Twenty-third ave. cars VIII not
have to run down Madison ST. to
carry passengers during the rush
hours. Tho state supreme court
held Monday that such an order on
the Puget Sound Traction. Light &
Power Co. would be unreasonable.
A petition was filed by patrons OF
the 23rd ave. line about two years
ago requesting that the public serv'
ice commission make the company
route the cars thru to the business
district. The commission entered the
order. and II was upheld by the
superior court.
The supreme court held Monday
that persons In outlying districts
should expect Inconvenience. and
that tho loss to the company would
be too great to warrant the order
being enforced.
