NEW STREET RAILWAY
SERVICE is STARTED

The Ottumwa Railway & Light Co.
started It's new system Of cross town
service today. AS a result some Of the
patrons Of the line waited a little longer
than usual for their regular car at GER
tain times during the day in the east
and west end where ten minute
schedule has been in vogue. The fifteen
minute schedule was only during the
slack hours as the rush periods have a
ten minute service. The cars run
through from east to west ends of the
city without transfer. The unusual
sight Of cars coming down Main street
from the west end caused a number to
wonder, as heretofore service was run
only west on this street above Market.
The cars coming from the east turn
north on Green to Second street and
continue west to the end of the line.
Returning they leave Second street at
the car barns and following Main street
continue until the east end Of the line
is reached. The west loop car has been
abolished.
