RAILROAD BOYCOTT.
Now Taken Definite Shape the Santa Fe

The boycott of the Kansas City,
Pittsburg and Gulf railroad by the
other companies competing with
the gulf system in the southwest
ern territory took definite shape
today when the Atchison, Topeka
and Santa Fe and the Gulf. Colo
RADIO ard Santa Fe companies
served notice upon the Pitisburg
and Gulf that all their joint tar
ifs with the latter road had been
cancelled and that they would
cease exchanging business with the
Pittsburg and Gulf line.
The management of the boycott
ted road proposes to fight the boy
cotters in the federal court. Cen
eral Traffic Manager Hanley of the
Pittsburg and Gulf stated tonight
that the receivers of his road would
seek relief in the federal courts,
probably through injunction pro-
ceedings.
1t is announced that officials of
the Chicago Great Western have
assured officers of the Gulf road
that the Great Western will not be-
come a party to the boycott and the
boycotted road is thus assured of

they will not join the boycott.
