SALARY CAUSED THE CHANGE.
James M. Herbert Explains Why He
Left the Denver and Rio Grande.


Denver, December 2S.-James NJ. Her
Grande railroad who is to become gen.
eral manager of the Colorado Southern
railroad and vice-president of the Fort
Worth and Denver City railroad on jan
uary l, returned to Denver from a trip
to Joplin, Mo-, today.
Tonight Mr.. Herbert dictated the follow
ing statement:
Two weeks ago, unsolicited. the office
of vlee-president and general manager
of the Colorado Southern, and vice.
president of the Fort Worth and Denver
City railroad, carrying with 1t some at
traetive features, was rendered me.
asked time to consider. which was grant
ed, following which 1 accepted. There
has been no friction between myself and
the higher Denver and Rio Grande off,
Gals. Salary was the paramount issue
with me.
There Is absolutely no friction between
the Colorado Southern and the Denver
and Rio Grande railroad in this city.
[ have placed by resignation as director
of the Colorado Fuel and Iron company
In the hands of Mr.. McClement, who Is
Mr.. Goulds representative in that COM
pany, for such action as he deems advis-
able"
Mr.. Herbert said further that the report
that Edwin Hawley had in any manner
influenced his appointment with the Haw-
ley roads was unfounded.
ut has been said" continued Mr.. Her
bert, that such was the case and that
the outcome of the recent Colorado Fuel
and Iron company fight prompted this.
There is absolutely not particle of foun-
dation for any such report. l am Mr..
Trumbull's appointee. l never had any
conference with Mr. Hawley and will
have nothing to do with him when l ac-
cept my new position"

TWO SALOONS
ARE BURGLARIzEO
Two Are Entered and Attempt
Made on Third
GOT SUGARS AND MONEY
Burglars Who Have Been Quiet Sew
eral Days Rene Their Efforts.
Believed White Boys
Are Guilty.

The burglars who have been quiet since
the night before Christmas broke out
again Saturday night in an entirely new
line. They burglarized two saloons and
made an attempt at a third. but were
unsuccessful
McLinns saloon, at the corner of Sec
ond avenue and Twenty street. was
burglarized Saturday night of some
money and cigars. 1t is supposed the
burglars were white boys, as three white
boys attempted to burglarize another sa-
loon the same night.
At r. A. Bork's saloon at the corner
of Avenue A and Twenty-fourth street.
about $40 in money and some cigars were
stolen by the burglars, who entered it
Saturday night, or Sunday morning. The
burglary was discovered yesterday
morning a. reported to the police.
Last night all the suspicious looking
negroes and white people hanging around
the neighborhood of these two burglaries
were arrested and sent to the city jail
on charges of lettering.
An attempt was made Sunday morning
early to enter the Office saloon at the
corner of second alley a . Nineteenth,
and window in the rear of the saloon
was broken, but the burglars were fright
ened away before they could get into the
saloon. Three white boys are supposed
to have been connected with this attempt,
as they were seen hanging around the
saloon earlier in the night.

RAILROAD WORLD.

The Wall Street Journal says:
The position of the Louisville and
Nashville is now reasonably clear The
it's stock and In control of the road The
dividend period usually comes in January,
and presumably the date of declaration
will not be changed. The dividend will
be the regular 211 per cent semi-annual,
and 1t is known that no advance in this
rate is likely under present conditions.
1t is the intention of the Atlantic Coast
Line to maintain the per cent dividend
until such time as the rate can be ad-
vanced to per cent with certainty of
its continuance. Meanwhile, the COM
pany will use the surplus for needed i'm
provements and betterments. and the
policy is likely to be "a dollar for divi-
dends and dollar for improvements,
so far as can be seen in the future.
A good deal of interest is felt in the
position of the minority stock, much of
which still appears to be owned by the
western interests who advanced If after
the negotiation with the Atlantic Coast
Line was carried through originally. The
episode of a few days ago in connection
with the Louisville Street railway divi-
dend showed that a good deal OF stock
was still in the hands of these interests
and that they were DESTROYS of advancing
the price The Atlantic Coast Line peo-
pie think that the stock ought to be
worth something like present price on a
per cent dividend basis in view of it's
ability to earn more They do not how
ever, expect to deal with the minority
stock in any way looking towards its
acquisition.
