STREET RAIL WAYS
SUFFER BY DECISION
Supreme Court Held They Are Operat-
ing Beyond the Limits Of Their
Ordinances.

Washington, March 14.-The Chicago
street railway cases, involving the
question of the date Of the termination
of the franchises Of lines running from
the center OF Chicago to the north and
west sides, We're today decided by the
supreme court. The opinion was deliv-
cred by Justice Day, and reversed the
decision Of h circuit court for the
northern district of Illinois He held the
act Of the Illinois legislature Of 1861
had the effect of extending the charter
or the railway companies for ninety
nine years.
Chicago, March 14.-By TIE decision
OF the United States supreme court
handed down yesterday the city of Chi
cage obtains almost complete control
OF the local traction situation. The de-
clslon sustains the acts of the state
legislature extending the life of the
charters Of the street railway compan-
les TO nlnety-nine years, but does not
sustain the contention Of the compan-
les that contract rights which are lin
tied to fewer years than remain to the
charter life of the companies are also
extended. Contracts or ordinances of
the city limiting the use Of the streets
Ply the ompanies are upheld, and the
'lghts OF the companies in the streets
are held TO expire according to the ex-
pressed terms of the ordinances.
Inc oIlSlnal ordinance granted to
the street car companies were for
i~lnety-nine years inside the city limits.
as they existed in 1855. The companies
nave extended their tracks as the
boundaries Of the city have Deer en-
larged, and AVE claimed that the ex-
tended ines which were built under
franchises from the city were also or
erat1Ve under the ninety-nine year act.
Inc court has held, however, that the
year act extended only the
cnarter life OF the street car mpan
without extending their ordinances.
Inc court also denies the claim Of
the street car companies that they have
been vested with the executive right for
nlnety-nine years to enter into con-
tracts with the city for the occupancy
OF Chicago's streets for street railroad
purposes. The decision also holds that
the companies could only receive such
grant ais the city might give and upon
such terms and conditions. including
he time Of and grant of the city,
might prescribe.
The city has all along admitted that
the nlnety-nlne year act is valid, but
claimed that 1t did not extend the or
under which the street car
companies are operating at present.
1T is a sweeping victory for the city,"
said Mayor Dunno. There are no
ninety-nine year franchises In the city
Of Chicago, according to this decision,
and no definite or perpetual grants to
the outlying territory. We have the
traction companies now In a position
where we can negotiate for the pur-
chase of the lines. If they do not want
to sell at q fair price we can declare
our rights under the decisiOn,'
