The Interborough Rapid Transit Company was notified to-day that It had not complied with an order of the Public Service Commission of March §, which called for an itemized state- ment of the “suspense account” of dual subway construction and in which are tucked away the $150,000 bonus paid to President Theodore P.

(Special From a Staff Correspondent of The Evening World.) ALBANY, March 30.—The amend- ment to the Child Weitare bill, to take away from the Charities Department control over widowed mothers’ pen- sions, is making rapid progress and will be passed through both Houses early next week. In the Senate yesterday unusual as- sistance was given to the measure when without @ dissenting voice tt was reported from the floor and jeity naturally would have to equally |share the financial burden with the Interborough, If they were charged 0 operating expenses, the Interbor- ough would have to foot the bill, But there is nothing in the elab- orate system of bookkeeping to show just what became of the mysterious bonus amounts, An expert bookkeep- er from the Public Service Commis- sion has gone carefully over the pho- tographic duplicates of the Interbor- ough’s accounts, Totals are shown everywhere, but there is nothing to indicate just how these totals have been arrived at. ‘Therefore there is nothing to show whether the bonuses have already been included in the $1,906,663.94 charged to other accounts than the suspense account, $577,222.87 amount. or is still in ‘the the of undetermined ‘8 a buried ace in that set of ages,” said one of the Commissioners after r the Interborough'’s ac- counts. “We're going to find it.
