Utilities Owned by 1ndl- viduals SuSt a ined On)
 Appeal That the corporation commission has the right to regulate the rates of pubic utilities owned by individuals as well as those maintained by corporations IS the decision rendered by the United States circuit court in San Francisco yesterday. Word to this effect was received in a telegram from Attorney General Bullard to the commission. The jurisdiction of the commission over individuals owning and operating public utilities was attacked by Ida A. Van Dyke, owner of the Granite 1 Springs Water company, which sup ! plies water to the town of Miami. The commission issued an order reducing ! the rates of service to Miami consum- CTS. The matter was taken before the | superior court of Marcopa county on i an injunction process, but the acton | of the commission was upheld by Judge l Phillips. The case was then taken into i the federal court, which has now up 1 held the decision of the lower court in refusing to grant an injunction, and has settled the matter in favor of the commission
 | A recent order of the commission ordering the extension of water mains and service to the Live Oak addition 1 has been temporarily restrained by an order issued by the United States court yesterday. and no steps will be taken l in to enforce the order until a further investigation has been made. sJai.H IN NEW HOME-A L.
