Accommodation service is to be
established on the Quanah Acme

ah and Paducah, in the very near
future, according to Charles H.
Sommer, first vice president, who
was in Fort Worth yesterday en
Mffte from St. Louis, his head-
quarters, to Quanah.
This service will consist of
motor cars that will accommo-
date eighty-five passengers, and
to these will be attached trailers
for handling baggage and ex-
press.
The&e cars will stop at every
station and all sidings when
flagged, for the purpose of pick-
ing up passengers or express.
By this means the farmers will
be able to send Jth^ir fruit, truck,
milk, eggs "and whatever pro-
duct they wish, direct from their
