Silent AS TO
LIFE OF RATES

Neither affirmative nor negative
replies can be secured from the Inter
Island officials as to whether the in
creased passenger rates put into effect
yesterday morning will be continued
after October Is, when the order Of
the public utilities commission COM
mands the company to- reduce its rates
to the August /, 1916, basis.
Indications are that some effective
legal means will have to be found to
cause a change OF the new rates. ,Ad-
vertising material, schedule and cor
respondence are being distributed,
which give with an air of permanency
the announcement of the raise of
prices for passenger service.

is no increase in the passenger rates.
As, before round trip tickets good for

of steamship rates is being consider
ed by the attorneys of the lnter-Tsland
company according to Judge w L..
Whitney of the law firm of Smith,
