trio motor was given a trial trip

A Change In Railway Matters.

Cry OF Mexico, September L.
The general managership of tho Mex
lean Central railway was transferred
to-day by Manager Robinson 10 Ed
ward W. jackson, until recently gen
eral superintendent of the Vera
Cruz railway. Mr.. jackson started
over the entire line TO the Texas bor-
der, accompanied by the retiring man
ager and the principal officials OF the
Mexican Central railway. The retir-
ing manager said that the rolling
stock of the road was In excellent
condition also that the rails were
good for many years, but that heavy
expenditures for ties would be re-
CURED for the next two years and
half, as the ties on the northern di-
vision having all been laid about the
same time would require replace
ment almost simultaneously. a
careful outstanding of the compauy's
resources, he said, would be necessa-
ry TO keep the operating expenses
down TO reasonable percentage.
Ties IN Mexico decay rapidly aud for
this reason the Vera Cruz road is sub
stituting, at a great expense, steel ties
on portions OF its track. Wooded ties
cost 81 each and replacing ties OH n
long stretch of road built at the rate
of one mile day must necessarily
mount up. The wooden bridges on the
Northern division will soon demand
replacement by new structures and
this work will be imperative. Gen.
eral Manager Jackson not yet having
carefully Inspected the road, is not
prepared to give an opinion. lie APP
prehends difficulty from the .tmnpcr-
Ing with railway operations by the
custom house absurdities in the way
of second inspection of freight at
Villa Lardo. This will cause delay in
transit and occasion loss and damage.
lie hopes, however, that the govern
mcnt will be persuaded that all such
laws are All obstruction to Legitimate
business and productive of NO good
