A MoToRMAN'S BUTTONS.
Question of Their Ownership
brought Into Court.

BALTIMORE, March 27.-Are the but
tons on a motorman's coat the property Of
the railway company or the motorman? is
a question that will likely be settled i'll the
Circuit Court for Baltimore county. The
question grew out OF the resigna tion OF his
position rendered the United Railways and
Electric Company by Motorman Arthur c.
Bushey. of the Emory Grove line.
According to the testimony of the mo-
torman before Justice r. ]. Henry. of Gym
don, he recently ran into ladder used in
repairing the line and was ordered TO give
up his car and go back 10 school" and
learn the art of running a car over again.
He intimated that his school days were
over, refused TO obey the order. resigned,
and demanded the money due him He
claimed he turned over his badge 10 the
company. but was refused his money until
such time as he should take the buttons
from his overcoat and turn them over TO
the company. He refused to do this and
went before Justice r. j. Henry and sued
the railway company for what he claimed
was due him-$11.21.
The case was heard by Justice Henry on
Thursday last Harry E. Goodwin repre-
sentng the motorman and James r. Pratt
representing the company. Justice Henry
gave judgment in favor Of Bushey for
S11.13, the amount acknowledged to be due
with interest until paid. and the costs.
The justice ruled that the contract signed
by the motorman said that badge and 9TH
er properties should be returned to the
company upon resignation and did not
mention buttons. The motorman showed
a receipt for the coat from a clothing
house. Justice Henry has since received
notice from Mr., Pratt entering an appeal
from his judgment in the case of the Cir
cult Court of Baltimore county.

POSTAL AGREEMENT BROKEN.
Germany Charged With Violations
of a Campact.

n N. Brooks. Superintendent for For
eign Mails. at the Postoffice Department
said this morning to a reporter for The
Times that great number OF sealed pack
ages are sent TO this country for delivery
by the German postal authorities. This
practice is against the Parcel Post Con-
vention entered into between the United
States and Germany, which went into ef
feet October ! last, and which provided
that all packages sent here through the
mails must be unsealed. This is for the
convenience of the customs officials who
are not allowed to break any seals. and
whose duty il is to examine all foreign
packages sent through the mail.
We notified the German postal authorl-
their parcel mail should 1t come sealed,
and that we would return the same 10 the
senders as unmallsble. To this communi-
cation the German Postoffice Department
answered that it would comply with the
provisos in the agreement. but asked for
an extension Of the privilege on the ground
that all domestic parcel mails in Germany
must be sealed. and that in view of this
fact the German people were not as yet
suInclthIE aware OF lne requirements OF
the agreement entered into between Ger
many and the United States. The extern
sion was granted by the Postofflce Depart
ment here. but somewhow or other the
warning We have given 10 Germany seems
20 have gone unheeded, as the bigger part
OF the German parcel mail still comes
sealed

Lutte" concluded Mr. Brooks all packages
must be in such state that they can be
easily opened for examination by the prop
er officials There is no discretion in the
matter and every sealed package will be
returned to the sender, We have given
reasonable time TO enable the German
postal authorities to make this agreement
