LOOP CHICAGO UNDER GROUND.
Street Car Scheme, Which viii Cost
Over $4,000, 900.

Consulting Engineer George w.
Jackson has submitted to the Chicago
council committee on local transpor-
tation plans for an underground loop
system. They make 1t practicable and
serviceable to put in operation the one
fare streetcar proposal without the is
suing of transfers; render grade cross
ings at intersections unnecessary, en-
able cars from different divisions of
the city to be transferred to whatever
division they may be directed to; pro-
vide 10 foot walk for passengers to
go underground to any station desired;
give room for municipal utilities and
appliances for corporations operating
under license as well as for utilities
they may wish to install, leaving space
for future developments; take care of
present sewers and make provisions
for new sewer system in connection
with a high pressure water system.
The total length of the subway and
routes suggested is 50,7O2 lineal feet,
and the estimated cost is $1S,577,318.
The engineer says the subway can be
completed in 80 months.

There was rumor that Genera
