ON TRAIL OF SCALPERS
BURLINGTON OFFICIALS CLAIM TO
HAVE CAUGHT OFFENDERS IN
FLAGRANTE DELICTU
CHANGED THE DESTINATION
PRESCOTT Was Made to Read st. Louis
on Tickets Reading From st.
Paul-Other News of
Railroads.

If certain evidence which has come in
10 the possession of the Burlington OF
flee in this city within the past two or
three days proves correct, st. PauI
ticket scalper will probably be put to
some very serious trouble in proving to
a court of law that he ought not TO
change his residence location.
1t appears that the continued attempts
made by the scalpers to raise piece
of paper once bona fide as railroad trans
portation to legitimate value have been
carried 70 the extreme, and that the
Burlington has trapped some OF the Of
Tenders. In many cases that have come
to the attention of railroad passenger
officials during the past few months
tickets whose limitations have expired
have been secured and disposed of to
innocent tourists, and in very many
cases tickets have been raised from
short destination to a long one, thus
illegitimately increasing the value of the
ticket Not a few of these manipula-
lions have been discovered by Northern
roads and st. Paul-Chlcago lines. 1t
has become apparent that scalpers some
where have been indulging freely in
this business
A few DAYS ago a person known to the
Burlington bought two tickets from st.
Paul 10 Prescott, Wis, the tickets be-
ing purchased at the Union depot Office
Later a conductor on Burlington train
Of the Illinois-NIissouri division discov-
cred TWO suspicious tickets in the hands
of travellers. The tickets read from st.
Paul to ST. Louis. Upon close eXamina-
ton the conductor found tlfat the destt-
nations had been successfully changed by
The use of certain chemicals.
These tickets were confiscated and
their identity was substantiated by the
marginal Numbers. The men in whose
possession the tickets were found claimed
they purchased them in this city.

TO PREVENT COLLISIONS.
American Delegates TO International
Marine Conference Meet.

WASHINGTON, Nov. S.-The American
delegates to the international marine con-
ference, Rear Admiral Franklin, Capt.
John w. Shackford and Messrs. w. w.
Goodrich, Clement A. Griscom and S. 1.
Kimball, met at the bureau of navigation
today to consider the proposition to mod
ify in several particulars the rules for
preventing collisions at sea in so far as
they relate to lights on fishing vessels.
The changes relate particularly to
trawlers in the North sea- In so far as
they refer to American fishing vessels
the changes proposed are in accord with
the views of those most directly interest
ed. After some discussion the delegates
determined to ask congress to adopt the
proposition which originates with Great
Britain. The enforcement of these rules,
If adopted by the congress, will be condi-
tional upon their adoption by other prin-
cipal maritime powers, as the intention
Is to secure greater uniformity in the
rules to prevent collisions at sea- The
American rule for lights on steam polit
vessels is also to be made the interna-
tiOnal rule

NEW YORK, Nov 8.-The Evening
Post says today: So far as can be
gathered from the non-committal state
ments of the persons interested, the In
dictment against Chief of police Devery,
for interfering with the action of Supt
McCullagh is not likely to be pressed
with any particular strength. It's partic-
ular end, it has been stated, was to get
a quiet and orderly election and it seems
that with that end accomplished. it is
considered that further prosecution Of
Devery would simply create trouble for
no purpose.

HAVANA, Nov. 9.-The committee on
rules of the Cuban constitutional conven-
ton is discussing the advisability of hold
ing secret sessions after the permanent
organization has been effected, which
will probably take place at the reopen
ing of the convention next Monday. Sc
nores Capote, Tamayo and Rivera are
the most prominent candidates for the
presidency of the convention. La Lucha
says: THE difficulty will not be in draw
ing up constitution, but in reaching an
agreement as to the relations which are
to exist between Cuba and the United
States We take 1t that the committee
will insist upon three fundamental points,
namely: No relations with other govern
ments except through the United States;
no power to negotiate loans and no au-
thority to upset peace and order"
