Additional Train Service Between Fair
haven and Seattle

Superintendent Borie of the Fairhaven
and Southern branch, states that 1t Is
probable that there will soon be return
to the service existing over the road prior
to the recent change. He is in communi-
cation with the Seattle, Lake Shore and
Eastern people, with the object OF secur-
ing a through train Of that line over the
Fairhaycn and Southern to this city
direct. Failing this, an afternoon train
will be put on, giving the same service as
heretofore. The afternoon train would
not have been discontinued, but for the
fact that the locomotive and rolling stock
were required on construction on the
Seattle and Montana. A through morn
ing train will probably be put on from
Blaine to Sedro. Mr.. Borie has commu-
nicated with the head Office at st. Paul
and it is more than likely that thes'
changes. as recommended, VIII b'
adopted. and a more satisfactory service
established. Railroad business IS rathe
quiet. and this is especially true OF the 10
traffic, which has hitherto been an I'm
pOrtant item in traffic.
Tracklaying on the Seattle and Mon
tana will begin about July 18th, an
through trains will be running froi
Fairhaven to Seattle about September IS
About forty miles Of track are alread
laid and the work is being pushed raj
