New YORK, Aug. 27.--George j.
Gould is inclined to take q very lugubri-
GUS view of the situation in the South
west, and says the reason Texas and Pa
citic did not advance was because of cut
ting of rates and fear of some anti-rail-
road legislation as soon as the next
legislature meets in Texas. He re-
marked:
cit is not reassuring by any means.
The state of Texas, in the first place, is
dependent on but few things, and any
damage TO its cotton or other crops
means great loss to railroads. Rates are
so low now that 1t is really hard to say
what the outcome will be. -
