WILL EXTEND DOUBLE TRACKS.

W III I'm IIIlNIJ IDN IDIlII ITN4hN1IN17'
The Tribune has been reliably In
formed that the Scranton Railway com"
pany will extend their double tracks
on South Main avenue from Washburn
street To the city line in Bellevue this
year. The work will be commenced
some time in April and will be pushed
to completion without delay. The COM
pany will improve the roadbed and give
the residents of the lower end of West
Scranton better service than was pos"
sible heretofore.
The double tracks on South Main
avenue, between Jackson and Wash
burn streets, are a big Improvement
and the contemplated change will prove
very beneficial to the residents OF the
Fifteenth and Sixth wards in the upper
districts.
