IN RAILWAY CIRCLES.
The Passenger Cut-The Ogden
Depot Garfield. Etc.


The cut in passenger rates on both
roads between Salt Lake City and Og-
den, has extended slightly, and pro-
baby as far as it will, at least for the
present. Yesterday. the Utah Central
issued circular reading as follows;
Commencing May 30th. and until
further notice, the Utah Central Rail
way will sell round trip tickets from
and to all stations on its road, at
fair and a half Tiekes good ten
days from date Of issue" 1t is under
stood that the Denver q Rio Grande
will also wheel into line on the same
basis. No further cut is anticipated OF
desired by either road.
EXCURSION TALK.
MEssRs. SELLS and Geogehan will start
east either to-day or to morrow over
the D. & R. g. for Kansas CITY, from
which point they will work through
Iowa, Ohio, Kentucky and the southern
States. Messrs. WickeTsham and Sloan
will leave On the same day over the
Union Pacific for Omaha. Whey will
travel through the northwestern States.
These gentlemen will do what they can
to advertise the country, snd will pave
the way for the coming of the exposi-
| ton Car. As to the points 10 be vi tied
by the car, much has been left to the
discretion of those having the manage
ment of it, and the route cannot be
definitely stated, but 1t will doubtless
be seen at the Cincinnati exposition.
The following letter was received at
the Chamber of Commerce yesterday:
A special excursion train will leave
Kansas City, st. ice, Omaha and
Lincoln on the Is to connect at
Denver on the 18th with either the
Denver d Rio Grande or Union Pacific
excursion. Parties also have the privi-
! lege 10 come by one route and return
via the other.
The Salt Lake City Improvement
Company are organizing these excur-
siOnS on their own account and their
enterprise in this matter is commend
! able. The fine Pullman cars and the
low rate offered at this time will bring
many hundreds 10 Sslt Lake who were
never here before. Of course their OBJ
| Jet is to bring people here to attend
their great auction sale of Terrace
Height, lots which will be in charge of
Easton, Eldrid9e & Co. of San Fran
| ci:co, who managed the CO. onado
| Beach sale recently. The dates have
been fixed for June Goth and 2lst. Look
I out for brighter prospects IN the real
g tate line and consequent improve
ment in all lines of business. With the
nYnnGIfI0n tho thG
cable line, new railroads, endless
resources and many other things, Salt
| Lake must have healthy growth.
