If the council pays MI. Agen's bill

LOADED WITH KICKS.

The Committee Met, but Mr..
Lowry Was Detained.
i. Members of the special committees on
street railway matters from the COM
mon council and chamber of commerce
met yesterday morning. 1t was expect
ed MI. Lowry would be present, but
Chairman Wolterstorff read note dated
Sept %, in which the railway magnate
stated it would be impossible for MIN to
attend as requested. He further in
formed Mr.. Wolterstorff in the
note that he would notify the
COMMITTEES the earliest date at
which he could meet them.
After some general talk on the situation
the meeting adjourned subject to cali
OF the chairman. A delegation from
Dayton's bluff, headed by Aid. thinner
man, was in attendance, as were
Messrs. Merrill, McKibbin, A. II. Lin
deke, Williams and c. w. Hackett, from
the chamber of commerce. Mr.. Merrill
said he had seen Mr.. Lowry and had
some talk with him, but nothing def
mite had come of the interview. Mr..
WolterstOrff called attention to the yery
poor service on the Lafayette line, which
he said was one of the best paying lines
in the city. The cars were crowded at
every trip, and this was caused by the
taking oil of some OF the cars on the
line.
