SEEKING ISFORMATION.-A singular com
muncatiOn was printed in the Times Sun
day morning. the writer asking several soft
questions concerning the POntchartraln
railroad. He wishes to know why the rail-
road company does not erect free bath
house, and give through tickets. This ques-
on is easily answered. The company owns
all the bath houses along the wharf, and
obtains large income from the rent. The
pier belongs to the corporation, conse-
unently has perfect right to Q instruct
any kind of building it pleases, and charge
as high price as it can secure. 1t Is
not likely that the company will 40
ANYTHING to cut off it's resources. As to the
management of the road, perhaps the less
said about that the better. No one sup
poses there will be any improvement now
or hereafter, but daylight is in sight. Next
summer this old monopoly will find two
lively competitors for lake travel-horse
cars out Orleans street, and another line
along the new canal, at cheap fares and
speedy rates. Then people can visit the
lake, and remain there until mid night if
they choose. This will be glorious for such
as are employed all day; then laboring
man can 90 to the lake after business hours,
and regale himself with fresh air and a
bath, and not be !jostled to Jelly IN an old
rattletrap car atterward. There is pros
pect that next summer the stOlid old mon
opoly will die natural death. Let Us hope
for the best
