The toWnspeOple of HagerstoWn are

$50 p. M, east bound trains At this
meeting no settlement could be reach

tlce. At first it was thought by the
people of Hagerstown. that they would
be able to get stops for both of these
trains, but since the meeting of yes
terday, the citizens have given up
hope, as Chairman Hunt said that it
would be impossible for both trains to
be stopped, 1t is the general opinion
of the people, that if they get flag
stops for both trains they will be doing

most impossible for the fast trains TO
make these stops and arrive in Rich

the schedule would have TO be changed
