REPLIES TO PLEA
FOR LOWER FARE
Public Service Corporation AM
swers Demand for Twenty
five Cent Rate.

The Public Service Corporation

recently sent to the commission a re-
quest that the trolley company be COM
nelled to renew the rate of twenty-five
cents for an excursion ticket good be-
tween this city and New York.
The reply to the COM
nlaint states that the complaint is real
~ one in relation TO interstate tralnc'
and not within the jurisdiction or the
Board of Public Utility Commissioner
for tbs State nor within the scope OF
the powers and franchises owned
operated and controlled by the COM
pany.
The also claims that 1t mas

! Messenger on its cars to travel from
any noint in the city of Newark TO the
ferry at the foot of Exchange place IN
Jersey CITY for the sum of ten cents
and from that point TO Newark for the
same mount.
The reply to the complaint further
states that it does not control or oper-
ate any ferry between Jersey City n
New York and is unable to transport
nassengers between those two cities
under anv of it's franchises. II Is
shown. however, that the rate Of fare

provided the passenger purchases the
tickets in strips of ten at a time. for
twenty-five cents.
The claim is made, therefore, that
the travelling public is at the present
time able to go to New YORK ana re-
turn for twenty-five cents, the amount
specified in the complaint or commas
sioner Mungle, the only condition being
that the passenger shall purchase the
ferry tickets from the ferry company.
The company further declines TO ac-
cent the responsibility of the conditions
set forth in the complaint as being
mart of the original ordinances affect
ing the operation of the Newark n
South Orange Railway Company,
claiming that the ordinances locating
the tracks of the company We're not
operative nor intended to be until the
South Orange company or Its success
sors operated a line of cars to Jersey

tween this city and New oYrk and that
