Mayor-Elect Snyder Departs
for San Francisco

The city council met in adjourned
session yesterday morning at 10:S0
o'clock, with President Teed in the chair
and all the members in attendance, with
the exception of Mr.. Snyder. A large
delegation Of East Siders was also pres
ent.
The matter of the extension of the
electric railroad franchise on Macy
street, the Mission road ard other streets
was taken up.
Councilman elect Nickel of the First
ward briefly addressed the council
against the proposed extension at this
time. There was no particular objection,
he said. against granting the extension
asked for, but 1t should be put on a strict
iy business basis There were still two
months in which they could work. Then,
II they showed they were acting in good
faith, they could rest assured that they
would receive fair treatment at the
hands of the new council. and any rea-
sonabie extension of time would be
granted.
Judge Sherman Page followed. He
covered the ground substantially the
same as at the East Side meeting. He
thought that the extension asked for
was not unreasonable. but the company
should give some evidence beyond It's
mere assertions that 1t intended to go
to work and build the road over the
streets covered by the franchise. But
the company he said, did not intend to
build the road on the lines covered by
the franchise. He made this positive
~
the other officers of the company to deny
1t. But they wanted some positive as
surance that they would act In good
faith and put down the road on the
streets covered by the franchise.
