ARGUMENTS ARE ENDED
IN electric RATE CASE
Justice Gould Will Announce Deci-
sion on Injunction Plea
Tomorrow.

After hearing argument of counsel.
Justice Gould of the District Supreme
Court today took under consideration
the question of granting n temporary
Injunction against the public utilities
commission to prevent the enforcement
of the reduced rate for furnishing cleo
trio current which the commission has
required of the Potomac Electric Power
Company He VIII announce his deci-
sion tomorrow.
In opposing the temporary injunction
Corporation Counsel Syme contended that
there exists grave doubt If Congress did
not intend to suspend the injunctive pow
er of the court In the matter of rates.
He admitted that a temporary restraining
order Is provided In the law to suspend
orders of the commission. such as ex-
tensions of roads. schedules and the like.
He cited section SO of the utilities act,
which provides that such tolls and rates
passed by the commission shall be in
force and prima facie reasonable until
finally determined unreasonable by the
court"
Attorneys ]. i. Darlington and J. S.
Barbour of counsel for the power com
pany denied that the section suspended
the courts power of Injunction, which
they pointed out. is distinctly retained
by the following section. They asserted
that even with the injunction the rates
demanded by the commission would be
practically in force The lawyers sug-
gested that bills be rendered to the
consumers unuer the IU-cfnt rate ana
that certificates for n rebate of . cents
for each kilowatt hour be given when
the bill is paid
Should the utilities commission final
iy prevail in the courts, they said. the
company would redeem the certificates.
On the other hand counsel urged that
If collections were made at the "en-
forced rate the company would be
powerless to collect the difference from
the consumer when the courts, after q
delay of probably three years, should
hand down a decision in favor of the
company.
Mr.. Darlington pointed out that the
penalty provided for violation of the
order of the commission would amount
10 S6,000,00o month. He said the law
exacted 5000 for each violation, and as
the company has 10000 consumers 1t
would take only two months to wipe
the corporation out of existence. He
pointed out disparities in the testi-
mony Of the commissions experts and
the valuation adopted by the commits
sion on which the rates We're fixed
The foresight in purchasing the Grea,
Fails power site at an expense of ST.
100000 was ignored by the commission
the lawyer said, and the company, be-
cause it was not now using the prop
erty, was not allowed one cent in the
valuation. He claimed the figures OF
the commission are 100000 short BY
the admissions made in the answer tc
the injunction proceeding.

1t is likely that the trade excursion
from Missoula to Hamilton planned for

mercc will have a herald to advise the
Bitter Root people of it's coming. a
local young man has VOLUNTEERED to act
as the modern Paul Revere. and will,
If present plans are worked out. ride
down the valley on horseback q few
hours before the coming of the auto
mobile caravan. The hardy horse
man will make the ride on a relay of
horses and it is expected that at least
half a dozen relays, and perhaps more,
will have to be provided. 1t may also
be necessary to furnish n relief Paul
midway down the valley.
The nature of the advance man is
not yet assured, as it is said that some
| of the excursonists favor Il horse.
while others are DESTROYS of having a
Ford herald their coming. If the
horseman does make the journey, he
| will start about o'clock Sunday
morning, several hours ahead OF the
