The railroads have decided to take official
cognizance of the fact that the war is over.
Hitherto they have granted special rates to
soldiers and sailors of all grades going home
on burroughs or returning to their regiments,
but the privilege was withdrawn yesterday.
All such travellers will in future pay full
rates whether travelling on their own ac-
count or on that of the United States.
