 A. J. Borie, Train Master of the Western Division from Williams, re- signed his position some time since, but he will have to wait until MT. Hardy's successor IS appointed. We hear the name of Conductor OSgood mentioned as Mir. Borie's successor. Mir. ]. s. Cooper, Train Dispatcher from Winslow to The Needles has rendered his resignation. MT. Coop is an old empIoye of the road, and as his resignation has not yet been ac cepled, we hope he may yet be in, duced to remain.
