scalpers have already begun their eff
forts 20 prevent the passage of the
Sherman and Cullom bills by Congress.
These measures are Identical and pro-
hlblt the dealing in railroad tickets ex-
cept by authorized agents. The petition
blanks contain the following argu-
ments:
l.. The bill would tend to disturb n
natural and legitimate right to dispose
OF ones own property in the open
market.
2. 1t would enable the strong rail-
road systems to shut out the weak lines
On through business and thus disturb
competition.
g. 1t would send a citizen to prison
and brand him with infamy for dispos-
Ing OF his w property, while Imposing
no penalty upon the railroad company
for failure to redeem tickets as provid-
ed.
4. The business OF ticket brokerage
is directly In the interests OF the travel
ing public.
5. The passenger traffic is controlled
almost entirely by trusts, leaving the
people at their mercy. except for the
relief afforded by ticket brokerage.

CYCLING.

A man Yesterday rode a mile on a BIZ
cycle faster than any man ever rode
before, The time in which the mile was
covered was one minute four-Htths Sec
onds, says the New York World. The
mar who did 1t was Charles NJ. Murphy,
Of the Kings County wheelmen. He
was paced by II sextet, and had a wind
varying in velocity from forty to fifty
miles an hour helping him along.
Murphy had long been anxious to go
the mile road record. He decided that
his effort to reduce the record, when It
was made, would be confined to the al
most perfect asphalt paving on
Twenty-second avenue, running from
Slxtieth TO Elghtieth street, Brooklyn.
The distance has been surveyed many
times, and all the civil engineers have
agreed that the distance is Just ten
feet more than a mile. Four tlme-keep-
ers, each with his w stop-watch, were
selected. Two OF them we're W II. Ow-
en- and T. W. Post, the racing men. All
the timers were men OF experience.
When the four watches were compared
Murphy's time for the mile was one
minute four-tlfths second. All the
watches were alike when compared at
the finish,
