NO PEACHES BY
TROLLEY YET
Not at All Probable That
Lines Will Be Built This
Year

Plans Of the Chester Traction Com
pany to transport peaches from the
Delaware peach belt to Philadelphia
by trolley are not likely to develop
this year. At this time there are troll
ley facilities between Philadelphia and
Delaware City The latter terminus is
twenty-five miles from the peach belt
and as there is no prospect Of TROLLEY
construction below Delaware City, the
luscious Delaware peach viii this year
certainly be transported TO the north
ern market by rail as usual.
It is known, however. that surveys
under the direction of English and
American capitalists ara now being
made in Kent and Sussex counties for
a trolley system that VIII penetrate the
peach belt. The introduction Of the
trolley freight bill into the Pennsyl-
vania Legislature it is admitted, gave
stimulus to this project, and It is de-
clared that. in view of the possibilities
Of freight carrying that il was not diff
hcult to interest London capitalists.
There is widespread discomfort
among the Delaware fruit growers
because Of rates and the order pro-
hibiting the use Of shelvings in fruit
cars, and the farmers are ready to
patronize any freight carrier that will
give relief from these conditions an,
/ provide reasonably low rates. Tht
officers Of the Chester Traction Com.
pany believe that they will enter the
field at the moment TO get larg,
share of this patronage
