ORDINARY CALLS REMAIN SAME Rate From Thirteenth Street Crossing of the Northwestern Railroad Into Town Will be 50 Cents $1 an Hour . For Waiting In Night. Hack rates In Norfolk will undergo n change day after tomorrow. It will not bo n universal change , and will not agoct the ordlnar ) cab calls , but will apply particularly to but two classes of calls. The rates from the Thirteenth street crossing of the Chicago cage fc Northwestern railroad , into the city , will bo Increased from twen ty-five to lift ) cents and a now regu lation will go into effect by virtue of sshich the cabs will charge $1 an hour U for waiting upon persons between the hours of 2 a. m and 7 n m All other rates remain unchanged. Meaning of Change. The drive to the Thirteenth street crossing of the Northwestern railroad makes n Journey of more than four miles for the cab , and for that trip n rate of but twenty-five cents has boon charged hitherto. This trip has become n common one for Norfolk , as many Northwestern freight trains which run In from the west carry passengers only to this crossing. The result is that Norfolk people on those trains telephone from the depot nt Battle Creek to the cab men here , ordering a hack to bo at tlio crossing to meet the train. The cab men have boon making the long trip for a quarter and find that It Is Im possible to do the work for that amount , thcrefoio , after March 1. the rates will advance. The new chnigo of $1 an hour for svaiting between the hours of 2 and 7 In the momlng is made to protect the cabbies against the long cold waits of the earl ) morning , when they suf fer from the chill , as do also their horfeos. It is said that in many cases they are kept waiting for soveial \ hours at a time , and they want pay Other rates in Norfolk , for drives nil over the city , remain at twenty- live cents , which has long boon recog nized as an extremely reasonable rate. Could Improve Service. The cabmen complain that people who order cabs are not definite enough in giving their instructions , and that as a result theie is a vast amount of misunderstanding and wrong calls Some people merely give sticet num bers without the names , and others meiely give names without street nunibcis. The cabmen nay that Nor folk is now laige enough that mini- hois and names both aie lequlred If the service is to ho piopoilv main- * tainod. and the public will confer a < . favor upon itself by beating this fact /V in mind. Quit "caitying people along" find uselul people for emploes. Resolutions of Respect.
