To The Optic:
Owing to the fact that our engine
has become disabled, due TO the wreck
it passed through last summer. there
will be no electric cars moving in Las
Vegas for at least thirty days.
I'VE are making arrangements for
rolling stock with which to handle
the crowds attending the numerous
celebrations and festivities to be Of
fered TO the Las Vegas public in the
next few weeks, we are we'll enough
acquainted with the patriotic spirit Of
the people Of Las Vegas and vicinity,
to knowthat they would have patron
lied the street cars lavishly on these
days. Apologies would sound poor
on our part, but we will say that We
regret more the Inconvenience 70 the
public than the temporary loss to our
selves. resulting from this shutdown,
Arrangements have recently been
made for a new power installation, but
1t will be thirty days at best before
this will arrive, Until the arrival Of
this machinery, the freight and pas,
senger business UP the canyon Will be
handled by our steam locomotive and
train which will make two or three
trips daily. The schedule for this
train will bespublished in The Optic
