Vetoes Railway Franchise.

Mayor David S. Rose of Milwaukee has vetoed the ordinance giving a franchise to the Milwaukee, Burlington and Lake Geneva Railroad Company to construct an electric elevated road within the city limits. The ordinance was passed by the common council on Monday last by a vote of 36 to 10. It is predicted that when the mayor’s veto comes before the council for consideration that body will pass the measure over the mayor’s veto.
