Extra fare charges between Douglas
and Phoenix and Bisbee Junction and
between Phoenix and Yuma on the
Golden State limited will be discon-
tinued after April is, w. w. Windham,
local Southern Pacific agent, an
nounced last night. Mr.. Windham was
requested by F. S. McGinnis, passenger
traffic manager for the company, to
make the announcement. The order
was issued at the general offices of
the company in San Francisco.
Considerable dissatisfaction has been
manifest in Douglas and other Arizona
points on the Southern Pacific system
because of the extra fare charges made
on the crack passenger train of the
system. The Goldens State will carry
passengers between alI stations where
it is scheduled to stop, Mr.. Windham
said. 1t is necessary, however, to pay
Pullman fare on the train, as it carries
Pullman cars only for passengers.
