ANOTHER TELEPHONE SUIT.
An Action to Restrain Company
From Removing an Instrument.

A petition was filed yesterday in III
Supreme Court of the District by Thom
s. Keene and Nicholas Auth, asking th;-.
the Chesapeake and Potomac Telephone
Company be restrained from removing its
telephone instrument and appliances from
th.s petitioners place of business at Ben
ming, d. c., and also to enjoin the COM
pany from refusing TO make telenhonic
connections with other branches of it's
lines.
The proceedings are brought under the
act of Congress of June 80, 1898, regulat-
ing the rates for telephone service in the
District, fixing the highest price for the
use of single instrument at $50 per an
mum. About 100 suits of similar nature
have been filed by the patrons of the
Chesapeake and Potomac Telephone Com
pany.
The first suit filed was that instituted
by Manning & Co, and was made test
case over a year ago. When the matter
came up for hearing on its merits. the
Supreme Court of the District held the
act of Congress, regulating the price for
telephone service, to be unconstitutional
The subscribers took an appeal to the
Court of Appeals FOR the District, which
tribunal reversed the judgment of the
lower court.
The telephone company took an appeal
from this decision to the Supreme Court
of the United States. The telephone sub
scribers are represented by Messrs. Bir-
ney q Woodland and Hemphill < Peter.
