SAN mARoIAL HIT HARD.
Santa Fe AboIishes Shops There and
Moves Material to Albuquerque

The rumor that San Marcial would
lose the railway shops, received the Of
fiicial approval of the Santa Fe man
agement last Thursday, and before the
day was over the work of shipping ma
terial to Albuquerque was under way
says the San MarciaI Bee.
A few of the employees are already
on the retired list, and from now on
until the last of October, the force will
be cut till only thirty-seven men out of
the total 126 will be left to tell the tale
of San MarciaIs past glory and future
gloomy prospects. Six coal cars, one
cabOOse and three engines now on hand
will receive the necessary repairs and
then the order of dismissal will be in
full force, and only sufficient number
of mechanics will remain to attend to
emergency repairs.
The work that has been carried on
here will in future be done at the Albu-
ouerdue shops and a few of the dis
charged men may find employment
there; but no pledge of this character
has been given, so that the eighty-nine
discharged men will have to spread out
and seek new jobs
This misfortune to San Marcial is bad
enough in itself, but the sure thing
story of what is to fOlIow-the transfer
of the divisional headquarter to RincOn
will give the finishing touches to the
town as a commercial center of any i'm
pOrtance.
At first glance it looks as if the town
has been harshly treated by the rail-
road company, particularly as the blow
fell almost without warning; but SEN
sible person will admit the right of the
Santa, Fe people to manage their busi-
ness in their own way, and see in this
movement only the carrying out of q
policy of concentration that is being
followed by all the big railway concerns
in the country.
Many of the hard-working and indus
triOus mechanics let out own their
homes here, and a few of them have
payments falling due thereon. These
people will be the greatest sufferers by
the change, for property will neither
sell nor rent. The business men fully
realize the position in which they find
themselves and some have already
countermanded large eastern orders for
goods.
From any standpoint in which the
situation is viewed, no bright lining can
be observed in the dark cloud; but be-
fore the dawning of the new year, the
situation will be fully understood by
many, and plans laid to hug the ad-
vanta ges of other towns, whose future
does not entirely depend upon the fiuc-
tuating plans of railway corporations.

RATES RESTORED.
New Schedule For Missouri Points
Goes Into Effect Sunday.

Omaha, Neb., Oct. 12.-Water and rail
rates from New York and other coast
points to this part of the country will
be restored to the old basis on October
Is, which means that the Missouri river
points lose their prestige as distributing
points for the Northwest, and St. Louis
and Chicago get it back.
Several months ago when the all-rail
rates were $1.47 per 100 on first-class
freight and sea-and-ral rates $1.37 on
the same class, other classes being pro-
portionately lower. the Port Arthur
Route wanted IL cents more differential
and the other gulf roads followed close
W. which mean that Omaha got the re-
duction through the Missouri Pacific.
The cutting kept on until for several
months the sea-and-rail rates have been
so cents although the all-rau rates re-
mained at S1.47. But now the sea and
alI-raiI rates go back to S1.S7, and the
Missouri river again becomes the bas-
ing point,

OLD CARS REsURRECTED.
Union Pacific Compelled to Put An
cient Equipment In Use.

Laramie, Wyo., Oct. 12.-About a year
ago, when the Union Pacific company
purchased several hundred new box
stock and coal cars, about a thousand
old cars, of small capacity, were stored
on the soda lake tracks. The company
thought it would never have any fur
ther use for the old cars and orders
were given to brake them up. For
some unknown reason the work of de-
strOying the cars was delayed and a
few days ago the officers of the Union
Pacific, being hard pressed for cars to
handle the immense traffic of the road
gave orders to haul the old cars to this
place, have them repaired, inspected
and placed in service.
The old small capacity stock cars
have been fitted up for shipping sugar
beets in Nebraska from the farm to the
factory. This was done by cutting out
part of the sides, making a place
through which the cars can be loaded
and unlOaded- Then lot of the old
cars were placed in the coal trade,
