ing the placing in tho former city of large
blocks of return portion of round trip
tickets by the New York Central to JUS
tify the inference that the act wa
intended to block the pending eff
fort to restore east bound pas
senger rates from Chicago. Thu
agreement to restore rates east-bount
is to be sigued on the 22d instant
but, inasmuch as q large number Of ticket
has been sold to ticket scalpers in Chi
cago of the New York Central issue
reading, both by the New York Contra
Md Lake Shore, Good from thirty day
tiom date there appears to be no posi-
bility Of q restoration Of east-bound rate
from Chicago until this stock of ticket
is exhausted. No responsibility can at
tach to tho West Shore for continuance O
Generalization in passenger business east
bound from Chicago"
