q. & o. LOSING Money.

The longer the new schedule OF the
q, & o. remains in effect the more
unsatisfactory It becomes. The general
consensus OF opinion seems TO be
that the present schedule could hardly
be much worse than u ~ at present.
Under it's new time. No 5, wesIbound,
Is not paying expenses. A railroad
man, in position TO know, having run
on this train for several years past,
says that the company is losing money
in running the observation and din
ing cars between Washington and
Pittsburg The train ID a good one
between New York and Chicago. but
few New Workers travel the b. & o.
to the Windy City. As the train does
not arrive in Pittsburg until after Q
o'clock, most people wait for No. 8
and get in that city early In the
Train No. 5, on it's cid time, took
lots OF traffic from the coke region
into Pittsburg. but now the Pennsyl-
vania gets most Of this. In Uniontown
some Of the best patrons of the b. &
o. for years past have gone over to
the Pennsylvania.
