HIT PLATFORM HOGS
Council May Pass Ordinance
! to Force People to Ride
Inside Street Cars.
COMPANY WANTS THE CHANGE

Certain members Of the common
council are after the "platform hogs
and as a result an ordinance may be
introduced in the common council
which will prohibit people remaining
on platforms of street cars when Ghere
is much unoccupied room in the inter
Tor of the cars Appeals have been
made to officials of the street railway
company to remedy the nuisance and
although orders were issued to con-
ductors and motormen to have passen-
gers enter the cars and not remain on
the platforms, the orders did not ap-
pear as a remedy to relieve the situa-
tion and now members of the common
council are discussing an ordinance
introduced which will compel people
to go into the street cars whenever
there is room.
It is nothing uncommon to see a
street car going along a street with
both platforms crowded and with but
a few passengers inside the car and
when these passengers attempt to
leave the car they find themselves
handicapped by people on the platform
and some of them refuse to move I'M
til ordered to do So OF course it is
expected that persons who are smoking
will stand on the platform of a street
car but it is now the general custom
for men, smoking or not, to stand on
the platforms and refuse to step inside
when requested so to do.

of time to make his escape. One sus-
pect was arrested on Friday night but
he was released this morning after he
had established an alibi.
