TRAVEL GERMANY |S NOW BEING
 RESTRICTED

LONDON. Jan. s. - The prohibition of all unnecessary railroad travelling in Germany is likely to be followed shortly by similar measures in the en- tente countries. Such a prohibition has for some time been under cOnsid- eration in England. and the Board of Trade a few weeks ago issued an ap- peal which was regarded in many circles as preliminary to restrictive legislation. The appeal urged in em- phatic terms that every person pro posing to travel by train should con. slider whether the journey is really necessary.
 The military authorities have de creed that still more men must be re- leased from the railways for army service. This will inevitably mean some reduction of work and the only economies which appear possible. ac- cOrding to the railway managers. are connected with the passenger train service and in securing greater expe- dition on the part Of shippers in hand ling freight traffic.

In its contract to purchase the road the government permitted the old company to bring suit against Bal laine with the proviso that anything collected would go to the old owners Suit was brought IL was 10 recover possession of the townsite Of Seward owned by Ballaine, on the allegation that Ballaine used company funds to acquire that townsite The suit was won by BalIaine. Judgment for costs was rendered in his favor Those costs amount to about $2O,o00.
 W. C. Edes chairman Of the Alaskan engineering commission, is now the president of the Alaska Northern rail- road all of the stock of which is owned by the government MT. Bal laIne is here presenting his bill of costs in the action He opines that the owners of the old company, being Can adians, can not be mulcted, but that the new owners of the company, name ly the United States government can, and that civil processes can run against their railroad the same as against any other successor.
 The department of the interior has referred Mir. Ballaine to J. P. Cotton, ol New York. attorney Ior ,4asy -4rr+a@~- kan engineering commission MT. Cotton is frisking the law books 1r some precedent on the subject.
