to Calumet.

The consummation of an import
ant traffic agreement between the
Duluth, South Shore & Atlantic
and the Chicago, Milwaukee & ST.
Paul railways will go into effect
Monday next, which will give the
people decidedly improved service.
Under this arrangement, states the
Marquette Mining Journal, the two
roads will cooperate to give the
best possible service between the
Iron and copper districts and Mil
waukee and Chicago, with "a special
ly desirable schedule for the pas
senger business between the copper
country towns and the cities south,
as it will shorten the time between
Chicago and Calumet one hour and
half each way, the time of arrival
! of the c. Nj. " St. z. train from
Chicago being redpcedfrom &c clock
p. m. to 1870, whit the return train
viii. leave Calumetat 4 p. IN. instead
OF 2:3a, arriving at Chicago at the
same hour in the morning as hereto
| fore.
is close traffic arrangement
between the two roads, under which
they will be operated substantially
as one line for the purpose of giving
both passenger aud freight service
to the people along the line of the
quette and Calumet with the great
est possible expedition.
y special South Shore engine and
crew will take the C.. NJ. Il st. p.
! passenger on its arrival at Cham
| pion at :A,lO, and run it through to
| Calumet, where it will arrive at
| 1870 The same train will make
the return trip to Champion, leav-
ing Calumet at y. m, and arriv-
ing at Chicago at 1:36 next morn
ing. This will get Chicago passen-
gers 10 copper country points one
! hour aud Il half earlier than under
' The present running arrangement,
! and viii enable thcm 10 reach Chi
+ :ago and intermediate points on the
st. Paul line as early as they do
now, stGTing from copper country
{, pointS an hour and half later. IN
/ many ways this will be very great
advantage, as il will give three
! hours morn between trains at Calu
| met for tbs, transaction Of business,
answering corresponds on the
Gay of its receipt, etc,
| a day passenger train between
| Marquette and Chicago will be put
81 Monday under this arrangement.
| The train will leave Marquette in
the morning at S;36, and viii rcach
| Republic at 10 O'Clock, MilwG ukce
al Z p. M, and Chicago al 9:45 p. M
! is train wall leave Chicago early
in the morning and will araive at
Marquette al $50 p. m. 1t will give
a service from Marquette that Aas
been much needed and is SIRE to be-
come q popular one with the travel
! ing public. This will be G. NJ &
| ST. t's train throughout, and will
run in and out of Marquette on the
South Shore tracks with its own en-
ginc and crew
AS a matter OF fact the service be-
tween Marquette e,county and copper
country points under this arrange
ment will be precisely the same us
! If either of the roads owned the lines
of both and was handling the bns-
ness between Marquette county and
copper country points and the cities
south over its own line and with its
own rolling stock
1T will be as expeditions and
prompt as it can be made for the
public. The deal is most import
ant one for this reason, and leaves
little to be desired in the matter of
transportation facilities between the
towns on the line of the South Shore
road west OF Marquette, and Mil
vaukee and Chicago. In bringing
it about Manager Fitch has made
telling stroke for his road, and the
arrangement is also certain to very
preceptibly increase the traffic Of
the st. Paul road in this region.
