BELIEVED NE HAS 4 PLAN TO SUGGEST
No Indication Ofdcisiiy OF Any rn-

Matter settled.

Austin. Texas, December l2.-General
Attorney 7. S. Mtll,r OF the Missouri, Kan
sas and Texas is here today. He states
that he is not here on any particular mat
Ter.
The commissioners claim TO know noth-
ing OF compromise between them and
the railroads as suggested in the published
interview today with President Ripley OF
the Santa Fe.
Judge Stcdman OF the international and
Great Northern today made an appointment
by wire to appear before the commission.
His telegram did not state what his bust
ness will be and the commissioners
claimed not 10 know; but It is suriniscd
that his visit may be in the nature OF an
ATTEMPT TO close some kind OF cons
promise with the commission.
The interview referred to appeared IN
the San Antonio Express and was as fol-

Galveston, Texas. December u.--Mr.
e. p. Ripley, president Of the Santa
Fe system. this evening indicatei that
there Is a probability If the differences
between Texas railways and the Texas
railroad commission with respect TO
rates, being settled independent OF the
inJuncton proceedings,
When MIR. Ripley was here n little
over - year ago, ne had something 10
say about the Texas railroad commits
sion decreasing the revenue OF the rail
Mads. The reporter reminded him DC
the interview and asked him Ii he did
not think the subject again pertinent
Il don't like this thing--the differ
encas between the railroads and the
commission" said Mr.. Ripley. Il be-
leve the commission Will find that tho
railroads are disposed TO do the fair
thing. and | hone that We shall be able
to got along amicably together"
There Is not much prospect of that
being realized early?' dueried the re-
porter.
II don't know about that" Mr.. Rip
ley replied, II hope that we may get
toRether.'
THAT will be after the fniunctipn
suit is DISPOSED OF. wfll it not? That
will TAX. about two years
1T may be possible to settle the mat
ter earlier IL the interested parties will
get together. | understand that they
Will 20 TO work on the matter right
away. and there may BIO an amicablo
adjustment"
Mr.. Ripley would not indicate the
lines upon which 1t is proposed to bring
about this adjustment.
