VIII sue the Roae

BppEFoRp, July 27.-A Saco man re-
Gently bought an unlimited ticket at Pine
Point for Boston. With this ticket he
boarded an express train which stops at
Pine Point only when signalled for Boston
passengers. Then the Saco man asked to
have his ticket punched for Saco and the
conductor refused and took up the ticket.
Subsequently the facts were telegraphed to
General Manager Furber who, In reply. sent
a telegram which could be used as pass
from Saco to Boston, thus completing the
passage for which the Saco man mad paid.
Nevertheless the latter has engaged counsel
and means to push the matter further, as he
claims that the conductor had no right to
keep the ticket, even If he did stop over in
Saco after stopping an express train which
was advertised to pull up only for through
passengers.
