RS VERY SPEEDY Hour’s Demonstration Shows Some Run Far Ahead of Others. The Aldermante Taxicab Investigating Committee held another public session to-day at which taxicab reforms as to regulation and operation were discussed, This hearing, like others to follow, was designed for the purpose of enabling the committee to deter- mii how to draw an ordinance calcu- lated in the end to do away with taxl- cab evils, Alderman Bryant Willard read a re- port on taxicab rates prevailing in fourteen American cities, which had been compiled fr the edification of the committee. This report showed an a’ erage rate of eeventy cents for t! first mile prevafled, Chairman Willard simply read the report without Imply- ing that such @ rate should apply in this clty. A feature of the hearing to-day was @ demonstration of the practical opera- tions of taxicab meters, These instru- ments, several of them “hooked up" to taxicab wheels, which, upon being re- volved, operated or actuated the meters, were brought Into the Aldermante cham- her where the hearing was being held and manipulated in the presence of the committee. Every form of taxim employed in the city on licensed taxt- cave was in the collection.

John W.

President Weib- ley added that there are no restrictions as to special hotel-stand privileges in Pitteburgh. Any cab can stop or stand in front of any hotel. No rental for that privilege is exacted by tie hotels. Mr. Welbley added that at present there are no city ordinances in vogue in Pittsburgh as affecting the operation of taxicabs or regulations of the rates to be charged the public. ‘The taxi meters were put in operation by Chief Inspector Drennon of the Bureau of Licenses. At the end of an hour the meters were found to have recorded differently. Two registered $1.60, the legal rate for waiting time.
