ALDERMEN FAVOR new PLANS
Receivers of Through Line Would
Build Cross City Line in Racine TO
Insure Better Connections for the
Company.

The receivers of the Chicago and
Milwaukee Electric Railway Company
are planning to build line of railway
into the very heart of the city of Ra-
cine to connect the main line of the
company with the center of Racine and
it is declared that within few days
a petition will be. sent to the city
council of Racine asking for confer
ence with the receivers of the COM
pany with view of granting a fran
chise. The company has not selected
any route for the road to enter Racine
but it is planned to allow the council
members to select route which would
be agreeable to the people of Racine.
The company does not plan to run the
cars from the main line into the city
of Racine but it sees the necessity of
having a city line in Racine which will
make direct connections with the main
line. At the present time the company
is forced to depend upon the lines Of a
competing company to get passengers
to the West Side station in Racine and
this arrangement is not entirely salts
factory. The business that the com
pany is getting out of Racine is grow
ing very rapidly and the demand for a
connecting line is regarded as an ur-
gent one The Milwaukee Electric
Railway and Light Company which
owns the local lines in Racine has
sought to checkmate the proposed move
of the Chicago and Milwaukee by an
nouncing a plan to build new line
across Racine which shall be a connect
ing line for the Chicago and Milwau-
kee but there is strong sentiment in
Racine in favor of permitting the com
peting company to build it's own con
Meeting line if the company is willing
to meet the demands of the city of Ra-
cine along the lines laid down by the
members of the common council.
Prominent Racine men who were in
Kenosha Thursday evening admitted
that they had been approached on the
subject but they declared that the re-
ceivers of the company had not as yet
been given the assurance that the city
would take favorable action on the pro-
posed petition. Some Of the officials of
Racine do not seem to favor a double
system of street railways in that city
and for this reason they are a little
slow to take any action on the proposed
plan for the new connecting line. Ke-
nosha people would be glad to see this
closer connection with Racine as at the
present time many people take the slow
line to Racine rather than to stand for
the long wait for connecting car.
