NEW TRAIN SCHEDULES
REPORTED CHANCES THAT ARE
 UNDER CONSIDERATION
May Effect Atlantic Coast Line and Louisville G Nashville-0ther News of the Rail-
 road World.

Rumors of railroad schedule changes continue to circulate in Montgomery, but at present there is nothing official about them.
 One change that has been under dis cussion by the officials was the putting on of a new train by the Atlantic Coast Line or rather the renewal of an old one. A year or so ago the Coast Line had train leaving Montgomery for Florida points at 11:30 a. m. This train caught the connection here of the fast Louisville and Nashville hier, No. 1. from the north A through coach and Pullman car from Chicago was brought down on train No 1, delivered to the Coast Line here which road carried 1t to Jacksonville and other Florida points.
 For something like a year this train has been abandoned, but the plan of the Coast Line is to put 1t on again and to- morrow was the day set for its inaugura- tion. There is a hitch however, and the train will not go on tomorrow. though 1t is very probable that 1t will be put on within the next week.
 This train was formerly run almost ex- cluslvely for the Florida tourist business. and as some of the big Florida hotels open next month the train will doubt less meet the demand
 At present there is only one train catch ing the connection of the Louisville and Nashville from the north, train 5S leav- ing for Jacksonville at 7:45 p. m., with the connection of the Louisville ana Nashville train No. arriving from the north at 7:25 D. m. This train also carries out Pullman car which is delivered to 1t here by the Louisville and Nashville train No. 3, but 1t is the only Atlantic Coast Line train going East that gets a connection from the North and West.
 CopninO tho Cnaaf line gets two connections here with trains for the north It has train from Jacksonville at S:05 a. m. connecting with Louisville and Nashville train No. leaving for the north at 8:25 a. m. In the evening the Coast Line has a train from Jacksonville arriving in Montgomery at 6:15 p. m.. connecting with the Louisville and Nashville train leaving for the north at 6:30 o'clock Both of these coach and a Pullman car which are de- livered to the morning and evening Louis- vile and Nashville north bound trains here, but the east bound train leaving Montgomery In the evening is the only one that gets connection from the north.
 The inauguration of this il 30 o'clock train out of Montgomery will hardly anect the train leaving here at a. m. This IS LHo OUly lOCdl 6oIhS east and it Is giving such satisfaction not only to the road but to its patrons that its discontinuance would meet with pro- test.
 Another change that has been talked of for some weeks is a tightening of the schedule of Louisville and Nashville train No: that reaches Montgomery from New Orleans at 6:15 a. m. This train stays in the local car shed over two hours. leaving for the north at s:25 a. m The plan has been for this two hours to be cut out. No. 2 leaving for the north within a few minutes after its arrival in Montgomery. the Coast Line train now reaching here at S:05 a. m. getting in two hours earlier and connecting with No. 9
 A Louisville and Nashville official said yesterday that while this plan had been talked of it had been abandoned for the present but that he had no doubt it would eventually be done.
 The Worlds Fair in St. Louis will bring about these changes and will also result in the Montgomery division of the Mobile and Ohio Railroad putting on a double daily service, that road at present having only one train out of here in the morning and one in at night.
