SOME ROADS ISSUE PASSES.
Several Texas Lines Exchange Trans
portation for Advertising.

| Galveston, Tex. Jan. 12.-When the
words mot good for any portion of
an interstate trip" have been stamped
on an annual pass or trip pass, the
Sunset lines hold that the railroad
company had done all possible to pre-
vent misuse of the ticket, and that any
one using the ticket on an interstate
trip is solely liable to the penalty pro-
vided by the Hepburn act. This view
of the matter has been held by the
legal department of the lines and the
company is acting in conformity with
the opinion. All manner of annual
passes and mileage issued to others
than are provided for in the act as be-
ing entitled to interstate transporta-
ton are stamped with this sentence,
and the company believes that the in
terstate commerce commission Will
hold it absolvable from any transgres-
sion that might be done by the user OF
the ticket. Furthermore, all users of
this class of transportation are re-
quired to sign the ticket and this. also,
is held to exonerate the company from
any misuse to which the ticket might
be put.
In opposition to this is the stand
which the Katy has taken. This
roads contracts for advertising with
newspapers are made for both inter-
state and intrastate transportation, the
consideration being that the pro-
prietor of the newspaper shall use the
Katy under all circumstances where
the road is possible to be used. The
proprietor shall also route all MEM
bers of his family over the Katy, SER
vice being equal or better, and shall
in every way endeavor to assist the
Katy to secure passengers. At the end
of stated periods the difference be-
tween the price of advertising and the
price of transportation issued shall be
paid in cash. Just what relation the
routing Of his family over the line
holds to the Interpretation of the Hep
burn act has not been elucidated in
further emanations from the offices OF
the Katy.
AS is known. the Santa Fe, follow
ing after the system headquarters in
Chicago, issues no newspaper transport
tation, state or interstate. The Rock
Island-Frisco lines have taken the
same view and withhold newspaper
transportation for advertising. The
International & Great Northern has
taken probably as sensible view OF
the situation as any road in the state
and holds that transportation issued
on newspaper contracts is valid when
applied to intrastate business. That
road is also issuing its usual number OF
state passes, with the proviso, how
ever, that they are to form no portion
of an interstate trip. The Sap has an
nounced no definite attitude in the
matter. 1t is understood, however,
that it will continue to issue its regu-
lation intrastate passes, subject to
such provisions as the legal depart
ment may qualify them under its in
depreciation of the law.

CUT OFF AT CHICAGO.
Pennsylvania Seems to Fear No Hand
leap to Western Traffic.

It is quite evident that the directors
of the Pennsylvania lines have no idea
that it will ever be a serious handicap
to that system that its lines do not ex-
tend beyond. the Mississippi valley.
They have been singularly negligent m
providing against 1t, at least. and it is
quite evident that they consider the
territorial position of the Pennsylvania
impregnable as it stands. Whether
they do or not the door seems to have
been shut against them at Chicago.
There is not a Western road of impor-
lance left with which they could enter
into alliance, and none at all that
would extend their line west of the
Missouri river. The Hill lines are
there, it is true, but the outlook for
union between them and the PennsyI-
vania cannot be said to be promising
or probable,
