The Travelers' Protective notorial on ha
aant a communication to the railroad com
missioners In which relief of some fort ta
asked from the hardships ami Indignities
imposed by a largo numbir of station
ag'nts throughout Klra.kn. The com
munlratlon refer to all the railroads of
Ihe state, none being singled out.
The traveling man declare they are often
met with Insolent replies to thfir Inquiries
' and that It la no uncommon thing whan a
train la ennnounced thirty minutes late to
find eventually that It la four c.r live hours
late. Thla causes them to hover about the
depot and suffer the Inconvenience of a
long wait, when If the agent would give out
the right Information, undoubtedly In hi
possession, they might plan their work
differently or frequently get" in a night's
rest. They aay that It la not uncommon on
ome of the line to be told a train la lata
but few minutes, and then hour afUr
find that It had been annulled. This ha
caused them untold trouble and all their
pent up Indignation i expressed In the
communication to tha board.
The traveling men also notify the rail
road commlaaton that If the railroad com
pany cnmiilalnlng about their presence on
limited train will furnish thorn a chair
car they will not Indict their presence upon
the through passenger in the big eleepers
and parlor cars, but will play pitch during
tholr long Journey and will not even bother
the conductor.
Qnotea from Tesna I.nw.
In It petition the Travelers" Protective
association quotes from -the Texas law
with recommendation that some of the
feature be adopted to assist passengers
In getting ovtr the road. One section re
quirt u railroad company to Btart a train
from point of origin in accordance with
the advertised schedule, and that said
train, except from unavoidable accident
en route shull conform to the published
schedule, provided the trains may be held
thirty minute al origin or junction point
for connections.
They also recommend that railroads shall
start and run their cars at regular times,
to be fixed by public notices, and shall fur
nish sufficient accommodations for all pas
sengers who shall within a reasonable time
previous time thereto offer to travel.
Section three provides "that In case of
refusal by such corporation or their agents
so to take and transKrt any passenger or
property or to deliver the same at the reg
ularly appointed time., such corporation
ahall pay to the party aggrieved all dam
ages which shall be sustained thereby with
coals of suit, etc."
Competent Dispatchers.
Another section provides that every rail
road shall employ a competent train dis
patcher, whose duly it shall be to keep in
formed of the movement of all trains, and
It shall be his duty to keep all agents at
stations having telrgraph offices Informed
of the movement of all passenger trains
' thirty minutes prior to the time they are
due. It 1s also the duly of every railroad
agent to ascertain thirty minutes before
tho scheduled lime of the arrival of pas
senger train and bulletin the time of ar
rival. 1 If the train Is more than thirty mtn
' u tea late It shall be tho duty of the agent
to nnd the cause of the delay from the dis
patcher and bulletin such . information.
Mohler on Train Service.
Cencral Manager A. I,. Mohler of the
Vnlon Paclfhi liua written the railroad com
missioners a letter Informing them of the
road's recent order, udmittlng their through
trains to local traffic. He suy train No.
1 and 2 have been put back with the re
striction that only personal baggage be
allowed on such trulns, as the crew have
no timo under the fast schedules to handle
anything else. This new order, Mr. Moh
ler says, gives the people along tho road
from Omaha to North Platte fifteen trains
open for local traffic, service which ho
thinks Is not excelled anywhere. He hope
the patron of the road will be satisfied,
and lie think that tha change may be
effected without destroying the road's
through patronage.
Huntley People Object.
Eleven business men of Huntley have
sent a communication to the railroad com
mission, protesting against the present
management of the old Kansas City &
Omaha railroad, which was taken over by
the Burlington In 1902. They refer to the
servlco furnished patron as being a "tor
ture." and inform the commission that tho
people along the line refer to the train
operated for passenger service as the "sour
milk special," , "the molasses limited" and
tho "Dally construction train." They aay
tho trains frequently atop along the right
of way for half an hour ut a timo to
penult repuir of the track, nnd that hogs,
passenger and freight are carried togeUier
on on train.
They ask whether the consolidation of
the line with the Burlington was not II-
