The train consists of baggage car and smoker through to Kansas City , one chair car to Kansas City and another via St. Joseph to Leavenworth , one sleeper for Kansas City.one for St. Joseph and Leavenworth and one via Hannibal and the Missouri , Kansas & Texas railroad for Texas , and a dining car. The train is new through out and presents several new features in equipment and in construction. The platform on the baggage cars has been entirely dispensed with and the extra length so gained will be used for the storage of baggage. The vestibules of the cars , both sleepers and coaches , are of a new pattern and more space is given to them than has been the custom here tofore. All the cars were made especially for this train and will .not be used in any other service. The running time of the new limited train will not be faster than the trains which the Burlington has run between Chicago and Kansas City , but the train is finer than any the road has sent out of Chicago before. The par ty which accompanied this train was brought back from Mendota on a special train which broke all existing records for fast time. The distance from Men- 1 dota to Western avenue , seventy-nine * miles , was made in 7gminutes , including one dead stop , a slow up through Aurora and again over a mile and a half of new grading. At one place 4 3 miles were made in three minutes. 1 | - n mm 1 11 m m m mmm - - It is reported that the Burlington railway - ' way will soon commence work on its long projectel extention to the Pacific coast The road , it is said , is not to extend from the Billings terminus of the Burlington , but to be built westward from a point south of Sheridan , passing near the head waters of the Little Powder river , skirt ing the southern line of Yellowstone park , thence in a tolerably direct line to Boise.
