Agreement Reached Relative To
Loop for Depot and West Side
Cr0sstOwn Extension
ACTION DELAYED ON
KERCHEVAL-AVE. TRACK
Will Be Held Up Until Seven
teenth Ward Aldermen Pre-
sent the Plan

Routes for two Of the three pro-
posed street car extensions were de-
cided on. Friday afternoon. In q con-
ference between the members Of the
council committee on public utilities.
Railway Commissioners Dodge and
Couzens, and Frank w. Brooks, gem
eral manager Of the D. y. n.
The extension Of the Fourteenth
line to loop the new Michigan Cen
tral depot was approved by Mr..
Brooks, and he accepted the routo
laid out by Commissioners Dodge for
the Junction-ave. crOsstown line, sub
ject to an inspection Of the territory
by the companys officials. Mr.. Brooks
informed the city officials that they
could consider the line accepted un-
less the company aled an objection
within q few hours.
In the case of both extensions Mr..
Brooks stipulated that the D. U. r..
attorneys must approve the new reso-
lutions to be passed by the council.
Corporation Counsel lawson was in
structed by the committee to see that
the resolutions are drawn up SO as to
provide the same terms under which
the Hamilton-blvd extension was built.
No action was taken on the Kerche-
vaLave. extension because Aid. Dinge-
man and Schultx. OF the Seventeenth
ward, who oppose the extension as
routed by the company, were not pres
ent. These aldermen want the COM
pany to extend the line to the city
limits, north of JefYersOn-ave. Com
missioner Dodge went over the pro-
posed routes recently, and does not
agree with the aldermen on the neces-
sity OF having the car line extend
through SO much vacant territory.
When Mr.. Brooks informed the COM
mittee and the railway commissioners
that the company intended to extend
the Kercheval-ave. line east to st.
Jeansave., thence south on st. Jean
ave. to Jefferson-ave., running cars
out that thoroughfare to the city um-
It's, the city onicials were inclined 10
favor that route as the best, although
no definite action was taken.
The Junction-ave. and the Kerche-
val-ave. extensions as outlined In the
first resolutions passed by the coun-
Gil, were rejected by the company be-
cause they we're too "indehnite' and
did not follow the routing plan out
lined In the compromise agreement
which the council adopted. The new
resolutions will be submitted to the
council as soon as possible. because
all these extensions are badly needed.

M.HUCH'S TaEFTS
MAY REACH $4,000
Cashier of Cadillac State Bank
Arraigned on Larceny Charge
After Confession

CADILLAC, Mich, Sept. 20.-(Spe'
cial. al.)-Charged with larceny. G. j.
McHugh, who recently confessed that
he had ernbezzled $4,000 OF the funds
OF the Cadillac State bank, Of which
he was cashier, was arraigned In
Judge Ardis' court, Friday.
Men now engaged In going over
McHugh's accounts, state that they
believe the amount OF his speculations
will be found to exceed $4,000 In
stead OF $4,000 as he said. The evi'
dence shows that his last theft was
committed shortly after he became
cashier OF the bank, when he took
$1,000 at one time.
