Commercial Club Seeks Entrance of Traction Line From Decatur

Hopes to Interest Buyers of Defunct Ft. Wayne and Springfield Company in Extending Line South.

To augment the possibilities of securing a traction line coming into Richmond from the north along the Commercial club's survey, the organization will ascertain the probable bidders for the purchase of the Fort Wayne and Richmond Traction company with the idea of interesting the purchasing company in . a branch south. The Fort Wayne and Springfield Traction company which operates cars from Fort Wayne to Decatur, has gone into the hands of a receiver and will be sold May 2. The company

had graded a roadbed and placed ties in readiness to start the work of laying another line from Decatur to Portland. The Comemrcial club will show the possibilities of a line extended to Union City from Portland and from Union City along the survey previously made into Richmond. The organization will not wait until the traction company has been sold, but will start at once to presenting data to possible purchasers. Charles Jordan, secretary, and the members of the committee on transportation facilities, will have charge of the matter. The survey, which was made by the Commercial club, would bring the line along well traveled roads where there is neither traction nor railroad lines. As Richmond can be reached by railroads, a line from there Is not desired.
