REDUCED FARE AT STAKE.
Georgia Road Brings Suit Against
Railroad Commission.

Atlanta, Ca, Oct. S.-whether re-
sduced passenger fares shall continue
in Georgia. is the practical issue in
volved in the suit in equity of the Cen
trail of Georgia railroad against the
state railroad commission, argument
on which began today in the United
States district court before Judge
Newman. The Central of Georgia
while at present complying with the
commissioner order requiring eheir
maximum fare to be 2 II cents a mile,
allege that the reduction amounts to
confiscation of property.
The state demurred on the grounds
that the railroad commission and the
governor can not be made parties to
the suit and upon this point rests the
future life of the case. If the courts
decide adversely the states counsel as
sert the road will have no case in
court until it first violates the order
of the commission and Is prosecuted
by the state. Former United states
