Stopping off at Jackson to investigate
the favorable reports regarding the

below $1,000, Mr.. Dill became so ia
vorably impressed with the car and
the stability of the factory back of it,

of construction and price class and

rounding territory. The specifications

Amended.

Through an action Of the board Of
city commissioners yesterday jitney
operators will be given ar extension
of time until December l to provide
themselves with indemnity bonds
which will meet the approval Of the
city attorney. The commissioners dur
ing the same session turned down the
bonds issued by a certain company, at
the suggestion Of the city attorney,
who was Of the opinion they protected
only the car drivers and not the pas
sengers.
Realizing something would have to
be done to prevent working a hard
ship on the jltneurs, the board
amended the ordinance by striking
out the clause regulating the number
OF passengers which may be carried
at once. This was with the explicit
understandin however, that bond
ing provision will be required Decem-
ber l. II no company can bo found
to write the kind OF insurance re-
duired, the commissioners will again
amend the ordinance regulating the
number of passengers, limiting them
to those who may be seated inside the
cars and forbldding riding on the
boards.
The city attorney Is convinced the
local iitneurs were victimized by a
smooth talking insurance agent, and
paid their money for bonds which In
