Portsmouth antl Virginia and about forty other railroads. Including the Southern, Atlantic Gout Line and Seaboard Air Line, with their con nections to Chicago, SL ' Louis and other western points, the object of the bill in equity by the Commerce Com mission being to enforce its order against the railroads in the suit bronght about four years ago by the Wilming ton Tariff. Association, which sought to correct an unjust discrimination in freight rates from the West to Wil mington In favor of Norfolk and other Virginia points which are competitors with Wilmington for the wholesale trade In the CaroUnas. In the suit of the Tariff Association the Commerce Commission had a sit ting in Wilmington April 20th and 31st, 1899, and In Washington May 22 85. A decision was rendered in favor of Wilmington on Dee 17th, 1902. It is stated la the present bill in equity that May 7ih, 1902, the Commission formu lated an order in conformity to Its con - elusions in the case and ; served the same upon the railroads; that . the railroads have wholly . disregarded and set at naught ' the order and hare wilfully and knowingly, violat ed and disobeyed the same, and still do neglect - and refuse to comply with the order or any part thereof, wherefore the complainant prays that upon final hearing a decree may be entered granting to complainant a writ of Injunction or other proper process, mandatory or otherwise, to restrain the defendants from further continuing in their disregard of . the order of the Commission; that a decree may be en tered requiring the defendants to pay such sum of money not exceeding $500 for every day after a day to be named in such decree that they shall fail to obey said process; that the defendants be required to pay cost and reasonable counsel fees in the litigation and for such other relief as the court may deem meet and proper.' - - The suit promises to be an interest ing one as prescribing the exact powers of the Commission and will likely be taken to the highest tribunal in the land before its final termination. Emi nent counsel appear on both sides and it is virtually a battle royal between the Interstate Commerce Commission of the United States and the leading railway systems of the South and West. District Attorney Harry Skin ner arrived last night to appear in the case la behalf of the complainant and the Commission will also be repre-' sented by its special solicitor, Hon. L. A.

This morning shortly before 1 o'clock as Suburban Car No. 35, the last from the beach, was rounding the reversible curve between Wilmington and Del gado, at a speed of about 20 miles an! hour, a middle-aged white man, who reluctantly gave his name as John MacGae, fell from the rear platform and received an ugly gash in the back of the head which rendered him un conscious until he reached the city and was attended by Dr. Frank EL Busaell at his office, No. 417 Princess street. Later he was sent to the Bonitz House but would give : no particulars as to where he lived or was employed. The car was in charge of Motorman M. P. Newton, and Conductor Walter V. Hutson. McGee boarded the car at the beach and remained In his seat until just after Delgado was passed, when he arose and went to the rear platform. He had - hardly . reached there when the action of the car in rounding the curve threw him from his feet.-: His head apparently struck a cross-tie, laying his scalp open for about three . inches and necessi tating the taking of several stitches in the wound. The car was carried back to the point where the man fell and he was brought Immediately to Dr. Russell's office and later sent to the hotel in a carriage.
