Strenuous efforts have been malde during the last fow years by the rallrosds to aquelch the scalping offices which were springlug up Hke mushrooms fa alt parts of the country, entails ing much loss upon the regular tickel business, 1 was thought at first that the stoppageof comilesions would drive sedlpers from tho field, nnd consequently an agrecment was enter- cdinto by the rallronds tn the clty to pay no more commissions to scalpers. This measuro lnd no effect whatever, because some of the rallfond companles did hut keop fajth, and con- tinued to pay commisaions to certaln scalpers in 8 clondestine manner In order to beat rival roads. Those scalpers who were not avle to make arrangements with raflroads directly suc- cceded fa getifng all the tickets thoey wanted at reduced rates from steamboat agents, who could get aoll they wanted at large rcbates from all rallrond cotmpanies. It the secalpers would coofino thomselves tothesalo of this class of business, no ona could find foult with thein, and there would be nu cause for the roads fighting them, But thia blginéds alone would not pay them. Theit principal profitd are derived- from the sale ot tickets that arc stolen by difshonest rallroad employea and passes Which are sold to them by versous who misuse the confidence reposed il them by raflroads, In 1875 the railroads whicli had sutlered most severely from tho Inst-named tause suceceded In induving thd Legislnturs of this Stato to pass n law prohibiting auy one from selling who Was not d reguilar apenty “appointed by some rallroad company, 'Tho hopes that this would '}mt 1 stop to the unlawful trailic in tickets and passes were wpot realized.
