By Alderman Muh-

To the Honorable the Common Council of the City of New York : The petition of the Forty-second Street, Manhattanville and St. Nicholas Avenue Railway

Company respectfully shows : That your petitioner is and for many years has been a street surface rail bad corporation, owning,

operating and using a street surface railroad through, upon and along certain streets and avenues in the City of New York, among others the Boulevard. That your petitioner is a railroad corpora-tion organized on or about August 19, 1878, under the laws of the State of New York, for the pur-pose of owning, constructing, maintaining and operating street horse railroads for public use in the conveyance of persons and property for compensation in the City of New York.

That your petitioner has made and filed in each of the offices in which its certificate of incor-poration is filed a statement of the names and descriptions of the streets, roads and highways in and upon which it is proposed to construct, maintain and operate the extensions and branches herein applied for.

That your petitioner proposes to extend, construct, maintain and operate its said railroad upon and along the surface of the following streets or highways in the City of New York, viz. : Begin-ning at West Eighty-sixth street and the westerly side of Tenth avenue and running thence, with double tracks, through, upon and along West Eighty-sixth street to the easterly side of Eighth avenue.

That the said railroad proposed to be constructed, extended, maintained and operated by your petitioner as above set forth, is intended to be operated by horse power.

That this proposed extension of said railroad through said two blocks, from Tenth to Eighth avenue, will create one continuous line across the City of New York through Eighty-sixth street, as the railroad of your petitioner is already in operation through said Eighty-sixth street, from Tenth avenue to West End avenue, and tracks are laid on said !eighty-sixth street, from Eighth avenue easterly to Avenue A or the East river ; the only open space on said street, the construction of a railroad on which would enable a continuous line to be operated, being the said two blocks between Eighth and Tenth avenues, by which the line of the railroad of your petitioner is now interrupted.

Your petitioner further says, that there is an urgent public need for some means of public conveyance across the City of New York at Eighty-sixth street, or in that immediate vicinity,Las there is now no means of transportation between Fifty-ninth street on the south and One Hundred and Twenty-fifth street on the north ; and the east and west sides of the city, because of a lack of such facilities, are practically cut off one from the other ; and the extension contemplated by your petitioner would be a public convenience and is a necessity.

That the locality through which said railroad is proposed to be extended, for several blocks around, is fully settled and closely built upon, and the residents are subjected to daily inconvenience, because of the absence of such a road, and are in large numbers in favor of its construction.

That in the construction of such extension, your petitioner hereby offers, consents and agrees to charge only one fare over the line of your petitioner.

And your petioner further shows that, pursuant to the law of this State, it is necessary that your petitioner obtain the consent of the Common Council of the City of New York to enable your petitioner to construct, extend, maintain and operate the said proposed railroad.

Your petitioner therefore prays, and hereby makes application to the Common Council of the City of New York, for its consent and permission to be granted to your petitioner, its successors, lessees and assigns, for the construction, extension, maintenance and operation by your petitioner, its successors, lessees and assigns, of a street surface railroad for public use, in conveyance of persons and property, for compensation, through, upon and along the surface of the streets, avenues and highways, as above set forth and described, together with all necessary connections, switches, sid-ings, turn-outs, turn-tables and suitable stand for the convenient working of the said road, and for the accommodation of the cars which shall be run over the said railroad by your petitioner, its suc-cessors, lessees or assigns.

And your petitioner will ever pray, etc. Dated NEW YORK, August 3o, 1894.

Each estimate must contain the name and place of residence of the person making the same, the names of all persons interested with him therein, and if no other person be so interested, it shall distinctly state that fact. That it is made without any connection with any other person making an estimate for the same work, and is in all respects fair and without collusion or fraud. That no member of the Common Council, head of a department, chief of a bureau, deputy thereof, or clerk therein, or other officer of the Corporation, is directly or indirectly interested in the estimate, or in the work to which ft relates or in the profits thereof,

Each estimate must be verified by the oath, in writing, of the party making the same, that the several matters therein stated are true, and must be accompanied by the consent, in writing, of two householders or freeholders in the City of New York, to the effect that if the con-tract is awarded to the person making the estimate, they will, upon its being so awarded, become bound as his sureties for its faithful performance ; and that if he shall refuse or neglect to execute the same, they will pay to the Corporation any difference between the sum to which he would be entitled upon its completion and that which the Corporation may be obliged to pay to the person to whom the contract shall be awarded at any subsequent letting ; the amount to be calculated upon the estimated amount of the work by which the bids are tested.

The consent last above mentioned must be accom-panied by the oath or affirmation, in writing, of each of the persons signing the same, that he is a householder or freeholder in the City of New York, and is worth the amount of the security required for the completion of the contract, over and above all his debts of every nature, and over and above his liabilities as bail, surety, or otherwise, and that he has offered himself as surety in good faith, with the intention to execute the bond required by law.

No estimate will be considered unless accom-panied by either a certified check upon one of the State or National banks of the City of New York, drawn to the order of the Comptroller, or money, to the amount of five per centum of the amount of the security required for the faithful performance of the contract. Such check or money must NOT be inclosed in the sealed envelope containing the estimate, but must be handed to the officer or clerk of the Department who has charge of the estimate-box, and no estimate can be deposited in said box until such check or money has been examined by said officer or clerk and found to be correct. All such deposits, except that of the successful bidder, will be returned to the persons making the same, within three days after the contract is awarded. If the successful bidder shall refuse or neglect, within five days after notice that the contract has been awarded to him, to execute the same, the amount of the deposit made by him shall be forfeited to and retained by the City of New York, as liquidated damages for such neglect or refusal ; but if he shall execute the contract within the time aforesaid, the amount of the deposit will be re-turned to him.

THE COMMISSIONER OF PUBLIC WORKS RESERVES THE RIGHT TO REJECT ALL BIDS RECEIVED FOR ANY PARTICULAR WORK IF HE DEEMS IT FOR THE BEST INTERESTS OF THE CITY.

Blank forms of bid or estimate, the proper envelopes in which to inclose the same, the specifications and agreements, and any further information desired, can be obtained at Room z, No. 3x Chambers street.
