AT most of the stations there has long been what
amounts to monopoly The various companies al
vertse yearly for contractors who VIII agree 70 sup
ply a certain number of cabs at each station. AS the
railways furnish an immense number OF passengers,
the privilege is valuable one and Is paid for at
high rate. Thus in order TO secure the contractor
his monopoly the companies compel all outside CABS
arriving with passen gers TO depart without waiting
for another fare. The men look upon this rule as a
grievance and demand its abolition. j suspect the

Mr. Roebuck, asking the first Lord Of the Treasury
whether in consideration Of the great public services OF
Lord Brougham 1t the intention Of the Government
