weak and lack the yigor and Robustness Of

SANTA FE CHANGES
Official Circular Being Prepared.
Contemplated Moves

The official circular announcing the
tion of the offices of the Santa Fe sys-
tenn is row being prepared, and will be
issued here by General Manager Nevin
before the end of the week. This circu-
lar will make public all of the changes
that are to be made, the most important
of which will be the bringing to this city
of the general superintendents Office
and the several other departments di-
rectly under the control of that official
If it is possible the new offices here will
be opened nsxt Wednesday, and from
that time Los Angeles will be the gen
eral headquarters of the entire western
part of the system. There has been con-
siderable secresy about the matter by
the officers here, and until the circular
is issued they will not make public the
names of the officials who will be effected
by the change. 1t is understood that
some of the office force here is to be
transferred to other points. The arrival
of the new officials now stationed at AL
buquerque will not cause any change in
the present administra ton of the busi-
ness of the Southern California railway
except that some of the departments now
here may be combined with and the
business done by the general offices
The headquarters Of the company in this
city will remain where they are, in the
Bradbury building After the change is
made nearly 1900 miles Of the Santa Fe
system will be controlled by the Los
Angeles office.
