L. Ct. RECOGNIZED
Rock Island Is Permitted to Sell
Tickets Over the Line.

The utilities commission today
granted the Rock Island permission
to sell thru tickets over the Leaven-
worth & Topeka to Leavenworth or
any other point on the L. & T.. from
Abilene, Clyde, Hertngton, Hutchin-
son, Clay Center, Dodge City, McPher-
son, Manhattan. Salina, Wellington,
Wichita, and other points in Kansas
reached by the Rock Island. Applica-
ton for permission was made both by
the Rock Island and the orphan,
Leavenworth & Topeka.
In past years it has not been pos
sible for the Rock Island to sell tick
cts direct to Leavenworth. Agents
either had to sell tickets to Topeka or
Kansas City or some other connecting
point with Leavenworth. The passen-
gers were obliged to~buy a second
ticket in order to reach Leavenworth.
A like arrangement is made for the
L. & T. in selling tickets to Rock Is
land points west of Topeka.
