NEW ELECTRIC
LINE PROBABLE
TRACTION MEN SEE PLANS FOR
EXTENSION IN APPLICATION
FOR BOND ISSUE.
TO LINK EASTERN AND WESTERN
PROPERTIES.
Il Is Thought That the Michigan G.
Chicago Co. Will Guild Line
From Owosso to Sag
NAV.

Saginaw. Mich,-The announcement
from Lansing that the Michigan &
Chicago Railway Co, has asked per-
mission of the state tax commission
to issue 100000 in bonds. and CAPT
tai stock of $750,000, is believed by
interurban officials in Saginaw and
Bay City to be another plan to link
together the urban properties of east
ern and western Michigan and event
ually form a chain to reach from Bay
City to Kalamazoo and Grand Rapids.
The fact that the Michigan & Chicago
company states it will take over a
nearly completed line between Sagi-
nav and Bay City lends substance to
this theory.
This line is owned by the Saginaw
and Bay City interurban properties
and is a Hodenpyl, Hardy & Co. prop
erty. This concern is the owner of
the Commonwealth Rail. Light & Pow
err Co., which also controls the Michi-
gan United Traction, and herein the
meat of the entire scheme is said 10
lie.
The Michigan & Chicago will build
the proposed line from Owosso TO
Saginaw the only stretch that has not
a line already built or under con
struction from Bay City to KaIama-
zoo and Grand Rapids. The NJ. u. T.
or rather the Commonwealth, is con
structing an interurban line from
Grand Rapids to Kalamazoo. From
Kalamazoo TO jackson, Jackson TO
Lansing, and Lansing TO Owosso. the
M. U. T. operates. 1t is a distance OF
80 miles from Owosso to Saginaw
and from Saginaw the new fast urban
line is about ready TO give service
to Bay City.
The new line between Saginaw and
Bay City will be in operation by Jan,
uary l. and will make the run in 80
minutes, with no stops. Old cars are
being rebuilt in Saginaw and will
have 120O-voltage motors instead OF
500 now in use on the interurban cars
between the two cities.
