DISCUSS
PLANS TO COMBINE
STREET CAR LINES
Secret Session Frames
Bill to Give Capital
Traction Control.

Convinced that the most effective
way to deal with the local street
car situation is to allow the Capt.
tai Traction Company to absorb the
Washington Railway and Electric
Company. several Senators met yes
terday in secret session to discuss
ways and means to accomplish this
purpose, 1t was learned.
A bill was being framed which
would allow the Capital Traction
Company to acquire a controlling
interest in the voting stock of the
Washington Railway and Electric
Compay and subsidiary companies
operating street cars in the District
Intesest in the local traction sit
uation was awakened by rumors
that outside interests were endeav-
oring to secure control of the wash

pany, it was stated. While MEM
bers of the Senate have watched
the development of a plan of con-
solidation by private enterprises
they do not see any advantage in
merely having the controlling stock
of one company transferred to an
other city without some Indication
that a merger is contemplated, It
was explained.
One Senator was said to have
expressed himself as opposed to any
further temporizing with the trac-
tion interests, demanding that some
drastic action be taken to settle the
problem for one and for all. This
was said to reflect the opinion Of
several members of the Senate who
have previously opposedSall drastic
measures dealing with the street
car companies.
No credence was given the state
ment that an offer had been made
for 27.50o shares of stock without
seeking a controlling interest in
the Washington Railway and Elec-
trio Company. II was claimed.
Information was obtained from
Corporation Counsel Stephens, who
is said to be collecting data for
Senators interested in perfecting
the new measures.
The bill, It was predicted. will
be ready for introduction in the
Senate whiting the next day or
