Rates To Idlewild To Be The Same As Last Year
Excursion rates over the Pennsylvania lines and the L.V.R.R. to Idlewild, will be the same during the next picnic season, as they were last year, it is declared.
There had been some speculation as to whether the new Public Utilities Act would necessitate any change or not. It is said, however, that there is no likelihood of any revision of rates being occasioned on this account.
Walter Williams, of the T. N. Harton Company, of Pittsburgh, is now acting as a booking agent for the L.V.R.R. Company, in place of the late Oliver C. McKalip, who met his death in an automobile accident while on his way to Ligonier last fall. The Harton Company is in the amusement enterprise business.
