TRAIN ORDERS
At HIGHLANDS
Central Notifies Trainmen TO
be More Explicit.
Special TO the FVENrNG NEWS.

Atlantic Highlands, June 12:-
Orders have been sent out from the
office of the superintendent of the
Southern division of the Central
railroad that in the future the
trainmen and conductors of all pas
senger trains bound for the Atlantic
Highlands pier of the Sandy Hook
route for New York should not only
use the expression Sandy Hook
route for New York" but should
also in every case announce at in
tervals with the other announce
ment at every station Boat train
for New York"
This order was prompted to be
made by the superintendent by the
constant complaints being sent to
his office that patrons of the road
were confused by the announce
ments and often missed the boat,
not understanding what the phrase
Sandy Hook route" meant. The
order was posted Monday and goes
into effect at once.
