SERVICE WAS EVEN WORSE
CAR COMPANY SAID TO HAVE IG-
NORED CITY RESOLUTION.

Yesterday was the time for the resolu-
ton calling for a five minutes schedule
at certain hours on the Interurban line
to go into effect. but patrons contend
that it was ignored to the extent that the
service was even worse.
Inc conductors on the cars corroborated
the rumor that no new time card had
been issued, and were unable to state
when one would be. The Harrington,
Gaultier and Marion crossings, ON Uni
verstty avenue, at the early morning
hours, were crowded as usual with walt
Ing people, and much adverse comment
was indulged in at several cars whizzed
by and refused to answer to their sig
nal to stop.
At the meeting Of the streets commit
tee Of the board Of aldermen Wednes-
day, Supt. Smith of the car line, who
was present, said the service on Univer-
sity avenue had been greatly bettered
of late and that the cars were at time
running at intervals Of less than five
minutes
Should the resolution continue to be
ignored the matter will receive the at
tention of the next board meeting, as
