Hinkle proprietor of the Roseburg-Peel auto j stage, charging a violation or the recently enacted ordinance re.iiir t ing operators of motor vehicles car rying passengers in the citv to post a bund and obtain a license, was served upon him today. This is the first case to be brought under the I n'w ordinance, and it is probable the measure may be tested by the alleged oi lender standing trial. , Mr. 1 1 ink U has retained Attornev Albert Abraham to defend him and, : it is thought a defense may be pre sented on tho grounds that the fare1 : charged for carrying the passengers' 'is based on the haul from the citv limits. The city has held that the' " use of the stre.-ts gives the right to - regulate. A fine for a violation as charged Is not to exceed $"", Mr. Hinkle is the regularly ap-! pointed mail carrier, but also main tains a stage by which he is engaged in a passenger business. He has neglectci to post a bond or pay the li'-ense fee. declaring his operations were not affecting any interests in the city. Mr. Hinkle was expected to make known his intentions late this afternoon. OFFICERS THINK MAN NOW IN TOILS GUILTY OF THE BOMB OUTRACC SAN FltANCISOO. July 28.
