The passenger service on the

stock are old and in bad repair,
toilet arrangements insufficient, and
lights and water generally very I'M
satisfactory, dilapidated and dirty.
Passengers are laid out for freight
trains, and schedules are not strict

Commissioner kincannon, in re-
ferring to the Southern from Green
vile to Columbus, reports the
freight service very satisfactory, but
the passenger service as off-color.
He reports that improvements in

necessity for better train service as
well.
