ELWELL QUOTED ON
 RUNNING BOARD ORDER.
Utilities Commission Never Consider cd Police and Courts Would Back Up Their Order,

From a statement made by c. c. BlWeH. engineer of the state public utilities commission, it appears that the commission never considered their order prohibiting the riding on trolley running ieards to be enforced by ar- rest and by the courts, says the New Haven Union, Furthermore, it appears tFafsa the same interview that the Connecticut company is simply nak- lHg inc cleared running board matter an item in their rule books, has done everything according te the dietum of the utilities commission and that the treiieS company and the commission have already done everything that lies within the ssePe of their authority te make the eieaFeq running beard a realty: So far as producing eeHerets results are eeReesRed both the public utilities eemmissisR and the Cenaee= tieHt eemPaag have admittedly manu- taetuBed rules and laws that have Re sound legal foundations Their regu- -atisHs aFe net eHfeFeable hy the courts and the weight of legal apihien lh this city supports the idea of suits for f7i--2 arrest for arrests made in 's7ta21 of C7ia5a commission and com pany rules,

 In speaklng of the running board efder, Engineer HlWell saidi T never considered for a moment that the police would back up the ortler of the public utilities commission. Neither, so far as l know, did any of the other commissioners, Our order directly af- fected the Connecticut company, It was intended only through. the trolley company to reach the people, At the i nearing held on the matter in Hart | Iord a month or so ago the whole sum and substance of our decision calling | upon the company to clear the rdn- ming boards was this: We decided that the running board was not intended for carrying passengers any more thar i was the fender of the troIleys or theil bumpers Accordingly we decided tC order the company to pass rule for | bidding riding on the running boards as they have already prohibited.

 Action by Legislature Needed.
 Well, hardly that. You must re- member our orders apply only to cor. poratiOns and only affect the mass or directly. In this particular ln- stance the Connecticut company was directly concerned. Such an order as the commission passed needs legisla- tion by the state lawmakers to make the order law. It is to the legislature that the trolleymen must look if they wish the cleared running board rule to become law enforceable by the police.
 "Is 1t now understood that your ac- tivity in the running board matter is ended and that it is now between the trolleymen and the legislature that the matter of making an effective running board order rests?" the commissioner was finally asked.
 Yes; both the commission and the Connecticut company have done all that the law allows them to do in con- nection with the running board mat ter The commission does not possess legislative powers and 80 our running board order is considered nom enforca- ble by the courts, That is the whole case in a nutshell"
