LEGAL RIGHT TO SEAT.
New York court has just handed
down adj ecision that settles the ques-
tiou rs to whether a man can hold his
ss.st rIghtfulIy by leaving his valise or
hand baggage in il when necessity calls
Kim from it for few minutes The
decision is to the effect that the man
who thus retains a seat has legal
right to il. and that the man who
takes charge OF it during the absence
NJ the owner of the baggage is a usurp-
er Concerning this question a promi-
peuf general passenger agent said:
--&hiFe most of the railroads held that
ike leaving of a valise or other bag
yaEr in seat really amounted to a
reservation. yet in the absence OF any
IcSai ruling they have been slow in
eJtr<iag a passenger from the seat he
has 1surped. Most people who thus
encroach upon another mans right be-
long and not only take another man s
seat but use his satchel or valise as
a 6oststool and get mad when question
the New York decision back of them.
the railroads will undoubtedly be less
reluctant to compel a passenger to
leave a seat that had been duly re-
served by another"
