Monoh to Use Wagner Cars.
The Pullman company has run its cars on the Monon for a good many years; in fact, about ever since the road has used sleepers. The contract between the two corporations expired a few weeks ago, and the Monon asked for concessions, which it is claimed were made to other roads. This was refused, and General Manager McDoel made a contract with the Wagnercompany, and February 10 the Pullman cars will be taken off the road and replaced by Wagners. It is the intention, the management says, to have the finest cars thut the Wagners make in use. As soon as the contract with the Cincinnati, Hamilton & Daytons, the Monon’s Cincinnati connection expires, it understood that the Wagner cars will be put on that road also.
