COMMUTERS WIN
 PARTIAL VICTORY
 IN FARE DECISION

Washington, July 10-A decision in the long standing fight on passenger rates between the New York, New Haven 6 Hartford railroad and the commuters along it's lines has been handed down by the Interstate Com merce Commission. The decision con stitutes a partial victory for both the road and it's committing patrons, hold ing, as it does, that the co1nmutat ton fares from points in Connecticut into New York city are not unreasonable with the exception of fares in the twenty-five to thirty-five mile zone, which are condemned as excessive.
 Taking Riverside 30.6 miles from New York, as a basis of fixing fares in this zone, the Interstate Commerce Commission finds that a, reasonable fare should. not be in excess of S9 25.
 The withholding of the reduced rate fifty-trip family tickets from Connec- ticut commuters while extending this privilege to New Workers was held to be discrimination
 The commission used the PennsyI- vania railroad service into New York from points in Pennsylvania. and New Jersey as a basis of comparison in de- terminging the New Haven fares. It was found on the whole that the New Haven system furnished lower com-i mutation fares than the Pennsylvania, but that the difference of income was 1udO0 up fDy a. SToaISr patronage over the New Haven lines.
 New York. July 1o-The episode known as the Commuters War began in the summer of 1910 when the rail roads in the metropolitan district rais- ed the cost Of getting into and out of New York The matter was taken before the public service commissions in this state, New Jersey and Connec- ticut and more or less satisfactory ad- justments were made except in Con- necticut-
 The Interstate Commerce Commis sion began an inquiry in August, 1910. into the rates between New York and Connecticut points on the New York, New Haven & Hartford railroad This increase ranged from 20 to 40 per cent.
 Early this year the commuters on the New York side of the line obtain. ed from the upstate Public Service Commission an order reducing the rate from Port Chester. The Green wfch Board of Trade made common cause with their brother commuters across the boundary and the position was taken that if it was just to reduce the Port Chester rate it must be equal 1y right to lower that Of Greenwich and nearby cities.
 Counsel for the railroad said the company would go fighting. He complained that the roads business was being interfered with by the ac- tivity of the investigators
