ROBBED The e1ltROADS
A Sensational Discovery Made at
Kansas City.
Passenger Agents and Conductors Banded
Together for the Purpose Of Knock-
Ing Down Eares--A Far
Reaching .~sganization.

KANSAS CITY, Mo, July can in
vestigation that has been in progress
for several weeks has resulted in the
unearthing of q monster steal by city
passenger agents working in collusion
with conductors.
For many months the Santa Fe has
been satisfied that it was carrying
many more passengers than 1T was
getting paid FIR and was at II loss to
locate the leak. The other roads, too,
felt that they were being systematic
ally robbed, but how they could not
tell Detective John I. Slough was
detailed on the case by the santa te
o.bout five weeks < with an under
landing among all the roads that
hey should let Slough work the case
alone, as SO many detectives might cx-
cite suspicion.
In consequence q far.reaching sys-
tenn of robOing the railroads has been
brought to light When any of the

OF taking him To their regular office
and selling him a ticket they would

whereby the passenger shou d be car
ried to his destination for about half
price; this amount being paid to the
conductor on the train, who upon his
return divided with the passenger
agent.
This system was originally worked
only on the lines of the agents in
volved. Gradually they began to eX'
change business with each other and
divide profits. They soon picked
out crooked conductors o"
other roads and took them
into the partnership. Finally the
combine came to include conductors on
every line running into Kansas City,
At least one broker was taken into the
deal AS the conductors were removes
from II division to another the "as
ISOLATION" increased.
Then a new feature was added-tha'
of transfers, so to speak-and the las
ISOLATION" secured its regular Gus
toners. Tho feature of competition
even entered into the business, and thu
conductors between here and Chicago
and ST Louis who would carry
the passengers the cheapes
got the money. Today the ''associa
ton has members running trains oil
every road entering the city. Detec
tive Slough has u list of 250 conductor
and passenger agents who are in tn
