n ASING its action on several
n grounds, one being that the com
mission was without jurisdiction
in reaching decision ordering the
company to return to the August 1,
1916, basis of rates after October 10,
this year the Inter-Island Steam Nayi-
cation Co., through its attorneys,
Smith, Warren and Whitney. today
served on the Public Utilities Commits
sion formal notice of appeal from the
decision to the supreme court.
This afternoon the company is to
serve the commission with praecipe
demanding that all records and other
data in connection with the recent in
vestigation of the Inter-Isiand be for
wsrded to the supreme court. Accom-
panying the appeal is bond of $50. :
On the day following the handing
down of the decision ordering the
company to return to the 1916 basis Of
rates, the company issued an an
nouncement to the effect that increas-
ed rates would be placed in effect i'm
mediately. Officers of the company
are silent on the question Of whether
these increased rates will remain in
effect after October IT,.
One ground for the appeal is that
the Public UTILITIES Commission was
not granted any jurisdiction over a
carrier by sea, the act being confined
to gas, electric light and power, teiet
phone, railroad and street railway
: IS - i lfsffE In1p6AHnt sfifl.
is that on september {, 1916, the same
congress which passed the act, under
which jurisdiction is claimed, created
shipping board, and that board has
ruled that the InterIsland is under
its jurisdiction, is obliged to file its
rates and the board determines
whether they are just and reasonable.
A further point is that the Public
Utilities Commission was proceeding
under a section of the act, section
2225, which authorized it to make in:
vestigations, and without any notice
to the Inter.Island, the commission en-
tered an order fixing rates, which theF
can only do under section 2234, after
a hearing with notice that they intend
to fix rates. 5a -. 2
The company further contends that,
on the facts found, instead of making
a profit of las per cent, even accordt
ing to the alleged unfair method OF
computation used by the commission,
the profit last year would not exceed
z 1-2 per cent, which is declared to be
an unreasonably small profit for this
hazardous business. '...."... ...:.
It is further commended that the COM
mission is trying to regulate things
which took place before July 1, 1913,
when the public utility act went into
effect; and that at the most the COM
mission can only deal with what has
transpired since, and the commission
admits that the company has ample
assets against all the capital stock
which has been issued, it is held.
Attorney r. w. Breckons and the
Law firm of Cactle and Wilmington are
associated with the law firm OF Smith,
Warren and Whitney as counsel for
the Inter-Isiand.
