Jasper County Democrat, Volume 8, Number 35, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 2 December 1905 — ELECTRIC RAILROAD PROJECT. [ARTICLE]

ELECTRIC RAILROAD PROJECT.

C. G. Spitler and Delos Thompson were at Logansport Tuesday to attend a meeting of electric railroad promoters, the proposed line to run from Lafayette to Chicago, via Wolcott, Remington, Rensselaer, Roselawn, Lowell and Hammond. This meeting was to discuss plans and consider steps for organizing a company, therefore the project is in an undeveloped stage at present. E. H. Wolcott of Wolcott and Robert Parker of Remington are among the gentlemen interested in the project. Chas. L. McCaffrey of Logansport and the Henry Taylor oanking company of Lafayette, are the chief promotors.
