first-aid treatment, and removed to
the Massie Memorial Hospital. Mr..
Grinnell claimed that he did not see
Shields trying to cross the street,

machine as soon as possible and is
sisted in removing the injured man

FRANKFORT WINS SUIT TO PRE-
VENT TELEPHONE RATE
INCREASE.

Circuit Judge R. L. Stout at Frank
fort Saturday, granted the injunction
prayed for by the city of Frankfort
against the Cumberland Telephone
and Telegraph Company, the Home
Telephone Company and Postmaster
General Burleson restraining them
from increaing telephone rate in that
city.
On arriving at this decision Judge
Stout says that he is of the opinion
that it was not the intention OF Con-
gress to give the Postmaster General
authority to set aside contracts en-
tered into by cities and the telephone
companies to increase rates. He is
also of the opinion that such an act
would be unconstitutional even if it
were the intention of Congress to
have passed such an act.
