ENDS HIS CAREER.
Reinhart Will Cease to
Railroad.
Plight of the Santa Fe's
EX-PreSident.

The Indictment of j. H. Reiuhart, ex-
president of the Santa Fe system. along
with Nelson Morris and other prominent
business men on charges of violations of
the interstate commerce law, was the
theme of discussion in railroad circles yes
Ierday.
A prominent railway official in speaking
of the matter said that il was no surprise
to him. He declared that Mr.. Reinhart
was tricky and could not be GeDended
upon in railroad matters. 81 do not mean
to say that be is dishonest in money mat
ters," said be, ''but that he will not keep
railway agreements, and therefore his in
dictnent is no surprise to me. He has
ruined himself as railway man, and you
will never hear Of his occupying promi-
nent place in railway affairs again. His
selection as president of the Santa Fe svs-
lem was an accident. His management
was not successful. Contrary 10 general
opinion Mr.. Reinhart is not wealthy
man. He seems TO have no conception nf
the value OF money and has always spent
it like water His management or Santa
Fe interests was dismal failure"
