TROOPS WILL NOT HAVE
TO CHANGE CARS

New York, June 27.-Owing to the
large number of passenger cars re-
quired for the transportation of troops
to the Mexican border, the Pennsyl'
vania railroad announced here tonight
that it would be forced within few
days to withdraw many cars in the
regular service in order that troops
moving from the various parts of the
country may reach the border in as
fresh condition as possible, and with.
out delay, it will not be necessary for
them to change cars. This will neces
state sending many cars off their own
lines, in some cases many thousands
of miles,
