PASADENA, March 10-The city trus-
tees were In conference with E. C. Web
ster Of the Pasadena and Pacific electric
road this morning for considerable
time, but as to the outcome of the matter
they were not willing to speak at the
present time. Mr.. Webster says, how
ever, that it will be fixed at the next
meeting of the council, and he added
"When It is fixed there will be only one
electric road, the same as now" When
asked for further explanation he said,
EITHER 1t will be the present company
or else the Terminal will buy us out.
There is not room for two roads" Mr..
Webster Is persistent in his declara-
tion that IL the Terminal is allowed to
come into Pasadena in competition with
the Pasadena and Pacific 1t means ruin
to the latter road, but 1t is hard for the
public to see this when 1t is observed
that the cars are overcrowded all the
time and business always increases with
increased facilities.
