CHEAP CABS ARE ASSURED. Public Jehus Will Force Lower Rates in Order to Fight Trust That Reserves Best Paying Stands. Will Appeal to Municipal and State Legislature for a New Legal Tariff of Reduced Charges, The problem of cheaper cab service may be solved in this city very soon, and by no others than the cabmen them- belver It 1s @ heroic measure, they admit, but ft will be necessary in order to knock out the tendency to create cab trusts at every profitable point in the city. Cab rates reduced one-half may be the outcome, In any event, both the Munteipal and tate Legislatures will be asked to ame- Horate the condition of the individual “kebtle" thia year. Something mum be done or they will find themmelves froren out entirely. Metel Cabs in a Trust. ‘The cad privilege of every prominent hotel and club in this city is owned by certain large livery-statle proprietors. “EB. ‘They alone have the right to keep their) __ arre’ Vehicles tm front of those places and sangea cals thus receive all the trade, an bes the rleht to slop his cab at ans ™ return for this they pay @ apecial| of those points an: EI Ieense of 8% to the city, and in addition pay varying sume to the inetitutions fa- voring them. The cabmen at the Wai- dort-Astoria pays, it is sald, $14,000 o year to the proprietor; the man at the Holland House pays 16 per cent. of hiv Ret profits; Reector’e recetves $2,000, as does Shanley's. Delmonico's and Sher- y's recetve larger sume. In return for this no individual cabman may stop his horse and wait for a fare on either ele of the street within the bes | om which the hotel or club is lo- law ub. in can fix his own rate.
