Chicago Times, 2Ist.
Commencing from to-day the b. d y.
proposes TO ahou: monopolizs the travel
her ween Chicago and Washington or
know the reason why such should not
be the result The road has new
schedule going into effect this day OF
our L :rd and no matter as TO the hour a
man may want to leave for the seat OF
political and governing power the Is q
% will put him there all the wav from
seven to twelve hours ahead OF rival
lines The orning train OF "lhe liver
AS the hovs spesk Of it at che B. d y
office on Clark street-which used 10 ioI
poking along stopping at cross roads
and saw mills now gets mp and dusts
after o fashion at once healthy aod in
vieorating Leaving Chicago at eight
ten the dome Of the capt. Comes in
sight Just about the time next day when
a man ietls as II It was not the dinner
hour it ought TO be In seven hours
less time than it takes corresponding
trains to tesch Washington the B. q y
now makes it, the train leaving here In
The morning arriving next dav ut mon
while Other roads get in a; supper tim.
Aside from hring TINS enabled to savr
80 MANY hon in transit there are g,od
many who are pleased with the oppnr-
tuni'y Of ending the afternoon and
evening in Wa ,hing,on sni leasing by
the night express o. the B. d 0. reach
Naw York early the following morning
This can be done nv taking ''lhe B. d
o. flver" leaving a, $40 in ,s" morn
ing but 1t cannot he done on any train
on any other road There has been a
big change in the night train as we'll. as
instead of leaving as on othe. lines JUS.
in "tbe shank Of the evening" and most
e0ectuallv depriving one of any oRpor
tunily for enjnvment il now departs Al
ten minutes OF eleven, reaching Wa b.
ington eailv the second morning, Balti-
more for hreak fast and Philadelphia and
New York for dinner. AS if these t~o
trains were not enough to clinch the
Washington and New York travel be
yond a possibility OF doubt the early
evening train leaves at ten minutes after
five. This in another "daisy" and must
almost parslyze the boys Of the other
lines on Washington business IS it pulls
up at the National Capital whole night
ahead of the five o'clock trains on Other
routes and they all run them While
the B. & o. thus almost practically does
awav with competition to Washington
by offering the public facilities which
cannot be equalled it makes an equally
strong claim for the trsvei TO Baltimore
Philadelphia and New York. Bv NJ
other line can Washington be visited e.
route 10 New Y,rk without additions
expense for railroad fare and more hours
upon the road.
Certainly the B. & o. never before
had so advantageous schedule ont o
Chicago and public not satlsfi d viii
so excellent an arrangement Of train'
would be hard 10 please indeed. /
would he superhnous to gn into detail al
to through. palace sleeping cars. parlo
cars and dining cars. All first class
roads run such nowadays and the B.
o is first class road, in every particu
lar Speaking Of through cars it sh' ul,
be stated that the train leaving a. five
ten is still the only solid train from Chca
go to New York running through withou
change OF cars OF anv class wha'ever.
