THE RAILROADS.
The Cotton Belt and Texas and Pacific
Have a Tilt.
The Former Attempts 10 Get Its Passenger
Train TO the Union Depot-ir. Win
field Arrested and Discharged.

When the East bound Cotton Belt
train eft here Monday night. it received
permission from the Santa Fe to back
into the union depot over the latter 8
racks, and pick up few passengers
which had arrived by connecting lines.
The Texas and Pacific ascertsined
what was to happen, and made big
disturbance about it. The Texas and
Pacific owns the union depot and rents
II TO the other roads that use it. The
lotion Belt, being a direct competitor
Of the Texas and Pacific, has been re-
fused the right to come into the depot,
and has been forced to maintain sep
arate station in the North part of the
city. During the holiday eXcur-
Iinns, while travel was heavy,
the Cotton Belt decided TO
use the Santa Fe's tracks and when the
passenger train headed down to the
depot Monday night il was III charge of
General Passenger Agent w. II. Win
field. The Texas and Pacific officials at
the depot promptly had Mr.. Winfield ar
rested for cressDass, claiming that the
Santa Fe, being leasee, had no right TO
give the Cotton Belt the use of its
tracks. The matter was debated with
considerable earnestness on both sides.
After the Cotton Belt obtained its
passengers, the train pulled out for this
west with Mr. Winfield on board. It Is
understood no complaint VIII be made
against him.
Speaking of the matter to GAZETTE
reporter Texas and Pacific official
said: 1.-The union depot ia the property
of the Texas and Pacific railroad COM
panv, and II leases the privilege 10 the
Santa Fe and all other roads save the
Cotton Belt. TO use it. The Santa Fe
has no right 10 sub-leaSe that privilege.
When il was learned that the Cotton
Belt had gained permission from the
Santa Fe TO back its train into the de-
pot Monday night the Texas and Pacific
very naturally took exceptions TO what
we consider an injustice. As TO the
arrest of Mr.. Winfield, it was merely
done in the excitement of the moment
and amounts to nothing.
The Cotton Belt people declare that
they were acting in good faith, and sup
posed the SANTA Fe had the right TO al
low whom it wished 10 use its own
tracks.
1t is the belief among railroad men
that the Cotton Belt VIII receive orders
in a few days t. use the union depot, and
thnt these orders will come from Mr..
Gould.
