NEW SERVICE TO BE
 BEGUN ON JULY


 w. A. Drake, general manager of the $. F., P. X P. railroad and asso- ciated lines, spent Tuesday in Phoe- nix. MT. Drake says the train ser vice on the A. & c. railroad will be- gin at ? p. m. on July 1st. The equipment will then be in full readi- ness, and will be of the best. The dusty spots along the right of way will be oiled, and it is expected the service will be a good one from the very beginning. There will be one train a day each way, which will be later described. with added equip ment available if the traffic demands it, says the Phoenix Republican.
 In preparing the schedule, the pres ent schedule of the s. IT,, P. & P. will be considerably changed for several trains. The effect will be to shorten the time between Phoenix and Chicago by about twelve hours. That is, one can start from here in the evening and get to Chicago about the same time ne would now arrive by leaving Phoenix in the morning, thus saving a working day in Phoe- nix for the busy business man. From Chicago to Phoenix the saving in travel time is about the same, bur is less important, as the saving is night instead of a day.
 The first train on the A. & c. will leave Los Angeles on and after July l, at p. m., arriving in Phoenix at 1O:3O o'clock the following morn ing. The opposite train will leave Phoenix for the first time at 6:3O o'clock on the evening of July l., arriving in Los Angeles the follow ing morning at 8 o'clock.
 These trains will consist of al standard, twelve-sectiOn, single draw ing room Pullman, electrically light ed, vestibule, dust proof top and bot tom, and well ventilated; seventy foot chair ear, electrically lighted; combination smoker and baggage ear, and combination express and bag gage or mail ear. As mentioned, there is more equipment available if it is needed.
 The new schedule on the S. F., P. & P. will include the following pas senger trains:
 Leaving Phoenix at $50 p. m. and arriving at Ash Fork at a. m., making close connections with three overland trains, the Diamond Jo will carry a standard sleeper through to Winslow, where passengers may transfer to the overland trains at breakfast time. This train carries the mail.
 The train running opposite will be regarded as the southbound day train. leaving Ash Fork at p. m., having made close connections with three overland trains from the east. This train will carry no sleeper, but will have in place of it the cafe parlOr car. on which meals will be served at any hour during the trip. The train will arrive here at 1925 ?. m.
 The day train leaving Phoenix will depart at s a. m., nicely providing for all local northbOund passengers, particularly to Iron Springs, making close connection with overland train No. 10 eastbound; also connecting by a six hours wait at the Esea- lante hotel in Ash Fork, with the Santa Fe westbound Limited, No 2, for Los Angeles and San Fran cisco
 The train running opposite this will be the southbound Diamond Jo, leaving Ash Fork at l a. m. This will connect with the Santa Fe Linn tied from the east and will carry the sleeper which doubles back from Winslow. The train will arrive in Phoenix at 9 a. m., in time for a late breakfast. This train may carry pouch mail, but the train leaving Ash Fork at ?. m., will bring the major part of the Santa Fe mail, and carry the postal ear.
 All these trains will be steam heated by the vapor system, the latest, best and safest railroad equip ment. There will be no fire on the trains at all except in the cook stove in the buffet ears on two of them. TO JOURNEY To
