INTERURBAN TALK ALONG PAN HANDLE

Peoples and Brown, Who Recently Visited Rensselaer, Held MeetIng at Goodland. Messrs. Peoples and Brown, the two men who came here a week ago and stated that they were projecting an interurban project from Logansport to Kankakee and who had previously been over a route paralleling the Pan Handle railroad, are again visiting those towng. and divulging their plans. On Thursday night they held a meeting at Goodland, it is reported, and found the people there anxious to secure the road. The plan Is to sell bonds along the rightof-way nlstead of voting subsidies. A meeting is to be held soon in Remington, another in Wolcott and other towns. When Messrs. Peoples and Brown were in Rensselaer they stated that they would soon make a cross country trip from Logansport to Kankakee by way of Royal Center, Francesville, Pleasant Grove, Rensselaer, Mt. Ayr, Morocco, St. Anne and Kankakee. This route has many attractions that a line paralleling a steam road can not offer, and the gentlemen said they would again visit this city before taking definite action, if it was decided to bufld.
