Offices to This City from
New Castle.

The general offices OF the Rio Grand
Junction Railway company, which owns
the joint track between this city and
New Castle, will be moved to this city
Saturday.
This will mean that the Office OF sup
erintendent. the clerks in that office, the
general dispatcher with his clerks and
several other men included in the office
force of that company will remove to
this city with their families at once.
F.. h. Rockwell ia the superintendent
Of the road and his offices will be here
after be located in this city.
What has caused this removal OF the
offices OF the joint track to this city
could not be ascertained in railway cir
cles today. However, there are many
changes going forward with the new
owners Of the Rio Grande in the saddle
and while the Rio Grande has no more
Jurisdiction over the joint track than has
the Midland, still it is the Rio Grande
influence back of it.

onded by Anglim. II Is not necessary
to state that these promises were all
violated. for 1t is matter of common
notoriety. Anglim was forced 10 re-

surance that Pullinm of Rico will do
any differently than did Angllm OF
