SECOND CLASS TICKETS
SOME OF THE ROADS TO WITHDRAW
THEM FROM SALE ENTIRELY.
The Monon Making Good Speed Rec
ords-General Omces of Pennsy1-
vanfa Lines to Go to New York.

The persistent efforts on the part of rail-
road men to retire all second-class tickets,
which are a rate-disturbing element, are
now bearing fruit. Yesterday local passen-
ger officials received communications from
Chicago lines to the Northwest in the form
OF a new rate sheet on which second-class
tickets to Colorado points are entirely with
drawn. Similar action has been taken by
several other roads reaching Western ter
ritory. and it is believed the movement will
become general The movement against the
second-class ticket has been in existence
for a good many months. and, like other
measures aimed at upholding rates. has
had a stormy career so far. but is now able
10 see smooth waters ahead. Railroad men
object to it because they say it is n useless
sacrifice of revenue, as IL cultivates little
or no business and allows much of the reg
ular legitimate travel TO go at rate that
Is lower than they would otherwise pay.
Then they have had feeling that 1t is not
altogether democratic to have more than
one class of rates. hence they have ex-
pressed a desire TO exclude them. The sec
ond-class ticket has differed from the first
class in one respect only. 1t was given at
q lower rate. but permitted the traveller
everything given to the first-claSs passen-
ger except the privilege of taking sleeper.
Railroad men say that the second-class
ticket, like the homeseekers' rate, must go.
Lackawanna Causes Protest.
The Lackawanna is charged with doing
some crooked work at it's ticket office in
Chicago. and 1t has gone so far as TO lead
to the Central Passenger Association enter
ing a protest against the method pursued.
The trouble originated in Chicago, and is
explained as follows: At the ticket office
of the Lackawanna large case is filled

transportation on the Lackawanna east of
Buffalo. The clerk in charge is always in
readiness to supply a prospective traveller

I'm his Office from Chicago to Buffalo, and
on one pretext or another has the traveller
wait while he goes or sends by a rear-door
route TO the Nickel-plate office for ticket
10 Buffalo. This Is exactly what scalpers
do except that the scalper usually cuts the
rate in addition to securing commission
from the railroad for selling its ticket.
The other Eastern lines complain most of
the fact that the Lackawanna office is
practically an additional city ticket office
OF the Nickel-plate. Years ago all the rail-
roads terminating at Chicago entered into
agreement that none OF them would
have more than one ticket Office in addi-
ton to the union Office at the depot used
by each line. The Lackawanna processes to
