SCORES 6. T. P.

Tells Mr. D'Arcy’ T: Tate That His
Company ts Always ‘Trying to

Express Man.

(Canadian Press Despatch.)

Ottawa, Dec. 28.—Judge Mabee
took the side of a cabman against
the G. T. P. in a ease that came
up for hearing before the Railway
Commission. The cabman, E, A.
Purcell, had been refused ad-
mission to the G. T. P. station
at Saskatoon to look for fares,
the G, T. P. having given the ex-
“lusive right to a bus company.

Although the question was in

tself a small one, it involved the
large matter of the right of rail-
way companies to make ex¢lusive
agreements of the kind.‘ "An ad-
decision to the company
was given”some time a o and
Mr. Tate was de sirous ofSeain-
ing a rehearing.

“You piled trucks and baggage
up so that Tadies tonid net get
from the trains to Mr, Pukeell’s
cab,” said Judge Mabee. ~*Why,
your agreement means that my
coachman could not meetme at_
the station to take, me ‘home.”

“We could modify the &gree-
ment,’ suggested Mr. Tate;

the Chairman. “Nobody but your?
company tries to do iNegal.things*
all the time, This many was
kicked around by your station-
master; you had-him in the Po-
liee Court and an appeal was re-
fused.”

Judge Mabee finally refused the
motion for a rehearing.
