Address Railroad Reporter, state Journal
President E. p. Ripley of the Santa Fe
has so far in his career of economy prac-
ticed the plan of cutting off employees
and abolishing their positions altogether
when it was found that their services
were not absolutely necessary, thereby
introducing a policy new in Santa Fe af-
fairs.
The policy of the road in past years in
the matter of reductions under the va
rious presidents, has been in the nature
of a general cut in compliance with an
order issued by the chief executive to
the heads of the different departments
to reduce the force such per cent. The
last general reduction was made at the
time that Allan MARVEL assumed the
presidency. His order was to the effect
that the working force be reduced ten
per cent.
1t is possible, and highly probable,
that President Ripley, after abolishing
all positions which appear to be more
ornamental than necessary, will follow
the rule of his predecessors and order a
general reduction. This will be practic-
ing economy on stricter lines than ever
before.

MEND PAVEMENT WITH IT.
That's What Tight Be Done With the
Coal Hole Fund.
COUNCIL DISCUSSES THE FUND.

Either Dig a Hole with 1t or Return
Ii to 1he city Treasury-Other Mat
tiers.
After waiting several years the coun-
Gil last night took steps to either use the
antiquated coal hole fund or turn it back
into the treasury.
The matter came up in resolution in
troduced by Councilman Burgess last
night, directing the mayor to appoint
committee to investigate the state of the
fund and devise some means to expend it
in prospecting for coal, as originally in
tended.
''In my opinion" said Councilman
Burgess, something should be done with
that money. 1t was voted that it should
be used to dig for coal and there is no
reason why it should not be used for
that purpose. This committee should in
vestigate the matter to determine wheth-
er it is advisable to use the money in
prospecting for coal or not If not it
should be turned into the treasury with
the least possible delay. There is no
use in allowing the money to lay idle
any longer"
Councilman Bradford said that mis-
take was made before in digging for
coal. and that it should have been done
on some higher ground.
City Clerk McFadden said that there
is now about $4,000 in the coal hole
fund. OF that sum 81, 900 is held in trust
by P. G. Noel.
Mayor Fellows appointed the commit
of the matter. Councilman Burgess is
