THE RAILROADS.
Western Roads Believed to be Prepar-
ing for Another Rate War.
Time for Fort Worth to Take Action in the
Albuquerque Matter-GraIn Movements.
General Railroad News and Notes.

The ninety days agreement to main
tain freight rates, which was entered
into and signed by the Western railroads
on July %, is near expiration, and
rumors are rife that at the expiration of
the period there will be general break
ing up or decentralization, and that
fl Greer ard more protracted rate war will
ensue than the one which was terminated
by the ninety-day truce. 1t is already
the case that several lines are charging
their competitors with reckless cutting of
rates, but it is believed these charges are
il part untrue, and are only made as an
excuse Tor the lines making them to
begin cutting rates themselves. For in
stance, 1t is charged that rates are being
manipulated from st. Louis to Kansas
City. The roads interested say that
while there is cutting in freight rates be-
tween st. Louis and Denver, there is no
evidence of manipulation to Kansas City.
There doesn't have to be. AS soon as
the truce has expired, unless. it is re-
newed, rates in the Western territory
will 20 to pieces.
The date of the expiration of the agree
ment is October % and II trouble comes
II will not be before that date.

both moth ana south, west of Fort Worth
in order to hold certain traffic. Since
then work has begun on the Pecos VAL
ley line running north from Pecos City
up the valley of that name. The Texas
and Pacific is not known in connection
with that road but it has mighty deep
interest in its construction. 4 move
ment is now on foot to build line of
road from san Angelo to Henrietta, an
other scheme the Texas and Pacific
would be greatly benefited by, and it is
believed that the road has hand in the
puddle. Thus il will be seen that two
things anyhow predicted by THE GA
ZETTE will mater.aliZe and the third is
the extension from Sierra Blanco to Ell
Paso. This too will materialize before
long.

TEXAS JOURNALISM.

Not content with painting the town
red over the city's good fortune in Sc
curing the appropriation, the Galveston
Tribune comes out in q double edition
printed in the hilarious crimson and
shouts "let us have another and O
grander. The Tribune is uotitoo full for
utterance by any means, but There are
prospects, fine prospects, for-deep
water.
The Bolton Reporter is letting out an
extra link. The issue of the oath con-
tanned ten large pages crowded full of
good reading. One of these pages was
monopoliZed by comprehensive write
up of Bolton. The Reporter did the
square thing that time.
The death of Editor Dodson deprived
the Rusk County News of Its manager,
but the paper will continue publication
under the management OF Mrs. Dodson.
There will be no changes.
The Rockwall County News will issue q
special edition about October 81. This
will be sixteen page paper containing
illustrations of Rockwell town and
county. Editor Stuart will load It up
with statistics and the resources and gen.
eral development OF the county. 1t will
be a splendid advertisement for the
county of Rockwell.
They neglected to send THE GAZETTE
the first two numbers of the Messenger,
did Messrs. Adair and Loughry, but the
third came. 1t is bright evening paper
and bears the thumb marks of an expert
enced hustler. There are none of the
usual faillngs of the messenger boy about
it, neither has it sprung into the arena
full grown, so We may expect develop
ments. But the Messenger is welcome
as il Is.

Donohue, well known in Texas railway
circles, having served in an Official ca
pacity with the Texas and Pacific rail-
road for number of years, left this city
several weeks ago on a prospecting
tour of Mexico. All trace of him
had been lost until to-day, when the
news reached here of q pitiable plight to
which he had been reduced ut TampIco.
He was bereft of reason there few days
ago, and was taken in charge by friends
who intended to bring him back to Texas.
Pending the start for home Donohue es-
capped his keepers and was found WONDER

gulf front. A Mexican policeman
attempted to arrest him. Donshue, by
a powerful blow, knocked the officer into

CHICAGO, ILL, Sept. .25.-The Evne-
ing Journal says the Santa Fe
officials finally admit their cor
poration has purchased the Colo
rado Midland railway, and will
also have control of the Rio Grande
western. President Marvel and Gem
eral Solicitor George r. Peck were
closeted in a room at the formers
residence all morning on Tuesday
last drawing up contracts and
other papers necessary to make final
transfers of these properties and take
them into the Atchison family.
While negotiations for the purchase
of the Rio Grande Western have
not been contaminated, and may
result in failure on the part of the
Santa Fe to secure direct ownership,
there is no doubt that the Santa Fe will +,
in connectin with the Midland, operate
under long time lease.
