TICKET SCALPERS HIT HARD
Court Hslds it Fraud to Deal in Return
Halves Of ExcurIion Passes
vAINLY PLEAD RAILROADS BROKE LAW
Users, Apart from Original Holders,
Held Liable to Prosecution for
Forgery Because of Signed
Contract on Face.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 13.-A decision OF
sweeping Importance to ticket scalpers and
the railroad passenger business generally
was delivered today by Justice Hagner of
the equity court of the District Of Columbia,
who permanently enjoined thirty three Of
the local ticket brokers from selling the
Grand Army special excursion tickets is
sued by the Pennsylvania, Southern, Balti-
more & Ohio and Chesapeake & Ohio rail-
roads.
The defense OF the brokers was that they
we're pursuing a legal, licensed brokerage
business and that the railroads in combin-
ing in the establishment of joint ticket
agency here during the encampment for the
visin6 Of return tickets o'ated the Sherman
antitrust law.
The court held that the tickets sold by
the roads on account of the Grand Army
encampment bore contracts signed by the
purchasers in the presence OF a witness and
were absolutely void when used by any
other than the original purchasers. The
tickets distinctly read that any one except
the original purchasers attempting to use
them woud be subject to prosecution for
forgery.
This contract is absolute, according to
the court, and any violation of it consti-
| tuted fraud, on which the suit at bar for
the injunction was properly based. The
court declared that the contentious of the
complaining roads were tenable.
AS to the claim OF the defendants that
the roads violated the antitrust law 1t was
held that the joint ticket agency could not
be considered in that light, as the agency
had nothing to do with the fixing of rates.
Further. the defendants had shown that
