POSTAL CAR ON NO. u
Special Service lnaugurated by the

Car on No. 12 Gives
Desired Relief.

Postmaster S. w. Moorhead has re-
ceived from E. L. West, superintend-
ent of the Sixth district of the Rail
way Mail Service, a letter with ref
erence to mail service for Keokuk
which will, he hopes, prevent further
complaints to delays of mail for, this
place. When the Rock Island train is
more than an hour late the Burlington
has been running a special to get the
mail from the east and west to this
city in time for the commercial at
stention to the Keokuk business
houses, but the north mail did not
come on No. IL as there was no pos
tai car provided. The north mail has
been arriving on the train that
reaches Keokuk about 1:15. which is
too late to receive commercial atten-
ton. The plan Mr. West is providing
is to put a postal car on No. IL and
get the mail to Keokuk at the earliest
possible time. Mr.. West in a letter
to Mr.. John Dewitt and others, says:
in connection with our converse
ton in this Office on Friday. Deem
Der 81, it is my understanding that
your operating officials will arrange
to run a train from Burlington to
Keoluk, Iowa, to take mails properly
made up by Chicago and Council

Keokuk, provided Minneapolis & Bur-
lington train % is reported one hour
late arriving at Burlington.
With this understanding will ar
range with Chief Clerk Coates to have
mails for the city of Keokuk made up,
both in letters and papers, to be put
off at Burlington from Chicago and
Council Bluffs train Z to go forward
in this special train from Burlington
when Rock Island train % is more
than one hour late.
1T is further understood that the
postal car in your Burlington & ST..
Louis train No. IL will be held for the
second section of No. II under these
conditions so it may receive mails
from Minneapolis and Burlington
train %.
Il will hold the departments files
in this case until I hear from you stat
ing that this arrangement is salts
