transaction was consuinmated six weeks

licity given it in both New York and

The vcsiibulc train is urw factor In
Western railroad transportation. 1t Is
claimed FOR these trains that on account
of their being connected byr,tecl hoods
all danger OF tolescopiug in case Of ac'
cidcnt is removed, tie train being
practically one long car. 1t is certain
that the oscillation OF the cars is greatly
reduced. aud 1t IL also certain that the
vestibule trains afford the greatest com
fort yet known to travellers. The adop-
ton of this style Of train by the Chicago,
Santa Fe * California Railway between
Kansas CITY and Chicago is a strong bid
for the passenger traffic between the
West and Chicago. This new road Ia
in many particulars ahead of any of its
older competitors. ard will undoubtedly
be the popular road TO Chicago.
