jefferson City April 16.-A
ruling announced by Judge John
q. Slate, in the Cole county cir.
cult court sustains the ruling of
the public service commission, re-
quiring the Missouri Pacific to
operate sleeping car service on its
train between st. Louis and Car
thage and Joplin.
The Missouri Pacific will an
peal from this ruling to the SUI
preme court. This sleeper service
it is claimed by the railroad is
maintained at a considerable loss.
The reason, as shown by the
testimony taken in the hearings
before the commission, is due to
the fact that the st. Louis and
San Francisco railroad, being the
shorter and most direct line be-
tween st. Louis and Carthage and
Joplin, gets the bulk of the bust
