FIXED F On
STONE MT.
Railroad Commission Gives Troll
ley Company Right to Appeal
in Six Months.

The Railroad Commission has re-
fused in part and granted in part
the petition Of the Georgia Railway
and Power Company, fixing its pas
senger and freight rates over its new
Stone Mountain line.
The rate to Decatur, which is 10
cents on the express cars, is approved
but the rate to Stone Mountain ls
fixed at IS cents rather than 80. the
rate fixed by the company in its pc
titon.
The freight rates as prayed for are
granted, which makes them the same
as fourth class rates on the railroad.
the commission also changed the
proposed rates to otner points along
the line, but in doing this it readjust-
ed tie proposed rate zones.
AS finally granted, the rates author
lied are as follows: From Atlanta
to Decatur, 10 cents; to Scottdale, 10
cents; to Charleston, is cents; to
Mount Zion, 20 cents, and to Stone
Mountain, rs cents.
The petition to fix commutati OF
rates was dismissed, the commission
holding that it had no authority 70
fix rates other than to say what the
maximum rate shall be. Any rate
less than the maximum rate named
by the commission may be adjusted
at the roads discretion.
The commission also declined to
permit the road to charge fares with
out providing for some baggage ac-
commodation in addition. Baggage
In addition to passenger service VIII
be permitted reasonable extent, but
the baggage with each fare shall not
exceed $50 pounds without extra COM
penSation.
The petition originally filed by the
power company was bitterly fought
by the residents along the line and
the result is highly gratifying 20
them. The order likely will be ac-
copied by the company without pro-
test. but as experimental for six
months only.
The commission calls upon the
power company for detailed state
ment of the cost of the new line. and
its operation 1t also authorizes the
company to reopen The question of
rates after six months operation Of
the new line, in order that injustices,
If found to exist. may be righted.
