IN COMMITTEE
Anti-scalping Bill Advocates Given a
Hearing

Hearing
WASHINGTON. Jan. 15.-The Senate
Committee on Interstate Commerce this
morning resumed its hearing OF the
anti-scalping bill. A statement was
submitted by Bert W. Lyon, editor OF
the Commercial Traveller. He said F.
]. Feeley and P. e. Dow, Of New York
did not represent the $4,000 travelling
statesmen of the country. While he did
not desire to be understood as claiming
to represent all the commercial travellers
Of the country, he was absolutely satis-
fed that the great majority Of these
travellers were in favor OF the pending
bill. II 1t were not for the severe re-
strictions placed by the railroads upon
local rates made necessary by the bust
ness of the ticket brokers, 1t would be
possible for commercial travellers to
make much better arrangements for
their transportation than they are now
able to make.
Mr.. Lyon held that the railroads could
afford to sell large quantities OF tickets
at a lower rate than they could sell small
quantities. He held, therefore, that the
commercial traveller. who was on the
railroads practically all the time, was
entitled to lower rates than the person
who travelled only occasionally and then
only a short distance.
Mr.. George Mckenzie, the Chicago
ticket broker, presented aff1davits from
various brokers In Chicago, st. Louis,
Boston, Louisville, and other cities, set
ting forth that they had purchased tick
cts directly Of the authorized agents of
In
commissions. In response to inquir-
les by Senator Cullom, Mr.. Mckenzie
named among the lines with which he
had done business In Chicago, the Big
Four, Chicago and Great Western, Chi
cago, Burlington and Quincy, Chicago
and Alton, Union Pacific. Monon Route,
Wisconsin Central, Union Pacific and
Rock Island. He was unable to afford
the committee details and particulars
concerning the business done with those
lines.
Senator Elkins inquired what the an
nual volume of Mr.. McKenzie's business
was, and he replied that it aggregated
last year 100000.
"No wonder you are making a fight
against this bill," said Mr.. Elkins.
The questioning Of Mr.. Mckenzie
brought out the statement that the bulk
of his business was done over the weak
lines. He said that he could do little
business with the Canadian Pacific be-
cause Of law in Canada prohibiting
brokerage in railroad tickets within the
limits Of the Dominion.
Mr.. Mckenzie did not say that he HIM
self had received commissions from the
railroads for the sale Of tickets, but he
presented statements from other brok-
ers that they had been paid commissions
from other railroads.
POSTPONED INDEFINITELY
WASHINGTON. Jan. 15.--The Senate

Messrs. Damrosch and Ellis have en-

She will sing Brunhilde in both "Die

Johann Strauss conducted his new

latest waltz emphasizes Strauss tend

his waltzes more and more into short

that both these gentlemen are Harvard

Brahms was once in his favorite bier
haus In Vienna with friend. He said
to the landlord: Bring me a bottle Of

The attitude and actions Of M. Gull
