THE ANTI-SCALPING BILL
A CONVICTION THAT 1T WILL NEVER
BE PASSED BY CONGRESS-.
Changes on the Southern Pacific Pre-
dicted-Dates for Hearings be-
fore Interstate Commission.

OF the various measures that received
consideration at the general passenger
agents late meeting in Buffalo. none was
of the same equal and far-reaching impor-
tance as the proposition to establish pro-
tective bureau which contemplates not only
the driving of ticket scalpers out Of busi-
ness. but also the prompt detection Of
ticket forging and its punishment without
the aid OF any anti-scalping legislation.
cialiy in the West. there is a firm convic-
ton that any further organized effort to
obtain the passage of an anti-Scalping bill
and the maintenance Of bureau in Wash
ington for this purpose will be waste or
time and money. They do not believe the
legislation can be had, and if it could that
It's constitutionality would not stand the
test of the judiciary. The plan most talked
of is to maintain a central bureau, prob
ably in Chicago, and have a corps of de-
tectives in the territory of every passenger
association in the country. In the event of
the forgery or other crooked transaction
every road would at once be notified by
wire. Even though manipulation were not
absolutely stopped, it would be reduced to
such low minimum that the railroads
would have less cause for worry any an
noyance, as well as loss of revenue. 1t is
stated that a detective agency in Chicago
has offered TO do the work gratuitously
for one year, provided that in the event of
satisfactory service being rendered the rail-
roads would agree thereafter to pas ~
year to keep mp the detective bureau.

VIII Curtail Expenses.

In railroad circles the impression prevails
that some sweeping changes will be made
on the Southern Pacific when Charles NJ.
Hays takes charge as president. Mr.. Hays
is an economist of the stern and intelli-
gent sort. He is not a man who fills the Of
fetal list with friends purely because they
have been closely allied with him at one
time or another. but, rather, Is a cool
headed man of business, who realizes the
Importance of his position and his relation
to the stockholders. One who is we'll in
formed regarding the property says the
read has been burdened with a SUPER
abundance OF high-salaried officials. Mr..
Hays is credited with having some plans
of his own as to the operation of the prop
erty. 1t is believed that Mr.. McGuigan,
who went with Mr.. Hays from the Wa
bash, will follow him TO the Southern Pa
cifc This is not personal favoritism when
construed by Mr.. Hays's friends, but pre-
sents the more rational view of Mr.. Hays
surrounding HIMSELF with men who under
stand his methods of doing business and
will carry out his instructions.
