several on-lookers an accommodating fan

to beat them with a length of gar

their chatter, and they talk, in
voices strong. of the things that do
not matter, of the things that don't
belong. If there is theme or topic
that's a weariness to me, they'll
discuss it, loud and yawpic, till l
wiring my hands and fee. But 1

they journey to my gate; with a
cordial smile l scan them, crying.

like to have my nieces come and
drink dish of tea. but they

wardrobe trunks to me. I can
stand a decent number, and my well

PLANS CAR SERVICE.
/. OVER NEW BRIDGE.
Capital Traction Company
Files Application for Permit
= to Lay Tracks.

Formal application to construct a
double track extension on the new
Georgetown bridge and to operate cars
between Georgetown and Rosslyn was
dled yesterday with the War DEPART
ment by the Capital Traction Company.
through George Z. Hamilton, its presi-
dent.
Filing of the formal application
with Secretary Weeks foilo"eo an
Informal presentation of the matter
to the District Public Utilities Com
mission and its virtual approval Dy
that body. II the War Department
approves. residents OF nearby VIZ
sinia points, now dependen. san.arc, ro,
bridge line of the Washington and
Old Dominion Company. will not be
left without street railway transpor-
tation next spring when that COM
pany abandons It's cross-riVer service.
Estimated Cost. S15O.0O0.
According to engineers. the extension
over the Georgetown bridge Will cost
about 3l5o.ooo. on which there Is no
prospect of u return for many years
until traffic has been developed far
beyond the present point. Under
provision of the Key bridge act, q
tax of one-half cent per street
car passenger is imposed on any
over its surface In consequence. the
Capital Traction Company Will ASK
for a half cent bridge fare. This
proposed bridge fare has received the
Informal approval of the Ctilities
Commission.
Dtmculties Cited.
Some of the difficulties confronting
the company in the proposed CON
struction " ere pointed out In letter
from President Hamilton to Col.
Charles E. Keller, L. S. A.. Engineer
Commissioner. Mr.. Hamilton said In
part:
dition between the tracks and two
feet outside thereof shall be paid
for by the railway constructing said
tracks. and 1t Is also PROVIDED tnat
all electric railways, including the
company making the constructor.
dition to taxes and other charges. pay
monthly into the Treasury of the
United States. the sum of one-half OF
Sne cent for each passenger trans
oorted each way over said bridge.
"As we stated to you. we are not
seekinE this extension. and would
only undertake 1t to meet the wishes
and needs of the public and on terms
fair and equitable, and we could not
DO so unless the tax of half cent
per passenger above referred to Is
repealed, or an additional fare au-
thorized on all rides over the bridge.
Payment by Company "Unfair.7
,"It would be unfair to require the
Capital Traction Company out of Its
funds to pay this one-half cent bridge
tax on all passengers carried. And In
our opinion II would be unfair that
the general riding public of the Dis
trict should pay this special tax on
bridge passengers. Indeed. the exac-
ton of any such tax, especially from
a company required to pave and main
tain the pavement as set forth in the
act, is both unusual and unfair"
Plans for the operation of cars over
the bridge have not been completed.
but work will be begun as soon as
hnal approval Is given.
