WINS SnOOO STEALING RIDE
Do you wonder tlv.it railroad
service costs you money?
Prank Ballin, who was thrown
thrown off an Erie train while
stealing a ride and was hurt sc
that his log had to he taken off,
sued the railroad for damages &
a jury awarded him S-000.
This decision will make the
railroads all the more vigilant
and energetic in preventing
tramps from riding free. Every
railroad pass carries a provision
that the holder, if injured, is to
have no claim to damages, but it
seems that a person actualiv
stealing a ride does nor waive
that right. The railroads invi
to pay big cad ms for damage*
and of course it is nil addl'd tc
the rates the public have to pa.\
