ing season. in which each town along

string summer homes. it has been de-
cidcd to admit a limited number of

houses, and these advertisements will
be placed Immediately following the
reading matter relative to the town in
which they are located

lished u year ago and permit brief

change will be a gratifying one to
those who are anxious to secure some
of the increasing patronage along the
line.
The local ticket agent has been sup
piled with specimen pages from this
book, showing rates for advertising.

Tho regular meeting of the board Of
trade during the noon hour yesterday
developed more than the usual round or
important doings. The second special
committee appointed to settle the
street car strike reported failure and
was discharged: declarations We're
made against the new street railway
franchises in their present form; otli-
Gers for the coming year were nomin-
ated and n motion requesting the
members of the board to cease boy
cotting the street car company went to
the table after some interesting discus
sion.
AT the last meeting OF the board
when the special committee appointed
to settle the street car strike reported
that such Il thing was impossible Of
accomplishment at this time, John NJ
Kemmerer made the statement that if
the proper kind of committee was
appointed the strike could be settled in
three hours. Forthwith. Il member Of
the old committee moved and the board
with equal alacrity decreed that Mr.
Kemmerer and two others should be
delegated as d committee to settle the
strike.
Yesterday MIR. Kemmerer's special
committee was called upon for a re-
port. Mr.. Kemmerer arose and after
explaining that his remarks at the pre-
vious meeting were not intended as a
reflection on the preceding committee.
asked that his special committee be
discharged. as the work it had been
entrusted with was undertaken BY Il
committee Of citizens before his COM
mttee was in motion. The board, with
a subdued laugh, agreed to let the COM
mittee off.

THE NEW RAILWAY.

Under the head of new business, w.
Fl. Taylor brought up the matter of
the new railway franchises and sug-
gested that Il committee of three he
appointed to go before councils as rep
resentatives of the board and endeav-
or to get the ordinances put in a shape
that would make them more favora BILE
to the city.
j. Benjamin Dimmick questioned the
wisdom of placing so much power in
the hands of an uninstructcd commit
tee. The board had taken no position
in regard to the franchises and pos
sibly was not ready just at that time.
| he said, to declare itself. He believed
| it would be better to hold Il special
meeting in the course of a day or two
| at which the matter could be thrashed Il
| out and the committee given definite
| instructions.
| Colonel +. l.. Hitchcock viewed the
| matter in the same light as Mr.. DIM
! mick. To adopt Mr.. Taylor's susges-
| ton would be to create Il committee
| having no power or unlimited power.
| Mr.. Taylor again took the floor and
explained that he would have this COM
mittee protest against the franchises
| being granted in their present shape.
! The board is not concerned, he went on
| to say, about the legal aspect Of the
| franchises The city solicitor and 9TH
| er municipal officers are supposed to
look after that The one vital uues-
! ton about which the board should be
concerned, Mr.. Taylor thought. was
whether or not the city was to give
Il large something for Il little nothing.
OFFERS NOTHING.
| In the franchises, Mr.. Taylor went
on to say the company offers nothing
| specific except to pave between its
tracks on streets that the city will
| hereafter pave. The city has a right
to expect and demand more than this
for grant of more than fifty miles Of
| its streets for railway purposes. The
franchise ordinances are in line to pass
second and third readings in common
council next Thursday night. Some
action, he said, should be taken at
once to protest against the ordinances
! in their present form. II not prepared
| to act then, the board could meet to-
| day or tomorrow he said, to trash out
| the question.
| Mr.. Dimmick agreed with Mr.. Tay-
| lor that the city should receive Il sub
| Stuntial price for the franchises ana
favored Mr.. Taylor's suggestion.
| r. II. Dale put an end to the dis
| cussion by Introducing Il resolution de-
| claring that the board protested
against the passage of the ordinances
| in their present shape: that IL was
! against the granting of franchises in
perpetulty; that no franchise should be
| granted without Il valuable conSidera-
ton ana that a committee of three be
| appointed to urge the boards views on
| councils. The resolution WAS ununi-
| mously adopted.
When nominations of officers We're
announced to be in order. Captain W.
A. May nominated President j. \.
Lansing to succeed himself, and Il mo-
| ton to close the nominations was put
by Secretary Atherton and unani-
| mousy carried, before President
Lansing could make himself heard
