Caboose Law Upheld by Supreme Court in Indiana Case
The Indiana Supreme Court sustains the 1911 caboose law, affirming $100 fines against the Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, Chicago & St Louis Railway for caboose violations. The ruling recognizes police power to enforce safety standards on cabooses built after 1904 and issues of railroad expense are dismissed. The law, backed by railroad brotherhoods, aims to protect workers.
