Description
WHITFIELD, J. -- Under 6186, Acts of 1911, the Railroad Commissioners have authority and the duty to regulate the rates and charges and service within this State of all persons, firms or corporations engaged in or carrying on a telephone business. It appears that Arthur Chaires complained to the railroad Commissioners that the respondent had wrongfully discontinued his telephone service because of his refusal to pay a bill of three dollars for removal charges which Chaires deemed to be unjust and discriminatory. An order was made after a hearing, requiring the company to install a telephone in chaires' residence upon the same terms and conditions as are granted to other subscribers without reference to the disputed bill. The order was not complied with.
