CUM MING COMING.
The New Superintendent of the
Wyoming Division.
A Competent Railway Man of
Large Experience.
Short Sketch of the Successor of
Mr.. C. E. WurteIe.

1t is officially announced that Geo. NJ.
Cumming, general manager OF the St. Joe
q Grand Island railway, is to succeed G.
e. Wurtele as superintendent Of the
Wyoming division of the Union Pacific,
with headquarters in Cheyenne.
Several residents of the Magic City are
well acquainted with the appointee and
are unanimous in the assurance hat he
will develop to be all that patrons Of the
company and citizens generally could de-
sire.
Mr.. Cumming is less than IS years of
age. a thorough gentleman and a most
capable railway man of large experience.
He has an interesting family and alto
gether will be a most acceptable citizen.
The new superintendent was born in
Pottsville, Pa, where his father is still a
leading attorney. His railway life com-
menced on the Northern Pacific, which
he left several years ago to attach
himself to the Overland Route.
While occupying a subordinate position
~ Omana tnere came n call from
the Office Of President Adams for a west
ern man to assist in preparing the Off
Gals annual report. Cumming was as
signed the talk, and rendered such mate
rial aid that he became a favorite with
the president. He was soon promoted to
the management of the land department,
where he displayed shrewd business quail
ifications and executive ability of a high
order. Then there came a demand for a
man to assist General Manager Galloway.
Cumming was selected from a host of APP
plicants, and gave entire satisfaction.
During the interval between the r~esigna-
ton of Galloway and the assumption of
control by the hamented Potter, Mr.. Cum
ming managed the entire system from the
Office at Omaha.
Mr.. Wurtele, the retiring supcrintend-
ent, Ex-Governor Warren and several
prominent citizens speak in glowing terms
of the man who is to manage the Wyo-
ming division.
