Pratt and Frank Hibbard of Irvington, a proposition is on foot to construct an electric roal from the terminus of the present car lines in this city to Fremont. Within two or three days the owners of property and tho general public will be invited to meet the projectors of the road at Bennington. That this meeting was to be called was learned by a Bee reporter, and a call was made this morning upon Colonel Pratt. “Yes,” he said, “ it is true that we want a road, and T have no doubt that its construc tion will be immediately commenced. The situation is precisely this: Along the old military road from this city to Fremont there are hundreds of old settlers in good circum- stances. This business demands quicker and more frequent communication with this city We want more passenger trains, and we need an opening for our dairy products. One party alono on the proposed road could supply, if he could get the proper tram service, the en- tire city of Omaha with the dairy produce 1 by it. The trouble now is that such o cannot be had. We came together. that is, a few of the leading property own- ers along the proposed line—and determined that this must be changed. We have got the money, and we believe that such a road would bo & commercial success. “Do we want any help from the county? That Is a question I am not prepared to an- ¢ further than this: If the county will 1p us, we want its aid, but If it will not contribute, we will build it anyhow. All of tho property owners on the line are in good circumstances, They have been living there for many years, and now fecl that they need better accommos lons, so far as trans portation is concerned. We aro determined to have it. The rapid strides made by elec- trieity us a motive power lead us to believe that it can be utilized for carrying freight, You can say unhesitatingly that we will build the road, and we will do it right away. There 15 no doubt but that our meeting at Benning- ton will be largely attended. Every man with whom I have spoken regarding the matter is enthusiastic, and believes in the feasability of the scheme. It will give a great deal of employment to our necdy laborers, and that immediately.” ALl e A perfect pie is a work of art when the crust is raised with Dr. Piice's Baking Powder. e STRANGE JURY IS STILL WRESTLING Willing to Couvict but Two Insist the Dofendant is Not Guilty.

JE NOW IN SESSION Schedule Committee Has a Job Ahead in the Way of Arranging n Schedule, MILWAUKEE, March 1l.—Delegates to the regular spring schedule meeting of the Western Bage Ball league were called to order at the St. Charles hotel today. A number of disputes in regard to players are being considered, President Johngon today announced the appointment of Western gue um pire follows: Sandy MeDermott, John Sheridan, Timothy O'Brien and John Hoagland. The schedule will bs adopted tomorrow. The schedule committee, consisting of Long of Tolodo, Barnes of Mitreap 15 and Comirkey of Bt. Paul, worked until a late hour to- night, but the progress was slow and all hope of submitting a finlshed schedule until tomorrow had to be abandoned, Two schedules were prepared, one by Barnes and one by Long, and they both had to be cast aside and a new one started, because of the fact that no Sunday games will be allowed at Indianapolis this year, for which no pro- vigion had been mi After a schedule is adopted by the committee and submitted to the directors, there is every likelihood of a fight taking place about if. It is now the program for the western ciubs to open the season at the cast end of the league, which is not so unsatisfactory if there is an a ance that the clubs wWill be glv a fairly economical manner as r eling.
