SUCCESSFUL WAR ON
 THE. RAILROAD SCALPER

upon their acquisitions with local tickets ana in addition with such of the 2.5oO others forms as there Is lineiy to be demand for at their stations. More over, blank tickets, that is cards read ing .sblank" to ''blank--- are is- sued in order to meet the requirements of any passenger who may be eccen- tric enough to wish to go somewhere where it had not been foreseen that anyone would care to 20. The amount of travel over the tracks of large cou,pany such as the New Haven Road can 'perhaps be realized when one re- members that the average number of tickets Issued by the company each month to It's agents has been estimated at 4.500. .0O0.
 To the passenger who appears at the oflce a few minutes before his train leaves the gard and hurriedly demands a ticket. let us say from Providence to Richmond, there seems to be no reason why the agent should not have the re- quired ticket all ready waiting for him with the price at his tongues end. It Is no easy task. however, to arrange matters so that person can travel from one town in the United Stafes to any other without being compelled to buy more than. one ticket. Every agent is supplied with rate books containing the fares not only of his own lines, but of all the connecting lines. The fares to the most important points on these lines 1t does not take him long to know by heart Thus. the agent at Providence would probably know at once the fare to Richmond. The pas- senger would receive a through ticket with several coupons for the various railroads which he would have to travel over after he left the New Haven lines at New York Should he wish to reach some small point beyond Rich- mond. the last coupon on his ticket would reach from Richmond to blank a space which would be filled up in writing by the agent and the fare from Richmond to his destination looked up in the rate book and added to the fare from Providence to Richmond. In this case the fare from Providence to New York would. of course. fall to the New Haven Road. From New York on to the travellers destination the fare would be divided between the various railroads over which the passen- ger travels according to the percentage previously determined by the various railroads concerned.

 Three pretty women who worked with the gang are being sought by the sec ret service agents. These women met the victims when they arrived in New York, and led them to the place where they were to be robbed
 The men arraigned before Commiss- toner Benedict are Elmer Brown, alias Albert Cooper, who the police consider the most expert green goods man Tn the country; Henry Rogers. alias eco Primrose; Geo. Harley, alias Glass Eve George; Charles Wilson, alias Dan Greed, and Albert Sloan.

After taking the 'come-on" around town and showing him the sights, the victim would be led to the back room of a saloon in Williams burg, where the trade would be made. Then the man would be given scare" about the police and he would leave town, only to find that the package had two or three good bills on the out side, while the rest was blank paper.
 Some of the letters sent the victims were in evidence before the commits sioner to-day.
 Numerous complaints of the fraud were sent to the Secret Service Depart ment, and Postoffice Inspector Boyle. Secret Service Agents Henry, Helms and Moser and detectives from the Cly- mer Street Station went to the Plaza Hotel. at Rodney street and Broadway. where they found the men. The gang at first offered resistance, but when they saw that they were overpowered they gave in and spent the night in the Clymer Street Station.

 There lies the great value of LIquo- some. It Is the only way known to kill germs in the body without killing the tissues. too. Any drug that kills germs is a poison, and 1t cannot be taken internally. Medicine Is almost helpless in any germ disease. It Is this fact that gives LiquozOne it's worth to humanity.
