GASOLINE MOTOR
BEGINS TRIPS
CARRIES PAY PASSENGERS TO
BEACHES
Southern Pacific VIII Abandon Loco
motives II New Rolling stock
Proves to Be Successful and
Increase the Service

For the first time since It's arrival In
Los Angeles the Union Pacific gasoline
motor, which has been tested by the
Southern Pacific Railroad company
will carry passengers tomorrow who
will pay their fares.
The car will leave the Arcade depot
at 9;15 o'clock for the first trip, which
will be to San Pedro and thence to
Long Beach and return. Two other
trips will be made to Long Beach dur
ing the day, and the car Is scheduled
to leave Los Angeles at 1870 o'clock
and $3.50 o'clock in the afternoon.
The car will run for several days
upon this schedule, and If II proves
satisfactory will be placed perman-
emily upon this run. The time con-
sumed in the round trip will be an
hour and twenty minutes and the fare
will be the same as is now charged to
ride upon the steam cars between these
two points.
Supplants Locomotive
Should the car perform the work
satisfactorily, as the officials think It
will, 1t will supplant the locomotive
and cars between all suburban towns.
As soon as more cars can be secured
II Is the intention of the Southern Pa
cific to increase the service between
Los Angeles and Long Beach.
1t has been suggested that the South
ern Pacific will put these cars into
service in order to compete with the
Huntington electric lines, but the Of
ficials deny that they have any in
tention of doing any such thing.
They say that there is not enough
travel to justify running train over
this division any longer and yet they
must take care of the business from
these points.
Eliminates Bad Feature
The service will be frequent enough
to connect with outgoing trains, and
this will eliminate one bad feature in
the present mode of operation.
AS it is now, a passenger in Long
Beach wishing to go to San Francisco
must come to Los Angeles on the cleo
trio cars in order to make connections.
Then he must pay for having his bag
ahead of him, it would arrive in San
Francisco on the train following the
one which he took.
When the schedule is arranged for
running the motor cars a baggage car
will be attached which will make one
or two trips a day. and passenger
can check his baggage upon his ticket.
The middle west and western roads
are not alone in their experiments
with the motor cars. The eastern roads
are feeling the same necessity and are
trying cars of different makes, some
of them brought from England, but so
far the cars of American make are
proving most satisfactory.
