TO MAKE CHANGE IN
THE TRAIN SERVICE
ON LA CROSSE DIVISION OF
MILWAUKEE ROAD.
Passenger No Z to Leave Portage
About Midnight or Six Hours
Earlier Than FOrmeriv-TO Be
Combined With No. So at
Milwaukee.

Important changes in the pas
senger train service on the Milwau-
kee road will be made the first of
next month. says the Portage
Democrat, il plans being made by
the officials Of the road are carried
to completion. It's expected the
new time card showing the revision
will be issued about Dec. Ist.
According to reports current in
railroad circles the most important
change Will be in the time of pas
senger train No. 2, which now
leaves Portage shortly safter s a.
m. for Milwaukee and Chicago
The time Of this train will be
CHANGED to hours earlier and Will leave
this city at about midnight.
This will probably cause the aban-
donmGnt of passenger train No. 16, on
the River division, which now runs be-
tween Minneapolis and La Crosse at
8:25 O'Clock i'll the evening and is aban-
dOnGd at that point.
THE plan is to have No, consolidated
with No. 81, the fast mail train at Mil
waukee and that train will do the local
passenger work between Milwaukee and
Chicago, No, being abandoned.
"UndGr this arrangement No SO will
be made solid mail train, running OPP
positG to No. 81, and will do no passen-
ger work. This will allow the train tC
be put on faster schedule between the
Twin Cities and Chicago and will give d
faster and improved mai! service to the
east.
"At the present time No. So is run as
a solid mail train from Minneapolis tC
La Crosse, but passenger coaches are al
ded at La Crosse and local work is done
from Lacrosse to Milwaukee. With No
doing tae early passenger work east
No 50 can be relieved of the stops at al
stations"
