SAN Francisco. Oct 1.-Two important events
have occurred this week in the railroad world,
both of which Will have immediate effect on Cali
fornia's trade. One concerns the passenger trahlc
and tho other wcstbOund freight. The Central
and Southern Pacific have decided to carry third
class or cmigrant coaches regular express trains
thus making n total savingOn the old tmo bet tween
Omaha and San Francisco of four days. THESE
tbird-class cars neatly fitted up and have ar
rangements for sleeping, which make them lar
more comfortable than the flrst-class when one
doesn't take a slecpiug-car Tho Central and South
crn Pacific will make 10 money by this change as
they will lose heavily on first-class passengers, but
il will be an immense advantage to the travelling
public. many OF whom are unable to pay the large
first-cass rates for the long overland journey. 1t
is also admitted officially. that the Southern Pacific
and Atchison roads have poolcl their through
freight and passenger business and that of the
Southern California for the consideration OF an
equal share in the business. The Atchlson Com
piny will abandon its projected line OF steamers
between San Diego aud th, city. This deal leaves
tho Union Pacific aud Burlington lines ont IN the
cold, and the latter especially Will suffer heavily,
a. it depended upon the Atlantic and Pacific to
carry its west bound freight. The deal means the
total collapse of the transcOnluental pool.
