Commenting on the changes in the
Lackawanna schedule the Newton Regis
ter says of the recent visit of committee
from the Board of Trade of that place
to the railroad officials in New York:
A. j. VanBlarcom, president of the
Board, and Senator Martin, were most
favorably impressed during their inter-
view with Passenger Agent Lee and
Supt Ketcham. They were not only
graciously received but thanked for
visiting the officials and presenting the
business side of the matter. Messrs.
Lee and Ketcham evinced the most
cordial relations with their Sussex
patrons. and by their ready assent to a
reasonable request presented in reason
able manner, proved that their pro-
fessions of friendliness We're not put on
for the occasion. In addition the Of
ficials promised to better the service as
the conditions improved at Stanhope,
and the changes necessary to that end
are completed When the third track is
! laid there will be no occasion for any
delays such as now grow out of the con-
gested tracks in Port Morris yard.
| The popularity of the 70 o'clock, noon,
train from New York, which was re-
stored ON July 22, was given fresh proof
ON Saturday. Eight cars were filed so
that many had to stand until Norris
town had been passed. -Four cars came
up on the Sussex branch and after dis
charging number of passengers at
Cranberry lake and Andover, there re-
mained 1876 after the train had passed
Andover junction. The count was
made by A. j, VanBlarcom, who hap
pened to lie on the train, and it shows
what the summer travel to Sussex can
be made when given chance.
