Show i j Huston YanU to Come arrr. It is gratifying to observe that the ; business men of Iloston aro di-iposed to . make an active effort to secure quicker : time by rail between, this city and Xew I York. The members of tho Kxecntivo j R'.siness association have discussed he ; question, and bavocomo to tbe very sen-I sen-I fciblo conclusion that the public interests of the city demand a better service, ami that such a service can be secured "without prejudice to the interests of flio railroads connectin.tr the two cities." No one who has studied tho rendition involved, and who knows of how much tho modern railway is capable, will doubt this. A new lino would probably not bn a profitable enterprise, but it is within tho power of tho existing lines to reduce ( tho time of the journey by exp-ess trains j from six hours to five, and there is no sufficient reason for delaying to do so.
