veaIed for the first time on the ar
rival in this city yesterday of the

For war rea sons news of the ac-

OLD DOMINION PATRONS
MANDAMUs THE |. c. C.
Ask That Commission Be Required
to Assume Jurisdiction Over Capt.
tai Traction Company.

Herman f. Gasch and other commute
ers of the Washington and Old Domin-
ion railway today filed In the District
Supreme Court a petition in mandamus
Commission to take Jurisdiction over
the Capital Traction Company in the
controversy pending between the
Washington and Old Dominion Rail-
Justice Gould cited the commission to
show cause September II why the writ
OF mandamus should not issue.
The petition. filed through Attorneys
b. Hilton Jackson, James T. Sherier
and Robert H. Turner. sets up that the
rates to the commuters We're substan-
TALLY increased by the Old Dominion
In its tariff filed August 9, 1916, which
with other things. discontinued the
transfer arrangement Heretofore ex-
listing between. the Old Dominion and
the CAPITAL Traction Company. where
by purchasers of tickets were entitled
TO a free transfer to any point in the
District of Columbia on the lines of the
capital Traction Company.
The commission. after hearing, Janu-
airy q, 1917. denied jurisdiction over
the Capital Traction Company. on the
ground that it was engaged in the
transportation Of passengers only as a
street railway. the contention of the
petitioners being that the Capital Trac-
ton Company. having voluntarily en-
tered into interstate traffic by the
transfer arrangement referred to. made
itself amenable to the Jurisdiction of
the commission.
1t is understood that the commission
has postponed a final hearing on the
validity of the increased rates until
such time as the courts have passed
upon the question of its Jurisdiction
over the Capital Traction Company
such Jurisdiction being conceded. SO
far as the Old Dominion railway Is
This effort to have the
court take Jurisdiction over the Capt.
tai Traction Company is a part of the
efforts of the patrons of the Old Do
minion to prevent any increase in the
fares without having the propriety of
the increase passed upon by the COM
mission.

relief work. representing 5000 branches
of seventy-hve national organizations,
is the aggregate of relief work, as

by these organizations have beer

ILLINOIS PASSENGER RATES GO
UP.

The following official statement re.
garding the proposed increase in pas.
senger fares was issued by Illinois
railroads:
Duly constituted authorities having
determined that certain passenger
fares in Illinois are discriminatory,
the same will be advanced to the
interstate basis, which has been found
reasonable, commencing May 81, 1917.
The necessary tariffs are on file at
all passenger stations, giving details
of these advances"
II is expected that the increase In
passenger rates from cents mile
TO "a cents a mile will be contested
by Attorney General Brundage of iii
nols, in which case the suit will be
carried to the United States Supreme
Court for final decision.
II such action Is taken II will be the
first case involving conflict of thu
interstate commerce commission rul
ing and a state commission as to pas
senger fares. All previous rate case'
have involved freight tariffs. What
ever decision is reached will establish
a precedent for Missouri, Minnesota

: FINANCIAL GOSSIP

John J. Mitchell, president Of the
Illinois Trust, returned from New
York. He said
New York banking interests are
looking for a long drawn out war.
do not agree with that view, but New
York people have that notion. The
bankers are very much interested in
Red Cross work and devoting a great
deal of time to 1t.
1T is the general impression that
money will be rather easy. The fed
eral reserve board, the Bank of Eng.
land, and New York bankers are work
ing together to create stability in
the money market in order that
money sentiment and business activ-
ity may be kept in good tone. II is
recognized that successful financing
of the war will depend on these two
conditions.
ut is expected that the senate will
revamp the income tax measures
passed by the house and that the
retroactive feature will be eliminated.
This materially helps the situation.
