A hearing was called on the 18th in

was heard, the commission, in its opin-
ion today, states that it could not find
sufficient cause to rescind its original
order of refusal.
Witnesses testified at this last hear
ing that the Baltimore and Chic had
provided ample facilities caring for
all the traffic the new road intended
to serve the Curtis Bay section. The
commission declares that some of the
ideas and declarations in the appl.
cation are vague. principally as to the
road proceeding in the direction of
Fairfield This is held to mean one
mile. or perhaps 100 miles.
In any event the effort to create
the road has thus far failed, but
whether N not further efforts will be
made is predetermined. The opinion
of the commission is that the road is
not common carrier within the
meaning of law, and was not a public
necessity.
