Georgia railroads are preparing to make an appeal to the United States Supreme Court, to obtain a reversal of the derision of the State Supreme Court, which required the railroads to pull mileage on the trains. The State Supreme Court's decision was made inoperative for thirty days, to permit the railroads to issue mil eage good only on their particular lines. The decision, if it remains in effect after the appeal to the United States Court, will result in the aboli tion of the interchangeable mileage which has been in use up to this time. At the end of the thirty days the decision will be submitted to Judge W. D. Bills, who ordered an injunc tion restraining the State Railroad Commission from putting the mil eage-pulling order into effect, and he- will dissolve the injunction.
