A New Rule r egarding Baggage
Causes Dissatisfaction.
The Sheppard Transfer Company
has secured the exclusive right to sol
icit baggage at the stations of the
Lackawanna between Newark and
Dover.
A wagon was put on in Morristown
on Wednesday but as yet nothing has
been said to the local expressmen. At

ordered to stop soliciting baggage on
the property of the railroad. This
they refused to do and matters as a
result have been decidedly lively there.
The local expressmen who maintain
their families and pay taxes here, nat

of the corporation, especially over the
prospect of exclusion from the plat
form of the station to solicit baggage
