NEW TRACKS AND NEW CARS ARE HERE Superintendent Smith Tells of the of the Company and What May Be Expected by Ita Patrons. Yesterday afternoon General Manager ( Smith of the street railway company said | that the company had just completed lay- ing new heavy rails on Q street as far | west as Thirty-third street, and that im- | provemnets are being made on the Al- bright line. Mr. Smith said: “Owing to the washouts on our Albright lines, we have been compelled to lay in new ties and repalr the tracks twice this year. We are now making repairs which we ex- pect to last for some time." As for the extension of the car line to | the county line, Mr. Smith declared that the work caunot Re done until the city engineer had surveyed the original road- way. Another thing the company wants | betore 1t lays any more tracks on Rall- | road avenue is the paving of the street. | Mr. Smith seemed to be more hopeful about the bullding of the ‘Thirteenth street line this year. He #ald that he had a portion of the steel needed, but did not have enough to warrant the commence- ment of work. “As soon as we t the steel,” said Mr. Smith, “we will start building ‘that line on Thirteenth street south to Missouri avenue. We want to have this line completed before the end of the % | year.” When attention was called to the con- ditlon of the cars now running on the | Albright and Missouri avenue lines Mr | Bmith stated that cars for these lines are | now in the shops, being repainted and re- paired and will be turned out in a short time. Some improvement has already been made It the transportation service by the use of the long cars formerly used on the Council Bluffs line. These big cars are appreclated, especlally by those using the line when the traffic Is the heaviest in the morning and evening. ‘Want Squatters Moved. About a dozen citizens of Albright have petitioned the city councll to have two squatters moved. One is W. H. Pettit, at Madison and the county road, and the other is a man named English, who has a house at Twenty-third and the county road. The petitioners declare to the coun- cll that these squatters are a nuisance. Just to show how much attention is paid to the notices of the city officials, the petition states that since having been noti- fied to vacate the premises Pettit has erected an addition to his. house. The house, ®0 It Is asserted, was bullt last spring, but the addition has only been bullt since the legal department served | notices to vacate.
