GAN FIX SCHEDULES SUPREME COURT DECIDES THAT RAILWAYS MAY BE COMPEL LED TO RUN CONNECTING
 TRAIN.

Washington, May.=The Supreme Cogrt of the United States decided in effect that the railroad commission CTS in tho state of North Carolina can compel q railroad company operat- ing in that state to so adjust its sched- ule as tD accommodate passengers on other lines fsom any particular part of the state. The opinion was deliver ed by Justice White in the case of the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad vs. the Corporation Commission of NortA Carolina. The case arose out of the order issued by the commissioners di- recting the railroad company to make connection at Selma at 2:25 D. III. with train on another line running from the eastern part of the state with the object of accommodating passengers whose destination was Raleigh. The railroad company resisted the order on the ground that it could not be complied with without putting on special train which would involve ex- tra expense. This, it was centended, amounted to taking property without process of law.
 The commission justied it's course on the ground that compliance with the order was necessary to aeeommo- date q large part ef the public. The Supreme Court of North Carolina held against the railroad company, and it's decision was affirmed by the action of the Supreme Court of the United States on the ground that the order of the commission does not affect rates, but is a proper act of state reg ulatiOns
