but in all the sitting rooms there would be
ever so many fine, spacious, solid tables on

.T.R. &P. BARRED
FROM FEDERAL
COURT
TRACTION LAWYERS OUTWIT-
TED BY CITY ATTORNEYS
IN FIRST LEGAL SKIRMISH.

Assistant City Attorney Frank
Baker ran a race with Lawyer
Howe of the Stone-Webster IN
terests to Seattle yesterday and
won. The city attorneys there
by outwitted the lawyers of the
T. r. & P. company In the FIVE
cent fare fight and won the first
round OF the legal skirmish.
The city without saying any
thing slipped suit into superior
court yesterday morning while the
Attorneys for the other side wer.
getting up their papers. The city
wanted this litigation in the stata
courts where couple of months
will decide 1t. The T. r. & p.
company wanted 1t in federal
court where it would drag Cor
five years.
When Attorney Howe appears1
in federal court yesterday after
noon asking Judge Donworth for
an Injunction to estop the city
from enforcing five cent fare, the
city's case was already in court.
Judge Donworth refused to hcfr
the case as he was recently a
Stone-Webster lawyer. He re.
. ferred Howe to Judge Hanford.
Howe started for Seattle. And
SO did Assistant City Attorney
Frank Baker. Baker won the
race. got the ear of Judge Han
ford and exacted a promise from
him that he would not make any
order for the street car people
without first giving the city D
chance to be heard.
This practically shuts the case
out of federal court and it will
be tired in the superior court, aui
cannot be taken beyond the state
supreme court.
