the same period.
He introduced series of prepared
schedules showing the actual amount
of passenger travel from the points
mentioned over a long. period, ex-
planned that the fare between South
Gardiner and Gardiner is 16c for the
one-way trip, and stated that with
the decrease in travel the railroad
is compelled to serve these sections
from which paying business is OBJ
tanned.
Mr.. Harris further said that at
present an early morning train Is
being operated between South Gar
diner and Augusta as an accommo-
dation to mill and factory workers.
and that this train has been oper-
ated right along at loss.
In his rebuttal. Attorney Good
speed asked Mr.. Harris if he did not
believe that the shrinkage in the
number of passengers during the
past nine years was partly due to
the cutting out of small stations
such as the one under consideration.
At the close of the hearing, the
matter was taken under considera-
ton by the members of the Public
Utilities Commission.

Next Meeting Of Governor Wednesday, 49, 10 A.

Gardiner and houses something like
700 people, is cut off from Gardi-

there is neither trolley nor boat
service available during the summer
months. Attorney Goodspeed fur
Their stated that the retail merchants
of Gardiner are much interested in
the matter, as they are losing
considerable volume of business.
Mr.. Goodspeed suggested that a
small iitney line might be estab-
lished between South Gardiner and
Gardiner, provided the Maine Cen
trail Railroad raised no objections, to
take care of the problem of trans
portation which now exists.
General Passenger Agent NJ. l..
Harris appeared for the Maine Cen
trail, and introduced figures to show
that Train IL does not pay, stating
that during one test period of 80
days this train showed total receipts
amounting to $2.66 daily for the pas
sengers getting on at South Gardiner
and detraining at Gardiner, Halo
we'll and Augusta.
Mr.. Harris further stated that
since 1917 the falling off in passenger
travel has been much greater than
the decrease in service rendered by
the Maine Central, and that the fall
ing off in travel was approximately
81 per cent, while the service had
