To Redeem Pullman Tickets As some jiarlor car and sleeping car tickets have been sold for trains which will be discontinued tomorrow, these tickets, it is announced, will be re deemed at the offices where issued. Tlie announcement of the curtailment of jiarlor car service followed more sweeping changes in the schedules of Pennsylvania tiaius running iu ami out of this cit nnd in what is termed the metropolitan Philadelphia area. Fifty-secn more trains were an nulled, according to this announcement, which was made last night. Most nf the annullnients weie of trains operating in South Jersey, nnd leaving the Market street ferry, in Camden. Altogether VV2 trains are cut from the schedules of the three railroads enter ing this city in an effort to save coal. Today a meeting of the legioual coal committee is being held and it is likely it will result in enforcement measures being provided for the observance of orders issued last night by National Fuel Administrator Carflelil, tending to conserve coal by restricting the use of commercial power and lighting.
