Ticket Frauds.

Frauds have been so numerous of late in
Offering railroad tickets, that circular has
been issued by l.. M. Allen, general passen-
ger agent of the Chicago, Rock Island &
Pacific, calling the attention of the con-
ductorS on that line to tickets that are
offered. The circular states that tickets
are being changed by irresponsible parties
over the entire line of the Rock Island.
Many schemes are resorted TO by ticket
manipulators, who use acids to remove
stamps of dates and plug punched out
holes TO deceive the conductor, and some
of them SO expert in their work that
it requires close scrutiny to detect the al
iteration. The circular explains very clear
ly the means used in defrauding the rail-
roads. 1t calls special attention or con-
ductorS to the fact that when tickets are
altered, in almost every instance the i'm
preston of the ribbon dater on the back of
the ticket is changed. This is done in most
cases by erasing the date and stamping it
in again without changing the impression
of the die of the stamp. Conductors who
detect such transportation in the hands
of passengers are to endeavor TO obtain
from the holders their names and adj
dresses, the name and address of the per-
son from whom the transportation was
purchased, the date and time of purchase,
and, also if possible, where the traveller
is going and where they can be communi-
Gated with.

THE ERIE RAILROAD WILL ENTER
THE FIELD AS A BOSTON LINE.
Scheme tn Combine Great Western
and Kansas City Southern Roads
General and Personal Notes.

The promised trouble over the differen-
tial rate to the G.. A. X. encampment at
Boston is becoming more pronounced, and
the question now is. which of the roads will
start the trouble? The Nickel-plate in
voting for the resolution returning to the
q. "A. K. the right to the one cent a mile
rate which it has had heretofore. made the
reservation that it would consent to that
rate so long other railroad made
lower rate. Now the statement comes that
the Erie will likely be the road which will
stand out for the full measure of its diff
ferential, and that being the case the
other roads will stand for their privilege.
In connection with this the question has
been raised whether the Erie is not plan
ming to ingratiate itself in Boston business
during the coming summer in a way that
VIII give IL permanent advance. The
road through TO Boston is, in a way, new
territory for the Erie, and the opening of
that field might prove TO be of more than
ordinary advantage to that road. This
route is promising, and the Erie is believed
10 nave designs on Boston business.

Another Proposed Merger.

1t is expected the Holland stockholders,
at the next annual meeting, will try to car
ry out plan to combine the Kansas City
Southern and the Chicago Great Western
roads. 1t is said that A b. Stickney, pres
ldent of the Chicago Great Western, sug-
gested the plan to add the Great Western
to the Kansas City Southern to the Dutch
stockholders who have aided him in the
development of the Great Western system.
The combination of the Great Western
and the Kansas City Southern would give
system OF nearly three thousand miles
1t would be almost airline from st. Paul
to Port Arthur, OH the Gulf of Mexico.
AT a meeting held in New York city i'm
portant changes have been made in the
direct rate of the Kansas City Southern
Railway, which it is believed portend an
attempt on the part of the Holland stock
holders to wrest the control of the prop
erty from the Harriman-Gould interests,
now IN control. The following changes
have been made, says the Kansas City
Star:
George ]. Gould, ceased to be first vice
president and was succeeded by Herman
Sielken, a New York broker who is rep
resenting the Holland interests; John Lam
bert, of Chicago, a director, representing
the Harriman-Gould interests, was retired,
and the office of general counsel, held by
Max Pam of New York, who also repre-
sented the Harriman-Gould interests, was
abolished"

About $50 head of horses were received
Tor the closing auction sale yesterday. The
consignments consisted of about the same
kinds as have been coming for several
weeks. While there were some of nearly
every description. the chunks and workers
predominated and there was rather
scarcity of extra good coach horses. There
Is continued good attendance of buyers,
the general demand is up TO expectations
at this time. and the competition is strong
enough to create active market. In
numerous cases sales of extra selections are
possibly at least S. per head higher than
week ago. but In a general way the market
does not appear to be much higher. al
though the average can be considered
strong. A few extra good draft and coach
horses are selling above 500, but as usual
tnere are not many good enough TO bring
over $40, and most of the supply of medium
TO good chunks, drafters, drivers and coach
horses sold from $40 to $780,

LIVE STOCK NOTES.

The marketing Of stock the first half Of
this week shows a fair Improvement in
hogs, very little change in cattle, and an
increase Of over 800 sheep compared with
the same time last week. and a slight
change In hogs, an increase of 400 cattle
and nearly 300 sheep compared with the
corresponding time year ago. There was
very little If any change in the general
cattle market yesterday compared with the
day before, sheep and lambs we've steady,
and the hog market active at strOhg prices.
For the week thus far the receipts Of
sheep and lambs show an increase of over
800 compared with the same time last week
and nearly 200 compared with the corre-
yesterday were 200 larger than a week ago
and about 100 larger than year ago.
The receipts of hogs for three days show
a little improvement over the same time
last week and slight change compared with
the corresponding time year ago. The
receipts yesterday were a little larger than
year ago.
Combined receipts of cattle for three days
show very little change compared with the
same time last week and an increase of
fully 400 over the corresponding time a
year ago. The receipts yesterday were
about the same a week ago and fully as
large as a year ago.

Cattle-Although smaller than usual at
this time in the week. there was a very
fair supply of cattle to-day and almost a
complete variety of stock was represented
OF course there was not a large proportion
Of the class that could be expected to
command top prices. but the average quail
ity and condition of the offerings was fully
equal TO that represented heretofore this
week The market opened with an active
request for the choice cows and heifers,
all OF which sold promptly at fully steady
prices. Common TO medium female butcher
cattle as usual did not sell promptly as
the good ones, and prices. although about
steady, We're not altogether satisfactory.
There was very fair outlet for the good
light TO medium weight steers. and prices
were as high heretofore this week.
There was very limited competition for the
best export grades. as we'll as plain butcher
stock, and they were more or less difficult
TO sell at steady prices. Finally, however,
al steers that could be sold at all brought
steady prices compared with the decline
reported heretofore this week. There was
again moderate demand for feeding
stock and no preceptible change in the
market. Bulls were steady. Calves sold
ebout steady. if good, but the ordinary
kinds generally were lower. Quotations:

To the Editor Of the Indianapolis Journal:
/ noticed a letter published in one of the
state papers some time ago, written by a
letter carrier, who says that he finds diff
Guilty in keeping up rig and maintain
ing a wife and four kids upon salary
of $500 per annum. Perhaps. if he would
write to Mr. Bristow, that gentleman
would state in detail how the thing could
be done. Bristow's Enthusiastically rule"
prevents many carriers. who, like myself,
are working on a 500 salary. from getting
proper compensation for their services.
IT places the government in the attitude of
discriminating against one grade of en-
ployes and favoring another, for in some
instances the so-called short routes are
longer and serve more patrons than those
commanding the maximum salary. Bris-
tow arbitrarily creates a rule which is not
observed, yet il serves its purpose: that
of keeping carriers from getting the COM
pensation that the law has heretofore
given them. when the route is twenty miles
in length or more We should expect a
better system, with less injustice in it,
under The management OF Bristow.

OILS. April a.-The marketing of hogs
continues about up TO expectations for THIS
...son OF the year. and current supplies
anDear 70 be about large enough TO accom-
,,osate the immediate requirements of the
trade. In point OF quality, the hogs, or
course are not nearly up TO the standard
represented earlier in the year, but most
of the consignments are in fair condition.
The quality to-day was generally reported
q trife better than yesterday. The mar
ket opened with a very fair request from
shippers, and from the start they were
reasonably free buyers at fully steady TO
strong prices compared with yesterdays
average. Packers were little slow in
getting started, but when they came into
the market the additional competition
caused an active trade and sales usually
were rather strong. compared with yes
terday's average. Most dealers quoted the
market a shade higher than yesterdays
Close a shade lower than yesterday morn
ing and strong compared with yesterdays
average 1t was observed that the grades
below top kinds developed rather the most
strength. There were not many hogs in
late. but enough to indicate that there was
rather a strong market at the close. Late
sales were not Quotably higher than the
average for the day. Extreme inferior light
hogs to best heavies sold at A75Q5.2O. and
he bulk OF the supply sold at $5-O5q5.15.
although there were several loads at the
top price. Quotations:
