Says 3-Cent Fare Will Pay.

New York and Philadelphia authorities are at present receiving the attention of Albert L. Johnson, the traction company promoter, who wants to introduce his 3-cent-fare system in both cities and connect them with a highgrade trolley service. Johnson will propose to the New York officials a plan to build tunnels under the East river and the narrows in order to carry passengers from the Philadelphia Electric railroad in to the heart of New York city and to build a new trolley system, connecting New York and Brooklyn, with 3-cent fares.
