Whatever may be the fate in store
for the w. c., X. & w. Electric rail-
way, whose lines end in West Grove
and give promise to end every

it will not likely be until after the
hearing before the Public Servise
Commission on the petition of B..
Frank Wickersham to operate buses
over the route of the trolley line.
Then it is likely the exact status of
the company must be brought up;
why it should be permitted to sus-

should be given any carrier that
would conflict with its interests

after the car becomes subject to
the tax. The penalty for delay
in either case is rs cents per day
for twenty days and $500 per
month thereafter for not to ex-
coed five months. This means a

delayed transfer and $500 for
delayed registration with no

circumstances.
