CONVENTION OF LOST BAGGAGE AGENTS.
The agents employed ON several of the princi-
pal railroads for the recovery of lost baggage,
have been in the habit Of holding semi annual
conventions, Of which the New York Tribune
gives the following account, in reporting the
proceedings Of the one which has just adjourn
ed in that city:
"The principal object Of these conventions
Is to compare memoranda, each agent bring.
ing list of all unclaimed baggage aud freight
in the hands Of his employers, and also a list of
claims and applications for lost baggage, to-
gether with descriptions of the property. These
conventions have been found Of great value,
seldom failing to result in finding forty or fif-
ty pieces OF valuable property. Packages
claimed to have been lost on the Central Rail
road, for instance, are found lying in Detio oft,
and goods charged to the negligence Of the
Erie Railroad, turn up in Chicago.
These conventions are productive Of another
good result; each agent relates his experience
of the liabilities to loss, and the benefits Of
certain systems Of checking the various at.
tempts at fraud, and the manner in which
they we're frustrated. BY this means each
agent Is Put In possession Of an amount Of
experience highly useful to himself and val.
liable to his employers. tit
The three days session resulted in finding
~ pieces Of valuable freight and baggage. We
learn that the members of tho Convention moi
only compare notes every six months, but
that during every week q stream Of letter,
flows between them with the most satisfactor,
results 10 their employers and the public

hardships endured by our tradespeople about town
in consequence of the languid and careless man

it is frequently the that they have to borrow
