SEVEN HOURS SHORTER.


CHCkGo, Nov. 12-The first official in,
tlmation of the reported traffic arrange
ment between the Chicago & Northwest
ern and the Union Pacific railroads came
from the former yesterday. The comps
Dies have formed combination for the
handling of freight and passengers, and
the joint through service is to be known
as the Chicago, Union Pacific & North
western line. A fast limited mail train
will be established November II, whereby
mail and passengers will be carried through
from Chicago to Portland and San Fran
clsco-makWg the time from Chicago to
Portland eishty-tlree hours, and from
Chicago to San Francisco in eighty-fve
hours, This will reduce the time hereto
fore made on Chicago and western as well
as New York and eastern mail to Portland
seven hours, and to San Francisco twelve
hours, the arriving time of the new train
being 6 40 a. m. at Portland and 10 :45
a. m. at San Francisco, instead OF in the
evening as heretofore. This makes prac-
tlcally delivery of mails twenty-four
hours quicker. A similar reduction in !
the time eastbound is made on passenger
and mail, which now reach Chicago at
8 80 a. m.

CATHOLICS IN CONVENTION.
Intense Enthusiasm Among the National
Lay men Gathered at Baltimore.

BALTIMORE, Nov. 12.-Twelve hundred
delegates to the first congress Of Catholic
laymen OF the United States were called
to order shortly before noon yesterday by
w. Onahan, of Chicago. Every seat
in the hall was filled and the galleries
were crowded. The first applause of the
assembly was elected by the entrance OF
ex-Gov. John Lee Carroll with Arch
bishop Ireland, of st. Paul, and Onahan.
Archbishop Ireland briefly invoked the
divine blessing and in a few remarks in
troduced Carroll as temporary chairman.
He also mentioned the name of Pope Leo.
Instantly there was hand clapping and
cheers all over the hall, soon growing into
tumult of enthusiasm. The scene was
a notable one as the delegates swung their
hats and shouted greeting to the Roman
pontiff. Carroll said:
"The congress has but two great pur-
poses at heart, the glory and progress of
the Catholic church and the continued
prosperity Of the American people,"
Daniel Deugherty, of New York, was
invited by the chairman to address the
congress pending the appointment Of the
committees. The famous orator was in
his best form and voice. He was given a
perfect ovation by the congress.
The regular work of the congress began
by the reading of the first paper, "Catho-
lie Congress" by Historian John Shea, of
New York. The next paper by Major
Henry /. Brownson, of Detroit, was
"Lay Action in Church"

was necessity, for which he was en-

\ LIEUTENANT GENERAL.
Proposed Bill to be Presented in the
51st Congress.

/ WASHINGTON, Nov. 12.-The grounC
taken by Gen. Breckenridge in favor o
| giving to the officer who commands the
army the rank of lieutenant general fore
shadows the introduction of bill for that
purpose IN the 5lst congress.
| His argument is that the system ol
rank and command will be made more
harmonious by recreating the grade in
question. The six departments will be
under six brigadier generals, and the three
divisions under the major generals, the
lieutenant general commanding the whole.
AS it now is one division is under Brig.
Gen. Miles, and it is considered hardly
fair that he should continuously have the
responsibility and duties of ma jor general
without accompanying rank and pay.
In the same way it is thought hardly
fair that Gen. Schofield should have the
duties, responsibilities and expenses of an
officer commanding the army and living
in Washington, have to meet and enter
tain foreign military guests as head of the
army, on the rank and pay inferior to
those which have accompanied the office
ever since the close of the civil war.
In case of an outbreak Of war, the adj
vantage of higher rank in the command
ing officer would be obvious, perhaps,
apart from the question of expense. The
main objection to the revival of the high
grade of lieutenant general is that it seems
unjust that Gen. Schofeld should have
honors greater than were given to Gen.
Thomas, under whom he served, and that
Gen. Miles, to whom the command would
fall in due course on Schofeld's retire
ment for age, should enjoy grade not
conferred on Meade and Hancock, his old
