John Kramer, of Maria Stein, as chair
man, and Fred Goecke, of Cassella, as

almost every night in some part of the

LOCAL INTEREST
IN THE DECISION
SUPREME Courts Reversal Of Inter
state Commission Ruling I'm
portant-Other Cases

A word of caution has been drop
ped by the United State Supreme
Court to the Interstate Commerce
Commission against issuing orders
based on its own Investigations rath-
er than upon the tes'.mony of wit.
nesses.
The court. speaking through Justice
Holmes, cited the commission S
statement that this had been done
when it issued an order requiring
the Baltimore and Ohio Southwest
ern Railroad Company and the Nor
folk and Western Railway Company
to grant physical connections in
Southern Ohio TO the Cincinnati and
Columbus Traction Company an in
terburban electric road.
The commission held that the elc-
trio was a lateral branch line of
railroad" within the meaning Of the
law, but the Supreme Court sustain
ed the Commerce Court in holding
that the electric hne appeared to
have been built without regard to
the existence of the steam roads and
was not a lateral branch" The or
der requiring the steam roads to
grant physical connections with the
trolley line is annulled by the decis-
ion.
The word of caution" handed
down TO the commission directly
criticises the fact that the commits
sion, according to its report, based
its conclusions more largely upon its
own investigation than upon the tes-
timony of witnesses.
As the case in question is nearly
identical with the lase now before
the Interstate Commerce Commission
in which Frederick shippers ask
that the Baltimore and Ohio and
Northern Central make physical con-
nections with the Frederick railroad,
the Supreme Court decision is at
tracing considerable interest in that
city.
Some of those interested in the
proceedings have taken the SUI
preme Court decision as unfayorable
to their claim. 1t is a noticeable
fact, that although the decision of the
commission ordered the physical
connection to be made, this order
was annulled by the supreme Court,
although the higher court did not
pass upon the question of the power
of the commission to require steam
roads to grant connections with cleo
trio lines as such.
