A meeting will be held tonight for the ex rncelTinc the Joint re- port and taking It under consideration.

It la believed that with the two engineers reaching an agreement and adjusting the differences between certain Vital features of their reports, the future work of the committee will be made comparatively asy and further considerations of pending ordinances will be relieved ot tbe controversies that have been occasioned by the submission ot a large number of opinions the matter. LAST HEARINGS TODAY. The committee meets at 13 o'clock this luoralng to hear suggestions from the Illinois Manufacturers' It Is believed that this will be the last Instance Where the committee will receive i- nf men deairlnK to Dre- sent new or separate arguments in the matter, and that the committee will pro-need without further delay to the work ef deciding upon a plan for the arrangement of taHway terminals In the city and the location of the proposed Pennsylvania station. The only major point on which the mem bers of the committee look for an important difference of. opinion la on the question of electrification.

Certa'n labor unions have declared opposition, to electrification of the terminals, contending that 11 would. "create human (laughter-houses." ELECTRIFirATIOJI IS OPPOSED. ot the city, council who lay claim to union affiliations have asserted their Intention to nght any suggestion that the terminals be electrified. This la particularly true of aldermen who will re-election this spring and desire to draw the labor vote. It Is declared, however, many members cf the council hold that if the city is to attempt a solution of the terminal question predicated on a broad grasp of present and future needs of the city, electrification of all terminals should bo mad obligatory, both as a means of eliminating amoke and gases and it possible to operate trains la tunnels or deDfessed trackway with less objectionable features to passen gers.

UCAL. Sl'BWAV8 CONSIDERED. Consideration of a dual system of subways for Chicago probably will be taken np by the subcommittee or the local transportation committee during ita meeting tomorrow. Following the study a week ago of the Boston subways opinions were expressed by many aldermen that a similar system would fit best the needs of this' city. Be- V.

At 'present the committee has before it two separate ordinances, the first for the Virfaee lines and the second for the elected companies. WOIXD REMOVE OBSTRUCTIONS. It is fplt that It wnnlI Ha Imnl.

range for the combining of the two plans -and thus do away entirely with obstructions in tbe down town district caused by the present employed by the respective companies. Alderman' Albert Fisher Is one of the strongest supporters ot the Boston Idea "I believe the plan could be worked out ere to the greatest advantage." he said. "In the first place streets now congested would be relieved-, by the removal of the surface car line tracks, and In the second place the menace of the" loop structure -would be overcome. The Idea would not only relieve the down town situation but It also would furnish better transportation. BOSTON PLAJI MEETS comprehensive subway system has proved practical In New Tork.

but conditions in Chicago are not similar, nor are the needs nearly ao great. The Gotham subways extend entirely through congested areas, while in Chicago that area principally is the business, district. For that reason I am convinced that a plan similar to that in Boston would furnish Chicago what Jt feeds and at the sm Mm a would represent something that actually could be built." Alderman Eugene Block postponed the meeting of the committee called for this Y. I I 1. uiuB uc.auiD UI Jia COUUJCl WHO IBS session of the council terminal body.

Tomorrow's meeting probably will -determine the schedule to be followed in the handling of tbe two ordinances as well as bring the dual system question to a head.

"--He suggests that the great need Is the empowering of the Judge In charge to order a Jail sentence as well as a fine. Accidents during the year show Increase over the previous year, but Judge Fry suggests that in view of the great in crease In the number of automobiles op erated, the percentage is less.
