At the conclusion - o f the conference nothing had occurred to in d icate that an agreem ent between th e city and the transit com p any will not be signed. The plan calls for organization of a separate corporation to operate the buses. The trolley com p a n y guar an tees to rem ove its rails from North Jam e s and D epot streets, w h ich are to be resurfaced w ith hitulithic pay- Four buses will be put into im m e d iate operation under the plan as It now stands. T h e fare on these buses w ill be seven cents w ith the transfer privilege to and from the cars of the Goshen-M iddletown trol ley line. One of the m o st im p o rtant features o f last night’s session w a s the rati fication of the city’s proposal that th e new corporation pay the city the difference or loss betw een th e fran chise tax now received for the lines to he discontinued, and the am o u n t to be charged for bus franchise.
