HECEW|SCH IS Up IN
ARMS AGAINST ALDERMEN.

The much-abused Hegewisch is again
up in arms Some time ago the people
OF that Chicago suburb gave their APP
proval, through the aldermen, who rep
resent them. to the consolidation of
the South Chicago City Railway COM
pany and the Calumet Electric Railway
company on condition that an extension
would be built through from East Side
to Hegewisch by Jan. /. 1910.
So far nothing has been done and
the people of Hegewisch are outraged
over the matter. Now, however. Ira
NJ CODE, representing the Consolidated
Railways OF Chicago. desires to aban-.
don the original route. and is asking
for franchise on Ewing avenue to One
Hundred and Eighteenth street, where
a jog Will be made TO Rand a., and
thence on Rand to the Chicago am
it's at Burnham.
Avoids Business Dist
This route would mean thai lime
would not pass through the business
district of Hegewisch. but would pass
by Hegewisch on it's western side The
purpose of the street railway COM
pany. OF course, is to get a more direct
route to Hammond.
The route over which the franchise
several years ago was from Ninety fifth
street, on Avenue N, to Ninety eighth
street. thence to Avenue l., on Avenue
l. to One Hundred and Third street,
on One Hundred and Third street to
Ewing avenue, or Ewing avenue to One
Hundred and Sixth street on One Hun
dred and Sixth street, west to Green
Bay avenue. south on Green Bay ave-
hue to One Hundred and Sixteenth
street, west on One Hundred and Six
teenth street TO Superior avenue, south
On Superior avenue to One Hundred
and Twenty street, west on One
Hundred and Twenty-second street to
Caronddulet street south on Carondu-
let street to One Hundred and Thirtieth
street, east on One Hundred and Thir-
tieth street to Erie avenue. and then in
southerly direction through the bust,
ness district of Hegewisch to Howard
avenue, where it would parallel the
Western Indiana tracks to the Burnham
city limits.
Want Direct Route.
This is the route which the people of
Hegewisch approved, but it is also a
route of many turns that would make
a quick trip from Hegewisch to East
Side impossible
The idea of the people of Hegewisch
Is that they want what is known as
the river route" to take them to the
mills and factories which are located
along the Calumet river.
However. Ira NJ. CODE takes a differ
ent view of the situation. He wants to
serve Hegewisch. but he believes that
he can do so fairly well by running this
Lire west of the village of Hegewfsch
then as straight as the crow ffes

comparison of the prices of food
staples in 1906 and 1910 shows a re-
markable advance. The prices in the
