SUSTAINS CLUB

Monday of this week represen-
tatiyes of the Yashon Island Com
Iinercial Club headed by Chas. Eng
land, president and w, G. Mere
dith, vice president of the Club
appeared before the department
of public works at meeting held
in the Winthrop Hotel, Tacoma, 10
show cause why the Washington
Navigation Company should not
discontinue the II p, m. ferry on
week days and make othet
changes in their present schedule.
The Islands case was ably pre-
sented by Mr. Jay w. McCune,
head of the traffic department OF
the Tacoma Chamber of Com
merce. He called as witnesses, Geo.
Sheffield, w, G. Meredith, Alex
Stewart and Marshall X. Smell OF
Tacoma who gave a very deScrip-
tive picture of the advantages OF
the present ferry schedule.
The fact was stressed that al.
though the late trip might not be
a paying one in itself when taken
with the other trips made ii aid
ed in building up the business OF
the company.
The ferry company was repre-
sented by Mr.. Skanski, president,
and their attorney, Mr., Peterson.
The argument put fouth by them
was to the effect that the late run
did not pay its way and that the
night landings were too hazardous
for the revenue received.
The order of the Department is
given as follows by the Tacoma
Ledger:
1.-THE Washington Navigation
company must continue its II
o clock boat Trip from Point D.
fiauee to Tallequah, Nashon IS
land, according to an order Of the
department of public works at
Olympia yesterday A hearing on
the matter was held here Monday.
The company is permitted to
change its 3 p. m. trip from Point
Defiance to 3:A5 and correspond
.ingly change the return trip from
Tallequah, but no other changes
.are allowed for its winter Sched-
