For Purpose of Aiding Freight } Service and Saving Fuel 5.—Curtailment of | passenger traffic by the railroads con- | tinues the order of the day for the re- lief of freight congestion and the conservation of fuel and motive power. The New York, New Haven and Iartford Railroad company yesterday | announced that, beginning tomorrow, !it will discontinue seventy-seven trains from its through and local schedule. The more important of those elimi- nated are the Bay State Limited, | leaving Boston and New York on the Boston- leaving :30 p. m.; the State of Maine Fxpress, leaving New York dafly at 7:35 the Pittsfield press, leaving New York Saturdays at 12:45 p, m., and the Green Mountain Express, leaving Springfield at 6:55 p. m. and arriving at New York at 11:41 p. m. Herecafter the last named train will 'run only to New Haven. The sleeping car now operated on the Federal Kxpress between Boston and New York will be discontinued. Beginning next Monday smoking will be permitted in the three rear cars of the Merchants’ Limited, and in the two rear cars of the Knicker- bocker Limited. This will place all seats in the observation car on sale, instead of using the cars for smokers only. The Lehigh Valley railrcad an- nounces readjustment of its passen- ger service, which will reduce its con- sumption of coal by locomotives by 7,600 tons a month, and will reduce its monthly passenger milage 74,969 miles. The revised schedule will be offective beginning tomorrow. The Lehigh Valley will discontinue its sleeping car service to Chicago and Toronto in connection with the Grand Trunk Railway, and its Detroit-Chi- cago cars In connection with the Mich- igan Central. Parlor cars will be lim- ited to one to each train, except in the case of the Black Diamond Ex- press, on which there will be one car from New York and one from Phila- delphia. The most important trains discon- tinued by the Lehigh Valley are Nos. 2 and 3, night trains between New York and Buffalo; Nos. 12 and 15, night trains between Philadelphia and Buffalo; No. 32, the Wyoming Valley Bxpress, between Wilkesbarre and New York; Nos. 7 and 8, hereto- fore through trains between New York and Niagara Falls, will be dis- continued west of Wilkesbarre, and train No. 1, which has operated be- j tween New York and Wilkesbarre, ill run only to Mauch Chunk. This will leave the Lehigh Vajley with two daily trains, the westbound Black Diamond leaving New York dat 9 a. m. and arriving in Buffalo at $:15 p. m.; the eastbound Black Dia- mond leaving Bualo at 9: . m. and reaching New York at § . m.; the westhound Lehigh Limited, which will leave New York at 7 p. m. instead of 9 p.m., as at present, arriving in Buf- falo at'7 p. m., and the eastbound Le- high Limited leaving Buffalo at 8:15 p. m. and arriving in New York at 8 a. m. Schedules have been ar- ranged to enable passengers to make good connections with Western trains. Announcement was made by the Pennsylvania Railroad that on ac- count of ice conditions in Chesapeake Bay and Hampton Roads, it will, un- til further notice, discontinue passen- ger, mail and express service by w of the New York, Philadelphia and Jorfolk Railroad for points south of Cape Charles, Va. This will mean the cutting off of service to Old Point Comfort and Norfolk. CROWN PRINCE HAS NEW YEAR GREETING New York, Jan week da, | Pittsburg-st. Boston dails a.
