CITY, CAUSING DAILY
LOSS OF '$1000 TO P. R.T.
Bus Traffic Grows Police
Estimate Shows 50,000
Persons Were Transport
ed Yesterday Entire
Town Demands Service.
Jitney traffic, which linn grown bv leaps
Btid bounds, today assumed altito'l unbe
lievable, proportions The police estimate
that about 1000 bussed arc operating In
various parts ot tho cltj West Philadel
phia lines have been opened, now lines are
opcratlnR In the northeast section of the
city and a West Market strict line cat
rled hundreds to the central part of the
city Oil morning Outlvlnc sections of
tho tlty nie nuking strenuous efforts to
obtain Jltne service
An idea or the growth of the liuslnci
Way be gleaned from the pollie estimate
that nearly oO.CW persons rode In the
busses yestcrdn Hroad street, fiom
early mornttiK to midnight, saw n mil
tlnuous stream of the Jltncvs, and lr
tually ever main arterv of traffic win
traversed by the cars, all of them loaded
to the limit In spite of tho Immense
crowds lhit were handled no accidents
were reported.
Tho loss of revenue which the 1 It T
Is facing' from the Introduction of tho
Jitney Is about $10n0 a da Wsteida s
figures doubled this amount
P. It, T stock, which closed at HP, on
Saturday, declined to 9 1 rust crtln
catca of the PUT which last Satur
day sold at lO'-j, today were selllnc at '.
Heforo noon about 300 shares of P It T
were sold, and nbout 1240 trust certificates
changed hands
The eotnpan Is making everv effort to
learn the number Of Jltnc and the num
ber of passengers carried, but the rnpldlv
Increasing: number of busses and the
rapid opening of new routes makes tho
task extremely dlfTlcult Inspectors of the
company aro lurking In shod corners
with pencil and pad, watching tho ajtos
as they pass
'WATCHFUL WAITING '
Tho taxlcab companies have adopted a
policy ot "watchful waiting ' Thcj do
not believe that the ltne Is economlrallv
possible for on extended lime, and tho
s.y that the large Jltncv trifllc is due In
large part to curiosity anil to the novelty
of the new means of transportation They
point to the wear and tear on the small
cars by passengers alone a factor that
will rapldlv force them out of business
The cost of operation and depreciation,
they say. combined with the wear and
tear due to the passenger, will necessi
tate a greatci charge If the Jllnevs ale
to remain as a transportation factor In
this cltv The have not t tcduccd
their tai fares
Little success has been nihteved bv
those members of the State legislating
who have opposed the jltnev business
The jitney Interests do not oppose anv
legislation that Is reasonable but they
are against n violent taxation plan it I
said that an effort will be made to ie
eonsldcr the Jones bill, which was defeat
ed on Wednesday night, or to pass a bill
similar to It The Jones bill called foi a
Jitney tax of J1? per cent of the grofs
receipts and n bond of JWCO The bond
would have worked n hardship on the
rcen operating their own machines
FlUIt BIG COMPETITION
The Wh'taker bill to authorize all In
corporated traction and street rallwavs
to Bo Into the Jitney business Is now on
the postponed calendar of the House and
may be called up any time for tlnal
passage. Its sponsor said at the time of
Its introduction that it was intended for
the purpose of meeting a local condition
entlrel.v Titos Interested In the lltnev
business see disaster in Its provisions
It would open ip the Held to the big
interests, and the) could easllj force the
smaller men out of business.
Senator Patton's bill Is the least oblcc
tlonable. In the opinion of the jltnev men
It provides that each inunlnpalltv In
which Jltnos aro operating shall plate
a license fee upon the cars and designate
the streets on which the shall be per
mitted to operate This would leave the
regulation of the Jltnejs entlrelv In the
hands of cities The bill passed the Sen
ate on March 14 and was lmmediatelv le
ferred to the House Committee on Judi
ciary, where It still remains
