advantages of so many mIngling har-

the case in a city like this where there

CHEAP PASSENGER RArEs.-In regard

CHEAP PASSENGER RATEs-In regard
to the cut rates for passenger travel, as
published in the Kansas City papers,
we would state for the information of
our travelling public, who expect to visit
Chicago and the east, that tickets are
not sold at the union depot office at Kan
sas City, and as passengers have to hunt
up the outside or city ticket office TO
find these cheap tickets, it puts them to
the extra expense of laying over until
the next train, that is, passengers arriv-
ing IN Kansas City in the morning have
to stop over and take the evening trains.
Arriving there in the evening have to
stop over all night and take the next
morning trains. Then when passengers
arrive at Kansas City they are disap-
pointed, especially tbs poor, when they
learn they have to pay full rates, and
take an order or rebate draft on agent at
destination.
The following from the Kansas City
Mail will explain how il is done:
FOR example, the tickets sold at Kan
saS City for Chicago are at full price,
| $1420, but when the purchaser arrives
in Chicago he presents his purchased
ticket and receives a rebate draft for diff
ference between cheap rate and full rate.
Many poor people could for this reason
take no advantage OF the reduction and
were obliged to stay at homen
OF course, this is business, as il pre.
vents passengers from using their cut
rates TO local stations, and, while other
roads may be forced to do this, YET we
understand the NJ, & & T. railway from
Fort Scott and other principal stations
in Kansas, are selling through tickets Ia
many points east at very low rates with.
out using the rebate d aft. Passengers
do not have to put up full rates All
/ they have to do is to state where they are

particular cause Of the present outbreak
