BEAUBIEN-sT. SUBWAY READY.
Street Cars VIII Begin Using u To.
morrow.

Definite promise Is made by the
steam railway companies and the d.
U. r. officials that Fourteenth-ave.
cars will be running through the new
subway on Beaubien-st. by Wednesday
afternoon. For more than year
cars have been sent around loup on
Hastings-st., where there was a tenn
porary single track crossing, and when
long freight trains blocked the track,
there was often string OF eight or
a dozen cars, which would come down
Beaubien-st. in bunch, part Of them
turning off on .Forest-ave, and dump
ing their passengers In the cold or
rain. Work on the Beaubien-st. sub
way was delayed longer than any
other grade separation to date In the
city and for several weeks, when
cars might have been running under
the bridge, they have been obstructed
by temporary structure built by the
Lake Shore railway. A sharp letter
from Corporation Counsel Hally last
week resulted In activity through
which the way will be cleared this
week.
Besides building it's track under the
subway, the ID. u. r. has been work
ing ON the double tracking OF Mack.
ave. and the looping OF the Chene-st.
end OF the Baker line on Grandy-ave.
The company will shortly rebuild Its
tracks on Dix-ave., from Livernois to
Ferndale. and on Griswold-st., from
Jefferson.ave. to State-st., and will
then go at the extension of the Third
ave. line up Hamilton-blvd.
