FIRE DOES NOT COST LICENSE
JUSTICE DUNWELL GIVES AN OPINION
ON SOME RAINEs LAW POINTS.

Lyons. n. Y. July H.-Justice DunwelI to-day
handed down decision interpreting several sec
uons Of the Raines law hitherto not judicially
passed upon.
= For forty years prior to the enactment of the
Raines law the Canoga Hotel had been in existence
at Canoga Seneca County. The hotel and barn
were burned September 49, 1897. In 1898 the own
er sold the premises which destitute OF build

cate without securing the consent of the owners
OF the dwellings within two hundred feet of the
hotel He answered the question, "Since what date
mas said place been occupied continuously for such
trafhc OF liquors and for such hotel traffc?" by
saying that the place had not been used for any
thing else for the last forty years
Nation c. Pierson brought an action To have
the certificate cancelled on the ground of the
omission of the consent of the dwelling house own
ers within two hundred feet He held that the
answers given by Reigel were false and evasive
ana that the premises had been abandoned for
hotel purposes
Justice Dunwen holds that the answers were

hEIGHI RAIE QUITTING AT AN END.
AS GOOD CONDITION AS EVER KNOWN.

Commissioner J. F. Goddard Of the Trunk Line
Commission in speaking yesterday upon the
marked change for the better in the railroad rate
situation, said:
The general determination the part of the
Ialroads TO maintain the regular tariff is largely
due, l presume, to the community Of ownership
that has been brought about in the West as we'll
as the East A large number of the principal rail-
roads are now controlled by few powerful in
teTest and the application of sound business prn-
clples is being insisted upon The men in control
have set their faces against wasteful rate war
fares. "
Mr Goddard's views bear out the assertions of
western railroad men that cutting on east
bound shipments of freight has ceased and so far
as can be ascertained the regular tariffs are now
strictly maintained. eastbound and westbound
commissioner L. P. Farmer of the passenger
department of the Trunk Line Association saws
Ta4t IN the general conditions governing passenger
to be. There is rate cutting and anna "a
entity no friction in any quarter A meeting
or the Trunk Line Passenger Committee will he
