That definite plan for the improve ment of connection at Marcopa will be submitted to the corporation commis- sion by officials of both railroads within the next ten days. was the announce ment made at the close of the investi- gation Of train service at the junction by the commission yesterday.
 In order to eliminate the possibility of a repetition of those conditions which made it necessary for a number of passengers bound for Phoenix to wait all night at Maricopa, officials of the Southern Pacific and Arizona East ern agreed to make some arrangement whereby connections would be govern ed. Either Arizona Eastern trains will be held indefinitely to connect with be- lated main lire trains or until a certain hour after midnight thus doing away with the chances fer Init and miss connections at which the complaint was aimed
 The investigation was held at the complaint of the passengers, who were represented by Secretary Harry Welch of the chamber of commerce Superin tendent C. M Scott and Attorney J. C. Forrest appeared for the Arizona East ern, and F. C. Hallmark and Assistant Superintendent kruitschnitt for the Southern Pacific.
