Book Description

Excerpt from Twenty-Seventh Annual Report of the Railroad Commission of Kentucky: For the Year 1906 Appendix B contains: A synopsis Of complaints and the Opinions and orders of the Com mission therein. Appendix C contains The bill Oi complaint Of the Louisville Nashville Railroad Company and the Commission's answer thereto. The bills of complaint of the other railroad companies seeking to enjoin the Commission from enforcing its order adopting a Maximum Mileage Scale of Rates, and the Commission's answers thereto, are substantially the same as that in the case of the Louisville Nashville Railroad Company and are, therefore; not reproduced. Appendix D contains The laws defining the powers and duties of the Commission. We have prepared and append to this report a table containing the names of each railroad Operating in the State, the mileage of each, also, the capitalization, bonded indebtedness, gross and net receipts, val nation of mileage, and other property, separately, and the total Of both. The number Of accidents to passengers and employes during the year, showing the number Of each killed or injured, which we are glad to report shows a very considerable decrease over that of 1905, being a reduction of 16 employes killed, an increase of 65 employes injured, a decrease of 60 passengers killed and a decrease of 150 passengers injured.
