THE UPPER BERTH
The announcement that the Pullman Company has decided to abide by the order of the Interstate Commerce Commission and charge a smaller price for upper than for lower berths will generally be hailed with satisfaction.  Should the company in its generosity go so far as to fix the charge for the upper berth at three-fourths that of the lower, there would be still further reason for gratification.  To charge the same for the second-story shelf, with which those who came late were obliged to content themselves as for a first floor reservation, has always been unreasonable.--New York Tribune
