MIR. HOFF AND
RY. FRANCHISE

General Manager Samuel Hoff, Of the
Wilmington city Railway Company vigor-
ously denied this morning that the tracks
OF the company extending from Spruce
street to the Fourth street steamboat
wharf had ever been abandoned, accord
ing TO recent statement Of Manager
Richard Crook, of the Peoples Railway to
the Street and Sewer Directors The fran
chise for the extension was granted i'm
1856 Mr.. Crool, seeks to have the city de-
clare the grant forfeited on the ground
that the tracks until this summer had not
been used for Is years.
This morning Mr.. Hoff said that the only
reason the tracks east Of the Pennsylvania
railroad tracks on Fourth street had not
been used was that connection had been
held up because of work on the railroad
tracks and the construction. of the eleva-
tiona The present railway tracks east OF
the elevation, he said. were laid in 1904 to
replace old tracks and the railway COM
pany paid for tho paving Of the street ex-
cept small part near the curbs. The
tracks east of the railroad tracks, he said,
had not been connected until this summer
because II had not been possible before
owing 10 the work ON the railroad. The
tracks had been disconnected when the
work was started on the railroad eleva-
ton Mr.. Hom declared and reconnect.on
had been held up about seven years
A strong point in Mr.. Hoff's contention
is that the new rails in 1904 were laid at
the request of the city and the fact that
the legality of the franchise for tho sec
A.
city would indicate that any attempt at
this time to oust the company would not
succeed.
I'VE haven't prepared TO defend the
franchise, because it isn't necessary. D."

the situation.

SURE BETTER PROTECTION.

INDIANAPOLIS, Feb, 10.--The
first important steps looking to the
better protection of travellers on the
traction and interurban lines are
being taken in Indiana, which state
claims to possess the largest and
best equipped system of electric and
interuraban lines of and in the
country. The frequency of acct
dents in the past year has led to
the movement for more adequate
safety devices and more care in the
operating.
Officials of the various lines OPP
Grating in Indiana met here today
to discuss the matter with the rail-
riad commission. The officials have
expressed their entire willingness
to cooperate with the commission
in formulating new rule for the uni
form operation of the roads, and pro-
viding for the instruction of con-
ductors and motor men in the rules,
and in taking any other steps for
safe operation and the prevention OF
accidents as the commission may
deem necessary.
