FROM ALBANY TO PORTLAND Plan Is to Make Train Extra Section of Overland No. 12 Commis sion Intends Service Shall Be Made Permanent. SALEM, Or., July 8. (Special.) The Southern Pacific lias at .last taken steps which will insure for a time at least a regular passenger. train service between Albany and Portland every afternoon. An extra train will be run up the Valley from Portland every morning as the first section of the morning overland, and the same train will be - run back to Portland as the first section of the afternoon overland. This train will not carry mail, but by carrying passen gers, baggage and express it will very greatly relieve the overland, No. 12, and aid that train In keeping near er its schedule. In the past two weeks the amount of fresh fruit car ried on north-bound passenger trains has been enormous, necessitating long stops at several stations between Al bany and Portland. Yesterday the train took on 600 bushels of cherries here at Salem, besides quantities of berries. To load this fruit required a stop of over 30 minutes. .How long the Southern Pacific will keep, the extra train on the run is not known. The heavy shipments of fruit will continue . but a week or two longer. Notwithstanding this action on the rart of the Southern Pacific the State Railroad Commission is going ahead with its proceeding with a view to ordering a regular afternoon train service through the Willamette Val ley. The Commission today Issued a notice, setting forth tho facts regard ing poor service and setting July 22 as the time for a hearing. The hear ing will be held here In Salem. If the company should show at this hearing that it intends to run this extra train on the schedule time of Nov 12, the arrangement may be satisfactory to the Commission, though It Is likely that the Commission will make an order regarding the train, whatever the promises may be. Past promises have been so poorly kept that the Com mission is not likely to rely upon them. The Railroad Commission was pleased to learn today that the South ern Pacific has employed on its lines in Oregon a special inspector of serv ice, whose duty Jt will be to travel from one part of the system to another, watching the movements of trains, the management of ticket offices, the service given by trainmen and the care that la taken to keep trains on time. The work of this agent is to keep the manager of the road informed as to the character of service the dif ferent departments are giving. The agent Is not a detective or spy em ployed to catch other employes nap ping, but It is his duty rather to look after the service generally, suggesting better plans of organization and point ing out weak places in the system that should be remedied.
