District of Columbia Court of Appeals October 15, 1902, No. 1147 (Metropolitan Railroad v. MacFarland)

Mr. Chief Justice An vet

delivered the opinion of the Oourt:

1. The first and principal question raised is that which denies the constitutionality of the act of June 6, 1900, in so far as it requires the appellant, the railroad company, to extend by double tracks the lines of its underground electric railroad from its present terminus along the Columbia road and Sixteenth street to Park street.
