By next week the electric cars will be running into the village. A trolley wire will cross the Ann Arbor railroad on the grade and a car will be jumped across and will run from the village to the railroad track and connect with another car at the track. Passengers will be required to walk across the Ann Arbor track to avoid liability on the part of the electric road for accidents.
