RAIL WAY APPEALS
IN BIG TAX CASE
Richmond, Fredericksburg and
Potomac Goes 20 United
States Supreme Court.
CALL FOR UNITED BOARD
Will Hold Meeting February IS.
TAFT Not Likely to Get
Free License.

For the purpose of obtaining final
review of its claims to exemption from
taxation. the Richmond t'rederclls-
burg and Potomac Railroad Company
yesterday took an appeal 10 the SUI
preme Court Of the United states. Clerk
II. Stewart Jones. of .hc Supreme
Court Of Appeals of Virginia. spent
the day preparing the papers.
The procedure is entirely different
from that In State courts. No prelim-
mary granting OF a writ Of error is
necessary. the appeal being granted
yesterday by Judge James Keith, presi :
dent of the Virginia court Clerk
Joseph p. Brady, of the United states
Court here, Will Issue the writs, and
then Clerk Jones will issue the citation
in the name Of William Howard Taft,
President of the United states which
Will be signed by Judge Keith.
Bond In the appeal was given yes
terday in the sum of $4,000. with the
Virginia Trust Company US security
A1ny Pay Big sum.
Unless this appeal is successful in
the court of last resort, the Richmond.
Fredericksburg and Potomac will be
forced TO pay the State accrued fran
chise taxes with penalties amounting
to about 100000. This Is In addition 10
whatever may be collected for taxes
on personal property and on tracks
and other real estate in the cities and
counties. The total Will not lmprob-
ably be 100000.
The point relied upon III the appeal
is that the state Of Virginia. in en-
acting the provision which the SUI
'premc Court has said works forfeit
turc of its character exemption from
taxation. has violated the section Of
the Constitution Of the United States
which forbids any State enacting a
law impairing the obligations of a
contract
