Schedule Troubles Line.

PORTLAND, June 30.-The South
ern Pacific offices in Portland are hav-
ing trouble in arranging a schedule to
fit the time necessary to the running
of through trains to Seattle. Most OF
this is caused by the single track ia
cilities prevailing in Oregon, which
required the taking off of the Cottage
Grove local to accommodate the new
train as we'll as the new 2Shour train
from Portland to San Francisco. When
the local was removed the Southern
Oregon people raised such a kick that
it was established by extending the
Albany locals run further south, and
now the Albany people are dissatisfied.
The traffic superintendent are work
ing overtime in the effort to provide
the suitable timetable.

In order that the council might con-
