W. U. Appeal Is Denied
Court Charges Carelessness in
Case Tried l6 Years Ago

Jutice Benedict, of the Brooklyn su-
preme Court, denied new trial to the
Western Union Telegraph Company
yesterday ma s695 damage case, which
he said revealed remarkable careless
ness in court and out.
Sixteen years ago a telegram was
filed with the Western Union, in which
Samuel Koffler was offered a lob at
$40 week. The message was never
delivered, Koffer missed the job and
sued for 81 900 damages. He obtained
verdict of $694 in 1904, but the judg-
ment was not filed until 1912. Recently
the company petitioned for an order
setting aside the verdict, claiming that
it had not been notified of the filing
of the Judgment. 1t transpired that
the stenographer who reported the
proceedings had died without tran
scribing his notes. 1t was impossible
to find any of the witnesses. The court
held that the telegraph company could
not now claim relief.

told the special Presidential commits
sion investigating the street railway
problem here to- day.
In discussing the surface traffic in
New York City Mr.. Tripp said he did
not believe the one man car could he
successfully operated there, because Of
traffic conditions and the unusual
crowding in the rush hours. He said
that cars are now operated on New
York streets as closely as is possible.
II would like to ask your solution of
the New York problem" said Commits
sioner Meeker.
That" said Mr.. Trip, would re-
qulre an analysis of the deficit that
exists: 1t is hard to state, but a IN
cent fare might do it,"
Il meant so far as physical improve
ment is concerned" MIR. Meeker said.
responded
When asked why the street RAILWAYS
had not attempted to meet the situation
by increasing fares Mr.. Tripp said:
Because these fares are fixed by
franchise or municipal regulations and
because of the public idea that the s.
cent tare is fixture. In no other in
dustry do you find q situation where it
is impossible to increase your earnings
to meet radically increased costs of
labor, materials and operation. Some
of the larger companies are not only
on the verge of bankruptcy but they
are in bankruptcy. l do not feel at
liberty to discuss most of these COM
panles, but | may cite the New York
Railways Company. helped organize
that company as the successor of the
Metropolitan company, and when we
issued its securities in 1911 they were
regarded as safe from everything ex-
ccpt an earthquake. To-day they can
not pay the interest.
eve have all been living in a fools
paradise in the street railway business
We suddenly walked up when the war
awoke us only to find that no business
which is prevented from increasing it's
revenue can live. Street railway credit
can never be restored under the pres
ent system governing municipalities
and the companies"

A New $4,000 Motor Truck
For $4,000 And SIS A
Day For Your Services

Sounds unreasonable doesn't it?
But it is not as impossible as it
sounds. For example. Suppose you
are man Of moderate means de-
pending upon your personal efforts
for a livelihood and to gain the
coveted competency that is every
man S privilege and duty. You are
probably realizing about IS a day for
your services. You can put some
thing by at that if you are thrifty,
but not very much. Now suppose
you are qualified to become a motor
truck operator and should conclude
to own and operate a motor truck
on contract work, one OF our " ton
Model *" trucks with a 31h yard
steel body with hydraulic hoist and
dump equipment, such as We are
furnishing for the state, county and
federal highway road work will cost
you approximately $4,000, payable
$1,000 cash, ind the balance on pay
ments.
Now one of these trucks on an
ordinary contract will earn an aver
age Of $25 day of eight hours.
Allow $5 for your wages and IS a
day for the operation Of the truck
and you will have q balance of SIS
per day remaining. This would
average at least $oVo per month
which in ten months would fully pay
f5r the balance on the truck, which
in reality means that the $4,000 truck
has cost you only the $4,000 initial
payment, and the truck itself has
earned and paid the balance. A few
months more will earn your $4,000
back and you will then have a truck
fully paid for and nothing invested
but with the means of earning $25
or more per day for sveral years to
come.
There is approximately $30,000,-
600 in sight for public road building
in Oregon at this time, which will
demand the services of hundreds of
motor trucks. A good man with a
good truck can make a nice little
fortune for himself by getting in on
this work, great deal of which will
be contract hauling.
Write us for further information
if interested and for prices, terms
and specifications if considering the
purchase of truck for any purpose
whatever. Read our display ad in
