According to the Western Passenger
association, there has been considerable
loss to railways through the practice
of commercial travellers in checking
their baggage on a. mileage book and
then travelling on an interurban electric

is to be stopped by requiring holders OF
mileage tickets to present them at the
ticket office and obtain a passage tick
ct for the distance to be Travelled. This
passenger ticket must be shown before
baggage is checked.
