CoLToN. CAL, April 22.-The run from
Indio to Cotton of the train conveying the
presidential party. was through beautiful
valley Astounding in picturesque scenery
At Banning the president was welcomed by
all the inhabitants including the Indian
children being educated there They all
bore bouquets of wild flowers and filed
nearly all the cars with them The presi-
dent and PoSrmaSter-G General Wanamaker
expressed their thanks in a few felicitous
remarks and the president afterwards shook
hands with all the children. The station
was decorated with flags. The presidential
party also received cordial reception at
Beaumont. The president shook hands
with several hundred people. The next
stop was at Cotton, where the president
was welcomed BY flags and an enthusiastic
crowd, nearly all of whom pressed
up TO the platform of the train and
shook hands with him. Public school
children with flags helped to swell the
tnrong. The president was introduced by
Governor Markham and made i short
patriotic address. Speeches were also
made by Rusk and Nanamaker. The MAYOR
of Los Angeles and committee of citi-
zens, including several ladies'. boarded the

with certificates for the return trip
General Passenger Agent Charlton mas
notified Chairman Finley that the Alton
will only agree-to such reduction of rates,
While the boycott against that road is i'll
effect, on condition that there shall he no
interchange of certificates between the
Eastern and Western lines, and that the re-
duction shall apply only to and from asso-
cation gatewayS, compelling the use of
certificates. Any other course. Charlton
SAYS, would not give his company
that equality in competition with
other lines IN the Western passenger asSo-
citation which the agreement intends it
should have. As the Eastern roads have
refused 10 exchange business with the
Alton he will vote in favor of the special
rates, provided the certificates Of the Cen
tral traffic and Trunk line asSociationssshall
not be honored by the Western lines and
the certificates of the Western passenger
association shall not be honored by
them Eastern connections. Chairman
Finley has called special meeting of the
association for Friday 10 consider the mat
ter, not being willing to decide it himself,
as 1t involves a suspension of one rule of
the association. The Western roads are
placed in u dilemma by this declaration
from the Alton. They must either lend
that company their aid by acceding to their
demands OF stand the consequences of a re-
duction of rates by the Alton from Kansas

THE GENERAL OFFICES.
Some Reasons Why the santa Fs should
Locate at Fort Worth.


The suggestion to make an effort to secure
the general offices of the Gulf. Colorado and
Santa F'e for Fort Worth in The GAZETTE
Of Yesterday morning has enlisted the
hearty sympathy Of ali the business men OF
the city. While it is not known whether
the company can be induced 10 change its
location, the old adage that If You want
anything YOU must ask for it" is being
acted upon. That Fort Worth is the natural
point for the location OF these offices is con-
ceded. Experience has shown that the
general offices are more satisfactory when
Located at or near the middle of the system
tndn al a terminal point. A case in point is
that of the Kansas City, St. Joseph and
Council Bluffs. The general Offices were
removed from St Joseph to Kansas City.
They remained al the latter point some
years. when the Burlington decided St.
Joseph WAS the proper place for them. and
there they are to this day. AT Calves
ton there is only one way out.
at Fort Worth eleven different
outlets. The system. in all its parts. is
more easily accessible from Fort Worth
whether it be south to Galveston or north
10 Purcell. That these offices will come TO
Fort Worth there is little reason to doubt,
fnr the interests OF the company demand it,
The Santa F'e officials will doubtless be re-
luctant 70 leave Galveston; their homes are
there. their friends are there and many of
their personal interests are there, but when
ii comes TO = matter Of dollars and cents.
friendships ceases The interests of the
great corporation are paramount to those of
the individual. There are several build
ingS under consideration which would make
admirable general offices. but if neither of
these are suitable a new building can
doubtless be secured. This is a question
which vitality interests Fort Worth. and
she should strike while the iron is hot.

CHARLTON On TOP.
He Blocks the Western Passenger Associa
ton Quite Effectively.

CHICAGO. Ill, April 22.-The Western
roads are confronted with fresh problem
almost every day as consequence of the
boycott against the Chicago and Alton. The
latest stage encountered in their efforts TO
keep intact the agreement of the Western
passenger association is a refusal on the
part OF the Alton to assent to the making
of special rates on certificates to future
meetings and conventions at points
in the territory of the Central traffic or
Trunk line associations. 1t is customary to
make tariff of fare and a third I0e

gathering of passengers to be furnished
