TAXI OWNER SUES
TERMINAL COMPANY
Charges Discrimination and Asks
Injunction Against
Interference.

Charging that the Washington Ter
minal Company Is discriminating
against large portion of the public
which does not patronize a certain
taxicab company, and is exposing
them to risk of life and limb, while
provision is made for the accommo-
dation of the patrons of a particular
company w. E. Bowie, owner of tax
icabs on the public stand at Union
station, today filed suit for an injunc-
ton against the terminal company.
He says he is acting in his own
behalf and for other occupants Of
the public hack stand.
The court is asked to enjoin the
continuance of iron posts and chains
between the hackstand and the sta
ton and to require the company to
desist from annoying and prosecuting
the hackers.
Through Attorneys Hardison and
Howard the court is advised that the
Terminal Company favors par
ticular taxicab concern and provides
special loading platforms for the
patrons of that concern and requires
those using Bowie's cabs and others
riding to the station to climb over
the platform and to cross in front
of moving vehicles to their great
hazard and danger.

to whether a man has been in service

The Commissioners regard the ne
cessity of obtaining legislation on po-
