Court rules city franchise a scrap of paper
The state public service commission's authority to cancel Seattle traction company’s franchise is upheld by Superior Judge John F. R. Mitchell. The case involved the obligation to sell 25 car tickets for $1, with Corporation Counsel Hugh Caldwell planning an immediate appeal to the state supreme court. The city argued the commission lacked power to void contract duties between Seattle and the company and that its action on the 4 cent ticket case was unwarranted.
