reached and . meeting between city

Friday morning.
The victory for the city was abso-
Lutte. Everything city omcials have
been lighting for for years. was grant

for IN extension Of the franchise and
a withdrawal OF the $226,0O0 bond or
dinance for municipal extensions.

ton expert, who aided the late Tom
Johnson IN his 13-year night In Cleve-

Six years ago. during the FIRST ad-
ministration Of william T. Sawyer, a.
mayor. demands were made upon the
traction company for necessary Car

grade crossings in Akron. The trac-
ton company blocked It.
Akron recently tried 70 acquire va.
ter rights In the Cuyahoga river val.

traction company threw In stumbling
