seems likely to be verified. a. j. Smith.
general passenger agent of the Lake Shore,
called a meeting Of the passenger officials
doing business over the Vanderbilt lines.
At that meeting IL was directly charged
that the Wabash was dealing with scalp
ers. and Mr.. Smith accused others of the
diferential lines with playing into the
hands of scalpers. either directly or in
directly. Mr.. Smith stated that the Lake
Shore and the Michigan Central were suf-
fering in their business by the so-called
weak lines paying excessive commissions to
scalpers and coupon ticket agents. 1t also
developed at the meeting that the Wander
biit lines had made preparations for the
abolition of passenger differentials and
that meeting or executives of all lines
east Of Chicago would be held shortly.
