10-CENT FARE
PLAN OPPOSED
Witnesses at Interurban Hear
ing Charge Discrimination.

That granting Of a 10-cent city fare for
interurban companies operating in In
dianapolis would be n discrimination
against citizens who have no service from
.tsS-4 Indianapolis Street Railway Company,
YSas the statement of Everett H. SchofeId
and Frank C. Ayres OF Norwood, before
members of the Public Service Commits
sion at the completion Of the hearing on
petitions of traction companies for in
creased rates
Two interurban companies, the Indian
apolis & Cincinnati and the Terre Haute.
indianapolis & Eastern Traction Com
pany, have petitioned the commission for
increased. rates, and the commission now
mas the requests under consideration and
also the petition of the local street car
company for 2-cent transfer. a gen
erai read1ustment Of interurban rates
and regulations within cities between
Istrictly local and outside passengers by
the commission has been forecast as a
result OF the fare problems.
Samuel Ashby, city corporation coun-
sci, declared it would be unlawful for
the commission to raise the fare of intra-
lefty passengers using interurban service
to higher level than fares charged by
the city company. It was shown that
.eitizens of Norwood are forced TO either
use the intsrurbsn lines or walk a long
distance to reach the nearest city car
'line.
49, Ashby contended that interurban
fares should not be increased at least
until the city service has been extended
to reach the people Of Norwood.

Walter Jefferson, a, negro, is held IN
the Marion County Jail while Capt
Thomas E. Halls, chief of the United
State secret service IN Indiana, tries to
find out whether he attempted to pass
one dollar bill. crudely altered to rep
resent a ten-dollar note, on Mrs. Mary
Faber at her grocery at 1441 North Sen
ate avenue.
Jefferson before United States Com
missioner Charles w. MooreS contended
that Mrs. Faber gave him the altered
bill in change for twenty-dollar bill
he had offered in payment for a small
purchase Mrs Faber told the commits
sioner that she gave Jefferson good
ten dollar bill and that he attempted to
get another by substituting the counter
felt for the one she had given him and
then claiming he had been cheated.
AS proof of his innocence, Jefferson
offered the statement that he called the
police himself and stayed at the grocery
until the emergency squad arrived. The
police then arrested him on Mrs. Fabers
story.
Commissioner Moores fixed the negros
bond at $1,000, which he was unable to
provide, and continued the hearing until
2 o'clock tomorrow afternoon.
