Abandoning Bay Ridge Train.

To the Editor of TIL. Evening Star:
I desire to call the attention of the Wash
irgton patrons Of Bay Ridge to a practice
on the part of the managers of the train
service between these points which is Ii
able to cause them serious inconvenience.
party of us visited that place on Thurs
day, June IL, and intended to return on
the train advertised to leave there at $50
pm. When that hour arrived the people
who had gathered in the car ready to
start were abruptly informed by the con-
ductor that ord ,rs had just been received
TO abandon that train, and that nc train
would run % Washington until S:1J. The
reason given for this action was that there
were only enough Washington people there
to fill one car, and the management had de-
cided to save the expense OF one train. 1t
was found afso that this had been done
several times before this season, and of
course ii is liable to occur again when
ever the management think 1t advisa BILE,
and since If they can abandon the $50 train
in this manner they can for the same rea-
son abandon the S:15. Washington visitors
to Bay Ridge have no certainty of being
brought back until the railroad officials
consider 1t profitable to run a train for
that purpose The $50 train is advertised
in the daily paper, on the daily programs
and OH the tickets sold at the depot, and
10 more fragrant instance of bad faith and
violation of contract can well be conceived.
You ere at liberty to give my name 70 any
one desiring verification Of this statement.
