Traction Company Losing No Time in Getting Busy.
The Indiana Northwestern Traction company people are not losing any time in getting down to business on their line for which a franchise was granted them by the Hammond council last week. A gang of surveyors is at work on Fayette street and Calumet avenue and headquarters are to be established in Hammond in a very short time. A store room has already been secured on Sibley street near Sohl street, and officers of the company are out daily. Mayor Becker has signed the franchise thus removing the last obstacle as far as the city is concerned.
