TAXICABS SUBJECT TO
CONTROL, RULES Court
Justice Robb Declares Utilities Com
mission Has Jurisdiction Over
+ Transportation Companies.

The local campaign for the reduc-
tion of taxicab rates, which has been
supported from its inception by The
Washington Herald, won a signal vic
tory yesterday in the District Court of
Appeals when IL was decided taxi
cab is a common carrier and that the
Public Utilities Commission has juris-
diction over taxicab companies here
The decision was rendered in connec-
ton with the appeal of the Terminal
Taxicab Company from a decision of
the District Supreme Court. The Court
Of Appeals affirmed the lower courts
ruling.
Justice Robb handed down the Court of
Appeals decision. Justice Stafford, of
the District Supreme Court. denied the
petition of the taxicab company to pre-
vent the Public Utilities Commission
from assuming Jurisdiction over it.
The case grew out of the proposed in
vestigation Of taxicab rates by the COM
mission several months ago. The taxi
cab company maintained 1t carried on
merely a private livery business.
We think" said Justice Robb, in his
decision. that the company is a COM
mon carrier within the scope, intent, and
meaning of the public utilities act Its
business is public and not private, and
that business should be and is subject to
reasonable regulation for the benefit of
the public

AIRCRAFT, NOT "SHIPS
OF WAR;" RULES BRYAN
Secretary of State Disagrees with Ger

Aero Shipments Illegal.

The State Department declines to accept
the contention OF the German Ambassa-
dor, Count Won Bernstorff. TO the effect
that hydroaeroplanes are vessels OF

country to belligerents Is the duty OF the
United States government to prevent
This Is the first time the question Of the
status OF these air craft in war has ever
been raised.
Ambassador Bernstorfr, in a note
communicated to the State Department
January 19, declared that the Curtiss
firm was engaged in sending hydro
aeroplanes to England. He said:
There is no doubt hydroaeroplanes
must be regarded as war vessels whose
delivery to belligerent states by neu-
trails should be stopped under Article
s. OF the thirteenth convention of the
second Hague conference OF October is.
1907"
To this Secretary Bryan replies:
THE fact that a hydroaeroplane is
fitted with apparatus to rise from and
slight upon the sea does not, in my
opinion, give II the character OF vessel
any more than the wheels attached to
an aeroplane fitting II to rise from and
allght upon land give the latter the char
acter Of a land vehicle
Secretary Bryan points out that in the
official German contraband lists for the
war, "airships and flying machines" are
listed as conditional contraband of war.
not as absolute contraband. He reminds
the Ambassador that no treaty TO which

Keep the Children
Bright and Happy

Happy youngsters must be
healthy. The digestive organs of
children get out of order as readily
as do those OF their elders. and the
result is equally distressing. When
the bowels are cloGged with an ac-
cumulation o. refuse from the
stomach the child naturally becomes
cross and fretful from the discom-
fort, and is often punished for tenn
per when medical attention is really
what is needed.
The next time your child is cross
and unhappy, without apparent
reason, try giving it a mild laxative.
DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is a
mild, pleasant tasting combination
Of simple laxative herbs with pep
sin, and is especially recommended
for children because of its freedom
from all opiate or narcotic drugs
and its gentle action. 1t is sold in
drug stores everywhere. A free
trial bottle can be obtained by writ
ing to DR.. W. B. Caldwell, 524

Special Cable to The Washington Herald
London, Feb. 1.-The London Daily
Telegraph tomorrow will say:
The German cruiser raid Of last Sun
day week had more significance than a
mere repetition OF the Scarborough ex-
ploit
The best information, confirmed by
several significant orders. is that the
birthday present to the Kaiser was in
tended TO be much more substantial than
the slaughter of few noncombatants.
When the German battle cruiser squad
ron came into the North Sea there already
was lying at one Of their naval ports,
fully manned and equipped, a fotilIa OF
transports full OF troops.
THE enemy's plan was to lure our
cruisers to destruction among the mines
and submarines of Heligoland and when
that had been accomplished. to dispatch
the transports on Sunday night at full
speed TO the English coast, which it was
intended they should reach on Monday
morning."
