] The last rails connecting the A. & ] C. railroad with the main line of the 1 Santa Fe wifi be laid today pr tomor- ! row. completing the long prayed for | construction project of connecting | Phoenix with the coast by a direct ! through line. IL will take d few days to adjust matters for train service, so ! it is not expected that the road will be : opened for traffic until about June 1. That. however. is the original time set when construction began west of the Colorado river. so that the company has l completed the work, if anything. just a little ahead of time.
 The schedule for train service has been practically decided upon by Gen eral Freight and Passenger Agent P. P Hastings and General Manager Drake who have been in Los Angeles for seV eral days. conferring with Santa Fe coast line officials, for the A. & C. schedule necessitatcs very close co-op eration with the main line in order that good service may be given from the California junction points to Los Ang- eles. Incidentally. the necessary ar engagements of the A. X C. train service disturbs the present schedule on the $. F., r. & P. so it has been found best to revise that service very ma teriaIly also and incidentally in many points for its betterment.
 In the schedule given below it will he noted that the time of some of the trains is materially altered, though there will still be two day trains and two night trains the day trains contin- uing to carry the cafe observation cars and the night trains carrying through Pullman cars between Phoenix and Winslow on the main line. Western through traffic. of course, needs no main line connections at Ash Fork, as it will naturally go over the A. & C., which will carry through Pullman ser vice between Phoenix and Los Angeles. The service between Phoenix and Los Angeles will be cut to sixteen hours, and the provision is made for one meal en route. whichever way the passenger travels. If westbound. he leaves Phoe- nix in the evening and eats breakfast in San Bernardino; if eastbound. he leaves Los Angeles in the afternoon. takes supper in Barstow and arrives in Phoenix for breakfast. The Santa Fe A revised schedule on the :. F., P X P. arranged for Phoenix the best service yet afforded the travelling public The schedule printed below is approximate ly the one that will become effective as soon as the opening of the A. & C. for business is announced. Most Of the times given are accurate and the others will have variation of only few minutes from the outline nere pre- scented.
 It is announced also that the freight schedule on the A. X C. will call for a forty eight-hour service between Phoenix and Los Angeles.
