NEW YORK ROADS
TO RAISE RATES
Will Follow Example Set
by the New Haven.

Unofficial information has reached the
Interstate Commerce Commission that
all railroads out Of New York City. with
the possible exception Of the New York.
New Haven and Hartford. will file with
the commission new passenger tariffs.
showing horizontal increases in passenger
rates, particularly communication rates.
Several weeks ago the New York, New
Haven and Hartford Standardized its
rates by making an increase all along
the line in passenger fares. and later
also increased its rates to commuters.
According 10 information that has
reached Washington, other railroads en-
tering New York VIII now follow the
example set by the New Haven. It is
predicted the increase in passenger rates
Will be the most comprehensive made in
recent years.
The New York, New Haven and Hart
ford Railroad made a horizontal Increase
Of cents per ticket on all tickets sold
by the company Of $50 and over. The
raise which the New York. New Haven
and Hartford made in sixty-trip commu-
tation tickets was a substantial one. The
increase in wages was given as the chief
reason for the increases by the New
York, New Haven and Hartford. and 4
Is likely that other New York roads viii
raise their rates on the same ground.
