In anticipation of the holiday rail- road travel which is even now becoming heavy, the Mobile and Montgomery di- vision of the Louisville and Nashville will make a change in passenger sched- ules next Sunday.
 While the change originates on the Mobile and Montgomery division 1t pri- marily effects the fast passenger train No. all the way from New Orleans to Birmingham. The Louisville and Nash vile has local train leaving New Or- leans just ahead of train No. at night and running through to Mobile. This train does most of the local work be- tween New Orleans and Mobile former ly done by No. 2, very materially re- lieving that train of local work. This local train fs called No. 96, and brings the equipment carried to New Orleans by the New York and New Orleans fast mail. No. 97.
 At Mobile this local train has, for the past year, been annulled, its eQuip- ment and passenger run being ccnsol- dated with train No. 2, which has been bringing 1t to Montgomery. Beginning Sunday this local train. | No. 9S, instead of going dead" at Mo- | bile, will be continued on to Montgom, | cry. It will do all the local passenger | work between Mobile and Montgomery | formerly done by train No. 2, reliev- l ing that train of all local work and consequent stops. In addition to do- | ing the local work for No. the local will get the Pensacola Pullman car at Flomaton and bring 1t to Montgomery. this car having formerly come to Mont- gomery on No. 2. making that train very heavy.
 The equipment of No. s7 will. of | hA hrn ert, Montgomery by this local, resulting ip making No. 2 virtually limited train from New Orleans to Montgomery. In Montgomery the fast mail leaves the Louisville and Nashville. the Western Railway getting the equipment from train 96, which arrives in Montgomery at 6 a. m.. and returning 1t te Atlanta. Train No. 2, however, continues to be relieved of local passenger work on the North and South division.
 At a. m. Q local passenger train. No. s. leaves Montgomery and does all the local work between Montgomery and Birmingham, so that the only stops that train Mo- 2 makes between Mont gomery and Birmingham are Calera and the usual water tanks. The only other train that will change schedule on the Mobile and Montgom. cry division is train No. s. the local passenger train leaving Montgomery for Mobile at 7:20 a. m. This will on- ly be a change of twenty minutes. how ever. this train leaving at o'clock in- stead of 7;20 a. m.
