At Butte City Council tonight the ore hauling franchise request by the street railway company is expected to be deferred. The judiciary committee favors granting the franchise only if the company maintains the present transfer system for ten years and provides a cent fare to Columbia Gardens workers plus a transfer option, while Alderman Cohen presses for a ten cent through fare and royalty on ore shipments.
