TRACTION MEM MET BOARD HERE TODAY Appell and Jeffries Order All Improvements Demand- : , ed Made at Once.

The tracks will be removed from "the Glen park within a short time, the lines over the city will be repaired, graded, the track joints tightened up, removing the bumps, the ropes on the summer cars removed and push buttons installed, the cars will be better cared for by a larger cleaning force at the car barns, a fifteen minute Fairview service will be Instituted, the trolly poles will be painted, and new cars brought here for service October 1. These improvements were positively assured today by Vice President Appell, and General Manager, C. K. Jeffries, of the Terre Haute, Indianapolis and Eastern Traction company, at a meeting with the board of works at the city hall this morning. The new turn-out tracks for Twentieth and Main street and Twentieth and E streets, which cost about $1,900 : because they have to be made especially, have been ordered and marked "rush." They will be put in as soon as they arrive and the tracks will then be taken from the Glen. All tracks in the city on streets not now paved with brick or macadamized last fall will be repaired. The track joints will be bolstered up with new plates and new ties, filled in beneath with crushed, stone. The surface between the tracks will be filled with stone and rolled to make a thorough and modern pavement. Will Start At Once. This work will be started at once. The city has designated ninety days as the time limit for the work to be done by the car company but this time limit will not be arbitrarily enforced. The company promised to make all the needed changes in good faith if the city would not carry out its action in revoking the franchise. The filthy condition of the cars which occasioned the turmoil and played a prominent part in the revocation of the franchise of the T. H., I. and . E. company, will be remedied. Supt. Gordon was given orders this

morning to put on a larger force and to keep the cars clean. The old push buttons in the sides of the cars which have been in disuse ior years, will be placed in ubc again, and the Old bell ropes, a relic of the horse car period, will be eliminated. The traction officials refused to pay the salary of the city traffic officer at Eighth and Main streetc, but may place a man there on Sundays when the city officer is not on duty at this corner. Chief Engineer Heren, who has propared a rough estimate of the cost of the repairs to be made here, will be in the city tomorrow to meet City Kngineer Charles in regard to the Main Street bridge repairs. The company wants to put in some new creosoted blocks, to be filled with tar, which

they claim to be lighter and to stop the leaking through between the rails which has rusted the bridge and damaged It. The new Fairview car schedule will be placed in effect immediately,' stated Mr. Jeffries. New Winter Cars. The new cars which are to bo here Oct. 1, for service are now being remodeled in the Indianapolis repair shops. They are large cars, with big vestibules which are to be enclosed. The sides are steel, covered with wood, and are in excellent condition. The heating system is to be hot water, with a hard coal furnace on each car. These cars are believed to be perfectly satisfactory. These repairs promised will remedy
