ANOTHER CAR.
1t is learned with good authority that
| the Passenger and Power Company VIII
! run another car on Hull Street to-mor-
row. They were reported yesterday for
reckless running. ] is thought by some
| that this will force them to take the car
| from lower Hull and put it on the main
! line.
BUSINESS MEN.
| The executive committee of he Bus
| mess Mems Association met last night
| and adopted resolutions which they will
| present to the body at their next meet
| ing for approval. The association is now
| in a good condition and bids fair to mold
| SO through the winter. Through the sum-
| mer the meetings were very irregular,
J but now a good amount OF enthusiasm
! has been instilled in the members, and
| every meeting is we'll attended.
| MUST RUN MORE SLOWLY.
/ The Richmond Passenger and Power
| Company were cautioned yesterday
| against running their cars too fast ;,nc
! too far apart. Since the company placed
| a car on Hull Street. below Seventh, they
| have not been maintaining as good
! SCncOulc as was Ill effect DeIolC tiic
! change. The men have to run from
! Swansboro to Seventh and Broad in forty
| minutes. This can be made when the
! travel is light but as the people arc 60
| ing to and coming from work some OF
| the cars get as much as fifteen minutes
| late; this causes the motormen to run
| fast and seemingly recklessly. in order
! to make the lost time UP. Captain
| Lipscomb said yesterday that a better
( schedule had to be maintained. AS the
| car on Hull below Seventh is not justify
| ing the company in keeping it running
they will very likely take it off and place
| it on the main line c2ain.
