Superintendent Bailey of tho Ogden Rapid Transit company, states that the recent changes in tho schedules of the Twenty-fifth street and Twenty-second Twenty-second street cars have given rise to erroneous ideas concerning the convenience con-venience or inconvenience visited upon the traveling public.

It Is true that the "Washington avenue car docs not meet the Twenty-fifth Twenty-fifth street car at the Broom corner, but fur the accommodation of Just these people in question, the Twenty-second Twenty-second street car remains on its old schedule in relation to the down coming com-ing car, only that It paeses the latter in front of the Broom hotel and moves around onto Washington avenue directly direct-ly afterward, Instead of before it as 1 formerly.
