RIBLE RIOT AND A WOMAN

A telegram from Chicago says that
the Pan Handle route yesterday began
selling tickets from Chicago to Louis
vile at six dollars, being three dollars
less than the regular rate. The Pan
Handle people have been for some time
trying to get their competitors to join
them in some agreement that would
hold rates to the South firm, but their
efforts they say were fruitless, as tickets
were being sold over other lines, through
scalpers, at less than the regular rates.
The managers of the road say if the
roads have reductions to make it should
be to passengers, and not to scalpers.
