ing the right to refuse later on. II It
desires.
It Is not likely that the company
will decline 20 obey the orders Of the
commission inside the District If &
should do so II quickly would run ingo
trouble. Although an interstate
company, IL has its terminals e
Twelfth street and does considerable
District business. IL would be %

Protest walk and wait.
AS to Virginia residents the COM
pany claims that its rules call for the
presentation OF a communication ticket
and cash fare on boarding the. cars
coming to this city, and that such
passengers are not entitled to trana-
fers.
Some Of the passengers claim that
the former custom OF the company
was to collect tickets, or money. up
to the District Line and then collect
fare again, as the trains entered the
District. The plan now. Il is de-
oiared. is to bring passengers to the
Arlington, Va, station, a block and q
half south OF the Potomac river
bridge. and there collect another cash
fare. II a passenger pays fare to the
Arlington station and wants to obtain
a city transfer he must get OF his
car and walk to the bridge, inside the
District, to get the benefit OF the
transfer. In this way he has - wait
a long time for another car.
The commuters claim that the
whole thing is a subterfuge to deny
them transfers. the company falling
back on interstate commerce. laws.
Reprisals are threatened.
Some CORfusian Expected.
The Washington street railway
companies today expected that some
confusion as to transfers win exist
for three or four days until the train
men and public become educated to
the new system. Both railways have
posted in their cars notices as 10
transfer points and what conductors
are called upon to give and receive IN
the way OF transfers. The Capital
Traction has sent pamphlets to citi-
zenS' associations and other bodies
giving information. These contain
instructions to conductors. The pub
lie Is urged to familiarizs itself with
transfer facilities.
One thing to be borne IN mind BY
the PUBIC lS LnaL AuLerCOl4pAHN
transfers are given only upon cash
fares and not upon transfers There
Is no change in the long existing
system Of each company giving
transfers to its own lines. This win
continue, but free transfers win not
be issued to a competing line from
these transfers.
The Utilities Commission VIII watch
the results Of the new system and
in another month obtain data from
the companies as TO the number OF
transfers used and the affect upon
revenues. Experts connected with the
commission today thought that con-
siderable time will be saved the car
riding public in going from and 70
their homes through ability to cut
down the distances heretofore travel
ed through use OF more direct routes
