AWAY BEHIND THE TIMES
American Syndicate Proposes to Show John
Boil How to Run street Cars.

St Louis, Oct. 23.-The Republic this
morning says: A stupendous deal, in
yoiving a radical change in the pro-
prieto-ship and system OF operation OF
one of the most extensive street railway
properties in the world has been prac-
tfcally completed. An American syn
dica,e has. IL is said, secured control OF
the famous underground railways or
London, England The syndicate was
formed in Toronto, Canada Capitalists
from New York. Philadelphia and other
rites are also interested, and one or the
heaviest investors is stated TO be Well
known 81. Louis man, whose name, for
the present is withheld.
The precise amount of money called
for in order 70 capture the British prize
has not been ascertained, but it IS way
Up in the millions. as the underground
roads OF London have an enormous
capitalization and constitute a nlagnif-
cent property. Owing 10 the necessity
Of acquiring real estate, compensating
owners. and 10 the expense OF diverting
drainage. making tunnels, etc. the IN
derground roads averaged II many por-
tons a cost Of s., 900, 900 a mile. In or
der to properly appreciate the nagni-
tude OF this deal and the extent 10 which
It is illustrative OF American enterprise,
the present status of the underground
system Of the English metropolis must
De well understood. Unlike this coun-
try, Great Britain has. for years. been
at a stsldslin as regard means OF rapid
transit in cities. There are not a dozen
electric railroads in the country, not a
single cable railroad, and the highest
achievement in streets cars is, as a rule,
the horse tramway.
Toronto, Ont. Oct 23.-The story from
81. Louis Of a syndicate being formed
to secure the franchise OF an under
ground railway in London, England, was
shown 70 Superintendent Gum OF the
Toronto Street Railway company today.
He professad 10 know nothing OF such
a syndicate and as the president OF the
company. William Mckenzie, IS on his
way 70 England, nothing definite can
be learned. For some time the rumor
has been current that Mr.. Mckenzie was
Negotiating for the franchise Of an cleo
trio road II London and his present trip
across the ocean is believed TO be in con-
1ection With the project. He is already
Interested in the Birmingham. Ell gland.
Htreet railway company. The name
Ross McKinzie' is evidently a mis-
noner for Ross and Mckenzie both OF
whom are street railway magnates in
Toronto and St. Paul.
