ord-A Large Arrival on the
Sunset Limited

The Randsburg Railway company has
issued in connection with the Southern
Pacific and Santa Fe joint freight tar
if to govern shipments to places reached
by the new line, both from this city and
San Francisco by way of Kramer OF
Mojave. Shipments, as a rule, are by
this agreement governed by the western
freight classification, with the following
exceptions: Coal and coke have a COM
modify rate of 50A cents per 100 pounds
in carload lots; flour, corn meal, hominy,
grts, oat meal, rolled oats and rolled
rye in carloads, CO cents per 100 pounds;
grain and feed in carloads, AZ cents; hay
in carloads, 81 cents per 100 pounds;
lumber in carloads, 431s cents per 100
pounds; crude oil in carload lots, 62 cents
per 100 pounds.
The line will be formally turned over
by the builders to the construction COM
pany on Monday, but it is doing regu-
lar freight and passenger business as
it is.
NEW SANTA FEE SHOPS
The prosperity that has struck the
Santa Fe company Is being used at once
to put the property of the corporation in
the condition that it should be in, to be
used to the best advantage. A notable
case of this policy of Improvement is
seen in the announcement that the COM
pany will at once erect very large addi-
tions to their shops at San Bernardino
a shipment of fifty-nine cars being now
on the way here with material for one
of the new car buildings and repair
shops which will be the largest and most
complete on the coast. A new boiler
making plant will also be built and the
present blacksmith and boiler shop will
be put under the one roof
