To the Editor of The Evening Star:

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
was . witness last Wednesday morning OF
the operation of what seems to me a most cruel
and arbitrary rule of the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad Company. A little woman was about
to leave Washington for the west on the II: 80
train over the L. and o. Her relatives and
friends were with her, but were stopped by the
gateman and good-byes had to be said right
there. This was proper enough and all
acquiesced in the rule, litsls dreaming, how
ever, that 1t would be enforced to the exclusion
Of the lady's husband, but this was done. The
gentleman explained that the lady was his wife,
that che was going to Chicago and travelling
alone and very politely asked for the privilege
of putting his wife safely on board her car; but,
although the little woman, unused to travelling,
bewildered and with tears in her eyes asked
what she was to do and where she was to 60,
the gateman said the porter would show her
and carry her baggage and the husband had to
leave bis wife to be escorted to her train by a
colored porter and could not even see her got
on the car. Now if this is q rule of the B. and o.
it is bad one. The travelling public and espe-
cially timid women should not be made to suffer
from such rules. However proper they may be
under other circumstances they are downright
cruel when imposed in such q case as have
just cited. A husband in buying q ticket for
his wife for long journey ought certainly to
have the privilege OF seeing her safely on the
right car with her belongings

of the citizens to crush out the small boy.
At this season of the year he is the target for

plants made TO the police just now are arraign-
ments OF Young America. If he coasts down
the street in winter he makes too much noise or
threatens to cut some fellows legs off. II he

slant object of attack by the police.
