More than 100,000 workingmen of New York City are watching with the Closest interest and a starved longing the outcome of the city’s| subway negotiations with the Brook- lyn Rapid Transit Company. These | artisans are deeply interested, for the digging of the new subways means their bread and butter—their living, in fact—twelve principal trades and eleven subordinate trades boing direct benefictaries of the work | of excavation and station finish be- fore the new trains are in operation. As the city has to build its own rapid transit lines without any assistance from private capital, now that the In- terborough Rapid Transit Company has withdrawn from the fleld, these work- ing men cannot see why there should be any further delay on the part of the Public Service Commission in sending to the Board of Estimate and Appor- tionment the bids for the ‘Triborough or independent subway system, which the Commission received Oct. 27 last. Had the Interborough remained in the competition with {ts proposal of di- viding the cost of the new lines with the city, there might have been excuse, argue these workingmen, for the con- tinued holdup of the Triborough con- tracts by the commission, But as the People’s s Cry Is Is; “ We Don't Care Who| Gets the Privilege of Building if They'll Only Build.” Waterprooters . 4.60 1,000 Bricklayers 1 6.72 14,000 Hricklayers’ helpers . 8.50 6,000| Painters and decorators 4.50 9,990 Total men seeeees + 104,800 ‘That the city has an excellent propo | sition in the Triborough system, the construction of which can be started within twenty-four hours, 1s shown by the following carefully prepared ment of Chairman William R.
