NEW SCHEDULE ON !. G. G. N.
Will Get Into St. Louis Three Hours
Earlier Than Formerly.

By a new schedule on the Interna-
tional and Great Northern road that
is to go into effect on next Sunday
the trains from Texas will get into
st. Louis three hours earlier than
they have been accustomed to under
the schedule now In effect This is
due to the fact that the running time
over the Iron Mountain route has
been shortened by two hours and
fact that trains will leave the South
Texas cities, Galveston Houston and
San Antonio, forty minutes earlier
than under the present schedule.
Train No. of the International and
Great Northern will not wait at Texar-
kama for the Texas and Pacific con-
nections. but will go ahead, and the
same is true of the Texas and Pacific
train not waiting for the train from
South Texas of the Interna tional and
Great Northern. In the past it has
been the practice for whichever of
these trains that got to Texarkana
first to wait for the other, and the
two go on to ST. Louis as one train.
The two trains will now be operated
independently.
A dining Car service is also to be
inagurated Sunday between South
Texas and st. Louis over the Interna-
tional and Great Northern-Tron Noun
tain route Heretofore there has been
only a broiler buffet service, but now
the service is to be brought up-to-date
in every particular.

Special to the Herald.

Special to the Herald.
st. Louis. Mo-, Nov. 6.-The politi-
cal situation in Missouri is unchanged
today 1t will take an official count
to determine how the state has gone
for president. Taft is now apparently
in the lead by about $500 votes. Both
sides are claiming the minor state
offices. The legislature is apparently
democratic by eight to five. Hadley
will have race problem to solve as
one of his first duties, as hundreds
of negroes who supported him are de-
handing places ON the police force.
1t is believed that many of them will
be named for such places.
