A RATHER curious suit is in progress
in New York. 1t seems that under an
act Of Congress if steamers carry too
many passengers the informer can re-
cover from the steamboat company ten
dollars for each of the passengers in ex-
cess of the legal number, beside the
fare that these passengers in excess
paid. Norman Pollock, Of Brooklyn.
has been travelling to good account this
summer. He went up one day on the
Hudson steamer Mary Powell, which is
allowed to carry seven hundred passen-
gers, and found she was carrying nine
hundred and ninety-aix. Pollock, there

lar rate and the fare for the extra pas
sengers. If Norman has been keeping
watch of the Coney Island steamers
during the summer his fortune is made.

enable their possessors to-tO-tO drive
street cars, let us say. He was disap-
pointed at not receiving Il letter from
his native wilds, and he said to the Post
Office clerk: "Look here. mister, this
makes three times I've come here for
