rdUeS 10 passengers QOG 6QLlLl6u TO SUCH
rates, the ticket thus sold shall be treated
the same as provided for in the case of a
cut rate, except when evidence is produced
that theatrical manager abused his privi-
leges, then the penalty applies only SO far
as redemption of ticket at the rate for
which sold, and further privileges must be
denied said theatrical manager. No COM
mission shall be paid on tickets sold at
| theatrical rates.
10. No passes or free tickets shall be
given by us to secure passengers, and If
| the fact of pass or free ticket being
given to secure any passenger business is
established, the agent who gave the pass,
or free ticket, must redeem the same at
| twice the regular fare between the points
| for which issued.
20. No extra baggage shall be checked
| free to secure the sale of the ticket, and
| the fact of any line checking any extra
amount of baggage being established, the
ticket on which such extra baggage is
checked, shall be redeemed according to
the penalties already prescribed for cases
in which the rate is cut
| 81. No tickets reading from our east
ern, southern or western termini to any
points beyond, shall be sold under any
circumstances, except in connection with
proper transportation issued by ourselves
from our own Office in st. Paul and Min
neapolis anu presented by the bona fide
| owner and holder thereof. 1t being the
| intention of this clause to prevent the de-
| taching of our own coupons and selling
| those beyond to brokers or others,
who may have in their possession trans
| portation between our initial
and terminal points that would
have the effect of cutting regular rates;
and any broker or commission agent
found dealing in such clipped or extension
tickets, shall be deemed guilty of viola
ton of this agreement and subjected to
the prescribed penalty. Ticket agents
selling such clipped or extension tickets
must note on stub of same description of
the trans portion in connection with which
| it was sold.
| %. Whenever a violation of this agree
ment is discovered the plaintiff must give
immediate notice and particulars of the
to the party who sold the ticket or tickets,
and also advise the regular agent of the case
| line whose issue of tickets was sold, at the
same time naming to the latter the date
on which the meeting to investigate the
case will be called, which meeting shall be
I held as soon as practicable after notice is
| served, bu. in no case later than five days
after the date of the commission Of the
offense. Any violation of the agreement
that may occur between the time of the
discovery of an offense and the decision of
| the meeting on the same shall be treated
| as offenses of the same degree as the one
on which the meeting was originally call
ed.
%. As pledge to faithfully carry out
every provision of this agreement, and to
facilitate its operation, we have deposited
| 500 each in the Security bank of Mime
apolis, Minnesota, out of which penalties
for violations of this agreement are to be
paid over by said bank, only on the order
of all the parties to this agreement, or in
case of arbitration the signature of the
majority of the parties to this agreement
accompanied by duly authenticated copy
of the decision of the arbitrators will be
sufficient to withdraw the funds. It is IN
| derstood, however, that penalties are to
be paid by the line against which the
charge is established without disturbing
the money in the bank, and that if recourse
is had to drawing out any portion of mon
ely in bank, and the road whose deposit is
thus les5ened does not replace the amount
within three days after it is drawn out, it
Will be considered as evidence of desire
on the part of that line to withdraw from
the agreement and treated accordingly.
| Any line desiring to withdraw its deposit
from the bank, must give each other line
interested at least five days notice of such
desire.
%. All Investigations for breaches of
this agreement ure to be made by our
selves, but a majority decision may be ap-
pealed to arbitration by either the plain
tiff or defendant, the plaintiff to select
one arbitrator, the defendant to select one,
und these two arbitrators to select third
the majority decision of the three so selec-
ted to be final. Upon the imposition of a
penalty under this clause it must be paid
or the appeal prescribed taken at once.
%. This agreement is not intended to
interfere with the managers agreement in
any way, but is sim ply local agreement
for the purpose OF carrying out the OBJ
jects of the managers, and any penalties
provided for herein, are to be in addition
to the $500 penalty provided for by the
managers, in cases whsre the offense is in
violation of both agreements.

tary and treasurer of this agreement and

the construction of this agreement the
| intent to reform abuses shall be kept
always in view, and that no technicalities,
no subterfuges or evasions of any descrip-
ton shall be tolerated or considered in the
defense made for any violation.
%. This agreement shall continue in
force during the life of the managers
