1t Is proposed to introduce a bill at the
coming session of Congress which will
give permission to build a line from Wis
cOnsin avenue through Cleveland Park
and thence to the south. Sk1rtng the

Turning to the east when Massachusetts
Avenue Heights is reached, the cars VIII
run over one of the new streets arc
thence enter Connecticut avenue a Shof'
distance north OF the new Connecticut
Avenue bridge.
Connection With Capital Traction.
A connection can be made there with
the tracks of the Capital Traction Com
pany on Connecticut avenue. and the cars
continued across the railroad bridge and
along Calvert street. or, If the new line is
built and operated by the Washington Rail
way and Electric Company, after crossing
the railroad bridge the cars can turn INTO
10th street and pass south along that
thoroughfare to Columbia road to q juno
ton with the Connecticut avenue line OF
that company. On account of the condi-
ton of traffic on the railway bridge, OBJ
lection may be raised to having it used
by another line Of cars. In such event
it is suggested that the new Connecuticut
avenue bridge be used. and thus afford a
direct connection to the center of the
city.
Consideration OF the problem has gone
so far that one of the solutions offered Is
to have only one track on the new bridge.
thus taking up the smallest possible
amount of space. If such q plan Is adopt
ed, the cars on the Connecticut avenue line
of the Washington Railway and Electric
Company would run out as usual lowiri
Mount Pleasant and leave Columbia road
at its junction with Connecticut avenue
on top of the hill. running thence along
that thoroughfare to the north end Of
the bridge. and thence westward TO Wis
consn avenue in the vicinity of Cleveland
Park

GROSS TOWN TROLLEY
PROMISED IN NEAR FUTURE
Permission to Be Sought From Congress
for New Line Eastward From
Wisconsin Avenue.

Il is quite evident that street railway
buldin: in the city IS by no means ended
The lines that have recently been bullt
and others that have been projected are
evidence of the effort made to meet the
needs of a growing population. During
the coming session of Congress it is pro-
posed to seek authority that one of the
street car systems Of the city will be able
to connect its existing roads with n line
running east and west through the sec
ton of the country lying between Wis
consin avenue and Connecticut avenue.
The need Of some connecting link of the
sort has long been felt Heretofore the
residents of the 10 atty have used the
north and south trolley most convenient
TO their homes, while those occupying the
central region have been more or less re-
mote from such a convenience of mod
ern life. To a large extent the course of
population throughout this section has
been directly northward from the center
of the city. Eut the growth is broaden
ing, and as the large trac; OF land known
as Massachusetts Avenue Heights is
being ,Qt In.o Dulidin5 loIs sucn move
