miles when the new time schedule goes
into effect tomorrow. This means dis.
continuance of several local trai ms and
one overland, and a reduction OF 40 or
80 EMPLOYEES who were in the service
before the strike.
The reason for this is general de-
moralzation of business. Several of the
officials of the road who were seen
yesterday did not like to 20 into detail
as to the cause of the cutting off OF
trains, but ventured the assertion that
Vt was owing to probable dull summer
and a present dullness over the entire
Santa Fe system.
The discontinuance of few trains,
however, will affect the service to sur
rounding towns but little.
SANTA FEE TINE SCHEDULE.
The important changes noted in the
schedule to go into effect tomorrow,
will be the calling off of the overland
heretofore leaving at 3 is o'clock p. M,
the afternoon San Diego train and the
afternoon San Bernsrdino train Wis
Orange and Riverside. The overland
will depart at p. M, arriving at ~ a.
M, az usual; the San Diego train ana
San Bernardno train, via Riverside,
will depart at IL a. N. The first train
out will be the San Bernardino local, ct
$3.50, the 7 o'clock overland being dis
continued. Other unimportant changes
are noted, but those given virtually
cover the new schedule.
Whether the strike has fastened
lessening of service on the Southern
California road or not, it remains TACT
that such would have been the case had
there been no strike. 1t cannot be de-
MED that the railroad men are prepar-
ing for dull summer. On the other
hand, they predict an enormous busi-
ness next fall and winter.
TRAINS ARE MOVING.
Despite the strike and the approach
ing diecontinuance of trains, La Grande
depot presented lively appearance yes
terday. ALI, or nearly all. trains went
out on time. great rush wac made
for the Santa Monica and Redondo
trains, and the Santa Fe carried great
loads OF people to those resorts.
The Santa Fe announces e complete
resumption of freight traffic tomorrow.

A HEAVY MAIL.
An important event yesterday morn
ing Yves the arrival of the steamer Santa
Rosa at Redondo. She put into port
from San Francisco, having 800 PASS eng
ers and 20 tons OF mail aboard. Half q
dozen mail clerks were in readiness to
assort the great packages. The steamer
arrived at :l5 q. M, and by 6 o'clock
the mail car on the Santa Fe was packed
to the roof with eastern mail.
The Southern California mail was
placed separately.
The Santa Fe had q special train to
bring the passengers and mail to this
city. where they arrived shortly before
?o'cock. The mail car was attached to
the overland, which got out on time.
THE SOUTHERN PACIFIC.
Yesterday was q big day for the South.
ern Pacific. There was no indication
that there had ever been q strike. All
was hustle and business around the
depote.
There were three trains to the beach.
The one leaving at $50 O'Clock carried
Is carloads of people. The train going
to Santa Monica at 1880 consisted OF
eight well filled coaches, wh;ls the one
going out at p. m. carried 10. The day
being warm, and many people having
desired an opportunity of going
to the seaside for the last two or three
weeks, made it almost imperative that
they make up for lost time, hence the
large crowde.
All overands on the Southern Pacific
are arriving and departing as of yore.
The overlands Btll go out under the
escort OF federal troops and deputy
United States marshals. 1t ia reported
that the troops will be ordered back to
the barracks ct San Francisco in few
days, but such news cannot be con-
firfned. Marshal Covarrubias has dis-

ABOUT THE STRIKE.

the strike situation yesterday. The ma
