TRAINS ON S. c. w. BY 18TH?
Schedule Will He Put In Operation
II Road Can BE Surfaced by That
Time.

A regular schedule of trains for
passengers will be put In operation on
the South Carolina Western on the
10TH, of this month II the surfacing
ot the road can be completed by that
time. However. as the weather and
the force of hands are two things
which cannot be depended upon, it
Is impossible to say whether this sche-
dale can be commenced then or will
have to be delayed until a week or
more later.
Mr.. w. A. Moncure, the chief en-
gineer Of the road, stated this morn
ing that there was still about eight
more miles to be surfaced and as soon
as this work was completed a regular
schedule of passenger trains would he
inaugurated on the new road. The
company has hoped to put the sche-
pule in operation by the 18th, but it
was probably that the work on the
road would not be completed by that
time. as 1t would take about two
weeks to surface the remaining eight
miles, and therefore the putting in
effect of the schedule could not be
counted on for that date.
Mr.. Mencure further stated that 1t
was probable that the schedule which
would be put on would be from here
to Hartsville in the morning, leaving
here about eight O'Clock, and direct
return to the city from Hartsville,
where connections would be made
with Darlington and Florence. A
like run from Sumter to Hartsville
and return would be put on in the
afternoon, thus insuring connections
between the two places twice a day
each way. and direct connections with
the north one way each day, front the
north In the morning and to the north
In the afternoon.
