The new fast mall train on the North western line between Omaha and Chicago . Is proving to be of the greatest assistance ' to tho mall clerks employed orf No. 2, the Union Pacific train which connects with the ! Northwestern at this point. It Is also I making possible a reduction in the time of 1 transmission of mall between the west and I points In Indlona. Ohio and Kentucky. In I many cases the time thus saved amounts to twenty-four hours, and this Is done by ', getting the western mall Into Chicago two hours ahead of the time It arrived when it was carried on the regular mall and pas senger train. By catching the morning trains out of Chicago It has rolleved much work on tho Union Pacific mall trains between Omaha and Ogden and has made the reduced crews on some of those trains ample tor the work now to bo performed. When the morning trains out of Chicago reeelvo'the mall from the west their connections nre such that much of It does not havo to be worked so thoroughly as when it Is sent out from Chi cago on afternoon trains and tho connec tions In Indiana and Kentucky are such that the mall is handled by counties In greater proportion, reducing the work on th'o west ern routes In a large degree. With this change the eastbound Omaha nnd Ogden mall route are well equipped with clerks, but there Is a crying need for more men on the westbound trains. This Is especially true of trains Nos. 6 and 101. Clerks on these tralna say that for the proper handling of the mall two short-stop clerks are required, ono on each train. These clorks should run ns far west as Co lumbus at all times and under somo circum stances should run to Cheycnno. The new mall train put on by the North western between Omaha and Chicago was not Intended to break any records, but If tho Initial run Is an Indication of the time that will bo made In the future there will be something doing In the speed line. Tho train left Omaha on Its first run Sunday night two hours late, having waited for the Union Pacific mall train. During tho run to Chicago ono hour and thirty minutes of the tlmo was made up, the trip being made In nine hours and thlrty-flvo minutes.
