RAILROAD CONSOLIDATION.
The Santa Fe Railroad Will Absorb An
Arizona Line.

The Santa Fe railroad is about to add
to its main line the Santa Fe, Prescott
& Phoenix railroad, connecting Phoenix
and Ash Fork on the Santa Fe-Paciflc,
a distance of more than 200 miles. The
transfer is to take place in three
months. Norton B. Ream and N. K.
Fairbank, Of Chicago, and Simon j.
Murphy. of Detroit, who hold major
ity Of the bonds Of the Santa Fe, Pres
colt & Phoenix, were notified by the
Santa Fe last month that that company
will foreclose its option on the bonds
and take possession at once.
When the Santa Fe was in the hands
of receiver during the panic Of 1893 1t
was unable to render much financial as
sistance toward the construction Of the
line between Phoenix and Ash Fork,
but to avoid delay in the construction
it indorsed the bonds by taking an op'
ton on them. Under its terms the COM
pany was privileged to take UP the
bonds at the expiration of five years.
The road has now been operating lit
tie more than five years.

Boston, April 13.-The American Wool
and Cotton Reporter will say to-day:
There has been more looking around
for wool on the part of manufacturers,
several of whom are evidently getting
ready to buy some stock. and there is
on the whole better tone to the mar
ket. The volume of business actually
transacted Is still very moderate, for the
reason that in a number of instances
holders of wool are unwilling to meet
the views of consumers. While the wool
market cannot as yet be quoted as ac-
tually higher the downward tendency
which previously characterized it seems
to have been arrested for the time be-
ing at any rate, and comparatively
firm feeling prevails. Advices from the
interior indicate very firm feeling, and
the ideas Of holders of wool are in many
instances above the level of the sea-
board markets.

BOTH SIDES ENCOURAGED.
The Strike On the Southern Railway Not a
Success.

Atlanta, Ga, April 13.-Both sides en-
gagged in the strike of the telegraphers
of the Southern railway consider the
situation encouraging. Trains are ar
irving here one to five hours late. Off,
cial information from Assistant Gener-
al Superintendent Thompson at noon
was to the effect that all trains are
moving on time, and that there is no
congestion of traffic.
ORDERS NOT OBEYED.
Birmingham, Ala, April 1S.-The
Southern railway officials say that the
strike order of President Powell, of the
Order of Railway Telegraphers, Is not
generally obeyed, and claim to have
plenty of men to fill the places of strik-
ers. Both the Southern and the Alaba-
ma Great Southern, however, are Sc
riously hampered in the movement of
trains.
FREIGHT TRAINS NOT MOVING.
Birmingham, April 13.-President
Powell said: my information shows
that the traffic of the Southern is al
most totally demoralized. The Alaba-
ma Great Northern Is unable to run
freight trains, and only the principal
passenger trains are moving"

M'KINLEY COUNTY.
Believed That the Bill to Undo It Will Not
Pass.

Special to the New Mexican.
Washington, April 13.-Interviews
with leading Republican members of the
house are to the effect that the bill now
pending in the house of representatives
the act of the thirty-third
legislative assembly creating the county
of Mckinley in New Mexico will not
pass although favorably reported by
the committee on territories. The sem
timent seems to be to give New Mexi-
co as large a share of self-government
as possible, and to interfere as little as
possible with territorial legislation. The
favorable report was made by the COM
mittee out Of compliment to Delegate
Perea, who is member of the commit
tee and advocated it's passage.
