CUT OUT PASSES.
Public Utilities Commission Issues
More stringent Order.

After a lengthy consideration of the
utilities act relating to passes and free
transportation for members and en-
ployees, c. F. Foley. chairman of the
Kansas public utilities commission.
called in all complimentary tickets over
the Topeka railway system held by
members and employees OF the commits
sion Saturday afternoon. Hereafter
those connected with the utilities COM
mission will pay their fares on the
street cars of the city.
The decision on the part of the COM
mission is regarded as an echo from
tn last state campaign, when much
publicity was given the fact that GER
tain persons connected with the COM
mission were using passes. The de-
cision is also expected to stave off ex-
pected legislation on the subject. as it
is understood that bills would have
been introduced at the coming session
of the legislature curtailing consider
ably the pass privilege among the COM
mission force.
Saturdays act Of the commission is
the beginning of strict measures that
will be enforced by the commission as
to the pass privilege, according to an
announcement made by Mr.. Foley.

of Gems.

New York, Dec. 21.-Fifty thousand

Gently by a Chicago bride have been
returned, the advertised reward of
$4,000 has been paid, no questions
were asked and the incident is closed,
according to an announcement made
today by the manager of hotel
where the couple were staying. Their
identity remains a secret.
The bride dropped the jewel case
as she entered her automobile upon
leaving the theater, it was said, and
the finder read the advertisement and
returned it.
The reason the couple declined to
reveal their identity, 1t was said at the
hotel, was that they did not want to
give their relatives an opportunity to
scOld them for carelessness.
