that a corporation will shortly be

President Leeds. of the Rock Island,

Albuquerque the Gateway.

A special dispatch from New York
TO the Ell Paso Herald says:
Within the present year the trains
of the Rock Island will enter San
Francisco over the Southern Pacific
tracks. The rolling stock for these
trains is now in preparation, and it is
said that they will be in every way up
to the standard of trunk line efficiency
in the eastern field.
1T is surmised by people who know
Rock Island affairs better than others,
that this agreement is purely temper
airy in nature, and will end when the
line between the FL Paso division of
the Rock Island and Albuquerque is
completed. Albuquerque will thence
forth be the gateway through which
Rock Island traffic will find its way to
the coast. The Southern Pacific route
is very roundabout as compared with
the Atchison, and the admittedly
friendly relationship between the Atch-
ison and Rock Island will also conduce
to a thoroughly satisfactory working
agreement for a Pacific route via the
Atchison for Rock Island trains.

An official confirmation has been re

says a Little Rock dispatch. The &C
tual sale was made at the time the
Choctaw passed into the hands of the
Rock Island. The day before the sale
of the Choctaw that road had pur.
chased the Searcy & Des Arc and con.
sequently the Rock Island bought a
line which had not entered into the ne.
%gotiations. A circular has been issued
naming j. F. Holden as traffic man
ager and w. W. Wentz, Jr., general
manager, both being local Rock Island
officials in charge of the Choctaw
lines. The road runs from Searcy to
Des Arc, a distance of twenty-eight
miles.
