TRANSFER TO MADE SOON.
MIR. Kirby Has the Necessu-y Col
lateral with Him.


New York. August John II. Kirby
has arrived in New York and has been in
conference with the Santa Fe officials
relative to the transfer of the Gulf, Beau
mont and Kansas City railroad to the Gulf,
Colorado and Santa Fee When seen by The
Post correspondent today he begged to be
excused from affirming the intelligence as
published in The Post some days ago. He
would not. however. make any denial of
the sale of the Kaysee and while the ac-
tual trinsfer has probably not occurred
there is no doubt OF the transaction hav-
ing been made
Mr. Kirby brought with him, 1t has been
learned a large block of stock and bonds
of his road, sufficient to effect an exchange
OF the property. and only the details Of
the transfer are to be decided upon before
1t will be absorbed in the Santa Fe system.
1t cln be further stated that the lat
ter road has every reason TO try to close
the deal as promptly as possible and no
unnecessary delay will be allowed to take
piece. The activity OF the Southern Pa
cihc and other systems at this time In
the way OF acquiring rails and extending
forces the Santa Fe to put itself in as adj
vantaEeous position as possible and the
possession of the Kaysee will be of con-
siderable advantage to 1t in this line

TEXARKANA SITUATION AGAIN
COMMISSION HAS CALLED ANOTHER
HEARING TO CONSIDER II.
discrepancies in the Plan Recently
Submitted Caused IL To He
Set Aside.

Austin, Texas August I'D. G. Wray
of st. Louis, chief clerk OF the South
western association. was here today In con-
ference with Rate Clerk True of the rail-
road commission. 1t seems that the rates
submitted by the traffic manager OF the
Cotton Belt, Mr., Dodge, to the railroad
commission Tuesday to be adopted as a
cure for the Texarkana situation were not
worked out according to the agreement
entered into by the Southwestern lines
at ST. Louis and submitted Monday as
said agreement was explained to the COM
mission. Mr.. Wray. who worked said rates
out. said that he did so on basis sug
gested by the Missouri Pacific traffic au-
Lhorties, By whom the agreement has been
interpreted at variance with Mr.. Dodge
and the Texas railway representatives.
AS understood by Mr.. Dodge and the rail-
road commissioners. the agreement pro-
yides for an increase in distributing rates
! from TeXarkana sufficient to overcome
what advantage may be left said point
In the matter Of inbound interstate rates.
AS interpreted by the Nilsson Pacific and
worked out by Mr.. Wray, it provides for
4 an increase In carload rates only from
Texarkana.
/ The discrepancy caused by this lack OF
understanding In the matter between the
State and interstate lines has caused the
commission to lay the agreement aside
altogether and to call another hearing for
August II for the purpose of once more
considering the matter OF adjusting State
rates so as TO offset the disadvantages
under which certain points labor in COM
garrison with Texarkana. where low inter-
state rates prevail. Two propositions will
be considered at said hearing The first
contemphtes a raise of the distributing
rate from Texarkana to points in the ter
rltory which said city can control owing
to the low rates It enjoys from Interstate
points and the second contemplates a re-
duction OF distributing rates in said ter
rtory equal to the difference between
the sums of the locals through TeXarkana
and the common point rate to said terri
tory, said reduction not to apply TO Tex
arkana itself. As at present defined. the
territory referred TO lies west NJ and In
cludes Denison Sherman. Mckinney aud
Dallas, and extends south along the Cot
ton Belt to Tyler. In connection with this
latter proposition will be considered the
necessity Tor increasing or diminishing
the district In which the adjusted rates
shall apply and for combining the appica-
tion ~ such rates TO the movement oil
treights in the direction in which the
disadvantages complained OF actual,
exist Pending this hearing the appllca-
tiou Of the 25 per cent reduction in State
, ratet on commodities carrying lowe
, rate into Texarkana than to Texas com
, mon points, ordered 10 take effect August
s. will probably he suspended except as
to the territory referred TO above.
