BUTTE, June 23.-An item OF railroad
news Of more importance and interest To
Butte thar any that has leaked out for
some time was impaired to a STANDARD
reporter this afternoon. II Is nothing
less than tina Butte will soon I've virtually
on the main line Of The Northern Pacific.
Although he system OF running one
through sleeper over the new short line
via Butte has been in operation only n
little over n week, il has already been
demonstrated that IL is n failure in so far
as increasing business, and consequently
the income of the company, Is concerned.
Another objection against the n sleeper
arrangement is that passengers are not
given an opportunity to get break
fast until SO late as to make IL
really dinner. Under the present schedule
the car is detached from the main train mt
Logan. arriving here at ii a: m. After q
stop OF only a few minutes b car IL at
tached TO a Montana Union train and
| then taken to Garrison, where II is again
connected with the original train when
passengers get their first meal OF the day.
To do away with this and also give better
general service il is intended To run one
Of the through trains i'm its entirety via
Butte, thus splitting up the service n
giving Helena and the territory contiguous
only one train daily.
As soon as the new schedule goes into
effect, il will no doubt greatly increase
the popularity OF the Northern Pacific as
a trans-continental line with through
passengers, as the distance between
ST. Pau and the coast will he greatly les
sened and per force the time required To
make the Journal as well.
Ii nothing occurs TO prevent II the first
train under the new schedule will pass
through Butte next Wednesday, day after
tomorrow, il having been decided to send
out the last eastbound sleeper tomorrow
night.
II has been known for several days that
local officers Of the company hav been EN-
d~eavoring to bring about the change and
it was no doubt owing TO their representa-
ton tina the change was decided upon.
In speaking of the matter this afternoon
one of the gentlemen said that the new
arrangement would be in the nature of a
trial and il il proved satisfactory would
be continued as a permanent thing. Those
who have given the question thought and
study are confident of its success and pre-
dict that no change will be made when
once trains begin to run overthe new line.
The new Montana Union depot is about
completed and next Saturday the gene raj
Offices of the company will be removed 10
South Butte. The new quarters will he
much larger and also much more CONVEX
lent than those at present occupied. The
change Is hailed will pleasure by the of
ficcrs and clerks of the company as all
the diirerent departments will then be
under n roof and at the very base oi
operations.

ith of July special rate of one fare for tho
round trip. Tickets will be on sale Jul,
