CEMETARY HOUSE RAILWAYS.
Mr. King's bill [H. R. 404] to authorize cemetery associations to own or construct, or to purchase and operate horse railways, being taken up in order on the third reading, he stated that its object and its special emergency here is, to preserve the communication by horse rail between the city of Indianapolis and Crown Hill Cemetery. That horse railway being about to be sold, it is desirable to have a law which shall authorize the Crown Hill Cemetery Association to purchase and operate it. The bill was finally passed the House of Representatives - yeas 66, nays 8.
