Georgia Road Hearing Sets Fare Increase Proposal
The Georgia Rail Road asked the railroad commission for permission to raise passenger fares from 2 to 2.2 cents per mile. General Manager T J Bcott and H Jackson presented figures showing losses under the current rule but more passengers carried in the last ten months. The commission took the matter under advisement, with a ruling expected soon. Officials argued increased earnings in the past year were not reflected in the petition. Governor Smith refused further interference in Neal Ryals's death sentence, keeping the execution date set. The governor also named three men to supervise Indian Spring improvements with a $2000 appropriation, and a Augusta damage report indicated flood losses of at least half a million, likely higher.
