Test Case to Be Made to Determine Constitutionality ot Rales Or dered by Hoard. Ol.TMriA, "Wash.. April 22. (Special.) Suit was pommencwl in th Superior t ourt of Thurston County today by the gtato against the Northern Paclnc Rail road to compel the road to adopt and follow out the rules and regulations laid down by the State Railroad Cognmission. which went into effect February 1. grov erninfr the selling of tickets and handling of passenger traffic on all lines in the state. The case Is a test suit and will be bitterly fought by the railroads, who hold that the rules in question. Nos. 1 and 3, are unconstitutional and the Com mission has no right to enforce them. The complaint charge the Northern Pacific wttb violating rule 1 on all Its roads and branches in the state, by charging and collecting from passengers who pay their transportation on board train, sum in excess of -tba- maximum rate provided by law, amounting to 10 cents on all fares up to J2, and issuing a rebate slip for this excess. This is prohibited by rule 1 of the railroad regu lations as promulgated by the Commis sion. Rule 2 makes the posting of copies of the rules necessary and the state alleges that the railroad failed to do this. Rule S prohibits the railroads from detaching a greater amount of mileage than that calculated at the rate of 3 cents a mile. The state asks for an Injunction pro hibiting the violation of rule 2 and a mandatory injunction and sufficient de cree to compel the observance of all rules and regulations.
