and broke according 16 the Burlington officials all fast records between the two cities The train left Council Bluffs an hour and late delayed by the of the Union Pacific connection froin the west It made the run to Chicago in less than schedule time The distance from Council Bluffs to Chicago by the Burlington road is 500.2 the train covered this Including stops which amounted to in 603 minutes The actual running time excluding stops The schedule shows fast bursts of larly toward the latter part of the run From Burlington to Chicago a distance of 206 miles the made in 213 minutes Including all stops Thirteen minutes required for stops and taking those out the showing is that tho actual time for the 206 miles was 200 minutes an considerable over a mile a minute The runs of the rival fast mail trains have been tho universal of con- versation railroad men It is the concensus of opinion that so far as trip is concerned neither road has any important advantage ami that the can be- materially reduced if it is necessary The engineers who trains assert that an hour can bo clipped from the present fast schedule and in the light of run of the Burlington train last night and the comparative ease with which both trains ithe run the boat posted operating men conr cede the engineers are correct On the Burlington the best time made from to Burlington where several stretches were
