RAPID TRANSIT NEAR.
A General Extension of the
Electric System and
Cheaper Fares in
Prospect.

cheaper fares In Jersey City are bright.
President Thurston. of the jersey City
and Bergen Railroad, said today that the
transfer tickets. which were print
ed last winter, would be put into
use in few days. They would
have been issued before this
but for the introduction of bill by AS
semblyman Ditmar to force the com pany
to issue them. The negotiations for the
sale of the road were not without weight
in causing the delay. President Thurs
ton said he had no information that the
sale of the majority of the stock Of the
Jersey City and Bergen lines to John y.
Crimmins' syndicate would not take
place as announced But he
expects that his plans for cheaper
fares and the extension of the trolley sys-
tenn will be carried out When the COM
pany purchased its electric power plant
it contemplated a general introduction OF
electricity as the motive power. The
plant was constructed with this view.
The Montgomery street electric Iaaaic

company will next introduce the electric
system on the Belt line and the Green
vile routes when the consent of property
owners is given, and the Lafayette Jigger
line will be propelled by electricity, II the
