THE LAKE SHORE NEWS, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 19,19M. BY MAY FIRST Alderman Sam Topliff Read Communication From Rail- way Superintendent to Evanston Council. TEN N£W CARS ORDERED The new can of the Evanston Rail- way company will be delivered on the first of May. This was the reas- suring news Alderman Sam Topliff of the railway committee of the Evans- 1 ton council announced at the council meeting. There will be ten care. It Is thought this number will be sufficient to give first-class service on the line. The, cars will be of all l^rteel-^onsteuctloi very latest In design. They will be forty-two feet long and will give seat- ing* to forty passengers. An argument arose when Alderman Topliff reported that the seats of the cars would be four inches wider than those in the present cars. Aldermaa 'Carter wanted to know if the cars liwbttld^ibeLisb :wide that the; create a "death "strip" when running 'ttytkQtracks. No personwas able to answer the question, bo the rail- way committee was requested to make a. report on this at the next meeting of the council. _ .,^_. 1^___ No "Oeathr 8trip/' Charles Speed, who Is in charge of construction for the Railways com- pany, stated that the cars would be no •■'■ widef,^the"~]fouT--inehres~iBr~tbr1TeHleiice width Of the seats being made up by the use of all-steel In construction. Mr. Topliff read the communication irbm the railway company to-the council and the solOns seemed greatly pleased wlth^theeffort-the-company is putting forth to give Kvanston- bet- ^ service.
