A large shipment of angle bars passed through Wichita yesterday enroute for the North Fork of Red river. The train consisted of baggage cars loaded with angle bars and was drawn by three engines.

General Manager E. Dickinson of the Orient is at the scene personally superintending the work. The Orient railway to-day announced a passenger train schedule through to Altus, Oklahoma. The tram will leave Wichita at 8:50 a. arriving at Altus at 10:15 p.
