MORE CARSTOMT. PLEASANT
Extension Of Lines Discussed by
the Citizens Association.
The Capital Traction and MetropOli-
tan Compa nies Said to Be Watch
ing Each Other Jeaiously.

The extension of the lines OF the Metro
poiitan and Capital Traction Street Rail
way aycompanscsthroughM Mount Pieasa mt was
the chief subject discussed at the meeting
of the Mount Pleasant Citizens Associa.
ton last evening. There was 4 fair attend
ance, and Vice President T. III H Harding was
in the chair.
The discussion Of the proposed extension
of their lines through Mount Pleasant by
the railway companies mentioned followed
the report of Mr.. Chaplin Brown. hartman
Of the committee on street railways. Mr..
Brown prefaced his report with thestatement
that it as understood between him and
President Somerviile that no formal Ie-
port would be submitted last evening. The
reason for this was that 1t was thought ad :
visable to wait until the bill relative to rail-
way extension in the northwest. was in.ro-
dnced In CoIer 1t happened, how
ever. that the bill was introduced yes terda >.
and provides for tie extension of the Capital
Traction Company slime nurtffUn Fourteenth
street to Howard avenue. thence west to
Seventeenth or Eighteenth streets, thence
south to Park street and back to Fourteenth
street. "
The point was raised that s,me time 70
the associa ton had favored the plan Of
extension proposed by the Metropolitan
Company and the question was sked which
roads proposition should be indorsed now.
The ineeting was not inclined to shuv
any preference, but WILL favor the road
that makes the Lost honest endeavor for
an early extension OF its lines for the accom-
mediation OF the travelling public of No INT
Pleasant. Sometime a gu 1t was said Ieith ,r
OF the railway compan seemed very
anxious to extend its lines, but now they ere
watching each other very jealousy.
Mr.. Nixon was opposed t the plan ,fcx-
tension suggested In the bill before Con
gress. and characterized it as "nigga.l.y
and prepOsteruus. He cannot understand
how some members of the association can
favor such 4 scheme, and was often ill.,
clined to believe that the associa ton is
an adjunct to the raiIroa companies.
Judge Campbell suggested that in the
event of either of the lines mentioned
extending their roads through Mount Pleas
ant that it be specially stipulated there
Shall be NJ parking of car in Mount Plea "a 1t
as is often the case on Fourteenth street.
On motion of Mr. walfort 1t was decided
