This new accommodation arises from
the traffic agreement between the Chi
cago & Northwestern and Union Pacihc
roads. The new service will begin on
Nov. II. One through train will be run
every day, leaving st. Paul at 7:50 a.
m. and Minneapolis at 1928 a. M, reach

will be known as the the Lake Superior,
st. Paul & Union Pacific line. The cir
culars announce that this is the short

distances by these two lines to Portland
are: Northern Pacific, 1857 miles;
Lake Superior, st. Paul & Union Pa

miles. giving the Northern Pacific an
advantage of 239 miles. The new line
will do a large California business.
