Foundation in Fact.
Those who are I'm a position TO know
deny that there is any intention Of at
tempting a. consolidation of the Richmond
Traction Company and the Boyd-NewtOn
Syndicate, except that the two will stand
together on all questions affecting the
Interests Of street car company as a
genus.
There are, OF course. a number Of mat
tiers upon which the two organizations
will stand together for mutual benefit,
such as taxation. trackage arrangements,
transfers and so on I'm these matters
their interests are Identical as has been
made manifest at the meetings Of the
Committee on Streets.
81 have no idea that there will ever be
such a thing as a consolidation OF the
two" said a prominent member OF the
Street Committee yesterday. 1T is
only upon such matters as taxes ana
transfers. which affect both equally that
they will come together.
Il am well satisfied that the Council is
not going 10 allow any one organization
TO control all the lines Of the city. UNI
