Two Stato Conmliilantri.
Th btll passed bjr the New York legisla
ture, commonly ' known as "Governor
Hushes' public utilities bill," Is the last
word of a law-making- body on the regu
lation and supervision or railroads, street
railways, gas and electric light companies
and oil pipe lines. It was drafted and In
troduced at the Instance of Governor
Hughes and Is regarded as the moat com
plete enactment for the control of publlo
service corporations ever proposed In an
American state. The complete bill covered
seventy-four closely printed pagea, juid was
passed substantially as Introduced. The
following aummary of the measure Is
taken from Van Norden's magaslne:
The present State Board of Railway Com
mlaslonera, which has had control of steam
and electrified railways and local traction
concerns, la legislate out of existence,
along with the Rapid Transit commission
of New Tork City, which has supervised
the building of subways, the State Com
mission of Oaa and Electricity, the
various local Inspectors of gas meters and
their deputies. The different powers and
duties of these, commissions and officers
are devolved upon two state commissions
to be called Publlo Service commissions,
one to have Jurisdiction In the First pub
llo service district, a territory whose
boundaries very nearly coincide with those
of Greater New Tork City; the other In
the Second publlo service district, which
Includes the rest of the state.

These commissions are given Jurisdic
tion over the service by common carriers,
including all manner of railway and trac

freight, their tunnels, bridges, ferries and
appurtenances, pipe lines for oil and gas
(but not water), and over gas and electric
plants, the authority extending to the cor
porations, companies, partnerships, indi
viduals, even trustees and receivers con
ducting the business. Generally, either
- commission has authority over publlo ser
vice corporations and utilities wholly
within their districts, but the powers and
duties of the Rapid Transit commission
of Nsw Tork City devolve specifically upon
the commission of the First district, and
In addition this commission takes juris

Adeqaate Service.
Railroads, traction lines and common car
ders must furntsh adequate service and

sengers and property, and all charges made
and demanded must , be "just and reason
able and not more than allowed by law or
by order of the commission having juris

is prohibited."
"A railroad corporation, (upon ths appli

ing, operating or controlling any lateral
line of railroad, shsll construct, maintain
and operate upon reasonable terms a switch

ths application of any shipper shall pro

specifying a reasonable compensation there
for. Common carriers must file with the com

are not forbidden, but schedules of these
must be filed and published.
Free transportation for passengers or
freight by means of false billing or the
like la expressly forbidden, and corpora
tions or persons are forbidden to seek to
obtain such transportation.
Discrimination upon the part of one rail
way between connecting lines of other com
panies Is declared Illegal. All common car
riers are required to afford all reasonable,
proper and equal facilities tor the Inter
change of passengers and freight between
their lines and others, and there shall be
no discrimination either In fares or service
between the connecting lines. While the
section Is not to be construed as compelling
a common carrier to permit another to use
Its tracks or terminal facilities except on
order from the commission, every common
carrier Is required to receive from every
other common carrier, at a connecting point
loaded freight cars and haul the ssme
through to destination or to the connecting
point of another common carrier, as the car
la billed, long and short haul discrimina
tion' Is made illegal.
First Come. First Served.
Railways are required, on reasonable
notice, to furnish cars and to have on hand
sufficient cars and engines to meet all re
quirements that may reasonably be antici
pated. In case of car shortage the cars
must be furnished "first come, first
served," excepting that preference may be
given for live stock snd for perishable
freight. , The commissions are given power
to order cars and to make regulation for
the distribution of cars, as well as to fix
demurrage charges.
Common carriers must give receipt or
way bills to all shippers. No contract,
stipulation or clause on' any way bill shall
exempt any railway- from liability for loss
to shippers occasioned by delays or for
negligence while In transit, and the new
law puts upon the railroads In suits over
such cases ths burden of proof that delays
are not due to negligence.
Carriers are liable for loss of baggage,
but may make a reasonable charge for
liability In excess of 1160 and for ths csr
rtage of more than 150 pounds of baggage
on a aingle ticket. Remeillessnd rights of
action under existing laws are, conserved.
Railways are forbidden to enter Into
