CITY MAY DOTHEVOBK Mayor Seems to Favor Building Subways in Sections. Mayor McCleUan «rill make no further move in the dirfction of building new subways until the fate of the public utilities bill is known. If the bill should fall to pass, probably at an early day the Mayor and others in the Rapid Transit Commission will take up anew the project of build ing one of the proposed new subways, and it is believed that the Mayor will favor the building of a section at a time, going as far each year as the city's purse will permit, rather than a surrender to the dictation of the Interborough- Metropolitan interests. The subway situation resolves itself into a Question of money. The city at the present time has a debt incurring margin of less than |40.000. 000 On July 1. when the assessments on real estate become a fixed and legal quantity, the margin will ho Increased to about $88,000,000. By that time there will need to be a new bond Issue of perhaps $25,000,000. Probably by ex ercising economy, the city could segregate $25, 000.000 for subway purposes this year. That does not cut much of a figure in municipal con struction of subways. The chief engineer of the Rapid Transit Commission estimates that one subway, with four tracks, will cost in the neigh borhood of $50,000,000, not Including the equip ment. •'The only thing that we could do," said the Mayor yesterday, "would be to build a section of a subway at a time. What we need to do. if we go Into municipal construction, is to build both an east and west side subway of four tracks each. That means an expenditure of $150,0U0.00U. The question may be asked, Why two? The answer is that if the city builds at all it cannot build extensions to the Interborough system. It must ■ buli*] Independently, and if it does that the peo pit living on either side of town nave equal claims for consideration. Tin- [nterborough peo ple, already controlling the existing subway, could greatly increase their capacity by extend ing their system north from -IL'.i street In Lex ington avenue and south in Seventh avenue. The city must build independently, if at all. of the Imerborough. With a debt margin of only *'■'■•>.- UOO.OOO to $10,000,000. it goes without saying that we could not go far. "It lias been suggested that we might build a section of a subway this year, choosing as the first section the most difficult part to build, and thus get started on the work. Perhaps that is •-:- best thing that could be done. I do not j j-ee anything in the public utilities bill to help oat our finances. Some people seem to believe "hat the millennium will dawn at the passage of that 111. As I said before. I fall to discover anything In it that will increase our debt In curring capacity. "Mr. Starin made an interesting suggestion to the Interborough when he said that they could rot hope to get more elevated tracks unless they would furnish their own capital for the new Eubways. I n"tue that Mr. Shonta Bays tlie company will not do it. Assuming that he means what he says. it leaves us without imme diate hope of subways. Sixty days after the public utilities bill becomes a law we will be empowered to build subways." PAVING TESTS WEAK. Engineer Says Block Significations Were Prepared by "Manufacturer. <)tto H.

SATURDAY MAY HANSON THREATENS "CLEAN-UP." Says He Will Transfer Every Man in Oak Street Station. • Deputy Commissioner Hanson said yesterday that he would transfer every man out of the Oak street police station. This statement was the result of testimony at the trial of Patrolmen Eugene Z. Clinton. Frederick T. linger and Christopher T. Fitzgerald, charged with assault ins: Patrolman Stephen S. Walsh, in the reserve room of the Oak street station on the night of April 11. Walsh testified that Patrolman Clinton threat ened to "make a case for the undertaker" out of him. He said that another policeman had previously threatened to shoot him, and that when he had presented an affidavit on this to Captain Walling:, the captain burned the paper. At this point Commissioner Hanson leaped to his feet. Banging the desk he shouted: "I'll see that there is a cleaning out of this Oak street station. I'll see that every man Is transferred out of there." During the hearing, L. J. Grant, counsel for the accused patrolmen, said Commissioner Han son was suggesting answers to Patrolman Walsh. Then Mr. Hanson ordered a policeman to throw Mr. Grant out of the room, but the latter said he would make trouble If this was done. Peace was made finally, and the hearing was adjourned until 11 o'clock this morning. DIDN'T KNOW HOW TO FLIRT Magistrate Discharged Prisoner Gathered in by Zealous New Patrolman.

Yield to Dr. WyUe and Give Up Jobs as Quarry men. From cave dwelling to their homes en the upper Weal Side returned, yesterday afternoon, John Mc- Willlams Wylie, the fifteen-year-old son of the Rev. Dr. David G. Wylie, of the Scotch Presbyterian Church, and Sylvester Gutelius, son of William H. Gutellus, a newspaper broker, of No. 355 Central Park West. The erstwhile cave men, or cave boys, did not willingly leave their subterranean retreat in a mountainside near Millville, Perm.. but they came back at the earnest persuasion of Dr. Wylie. who had been told of their whereabouts by the Mlilrift postmaster after they had been absent since a week ago yesterday. - The wanderers returned with Dr. Wylie to his parsonage at No. 10 West 96th street yesterday afternoon. As they walked into the parsonage with him and his eldest son. David, as an escort, they were greeted by cries of admiration from the two servant girls. "Oh. the darlln" brave boys." shouted one girl. But Dr. Wylie raised a hand in protest, and. with what looked suspiciously like a smile, said: "These runaways will think they're heroes if you talk that way." Both boys were tanned a glowing brown, and seemed to have so # me difficulty In not exulting over their feat. "It was great," said young Wylie at the first question. Then he stopped and said, with an air of regret, "Of course, it would have been lota bet ter If father and Dave hadn't come to take us away. Why, we would have gone to work in the stone quarry next week. We were just- getting ,i good rest from studying and reciting, and we were reeling fit to take the.

'Dun's Re> lew" say.-: Spring retail trade is backward because of the unusually late season, and tardy distribution of merchandise Is also causing complaint of delay In mercantile collections. but there Is confidence that most of the postponed business will be made up when thermal conditions become normal. Dealers purchased freely from manufacturers In anticipa tion of it record breaking season, and deliveries art* Mill coming from the mills and factories, shipments being facilitated by Improved trallic conditions. Movement of grain Is also liberal, attractive prices bringing out farm reserves, and the heavy freight business Is shown by railway earnings thus far re ported for April U. 2 per cent larger than a year ago. Manufacturers are active In all leading Indus tries, most plants being operated full time, anil the outlook In the st.-<-l business could hardly be bright er. Projected building operations promise a *'«"! demand for all materials, but numerous small labor disputes retard activity In this department. Other controversies over wages and hours are not exten sive or alarming. Crops are late In many sections because of cold weather, and prices of wheat and cotton advanced sharply. Much depends upon fut ure temperature, a few weeks of favorable condi tions often regaining early losses, but there la a disposition In the trade to reduce former estimates of the winter wheat yield very materially, For eign commerce for the last week showed gains of )2,<M3,06tJ In exports and .365,961 in imports, as compared with last year's movement. Money ruled easy and securities tended higher In response to many favorable reports of earnings, notably Steel and 'Erie, but a reaction followed statements of damage to the crops, and there was little net change. Hank exchanges at New York for the week were 24.2 per cent less than a year ago. chiefly because of smaller sales of securities at an average decline of about 10 per cent In price, and the week also contained one loss day of monthly settlements. At other leading cities there was an average gain of 6.5 per cent.
