Thomas Lowry Loses Suit at supe.
rior, Wis.
Superior, Wis, April 24.-Thomas
Lowry's famous twelve-year extension
of a street railway franchise in this
city was knocked out in a decision by
Judge Vinje in the circuit court.
The judge holds in the case of the
state against the Duluth Street Rail
way company that the fact that the
company, which is a foreign corpora
ton, had not filed its articles with
the secretary Of state at the time it
accepted the extension of the fran
chise makes the extension void. The
court does hold, however, that the in
terests had a right to come in and
purchase the original franchise, which
now has about fourteen years to run
until expiration.
