Have Passengers Any Rights which Should
~ bc Respected.
NEW YORK, Nov. 20, 1871.
TO Tue EDITOR OF THE HRRALDi-
May be permitted to make few remarks from
personal observation gathered from daily rides TOR
nearly year and half, or since the line opened,
ON the Fourth and Madison avenue cars? lam LED
to this by the seeming indifference or a gigantic
monopoly towards the travelling public. Passcn.
gers on the city line have as much to complain OF
as the residents the line from Forty strees
to FIFTY ninth street and between here and Yonkers.
In the first place, has Vanderbilt right 70 charge
twelve cents fare to EIghty-slxth street, The fare
TO Forty street Is six cents to Eighty
street Two cents additional. Yet II passenger by
accident gets OF the Forty. second street
he has to pay six more any point above, or
be compelled TO leave tho car and THIS after some
conductors say you can change at Forty second
street. At night IL Is almost impossible to tell the
difference between The Madison avenue cars and tn
depot cars; even some OF the depot cars have on o
red dashboard and Madison avenue. in large letters
yet. To take them you arc charged twelve cents.
Wny ao nave o an canr ogs % On me ave-
To be sure, one can change at Thirty SECOND street
by paying two cents additional; but when cars are
so near alike even an old resident Ia caught; what
must 1t be to q strangcr9 Why not give transfers.
as on Third avenue at junction Of Tnriy-iourth
street and Forty second streets The depot has
cars or Its own; yet many timcs. to my knowledge,
the Madison avenue walt at the depot for solno
as this morning. Sometimes we aro be.
hind long string OF depot cars, and
the train, Ill them up. 1t looks TO no like bad
management oil around or else o don't-care.ti tive
ness.r Passengers by the trains have cars desig-
mated for Them and why not arrange It SO they can
use tnem, not make us subscrvient to them
One block Is cnough-h e., at Centre street. An.
dnctors particularly above Forty second street,
when they have confab with The driver
or refractory passenger, TO 90 on the
platform and close the door; by so dong
many passengers would be thankful. On such long
lines q small side should be arranged to collect
fare as on the Eighth avenue whereby through
passengers would not be subjected TO a ifeezing
process. We pay fare enough to entiIle US TO some
comforts. | use the cars on said line daily, and
know OF what speak, and trust the public will not
let the matter rest until this monopoly dispense
with their seeming graspin9 disposition.
remain Respectfully, FAIR PLAY.
