"JITNEY BUS" HAS EFFECT IN
SEATTLE CAR SITUATION

Seattle, Jan. 19.-In two PROPOSE
tions submitted to the city council
abandonment of projects for munich
pal ownership Of street railways is
foreshadowed because of ''jitney bus"
competition. One, a resolution in
troduced by the leader of the munic-
ipal ownership forces in the council,
provides for dropping all litigation
seeking to acquire an electric line to
a suburban town. The other, a mes
sage from Mayor Gill, vetoes a bill
passed by the council to submit to
voters a plan to extend the present
municipal line three miles. The may
or's message said:
The day book., 1915-01-19

Automobiles are about to super
sede car lines. Street railways in all
parts of the country are experiencing
difficulty in raising money for fear Of
motor bus competition. If the city,
in the face of this fact, begins to
spend money on further extensions,
we are fools rushing in where angels
fear to tread"
Portland. Ore., Jan. 19.-On the
ground that the operations of "jitney
buses" in Portland was more than
likely to be short lived because it
could not be profitable, the city COM
mission has declined to license or

"JITNEY BUSES" A HUGE HIT IN
MANY COAST CITIES
San Francisco, Jan. 10 "Jitney
Buses" or automobiles carrying pas
sengers for miles along principal
thoroughfares of cities for cents,
are sweeping the west. The street
car companies admitted today that
the buses are cutting their receipts
thousands of dollars weekly. A bill
has been introduced in the California
legislature to declare the ''jitney bus"
a common carrier under the control
of the state railroad commission.
Practically every city on the coast
has the jitney fever The bus oper-
atoTs have organized themselves into
the "Jitney Bus Association" and it
is expected that 5000 "jitneys" will
be in operation in San Francisco dur
ing the fair. The city taxes the buses
here SIS monthly. They carry from
four to ten passengers on every trip
and the owners admit they are clear
ing from $40 to S25 daily.
In introducing the bin in the legis-
~lature to make the "jitney" a COM
mon carrier it was argued that the
buses are taking so much business
away from the street car companies
and reducing the revenues of these
corporations to such an extent that
the states revenues would be cut
down by what threatens to be as
much as $15O,OOO year.

SWEDEN is NEAR WAR?
NATION OPPOSED TO iNTERFER-
ENcE OF TRADE BY BRITAIN.
Reported That Country Will Join the
Teutons-Norway and Denmark
'lay Aid Allies.

Washington, Oct. 1.-THE area Of
shortly by the entrance of the king
dom of Sweden into the conflict.
Official and authoritative informa-
ton received here is to the effect that
Sweden's reason will be the interior
ence of the British fleet with trade
between the United States and that
country.
The real ground for action, it is as
serted, will be the desire of Sweden
to profit territorially from Russia's de-
feats.
If Sweden should throw her forces
on the side of the central powers it
is regarded as altogether unlikely that
Norway and Denmark will be able to
keep out of the maelstrom which has
engulfed most of Europe.
Norway is additionally pro-English
in sentiment and policy, and Dem
marks hatred of Germany, because of
the latter's seizure and absorption of
the lost Danish provinces" has not
been diminished by time.
The Scandinavian kingdom has a
total war strength of about 4S5,000
men. It's navy comprises one sea-go-
ing cruiser, 13 coast-defense battle
ships, eight destroyers and more than
fifty torpedo boats and submarines. In
case of war the navy would cooperate
with that of Germany.
While there is no question that the
British fleet has interfered with trade
between the United States and Swed-
en-, and this government will protest
in few days against violations of
American rights, as a matter of fact
there has been skiold increase in
commerce with that country. During
the last fiscal year the United States
sold to Sweden products valued at
$78,273,S1S, as against $14.644 ,226edur-
ing the fiscal year preceding the war.
