This road has been making special Efforts 10 gee

NO REDUCTION IN FARE.
The New-York. New-IIaven and Hartford Rail
road offers no reduction in its rates, but 1t expects
n carry about twice its usual number OF pas
senrers at the regular rate Of 2 cents mile trom
oll stations on the main line. The arrangements
on this line have not been entirely completed, out
in addition to the regular trains from Boston every
dav. several more will be added, either as eX-
cursion trains or extra sections. FROM points
within fifty or sevenJy-fve miles OF New YORK a
much larger number OF extra trains wiz, y, ~

there may be half million strangers In New

own estimate however, and no one Is more COM
nletely In the dark thnn the general passenger
agents OF the various roads.
Assistant General Passenger Agent Richards, OF
tho New York Central and Hudson River Railroad,
said that oil he knew wns that the roads were
preparing 20 do their utmost, and II the weatheI
was good he believed they would all be tr1ed
to their utmost capacity. One thing by no means
uncertain Is that all railroad men will be ex-
trcmely glad when the celebration is over, and
the crowds get home ngain. They viii be kepA
on duty for long hours and under trying circum-
tances So thorough have been the preparations
on the various roads, however, that IL Is believed
everything win work smoothly and without acci'
dent RaIlroad officials admit however, that
from all points nearby tho cars will probably
be greatly crowded, do the best they can, and
persons In delicate health would perhaps do well
20 get here IN advance Of the crowd.
