Court Denies 3-Cent
Rate TO n. Y. Central
Appellate Division Decides to
Uphold Judge Woodward in
Tariff Decision
Special Dispatch 10 The Tribune

ALBANY. Nov. 10.-The New York
Central Railroad to-day suffered re-
yersal in its fight for the establishment,
Of three-cent-a-m mile rate in this state.
The Supreme Court Appellate Division
Sd Department, handed down decision
that the rond must return to the old rate
Of fare and granted the request of the
Public Service Commission, I'd District.
that the railroad be directed to ffle a
two-cent-a-mile tariff. The case vii.
now go to the Court of Appeals. The
decision Of the Appellate Division re-
verses q ruling made by the Supreme
Court in the case.
The Appellate Division concurred in
an opinion written by Judge Woodward
wno he'd that the question for the court
70 decide was if the provisions Of tn
Federal transportation act of 1920 had
operated TO fix three-cent-a-mIle ru,v
until the Legislature should readopt the
ole two-cont rate or take other action.
Judge Woodward's Interpretation is
that it was not the intent to continue
the rate liked by the Director Genera
during the period of government control
past September /, 1920 and for this rea-
son the old rate should be restored. He
goes on TO point out that the provision
ealing for q rate OF two cents a mile is
MOI rate-fNng provision, but one con-
tained IN the charter issued by the state
to the road upon it's organization in
