Office of the Los Angeles Cable Company
yesterday:

1t was the last official notice of Col.
Robinson, who retired from the manage
ment of the road, which he took at
very trying time and carried to such
successful issue that Los Angeles today
has one of the best running roads in
existence.
1t was suspected when the Los
Angeles Gable Company was merged
into the Pacific Railway Company that
there would be change in the manage
ment, but no definite statement was
made by either Colonel Robinson or Mr..
Crank. On the same day that the
change OF name took place, however,
Colonel Robinson addressed the follow
ing letter of resignation to the directors
of the Los Angeles Gable COMPANY:

ganization of the system of cable rail
roads in this city having been duly com
pleted and now formally transferred to
