may HOLD CONFERENCE
ON THE HEROIC LINE BILL
Representatives of Both
Houses of Congress to Con-
slider Measure in Few DAYS.

A conference between the representa-
tives of the two houses of Congress on
the bill giving the District Commission
ers authority to regulate the Metropolitan
Coach Company, 18th street herdic
line, will probably be held in a few days
Senator Jones. head of the conferees OF
range with Representative Rothermel,
head of the House conferees, an early
date for meeting.
A feature of the conference will be the
presentation of protests on behalf Of the
Washington Railway and Electric Com
pany and the Capital Traction Company
against the House amendments to the bill
providing for free reciprocal transfers
between the herdc line and both of the
street railway lines at 18th street and
New York avenue.
Representatives of the Washington
Railway and Electric Company have
asked to be heard in opposition to that
feature of the bill, far as 1t affects
them, and this hearing will probably be
a feature of the first conference over the
bill At the same time, 1t is expected,
will present similar protests on behalf
of their company
Route Also to Be Fixed.
Another difference between the two
houses that must be adjusted in con-
ference relates to the fixing of the route
over which the herdic buses are to be
operated. The Senate gave the District
Commissioners full authority to de-
termine the route and required the herdic
line to comply in this respect with the
specifications issued from the District
building.
The House. however. has provided in
4 r ha St,o1 he, if.r-
ing that the vehicles of the Metropoli-
tan Coach Company shall follow its pres
ent route to 18th street and Pennsylvania
avenue and shall go thence to Madison
place, north to III street, east to 18th
street and thence to 18th and l. streets.
The said company, If 1t SO elects, shall
be permitted, in lieu of sending its veh-
cles west on Pennsylvania avenue. as
above provided, to send them south on
18th street and east on Pennsylvania
avenue to 9Th street west. and thence re-
verse to 10th and U streets
The House put In the amendments in
an effort to rehabilitate the herdic line.
and it is recognized that the reciprocal
transfer provision will be of great benefit
to it.
The conferees on the part of the Sen
ate are Senators Jones, Kenyon and
Paynter; on the part of the House Of
Representatives, ROthermel. Lobeck and

lived.
