denying that he is seeking to disrupt the

a thing has entered his mind, but it
would not be policy for him to do so.
Referring to the fact hat the Santa Fe

rivals of his, Gould is quoted as saying:
1t is all bosh. Neither one Of these
roads can make a move without consult
ing me-"
President Gable said the announcement
thai Gould had considered a proposition
to disrupt the Western Traffic Association
would surprise nobody in the railroad
world. Neither would any one question
the reason which he assigned for refrain
ing from 1t. Nobody questions his
courage" added President Gable. in

sumo, however, that the managing
officers of other railroads dare not make
a move without consulting him. especially
as his attorneys are now defending suits

Omaha bridge contract
