Ho gnwulud tho aseistance of o numbor of mon, and bought for them tickets from Cincinnati to Columbus and Pittsburgh. Thomen woro instructed to keep an oyo upon the con- duators, and osEmninUy 0 noto what bocamo of thoir oyn tickets. Two of theso mon, who wont upon the samo car, found everything all right betweon Oincinnatl and Columbus, , Tho con- ductor tore off the Columbua coupon, punched it, ond put it in his pooket, roturni ng tho Pitte- burgh coupon to thospies.

Tho spys, or to call them by & less hard namo, the dotactives, aaw tho samo conductor put snother tioketin his ooket in the same iwoy, and they also saw take o cash faro and put the money in his {mckoi without making a momorandum at tho imo of the amount rceoived, ss the rules re- quire. Othor men made liko dlscovories ; somo of them found that occasionally o conductor be- tivoon this clty and Golumbus would take up tho wholo ticket from Oincinnati to Pitisburgh and ?ut. it away wholo in his finekeb} givluf i roturn 0 tho passonger his checlr, which would bo taken up by {he conductor betweon Columbus and Pittsburgh,: Horoe, thon, was found tho secrot of tho source from which outsids ticket doalors and possibly tho miscollancous privato and hotol dealers, obtained thoir supply. Out of twenty- five_tickots bought by Dotective Hazen and used by his mon, 1t Wwas found that twonty- ono of them wero not pmlporly punchod whon firat taken up, and wero sold again. This was mado cortain by inquiring ot Pittsburgh of tho pasgongor agont, whose duty it is to receive-tick~ ots from the conductor, if the tickets bearing the date and number of thosoused by Hozen's mon woro roturned on the day they wero used. It waa found that Lwonty-ono out of twonty-five were gold a socond timo. It appoars that, no less than six conductors, and olevon other persons, including a number of agents, oro implicated in this ring for speculat- ing in Hokets, Ono nrrest was mado on Satur- dny, and othors will soon bo mado, unless the Company adopts the more morciful measure of discharging tho dishonest men, Conductor W, M.

Bome of the detactives ostimated that each conductor was taking in about 310 o day during the time thoy wers obsorving their transnctions. That gocms liko a small a sum, but it would bo dan- gorous, porhaps, to take too much at once, The digoovery of this system of fraud will turf a sharp eye on other roads, snd will o8- pecially direct acrutiny toward nll' persons out- side of regular tickot offices who offer tickats for salo. It is possiblo that tho ticket market Will bo rather dull, and it is also likely that all conductora will punch coupons with virtuous and conspicnous vigor. Xt may likewiso happenthat overy cash faro will bo jotted down on the inatant of its rocoption. 3 Tho only porsons yot named in tho ¢ ring” are Conductor Rusgoll, whose arrcst has been mon- -tioned, and a Columbus agent named Huntor. The lntter waa summoned to _this city on Batur- dny to look after some printing. Whon ho was informed of thodiscovery of the fraud he quaked with fear with than nine tickots in his possession. It will bo roadily seon that a ring composed of conductors and agents could drivon _most profitablo busi- noss, for the sgent conld resel full rates, Mr. Russoll states that ho rocoived the tickots in o logitimate way, and disclaima tho iden of fraud, ~ He says that many passengors going frop New York to Columbus buy through tickets to Cincinnati, When they roach Cincinnati, having no further uso for the coupons, they dis- fom of thom ot a very low rate, Ruesell states hat he has bought & number of these coupons and sold thom to conductors, who collocted faro, and turned the coupons owor to tho sgont at Cin- cinpati, According to Mr. I.'s statoment ho hes realized from theso transactions only 375 during his 12 yeara' connection with tho road.
