THE RAILROADS.
The Southern Pacific Not Going to
San Diego.

The Southern Pacific Not Going to
San Diego.
The San Diego papers are printing
lot of stuff about the Southern Pacific
company building branch to that city.
1t is stated on the very best of author
such intention. Its relations with the
Santa Fe are such as to make such an
undertaking impossible, even if it was
desirable, which it is not.
The Santa Fe does not make enough
out of San Diego, according to it's stat
istics, to much more than pay operating
expenses. If the business was divided
by another line, it would not leave any
margin for either.
AS a Southern Pacific official said yes
build, equip and operate branch to
our line, and we would not take their
business or the road as present. 1t
would not be business.
