quently appointed superintendent of the

The TRIBUNE is in receipt of letter
from General Manager Shelby Of the
Montana Central railroad in which he
has fully investigated the statement con-
tanned in the Glasgow Herald to the eff
feet that passenger en- the M. G. r. r.,

rication. This is the opinion given by
the TRIBUNE at the time.
