This Week.

New YORK, Sept. 25-It is not ex-
pected that Mr.. Stephen Little Will com
plete the examination OF the books of the
whole system Of the AlcaisOn, TOpeka i
Santa Fe railroad by October 1. He hopes
to have the Atchison proper finished by
that time, but he has not been able to
touch the St. Louis & San Francisco
Colorado Midland and Atlantic & Pac. tic
books, and will not start on them until
he is through with the Atchison proper.
Under these circumstances it will be
impossible for the Hayes reorganization
committee to prepare any plan until they
know the full status of their branch lines
as well as the AIchison proper 1t may
take from four to six weeks to finish the
work on the branch lines. AIr Robert
Moore, the expert engineer sent out by
the committee to inspect the road
bed and rolling stock, expects
TO return from his tour and make
his report the latter part OF this
month. After the committee receives
these different reports it will call its
members together and endeavOr to form
ulate a plan Of reorganization. Mr
Robert Fleming. the London representa-
tive of the committee. is expected by
October %.

Attorney General LittIe's Pass Ordered
Taken Up

Attorney General LittIe's Pass Ordered
Taken Up
Attorney General Little Is in more
trouble about his railroad passes
An order was this afternoon issued
from the Santa Fe general offices
ordering the annual pass over
the St Louis and San Francisco system
issued TO Attorney General John 7. Lit
tie, taken up.
This pass was used yesterday between
Wichita and Cherryvale. The con-
ductOr suspected that the hold
er of the pass not the
right man and reported the case to
perntendent BrittOn who in turn
wired the officials here telling them that
the pass holder was supposed to be
Judge G. T. Foote who is campaigning
for the Populist ticket in the southern
part of the state.
The railroad officials learned that Gen
eral Little was not in southern Kansas
yesterday and at once ordered the pass
taken up.
When asked about the matter this
afternoon General Little said: We'll, I
can't afford TO lie about it; Foote has
that pass. Foote wanted TO make a trip
down in that part of the state. and as it
is a pass l never use. 1 let him have it.
There is no use making a fuss about
little thing like that"

1t is Said to Be Reasonably
Assured,
A. A. Robinson Will Be Given

OF THE SANTA FE
Provided That He Will Consent
to Accept 1t.
Mr.. Robinson Talks With a
Journal" Reporter.
THE SANTA FE

"a. A Robinson is not here for his
health" said a Topeka gentleman who
knew what he was talking about today.
HE is on his way east to attend meet
ing of the reorganization committee Of
the Santa Fe system. While he is there
every thing viii be fixed up-a slate will
be made aud when the directors meet
here next month every thing Will be
harmonious and A. A Robinson will be
made president"
Mr.. A A Robinson, formerly general
manager of the Santa Fe, and now pres
ident of the Mexican Central railway. is
spending few days in his topeka home
STATE JOURNAL reporter who talked
with him asked about the letter made
public last week, which was purported
to have been written by him, in which
he was quoted as saying he would have
nothing to do with the Santa Fe system
until it is thoroughly washed and dried.
Mr.. Robinson looked amused as he re-
piled: tIhOse are about my sentiments"
''Is it true, Mr. Robinson, that you have
been offered the presidency Of the Santa
Fe system" queried the reporter.
Il am now connected with the Mexican
Central railway and one man can hardly
be expected to look after the interests. of
more than one great railroad system at
the same time"
you are now on your road to Boston
are YOU not?"
''Yes l am going east to be gone some
time and will leave Topeka within two or
three days for Boston. My present plans
are to be absent f-om Mexico about two
months. As you know our general man
ager Of the Mexican Central resigned
recently and Mr.. Nickerson is there to
take his place when he retires 1t is pos
