made by which this monument can
be furnished each of the Southern

many thousand dollars less than

Ensley Five Cent Fare

We prefer to install in addition to the system of fares and transfers in force the Ensley ne five cent cash fare between Birmingham and Ensley but without ceiving giving transfers in connection herewith also carry passengers between Birmingham and Tuxedo by way of Tuxedo Junction at five cents
 We propose also to extend the five fare limits the North Bessemer line to Martin Station
 All the foregoing concessions to become effective January l. 1912 under contract with the city, giving the protection under the changed conditions that now have under the present conditions.
 We estimate that the Company's loss in due to this reduction in fare will be approximately fifty thousand dol lars per We cannot believe that this reduction will bring about in the fuure sufficient increase travel to offset this loss only hope that the loss will be made by the development of the ritory between Ensley and Birmingham and the continued growth of Ensley and its suburbs
