CHANGING CAR SERVICE
South Side Residents Want
Schedule Maintained

ALAMEDA, Dec. 17.-Residents and
property owners in the populous resi-
dental district bounded by Park and
Ninth streets and San Antonio avenue
and the bay are circulating a petition
protesting against the plans of the pub
lie utilities committee of the city coun-
ell to recommend to the Oakland trac-
tion company that the San Jose avenue
electric line, which now affords a direct
service to the heart of the business
section of Oakland from Ninth street
and Santa Clara avenue in this city
by way of East Oakland, be reconverted
into a feeder line with transfer points
at Santa Clara avenue and Ninth street
and at Park street and San Jose ave-
nue..
The San Jose avenue line was re-
built and broad gauged last spring by
the Oakland traction company, aud a
through service to Oakland put into
effect The service is now the best
ever afforded the south side residents
and they object to any change being
made.
1t is understood that tile reason the
public utilities committee wants the
through service on San Jose avenue
discontinued is to have more cars oper-
ated through the business district in
Park street by the way of East Oak
