With a view to acquiring the tract at Coney Island covered by tt ruins of Dreamland and adjacent resorts for a city owned public beach and park, as suggested by The Evening World the day after the fire, two weeks ago, the Board of Estimate to-day appointed. a committee, composed of Comptroller Prendergast, President of the Board of Alder- inen Mitchel and Borough President of Brooklyn Steers, to investigate and report on the plan. ‘The resolution calling for the ap ma fers, were engaged upon the crest of ment of the committee came the wall, The other ten victims were “result of the action of the Board of bricklayers, laborers and carpenters, Aldermen in Keven! working down below.

Philip Wattenderg, a contracting builder, has been putting up a row of three structurés, each to be three stories in helght, with stores on'the ground floor and living apartments above. The fronts were yet to be put in, but the sides, the back and the Inner walls had risen al- most to the level of the roof rafters, It {s supposed that recent rains weakened the masonry.

Why The Evening World's fight for a Coney five-cent fare has been won and cannot be turned jato a club to defeat the adoption of the McAneny subway report. A five-cent fare from Central Park to Coney Island ts provided for over the entire B. R. T. system proposed by the McAneny report, without equivocation. If there is any deficit on the Conoy Island line or on any other line between the cit~ and the company rned by the whole s: " 4s postponed until the deficit is ‘The Coney five-cent fare is further buttressed by the proposed guaranteo by the city of a sum equal to the present net earning of the four B.

T. retuse to accept the city's proposition and try to maintain the Coney 10-cent fare, that company is confronted with this alternative: Either the competition of a Couey five-cent fam by means of the ‘Triborough or independent subway from the Bronx to Coney Island, Or the competition of a similar low fare from the Bronx over Present and new lines of Interborough, which this company b Glready guarantoed.
