RAPID TRANSIT PROBLEMS.
Mr.. c. b. Thurston Discusses the City's
Needs and Possibilities

Mr. u u. IhursfOn Discusses the CttY's
Needs and Possibilities.
Mr.. Joseph A. Dear and the Board OF
Trade propose tomorrow night TO settle
the vexed question of Glow to make the
business section of Jersey City accessible
to all parts of the county by system Oh
rap i'd transit and transfers. =
In order that the public may obtain the
best information upon the subject, the
views are given below of a gentleman
who Will not be present at the meeting
tomorrow night and one who doubtless
knows more abont the subject than Mr..
Dear and all the Board of Trade put to-
gether
Mr. c. B. Thurston, president of the
Jersey City rand Begen Railroad, in speak
ing upon the question last evening said
that the best system of rapid transit avail
able In this city was undoubtedly use OF
electricity as a motive power. That was
the only thing within our reach, he said.
The grip cable system was altogether too
expensive for Jersey City.
The electric system, he continued. had
been adopted in Boston, st. Louis, Gin
cinnati and other leading cities. 1t was
spect the cable system was the only one
to equal 1t, but 1t was not subject to so
many Interruptions as the cable system,
which gave great deal of trouble last
winter. In extreme cold weather the slot
would contract so that the grip would
not slide IN 1t.
TRUE PLAN FOR RAPID TRANSIT.
Mr.. Thurston further said that the
only feasible plan of rapid transit was, of
course, an elevated railroad. A surface
road was subject to many delays. A
vehicle was always getting in tie way,
and the car had to be stopped until the
vehicle was moved off the tracks.
For surface rapid transit no system is
better than electricity, because the car
can be moved at high speed to make up
for lost time and can be stopped quicker
than when propelled by horses.
The only system of electricity which up
to the present time has proved success
is the overhead trollv system. Storage
batteries were not physical success. to
say nothing of their expense. They were
not good for climbing hills.
The Jersey City aud Bergen Company,
he said, had invited all the inventors of
storage systems to experiment on it's
road and have offered them every facility
Tor so doing. The company was about to
give the Gibson system a trial as already
mentioned in THE JERSEY CITY NEWS.
THE TRANSFER SYSTEM.
AS to the transfer system, Mr.. Thurs
ton said that his company had intro
duced the arrangement on its belt and
MONTGOMERY street lines. He declared
that the system there used was the best
in the business. 1t sought to give the
passengers the least annoyance and save
the company from being swindled. Even
now The company knew of instances
where people, and those who would be
least suspected OF such u thing, had got
ten on the car and claimed to have paid
their fare in the other cars ana to be
transfers. Still the company lost less
that way than it would by system of

when Joe came up to him Joe
was in a bad frame of mind
and he said something TO Johnny. What
