COMMISSIONERS DELAY.
BLOCKS TRANSIT WORK
Little Chance of Awarding of
Broad Street Contracts
'on April 3
. .
Oniclals of the Transit Department lr
tually have como to tho conclusion that,
unless heavy pressure Is brought to bear
upon tho Public Kcnlco Commission to end
Its dilatory tactlc-j there li little possibility
of Imlng Iho certificates of public con
cnlcnto for the nrlous lines of tho high
speed Bystem granted In tlmo to'awnrd tho
threo ISroad street subway contractH on
April 3, when bids nro scheduled to bo
opened,
Should tha commission continue. Its pro
gram of withholding authority lo proceed
with tho construction uoilc until nftcr that
date, It w mean that six separate con
tracts nro being held up Ulds for tho threo
sections of tho subway dclhery loop were
opened tho first week In February, but in
tho absence of authority from the commis
sion tho city was unnblo to award the
contract!).
On April 3 bids will bo opened for threo
Broad street subway contracts, which, taken
together, would mean the beginning of
work on nearly a nillo and a halt of this
high-speed line. These contracts, -together
with tho threo on tho loop, will Invohe an
expenditure of about $15,000,000.
The commission will meet In cxecutho
session In UnrrMmrg today, but It was
lrtually admitted this morning that transit
would not ho taken up A month ngo mem
bers of tho inmmlslon Indicated that no
action would bo laken until the matter of
a leaso for the- sstem had been nettled
Their position nt that time was that they
would not glc their nppioal to any propo
sition which. In lew of the many uncer
tainties ns to the leasing of tho lines, might
tlethe city's hands fluauclalh for cars.
Later, howeer. another public healng
was held In this city and subsequent to this
half of tho 'commission mado an Inspection
tour over lrtually the entire system At
that tlmo Is was learned th.it threo of the
six commissioners favored framing the cer
tificates at once and three faorcd delay.
A week ago, after tho last executive ses
sion of tho board. It was said that no fur
ther action would bo taken until Director
Twining either asked for a public hearing
upon the rel-cd cost estimates submitted
by him showing that the entlro system
would not cost $90,000,000, or submitted
additional figure") Miowimr tho cost to an
Independent operator to equip and place In
operation tho various lines
These figures the Director has prepared.
Ho had Intended to Include them in his re
port to Mayor Smith and not to submit
them to tho commission before tho report
was made public In tho hope, however,
of getting some action from the commis
sion, the Director will forward these fig
ures to ilarrlsburg within a day or two.
Tho estimates havo not been checked as
yet by Ford, Bacon & Davis, and It the
checking cannot be completed by tomorrow
night tho department wilt give the com
mission tho unchecked estimates with an
explanation of why they havo not been
checked nnd a statement that they are
substantially correct In tho opinion of Direc
tor Twining.
GERMANTOWN SALOON
' LICENSE RENEWED
Court Disregards Remonstrance of Su
perintendent of Whosoever
Mission
Judges Martin nnd Flniettcr, sitting today
as the License Court, renewed tho license
of , John 12. Henry, whose aloon Is at 1.1
12a'st Chelten avenue.
Thero was an emphatic remonstrance
from John Mclntjro. who Is superintendent
of tho Whosoever Mission, which Is only
one block away from Henry's saloon, while
Hemy's causa was bolsterod up by State
Senator Jenkins, who aided counsel for tho
defense, and two policemen from tho Oer
mantown station house, District Detective
McFarland and Street Sergeant nidrldge.
Superintendent Mclntyre said tho capac
ity of his mission was always exhausted
bv drunks coming from Henry's saloon.
Tho court, however, refused to believe
Henry's saloon should bo blamed for all
tho drunkenness In tho neighborhood. His
license was renewed, but he Had to promise
that he would eliminate, tho back room and
side entrance. A good deal of the trouble.
It was shown, came from viilte men drink
ing with negroes and ncgresses.
