Houston oGcrs Congratulations.

The many friends of A. A. Allen Ia
Houston were glad to learn through the
columns of The Post hat he had been ar-
pointed to the position of general manager
of the Missouri, Kansas and Texas in place
of t. c. Purdy, resigned. Mr.. Allen has
always ben a man who has looked out fol
tho interests of Houston, and at no time
has any request been made by Houston
citizens but that hs has always been read
and willing to show desire to comply with
every request While he has been assistant
general manager he has not been able to
do what he might desire, and now that he
has entire charge OF the road the people OF
Houston will feel no hesitancy in asking
what they want, feeling that their petition
will be granted

Injury to st. Loui. gateway.

The following is from the Globe Dem
ocrat: The appeal taken by the Pennsyl-
vania from tho ruling Of tho board Of man
ayers of the Joint Traffic association in
the matter of fares based on speed between
New York and st. Louis and New York
and Cincinnati was not argued before the
board OF arbitration in New York last
week. Tho Pennsylvania withdrew its APP
peal at the eleventh hour, but it was UNI
derstood that tho matter would be brought
up again shortly, and that other lines
would join In the appeal The ruling Will
not take effect at the time specified.
great deal of public interest has been
aroused by the order of the joint traffic
board, and the Missouri Pacfics general
PASSENGER agent, Colonel II. C. Townsend,
sent a very vigorous protest over the wires
10 the officials of the Eastern lines as
sembled in New York. calling attention 10
the fact that such ruling would seriously
injure the st. Louis gateway for passenger
travel.
Tho ruling OF the board OF managers
was that all trains from st. Louis to New
York consuming less than thirty three
hours time shall charge 81 per hour ad-
diuonal fare thus creating a wave of In
dignation among business men 1t is looked
upon rs n scheme of tho Chicago New
York lines to enhance Chicago as West
ern gateway as against st. Louis. 1t is
Understood that all the Western lines OPP
Grating through the st. Louis gateway are
protesting against such a mauifestly unfair
ruling on the part OF tho gentlemen who
look after the welfare of the Eastern trunk
lines and their allies west Of the Alleghen-
les. Under tho proposed ruling II would
