TIMENT IS GROWING, | Bill Is Introduced to Repeal the Tax on Motor Vehicles. (Special from @ Staff Correspondent.) ALBANY, Feb, 7—Three Demo- cratic members of the Senate Com- mittee on the City of New York hold the balance of power on the question of disposing of the Ottinger- Ellenbogen bill, which seeks to take from the Board of Estimate the west side contract and turn tt over to the Public Service Commission. On a count of noses made in tho gommittes to-day the division was go close that Senators Foley, Sheridan and Wagner, from the Tammany camp, will halt disposition of the bill unless the Republicans change their present attitude, With Senator Milla excused be- cause his father happens to own a block of stock in the New York Cen- tral Railroad the Republicans are #o closely split that one vote will throw them one way or the other, The com- mittee can either report the bill to tie of the returns the bill, if reported, would pass the Senate, The #up- porters of the contract and the City Administration do not want the test made, During the hearing yosterday noth- ing of @ novel nature developed. Tho arguments were the same that had been made in all of the previous fights on the contract. There was not even a new attack upon tho Board of Estimate that bad the fla- vor of combat, Four elements In the Senate favor Senate or chloroform it. On the face | the Tammany members who think that an investigation may help dur- ing the coming city campaign, and, fourth, the elusive and, up to this undefined railroad influences that represent sucn roads as will not time, be in on the deal, There is a stronger sentiment in vor of a full investigation than has been shown in the Legislature before It has grown day by day un- til the casual observer begins to won+ der why the curlosity of the Legis- lature has reached such a pitch, The} influence of the action in the Logis« lature upon the city campaign is cut. ting much figure with the Democratic members of both Houses, They think that the proposed investigation will develop much material that ean. be used to ald a Tammany candidate for Mayot.

The concession was marred by a threat from the majority leader of the Senate, Elon R, Brown, who sald that the motor trucks did far more dam- ome than the ammount of the tax levied and that the Legislature would in- crease the tax next year if the owners persisted In their fight.
