An Incident OF Parlor Car Travel.

| We believe that the train on the Shore
| line which leaves this city at 10 o'clock In
| the morning makes the trip to Boston In
less time than any other train running be-
tween New York and that city. Only par
lor cars are provided for passengers. and
| an extra fare is charged.
On Tuesday. the 9Th day Of September.
| instant. a lady little girl. and two gentle
men took passage in this train at New Lon
don to go to Providence. On entering the
parlor car in which seats had been assigned
to them. they found that four chairs were oc-
cupied by young men without any coats on.
1t was not because these fellows had no coats
that they travelled In this parlor car in their
shirt sleeves: for each mans coat hung
from the hook above his seat. Nor was the
temperature SO torrid in its character as 10
justify extreme methods Of securing relief
from the heat.
There were number of ladies in the car,
some Of whom were travelling alone. 1t Is
hardly probable that the relatives Of these
young girls supposed when they put them
in parlor car for Boston that they
would have to sit large part Of the way
in the company OF Longing loafers with
their coats of. Yet this was what they
were forced to do. Tho attention OF the
conductor was called to the improperly OF
allowing a majority OF the men in a So
called parlor car to travel without any coats
on in this manner. In the company OF ladies;
but he declined to interfere. saying that
travellers had legal right to wear such
costumes as they pleased.
We call attention to this incident. not in
any spirit OF undue criticism. but simply as
a matter Of general public interest. We
think it ought to be understood what the
traveller Is to expect when he sets out for
Boston or sends any of the ladies of his
family on to that city in the fastest train.
The railroad company undoubtedly has the
legal right to impose all reasonable regula-
lions in reference to the use OF It's parlor
cars, and some persons might not deem it
an unreasonable regulation to exclude from
a parlor car such men as. having coats.
refuse to wear them. But the Shore line
evidently intends to maintain the rights of
man, even il the result is to introduce into
its parlor cars costume better suited to
cars designed for the conveyance Of cattle.

We do not offer this as criticism OF Mr..

the warnings are unnecessary. There are
