May Have To Measure
Trunks Under New Order
If Railroad Traffic Associations Are Successful in Effort to
Define Size of Containers, There Bids Fair to Be
~%% %~T Trouble for Travellers.

II the hearing which is now being
held before IN examiner of the inter-
state commerce commission should be
decided In favor Of the railroad traf-
fc associations. the travelling public
will have to measure their trunks be-
fore taking Il trip or. else they are
liable to have to pay excess baggage
or perhaps to send their baggage by
other means of transportation. Early
in the year the traffic associations Of
the country agreed upon a change in
the rules governing the ~transporta-
ton of baggage so that no trunk
which measured more than As inches
In length could be transported as free
baggage and none measuring over 70
inches could be transported as bag
gage at all. The rule was to have
gone into effect on July / but was
held up by a protest to the interstate
commerce commission.
According to local baggage Of
ficials, the change would not have Il
great effect on local traffic as most Of
the trunks are we'll within the size
prescribed by the proposed rules.
There are. however, some who would
be severely hit by the change.
Members of the theatrical profess
sion were the first to ask the commits
sion for relief from the alleged bur-
densome rule. Many of them. in let
tiers on file with the commission. de-
clare that they will be obliged to go
out OF business if the rules are put
into effect. Among these are a harp

TAXI DRIVERS
MAY Be LIABLE
Overcharges Have Been
Made and City Officials
Will Prosecute Them.

Some Grand Forks taxi and cab
drivers have been overcharging fares,
according to complaints made with
city oficials, and repetition of such
~offenses,. If reported, will result in
prosecution and the revocation Of the
license held by the owners.
Double fare has been charged in
eyera( instances. to PATRONS who have
used taxis and carriages after the
midnight hour. according to the COM
plants lodged. and It Is in that re-
spect particularly that the operations
of the drivers have proven obnoxious
to h passengers.
Fail to Exhibit Prices.
That there is not a company OBJ.
Grating taxicabs or hacks in the city
that is complying with the city with
respect to the display Of fares Is an
other contention of city officials, and
they will make a canvass of the sit
uation to bring about the display
called for.
Under the ordinance it is provided
that In each and every vehicle used
for the transportation of passengers,
there shall be displayed the schedule
of prices charged. If such price lists
are maintained by any of the operat-
ing companies, the city officials have
so far been unable to locate them.
Will Deal Harshly.
There is no excuse for the over
charge. and 1t is strictly against the
law" said City Attorney J. B. Wine
man Yesterday. and we intend to en-
force the law to the letter with re-
spect to UGH actions on the parts of
drivers. The complaints have beer
numerous during the past few weeks,
and dancing parties seem to have beer,
mulchted on several occasions by the
over Jealous drivers. We hope that
anyone who suffers from an over
charge in this respect will report to
the city officials at once and brins
about a prosecution. The license of
the operating company will be re-
voked. and the penalty of a fine will
be demanded.
