Court Upholds Traction Contract Over Pittsburg Street
The U S Supreme Court at Philadelphia reversed a lower court ruling and dismissed a bid by Rafferty and others to block the Central Traction Company from using High Street. The decision confirms the 1888 contract with Central Passenger Railway and validates the traction company’s right to enter streets where tracks are or may be laid, with rent to be paid and costs against the plaintiffs.
