ARBITRARY CHARGE
OVER PALATKA BRIDGE
Will No Longer be Enforced
by Fla. East Coast
Railway.

Tallahassee, Oct. 19-The Railroad
Commissioners have won two cases OF
considerable Importance to patrons OF
the Florida East Coast Railway Com
pany.
One of the cases arose from the ar
bitrary charge added to the regular
mileage fare, for passengers carried
over the bridge at Jacksonville and
Palatka.
The other case arose out of the re-
fusal of the Florida East Coast Kali
way Company to observe Rule 10, pre-
scribed by the Commissioners, by
which a reduction of 10 per cent from
the regular rate for the distance haul
ed, is required of each railroad, where
freight is hauled over two lines, and
a reduction of 20 per cent from the
regular rate, where hauled over three
or more lines.
These cases were both decided err
ly in 1915 by the Supreme Court OF
Florida in favor of the Railroad Com
missioners, but the Railway Company
appealed to the Supreme Court of the
United States. Recently these ap-
peals have been dismissed, and the
judgments of the Supreme Court OF
Florida in favor of the Commissioners
are now effective.
Hon. L. C. Massey represented the
Commissioners in the bridge arbitra-
ries case and Hon. F. M. Hudson rep
resented them in the Rule 10 case.
The bridge arbitraries case came
about in this way. Where a passen-
ger bought ticket from one station
to another, and had to travel over ths
bridge of the East Coast Railway al
Jacksonville or the one at Palatka, 81
was added to the regular SC fare, thai
is, the passenger was required to pay
SC extra to the East Coast Railway
Company for travelling over the bridge
at Jacksonville and the one at Palatka
The Commissioners ordered the Rail
way Company to cease making this
arbitrary charge, which they refused
to do. and the case has been in the
Courts ever since, with the result as
above stated. Now the passengers
will not be required to pay this extra
Sc, and will pay only the regular 81
rate.
To give some concrete Illustration
of the effect of the enforcement of th'
Commissioners Freight Rule 49,, i
might be stated that the first clas
rate heretofore from Tallahassee tt
Miami has been $164 per hundred
rounds-the rate with the operatio,
of Rule 19 on the Florida East Coas
Railway will be S1.54, and for all 9th
er distances and classes, the reduction
will be in proportion.
