Ottumwa. Feb. PA novel point has
been decided in the courts here in ia
vor of railway and against men who
used a portion of a round trip ticket
and, sold the return portion to other
parties.
A jury in the district court sustained
the stand of the Chicago, Burlington
and Quincy Railroad company in it's
contention that it was entitled to re-
cover for the sale of the unused por-
ton Of a return trip ticket good from
Abba to Salt Lake City and return.
While the railroad company de-
manded $50 for the ticket, the price Of
the fare from Salt Lake City to ST.
Joseph, Mo-, to which city some one
unknown to tho plaintiff travelled on
the ticket, the jury found that G. w.
Blair and W. P Chisman must pay SO
each to the railroad company.
The ticket had originally been sold
to Blair for $30.75, being only SO cents
in excess of the one-way fare to Salt
Lake City The railroad company
claimed that the return portion of the
ticket had been sold by defendants.
