Big Saving In Coal.

The New* York. New Haven & Hartford. which has taken off 199 passenger trains, is thereby saving, each week, 2.054 tons of coal, equal to an annual saving of 106.828 tons. As two tons of coal will warm a family of five persons a long, time, it is estimated that by reason of this economy of train service nearly 270,000 persons could be kept comfortable during the coming winter.
