SEABOARD TO CUT
OFF NIGHT TRAINS
ON ALABAMA SIDE
SUCH PERMISSION is GRANTED
TRAINS Is AND II WILL RUN
ONLY TO THE RIVER

An account of diminished passenger
traffic, the Seaboard Air Line railway
has just been granted permission by
the Alabama railroad commission to
suspend the operation of passenger
trains No. 13 and IA between Mont
gomery and the Chattahoochee river
Both of these are night trains, one
leaving Montgomery ct 1880 p. m. and
the other arriving at $3.50 a. m. The
trains will be taken off in the next
few days, probably Sunday. -
Suspension of this service will leave
one passenger train a day each way on
the Seaboard between Montgomery and
Savannah. The commission acted up
on the appearance before that body OF
C. B. Ryan, general passenger agent OF
the Seaboard, with headquarters al
Norfolk ''.t-
Mr. Ryan explained that the Sea
board, owing to conditions, thought II
best to suspend the service. but be-
lieved it would be temporary. Like
practically all other southern railroads
the Searboard has had falling off In
traffic since the war began and it is
hoped that as quickly as normal condi
tons are restored, the trains will b.
put on again and even better servic,
given to the public than heretofore.
Train No. 10, which leaves Americas
at 2:4O o'clock a. m, will under thu
new regulation, stop at Omaha, in
stead of going on through to Mont
gomery. The change will no: 6ffec
TRAFFIC on this division and no objec
ton will be made thereto.

utterly impossible to predict the limit
of the war. Both sides are fighting a
battle of trenches, similar to that at
Sebastopol which it took years to cap
ture. The Germans will continue to
make terrific endeavors to break
through, but we can check them. We
have 100000 fresh troops ready not
far from the front, while there are
other new armies in the south. In the
long run Germany must give way
through starvation. The Anglo-French
blockade of Turkey further compli-
Gates the German food problem.

consensus of opinion of military men, !

Department, whose name carries

answer to the question is made by
Great Britain herself, who, notice, is
calling for 100000 more men as sol
diers. That means that Great Britain
and the other allies know that if even
they push Germany into her own terri
tory Germany will then only have be-
gun the long struggle against those
who mean to conquer her. Just now
there is scarcely any use to talk about
