WANT MORE TROLLEYS.
Opposition IN Westchester Gradually
Being OUercome.

Since the New-York. New-Haven and Hartford
Railroad acquired the New-York and Stamford
trolley system its agents have been quietly at work
obtaining rights OF way. It IS longer a
secret that a trolley extension is being planned
which when completed will connect Port Chester
and Rye Beach with the county seat at White
Plains and shorten the time between these places
least half hour As it is now the people
travelling between these places compelled to go
seven miles of the way to Mamaroneck and
make a change of cars. Often long delays are
caused by the poor connections made by the cars.
The trolley company is trying 10 overcome the
opposition OF the larger property owners which for
several years, has blocked the extension, by adopt
ing the plan advocated by The Tribune at the time
of it's agitation OF the Westchester trolley question
several years ago. Instead of demanding the use
of the public highways they offer to build the
tracks through private right of way over a large
rison and White Plains II is understood that
director OF the Network, w-Haven and Hart
ford Railroad corporation, has given the company
strip thirty feet wide of his entire estate.
and that similar arrangements may be made with
other property owners 1t IS also proposed to make
the extension double track road which will admit
of an uninterrupted high speed schedule. Other pri
vate right Of way is being acquired in White
Plains which will bring the extension 10 a point
where connection be made with the Union
Railway for Tarrytowu and the Hudson River
towns
