completed, and the new time card will
be issued this week. Some important
changes are made in the transcontinen-
tai train service, and the new coast
train will make its first run the first of
next week, from St. Paul to Seattle.
Another one will be added from Seat
tie to st. Paul, giving double daily
train service in each direction through
Willmar. The great increase of pas
senger traffic over the Great Northern
to the coast demands this increased
service, and the new trains are added
to provide accommodations for it.
The present coast service is over the
Fergus Falls division.
