Ii Is understood that the committee OF the
council and the mayor waited on the Of
hcials OF the Omaha e. Council BLUFFS Street
Railway company Tuesday afternoon and
obtained an agreement with them regard
ing the northern terminus of the Fort
Crook line. Al Powell and a number Of the
business men Of the city have been work
ing all summer 10 get the company TO agree
10 make the northern terminal al street,
South Omaha. The company agreed TO the
proposition, but Il was found necessary for
the council to pass an ordinance giving Il
the franchise. This was ccordingly pre-
scented and given first reading a week ago.
The judiciary committee would not report
favorably, however, because the reading OF
the ordinance gave the company latitude
enough 10 run their cars through the city
to Omaha as well as TO o street II was
on this point that the committee waited on
the officials in Omaha Tuesday. 1t 10 said
that the company assured the council that
II was the hxed intention OF the company
10 terminate the line at o street This
would make II very convenient for any
workmen OF the packers or the yards to
reach their work. A cent fare was also
arranged for the patrons OF the South
Omaha Country club. People will now be
landed in the business part Of the city. A
signed agreement Is said to have passed
between the council committee and the
street railway officials. The ordinance
probably will be passed next Monday even
ing.
