WASHINGTON, d. c., December T.
The House to-day passed the anti-tcket-

roads to put an end to the business OF

was. however, deemed inadvisabie 10
bring the question forward until to-day
The debate to-day was spirited one
on both sides. None of the amendment
offered were adopted, and the Dill passeu
as reported by the committee.
THE BILL EXPLAINED.
Mr.. Sherman. of New York, briefly eX-
planned the provisions Of the Dill, setting
forth that IL was very similar 10 the Que
passed by the House during the last Con
gress. The changes are manly restric-
tive upon corporations.
The bin requires carriers subject to the
Interstate commerce act to provide each
agent authorized to sell tickets with
certificate and makes ii unlawful tor an
officer of such carrier TO supply tickets
TO any but authorized agents. IL makes
violation of the provisions a misdemeanor,
and provides for the redemption OF un-
used or partially-used tickets, and also
provides penalties for forging or altering
tickets.
Mr.. Sherman said this legislation had
been repeatedly recommended by the IN
terstate Commerce Commission, that II
had the support Of newspapers and com
mercial bodies, and that over 800 peti-
tions in it's favor had been presented TO
the House during the present Congress.
The business community had come to look
upon the ticket brokerage business
as Illegal The amount. of fraud prac-
ticed If known, would startle any one
unfamiliar with the facts.
MANY FRAUDULENT TICKETS.
Mr. sherman displayed a great mass Of
fraudulent tickets, which he said would
give n faint idea of the frauds practiced
upon the railroads and the innocent
travelling public.
Several amendments were offered out
they were all defeated.
