstee, Mich,, is the trustee, and on his application for a recelver {t was al- leged $43,000 In interest had not been accounted for. 8. C, Millard, of Binghamton, opposed the application. He declared that under the trust clause of the will the income of the fund was to be paid only 0; Mrs. Wiggins'’s personal recelpt, and that a year ago she refused to receipt, since which the income has accu- mulating in the vaults of a New York trust company awaiting the lady's re- ceipt.

It was found that the thieves’ rene dezvous was the yards at Mountain View, and Deteotives Hughes, Consey, Dowling and Jenicke went from Jersey City yesterday to watch for them.

Some important speculative accounts were liquidated to-day because of’ the increasing strength and aggressiveness of the bear element. The effective attack on Reading has introduced into the stock market an element of weakness which the bull operators are striving to coun- teract. Generally speaking, the trend of the market !s upward, but the more cautious operators are unloading, in or- der that they may not be caught in any slump, even though it may be only temporary. It is the talk of the street to-day that James R. Keene managed the campaign against Reading. Mr. Keene has been an ardent bull on the United States Steels and some other ac- tive stocks, The alleged attempt of Mr, Kessler and hig friends to corner Read- ing Is said to have annoyed a very large banking interest to such an extent that Mr. Keene was asked to co-operate in thwarting Mr. Kessler’s plans. After Reading crossed 16) an effort was made by the would-be cognerers of this stock to “squeeze’’ Keene. The latter {s re- ported to have doubled his bear account around 160, He was amply protected, it is asserted, by the big banking inter- ests aforesaid, who happened to be able to supply Mr, Keene with all of the Reading stock that he required. It 1s not believed that this sharp bear cam- paign in Reading had any other pur- pose than to check its too rapid advance and prevent any possibility of effecting a “corner” in the common stock.
