Stating clearly that the provisions Of
it's fra nch:s, have not been violated and

iSting fare zones between AloundSrille
and Wheeling are not discriminatory
against this city. tho Wheeling Traction
Company has filed its answrr 10 the bill
Of complaint filed recently with the Pub
lie Service Commission. by the city OF
Moundsville Tho Traction company as
suInes the position that II has not rlu-
lated its franchise by failing Ia estab-
fish the fifteen minute service between
this city and Wheeling during rush hours
OF mornings and evenings. The answer
promises improved service when the i'm
proreinents contemplated In the recently
granted franchise amendment are COM
pleted These include viaduct over
PARIS run. at the foot OF Jefferson ave-
nus. and a loop In the lower part OF town.
The company also adds In its answer to
the complaint that 1t is short Of neccs-
sary equipment for maintaining Il fiji
teen mlute service. Cars and other
equipment ordered for shipment last be-
cenlher have not " been dclivred.

is III Il position a, present to furnish the

In tho matter or changing the fare
zones between MuundSville and Wheel

denies that Moundsvlllc is discriminate

authorities are in no sense certain or
forcing the change in zones, but there
seems To I've good presidents in the law
for establishing fact that the pres
ent zones discriminate against Mounds
Vile. they say. There promises TO be
quite q legal battle before the fare zone
question is settled.
