With applause from the
forces in favor of the adj
mission of the new railways,
the city council last night by
a vote of 8 to l passed the
franchises of the North
Coast and the Milwaukee
railways and the terminal
company that is to build the
union passenger station.
Friends of a square deal
for the people were very
much in the minority in the
crowd in the council cham
Der, as the railroads had the
best Of it in the demonstra-
tions that attended the dis
cussion over the final clashes
on the franchises.
Members of the council approach
ed the final stage of the great fight
with some nervousness. There was
some uneasy shifting in seats, few
premature motions, made in the
eagerness of the councilmen to have
it all over. A few of the council
men realized that the step they
were about to take was the most
strenuous Of their lives, and natur-
ally they could not control the emo
ton that held sway within.
SCHILLER ONLY OPPONENT.
The only opponent of the fran
chises on the floor of the city coun-
Gil was Jacob Schiller of the Third
ward. Councilman George W.
Shaefer Of the Second ward was
the floor manager for the fran
chiseS.
On the motion of Dalke, the rules
were suspended so as to give the
franchises the right of way over all
other matters. Mr.. Dalke then tried
three times to make a motion to
place the franchises on their third
reading and final passage"
Which one?" asked some other
member. Dalke in his haste had
neglected to say which of the three
franchises he wanted put through
first.
Chairman Lambert suggested that
1t might be well, before making the
motion, to hear the report of the
committee of the whole on the
franchises, step that was prelimi-
nary to placing the franchises on
their final passage. The report of
the committee of the whole, recon-
mending that the franchises as re-
ported out of the council be passed.
was adopted. The North Coast
franchise was then taken up.
Councilman Nelson introduced his
amendment to hold an election, the
result of which would bind the rail
roads and the people alike, the
franchise to remain suspended
pending the outcome of the cleo
ton. Schiller seconded, but the
motion was defeated on a viva voce
vote, in which the only supporters
of the election were Nelson and
Schiller. The latter demanded a
roll call, but Lambert overruled the
demand. saying that it was now too
late.
SCHllLER'S AMENDMENT.
Schiller offered an amendment
compelling the North Coast after
January /, 1915, to pay the city
$4,000 a year. Nelson seconded.
Mohr endorsed the motion, and said
that he thought the franchise might
be worth million dollars.
Shaefer complained because
Schiller had sprung the proposition
