HOUSTON. Tex, Sept. l5.-(spccial)
The last legislature passed an anti.
ticket scalper law, which compcls rail-
roads to redeem unused portions Of tickets
at a proportlonlte rate to the through
ticket. 1t also makes it felony to sell
unused tickets. The law is severe and
sweeping, but It has been daily eyaded
or violated. The Western Passenger as
sociation and the Texas roads are now
at loggerheads because the Northern
roads viii not print ON their tickets the
Texas penalty clause. Some OF the ifcxns
roads, notably the Missouri Kansas and
Texas, laugh ut the law, while the Hous
ton and Texas Central aud the Southern
Pacific nre determined TO have II on
forced. Tonight warrant was sworn
